Notes
- The character of Liam Bilby was played here by Nick Tate. However, Tate lost the role to an actor by the name of Charles Hallahan. Hallahan sadly died a couple of days before the episode was to start shooting, so they brought in Tate to play the role after all.
- The plot line of this story is followed up in the seventh season episode “Prodigal Daughter“, which focuses on Ezri Dax.
- There is a loose reference to the events of “Let He Who Is Without Sin” in this episode.
- Features the second (and final) appearance of Gelnon the Vorta, who was also seen in “One Little Ship“.
