Notes

• Running fired torpedo count: 61.  This contradicts the hard limit set in “The Cloud” of 38.
• A direct sequel to the episode “Fair Haven“.
• A working title for this episode was “Daoine Sidhe”.  That is Irish, which translated means “The People of the Mounds”.  Why?  No idea.
• The only time Voyager’s registry is read out loud in an episode (NCC-74656).
• Several of the Fair Haven actors reprised their (holodeck) roles from that episode.
• Milo was played by Ian Abercrombie.  He was also the Abbott in Voyager’s “Someone to Watch over Me“.
• The woman who played Edith Mulchaey (Bairbre Dowling) used to be married to Colm Meaney (DS9 & TNG’s O’Brien).
• This episode was nominated for an Emmy Award for Outstanding Music Composition for a Series.
