Notes
- Running Decon Gel Scene Appearances: T’Pol (2), Trip (1), Hoshi (1), Malcolm (1). There were none this episode.
- There are only seven actors in this episode. No guests, no background characters. Just the Enterprise crew, and Mayweather isn’t even seen, just heard. I believe it’s the only Star Trek episode in any series to do this.
- The bottle of bourbon was named “Dorton’s Best”, which is a reference to a production staffer named Louise Dorton.
- One of two episodes of Enterprise with no scenes on the bridge. The other is “Carbon Creek“.
