Trivia
The Show
This episode apparently has been pulled from the syndication package, as it hits a little too close to home for 9-11, dealing with a possible bomber at a government building.
Behind the Scenes
The episode's director, Sutton Roley, plays the small role of a Judge in this episode.
Allusions and References
In the earlier episode "The Ninety-Second War", a brass nameplate beared the Governor's name. This episode confirms it: for only the second time in the series, the Governor's name is mentioned, this time in a demand made by Barnard Hughes's character: 'I want to speak to the Governor...Governor Paul Jamison!'
