Trivia[edit | edit source]
- This episode marks the end of 'New Better Cheryl'
- This episode is dedicated in loving memory of Ron Leibman
- Ray's absence is questionable seeing as he is the one with a pilot's license and him not being part of the mission (or episode) is left unclear.
- During Win Lee's first phone call, he speaks to someone called "Yuri". This is possibly a reference to Yuri Orlov, the weapons dealing protagonist of Lord of War.
- This episode is an homage to "Bloodsport". The room the fights are held in is similar & the second fighter Cyril fights is similar to Chong Li.
- This episode is also a homage to Enter the Dragon (1973)
- Another Glenn Close movie reference mentioned during the exchange between Conway and Pam is 'Hook'. Close was almost unrecognizable as Gutless.
