Trivia

add »
"Semper fi [delis]" (always faithful) is the motto of the United States Marine Corps. As an ex-Navy man, it's unlikely Frank would be tossing this phrase around the way he does in this episode. (edit)
Frank is an ex-Navy seal with the rank of Lieutenant, yet when he wears his dress whites, the shoulder bars have four stripes, which indicates a Captain. (edit)
Trivia: We find out what the B in "Frank B" stands for - Bartholomew. (edit)
Are they just finding out Frank's middle name is Bartholomew? Since they selected him from a mental institution for a serious project like that, shouldn't they know all info on him, so how could they not have known something simple like his middle name. (edit)
Olga says that she has never seen Frank so eager to Backstep. How could she compare his behavior to previous backsteps if a backstep erases everything and she couldn't possible know how he acted before any of them? (edit)
