Greg Grunberg was billed as Special Guest Star in this episode. (edit) The opening scenes of this episode, including Sydney's venture through the corn-field, were clearly shot well-before the other scenes used - there are a few shots where Jennifer Garner is evidently not pregnant (for instance there's a shot of her belly when she raises the shotgun she acquires to shoot one of Vaughn's captors).
However, from these scenes on, Jennifer is clearly pregnant, even though Sydney is not supposed to be (noticeably, at least) until the final scene of the episode (see in particular the party scene later on in the episode where Syd is holding a sort of hand-scarf that conveniently hides her belly from a side-view). (edit) This episode first aired in Australia on Channel 7 on the 17th of June 2007. (edit) After four years on the show, Michael Vartan's character, Vaughn, is shot to death halfway through the episode. (edit) Greg Grunberg and Mia Maestro have been removed from the credits. Rachel Nichols, Elodie Bouchez and Balthazar Getty have been added to the credits. (edit)

Vaughn: …Yeah!, you’re going to be an amazing mum… And I’m going to be a disaster, I’ve never changed a diaper.
Sydney: Neither have I, we’re going to have to call Marshall for help. (edit) Renee: How did you find me?
Sydney: I know everything.
Renee: Then you should have walked away.
Sydney: You don't know me very well. (edit) Sydney: I just need to know how you feel. Is it something you want?
Vaughn: The truth?
Sydney: Off course.
Vaughn: What we do, the things we see every day . . . honestly, no. I . . . I didn't think this was what I wanted. I mean, bringing a baby into this world that's so messed up. I just ... I just assumed that I'd wait, that we'd wait.
Sydney: For ...?
Vaughn: For things to ... be safe, or at least safer. But looking at you, all I can think about is what our kid is gonna be like. And I ... I'm not worried about the world. I just, I can't wait to meet this new little person. (edit) Marshall: He's not gonna find Sydney and Vaughn, not from what I gave him. I encrypted Vaughn's files, 4096-bit - it'll take him years. I mean, he's an ass. Deal with it. (edit) Dean: Then I have no choice. I am now officially classifying him a fugitive and your daughter an accomplice. Now if you want me to show her any leniency, find her and tell me where she is.
Jack: (coldly) Maybe you should try Mexico City. (edit)

Signs appearing in the episode should be in Italian (they are in Rome), however they are wrong. When they meet Lehman, a sign over a door says "Esito" instead of "Uscita" (Exit). At the railway, a sign says "Alto" instead of "Stop". (edit) This is the last time Director Chase, who was played by Angela Basset throughout season 4, is directly mentioned in Alias. The last time she actually appeared on the show was season 4. (edit) Sydney and Vaughn name their child
Isabelle Bristow Vaughn. (edit) Goof: At the train tracks were Curtis shoots Vaughn, he fires a total of 3 bursts, yet only the first one makes holes in Vaughn’s body. (edit)
