- When Helena approaches Reese as he's getting into his car, he hits the remote unlock button. However, the driver's side window is all the way down, making it pointless to lock the car in the first place, and unnecessary to unlock it either. edit »
- Barbara says that she's looking for Al Hawke by running the composite photo against "surveillance pictures" from "points of entry" via the computer, but earlier when Dinah entered and we saw the computer doing its job, it was just bringing up police mugshots. edit »
- Also, Hawke that we hear here sounds nothing like Hawke in "Sins of the Mother." His voice is deeper, and he doesn't speak in the Zen-like dialogue either. And yet everyone is sure the "new" Hawke really is Hawke. edit »
- The physical builds of Mitch Pileggi and Stephen McHattie are substantially different - Pileggi is much larger. Plastic surgery wouldn't account for the extra height and weight that Al magically acquired after his burn damage. edit »
- Barbara: It looks like our wall-walker's nueroelectrical pulse activates some kind of molecular dispersion. That's what enables him to pass through inanimate objects.
Helena: And here I just thought he was really skinny. edit » - Helena: It's just hard for me to picture you and Hawke being from the same family.
Reese: Yeah, well, my mother's black.
Helena: Yeah, obviously. What I mean is, there you are being brought up in well, you know, "the family", and somehow you find your way to being a cop.
Reese: I guess I got seduced by the high pay and community respect.
Helena: Or maybe Dad pissed you off real good. edit » - Barbara: You got your new comm set?
Dinah: Are you kidding me? I slept in this thing.
Helena: I know you did, heard the snoring. Might want to turn the mic off next time. edit » - Helena: What's the matter? Hospitals make you nervous? Or are you just allergic to the lead-lined walls?
Barbara: Actually, it's not an allergy. You see, the molecular structure of the lead will impede his molecular dispersion and...
Helena: Do you mind?
Barbara: Right, sorry. edit » - Helena: Guess I finally found the right wall to throw someone into. edit »
- Reese: (to Helena) Does it always have to end with you throwing a guy into a wall? edit »
- Helena: Frankie, have you considered you might actually be too stupid to run a major crime family? edit »
- Frankie: What is this, some sort of crime-fighting date? edit »
- Helena: (Dinah's) dangerous when she's pissed, huh? edit »
- German title: "Loyalität" (= "Loyalty") edit »
- Mia Sara and Ian Abercrombie don't appear in this episode. edit »
- For whatever reasons the producers recast Al Hawke with Mitch Pileggi - he was originally played by Stephen McHattie in "Sins of the Mother". The explanation given is "plastic surgery" (but see Goofs). edit »
- There is currently no allusions. Add allusions!
