Notes

add »
Jeff Rake is again listed as an executive producer at the end of the show despite his derpature after episode 10. This episode (or at least parts of it) was written as part of the early season. It was put into production and casting went out back in late July under the title "It Girls", but for some reason the episode was pushed back and retooled. It is not clear whether or not some of the scenes involving the "It Girls" storyline were filmed beforehand or not. (edit)
Rene Auberjonois is added to the opening credits. (edit)
