Crais: As you can see, I am unarmed.
D'Argo: (handing his Qualta blade to Zhaan) As you can see, I am also unarmed. (he punches Crais in the gut) (edit) Crichton: (as he watches the moon explode) Hey you bastards. John Crichton was here. (edit) Zhaan: The instant I committed murder, I sacrificed my right to exist. Since then, I view every microt as a generous, yet undeserved, gift from the Goddess. (edit) (Crichton's first attempts at leaving an audio postcard for his father are less than successful)
Crichton: (frustrated) Why don't I just start screaming and leave him a really happy memory? (edit) (Crichton rejects Chiana's offer of herself.)
Chiana: (pleading) You saved my life.
Crichton: Pass it on.
Chiana: What?
Crichton: When someone else needs it, return the favor. You pass it on. (edit)

"Tre bawk ru fishalto chenias prami bukeko!" (it doesn't sound like it, but it was written like that in the script!) – an insult at Rygel from D'Argo; something about his corpse and a bodily function.
(edit)
"...Ka dare-e sincono, apudax a-helio, frotar li pluro sincono." – a Delvian blessing performed by Zhaan; roughly "In the eyes of the Goddess, all are equal, all are worthy".
(edit)
Scorpius mentioned that the security officer assigned to M'Lee was missing, hinting that she had already started devouring the crew.
(edit)
We first heard Aeryn, Rygel and D'Argo speak in their native tongues briefly in "A Human Reaction."
(edit)
We learn in this episode that Hynerian physiology is not compatible with the mind-reading techniques employed by the Aurora Chair. Apparently, Hynerians die almost instantly if exposed.
(edit)
Crichton: (just before he and D'Argo space themselves) Kirk and Spock, Abbott and Costello.
Two famous duos, Captain Kirk and Lieutenant Spock from the sci-fi tv show Star Trek, and the two comedians and William "Bud" Abbott and Lou Costello, who performed in radio skits, movies, and tv. (edit) Crichton: (when Zhaan says they have all become like family) Well, it's a Jerry Springer kind of family.
Jerry Springer is the host of a tv talk show famous for having dysfunctional guests, who often choose to settle their differences with fights on camera. (edit)
