  • When Rygel was dead, Stark linked with him to bring him back, and met with Zhaan, who is watching over them. edit »
  • The Scorpius clone still resides in the head of this John (John-black). Is it still in the head of the John on Moya? edit »
  • Xhalax Sun was forced to kill her mate, Talyn (Aeryn's father) because of the visit to Aeryn while she was a child (that was on the vidchip). edit »
  • The jungle, in particular its vines, have healing properties, that may have been able to heal Xhalax Sun, depending on how Crais shot her and what they did with the body. edit »
  • Crais' true motive is finally revealed – he commandeered Talyn in Family Ties because he knew the Peacekeepers would be after him and that his only chance for help was to use Talyn for leverage. edit »
  • Anthony Simcoe and Gigi Edgley are credited but do not appear. edit »
  • Dominique Sweeney, who played the two Colartas Thek and Kek, played similar creatures in season two's Out of Their Minds. edit »
  • Master alien guest star Thomas Holesgrove returns in this episode, playing the Colarta Vek. edit »
  • Xhalax: Is that why you're sparing me?! Because I'm your mummy?!
    Aeryn: No. Because, with that wound, out here, you will die. Alive, you're potential leverage.
    Xhalax: Regulation field op procedure insists you terminate all hostile personal on point of contact. Eliminate the threat! And when I'm dead, you can name your Prowler after me! edit »
  • Aeryn: I am right, aren't I? We let you live, and you come and you find us again.
    Xhalax: What, do you expect me to lie, to beg for my life? Crais is right. I will hunt you down and I will kill you.
    Aeryn: Goodbye mother. edit »
  • Crichton: OK, welcome to the butthole of the universe. edit »
  • Crichton: We've left a trail Stevie Wonder can follow.

    Crichton substitutes the proverbial blind man with the internationally famed blind singer Stevie Wonder. edit »
