Trivia

Goof: Opening Off-Synched:
In the Adult Swim airing of this episode the music is about 1 second slower than the video in the beginning of the theme song. (edit)
Goof: When Hohenhiem is kneeling in the graveyard looking at the Rockbell's headstones, the 'R' in Sara Rockbell's name isn't capitalized. Her name is shown as "Sara rockbell". (edit)
In the original Japanese version Al always said the opening statement. However, the US version was changed to have Ed say the new opening statement instead. (edit)
This episode marks the first appearance of Hohenheim Elric. (edit)

"A very special episode"
Ed and Al are on the run from the military. It basicly ends with Ed, Al, Winry, Cheska, Roy, Hawkeye, and some of the others from the military are all by the river. Also you get to see Ed and Al's dad for the first time.
