Andrea Anders doesn't appear in this episode. (edit) This episode aired out of production order. Early spoiler reports had Michael Landes playing Joey's nemesis, but he was played by Bob Odenkirk when it aired. Perhaps these parts were reshot? (edit)

Michael: All my friends have crushes on you, Mom.
Gina: Yeah, well, I'm like, the third girl those guys have seen... (edit) Joey: What's more important, your space or your mother's happiness?
Michael: My space. And I had to pretend to think about it. (edit) Bobbie: Look, you are screwing up your career! You don't show up for an audition, you scream at a casting director...
Joey: Well, the only reason I did that is cause he's deaf.
Bobbie: Who told you that?
Joey: This actor. I see him at all my auditions. He gives me pointers.
Bobbie: Oh, wait a second. Is he the reason why you went into an audition, you threw away your script and you start barking?
Joey: Yeah. Did I get that part?
Bobbie: Oh, Joey, he's messing with your head.
Joey: What?
Bobbie: Yeah, your little friend is shoving crap up your pooper. Joey... you're such a sweet, naive guy. But you can't let people take advantage of you.
Joey: I really liked him. I can't believe this.
Bobbie: I can't believe they take the fat out of my ass and put it in my lips, but they do. (edit) Joey: Look, Gina, I know Michael's sick. But this is my apartment. I need some space.
Gina: Look, why don't you just go to my place? You can stay there till he gets better.
Joey: I don't wanna do that.
Gina: There's lasagna in the fridge and I have Cinemax.
Joey: Get me the keys! (edit) Brian: I'm Brian Michael David Scott.
Joey: That's a lot of names...
Brian: I'm a lot of actor... (edit)

Goof: In the scene where Joey first meets Brian, the Apple Cinema Display on the desk spontaneously turns in to an eMac and back again between shots. (edit) On Joey's Magna Doodle: a scene from Aesop's Fable, "The Fox and the Grapes." (The fox, snapping at the grapes, just out of reach). (edit) Goof: When Joey goes to see his agent, we can see the paper pad and the pen move in between shots. (edit)

Nemesis was the Roman God of retribution and is also a rollercoaster at Alton Towers, a theme park in England. (edit)
