Notes

add »
Briggs does not appear in this episode except in the opening tape sequence and briefing, due to Steven Hill's off-screen problems with the production staff. The scenes were filmed far in advanced of the rest of the production. (edit)

Quotes

add »
Larya: My heart? There is no cure?
Rollin: We're sorry.
Larya: Do not be. You have given me a gift even greater than life. You have permitted me to... to see beyond my death. (edit)
Larya: There is no tyrant like one’s own doctor. (edit)

Trivia

add »
Faking the train ride with hydraulics, tape and film is very impressive, but it really would be a 'mission impossible' to stage a crash with the inertia and potential energy needed to throw passengers against the wall of a train car that isn't moving. (edit)
