    • Number 47: On the security system of the storage facility you can see the point SW9847.
    • Towards the beginning Dixon, Marshall, Weiss, Vaughn, Sydney and Jack are all in the conference room talking about the virus the Covenant has. Sydney says that it is a level four pathogen which is the highest classification. Viruses are actually classified into groups followed by a Roman numeral. There are three categories: DNA viruses (groups one and two), RNA viruses (groups three-five), and Reverse transcribing virus (groups six-seven). Ebola falls under RNA viruses in group five. Also in group five are rabies, measles, and mumps.
    • Marshall makes Vaughn into a midget! When editing the details on the Interpol database entry, he enters Vaughn's height as 1.60 meters. This is a common problem with lazy scriptwriters who have no conception of the metric system. 1.60 meters translates to 5'3, and the actor portraying Vaughn is in actuality 6' or 1.83 meters.
    • Again in the scene where Sydney jumps from a high floor into a pool we expect to see two things happening, but they don't. First of all such a jump would force a lot of the pool's water to jump out as if a bomb exploded. That does not happen and we can only see the water's reaction as if someone from the ground level had just taken a plain dive. Also such jump with the above consequences should have first splashed all of the surrounding guests and even if that did not happen, it should have made them curious about the strange woman that has just jumped from a building floor inside the pool, half-naked, in the middle of a party. Yet we see no reaction and a man just gives her a towel as if everything is all right.
    • Goof: When Sydney steals the diamond necklace out of the hotel she jumps off the balcony into the pool and returns to the van where she shows the necklace which is around her ankle. However, in the shot where she jumps off the balcony there is no necklace around her ankle. In the first shot in the pool it isn't there either, but in the second shot in the pool the necklace suddenly appears around her ankle. However in the pool it was around her left ankle, in the van it is around her right ankle.

    • Sydney (To Vaughn): You never should have betrayed me. (Sydney stabs Vaughn)
    • Sydney: Why did the NSC want me in on this? Lauren: I wanted you. Michael said you were the best.
    • Sydney: What peaked his interest was hearing Simon Walker call me Julia and then kiss me like his prom date.
    • Marshall (Holding a machine that could reveal the sex of his baby): You know, I could find out right now. Carrie: Touch me with that thing and you die.
    • Weiss (About Sydney, To Michael): Whatever she just did, man, she's good. She is really good.
    • Michael: I'm losing the signal. Weiss: I'm aiming the mike right at her. Michael: I should have worn the ring. Weiss: Get over yourself. Okay? No one aims the mike like I do.
    • Sydney: You know, peach isn't really in this season. Michael: I heard peach was the new green. Sydney: I thought beige was the new green. Michael: No beige is the new peach. Sydney: Okay.
    • Jack: We can assume what they've stolen is a precursor agent requiring further synthesis. Weiss: Okay, does everyone here speak science? Marshall: Yeah. Weiss: No, Marshall, they don't.
    • Sloane (To Lauren): I must admit, I was concerned for you when Sydney resurfaced. I remembered seeing her with Vaughn: their relationship reminded me of my own with my late wife. It was the kind of bond that even death cannot sever. Hmmm, well apparently I misjudged.
    • Sydney: I can't afford to make a distinction between professional and personal - not in my life. I mean, this job took two years from me. Everything is personal.
    • Jack (To Sydney): When you compelled the NSC to release me from prison, you told me you'd done so because... you needed your father; that you needed my strength. Twelve months in solitary would have an effect on anyone; something that allowed me to stay focused was your... strength. Don't lose it now...
