-
As Blue escapes from the fake Cloudbase, a puppeteer's arm can be seen throwing the puppet through the window.
-
The coffee that Captain Blue ordered arrived within six seconds. That's quite some service, but it's highly unlikely that the waiter could have returned to the kitchen, poured the coffee into a cup (assuming they were immediately to hand) and returned to the table in that time.
-
The Score: Had Symphony's dream actually happened, it would have been total victory for the Mysterons. Spectrum: 25 Mysterons: 6.
-
Mysteron Reconstructions: None.
-
Spectrum Losses: 1 Angel Interceptor (in Symphony's dream: 1 Cloudbase, 4 Angel Intereptors. Colonel White, Lieutenant Green, Dr. Fawn, Captains Scarlet, Blue, Ochre, Magenta, rey and Black, Destiny, Harmony, Melody and Rhapsody are killed)
-
Collateral Damage: None.
-
It is never explained what actually caused Symphony's jet to crash in the first place.
-
It seems odd that "the most important position on the base" (ie the radar room) would be given to Captain Magenta who, under the slightest hint of possible annihilation, can't even count to four.
-
While discussing the immenent attack on Cloudbase, Scarlet says that "it had to come". However, it's already been and gone once as the Mysterons tried to destroy Cloudbase with their crystal in "Dangerous Rendezvous".
-
Captain Magenta calls Captain Scarlet "sir", but they are both the same rank.
-
The sound effect used in this episode as the noise the Mysteron flying saucers make when they fire their weapons is the same effect used in The Avengers episode "From Venus With Love" (which aired just over a year before this episode), which was used to signal the death of an astronomer apparently by mysterious aliens.
-
The Score: Half the Mysteron targets are destroyed. Draw. Spectrum: 25 Mysterons: 6.
-
Mysteron Reconstructions: None.
-
Spectrum Losses: None, although there will be a lot of lost dignity and respect for the Spectrum personnel.
-
Collateral Damage: 1 Atlantica Base control tower and associated missiles, 1 Air Force bomber.
-
As the bomber skims the ocean, one of it's engine pods can be seen to break off and remain floating in the water, but in all later shots, it has been reattached.
