    • When Billie goes to Nances as a manicurist and then glamours into Maya, Nance is shocked and says she's dead. Obviously a little time has passed since threw Maya off the balcony so it seems a little odd that he wouldn't have checked on her body! Especially since he was planning to call it a suicide, wouldn't he have called 911 to put his plan into motion?
    • Where exactly did Paige and Billie get the prison issue uniform that fit the real Maya anyway. I mean it could be said that they were laying around from season five when Leo was in jail (pretending to be Jeric) except the uniform, Maya was wearing fit perfectly so it wasn't that one, so again how'd they get it?
    • When Karl comes through the door and swings at Leo, Piper immediately freezes him. However, Leo continues to be unfrozen. While there have been instances in past where that has occurred all those times he was next to her (not that it should have mattered then either). In this case she froze directly at Leo. So there should be no reason he didn't freeze as well.
    • TRIVIA: This episode features the song "Hallow" by Four Star Mary.
    • TRIVIA: There are no demons in this episode.
    • When Maya sees Piper technically she should see her own face as she is not one of the Halliwell family. However she does not even seem affected when she sees Piper as she should be when presented with a twin she didn't know she had.
    • When Nance and Maya are on the balcony, a building is visible on the side. Yet when Piper says to Paige to orb to the alley underneath, a well lit street with cars moving back and forth is shown instead of an alley during Maya's fall. The same then happens during Nance's fall.
    • TRIVIA: This is one of only two episodes with "Piper" in the title. There is one episode with "Paige" in the title, one with "Prue" and four with "Phoebe".
    • When Paige is telling Billie off, after she almost blew the house up, Billie first has her arms straight, when her backview is visible. When the camera switches to Paige's view and Billie has her arm angled to her wrist, the next shot is correct but when it's shown from Paige's view again Billie moves her arms. However, next shot her back is shown again with one arm angled to her wrist.
    • TRIVIA: This is the second time Piper freezes someone before he tries to hit Leo's face. The first time was in season 2 where she froze Dan. Although Leo moved his head in season 2, preventing Dan from hitting him - this time he took the hit.
    • Piper freezes Nance and then unfreezes only his head, allowing him to talk. However, he is only a human, not a demon, so it should have cut off the blood supply to his head and prevented oxygen from going into his lungs.
    • After the explosion Billie causes, Paige runs upstairs and starts to clean. She hands Billie a metal statue and Billie places it on the table. When the camera goes back to Paige, the top of the statue is visible & moving around as Paige is talking.
    • How could a mattress save Maya from such a fall? She fell from numerous stories down and the impact would have either caused her to bounce off the mattress and land on the concrete or just from falling on the mattress it would've seriously injured her, if not killed her.
    • TRIVIA: Paige found Maya's photo in 415 magazine, which is where Prue used to work.
    • TRIVIA: Phoebe & Piper mention that Darryl is now on the East Coast.

    • The event Billie and the sisters refer to about a ghost helping them to make a pawn shop owner confess a crime, is from the season 2 episode "Ex Libris".
    • The classic movie "All About Eve" is referred to during the last scene in a conversation between Piper, Paige, and Leo.
    • Title: Run, Piper, Run
      This episode title is an allusion to the Tom Hanks film Forrest Gump due to one of the most memorable lines of the film being, "Run, Forrest, Run!" and also a reference to the film "Run, Lola, Run". Perhaps both of those allusions themselves allude to the song "Run, Rabbit, Run", which was written by Noel Gay and Ralph Butler for Flanagan and Allen. Bud Flanagan sang it in the musical "The Little Dog Laughed" (London, October 1939). Another version of the song was later current as "Run, Adolf, Run".
