From CHiPs Online: After Jon calls in the explosion, you can see a tow truck from "Danny's Tow Service" which was featured in Tow Truck Lady. Here are some Fun Facts from the director, Phil Bondelli: "The ship at the end of the show on which the chase took place was used in WWII as a refrigerator ship for the transportation of dead servicemen." "The way the truck exploded at the end of the show was Plan B. We had originally planned to have the truck drive off a dock, explode in the air, and then sink in the water. However, when we were ready to shoot the scene, a boat pulled into the dock and we lost that location." "The inventors of the rescue signal device used in the show were in the process of trying to sell it to actual law enforcement agencies at the time. I don't know if they were successful." How come we don't see any of the emergency transmitters in future episodes? Did Grossie ruin it for everyone? The cargo holds and engine room in the abandoned ship seem pretty well lit. Just as Getraer, Ponch, and Jon arrest the suspect, the bike rider asks if he can help. Why didn't he ask two minutes ago when the guy escaped from the ship? He just watched. One suspect is arrested in the end. Wasn't there more than one in the warehouse? What happened to the rest? Ponch and Jon find Baricza in the engine room together. Shouldn't they have split up?
(After hearing the lousy dispatcher over the radio) Ponch: We have to listen to her all day? Jon: New dispatcher, now that's a REAL communication problem.
In the opening, Jon and Ponch luck out. They land on mattresses when they crash.
