      • At Mac Tone's wake you can see that some of the equipment boxes read "Cormac, son of Conchobar". This is a reference to Cormac Cond Longas, the son of the legendary King of Ulster Conchobar Mac Nessa, who is meant in turn to be connected to the mythology of the Witchblade as Cathain's lover.

      ADD NOTES
      • The DVD release of this episode includes a mini featurette of Gabriel talking about the Witchblade. He says that when Sara handed it to him and he held it, he began having visions, and the connection that he always felt for Sara grew. He says that his consciousness has been expanded by the experience. Could this be a clue as to how Irons was able to possess him in the final episode "Ubique"? Edit
      • For the first time, the Witchblade changes as Sara wears it from the gauntlet into something resembling a set of brass knuckles. This new form is much more reminiscent of the Witchblade's appearance as commonly seen in the comic book, since as drawn the Witchblade turns into tendrils wrapping all over Sara's body, which tends to shred her clothes, as well. Edit
      • The "character" Cyberfaust is introduced in this episode. Edit

      • Vicky: (referring to Ian) I think he's kind of cute. I like those swarthy guys. Sara: Yeah, swarthy, psychotic, bipolar hardbodies, what a treat. Vicky: Well, he's got that look, like he can just walk on water. Sara: Well, he can definitely walk through walls, because I have no idea how he got in here. Edit
      • Vicky: (referring to Ian) Who's the pirate? Sara: Just some guy I know. Vicky: Yeah? What's he doing around here? Sara: Proselytizing. Vicky: Hey, big word! Sara: I know bigger ones. Edit
      • Ian: (on the telephone) Hello, Sara. Sara: What a surprise. You get tired of lurking? Ian: I do prefer to commune with you in person. (Ian steps out from behind a pillar) Sara: Travelling at the speed of dark again?! Edit

      • Dr Granger: If you look into the abyss, the abyss looks into you. This actually is a paraphrase of a quote from psychologist and philosoper Friedrich Nietzsche, "When you look into an abyss, the abyss also looks into you." Edit
      • When Sara tries to sell the Witchblade to Gabriel, she says that he couldn't wait to get it last time. The last time she refers to took place in the first season episode "Diplopia", which never occurred for Gabriel, since Sara reset time to save Danny. Edit
