Deleted Scene: Lex and Desiree are in the wine cellar having a moment of intimacy. (edit) Music: "A Little Less Conversation" by JXL vs Elvis, "Truth Or Dare" by N.E.R.D., "Hot In Herre" by Nelly ,"My Friends Over You" by New Found Glory, and "Tomorrow" by Avril Lavigne. (edit) "Tomorrow" by Avril Lavigne was heard during the last scene of this episode. Presumably Lavigne is contracted to Warner - the WB music supervisors also used another Avril Lavigne song in Birds of Prey in episode 1-3 "Prey for the Hunter", called "Anything But Ordinary." (edit) When Krista Allen enters the classroom, we hear Nelly's "Hot in Herre" song. Nelly and Sam Jones filmed the movie Snipes in 2001, prior to Sam's casting as Pete in the series. This movie - like Sam's previous one Zig Zag - is set for a 2002 video/movie release. (edit) The animal film shown in Biology must be popular since it also appears in the movie Baby Boy starring Tyrese. (edit)

Clark: What would you say if I told you Miss Atkins a.k.a. Alison Sanders, showed up at my loft last night and... tried to seduce me.
Chloe: I'd say you were living the voyeuristic fantasy of every male student in this school. Clark, she just married Lex. Why would she possibly be interested in you?
Clark: Thanks. (edit) Chloe: (to Clark in jail) Hey, sorry we didn't have time to bake a file in a cake.
Lana: So how are you holding up?
Clark: Besides being accused of being a serial arsonist and trying to sleep with my best friend's wife. I'm great. (edit) Chloe: This is quickly going from merely nauseating to genuinely disturbing. (edit) Chloe: Clark, she was in the throes of major passion when the meteors hit. If her pheromone levels were enhanced, she could get a guy to do whatever she wants. Lucky for us, Clark Kent seems to be immune to some members of the opposite sex. (edit) Pete: Every year the incredibly aged Mrs. Kowalski kicks off biology class with an ancient sex ed film.
Clark: Who told you that, your brother?
Pete: No, my dad. (edit)

When Desiree smashes the bottle of alcohol on Lex's back and sets it on fire it burns bright orange. Alcohol burns blue almost clear. There might have been a small amount of orange from the shirt burning, but that wouldn't start for several seconds. (edit) When Sheriff Ethan runs to get Clark out of the jail area when the fire has started, he unlocks the door, in the second or so it takes the camera to follow him, the wall the gate locks to is clearly visible... with no lock plate attached to it. (edit) Toward the end, Clark prevents Desiree's escape by using his heat vision on the door handle. Even if she didn't know how hot it was upon sight, there's no way Desiree should have held it as long as she did. Her natural autoreflexive action should have been much faster against something bearing such high degrees of heat. (edit) Jonathan tells Martha they don't have air conditioning because of the electric bill. However, in Drone, Clark says Martha is addicted to the Discovery Channel. The Kents can't afford an air conditioner but they have cable TV? (editor's note: of course, they may have less money now than they did then...) (edit) Why does Clark use his heat vision to stop the bullet at the end of the episode? Wasn't that just a tad risky, seeing as how he had just acquired that ability and really had little to no experience using it? A great time to experiment - Lex could have been killed! A simple superspeed run-and-block from Clark would have sufficed. How did he get so good (amazing split-second, pinpoint precision heat vision) so fast, anyway? (edit)
