(edit) The song heard during the FBI raid at the motel is "The Man Comes Around" from the 2002 album American IV: the Man Comes Around by Johnny Cash, which was released just 10 months before his death. (edit) Due to the writers strike this was the last episode completed for this season. Four more episodes were ordered but never completed. (edit)

Derek: (watching young Kyle play) Throws pretty good for a five year old, huh? Your father always had a nice arm.
John: (tearing up) How'd you know?
Derek: Every time I look at you I see him. Besides, your mom's his type. Happy Birthday. (edit) Derek: (about the park) It's beautiful here, isn't it? Y'know, you stay here long enough you fool yourself into thinking this is how it's always gonna be. Then you remember what this place'll look like when it's on fire and you realize you'll do whatever it takes to keep from watching it burn again. (edit) John: (about the dead guy) Did he say anything? A name, a location?
Cameron: He said very little, and then he was quiet. (edit) Sarah: (to Charlie) Do you remember what you saw here? What we destroyed, who destroyed it? The FBI can't protect us, you can't protect us. If one of them follows you here - not the FBI, one of them - you'll have killed us. So take your wife, get as far away from here as you can. Forget me. Forget John. Just go. (edit) Ellison: If Sarah is alive, and I believe she is, we are working in a realm where much, perhaps anything is possible- robots, soldiers from the future, Skynet.
Charlie: If Sarah were alive, I'm sure she'd like to hear you say that. (edit)

At the beginning of the episode a guy is playing a video game; Bungie's Halo 3 for the Xbox 360. The same game was also played in the previous episode. (edit) Goof: During the raid when you see the final FBI agent land in the water he is supposed to be sinking to the bottom of the pool. However, he is breathing in air bubbles and it is clear the shot was just played back in reverse. (edit) John mentions Moore's Law. Every two years the number of transistors on a chip double. He continues about "the guy who founded Intel" quoting this law. Gordon E. Moore, co-founder of Intel, phrased in 1965, that the complexity of a circuit doubles every year. In 1975 he corrected it to "every two years". (edit) Goof: In the first scene in the park John is eating a green ice cream bar but when they change the angle he is eating a yellow bar. (edit) Judgement Day is revealed to be April 21, 2011 at the beginning of the episode. The last known date for Judgement Day was given during T3, which was July 24, 2004. Prior to that it was August 29, 1997. (edit)

The Smiths:

The Smiths were an (often melancholic) English Indie-Rock-Band active from 1982 to 1987. (edit) Hatful of Hollow:

Hatful of Hollow is a compilation album released in 1984 by The Smiths. (edit) Revelations:

The biblical verse that Agent Ellison recites is an amalgamation of Revelation 6:1 and Revelation 6:8, from the King James Version of the New Testament. (edit) Los Niños Héroes:

At Enrique's nephew's house hangs a sword with the inscription Los Niños Héroes. Los Niños Héroes (the "Boy Heroes" or "Heroic Cadets") were six teenage military cadets who died defending Mexico at Mexico City's Chapultepec Castle (then serving as the Mexican army's military academy) from invading U.S. forces in the September 13, 1847 Battle of Chapultepec. Their commanders, General Nicolás Bravo and General José Mariano Monterde, had ordered them to fall back from Chapultepec but the cadets did not; instead, they resisted the invaders until they were killed, with accounts maintaining that the last survivor leapt from Chapultepec Castle wrapped in the Mexican flag to prevent it from being taken by the enemy. The cadets are honored by an imposing monument at the entrance to Chapultepec Park; and the name Niños Héroes, along with the cadets' individual names, are commonly given to streets, squares and schools across the country. For many years they appeared on the MXP $5000 banknote, and they currently appear on the MXN $50 coin. Metro Niños Héroes the Mexico City Metro is also named after them. (edit)
