• The Season 3 opening introductory "split-shot" of Salami is taken from this episode. [edit]

• DVD goof: At the end, when Reeves takes his bottle of prescription painkillers into his office bathroom, we don't hear him flushing them down the toilet as he did during the episode's original run. [edit]

• Reeves: (to reporter) You know, you ask way too many questions, and I don't feel like answering them, so I think you should go.
  Reporter: You used to play for the Bulls, right?
  Reeves: Yeah, and we had a trick in the locker room for certain reporters...you wanna see it?
  Reporter: (leaving hurriedly) Thanks for your time!
  Reeves: I didn't think so!
  [edit]
• Sybil: (about Salami) He got those pills from a doctor you sent him to?
  Reeves: Do me a favor, can the righteous indignation!
  Sybil: Damn it, Ken, don't tell me to can anything! [edit]
• (at drug hearing)
  Chairman: Did you take amphetamines prior to the Russell game?
  Coolidge: Yes.
  Reeves: WHAT!? [edit]
