- Look carefully at the blow dart in Mr. West's neck. You can see a small amount of putty holding it in place. edit »

- Commercial breaks: Veda after she darts Jim, Singh through the cell bars, Jim lying on the ground, the Wanderer departs. edit »
- A greater effort was made to attract big-name guest stars to the West set. The second season would see, in addition to Karloff, Sammy Davis, Jr., Peter Lawford, Robert Duvall, Ida Lupino and Agnes Moorehead, among others. edit »
- With the addition of color came enhancements to Conrad and Martin's wardrobes. edit »
- An escape route was also installed into the train car. The fireplace rigging was installed. edit »
- The agents' train was modified for the second season. A large metal structure that held the lights was removed. This was in place to hold the lights steady while the illusion of movement was created by jiggling the set. It was special effects man Tim Smyth who decided to simulate the movement henceforth simply by jiggling fishing line connected with the curtains. edit »

Chandra: What?
Jim: X-51!
Mr. Singh: Oh ripping, Mr. West, ripping. One of those ultra-ultra weapons your chaps are always so keen on developing, uh? edit » - Veda: Are you all right, Mr. West?
Jim: I always feel a trifle faint when I’m bitten by… a cobra? Shouldn’t I be dead. edit » - Artie: For the last time, John, if I seem a little bit irritated it’s not because I’ve lost two games of checkers in a row.
John: Three, was it not?
Artie: Okay, three! edit » - Singh: As our guest he should be here enjoying the entertainment.
Cupta: That’s true, Papa, but perhaps Mr. West is… indisposed.
Singh: Nonsense. He always struck me as the kind of man who refused to be indisposed. edit » - Jim: Whatever you do, don’t go in there. There’s a tiger in there.
Artie: Awww… (opens door) There’s a tiger in there!
Jim: Nooo… edit »
