Guest star Gia Carides is the real-life wife of Anthony LaPaglia. (edit) The song played at the end as mother and child reunite is Little Green by Joni Mitchell. (edit) The end of the episode featured an alert for missing child Sabrena Beck. Her disappearance remains unsolved (more info). (edit)

(Jack and Martin find Nell hiding under her father's desk.)
Jack Malone: What are you doing under there?
Nell Clausen: I'm not sure.
Jack Malone: (Martin leans down.) This is Agent Fitzgerald.
Martin Fitzgerald: Hi.
Nell Clausen: Nice to meet you.
Jack Malone: You want to come out here and lie to me some more? (edit) Tara Patterson: Why do we even have assemblies? I could have been studying for that calculus test this morning, which by the way, I totally failed. (edit)

Tara overdosed three and a half months before her disappearance and was taken to the hospital. Tests done at that time should have revealed her condition. (edit) In a typical Trace flashback, we see what happens when Mrs. Patterson finds out that Tara is taking the homework drug that she got from "some guy". Mrs. Patterson grabs the phone and says she is calling 911. After dialing, she continues to yell at Tara for maybe 15 to 20 seconds before the call is answered upon which she says she will hold on apparently at the request of the operator. In NYC, 911 is answered INSTANTLY, and under no circumstances wil a caller be asked to hold on. (edit) Tara disappears during the day (afternoon) then we are shown it is now 25 hours missing and New York is in full darkness (night) seems improbable that 1 hour later in the day would be the difference of night and day. (edit)
