- The building used in exterior shots as the office building for the US Marshal's Albuquerque office, is the historic Sunshine Building, in downtown Albuquerque, designed by famous architect Henry C. Trost.
- The prop police cars used for Albuquerque Police vehicles have the same color and graphic scheme as real APD vehicles, however the seal on the rear fender is not the real APD seal, however it is the same shape as the real thing.
- When Mary visits Vernon McRoy hoping to convince him not to try to regain custody of his son, she hands him an envelope with pictures of the boy's new life with his foster family in Albuquerque. When he asks what's in the envelope, she responds, "Fan mail from some flounder." Her line is taken from a short cartoon sequence used to segue to commercials on "The Bullwinkle Show" (1961-1964). Rocky and Bullwinkle were depicted on a beach, and Rocky would say, "Look Bullwinkle, a message in a bottle," to which Bullwinkle would respond, "Fan mail from some flounder?" Rocky would respond, "No, something really amazing," and hold the "message" toward the camera, at which point the show would cut to a commercial.
- The character of FBI Agent Robert O'Conner is played by star Mary McCormack's younger brother Will McCormack. The actor played a character by almost the same name (Robert O'Connor, with an "or") in a 2004 movie by the same name as the series, In Plain Sight (2004)
- This episode features a fast food establishment called "Bob's Burgers". The dialogue implies that its a national (or at least regional) chain, when one person said "I didn't know New Mexico had Bob's Burgers." In reality, there really is a chain of fast food restaurants called "Bob's Burgers" and in fact, that shot was filmed at one of their locations (with the corporate logos and menu boards changed), however, its a purely local chain of restaurant, with all of their locations in Albuquerque, or the surrounding area. So, any other restaurant named "Bob's Burgers" outside of New Mexico is not the same chain as portrayed in the episode.
- The psychiatrist hired to observe Mary, Dr. Shelley Finkle, is played by Ali Marsh, Frederick Weller's real life wife.
- Office manager Eleanor Prince (Holly Maples) has a photo on her desk of herself and her late husband. The photo is actually of Holly and her husband, show creator David Maples.
