Episode Quotes
K.I.T.T.: [about to smash through a trailer] With all due respect, you are not possibly thinking of... Oh my word, you are!
Tanya Walker: [Speaking to the head of security] This is Tanya, someone is in town looking for me. I will give you the car and license plate. It's a new Trans-AM with a California license lettering "KNIGHT".
Jackson, Car-Thief: [having managed to seal K.I.T.T] Hey, hey, Wow! Man, this thing must make coffee too!
K.I.T.T.: I do nothing of the kind. Now pull over immediately.
K.I.T.T.: I do nothing of the kind. Now pull over immediately.
Mistakes/Goofs
- Goof (factual errors): On Michael Knight's driver's "new" driver's license, he is listed as being 5'6 with brown hair, brown eyes. In real life, the Hoff has blue eyes and is app. 6'4 - which would mean, by comparison, everyone else in the show would be really, really short.
- Goof (revealing mistake): Obvious stunt driver during the demolition derby, when KITT is driving on two wheels.
- Goof (revealing mistake): When K.I.T.T. is emitting smoke during the demolition derby, the "KNIGHT" license plate can been seen in mirrored view (the scene is apparently flipped left-to-right).
- Goof (continuity error): When Micheal is pulled over for sleeping while driving, K.I.T.T., is a different car with stock Trans-Am tail lights and a Blue with White lettering Nevada license plate.
- Goof (revealing mistake): During the demolition derby, KITT can be seen several times having a normal round steering wheel.
Trivia
- The running gag of the two car thieves trying to steal K.I.T.T. was written, shot and inserted after the first cut of the pilot was seven minutes too short

- Lance LeGault and Charles Napier both appeared on The A-Team; LeGault starred as Colonel Roderick Decker, and Napier replaced him for one episode as Colonel Briggs.
