Trivia

Nate (Timothy Hutton) wins a poker game in order to get a mark on the hook. This is similar to The Sting where Gondorff (Paul Newman) wins a poker game to also get a mark on the hook. Both times the final hand was four Jacks winning over four nines and the winning hand was gotten through cheating.
This was production number 104, but is the 3rd episode to air in the series. The entire season was shot out of order.
The song "More Than I Deserve" heard during this episode, was written and performed by Christian Kane who plays Eliot Spencer.
