TRIVIA

We see Neelix's ship for the first time since the pilot. (Apparently, it has been sitting in the shuttle bay since then.)
Tom and Harry were accused of killing 47 Akritirian guards. The number 47 figures prominently in the Star Trek Universe and is somewhat of a running joke for writers and set designers to insert it.
