This episode was filmed before "Past Prologue", but aired after it.
   
Rom is named for the first time (though several changes were later made in the character).
   
Ibudan's calendar files, viewed by Odo, contain a number of in-jokes. Ibudan left from Alderaan spaceport (Star Wars); he had lunch with Della Santina (the series' unit production manager, Robert della Santina); and he had a teleconference with Gocke (the series' sound mixer, Bill Gocke).
   
The character Zayra was named for Zayra Cabot, an assistant to Jeri Taylor (a producer of TNG and VOY).
   
Both Keiko (Rosalind Chao) and Molly (Hana Hatae) O'Brien make their first regular appearances on DS9 in this episode.
   
This episode gives Odo's regeneration time as 18 hours instead of the usual 16 hours stated in future episodes.
   
Ibudan's personal logs give the stardate to be 46385 compared to the one referenced in Sisko's Station Log of 46421.5.
