Robert Hewitt Wolfe pitched the story of Sisko going to the mirror universe to replace his counterpart. Wolfe commented "From there we went back and forth about whom he should rescue, until Ira came up with the idea that it should be Jennifer, which I thought was a stroke of genius". (Captains' Logs Supplemental - The Unauthorized Guide to the New Trek Voyages p 94)
   
Tuvok (played by Star Trek: Voyager's Tim Russ) was included at the request of Rick Berman. (Captains' Logs Supplemental - The Unauthorized Guide to the New Trek Voyages p 94)
   
Nana Visitor hated the Intendant's rubber figure-hugging outfit. "It didn't breathe at all" claims Visitor, and between takes she had to stand in front of a large fan to prevent her from sweating, as sweat tended to discolor the outfit. (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Companion)
   
Ira Steven Behr commented "We certainly had enough stuff that could have kept that show going another hour. I thought the Sisko/Jennifer relationship was interesting. It was a nice way to bring Jennifer back, and I think we'll meet her again. Jake is going to have to see her at some point. The action stuff was pretty cool. I thought that the look of the show was good. My only complaint is that we had to cram so much into too little time". (Captains' Logs Supplemental - The Unauthorized Guide to the New Trek Voyages p 94)
   
Avery Brooks was especially happy when he read the teleplay for this episode, because in it, Sisko has sex for the first time since the show began. And not once, but twice; first with Dax and then with The Intendant. (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Companion)
