The San Francisco street scenes were filmed on Paramount's New York Street backlot. The red brick streets were painted onto the regular blacktop and washed away after filming had been completed. Street scenes in the town of Portage Creek, which features in the episode "11:59", was also filmed here. Henry Janeway's ("11:59") bookstore, Alexandria Books, is in a building only a few doors away from the one used as Kim's apartment in this episode.
Jack Shearer who plays Admiral Strickler also plays Admiral Hayes in the movie "Star Trek: First Contact" and the episode "Hope and Fear." He plays an alien, Ruwon, the leader of a Romulan delegation, in DS9 episode "Visionary".
The only part of spacedock seen is the doors, which were the doors of the Dyson Sphere in the TNG episode "Relics".
Robert Picardo, Ethan Phillips, and Jennifer Lien did not appear in this episode.
Michael Piller: "I felt production-wise it was quite good, and I felt there were some good scenes in it. I had always envisioned a Hitchcockian, 'Vertigo' type of tension in this show that I don't think we ever achieved. There were long, languid scenes that cut the tension, and I felt the resolution was too easy. I didn't know personally how to recommend a solution, but having the alien sit down and say basically everything you needed to know about this show and more in one scene, and here's what you do to get out, didn't work. It just felt like we didn't earn our way out of it."
Brannon Braga: "If you're going to do alternate reality, make sure it's just a very good story, and this one just didn't turn out very well. I didn't think the chemistry between Kim and his girlfriend was very good. There's always some cool stuff, but it didn't work as an episode. I had actually written Counselor Troi into a big scene where Kim is being interrogated. It's the admiral now, but it was Troi working for Starfleet, where she really grills Kim. But we couldn't work it out with Marina Sirtis, so I rewrote it."
Actress Jennifer Gatti plays Libby, Kim's fiancée. She had previously played a Klingon, Ba'El, in the two-part TNG episode "Birthright." Gatti and Garrett Wang (who plays Harry Kim) had concerns about Kim's desire to find a way back when he was clearly so homesick on Voyager. Gatti: "Garrett and I had a lot of discussions about that, actually. I guess it's because Paris's life had been affected by whatever it was that happened. Frankly, I still don't know what happened, but he wouldn't be able to live with the guilt. And I think that he has a certain confidence that they are going to get home."
Garrett Wang: "I think Harry Kim needs to be fleshed out more. There needs to be some more color with the characters. Some more background stuff touched upon which will be. I've talked to the writers about that. In this episode, he gets some more color and more confidence, which is great. Obviously, as the youngest, he's going to be the one who they're going to point to in terms of getting caught or captured or mistakes happening. It's easier to write Kim as the person who initiates that as opposed to somebody like the captain having all the mistakes, but I like to see the character develop more experience and develop into a person who has background and beliefs. I'd also like to see more of Kim's cynical sense of humor come through, which he had in the pilot. Especially in the scene with B'Elanna in the prison cell (in Caretaker). She asks if I was involved in capturing her, and I say, 'Yeah, I got a phaser right here in my hospital gown.' That kind of sarcasm adds more color."
