	This episode revisits periods on Voyager from the episodes, "Caretaker", "Basics, Part II", "Bliss" (not "Waking Moments" because the lights are dimmed), "Macrocosm", "Scorpion, Part II", "Bride of Chaotica!", Stardate 49624 (between the events of "Innocence" and "Tuvix" - the Doctor's time period in sickbay, a year prior to "Future's End") and the year 2394. Chakotay also mentions Janeway's regret about never learning to play an instrument, which she mentioned in "Remember"
	This episode is the last appearance of Doctor Chaotica (Martin Rayner) on the series. Robert Duncan McNeill was disappointed that he only appeared three times: "Personally, I would have liked to have done a lot more of Captain Proton. I think the studio and the producers felt like we had done it. We had reached such a pinnacle with it that to go back would be kind of doing it a disservice and undermining the specialness of the "Bride of Chaotica!" episode in particular. They were hesitant to go back for fear of ruining everyone's memories of it, but I would've loved it." (Star Trek: Voyager Companion). It is also the last appearance of Seska (Martha Hackett) and the Kazon.
	Tuvok's "dying last words" are a variation on Spock's last words to Kirk in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. Alexander Courage's theme from Star Trek can be heard in the background.
	Jeri Ryan's voice was altered in post production to give it a multi-track resonance. This was missing from her early appearances at the beginning of season 4.
	Chakotay makes mention of "The Ocampans". Beginning with "Caretaker", whenever referring to the plural of this race, they are always called "The Ocampa", never "Ocampans". Janeway and Harry Kim also referred to Kes as an "Ocampan" in VOY: "The Gift" and VOY: "Fury".
