-
The entire episode was shot in just slightly more than a week.
-
During the filming of the apartment scenes, the crew turned
off the refridgerator due to noise and forgot to turn it back
on.
-
The Dean Dome scene was originally written to have police
cars and cops present.
-
The final editing for the episode was done in a grueling 26
hour session by producer M. Wilson Burdorff.
-
At the end of the session, Burdorff was so tired that he dated
the episode April 31, a non-existent date, rather than the
actual date, May 1.
-
Agent Maggie Scott is mistakenly credited as Agent Maggie
Smith due to the characters similarities to the screenwriter,
Seagrumn Smith.
-
The script contains many more "touchy feely" moments
between Mac and Maggie. They were mostly removed during shooting
or editing.
-
The last scene was originally supposed to take place at Raleigh-Durham
International Airport.

-
Outside the barn, the lighting keeps changing. The day of
the shoot the sun continually went in and out from from behind
the clouds, altering the exposure.
-
In the hotel, Maggie's food miraculously changes into a glass
of water.
-
At the Dean Dome, Bob removes his toothpick, but then it is
in his mouth again.
-
At the Dean Dome, Mac is not wearing a tie. The only tie that
the crew had was for the wrong day, so it was shot without.
