Trivia
- Like "Chief Woodrow", this episode was held back from being played during the rest of season 2 in the United States. In this episode's case, it was so that it could air on the weekend of the actual midwinter.
- This episode's soundtrack includes a bespoke song by Clint Black titled "Light the Fire".
- Blades notes he has no feeling in his tail rotor and points to his backside, but his tail rotor becomes his feet!
