== Background information and notes ==
=== Production ===
=== Story ===
* A year ago, Quentin was not a bachelor.
* Dr. Melon and Dr. Sinclair were treating Judith.
== Bloopers and continuity errors ==
* At the end of the previous episode when Count Petofi, inhabiting the body of Quentin, arrived at Evan's house, he knocked on the door by rapping slowly seven times. Once inside, the chair Evan pulled out for Quentin to sit on had a rail back topped with an elaborate carving. In the reprise of this sequence, Quentin knocks using six rapid knocks, a pause, then eight more quick raps, and the chair Quentin is offered is upholstered.
* Petofi (in Quentin's body) says, "Perhaps it will discourage you from listing...friends to your cause." The word was obviously supposed to be "enlisting." David Selby clearly hesitates after mispronouncing the word but then continues.
* Stage lights are visible in the graveyard.
