==Trivia==
*Despite being credited, both David McCallum and Rocky Carroll do not appear in this episode. In addition, until Season 15 this was the only NCIS episode that did not have McCallum in it.
*When Tony and Ziva are heading up to MTAC, Ziva's shirt regularly changes positions, draping on her shoulder, off one shoulder and even going off both shoulders at one point before it reverts back to normal just as she and Tony arrive in MTAC.
*During the episode, Ziva remarks that no beverages are allowed in MTAC. However, this contradicts the fact that Gibbs has been seen bringing coffee in MTAC many times although it's possible that the rule could have changed after Vance became NCIS Director.
*This episode along with "Legend Part 1" are included on the NCIS: Los Angeles Season 1 DVD.
