    • Trivia
      The plot overall is based on Mirror, Mirror (1967), one of the most popular episodes of Star Trek (1966). Hercules has a goatee just like the mirror universe Spock did. The corridor between worlds is similar to the one in The Alternative Factor (1967), Star Trek's first attempt at a parallel universe story.
