    • Trivia
      Jean Louisa Kelly was pregnant in real life in this episode.
    • Goofs
      In an attempt to induce a seizure in one of the patients Izzy and George place a TV in front of her face, saying the rapid flickering is known to cause seizures. Unfortunately they use a flat panel LCD TV instead of a regular CRT TV. LCD TVs don't refresh like CRT TVs do and therefore don't flicker.

      Dr. Cristina Yang: You did everything you could.

      Dr. Preston Burke: here was an interview that Eugene gave. I saved it. I taped it to my bathroom mirror. He said that he wasn't the most talented student at music school. But he said what he lacked in natural ability, he made up for in discipline. He practiced... All the time. All the time, he practiced. I wasn't like you. I wasn't the most talented student in school. I wasn't the brightest. But I was the best.

      Dr. Cristina Yang: You practiced.

      Dr. Preston Burke: I practiced.
