Trivia
The title is based upon a quote from William Shakespeare's play "Julius Caesar" (Act III, Scene I): "Cry 'Havoc', and let slip the dogs of war". See more »Goofs
In the scene where the kidnappers' message is being played in the situation room, the Arabic message is actually Abdul Shareef's dialogue from Season 3 when he met with the president, re-used. The producers simply gave a different translation. See more »Quotes

Zoey's kidnapping goes into its second day. Walken orders bombings and ground forces in Qumar. The staff (and Josh particularly) are going crazy with fear that Walken will start legislating a right wing agenda. How is it that we had to wait for season 5 to meet the President's eldest daughter? Hello, Liz Bartlet (Annabeth Gish - DESERT BLOOM, MYSTIC PIZZA), in the second of six fine appearances. The debut of Jesse Bradford (ROMEO + JULIET, HACKERS) as irritating intern Ryan Pierce, who would do nine episodes. He's obvious comic relief here, but will become a little more. This kidnapping arc finale isn't as brilliant as its predecessors, but is pushed into greatness by Goodman and the images of a family reunited.
