Trivia

At the beginning of the episode the President says to Leo "George Bernard Shaw said 'you don't live longer, it just seems longer.'" They then debate if it was really Shaw who said it. The correct quote is by Sir Clement Raphael Freud who said "if you resolve to give up smoking, drinking and loving, you don't actually live longer; it just seems longer." See more »

Goofs

While the President is being briefed about the hostages being moved in a scene shot from behind the President (time index 2:03) shows a photo being passed to a female military officer directly to the President's right. In the next shot the woman is now a man, Mickey. See more »
