Trivia

When Dr. Max Bergmann meets Jeff Morrison, Max infers that he knows Morrison. Of course Masi Oka and 'Greg Grunberg' have met before, in Heroes. In addition, when Max tries to remember where he met Jeff before, Max screws his eyes tightly shut, which is the same thing Hiro did whenever he wanted to freeze time or teleport.

Goofs

A main plot point is the recovery of the black box flight data recorder from the crashed Cessna 177. But the Cessna 177 does not come equipped with one, nor is it required by regulation to be equipped with one.

Danny 'Danno' Williams: Well, I already told you he needs the window open.
Steve McGarrett: Oh, yes. Right. How else is he going to enjoy his tour of Waikiki?
Danny 'Danno' Williams: You know, for your information, dogs get car sick.
