Trivia
This was the last "Star Trek" production until Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979) five years later. This is the longest period of time in which the franchise lay dormant. This was also the last episode of the "Star Trek" franchise to feature scenes set in the 23rd Century until Trials and Tribble-ations (1996) 22 years later.

Goofs
In Karla Five's first message to the Enterprise, she speaks in reverse. Later, in her reverse-time universe, the crew can understand her (and her them) because, as Spock says, their brains are now in reverse. If this were true, then Karla's brain should likewise have been reversed when she entered the forward-time universe, allowing her to speak forwards.

Quotes
Commodore Robert April: No matter where I've traveled in the galaxy, Jim, this bridge is more like home than anywhere else.
Capt. Kirk: Yes, Commodore, I know the feeling.
Commodore Robert April: To me she was always like my child. I was there in the San Francisco Navy Yards when her unit components were built.

Before Benjamin...

Inverted, inverse, reversed and opposite, facing, opposing, back to front and conflicted - time runs anti-clockwise as the Enterprise parallels to another universe and puberty is rediscovered.
