Trivia
The "pregnancy pact" aspect of this episode's plot was based on a real-life story that broke during the summer of 2008 in Gloucester, Massachusetts, in which 18 teen girls in the same high school became pregnant around the same time (this was over 4 times the previous year's pregnancy rate at that school). The notion that there was a "pact" between the Gloucester girls quickly spread through the media; unlike in this episode, it was never proven conclusively that any or all of the real girls did make a "pregnancy pact."

Quotes
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: Despite the fact that you aren't a real medical doctor, you have been quite helpful. Thanks.
Dr. Sean Fitts: Oh, you're welcome. Oh and by the way, you *aren't* a real medical doctor either.
Special Agent Seeley Booth: Ouch!

IMDb vs Hulu

Hulu has Yanks in the UK parts 1 and 2 as two separate episodes, where IMDb has it as one, this is why the episodes don't line up for season 4. This would have been a response to the "incorrect episode number" comment, but I'm unable to do so.
