Did You Know?
| Trivia | In 2013, Robert Downey Jr. optioned this episode as a potential film adaptation by Warner Bros. and his production company Team Downey, which was to be written by the episode's writer Jesse Armstrong; the plot would have been about a man who uses a grain to repeat memories with his deceased wife, gradually learning a big secret from doing so. However, in a 2018 interview, Armstrong said that the project was in "development hell" and suggested that Team Downey's option had lapsed. See more » |
| Goofs | When Liam hits Jonas with the vodka bottle at 34:54, Liam's shoulder and head are briefly visible. The grain is in their eyes so this shouldn't happen. See more » |
