- TriviaJohn Luther asks his partner to call "Detective Munch, in New York. He works in the Special Victims Unit." This is a reference to Law & Order: Special Victims Unit (1999), which stars Richard Belzer as Detective John Munch, a character who has appeared on American television for over 15 years. The character first appeared as a regular in NBC's Homicide: Life on the Street (1993) and later carried over to become a regular on the equally long-running SVU.

- Quotes
DSU Rose Teller: So, they won't give us what we want. We can't give them what they want.
DCI John Luther: No. Can't give it to them, but we can lend it to 'em.
DSU Rose Teller: Meaning?
DCI John Luther: Let's visit the evidence safe.
DSU Rose Teller: Don't wanna hear it.
DCI John Luther: Boss, these are very special circumstances; same rules do not apply.
DSU Rose Teller: Chain of evidence is like the ten commandments: it applies unto time and all eternal. Anything in the evidence safe is sacrosanct; we tamper, we risk voiding active cases.
DCI John Luther: Only if we get found out.
DSU Rose Teller: Am I actually having this conversation? Are you actually saying this to me?
- ConnectionsReferences The Road Runner Show (1966)
Without a doubt, one of the most confusing episodes of a series that I've ever seen. None of the characters acted in a consistent manner. Which was compounded by major plot holes and continuity errors.
What was Ian even doing in this episode and why did he do any of the things he did? In every scene he acted like he was a totally different person.
MAGIC POLICE: How did they find the bad guys within minutes without any evidence or actual detective work? What happened to common sense these days?
But of course, we cannot expect this episode or the characters within it to possess even a modicum of common sense. After all, same rules do not apply !!!!
