This is the first episode to show the cast member's credits during the episode's teaser.
Jo-Marie Payton, who had become increasingly dissatisfied with her role as Harriet and the direction of the show over the past couple of seasons, has cited the series increasingly silly and unrealistic plots, such as this one's, as being the deciding factor as to her wanting to leave the series. However, Payton was still under contract and it would be another two seasons before she could leave it.
