When Clark and Faora were talking about love for humans, Faora chides Clark "Like father, like son". Jor-El was previously shown falling in love with Louise McCallum in Relic.
On the first night of airing in the United States, this was the highest rated and most viewed episode of Season 8.
Faora is the 36th DC Comics character adapted into the series.
Faora professes that Clark has feelings for her host. This is similar to Isobel's realization that Clark had feelings for her host in "Spell", and Zod's realization that Lana had feelings for his host in "Zod".
The device Kara uses to capture Faora is the same one used by the Martian Manhunter to rescue Clark from Dr. Hudson in "Labyrinth".
