Trivia
The DVD containing this episode contains three deleted scenes from an excised story line concerning Donna and Ryan's efforts to get new policy announcements from the policy staff. The scenes were removed so that the episode would come in under the required length, but the episode still contains a few references to the plot line.

Goofs
The building labeled as the Russell Senate Office Building is actually the Postal Square Building, three blocks north.
