Production errors
- Jack tells Angelo that he is a fixed point in time, and that is why he cannot die. This is what the Doctor told Jack in Utopia. However, at this point in Jack's timeline he hasn't seen the Doctor in nearly 30 years, and is still actively waiting for him so that he can properly explain Jack's immortality and perhaps help him become mortal. It is therefore odd that Jack would tell Angelo this, as at this point he is supposedly completely ignorant as to why he cannot die, being unaware that he was resurrected by the Bad Wolf (entity). This constitutes a continuity error, unless this is a previously unseen version of Jack from his more than 2,000 year lifetime.
Continuity
- Jack refers directly to the Doctor, and to his travels typically being with a companion.
- The Seventh Doctor and the Captain also mentioned Clarke's Law. (DW: Battlefield, The Pirate Planet)
- Jack has very similar dialogue with Angelo that the Ninth Doctor had with Rose Tyler. (DW: Rose)
- Jack stating to Angelo that "Men like you kill me" may have been a reference to his former lover Captain John Hart.
- Jack refers to time making him a fixed point (DW: Utopia)
- The creature Jack and Angelo find was intended to infect Franklin D. Roosevelt and disrupt history for the Trickster's Brigade. (DW: Turn Left, SJA: Whatever Happened to Sarah Jane?, The Temptation of Sarah Jane Smith, The Wedding Of Sarah Jane Smith)
- A brief video clip is shown of the "death" of Vera Juarez. (TW:The Categories of Life)
- This is the first time that Jack is killed onscreen during Series 4. He is killed at least seven times in this episode, including from being shot, stabbed, disemboweled, and from a high fall.
