Trivia[]
- This episode is the second in the show's history to have more than two writers working on it, with the first being "100", which was written by "Bo Crese", an acronym of Breen Frazier, Oanh Ly, Chris Mundy, Rick Dunkle, Erica Messer, Simon Mirren, and Edward Allen Bernero (all of the members of the writing team for Season Five, the season "100" was produced for).
- Cici Leah Campbell, the actor who portrays a drug addict, previously appeared on Criminal Minds, starring as a victim of John Myers in the Season Eight premiere episode "The Silencer", and as Tina in "The Gathering", another episode in the same season.
- The titles of the two episode parts, "Angels" and "Demons," is possibly a reference to the Dan Brown novel Angels and Demons, the book where the character Robert Langdon was first introduced
