Trivia

• When Barry arrived in the Hall of Justice, the leitmotif from when he unveiled the hall to the Crisis team in "Crisis on Infinite Earths: Part Five" can be heard.
• Chester says that playing D&D with Allegra is his new favorite thing, referencing the action role-playing game Dungeons and Dragons, which was also referenced by Gary Green in the Legends of Tomorrow episode "Necromancing the Stone".

Goofs

• Alex tells Iris, Chester, Allegra and Caitlin that they are the first to discover a Kalanorian. However, a Kalanorian started a fight in Al's Dive Bar due to the psychic effect of Myr'nn J'onzz's Ta'ar Ka'riq in the Supergirl episode "In Search of Lost Time", though this could be a change caused by the Crisis.
