Trivia
- Damien Darhk refers to the world going "Dr. Strangelove", referencing the 1964 film which ends with the world entering a nuclear apocalypse.
- Felicity states to Curtis and Noah that the world will have a "sequel to WarGames" if they don't hack Rubicon and stop Genesis. This is a reference to 1983 film WarGames, where the young hacker David Lightman tries to stop supercomputer WOPR from launching nuclear missiles.
- Curtis also mentions its 2008 sequel, WarGames: The Dead Code, which was released on DVD and, in contrast to original, was panned by critics.
- When Oliver and John enter Tevat Noah, John compared it to Mount Weather, a governmental facility which was built by FEMA during the Cold War.
- During the hacking battle over Rubicon, Cooper Seldon taunts Felicity that they are going to "once more unto the breach." This is from Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, which Curtis recognizes.
- This episode follows the pattern of the penultimate episode of a season being named after a Bruce Springsteen song, in this case after the 1973 song "Lost in the Flood".
