Trivia
The password to enter the speakeasy is "Manassa Mauler," a nickname for Jack Dempsey, the world heavyweight boxing champion from 1919 to 1926.

Goofs
When Goldie turns on a table lamp and Sam slams the door to trap her in, the camera moves in front of the lamp, throwing the shadow of the whole moving camera apparatus on the door behind Sam - a terrible lapse by the lighting director.

Quotes
[last lines]
Himself - Host: Well, as they say in San Quentin, that's the way the little pellet drops. Now, if only Dunleavy had killed Goldie he could have accounted for his actions at the time of Barney's accidental death. But then, suppose the police started asking questions about Goldie. And now for some of those delightful words from our sponsor after which, I'll be back.
[commercial break]
Himself - Host: I'm afraid that's all the commercial we have time for this evening. But we shall be back next week with some more. And, uh... Oh, incidentally, uh, if there's time we also, uh, plan to tell you another story.
