Trivia
In an interview, Michael Dorn revealed that the events of this episode altered his perception of Worf, and influenced how he played the part from then on. He said, "There was a lot more involved in it than the writers realized. Things that have to do with Klingon loyalty and honor. They didn't give it its due. You look at Worf in a different light, and I've played him in a different light since that episode. This is not something they have come up with. I'm doing this on my own. Hey, it's their fault. They wrote it. So now, I'm going to carry on with it."

Goofs
When Picard asks Kahlest if Mogh was a traitor, she responds, "No, Mogh was loyal to the Emperor." She should have said "Empire", as it is explained in Rightful Heir (1993) that there had been no Klingon Emperor for three centuries at this time.

Quotes
Duras: This is not your world, Human. You do not command here.
Captain Jean-Luc Picard: I'm not here to command.
Duras: Then you must be ready to fight. Something Starfleet does not teach you.
Captain Jean-Luc Picard: You may test that assumption at your convenience.
