Trivia
This episode takes place from April 4 to May 28, 1970.

Goofs
The first scene takes place in Eastern Indiana in April 1970. Col. Crawford is investigating crop circles in the middle of a field of dry, standing corn. In April, there is no standing corn anywhere in Indiana. Field corn (aka feed corn or dent corn) is harvested in late autumn (sometimes as late as December) and there is nothing left in a corn field in April but stubble.

Quotes
Allie Keys: [narrating] When you're a kid, anything can take you away: soap bubbles or a hose spraying a rainbow up over a new-mowed lawn. I guess growing up means that it gets harder and harder to find your way back to that kind of place where you can be taken. The one time I see grown-ups with that same sort of look on their faces is when they're first falling in love.
