Trivia
In one scene Jesse Keys (Desmond Harrington) is reading 'The World According to Garp' by John Irving. This 1978 novel is about a nurse who begins a relationship with a military airman who suffered brain trauma during combat, which blends details from the lives of both Jesse and his father. This 1978 novel was made into a movie in 1982, two years after this episode takes place.

Goofs
At the end of maintenance, the last day shown is November 8th of 1980. When that date first appears on the screen, it is daylight. Then we see Eric waiting for Becky to get out of her house (in order to live with her to Maine), it is then night time. When she doesn't go out he decides to hit the road back to his military base and finish packing up. When he enters the base, it is daylight again. However, when he finally takes off to Maine, while he is on the road, it is night time again and the date shown is still November 8th of 1980. It should be November 9th (or more) of 1980 since at least one day and a half separates the scene when that date first appeared and the last scene it appears in.

Quotes
Allie Keys: [narrating] Some people spend their lives hoping for something to happen that will change everything. They look for power or love, or the answers to their biggest questions. I think really what they're looking for is another chance. Some way to lead another life where all the mistakes they've made would be erased, and they could just start over. Nothing bad has happened yet and all their possibilities are still in front of them.
