	*The destroyed city serving as the "home base" for the Colonials and Cylons remains unnamed, however when Col. Tigh wades into the water, what appears to be the pedestal of the State of Liberty atop the former Fort Wood can be seen in the distance to the right of Tigh's back. This lends further credence to the speculation originating with "[[Revelations]]" that they are in the vicinity of New York City, and adds to the two episodes' homage and references to ''The Planet of the Apes'' which ends with Col. Taylor's discovery of the statue's damaged upper portion. Coincidentally, Fort Wood's shape is known as a "star fort".		*The destroyed city serving as the "home base" for the Colonials and Cylons remains unnamed, however when Col.

	*Dee's decision to spend her final hours with Lee is in keeping with her deleted engagement scene in "[[Unfinished Business]]". In accepting Lee's marriage proposal, Dee acknowledged that the marriage would not survive Lee's continued feelings toward Kara Thrace, and that the Cylons would likely find and kill them all anyway; nevertheless, she wanted to spend what little time she could with him and happy. Her suicide echoes sentiments she expressed to Apollo in a deleted scene in "Black Market," in which she implied the despair and uncertainty of current events was almost too much to bear and that she sometimes wishes she would have been killed in the attacks on the colonies, and thus not have to deal with it anymore.		*Dee's decision to spend her final hours with Lee is in keeping with her deleted engagement scene in "[[Unfinished Business]]".
