* RevivalLoophole: Yar must kill her opponent, but no one said she has to stay dead. As a bonus, this invokes the "'til death do us part" clause of Yareena's marriage, and she promptly picks Hagon as her "first one" instead. Oddly enough, it doesn't work in Lutan's favor as he doesn't inherit Yareena's wealth after she dies.

* BelatedInjuryRealization: Yareena's poisoned spike-glove flies off her hand mid-fight and lands in the crowd; one spectator catches it and nonchalantly returns it. It's only after the glove is returned that the man notices the spikes have pierced his abdomen, and he promptly keels over.

* AbsenteeActor: Worf doesn't appear. While this was simply because Creator/MichaelDorn was unavailable--he also didn't appear in "[[Recap/StarTrekTheNextGenerationS1E10Haven Haven]]," the next episode in the filming order--fans like to joke that this is because he would have instantly deflated Lutan's pretensions to honor[[note]]And probably Lutan himself once he kidnapped Tasha[[/note]] and killed the story.

* AsYouKnow: The turbolift conversation at the start of the episode is full of it. Either that or Picard is being briefed on this very important mission just seconds before meeting Lutan.

Lampshaded in a later scene where Picard starts going off about why the Prime Directive is so important in this kind of situation despite his personal disapproval of the local customs before apologizing for "rambling on about something everyone already knows".

* {{Mondegreen}}: "Surrounded by such friendship, I feel no need for my ''guards''." It sounds like Lutan is saying "I feel no need for my ''gods''."
