* CreativeDifferences: Robert Foxworth (Admiral Leyton) cost himself a job by accepting this role. He had also been cast in a similar role on Series/Babylon5, which was supposed to be recurring. But Creator/JMichaelStraczynski felt it was a betrayal to work both shows, so he killed off Foxworth's B5 character.

So he killed off Foxworth's B5 character.character offscreen, preventing him from having any future appearances. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gCmpDfHMnjA A blooper references this]].

* CreatorsPest: A minor example, but the writers and producers ultimately didn't like the character of Jaresh-Inyo, feeling that he came across as too weak to be taken seriously as a Federation president and that his actor didn't fit the role.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: The original idea was for this episode to be much darker, with the changelings succeeding in causing internal division in the Federation. Vulcan was going to secede after the declaration of martial law and the episode would have ended with a Starfleet ship firing on a Vulcan ship in Earth orbit. There was also going to be a more intimate look at the internal politics of the Federation, specifically how the Federation president could have the authority to order around the local Earth government. But it was decided this would be unnecessarily complicated and the matter was dropped.
