* RecycledScript: Borrows quite a bit from TOS episode "[[Recap/StarTrekS3E13ElaanOfTroyius Elaan of Troyius]]": woman with an irresistible biochemistry used a political pawn in an arranged marriage, but ends up bonding instead with the good captain and not her designated mate, leading to a delicate diplomatic situation, complicated by the presence of some aliens with their own agendas (Klingons in TOS, Ferengi here). This NG episode ends on a more equitable note for all involved though, thanks mainly to the bride in question, who is a much more grounded individual.

* NamesTheSame: Krios was mentioned before in the Season 4 episode [[Recap/StarTrekTheNextGenerationS4E24TheMindsEye "The Mind's Eye"]], as the site of a Klingon colony where the Romulans were trying to stir up political tension. It's never made clear whether this is meant to be the same planet.

* DeletedScene: Picard interrupts the ceremony between Kamala and Alrik, telling Alrik that he cannot let it go forward. He tells him that this should be fine, as he's really more concerned with trade agreements anyway, and he agrees. The scene then cuts to reveal that this was only a fantasy of Picard's.



* WhatCouldHaveBeen: A proposed ending would have had Picard interrupt the wedding, only to reveal it was just his imagination, the ceremony continuing as planned. Creator/PatrickStewart was on board with this, but Rick Berman overruled it. This appears as a deleted scene on the Blu-ray release.
