** While going over audio to get a lead on where AJ is Lana shows up by punching her way through the door and knocks out the guards. Archer reveals that he called her because this is kind of the situation '''you tell the mother about'''. Lana then declares that she's going to kill everyone between her and the kidnappers, then the actual kidnappers and then Robert for not telling her. The agents are dead right that Lana was likely to murder Robert for that stunt.

Lana then declares [[TranquilFury (in a coldly furious tone)]] that she's going to kill absolutely everyone between her and the kidnappers, then the actual kidnappers kidnappers, and then Robert for not telling her. The agents are dead right that Lana was likely to murder Robert for that stunt.

--> '''Cyril:''' We're the Agency. We're used to ambushes and bad odds and terrible situations. That's where we thrive. Because we're not just the front lines, we're a step beyond that. If we do our job right, there never is a front line. So you can look at the screens, see our failures sure. But the world you're living in, the world you're living in right now, that is our success.

* While it's both humorous and shocking that Lana did cocaine, the stuff she did after the fact is the equivalent of her being able to not only disarm one guard and take his gun. But she manages to shoot two down before using another to jump out a two story window. Perfectly landing ontop of a man on his scooter and comendeering it. It even gets better when she basically pulls a [[BulletTime Neo]] with a few bullets the drug lord fires at her. She even disarms him within seconds of inhaling the stuff.
* Pam gets one for actually rejecting Cocaine at the end of the episode. Many cocaine users would find it hard to quit cold Turkey a bit, but Pam manages to throw it in the Ocean so Lana doesn't have to go through the same road she did in season 5.

* Cyril's habit of blindly firing while shouting "Suppressing fire!" actually comes in handy when Archer's team is PinnedDown. His wild shots get their enemies to let up a bit on their own shots enough for Archer and Pam to rush them.
