* ExtremelyColdCase: At the time of the episode's original airing, the case from 1957 is 55 years old and most of the original suspects and witnesses are dead. The detective assigned to it does show up to help with the copy-cat case and provides a crucial detail that had been withheld from the public at the time. At the end of the episode, Jo assigns herself the task of solving it, saying, "Whoever did it will never see me coming."

* WhatBeautifulEyes: The victims in both cases are young women with heterochromia. Sid says the present-day victim had the most striking case he's ever seen..one blue eye and one brown. While being questioned later, her killer lashes out due to jealousy that other people were enamored with her because of it, saying to Mac, "Those eyes! Everyone was fascinated by those eyes! Even YOU!" (Cue flashback of Mac smiling at the victim as she handed him some lab results and introduced herself.)

** Mac has always taken personal losing one of "his" own, be it a fellow Marine, an NYPD officer or anyone from the lab. He tells Jo the difference between this case and the 1957 one is that, this time, they're going to find the killer. After he narrows the group working the case to the main team and sternly instructs them to walk each piece of evidence from lab to lab themselves, Jo tells Adam not to take his boss's attitude to heart because of that.
