* OffModel: This episode features one of the series' most infamous animation errors. When Demona transforms at sunset at the end of Act II, she is drawn without her tiara (as Dominique was not wearing it); this is the only time in the entire series that she is seen without her tiara. Following Act II, while she is still drawn without her tiara, her forehead is colored gold throughout the rest of the episode.

* AccentSlipUp: When Demona, disguised as Dominique, is walking with Macbeth (luckily, it happens so quickly that Macbeth doesn't notice):
-->'''Macbeth:''' I have so much I want to share with you. I hardly know where to begin.\\
'''Demona:''' ''[French accent]'' What's the rush, ''mon cheri''? ''[reverts to her natural mid-Atlantic accent]'' We have all the time in the world.

Goliath never says that any previous version of him is "dead"


* ThatManIsDead: Angela was shocked to learn that Goliath and Demona used to be in love. Goliath angrily says that's all in the past and doesn't matter anymore. As far as he's concerned, the Goliath who loved Demona died the night she betrayed him and the Gargoyle way.
* XanatosGambit: Done by Thailog in this episdoe. He hooks up with Demona, they pool their resources and plot for Demona to marry Macbeth, then imprison him, staging a death so they could acquire his resources. Unknown to Demona, Thailog plotted to have her and Macbeth kill each other so he'd be the sole heir of all the fortunes for him to build his planned empire on. Even if the planned double death failed, he still has Demona wrapped around his finger for him to use for his benefit.

* ShoutOut:
** Elisa's "This is a job for the gargoyles" line is a take-off on the catch-phrase "This looks like a job for Franchise/{{Superman}}."
** ''Sanctuary'' is also the title of a 1931 William Faulkner novel. Faulkner is one of Greg Weisman's favorite writers and his works were one of the influences on Gargoyles.
** Thailog's chosen alias of "Alexander" is a tribute to the historical figure Alexander the Great. Interestingly, David Xanatos, one Thailog's "fathers", would name his own son Alexander as tribute to the same person.
