* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: Quite a lot in this episode, including the SubText between Alined and Trickler, Arthur assuring Vivian that: "the meat is ''very'' good" and Vivian ecstatically burying her face in Arthur's bedsheets (according to the DVDCommentary, Creator/GeorgiaMoffett was afraid she'd gone overboard with this scene).

* GeniusBonus: King Alined keeps calling Trickler "boy" even though he looks at least forty years old. This is because historically, servants and slaves have been referred to as "boy" or "girl," respectively, regardless of the person's age.

* TheBardOnBoard: The episode is best described as a mish-mash of Shakespeare plays. Basically, ''RomeoAndJuliet'' if it were a comedy instigated by Puck from ''Theatre/AMidsummerNightsDream''.

* WhatIsGoingOn: Uther is baffled by Arthur's love-struck behaviour, enough that he literally turns to Merlin (who normally he treats as part of the scenery or as background back-up to Arthur) and asks, in frustrated confusion, "What has happened to him?" Merlin, for his part, just shrugs.
