* At the beginning of "Fog", Dietrich and Wojo are awed by the thick fog blanketing New York. Dietrich proceeds to quote Act I, Scene 1 of Creator/WilliamShakespeare's ''Theatre/{{Macbeth}}'': "Fair is foul, and foul is fair / Hover through the fog and filthy air." Wojo replies by quoting Creator/CarlSandburg's "Fog": "The fog comes / on little cat feet. / It sits looking / over harbor and city / on silent haunches / and then moves on." (Harris then enters and brings things back to earth by simply describing the fog as "thick as pea soup". "Ours were better," Wojo tells Dietrich.)
