** In another sartorial display, Sister Michael is shown wearing a Celtic penannular brooch alongside her nun's coif, a sign that she is balancing her identities as a Catholic and an Irishwoman. The person whose view of the Troubles in Season 1 was a flip "We're [i.e. Catholics] the goodies" is now preparing to endorse an accord that means something less than 100% victory for her "side", but which does mean an end to the violence and a way forward for Northern Ireland as a whole.

** While James being abandoned by his mother is generally played for laughs/black comedy, it's treated much more seriously in this episode, and acts as a reminder of how cruel her treatment of him was/is: she left her son in Derry without so much as saying goodbye to him, only to reappear months later because (as Michelle points out) he's become useful for her again. Despite this, James clearly loves his mother and is desperate to have a relationship with her, while she clearly does not feel the same way about him.

* Chelsea Clinton reads the girls' letter in the DistantFinale with such warmth and compassion towards those long-ago girls: adolescents growing up in a war zone who were concerned with parents and school and boys and what the other kids thought of their hairstyles, just like teenagers everywhere, and who'd reached out to a fellow adolescent out of empathy (and breathtaking naïveté). One imagines that the girls in the present would have cringed in mortal embarrassment if they’d known the fate of their letter, but the sympathy and good humor in Clinton’s voiceover makes it clear she’s accepting that long-ago kindness in the spirit it was given, and that the girls have no need to be embarrassed by the children they were. We don't get to see who the girls became, but we saw them safely to the threshold of adulthood, saw them and their community choose to try to build a better world... and then we got this one last snapshot of their common girlhood. They were awesome.
