1 | * AccidentallyCorrectWriting: The book mentions in passing that [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pennsylvania_Station_(New_York_City) Penn Station]] was 'destroyed for reasons lost in the confusion of the late [=XXth=] Century'. Ten years after the book was published, the station was indeed destroyed despite widespread protests. |
2 | * DeletedScene: The [[https://archive.org/stream/galaxymagazine-1952-01/Galaxy_1952_01#page/n5/mode/2up magazine publication]] includes various sequences not present in the book: |
3 | ** A prologue describing the discovery of antigravity, the origins of the Esper Guild, the rise to power of the Reich and D'Courtney dynasties, and where the murder weapon came from. |
4 | ** Reich has meetings with several of his subordinates, all of whom give him the unwelcome news that the D'Courtney Cartel is outcompeting them. |
5 | ** T8 [Tate] attempts to back out of accompanying Reich to Maria Beaumont's party, only for Reich to blackmail him into obedience. |
6 | ** Several of the guests at Maria Beaumont's party are named and given backstories. |
7 | ** While attempting to find D'Courtney under cover of the Sardine game, Reich encounters Duffy Wyg& and Galen Chervil. This leads to a minor plotline where Galen falls in unrequited love with Duffy, to show why Espers can only love another Esper. |
8 | ** Forensic ('Moltec') teams are shown tracing the movements of Maria's guests. |
9 | ** When Crabbe interrupts Powell's presentation of his case to the District Attorney, he has with him the 'real murderer' -- a deluded member of the public who has convinced himself he was the killer. |
10 | ** The last scene includes Powell's FirstKiss with Barbara. |
