Production details[]
- Shooting Dates: from March 5, 1982 to March 24, 1982 (Due to principal cast illness in March, shooting on episodes 34, 35 and 36 was intermingled. The filming of this episode was also suspended from March 15 to March 19).
- Filming Locations: 20th Century Fox studios; Bud Raymond's, 18300 Sherman Way (Reseda); 7200 Reseda Boulevard (Reseda).
- Trimmed scenes : While discussing with Tony, Krystle mentions Claudia's arrival (this part of the scene was trimmed down because Claudia's arrival scene was put first during the editing process); a nurse proposes that Fallon bottle-feeding LB and Fallon relunctantly accepts.
- Unfilmed scene : Blake hits on Tony who is changing a tyre of his truck.
- Trivia : First mention in the series that Blake and Alexis had an older son, Adam, who had been kidnapped as a baby. This news would come significantly into play in the next season when the adult Adam enters the Carrington's lives.
