- TriviaThe credits read "Eliza Dushku as Buffy", instead of "as Faith", reflecting the fact she is playing Buffy in Faith's body for the majority of the episode.
- GoofsAfter Willow, Tara and Buffy (as Faith) arrive outside the church, Willow starts talking to the cop but we see her face in the corner of the screen and her mouth clearly isn't moving.
- Quotes
Spike: You know why I really hate you, Summers?
Faith: [in Buffy's body] 'Cause I'm a stuck-up tight-ass with no sense of fun?
Spike: Well... yeah, that covers a lot of it.
Faith: [in Buffy's body] 'Cause I could do anything I want and instead, I choose to pout and whine and feel the burden of Slayerness? I mean, I could be rich, I could be famous, I could have anything... Anyone... Even you, Spike. I could ride you at a gallop until your legs buckled and your eyes rolled up. I've got muscles you've never even dreamed of. I could squeeze you until you popped like warm champagne and you'd beg me to hurt you just a little bit more. And you know why I don't...? Because it's wrong.
- Crazy creditsEliza Dushku is credited as Buffy Summers as the episode involves body-swapping.

I also really loved Faith's redemption and confrontation with her former self and past that she actually hates. We find out that Faith is not just a wild girl with no soul, she's actually very emotionally depressed person. I love complicated characters and Faith is one of them. I loved her scene at church and fighting with herself as she declares she finds herself disgusting. It was so deep. But I really wish Faith would have made more appearances after this, season 7 is just too far.
Joss Whedon did a great job as always and it really paid off well, we had the chance to see that Faith is actually a human with feelings and a soul. My point to this soulful(half literally) episode is 10.
