First appearance of K.I.T.T.'s Bomb Detection Module.
First appearance of K.I.T.T.'s rotating license plate feature (alternate tag reads "KNI 667").
Guest star Tim O'Connor on Brother's Keeper: "I remember Ed [Mulhare] was terrible with his lines on the set. He asked me if I could cure him. Well, I said I would try, and I did try, but I couldn't cure him!" O'Connor played state official Phillip Hunt here, and previously co-starred in the first season of Glen Larson's Buck Rogers in the Twenty-Fifth Century.
A number of scenes from the script failed to make the final cut: K.I.T.T. performs a comprehensive review of famous partnerships in crime, and comes to the conclusion that he and Michael resemble Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. More references likening Michael and K.I.T.T. to the famous bandits can be found in later episodes, notably KNIGHT IN DISGRACE.
A scene in which McCord tries to explain to Lisa what happened the night of her mother's murder was also cut.
