Trivia
- This is the first episode to have an unfortunate be the saboteur twice.
- Conor is the first male Unfortunate to escape the Tower, as well as the first one to escape to not be a Saboteur.
- George is the first saboteur to fail to sabotage a challenge as well as the first saboteur to be trapped. (however he is not the first saboteur to be detected in a challenge). He is also the only male Unfortunate to be trapped in Feed Me Lies.
- No saboteurs were detected in this episode, however George did fail to sabotage Feed Me Lies.
- First appearances of Black Widow, Feed Me Lies, Snake Attack, Wicked Wardrobes and One Way Out and There Can Be Only One Winner.
- Tyrone is the only unfortunate bitten by the snake trapped on Floor 4 to not be a saboteur
- The Caretaker mentions his name being "mislost" to the audience in this episode, a fact which is brought up later in Series 3 Episode 9. Assuming "mislost" follows the same general rules as the mis suffix (Generally the act of failing to perform a certain task e.g. misbehave meaning the act of failing to behave.) Then the Caretaker by this logic should still know his own name as mislost would mean "The act of failing to lose something." (Though at the same time the Caretaker's unique language mannerisms is a recurring gag.)
- In this episode, the counter used in a mental challenge to count how many good (the yellow/gold one at the top) and bad results (the red one at the bottom) is switched around in this episode (this is the only episode in which its done, but given this is the first episode which aired, its unknown whether this was a mistake or was done intentionally, but was changed for later episodes)
- Daisy is the only female unfortunate to be trapped in Black Widow.
- Emmy is the only female Unfortunate trapped in Wicked Wardrobes who was not the saboteur.
