Background information[]

  • This episode has the first appearance of several family members of the cast at various Thanksgiving events before they called away to try to find Amanda:
    • Ross is shown with his two sons (who were mentioned before) along with his ex-wife, her boyfriend Todd, and presumably his parents.
    • Eames is in a yard with kids running around her. Though there is no dialogue, it is likely her nieces and nephews, including the one she gave birth to via surrogacy.
    • Goren is with his mother, Frances Goren, who we see in person for the first time.
  • Eames first mentions her dead husband, Joe, that he bought her a taser for their anniversary once, and that he died eight years before.
