Production
It was the first episode written by John Wells after taking over as sole show runner after Aaron Sorkin and Thomas Schlamme left at the end of the fourth season.
The final sequence of the episode shows shots of the Bartlets attending a private mass, intercut with various other scenes, and features the song Sanvean, performed by Lisa Gerrard.
Although mentioned in the pilot episode, this is the first time that the Bartlet's eldest daughter Elizabeth appears in the series.

Famous quotes containing the word production:
“The development of civilization and industry in general has always shown itself so active in the destruction of forests that everything that has been done for their conservation and production is completely insignificant in comparison.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
“Perestroika basically is creating material incentives for the individual. Some of the comrades deny that, but I can’t see it any other way. In that sense human nature kinda goes backwards. It’s a step backwards. You have to realize the people weren’t quite ready for a socialist production system.”
—Gus Hall (b. 1910)
“To expect to increase prices and then to maintain them at a higher level by means of a plan which must of necessity increase production while decreasing consumption is to fly in the face of an economic law as well established as any law of nature.”
—Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
