Continuity
- Spike's storyline deliberately parallels Angel's storyline in the Season 1 premiere, City Of.
- Spike met the real Doyle when he visited Los Angeles to retrieve the Gem of Amarra, but never actually learned his name, allowing Lindsey's ruse to work.
- Lindsey dresses in clothes resembling Doyle's when posing as him.
- Spike simultaneously stakes two vampires with concealed stakes from his sleeves, reminiscent of Angel's tactic.
- Much like when Numero Cinco stopped being a hero, in Angel's dream world he becomes the new Wolfram and Hart mailman

Famous quotes containing the word continuity:
“The dialectic between change and continuity is a painful but deeply instructive one, in personal life as in the life of a people. To “see the light” too often has meant rejecting the treasures found in darkness.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
“Continuous eloquence wearies.... Grandeur must be abandoned to be appreciated. Continuity in everything is unpleasant. Cold is agreeable, that we may get warm.”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
“Every society consists of men in the process of developing from children into parents. To assure continuity of tradition, society must early prepare for parenthood in its children; and it must take care of the unavoidable remnants of infantility in its adults. This is a large order, especially since a society needs many beings who can follow, a few who can lead, and some who can do both, alternately or in different areas of life.”
—Erik H. Erikson (1904–1994)
