Trivia[]

  • The production code number for this episode is #3LAY14.
  • A promotional image for the episode was accidentally released during the press release for the previous episode, "The Taking of Dispatch 9-1-1".
  • Ryan Guzman (Edmundo Diaz) had his cousin, Randy Hudson, a combat veteran who did five military tours, hired as a technical advisor for the flashback scenes of Eddie's time in Afghanistan. He also wrote a bit of the script.[3]
  • The well that Eddie is lifted down was 10-20 ft tall with 3 ft width. According to Ryan, "You need a harness to get down but usually harness are meant for you to lean back and it takes most of the weight on your backside. But he couldn't do that... and because of that all of the weight had to go straight on my groin. As they lowered me down I’m having 185 pounds go straight on my groin. I had to do that for three different takes. Needless to say, I had to tell my girl, “I don’t know if we’re having any more kids.”[3]
  • The well incident is based on the real-life rescue of Jessica McClure (also known as Baby Jessica in 1987) when she fell into a well in her aunt's backyard in Texas. It took about 56 hours for first responders to be able to rescue her, and it gained worldwide attention.
