Nothing particularly amusing to say about an episode dealing
with wife-beating. Almost interesting facts: Kate Trotter and Kim Coates later
return to the show playing different parts. Trotter, of course, becomes
Capt. Karen Simms beginning with the third-season opener "Rite of Passage,"
and Coates plays Seletine, the fruitcake from Tartarus, in the
fourth-season episode, "Time Prisoners." Also, today's episode marks the
first appearance of Calista Carradine as the ever-annoying Cheryl Hines.
