This episode is actually the first episode in the show's storyline, with Anne leaving home and moving to New York. For some reason, it was the second episode aired. Viewers were likely confused because Anne meets Donald in the first episode aired; however, in this episode, she hasn't met him yet.
Ted Bessell (Don Hollinger) does not appear in this episode.
Ann Marie's first apartment appears to be the same apartment from Barefoot in the Park movie starring Robert Redford and Jane Fonda.
The wood burning stove shown in the living room of Anne's new apartment is the same as the one shown to occupy the living room of Rob and Laura Petrie on The Dick Van Dyke Show. Both shows were produced by Desilu Studios.
