This is the first of sixty-four episodes of Stargate SG-1, Stargate: Atlantis and Stargate Universe directed by Andy Mikita.

The room where the real SGC personnel is suspended from the ceiling looks like the gate room set with closed blast doors and a bit of redecorating (the briefing room window can also be seen).

The Stragoth came from P3X-118 impersonating SG-6 needing medical attention but during the conversation between the two impersonating Major General George S. Hammond and Dr. Janet Fraiser, Fraiser referred to the Goa'uld as "the dominant parasitical species of this galaxy". This may indicate they came from another galaxy and are searching for a new home. Their infiltration of Stargate Command was an effort to evaluate the planet's potential for livability before an invasion.

Major Samantha Carter leaves Cheyenne Mountain through what appears to be the same shaft that Colonel Frank Cromwell used to gain entry in "A Matter of Time". She justifies the low security at this shaft to the viewer as "The base was designed to keep people out, not in", and the Mountain was experiencing time dilation in the other episode.

In the beginning of the episode, SG-1 discusses the Harcesis child, a key component of the season three episodes "Forever in a Day", "The Devil You Know" and "Maternal Instinct".

This entire incident was stricken from official records, meaning most people who were not present at the time, even those with full knowledge of the SGC, do not know about it. This becomes a key plot point in "Smoke and Mirrors".

An alien Foothold situation of Stargate Command is a key part of "Proving Ground", and the Mimetic imaging device appears again in "Smoke and Mirrors".

Carter escapes the mountain through a hatch in the silo that isn't even locked! Anyone wandering by outside could just open it up and enter Cheyenne mountain! What lazy writing.
