This episode is aired immediately after the Halloween episode. The discussion by the men from the town in the first scene establishes that they are hunting deer after the snow melt. Therefore, the two episodes are set about six months apart.
When the Indians visit the town to confront the men about the shooting, the chief is draped in the American flag. He is wearing it as a symbol. He believes that justice is for all.
Dr. Quinn is wearing a fancy low cut dress while she removes the arrow from Horace's arm. The dress is inappropriate for the clinic and the low neckline is more revealing than a chaste, professional woman from an elite family of Boston should wear.
Chef Black Kettle has an American flag draped over his shoulder. It was a gift from President Lincoln.
The Reverend is clean shaven. Jake shaved his beard off during the previous episode.
