Another mooted plotline for this episode was for Dominique to embark on an interracial romance. This was dropped at this stage but was resurrected early in Season 6 when Ken Howard joined the cast as Garrett Boydston.
The three-piece embroidered black sheer evening gown that Alexis wears on her date with King Galen was unusual in that it wasn't a Nolan Miller creation. Instead, it was designed by Fabrice.
The original plan was for Blake to give La Mirage to Dominique after Claudia lost a huge booking. For some reason, this plot was dropped, with Dominique essentially sitting out the rest of the season on the sidelines.
