* At the end of the episode, Bashir notes that recovering from a Lethean psychic attack like he did is a very rare occurrence which Garak attributes to Bashir's mental fortitude. Given the later reveal that Bashir is in fact a genetically enhanced human it's very likely Bashir's enhanced brain was a factor in him being able to successfully fend off the attack.

* That a typical Cardassian murder-mystery would assume that everyone is guilty, with the mystery being who is guilty of what, makes sense. First of all their society is rife with intrigue, so everyone in a position to matter would indeed be 'guilty' of something as part of the wheeling-and-dealing needed to get ahead. Secondly a Cardassian trial runs on the presumption that everyone brought before the court is already guilty: the trial involves [[TheSummation laying out this guilt for the public]].

* Mental!Altovar is articulate and insightful, whereas the real deal (and the Lethean we see in a future episode) acts more like DumbMuscle. That's because Mental!Altovar isn't the real thing, just a construction drawing off Bashir's own mind, as demonstrated by its access to his memories.
* While it is never stated which aspect of Bashir's personality Quark represents, it's pretty easy to infer based on their interactions. First he sees Quark huddling behind the bar terrified of Altovar, warning Bashir he'll kill them if they try to move, and the next time he's having people placing bets on when Bashir is going to die. Thus it's pretty easy to infer Quark is probably Bashir's cowardice and self-doubt (O'Brien is self-doubt in an outward, pessimistic sense).
