* WhatCouldHaveBeen: The original script was much, much darker. Samantha Wildman would die and then be brought back, but in the spirit of this trope, not brought back right - becoming what the scriptwriters termed "zombie mom". Connected more with death than life, she would find it hard to re-integrate with the crew, and struggling with her new identity would decide to kill her own daughter to bring her back the same way, so she would have someone who could relate to her. The writers were initially thrilled with the prospect of a dark, macabre and humbling episode - but upon reading their own script realized they could not film it; it was far too dark and entered territory nobody was comfortable with.
