* FridgeHorror: Given that Drusilla is a SexSlave, if Kirk slept with her in the SexyDiscretionShot she wouldn't have been able to say no -- not that she seemed overly anxious to.
* FunWithHomophones: The 'Sons of the Son/Sun' confusion only works in English. 'Filius' is Latin for 'Son', while 'Solis' is 'Sun.'

* HoYay: [=McCoy=] accuses Spock of being afraid of his own emotions, which leads to this exchange:
-->'''[=McCoy=]:''' Why, you wouldn't know what to do with a genuine warm, decent feeling.
-->'''Spock:''' Really, doctor?
-->'''[=McCoy=]:''' ''(beat)'' I know. I'm worried about Jim, too.

* ArtisticLicenseHistory: Bones keeps nagging at the idea of the "sun" faith, saying it doesn't make sense because "Rome had no sun worshippers". [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sol_(mythology) The hell they didn't!]] Spock claims later that solar worship was usually a "primitive superstition-religion"; believers in Surya, Shamash and the numerous Egyptian sun deities (among many others) would have a great deal to say about that. This is Gene Roddenberry's work again: he thought all religions were primitive superstitions we would dispense with in The Future.
* GeniusBonus: Flavius Maximus isn't many letters away from a similarly-named Earth Roman Empire commander, who won much advantage by knowing when ''not'' to fight.
