This episode provides examples of:

  • Bedmate Reveal: Angela and Mary, the photographer's wife.
  • Establishing Character Moment:
    • Richard Harrow is first seen in the hospital, meek and awkward. Then he starts listing the arsenal of firearms he owns and detailing his sniper exploits.
    • This episode introduces Meyer Lansky, who gives a very articulate (but dishonest) business proposition, handles a failed attempt very gracefully, and muses about the future importance of the petroleum industry. This all establishes him as a shrewd and business-minded gangster.
  • Facial Horror: Richard Harrow lost his left eye and the left side of his face in World War I, forcing him to wear a crude looking half-mask with face-like features.
