- Harsher in Hindsight: Vixen O'Shaughnessy's character arc (the daughter of a prominent figure winds up involved with a violent revolutionary group) eerily foreshadows the Real Life story of Patty Hearst.
- Values Dissonance: Two of Jim's lines when he's lecturing Vixen on her Wide-Eyed Idealism might make contemporary viewers uncomfortable.
- Jim confronts Vixen on her willingness to let the residents of the fort be slaughtered by stating that "the Indians are experts at creating suffering".
- After Vixen is captured, Jim says she'll go back to her school for girls so she can "return to the feminine fold".
