[edit] Background Information

  • The title of this episode is Spanish for "bad water". The same Spanish phrase is also used as a slang term for the Portuguese Man-of-War, which is a particularly venomous species of jellyfish that can be found in the Caribbean.
  • In early drafts of this episode's script, the monster is not a sea monster but one that is loose in an abandoned cave with a gold mine inside it.
  • Evan Shipley is wearing a Miami Dolphins number 13 Dan Marino jersey, but with the name "Shipley" displayed in capital letters on the back.
  • A poster for the film The Great Escape can be seen in George Vincent's living room.

[edit] Nitpicks

  • In the scene that shows Mulder arriving at the door of George Vincent's apartment after hearing gunfire, there is clearly no clip in Mulder's pistol.
  • When Mulder and Scully are in the laundry room of the Shipleys' house, Mulder is carrying a small flashlight and Scully is carrying a large one. In the next scene, Scully is suddenly carrying a small flashlight.
  • When the sheriff is walking down the halls of the building (checking for residents), a crew member can clearly be seen, shutting a door behind the actor portraying the sheriff.
