In part II, there would be a rape scene that involved McCall, but Stepfanie Kramer objected to it, since she went through with it in season 2 with Rape and Revenge, parts I and II. She wanted nothing to do with that and Fred Dryer backed her. In the end, the scene was modified.
During the scene between Stacey (Lezlie Deane) and Scar Face (Hank Stone) in the motel room a poster for the band Iron Maiden can be seen on the wall over Stacey's right shoulder. The photo was taken during the 'Somewhere on Tour' tour (1986-1987) to promote the album Somewhere in Time, released in September of 1986.
In this part Judge Unger, who it has been established is involved in Satanic rituals, has a Rottweiler called Damien. This is clearly a reference to the film Damien: Omen II in which the boy Damien has a Rottweiler representing and undertaking Satan's work.
