* The special effects team uses a gasoline mixture that is referred to as "butter" to make the sets burn so realistically.

* A lot of time was spent on the fire for this episode. Two sets of the Bennet house were used - the original house and the burned version. Now both sets are gone!
* All the doors that flew of the house in the explosion were connected to wire cables precisley controlled by the special effects team. The wires were digitally removed in post production.

This is a blow, especially the loss of Parkman's [[ability|abilities]]. I underestimated Ted's

Maybe a chance to salvage some of this. I need your help more than ever.
