Trivia
- The opening preview contains a very unusual edit of the regular theme music, effectively starting near the end, and then cutting into another piece of music.
- The "Lahaina Hotel" is fictional. No scenes were actually filmed in Lahaina, or anywhere else on Maui for that matter.
- Castle Memorial Hospital in Kailua is used as a filming location.
- Josie Over (Hotel Desk Clerk) makes her first of four appearances on the show. A local actress, Josie has appeared in over a dozen episodes of Hawaii Five-O and will later appear in a handful of episodes in another popular TV show filmed in Oahu, Jake and the Fatman (1987-1992).
