[edit] Trivia
- The title of this episode is a play on words to the movie Mrs. Doubtfire, who's lead character also went in disguise.
- Is the second appearance of the demon Barbas.
- Inspector Darryl Morris discovers that the sisters are witches.
- Dan offers Piper the opportunity to move in with him as his girlfriend.
- The character Bane Jessup later appears again in the episode Give Me a Sign.
- Originally, actor Richard Grieco was scheduled to fill the role of Bane Jessup. However, actress Shannen Doherty objected to the casting and was quickly supported by fellow actresses Alyssa Milano and Holly Marie Combs.
- Prue receives the ability to astral project in this episode, though her astral form is solid and not ghostly, which is the usual case in astral projection. Opinion: This is probably because she is unknowingly using her telekinesis to make her form solid, which would explain why she couldn't use her TK for other purposes while projecting her astral self.
- In Season 1's episode From Fear to Eternity, the Book of Shadows reveals that Barbas can only come to Earth every 1300 years, but seeing as it has only been almost a year since his last visit, it would be impossible for him to be back. This happens again in Season 5, 6, and 7.
- Piper learns how to unfreeze one person in a room.
