- TriviaNana Visitor performed the song "Fever" herself.
- GoofsNear the middle of the episode, right before Jadzia has a conversation with Julian in the turbolift, another Starfleet officer passes Jadzia in the corridor and acknowledges her with a "Lieutenant". Jadzia is a Lieutenant Commander, and as with modern day naval convention, the correct informal greeting would be "Commander".

Featured review
Typical holodeck episode
We have seen tons of holodeck episodes in TNG. Deep Space Nine luckily kept those episodes to a minimum. Because once you are in a holosuite, everything can happen which often makes the episodes quite pointless (the exception to this rule were the TNG Moriarty episodes).
In this episode Odo gets advice from a Swing singer that likes to sing Sinatra songs. Bashir programmed this hologram in a way, that he is aware of himself as a hologram and also seems to be quite eloquent and experienced with love and life matters.
Of course Odo needs practice in how to convince Kira of him and in the end the showdown happens and both have dinner together while Odo thinks, Kira is just another hologram and thus opens up to her and shows a more relaxed side of his.
I doubt that Kira would have reacted like she did in the episode though if she found out that Odo used her image to basically practice how to charm her in real life. She surely would have felt tricked. It is similar to someone stalking you to find out everything about you and then use this information to play a charade on you.
