Behind the scenes

 * SS Humphrey Bogart is clearly named after Humphrey Bogart.
 * The phrases "Play it again, Sam," "Here's lookin' at you, kid," and "This could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship" are references to lines in the 1942 film Casablanca. Two of the lines differ slightly as Bogart actually says "I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship" at the end of the film and "Play it again, Sam" is never actually said in the film. Ingrid Bergman says "Play it Sam, play 'As Time goes By' but the line "Play it again, Sam" is never actually said.
