Notes[]
- Casting: Michael Shanks suggested Aleks Paunovic, actor and part-time boxer, for the part as the diukon Duke; being a boxer fit into the character's violent nature.[1]
- Name: The Duke's actual name is found listed in a police report seen on Henry Foss's computer screen when Henry investigates the abnormal mob. His name is seen on the file in two pieces; as Steve "T and Scott, S which arranges as Steve "The Duke" Scott.
- Reference: The name "Steve Scott" is based on the actual Steve Scott who is the Series Art department graphic designer for the show's graphics; his work includes Episode 2x09 - "Penance" which is how his name appears on this graphic 'prop' as he likely was the person who created it.
