On the last day of shooting, Nana Visitor ruined several takes because she couldn't stop crying, especially during Vic Fontaine's rendition of "The Way We Look Tonight".
The idea to include some of the show's recurring actors as extras was Ira Steven Behr's. As Cecily Adams (Ishka) says, "It wasn't like Ira was asking for a favor of us so much as he was including us in a very special time. I felt honored that they included me. I was thrilled to be there."
James Darren got all choked up when he had to sing "The Way You Look Tonight." He commented "They picked a great song. All of the lyrics have a double meaning. From now on, whenever I sing that song, I won't be able to think about this night, because I'll never get through the song."
The party in Vic Fontaine's, filmed on the last day of shooting features cameo appearances from various producers, writers and other members of the production crew. As well as various actors from the show without their prosthetic makeup, like Jeffrey Combs (Weyoun & Brunt), Casey Biggs (Damar), Aron Eisenberg (Nog), J.G. Hertzler (Martok), Cecily Adams (Ishka), Max Grodénchik (Rom), and David B. Levinson (Broik).
Avery Brooks (Commander/Captain Benjamin Sisko) is the only actor to appear in every episode of the series.
