Summary
Tidbits
Jack Dane from Revelations returns to become a member of Tomas Brod's gang (he ought to have stayed in the Witness Relocation Program), apparently out of hostility towards Tony Dracon and his family.
There are a number of allusions to past episodes here, including not only Protection (with Broadway proudly boasting about how he helped put Dracon behind bars) and Golem (with the return of Brod and his hovercraft - though the question remains unanswered as to how he recovered it), but also Her Brother's Keeper (Lexington recalls his flying the Pack's helicopter) and The Price (Broadway's turning to stone in mid-air during the battle with the Macbeth robot is recalled).
According to Greg Weisman, the events in Vendettas and Turf took place more or less simultaneously (See Timeline for further details), indicating that Goliath and Hudson's absence was due to their fight with Wolf and Hakon's ghost. This doesn't explain Bronx's absence, however. Greg hints that the gargoyle beast was having an adventure of his own at the time.
Elisa's alias of "Salli" is another in-joke; she was voiced by Salli Richardson.
Brooklyn's question to Goliath, "So when do we get our world tour?" was designed as being a foreshadowing of the Timedancer spin-off. (Like Goliath in Future Tense, Brooklyn really ought to learn to be careful for what he asks for.)
Though Lexington is as eager at pursuing Angela in this episode as Brooklyn and Broadway are, in fact (again according to Greg Weisman), he's actually gay - a revelation that would have been handled very carefully in the series had it continued under Greg's direction. Presumably, Lex must not have realized this at the time of Turf; it does help to explain, certainly, why he wasn't as upset as Brooklyn was in The Journey when it became clear that Angela had chosen Broadway.
