Summary
Continuity
The Cauldron of Life is introduced in this episode. In "Cloud Fathers", we learn that Xanatos has melted the Cauldron down to rebuild Coyote.
Xanatos reveals his desire to become immortal in this episode, although there were hints of that ambition in "City of Stone Part One".
Owen Burnett's fist is turned to stone in this episode, and remains stone for the rest of the series.
Tidbits
"The Price" was initially aired out of order, on October 12, 1995, between "Outfoxed" (which initially aired on September 28) and "Revelations" (which initially aired on October 26). A side effect of that was the jarring effect of seeing Owen with a normal hand in "Double Jeopardy" and "The Cage", which appear in this schedule to be taking place afterwards.
This story was inspired by the Lee Nordling's Gargoyles story "Stone Cold" from Disney Adventures, which used the core concept of a gargoyle in stone sleep being kidnapped and replaced by a lookalike statue (though the gargoyle in Nordling's story was Goliath).
In the original screenplay, Goliath and Lexington, during their visit to Macbeth's mansion, had a run-in with Banquo and Fleance (both feeling perturbed by their employer's mysterious absence). This scene was changed in the televised version to Goliath and Lexington facing Macbeth's automated defenses instead.
Hudson makes the only reference in the entire series to bathroom functions when he calls the Cauldron of Life an "oversized chamber-pot".
