Judith Barsi played the dying child Debbie Oppenheimer. This was her final acting role to be released before she and her mother Maria were murdered by her father József on July 25, 1988, only nine weeks after this episode aired. ABC Afterschool Specials: A Family Again (1988), Земля до начала времён (1988) and Все псы попадают в рай (1989) were all released posthumously.
The title is based on Abner E. "Abby" Singer who worked as a production manager and assistant director in film between the 1950s and the 1980s. His name has become famous in Hollywood as a phrase describing the second-to-last shot of the day. This show is the second-to-last of the series.
Stock shots from The Towering Inferno (1974) are used for the building fire.
This is the last show for Denzel Washington. The final shot shows the elevator doors closing as he leaves St. Eligius for another position.
