"So let me get this straight. You placed a bet in the ship's pool that Captain Puto here would cause the destruction of Unity... Well I know Puto's command skills need improvement but surely they aren't that bad"

— Lewis

"WOW! Alien controls!"

— Puto

"Sorry, commander, but my commanding officer cannot accommodate you!"

— Prax

"Lets kick some Rakelli butt!"

— Puto

Trivia

• This episode was filmed and released in January 2005.
• Up until the last minute, Prax's name was going to be "Plat", but this seemed a little flat and dull so the name of a villain from a Star Wars computer game was used, and hence, Prax is now the character's name.
• The first scene filmed is where Prax gives a damage report after Unity One Starbase is rammed. It took many takes.
• The episode was re-edited into its current form in January 2006 after the producer's editing equipment improved. Several new scenes were filmed and others were re-shot. A new starting scene was also added.
• This episode was re-mastered again in July 2007 with improved visual and audio quality and new scenes.
• "New Order" was re-mastered once again in December 2008, improving effects and visual/audio quality even more. This version is now considered "official Unity canon".
