Second two part episode; the first is Death Stalks the Big Top (Part 1) & Death Stalks the Big Top (Part 2).
The title is taken from a famous line in the fairy tale of "Snow White" where the evil queen asks her Magic Mirror "magic, mirror, on the wall, who's the fairest of them all?" The basket of poisoned apples Eudora has also is a reference to the story.
the line of “Magic Mirror on the wall” is often misquoted as “Mirror Mirror on the wall” hence the confusion with the episode name.
Lew Bracken compares Eudora to several real life mystery writers, such as Agatha Christie (known for Hercule Poirot & Miss Marple, who served as an inspiration of such for Jessica), Dorothy Sayers (creator of Lord Peter Wimsey) & P.D. James (creator of Adam Dalgliesh) Of the three, James was the only one still alive at the time of the episode (she died in 2014).
