Episode Notes

 * This episode is based on content from Chapter 49: A Monster Among Men and Chapter 50: In the Belly of the Beast.
 * The Transmutation Circles that appear in the episode title card are Roy Mustang's Flame Alchemy circle and a simple circle often attributed to Alphonse.


 * This episode marks the first appearance of the Homunculus Pride in the 2009 anime series. In the manga, Pride appeared earlier during a fight between Ling, Lan Fan, Envy and Gluttony which was omitted from this production.


 * Envy arrives at the scene of the fight disguised as a dog in this episode, whereas in the manga, his form was that of a horse. Additionally, when disguising himself as Lan Fan, the manga version has Envy using her masked form while this episode uses her unmasked and injured form.


 * In the English dub King Bradley (Wrath) knows that Ling and his comrades come from Xing. However, this is one of many dub errors, as Ling did not mention this fact to him yet.
