Title
A "cold hearted" person is someone devoid of sympathy or feeling. This applies to Count Vertigo, who plots to let his 10-year-old niece die, and kill Kid Flash if necessary, in a coup d'état. Vandal Savage also plays a part in this scheme. Also, Kid Flash is imbued with the mission of collecting and delivering a heart to save Perdita's life, while the episode takes place during a (staged) snow storm that dampers Kid Flash's efforts.

Trivia
- Number 16:
- Wally's alarm clock goes off at 07:16.
- Half of the clock is covered by a piece of clothing, showing only 16 minutes.
- Wally turns 16 years old.
- Wally teleports to the Cave at 16:05 EST.
- Kid Flash arrives to Boston at 16:26 EST.

- Kid Flash's cross country run to deliver a donor heart is based on Flash (Volume 2) #1 (1987). In that story, Wally had to deliver a heart from New York to Seattle on his twentieth birthday, and encountered Vandal Savage along the way. However, in that story, Savage's presence was a coincidence, not a planned delaying tactic.
- Ariel Winter and Steve Blum reprise the roles of Perdita and Count Vertigo from DC Showcase: Green Arrow, written by Greg Weisman. Vertigo paraphrases his line from the short, "Count Vertigo to you, peasant" (which was also used in his first appearance in "Revelation").
