Rufus jokes that smuggler/racer Wendell Scott made the Fall Creek run, "...in less than 12 parsecs." This is a reference to the famous Han Solo line from Звёздные войны. Эпизод 4: Новая надежда (1977) about the Kessel Run. Wendell also has hidden smuggling cargo compartments in his car that Wyatt and Lucy have to hide in at one point, much like Han Solo did.

While smuggling Wyatt and Lucy into the racetrack, Wendell calling Rufus his cousin George is an amusing in-joke; in addition to Rufus, his character from the "Bill & Ted" films, George Carlin is Rufus' namesake.

The car driven by the sleeper agent is called 'Lucille', which can be seen on the rear of the car during the chase. The name Lucy can be short for Lucille. Lucy is the female lead in the show and the so called 'princess of Rittenhouse'.

This series is almost endless with possibilities and things are getting very interesting and deep. I can't wait to find out more about Jiya's visions. I love how they reveal bits and pieces each episode which just creates more questions and Carol (Lucy's mom is really caught in a pickle) she loves Lucy but Lucy is the enemy of Rittenhouse which causes Carol no end of worry as a mother. She acts tough but no way she is going to let them hurt Lucy. Will she ever get her sister back. So much to look forward to and all the cool places we visit each week. Enjoy.

Another great episode that is nicely building up. Timeless has successfully managed to move beyond the face off with Flynn to an even bigger conspiracy that involves Rittenhouse. Using previous stories they have weaved together an even more interesting premise and tied previous events together.

This great show manages to even make car racing interesting. One of the enduring wins is the very likeable characters and chemistry between the three. I think they should hold off on the inevitable romance between Wyatt and Lucy for a while. The ongoing vibes but greater focus on the mission, internal conflicts and challenges make for better writing and episodes.

Once again I can't wait for next week's episode.
