Trivia

When they arrive at the airport on March 19, 1983 Rufus refers to an episode on tv of the A Team. He says it's season 1 episode 13 the Beast From the Belly of a Boeing...live (meaning first run). That episode aired May 3rd. It couldn't have aired on March 19 anyway because the A Team aired on Tuesdays and March 19, 1983 was a Saturday. Most likely they chose that episode because this was also season one episode thirteen of Timeless. As an aside, the episode of Diff'rent Strokes with Nancy Reagan that is shown is correct. It did air on March 19, 1983.

Quotes

Wyatt Logan: You asked me what Jessica would think about all this. She'd be horrified. Honestly, I wonder if I can look her in the eye. But she's going to be there and she's going to be alive.
