Overall this episode was all about continuing to link the importance of saving Shield to save the world by travelling through time to various moments in shields past. In this one they end up in 1960's Rosswell, New Mexico which was an experimental Shield research and development facility. We see that the Shield science division is on the bleeding edge of technology as they proudly show off a massive cumberson wrist watch radio with a foot long antenae, a massive EMP device that they proudly brag about blanking out all electronics over a 30 meter range. It was hilarious to watch and I wanted to see Coulson stealing tech for his collection.

a bit pedantic but; mid 50 Groom Lake Nevada (near area 51), and at the beginning of the episode they hear the radio say something about the all new 55 car, i didn't catch the model, at first I thought it might have been a call back to L.O.L.A but i looked it up and thats a '62.

I'm really enjoying the season, but missing the fitz-simmons angle to the team. I like that they are hugging the main continuity of the overall MCU a little tighter than the past 3 seasons right now, and I think they have set themselves up nicely to bump into Bobby/Ward.... towards the end of the show.
