    Could've been great

    Could've been great. Rufus, Speaking to the black law man who would become the model for The Lone Ranger: "if you don't tell your story, someone else might... some white dick in a mask might end up the legend instead of you".

    Thank you Timeless, for once again ruining what could've been a great episode with liberal racism.

    • Trivia
      The Lone Ranger's house is the same one as Zelena's on Once Upon a Time (2011).
    • Goofs
      At the end, Lucy discovers that she was accidentally caught in a photograph taken at the event. However, the camera technology of that day was so crude that people had to stand still for a few minutes while the photograph was being taken.

      She could not have been taken by surprise by the photographer, especially since she is shown looking at the camera, and would have known what was happening and had time to get out of the way.
    • Quotes

      Rufus Carlin: So this U.S. Marshal's the guy that the Lone Ranger's based off of?

      Lucy Preston: That's what they say. Bass Reeves was responsible for over 3,000 arrests in his career. Arguably the best lawman in the Old West.

      Rufus Carlin: If he's that good, why doesn't the town come to him for help?

      [Seeing Bass Reeves for the first time]

      Rufus Carlin: The Lone Ranger is black? That's... awesome!
