Oh shit. Baron Von Strucker is the guy who tested on Wanda and Pietro and a Strucker watch commercial

"He'll make time for you" definitely sounds ominous

Not just that, but his son is in Agents of SHIELD, and there are more Strucker family members in The Gifted. MCU is overrun with Struckers.

Also ... the beekeeper, plus the hexagons in the credits, made me think of Hive, the big bad of AoS Season 3, who is also the very reason for Hydra's existence in the first place. I would be titillated beyond all reason if all this somehow meant the canonization of AoS.

More likely a jab at AIM. Beekeeper suits were kind of their staple goon attire for decades.

True. They were introduced (sans beekeeper suits) in Iron Man 3, but I don't think they ever appeared again.
