The R.E.T.C.O.N. Device is where you initiate retcon, i.e. start your game once over. It is installed in your Workbench at your Hideout once you complete Cat and Mick-y Mouse Game.

You check in with Susan again, who says that this device ought to allow you to go back in time to the moment you received your talisman, at which point you'd have a second chance to try to set things right in Twilight. In greater detail she explains it's not time travel so much as a rewind button, so there won't be any issues with you running into multiple copies of yourself, but you'll be starting out in very nearly the same circumstances as before.

However, Susan also says that depending on how you choose to calibrate the device, she can continue to monitor your progress from this end of the time continuum, and occasionally send back items from this point in time to where you're located. There's a lot of talk of windows and synchronization that you don't really follow.
