Jediknight April 6, 2016 Share April 6, 2016 That was a really good episode. "We interrupt this post to bring you this breaking news. We here at ABC have learned that humans breathe oxygen." Loved Coulson saying Lincoln was off the team for not seeing Terminator, that's a perfectly reasonable response. The training was great as well, had to laugh at May telling Simmons to fall over. And the final 10 minutes or so was some of the best work this show has done. 6 Link to comment

Lantern7 April 6, 2016 Share April 6, 2016 Credit to ABC . . . we didn't go past 10, even with the interruption. Still unnecessary to cut into the episode, where a rolling banner would have been just as affective. Unless a candidate is taking hostages, I'm not interested. So . . . Charles was Christopher Walken in The Dead Zone, except the other person shared the vision? Okay, then. It was okay. I'm dealing with a lost tooth, so my attention was a little diverted. We'll see Andrew again . . . five seconds after Lash gets killed. Total speculation on my part. I was trying to pay attention . . . was there any spoilers from Captain America: Civil War hinted at? I heard that was supposed to happen, but once again . . . lost tooth. Not a fun day for me. Link to comment
Senna April 6, 2016 Share April 6, 2016 In this episode: Ward learns of the Matrix. (But really, that jacket ...) Andrew surrendering himself to SHIELD felt a bit anti-climactic right after we saw how hard May and Simmons are looking for him. And other than Andrew and the team seeing not!Ward, this episode felt a bit filler-ish. So the guy was supposed to see a vision every time he touched someone, and he only ever saw visions that ended in death. Unless he was responsible for the deaths in some way (and I guess this was the case in some of them), it's a bit much. I wonder if he tried heavy duty gloves? (It looked like every vision involved skin to skin contact.) Plastic wrap? (Suddenly I'm thinking of the show Pushing Daisies!) I would've appreciated more details about his trying/failing to escape and outwit his "gift." 5 Link to comment
ottoDbusdriver April 6, 2016 Share April 6, 2016 The whole fight scene/rehearsal was just a re-hash of a very similar scene starring Daisy last season. And it seems rather dubious that the bad guys would be in the same place every time. 2 Link to comment

benteen April 6, 2016 Share April 6, 2016 This was a good one. I like the way that it played out. Coulson telling Lincoln he was off the team for not seeing the original Terminator was funny.

mac123x April 6, 2016 Share April 6, 2016 Fitz made a comment about wondering what would happen that would prevent May from going on the mission. I was wondering that too, but Andrew turning himself in was not even remotely on my list. That was a nice surprise to see him again, and for May to reach some sort of resolution to some of her issues. I wonder if he tried heavy duty gloves? Rogue in the X-Men has to wear gloves to prevent unintentionally putting the whammy on someone, and she seems to cope with it. But X-Men are owned by Fox, and they probably have the patent on wearing gloves... yeah that doesn't make sense. I realize the dude was seriously traumatized by his new abilities, but he didn't have to abandon his family if he'd taken those kinds of precautions. "He'll never hold his daughter again [tears]". Well, maybe not, and he certainly shouldn't touch her until he's figured out the right precautions (e.g., are wool gloves enough or does he need neoprene), but not being able to physically touch her doesn't mean he can't be part of her life. I wonder if Daisy will reassess her "being Inhuman is awesome!" attitude now that she's seen yet another person whose transformation wasn't all puppies and rainbows - there's some opportunity for character growth there, though I doubt it will happen. I'm guessing that the only thing that carries forward from this episode is her vision of the reused footage from the mid-season opener flash-forward. I really hope this is the last season for any incarnation of Ward. I thik Brett Dalton is going for the "zen-like deadly calm menace" thing, but he's just not getting there. 3 Link to comment
Jack Kerouac April 6, 2016 Share April 6, 2016 Borrrring. Coulson letting Daisy go on the mission was incredibly stupid. If you REALLY want to break the future chain of events, don't let her go on the mission NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS. It's really that simple. What did sending her accomplish? The guy died anyway; Daisy murdered like four guys and then she got the crap punched out of her on a rooftop. Good thing she showed up! And why didn't Malick just knock her out and take her with him? SquidWard could have thrown some fairy dust at her and made her his willing accomplice. Why not do that? 8 Link to comment

I think they were going for a MMA ground and pound killing shot as opposed to Captain America, Agent May or Bobbi merely knocking someone out with one punch or a kick.

The problem becomes that she immediately becomes part of the Hive and now Mallick has seen something of the future, probably he is not destined to worship and live with Hive/Ward as an Inhuman supremacist, and is only seen as a useful dupe by Ward/Hive. So they have to find a reason to keep Daisy from getting too close to Ward/Hive's power Link to comment
shrewd.buddha April 6, 2016 Share April 6, 2016 (edited) I saw the first fifteen minutes - up to the part where Daisy-Skye touched homeless guy and glimpsed the future. Then I started dozing off and caught the end where Skye-Daisy was lying beside homeless guy and got another jolt of future shock... I remember seeing May talking to Andrew and Ward talking to Mallick - - basically a lot of talking, leading to sleepy times .. Dammit, what is it with this show? It feels like when you try to date someone who checks all the boxes, seems perfectly fine on paper - but every time they start talking, your mind starts drifting. You look at them talking but you start thinking about other things ... such as, why is Skye-Daisy wearing a leather jacket with studs on the shoulders? Why is SHIELD headquarters so dark and every monitor screen saturated in red? ... Eventually you start coming up with lame excuses for not being able to hang out, like needing to fold clothes or clean the stove (and sadly, you would actually rather be doing those things) .. And finally you say some crappy thing like "it's not you, it's me" .. because you just can't figure out why things are not clicking.. even though you really wish they were. Almost every scene feels as if I'm watching the actors reciting their lines and hitting their marks -- even the action scenes. It is all very competently done and everyone seems to be giving it their best effort ... but I just never feel engaged in the world I am being shown. Is it just me? Why don't I get this same feeling of indifference when watching things like Daredevil or Jessica Jones? It's weird. Edited April 6, 2016 by shrewd.buddha 2 Link to comment

Now I really wish that that had happened, if only because it would actually make the show mix things up. This points to one of the problems with AoS : characters do not act or react in ways that seem logical or organic -- such as when Daisy takes out ( presumably, killing) -- four or five no-name fighters in a shoot-first-ask-questions-later mode. But as soon as the enemy played by an actor the audience recognizes comes onto the scene, suddenly it becomes "the script is telling me to talk first and not shoot." Almost all action shows do this, but the better ones manage to do it without it seeming illogical and non-realistic. ..The same thing applies to Hydra's People-Scooper-Upper Machine, which apparently has no means of being stopped or tracked by SHIELD. Logic would lead one to wonder why Hydra doesn't just scoop up everyone that is a problem for them: Skye-Daisy, Lincoln, Coulson, etc. But they don't, because ... the plot wouldn't like it.

KirkB April 6, 2016 Share April 6, 2016 So let me get this straight. Hydra was originally created back in the day in order to return this big bad Inhuman to Earth in order for them to take over the world. To do this they had to amass vast wealth, power and influence, with people entrenched in nearly every government in the world. Or, as monsterWard (Is this guy ever going to have a name? I mean, I know he has a comic one but so far he doesn't on the show and that's all that really counts). more succinctly put it, they already more or less rule the world, what more can he really do for them? And then Malick is surprised when the Ward of all Evil (or Weevil as I have just decided to call him) turns out to have an agenda of his own, which has nothing to do with Hydra. Evil is so stupid sometimes. 6 Link to comment

Yes, I have to agree. A lot of the characters really don't act in logical and/or organic manner. I wonder if the writers are deliberately writing like this because Marvel might have them limit the amount of plot/material, until a major movie comes out. But then again, you have scenes where we have Fitz explaining why visions of the future can't be changed while the movie didn't even mentioned the Time Gem yet. Where was Mack? Has Henry Simmons been off filming something else? Because aside from the spring opener and last week, he's been either totally absent or barely on this entire season. According to the promos, the character is coming back next week. As with the in-show explanation, is that he took some time off because of what happened to Hunter and Bobbie. Although, I have not heard anything about Henry Simmons doing filming for other material. I imagine there will be many expressions of futility and nihilism in the SHIELD offices this week.

So, the character is almost 30 freaking years old but acts more like she is 14/15 years old). Second, her character totally flip-flopped to not only liking her powers but wanting more of her people to become Inhumans. As with who is inhabiting the Qinjet, it could be Daisy.

And also let's not forget that the team totally forgave her for spying on them and trying to release their secrets online.

Evil is so stupid sometimes. I thought for a while that SquidWard was going to go someplace really interesting with his questions for Malick. As Iron Man pointed out to Loki, Earth has 7 billion very independent people. What good does being their forced leader get you? Nothing but an ongoing headache. SquidWard had a good point that money and political influence already get you pretty much anything you want. But then SquidWard dropped the ball and went down the boring, cliche path of "power is the feeling of being able to kill people with your bare hands," slightly more effectively than normal humans can. Really, what good does that do in controlling the 7 billion? Sure, SquidWard and Charlie got that CEO to sign over his company, but Malick could have done that himself, with any combination of his money, getting a corrupt agency to break up the company, or, as he did with Talbot, threatening the man's family. The psycho thrill of up close and personal horror show killing seems rather ... petty and banal, for the product of the centuries long cabal wanting world domination. I was hoping for a much more unique and, well, alien understanding of power. 5 Link to comment

I loved Coulson's "you're off the team" after Lincoln said he hadn't seen the original Terminator. I'm glad they know about Ward and now we can all move on. And thankfully Fitz said right away, "I don't think that's Ward." Also SquidWard is kind of annoying but not as bad as plain old Evil Ward. Less talky more evil plan-ny, mkay? Malick is more annoying than Ward nowadays. 4 Link to comment

Does SHIELD have a dress code where all clothes must be 50%+ black? I think the SHIELD team is being outfitted by whomever came up with The Gap's Everybody in Leather campaign. why is Skye-Daisy wearing a leather jacket with studs on the shoulders? And why is she wearing a short-sleeved jacket with a really long-sleeved sweater? I'd swear that was the same leather jacket she's been wearing for a long time now except for some reason they chopped the sleeves off by a few inches. It looked very strange. There's a chance that anything alluding to Special Snowflake Syndrome is strictly off-limits. Then again, Fitz and Simmons were supposed to be holding hands in the snow. But the weather wasn't cooperating. So to fulfill the vision they had to be standing amidst (you guessed it) special snowflakes. Link to comment
thuganomics85 April 7, 2016 Share April 7, 2016 Really don't understand why Malick didn't just use that opportunity to kidnap Daisy. I guess it was his arrogance getting the better of him, but he really could have dealt a huge blow to SHIELD if he did; if for nothing else, Coulson would spend every opportunity and resource to find her and leaving everything else ripe for the taking. Still, Daisy might almost wish she was kidnapped, once she comes back and Melinda finds out Old Man Malick kicked her ass. I mean, sure, he was helped by the power of robotic arms, but getting a beatdown from Powers Boothe of all people, would be a humbling experience, I imagine. Not a huger fan of this type of episode, because it is always obvious that nothing is going to change, so it's just a waiting game to see what happens that causes the future to remain the same, no matter what. It was never in doubt that Charlie/homeless guy was destined to die. And that there would be a logical reason why Coulson would be "shooting" Daisy. Andrew is back briefly, but it seems like he's Lash for good, which isn't surprising since I heard Blair Underwood found another show. At least the show seemed to acknowledge that Fitz' attempt to explain time with that stack of paper, was too dense, and everyone was basically like "Fuck it!", when he was done. One of those times where I really missed Bobbi/Hunter, because I bet Hunter would have been hilarious in that scene. Mack too. I missed Mack. Look on the bright side, Coulson! At least Lincoln didn't actually say that Terminator: Genysis was the best of the franchise! That would have gone past booting off the team, into throwing him in a cell, because he clearly would have been part of Hydra if he said that! Lincoln was better here, although I still laughed when Inhuman Wo Fat casually use his powers to smack Lincoln in the face with that fire extinguisher. Wo Fat just really had a "Don't even have time for you, buddy!" look for that entire scene. SquidWard (ha! Love it!) really much have been a huge fan of The Matrix films, during his time recovering. I'm just surprised ABC hasn't tried in cross-promotion here with other Disney vehicles. Maybe next week, he will have binged Star Wars, and he'll just start dressing like Kylo Ren. 2 Link to comment

Not that the show's version of Dyker Heights even remotely resembled the real neighborhood, but it isn't someplace that one would know about if they were born and raised anywhere else. 2 Link to comment
