I think the next actor to be called into the office should probably worry. They call in Brett Dalton - "Oh yeah, you're Hydra now." They call in Chloe "Oh yeah, you're evil and mind controlled now." Who's next? Simmons gets called in "Oh yeah, you can't make delicious sandwiches anymore."

I think they already called simmons to tell her that they wanted to make an entire ep about her stranded on another planet.

I worry about mack , personnally

 

[Zero-ELEC]

Finally watched it, t'was a good episode.

Random thoughts, ideas, stray thoughts and stuff in no particular order follow:

• It's kinda laughable how ineffective anyone outside of the Team is in S.H.I.E.L.D.
• I like Lincoln's Cole Macgrath powers. Looks neat.
• I kinda tuned out the whole scene with Fitzsimmons talking about space, did I miss anything?
• Anyone else find the Spanish kinda stilted?
• It's neat to see a character feel bad for killing a dude. Everyone else is so casual about it.
• It was obvious that Joey and Yoyo were like communism.
• "I met Gods. Gods bleed." #ItsAllConnected
• I like the visuals for Yoyo slingshotting. The "jump" is neat.
• The moment they figured out it was Lincoln, I figured it was Daisy. It was obvious, since we actually saw Lincoln not get turned in front of Hive.
• Haha, I can skip through election news! Suck it live viewers!
• Skaisy got out waaaay too easily. Again, all of the S.H.I.E.L.D. mooks are super ineffective. I mean, sure, she's a master hacker who programmed all the security measures and probably added a back-door for her or something but that's me handwaving it, that's not really explained in the show.
• Man the Secret Warriors were short-lived.

 

[Jason Frost]

I have a feeling that today's whole conversation was foreshadowing Simmons or Fitz's death in space.

"Now space finally has something beautiful in it."

*whispering high pitched no*

 

[Cuburt]

They will find a cure, use it to cure Daisy, and use it to kill Hive, leaving Wards healed body and memories alive.

Calling it now. It's how the show runners are going to get Ward back.

That's what I was thinking after this episode as well.

The seeds of the resolution seem to all be there: Mind control parasites do no permanent damage, they need to find a cure but don't have one yet, and Ward was dead but his body has been healed due to Hive's regeneration ability. The cure with likely be the only way they can defeat Hive and since it's a cure, it might "cure" Ward as well.

Not only that, these last few episodes have me convinced that they won't scrap Ward just because his body is being used as a vessel for Hive since it doesn't even feel like a good place to end the character. Coulson killing him on that planet was better. Him being Hive, even with Wards memories resurfacing in the last few episodes, still feels like a poor resolution.

But lol if they really kill him off and next episode's Skyeward moment is some preemptive apology to Skyeward shippers.

 

[Jorok Goldblade]

Lash still has a role to play in this as somebody's weapon, but whose is the question.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Daisy being infected was a nice swerve ball. Thought for sure she'd be the one with plot armour and to some extent she will have plot armour, but it was nice to see them take a risk and make her the infected one.

 

[Dalek]

Really great episode. I really love the Secret Warrirors team as well. Daisy bringing the base down as she left was really an oh shit moment.

 

[neorej]

She went IN.

Good for her. And him.

 

[Beren the Empty-Handed]

[*]Skaisy got out waaaay too easily. Again, all of the S.H.I.E.L.D. mooks are super ineffective. I mean, sure, she's a master hacker who programmed all the security measures and probably added a back-door for her or something but that's me handwaving it, that's not really explained in the show.

She literally had a line that said she did that. She designed the security so she knew how to bypass it.

 

[Moaradin]

Last ep was fucking great. Totally didn't see the Daisy thing coming. That episode felt like the season finale...

 

[Famassu]

At first I suspected YoYo since she had gotten those wounds and I thought maybe those would be an easy way of Hive to infest someone. Then I wondered if Metalmelting-Man might've gotten some Hive-infestation on him when he killed that Eye-freeze dude. But I started to suspect Daisy pretty soon after things started escalating. I wasn't dead certain, but she was a bit too eager to leave the base suddenly when they were all in the same room. It was pretty obvious later on that Electro-Boy was just getting mad & frustrated as he's wont to do and wasn't being controlled by anyone/-thing. YoYo & Metalmelting-Man were a bit too genuinely freaked to be likely candidates at that point.


It was a good idea to not watch this show for a few weeks. Watching four episodes in a row is a much better way to watch this than one episode per week.

"Now space finally has something beautiful in it."

No. I will never watch another Mutant Enemy production if that happens. I'm still pissed about the Winifred/Illyria and Wesley situation.

 

[Danthrax]

If Daisy and Ward make out next episode that'll be some Purple Man shit

Next Ward will have people hanging themselves and slitting their own throats and letting him live in their condos

 

[Fuu]

Can't wait to see how Squidward will spend Malick's money.

 

[Sadist]

I wonder what an exiled inhuman parasite would spend his money on.

Hookers and blow are out I guess.

 

[JustinBB7]

The cross in the space shuttle or whatever makes me think it's Mack sacrificing himself for yoyo.

Tentacle porn

 

[kurahador]

The cross in the space shuttle or whatever makes me think it's Mack sacrificing himself for yoyo.

Yeah, but that would be too obvious just like Yoyo being the one to die due to the necklace.
I'm thinking it's either Hive and Lash, with a jacket floating.

 

[StarCreator]

Yeah, but that would be too obvious just like Yoyo being the one to die due to the necklace.
I'm thinking it's either Hive and Lash, or it's just a jacket floating.

Since it was seen in one of those death visions, the implication is someone will die up there. So far, the only one not to play out exactly as seen was the first one Daisy saw (and even then, there was still a death, so maybe it played out like it was supposed to, too).

 

[strafer]

This show is gnarly for a PG show.

 

[Qvoth]

just watched the episode, holy shit
shit finally got real for this season

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

Hive had the chance to infest Lincoln but changed his mind when he entered his brain and found nothing there.

 

[aBarreras]

i didnt like how fast Yo-Yo started to hate everybody, i mean, i know things are hard on colombia and you dont trust any goverment, but not all the freaking things are black and white, SHIELD proceed as they should

 

[J.G.]

Hive had the chance to infest Lincoln but changed his mind when he entered his brain and found nothing there.

Fucking lol. Coulson, do your fucking job and stop watching BvS over and over!

 

[Zomba13]

Gets addicted to Hearthstone and blows it all on card packs.

 

[DXLelouch153]

Gets addicted to Hearthstone and blows it all on card packs.

with Geerya saying in the background
cmon boss we gotta go
and Hives all like just one more card pack

 

[Funky Papa]

Third excellent episode in a row. You can tell AoS is reaching for a finale when the overall quality ramps up like crazy out of nowhere.

Goddamnit.

Can't wait to see how Squidward will spend Malick's money.

Also, Squidward is great. How have I been sleeping on that nickname.

Spoiler

The end of "A Hole in the World" absolutely destroys me.

 

[Broken Joystick]

Lol that gif is awesome and just found the vid where it came from.
http://youtu.be/z8xibZF5src

This deserves a better quality of gif.

Edit: Bonus, just Ward's reaction.

 

[kirblar]

Shit about to get real.

One of FitzSimmons is so dead.

 

[Cuburt]

Nice. Civil War tie-in does seem to play out how people suspected with the Inhuman involvement.

 

[fallengorn]

The descriptions are vague, but I'd spoiler tag them.

 

[anaron]

People need to get over Fred's "death."

There was nothing definitive about it and Illyria >>>>>>

 

[NobleXenon]

I looked at the casting for the episode titled

Spoiler

"Failed Experiments."

Beside the usual ensemble, there are

Spoiler

"Kree Reaper 1"

and

Spoiler

"Kree Reaper 2"

in the listing.

I hope the episode goes more mytho.

 

[Quick]

The only way to solve the Hive problem is for Fitzsimmons to hook up.

It's the only way.

fuck this, since Civil War hits the theaters on april 29 here in mexico, we are out schedule, we should watch first "Failed Experiments" but that will air like 5 days after the movie, damn.... should i wait until i watch the episode?... last year, as soon as i watched the episode before AoU i went to the movie and it was awesome,

 

[NobleXenon]

It should be easy to cure the infected Inhumans. A quick google result gave me this:

Oral antifungal drugs currently in use include itraconazole, fluconazole, ketoconazole and terbinafine. They are reserved for extensive or severe infection...

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

So is the new plane already dead?

Ooh this is nice.
Saving this much higher quality gif now :3

It's the only way.

Hive infests their unborn child before Lash kills Ward's body.

Now what.

 

[Jason Frost]

Hive infests their unborn child before Lash kills Ward's body.

Now what.

The baby will be born with super powers and it will be the true savior of the MCU in a near future.

[Geist-]

Only just now watching the new episode, but can I just say that I was really sad to see what happened to Malick's daughter. I thought she was going to be a great character, maybe a regular eventually. Man, that death hurt more than I was expecting.

 

[Zero-ELEC]

Can I say how much I appreciate the whole "You're a spy, learn Spanish." bit? Because I do.

I have a feeling that today's whole conversation was foreshadowing Simmons or Fitz's death in space.

"Now space finally has something beautiful in it."

Now I hope this happens. Just to fuck with people.

 

[wildfire]

Not to mention any implications of HiveWard trying to Date Daisy while she is technically being mind controlled.

Don't knock HiveWard's Turn Around game.

 

[CaviarMeths]

Just caught up and this episode had some great action in the front half, fantastic tension and twist in the back. One of the best episodes yet, easily the best of the season.

And damn, Lincoln was surprisingly cool in this episode. I might actually have to start liking him.
