Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Agreeing with everything everyone else said. I also saw the Coulson Matrix backbend. Hmmm. Also, I had to use on-screen captions to understand the Geek Twins.

I also loved the callback to the original "Nick Fury, Agent of Shield Story" at the end.

What was this? The voiceover said "You won't want to miss the very end!" and then my DVR cut off, so maybe I did.

My problem was this: the Centipede thing was Extremis, and Coulson gave Fitz-Simmons 2 hours to figure out a way to fix it. But wait. Didn't Tony Stark already do that when he fixed Pepper? Are we to assume that Iron Man 3 hasn't happened yet? Are we to assume that Fitz-Simmons together are as smart as Tony Stark? For that matter, am I to assume that the T-1000 is as good an espionage agent as Romanoff? Because I don't think so.

But I liked the episode. The snark and the funny and the Coulson. I'm in.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Damn, I missed Matrix!Coulson.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Didn't Tony Stark already do that when he fixed Pepper? Are we to assume that Iron Man 3 hasn't happened yet? Are we to assume that Fitz-Simmons together are as smart as Tony Stark?

Isn't it not just Extremis, but super soldier serum and everything that they know of that makes supers, so nothing from before would work?

For that matter, am I to assume that the T-1000 is as good an espionage agent as Romanoff? Because I don't think so.

He's a more convincing fighter, so I'm willing to give him credit.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I enjoyed, and definitely agree with this:

I mostly didn't like Secret Agent Guy, but the bit after Coulson shot him up with the truth serum made me think that I could come to like him.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

The Grr Argh guy was silent, but he was back on my TV!

Yes!

I'm hoping he knows more than Cobie knows he knows.

Me too!

I am willing to believe that Tahiti is a magical place.

"It's like magic. But it's science" was good. "You're the bad guy and I'm the hero" seriously hurt. Loved the truth serum gambit, very clever. The round all-purpose spy gadget thingy from the beginning was very cool.

am I to assume that the T-1000 is as good an espionage agent as Romanoff?

Best espionage scores SINCE Romanoff is what he said. So, no, I don't think so. But good.

brillig

the repetition of "Tahiti is a magical place" has to mean something.

It doesn't have to. The cheese does not wear him. So to speak.
