We did get another "Tahiti is a magical place." It's only the second episode, though. They have to lean on things to get the attention of the average viewer, who unlike us doesn't watch every second with hawklike vigilance. The average viewer might have picked up on "magical place" after hearing it in two episodes.
Can't figure out why Coulson would be programmed to respond to a trigger word with a repeated phrase, though. Unless that's so they can later distinguish Android!Coulson from the Real Coulson.
It could also be an unavoidable side effect. Not all resurrections are consequence free.

Maybe implanted fake memories are a lot more shallow/redundant than transplanted real ones, or contrariwise are so much stronger/hardwired so that there's a Pavolovian response when they're referenced?

ooh, I like that one.

I'd like the show to either divorce itself entirely from the shadow of the movie (so, no more offhand references to Stark or Thor or Cap), or commit more fully. Where my other Marvel characters at?
Ward is really irritating.

Thor: The Dark World opens in the US on November 8. I'm pretty sure we'll have tie-ins, probably the same week. Captain America: The Winter Solder opens April 4.
Isn't part of the premise no superheroes? I like the middle ground, myself. What life is like for the 99% of people who will never see one, but ripples will wash over their heads even if they don't know it at the time.
