But she was trying to pass as an insider at first, right? I mean, when she met the one dude and then started schmoozing him about his family based on the info that May and Fitz/Simmons were feeding her, she was trying to pass as one of them. Maybe she didn't realize she didn't have to try to pass until she talked to Super villain dude and he revealed that he knew that she'd hacked her way in and had allowed her to come because he wanted to recruit her? That was a little confusing for me, but I don't really care about Skye so I didn't worry overmuch about it.

My favorite moment was Coulson saying "that wasn't the off switch" and then being yanked sideways right before the commercial break.

We need more quippiness. Firefly's second episode broadcast was the eminently quotable Our Mrs. Renyolds. This show needs more of that.

Firefly found itself faster than most shows. Settling in around episode 3-5 seems pretty common. And this one does have some young actors who haven't been given a lot to go on for their characters yet.

I did like May talking about Coulson sacrificing himself for the Avengers and Coulson muttering "And my card collection."

I also got a kick out of Fitz implying that Skye used her looks to get Quinn to let her into his office, then trying to back-peddle when pressed on it before just giving up and saying "Boobs".

I think someone made a comment along these lines upthread: [link]

Well, at least it won't do a Firefly on us. Also noticing that it hasn't been preempted (yet).

The ratings have been good, so ABC is very happy.

I wonder if Pretty Boy villain will be back this season. He was kind of fun.

The actor reminded me of Tahmoh Penikett, in that sort of strong-jaw-he-clenches-while-delivering-lines way. Then I looked him up on IMDB and realized he was the cutie on Relativity way back in the day.

I'm still not feeling it for Ward or Skye, individually, and for damn sure not together.

I had a long post - but my ipad ate it.

to sum up. It is becoming my show . I think there are enough questions about the characters that are interesting , without getting in the way of the action . ( fitz and simmions - grown in a lab) . I don't really believe anything Skye and Ward say to each other - they both lie to get people to do things.

I knew nothing about gravitron. After reading what others said , I am finding it interesting that they are taking the cartoon violence and making it more real. Shades of things to come.

What we don't have yet , is the quick back and forth. Not just the dialog, but that ablity to snap you from one emotion to another. I like it , but I don't care enough yet.

(a) Damn straight, women can't pee into a bottle in a van.

(b) I take back some of the bad things I said about Superman -- for a second, I was thinking, "Who's this guy with the glasses?"
