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

I'm thinking less about the height and more that they'd already be something like 10km away from the spot where Simmons jumped out.

Ah. That. Well....HEY, LOOK OVER THERE! t /runs away

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Ah. That. Well....HEY, LOOK OVER THERE!

Way, way over there.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Ha, Jessica! I was actually pleased with Simmons's pipetting.

Compassionately intolerant

At this point they have to be fucking with us re: ROBOT

Seriously!

"I'm a little rusty." "Heavy on the iron."

Sheesh.

Apart from that, I liked this episode best of all. Which makes me very happy because the last episode nearly had me breaking up.

I loved Simmons telling Fitz that he was the hero, and his expression right after she left was heartbreaking.

I really liked getting their backstory. In, like, three lines, their whole relationship made so much more sense. The fact that they'd been science buds BEFORE S.H.I.E.L.D. explains a lot.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

In the Gravitron episode, didn't they mention they had had Dr. Gravitron as an instructor at university?

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.

One day they will show electrophoresis on television.

HA!

"Why are you surfing the Internet? There's crime to be solved!"

"I'm waiting for the gel to run."

(I totally noticed the implausibility of him catching her in the air, too, but I was still in the midst of reminding myself not to science too hard at a comic-book-based TV show!)

Ah! Possibly.

"Why are you surfing the Internet? There's crime to be solved!"

"I'm waiting for the gel to run."

That is also implausible. Truly, she would be mixing the buffers to be ready to run the gel again when it inevitably fails.

I'm still voting cyborg.

I find it interesting that everyone who hasn't been enjoying the show that much thought this episode was fabulous. Since I have been adoring the show, but thought this episode was just okay.
