Ah. That. Well....HEY, LOOK OVER THERE!
Way, way over there.
Xander: I still don't get why we came here to get info about a killer snot monster. Giles: Because it's a killer snot monster from outer space. I did not say that.

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

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Ha, Jessica! I was actually pleased with Simmons's pipetting.

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!

(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.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
I didn't notice the red blood cells-for-nerve cell switch, but I was rolling my eyes at the pipettors with tips attached sitting in the stand. Then, again, I'm used to molecular biology lab stuff being done wrong.
(I still remember an episode of the X-Files where Scully was running a gel-can't remember if it was a Southern blot or sequencing- in an improbably short amount of time. )
