This would all be so much more dramatic if I cared whether she lived or died.
Truth. I just don't care about these folks. I *want* to, but I don't. Although I am looking forward to next week.
So, the T.A.H.I.T.I. (I am never typing that out as initials ever again) thing -- was that half an alien in a tube? Was Coulson (and apparently Skye) injected with alien goo?

That's what it looked like to me.
Suggestions as to the acronym? Our guess was "Take a hint -- ingest that ialien" (sounds like "alien" but with an Australian accent).
I am now deeply troubled as to which Australians you've been listening to.
I enjoyed the episode, though I have no idea what's up with the dead alien goo. It's like they were just trying to find something even creepier than the brain-surgery bot.

Writers' room:
"Okay, folks, what's creepy?"
"Ummm...I know! Alien!"
"What's creepier than an alien? Yes, you in the back?"
"HALF an alien!"
"HALF an alien!"
In the apple you just bit into!
I'm afraid my reaction was "Yay, Coulson's not a clone! Huh, that's icky. I guess decent folks are supposed to horrified by this." Though finding out that the organization/man you work for has an agenda similar to the Cigarette Smoking Man's would be upsetting.

Selling out the world due to misdirected rage at failing as a pulp writer?
Yay, Coulson's not a clone!
I actually said, "What is that? ...is that a Coulson clone? ...HALF a Coulson clone???"
Tim: "You can't tell an alien when you see one?"
Me: "Not HALF an alien, apparently."
Tim: "It doesn't even look like Coulson!"
Me: "You'd look weird if you were cut in half and stuck in a jar, too!"
