I had a thought last night that maybe Skye's mysterious 084 power is the ability to enthrall people, and that maybe the reason her village died was that they were fighting each other to the death over her.
I think my subconscious really wants this show to take the Mary Sue trope and burn it to the ground. (Because otherwise Ward repenting his evil HYDRA ways for love of Skye is just annoying.)

Indeed, that would be awesome.

My conscious wants this!
(my subconscious just wants everyone to be happy and stop fighting)
(my subconscious is a bad writer)
I'd be perfectly to see Agent May demonstrating her awesome fighting skills.
It occurred to me ... brainwashing Ward ... is there really that much to wash?
It's a point in his favor when evil masterminds are looking for likely targets. "What about Ward? Good ROI, there, we wouldn't have to expend too many resources to brainwash him. Heck, just a brain rinse should do it."

CerebroFebreze.
Snerk.
I still have a funny feeling (cue Anya singing) "It could be a bunnies!" Or just a big, fat fake out. Which will probably be the end of me and AoS.
I have not loved it as much as I wanted to up until now. If something firey and permanent does not happen to Ward...well, I'll be in a huff, at the very least.
Jessica,
your thought has me laughing and laughing and laughing.
The look on Ward's face reminded me of the reveal in Babylon 5 that Garibaldi had been unwittingly working for the Psycorps.
This is minor, but I wish people accepted the whole Hydra thing just one step more slowly. Like, if someone told me that half of the NSA was Nazis, I would have to say, "Wait, like
actual
Hitler-type Nazis??" first.
