Let's see, Fury recruited Phil out of high school. A thousand Military Coulson fics just got Jossed. Though he didn't say anything about *how* he was recruited.
Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I don't remember Coulson saying when Fury recruited him, just that he did. (Though I could have missed it.)
Ward did say Garrett recruited him at 17.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
He said Fury recruited him out of high school, in the scene where he was putting the SHIELD badges into the safe behind his desk.

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.
So...why exactly did they hike 7 miles in the snow when they've got Lola the flying car?!
So very tired of the Ward/Skye nonsense. But I am glad they didn't go the route of Coulson losing it.

At least it actually serves the plot now, giving Garrett a way into the hidden base etc. And the previews make it look like Skye gets a clue next week.
Fitz is desperately jealous of Tripp, isn't he.

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

Super.
Like Kalshane, I find evil Ward more interesting, but Brett Dalton isn't really wowing me with Grant Ward vs. "Grant Ward."
Gravitonium is a really stupid-sounding name.

I wonder if Hydra will object to Garrett not being a true believer. Telling the guy he looked like a Texas cheerleader will not enamor him to the faithful.
And when is someone going to say "I wonder if Tony Stark has any cool gadgets that would be of use. Like, say, Jarvis?"

I didn't realize Garrett was based on a comic character. Which explains that mysterious metal plate.

That was Adrian Pasdar playing Major Talbot? I completely did not recognize him!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I didn't either. Nice.
I find Evil Ward much more good-looking.
I liked this episode. I'm very interested to find out what Garrett actually wants - he doesn't seem to be into Hydra's goals, who knows of anything he said as the Clairvoyant was true (and "change the world", what does that mean? Could be anything). And I feel for Coulson, trying to be a Good Guy when he has so little idea what is going on or who he can trust.
