And with Agent Carter being scheduled for the winter hiatus, I could see some interesting parallels developing, with building SHIELD in her show and Phil et al rebuilding it in theirs.
Ooh, I like the sound of that!
Well, personally, I kind of want to slay the dragon.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I vote twin.
I never heard the brother line. That's helpful because my mind immediately went to clone.
I need help with the night writing. Didn't Garrett do that too? Where did I see that code before? Did Garrett infect him or something?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Bonny, I think it means he is having side effects to the alien blood. Not as bad as Garrett, but something.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Yes, Garrett did it too. It's likely connected to the alien blood.

I'm thinking that recipients of the drug are picking up bits of alien knowledge, and the recipients can't handle it. This may be where Skye's difference comes in, she'll be able to interpret it and save Phil from going as mad as Garrett. Phil's sense of duty may be stronger than Garrett's megalomania, which should hold him saner for longer.
Which is a good juicy arc for Season 2, what are the results of the drug, how is Skye different, how did Raina hook up with Skye's parent, is Phil going nuts, how do we recreate SHIELD, how do we save Phil?

Ah.
Thanks so much for the through-line. I totally missed that detail.

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.
There's been speculation that if the blue alien is Kree, the compulsive writing is caused by a connection to the Kree Supreme Intelligence.
Going back to Ward and the dog someone on another site pointed out the parallels between the dog and Fitz/Simmons. He couldn't bring himself to kill either while looking them in the eye, needing to distance himself with the rifle/turning his back to dump the container.

With FitzSimmons in the box, when Simmons said "We're going to die in here," I said, "Time for the wild monkey sex." When some of them mentioned monkeys, Hubby said, "Well, there's the wild monkey sex."
Gemma is so going to yell at Fitz for being noble and giving her the air!

In addition to the sassing, Season 2 needs more of May kicking ass. Really.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I don't buy the worry about Fitz. If SHIELD can give Coulson the fake TAHITI memories, surely they can repair a little oxygen-deprivation brain damage.
