Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Also, the woman with razors glued to her fingernails was the world's most unimpressive super-villain. I also don't understand why SHIELD wouldn't just cut the blades off rather than putting her hands in that weird contraption.

Or just use a dremel.

Same.

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

That made no damn sense at all.

That effect was cool as hell. It felt like something out of Skulduggery Pleasant.

I didn't expect his mouth to get all stretchy!

There's no reason for that, except to look scary. His vocal cords were what were changed. And I thought the kids were dead.

As he was opening his mouth to attack again, my thought was "This would be an excellent time for a bullet to the forehead."

The synchronized headphones was amusing.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

And I thought the kids were dead.

Didn't Coulson say that his weird vocal thing caused catatonia in anyone (anything) who heard it? The birds probably died, because once they went catatonic, a fall like that would kill them. But I thought the kids were just catatonic.

I guess I don't see the high peril in catatonia that presumably will wear off.

And yeah, the woman with the blades on her finger tips was kind of stupid.

As I said upthread, Drea de Matteo deserved a much better role.

Wasn't the explanation something like she grafted those onto her fingers in her lab because of an abusive boyfriend? So, she's not an Inhuman, or genetically altered or anything. She's basically someone who decided that Lee Press-on Razors would be better for self-defense than a gun or pepper spray.

My thought when I saw her was that I went to high school with girls who could do more damage with their salon fake nails.

I wasn't sure if her boyfriend did it to her or she did it to herself. I suppose they could have left them on if she refused to give permission for their removal. I guess she's classified as Aggravated Crazy.

They said she did it to herself.
