I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

In the flashback, did anyone notice a vibe between Mack and the guy who was shot (Tim, I think)? I'm not just saying that from an impulse to slash random characters; it felt vibey. Plus Bobbi specifically said to Mack "I'm sorry about [Tim]." Tons of SHIELD agents were killed that day, many of whom Mack and Bobbi knew, but she specifically mentioned him.

It could be nothing, but it kind of jumped out at me.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Major slash pairings have been built on far less.

It just seemed canonical to me, but I may have been imagining things.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I didn't catch a vibe between them, so although the expression of sympathy did seem noteworthy to me, it could just as easily have been for Mack's handler or longtime partner in the field rather than the bedroom.

Skye ran to the panel May told her about to bring down the laser fence. I have no idea why she needed to do that, since Not!SHIELD was already apparently inside said fence, so it clearly wasn't doing its job, but she wasn't just blindly running into the dark.

Not!SHIELD flew in, though. So maybe the fence was still a prob for foot traffic.

Well, Lloyd Bridges is no longer available.

LOL...man, I'm old...

I totally forgot about Deathlok!!!!

"The tiger's already been loose." And a million fangirls (and boys) shriek in delight and say "Yes, it has!"

edit: "I just wanted to see your face." Phil, you troll!

I knew Fitz and Simmons were up to something! Ha! And I think Rodriguez may lose Bobbi with his talk about "it" and "freak."

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.

That was darn fun.

...am I just totally not remembering Skye's mom getting put back together??

I don't think so, but between Cal's surgical skills and her healing, it makes sense. I'm starting to feel sorry for him. Yeah, mad as a bag of cats, but his goal has always been Daisy/Skye.

I totally called the booby-traps and "need a cooperative Phil Coulson" thing. Assuming that wasn't doubletalk on Fitz and Simmons part.

I need to go back and rewatch; my roommate insisted on talking at me throughout most of the episode. I cut her slack, though, as she got some not so good family news and needed to get it out of her system. Good thing I bought a season pass on Amazon.
