I kept waiting for the actress to say, "Skye, I am your mother"
The money was too good. I got stupid.

I kept waiting to care what was happening with Skye.

I'm finding Skye a bit more interesting now than I expected to in the beginning. I think her shooting Wade sort of moved her into the "characters I care about" column.

It still miffs me that the show revolves around Skye to such a degree, but at least with the Inhumans storyline there's a plausible reason for it (as opposed to Skye being a special snowflake because she's an ace hacker who can... look someone up on facebook).

I have to wonder what Skye's mother is up to. I found her...performance towards Skye very forced. It was overly saccharine. Seriously, I think Dichan Lachman is a very good actress, but it was like she was missing her beat in every conversation. I can only conclude the storyline is being written that way to play into Skye's fantasies of what she wants her parents to be.

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 have a feeling that Raina's "clairvoyance" is going to reveal Skye's mother to the others.

Yeah, I don't trust her at all, and I don't think KM's character did anything that she didn't tell him to do.

I've always thought Dichen Lachman has all the acting talent of a cigar store Indian, so she's actually been outperforming expectations for me in this role.
