That was bugging me, too! Glad you thought to look her up. I liked her in that episode.
Mighty fine shindig.

Her voice kept poking at me, and I knew people would be making a huge fuss if it was Martha.

I knew it wasn't Martha (Freema Angyman), but I had the vague feeling she might have been in UNIT in one of the episodes. At least I had her in the right TV show.

I mistakenly thought she was the actress from that sleeper episode of Torchwood.

I admit to finding Agent Weaver a rather hateful person in this episode. Kinda wanted her to be one of those Jaiying used for her lesson. I'm not proud.

I want her gone too, but not enough to set off more "They're killing off women of color!" outrage.

This is kind of dumb, but i wish Lincoln was named something else. He does not compare favorably with the Lincoln on Fringe.
Bobbi stabbing Ward with the needles that had been under her fingernails is the best thing I’ve seen in a while.
Hard to believe that adrenaline really seemed like a good idea when Simmons knew very well what he already going on, but love Cal falling off the bed to transform. Classic.
“You’ve been busy and you’re not a quantum physicist, it’s completely understandable” is a great line that I should drop into conversations.
Good call sticking with the axe, Mac.
WTF on that ending.

Agent Weaver makes me think of her character from Pushing Daisies. Which makes me rather fond of her.

Am I the only one who thought the needles might be the "Needles of Fire" that Quentin Tarantino used on Alias ?

re: Weaver, I guess my love for Coulson may have colored my annoyance at her arguing with him. But at the same time, he was elected Director, lady. He's your boss. I doubt she was that disrespectful to Fury, and apparently she didn't think Fury was fit to be Director. (I know she doesn't respect Coulson either, but since she was all about electing the director...)
(although now that I think of it, I bet most of the fake!SHIELD people didn't have a problem with Fury until Hydra took over, and then maybe they decided to blame Fury so they didn't have to think too hard about why they themselves missed all the Hydra infiltrators.)
