Am I the only one getting a vibe that Rosalind/Phil is inevitable? (Although since it seems inevitable, the show will probably subvert that.)
Tim and I were riffing on the show last night -- he asked if Simmons and Tripp had been flirty or he was just imagining it. And I said, "No; Simmons wanted a piece of that! ...actually, I think ALL the characters were hot for Tripp, because DAMN."
And then we concluded that all the characters were hot for May as well but also terrified of the idea AND therefore, even though they hate Ward and would kill him on sight, they all grudgingly admire the fact that he had sex with May.
I'll get Tim writing fanfic yet.

Oh no they're definitely pushing that.
Oh no they're definitely pushing that.
As the head of another agency, Rosalind is probably the only person he can plausibly be involved with. They won't make it simple, and we've yet to see if Phil is using his charm as a cover. I don't put it past him to romance the enemy.
My guess is that they will get together and then one will be forced to or choose to betray the other.
That sounds about right.
Or Rosalind becomes Inhuman or something.
The cellist will be very put out. Well, unless she took fish oil supplements and turned into Illyria.
I still wish May got to use Ward as a punching bag. Maybe someday ...
I did love seeing Bobbi fighting again.
Someone pointed out elsewhere that the mystery man who "helped" Kid von Strucker was a member of the World Security Council in the first Avengers movie.
Oh, that's why he looked familiar! I was wondering if he was a known factor in-universe, or I just recognized the actor from something else.
I glad that was pointed out, he looked and sounded familiar, but I didn't recognize him either.
