Ward walking back to his hotel room, standing at the door. Mae walks up to hers across the hall with a bottle of liquor, they look at each other, and she goes in leaves her door open. He walks in and closes the door.

Thanks. Yeah, i wasn't paying close attention at that point since the resolution had already taken place. I did look up in time to catch the dream. 11/21/2013 11:19:21 PM |

I think Ward and Mae likely still had pent up adrenaline/rage and needed to let it out. They hinted at it earlier in the episode when Ward was smashing the punching bag, she said she could help him release his frustration, thought it was pretty obvious she was trying to suggest they hook up.
This was one of the best episodes so far, mainly because they actually focused more on existing Marvel lore/characters/plots, instead of just random technology/threat. Wish they'd focus more on having it mesh in with the existing movies and/or Marvel Universe and have threats/characters that Marvel fans want to see. 11/22/2013 1:04:54 PM |

Amen to that. My wildest hope is that we may one day see Taskmaster. 11/22/2013 5:42:41 PM |

They have indicated they will have an episode that crosses over with Captain America: The Winter Solider since that movie deals so heavily with SHIELD. So hopefully we continue to see more integration of the show and movies over time. The show is cheesy at times, but honestly I find it to be a fun watch each week nonetheless. 11/25/2013 9:33:45 AM |

So they just brought him back to life using technology and that's it? Why hide that from him? Why not just tell him "You died and we had to do some pretty crazy surgery on you but we brought you back to life. It was traumatic so we gave you a memory of something happier." 1/9/2014 3:04:39 PM |

I can imagine , "hey we poked around in your brain with a crazy spider robot because you were dead" is a pretty tough sell for most people 1/9/2014 3:46:15 PM |
Wraith All American 27257 Posts user info edit post |
Not necessarily, that's just the most advanced technology for the operation and it got the job done. Hell it even implanted a nice memory for him. Compare it to laser eye surgery or something -- "We're gonna shoot a super powerful laser directly into your eyeball and at one point you may even smell your own eye flesh burning. You will be awake for the entire procedure." It isn't too far off from the creepy spider thing. People don't care what the result is given the end product.
Besides, they wouldn't have to go into that much detail regarding the specifics of the actual surgery. Just tell him that he did in fact die, they had to use some weird technology to bring him back, but they did it. If he asks more questions, tell him.

^^ Could be a Kree. Ronan the Accuser is apparently going to be in the Guardians of the Galaxy

So Ward was pretty much raped on the last episode and it isn't even mentioned. What a double standard. If it had been a male Asgardian with the power to seduce any woman he wants and he used it to sleep with Sky, the media and women's groups and stuff would be all over it. Instead, Mae just punched him in the face like it was his fault.
Aside from that, great episode. One subtle thing I'm glad they included-- when the SWAT team went to the Las Vegas hotel room, all members of the team were female. They didn't go out of the way to show it but I'm glad they did it. 3/16/2014 11:16:54 AM |

Really good episode tonight that took place during the events of Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Even the last scene completely caught me off guard. I'm actually looking forward to the next episodes for the first time in a while. 4/8/2014 10:25:17 PM |
LudaChris All American 7946 Posts user info edit post |
I was told that I should see the new Captain movie before watching this latest episode...is that true? I wasn't planning on seeing the new movie anytime soon, so I'll likely watch it anyway, just didn't know if it would really matter or not as far as the storyline. 4/9/2014 1:50:29 PM |
omicron101 All American 3662 Posts user info edit post |
Yes, see the movie first. This episode will assume you've already seen it and know what's happening. Although chronologically they both occur at pretty much the same time.

duro982 All American 3088 Posts user info edit post |
^^ absolutely. This episode and the movie go hand in hand. Watching the tv show first will spoil the movie. If you don't care about that, than read a synopsis of the movie. But the movie was pretty good. It's a lot better than the first Captain America and as a look and feel much more like Avengers than the first Cap. movie. 4/9/2014 10:12:19 PM |
dweedle All American 77386 Posts user info edit post |
I haven't seen the movie but I watched the episode
the only spoiler I think I heard as that Captain America won his battle against some enemy (shocker!) 4/9/2014 10:50:46 PM |
omicron101 All American 3662 Posts user info edit post |
There's a huge spoiler in that ep about what happens to Nick Fury in the movie. How did you miss that? 4/10/2014 7:32:17 AM |
LudaChris All American 7946 Posts user info edit post |
^I guess in watching the episode I just took it as a lie/false information.
I'll end up watching the movie at some point, if that's the only spoiler then I'm glad I didn't wait. I heard the 2nd movie was better than the 1st, but I'm just not a huge Cap fan and the 1st movie did nothing for me, so probably just wait and catch it on DVD or when they start showing it on TV. 4/10/2014 8:15:33 AM |

So uh.. you didn't catch the spoiler where shield is completely infiltrated by Hydra and dismantled at the end?
You didn't notice that at all?
Again, i think they go hand in hand more than one really spoils the other. But if I could begin the movie or this episode having seen the other, I'd prefer to see the movie and then the episode. The episode spoils more of the movie than the other way around.

So I like how the most top secret and secure Shield facility was a 100 floor tower in the middle of nowhere.

There should have been anti-air missles and shit mounted to that thing, especially if it had all the technology Fury said he destroyed. 4/16/2014 11:21:49 AM |
LudaChris All American 7946 Posts user info edit post |
As expected, the "spoiler" from the movie was useless and glad I didn't miss anything by skipping the movie and continuing on with the show.
Not sure why they thought the audience would actually think Fury was dead, esp. when they announced a few weeks ago that Samuel L. would be returning to Shield for another cameo soon. 4/17/2014 8:46:37 AM |

^You didn't miss anything except for an awesome movie. If you like the marvel cinematic universe enough to watch this mediocre show (one that I admit is getting better and I will continue to watch), I don't see how you would not like the movie, even if you don't particularly care for captain America. The movie was more of a shield movie than captain America anyways, except for done a million times better than this show could ever hope to do 4/17/2014 8:58:36 AM |

Evidently one of the first few episodes in a cameo according to Wraith on the previous page.
Quote : | "A little better than the pilot but not by much. I was worried it would end up with just a "freak of the week" type deal where they just go hunt down some mild villain each episode. Glad to see that Samuel L. Jackson showed up." |
I figured it happened at the end of an episode I deleted too early.4/24/2014 8:21:05 PM |

According to IMDB it Samuel L. Jackson appeared in episode 2 "0-8-4"
Quote : | "Skye is now integrated into Coulson's team as a consultant. Their next assignment is in Peru, tracking a "0-8-4", a S.H.I.E.L.D. prefix for "an object of unknown origin". Once there, the team quickly realizes that the object is actually a piece of forgotten HYDRA technology powered by Tesseract energy. Coulson meets with a former ally, Camilla Reyes and brings her onboard the team plane. Later, Reyes betrays Coulson and plans to take the HYDRA weapon for herself so she can take over Peru. The squabbling team members band together, utilizing each of their talents, and save the day. Skye receives a text message from another member of the Rising Tide and confirms her allegiance to them. Afterwards, Director Nick Fury scolds Coulson for the damage to the plane, and warns him about the risk Skye poses." |
