“The three of you can live as one small, messed up family.”
them except they never got a wedding
More thoughts on the rest of season one:
Raina keeps talking about what she and Skye will become even way back here.
A guy stabs May and she later uses the same knife on him, just like with Izel later.
The contrast of Quinn hugging Skye to shoot her again more effectively with Coulson cradling her body hurts.
Garrett doesn't realize that all the kerfuffle is because Hydra has revealed themselves until Skye decrypts the signal.
When Coulson locks May up in the cage, you can see Ward trying to figure out if she's Hydra too. He's so confused for a minute, and it's hilarious to me.
Speaking of Ward, Raina tells him how she would manipulate him if that's what she wanted to do and then immediately follows up and does it, but he totally falls for it.
I forgot how intense (and ridiculous) Fitz's one-sided grudge against Tripp is. The Moby Dick bit is great.
Daniels tells Audrey something like, "I'm a monster, but you can save me," which is interestingly similar to how Ward is treating Skye in these episodes.
Speaking of which, the cello continuing to play over Skye discovering Koenig's body is amazing.
Skye says May left because she didn't care at all, but it's the opposite—she cares too much.
While they're talking by the pool, Jemma says Fitz will never have to find out what it would be like if she were Hydra, but thanks to the Framework, she will have to see him that way. Poor babies.
Garrett sarcastically tells Deathlock/Mike that he loves him right before a cut to Fitzsimmons in the pod.
Coulson says Skye was compassionate, not weak, when she chose not to let Ward die, whereas Garrett calls any sign of compassion in Ward weakness. It really hammers home how much of a difference it makes who finds you.
I've recently started rewatching Agents of Shield with my sister who hasn't seen it before, so here are some rewatch-inspired thoughts about the first half of season one:
The Bus Kids are all such babies! Especially Skye.
May gets knocked out in each of the first two episodes. It's definitely taking her a moment to readjust to fieldwork.
So many Shield water bottles.
Even though I know what Ward actually is, he still makes me like the version of himself we see here.
May and Coulson's one-sided conversations are amazing.
I honestly can't remember. Did Ward's younger brother die in the well? The flashes we see aren't super clear.
Interesting that Coulson tells Skye that there was a little girl in Bahrain, but he doesn't mention that she died.
I'd never realized that we get a glimpse of the carvings during Coulson's flashbacks of being revived.
Speaking of which, I thought looking at the carvings was what triggered his instinct to carve, but the drawings on the whiteboard in Eye Spy don't seem to set him off.
I love the way that when Coulson is kidnapped, he doesn't say the "Previously on" or "We'll return in a moment" bits. I remembered that from later seasons, but it's a nice touch to start it now.
my favourite character arc has to be Fitz and his evolving relationship with doors
Oo, these are fun! Here's a few other ideas that popped into my head:
What if Coulson was alive for the events of season six?
What if May didn't leave Providence to find Maria?
What if Tripp was inhuman?
What if Hope lived?
What if Cal found Daisy earlier?
What if May didn't marry Andrew?
What if Jemma was the LMD?
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "What If...?" scenarios bc s3 was lowkey mediocre and there were no AoS references throughout the season so now I'm salty and centering a whole season around AoS:
(yes some of these are from a previous post)
What if Fitz was the true HYDRA mole?
What if Coulson was dead the whole time and his adventures were all in his brain?
What if the team never escaped the Framework?
What if Daisy got corrupted by the Darkhold?
What if Raina got Daisy's powers?
What if Hive won?
What if the agents joined the final battles against Thanos?
What if half of the agents were Snapped?
What if Daisy was taken to Asgard by Sif?
What if May decided to not go to Bahrain?
What if Mack sacrificed himself in place of Lincoln?
What if Jemma remained on Maveth forever?
(TW) What if Kora never killed herself in the main timeline?
What if Ward was really a triple agent?
What if Loki and Coulson met again?
What if Izel controlled Daisy?
What if the Avengers found out about Coulson's resurrection?
I like to think I'm funny.
daisy updating the team on how things are going with sousa:
Okay but seriously an AoS musical episode would literally be the PERFECT spot to include Chloe's little stint as a Chinese pop star
I have no idea how a musical episode would even work into the plot (maybe sometime in s6? Bc Izel's whole thing was about resonance frequencies so maybe they had to sing in order to stop some plan of hers?), but it's just. It's so perfect
Can you imagine them all arguing or something and suddenly Daisy breaks into song, beating all the others, leaving the others stunned. Like, "whoa, had no idea she could do that!" and "where did you learn to sing like that?" and Daisy's like "uhhhhh don't worry about it"
And then we have a post credit scene of her desperately trying to wipe the "Uh Oh" music video off the internet but no matter how hard she tries she can't do it

Listen, if you’re looking for a new show to watch, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D has everything. Found family, including a mother and father figure? Comedy? Slow burn romances and also a bickering divorced couple who get back together? An insane amount of hurt/comfort? Characters who get superpowers? Plot twists? Action/adventure? Alternate universes and time travel? Strong platonic love? Characters with flaws? Fleshed out storylines? Autistic-coded characters? Characters dying and coming back to life? 136 episodes to watch the characters grow together and become a family? It’s the ultimate show
I realized something
Lonnie - daughter of fa mulan (descendants)
Is played by Dianne Doan
Same actress that plays Kora ( Daisy's sister in agent's of shield)
And in mulan(1998) Fa Mulan is voiced by Ming na wen
Who also played Agent Melinda May ( MOTHER) in agents of shield
Soo....
Can someone with a higher intelligence come up with a conclusion?
i want to write a lot about the last episodes but i’ll do it later due to the large amount of water in my eyes
last season of the agents of shield is what last season of the 100 wish to be
also the last episode was so great and thoughtfully made? great pace, pleasant camera work and interesting interactions between team members? i was stunned by it.
i especially liked the plot line with may and elena. two amazing women solving psychological problem with sparring? give me more things like this
and coulson? our dad sure starting to feel some depressed feelings and it would be interesting to see how creators will go with this.
preview for the next episode is really promising. can’t wait
yep i still don’t ship daisy and sousa. even their interactions in the last episode wasn’t romantic to me and more like partnership? i don’t mind them completely, it’s just i don’t see any romantic spark between them.
I’ve seen some of you guys here calling Olga russian and I want to teach you a geography lesson.
The Balkans, or the Balkan Peninsula, is a geographic area in Southeast Europe which includes following countries (yes, more than one):
And while I can’t tell from what country exactly Olga came from and can’t recognize language she speaks (feel free to tell me because I am really curious), I can definitely say that she is not from Russia.
Also she rocks 😍
if they brought back sousa just to pair him with daisy i would very much prefer them not to bring him back at all. call me crazy peggysous but sousa not being with peggy doesn’t feel right to me and i can’t enjoy his scenes with daisy much (he is still the best man on earth in these) because i don’t see that spark or something that people who started to ship them see.
if they wanted to give daisy relationships in the final season so badly (which is great because she herself wanted some) i would prefer them to bring back robbie. she had great chemistry with him and they were very powerful.
also this episode was so hard on mack, i feel so bad for him
i know a lot of people seem to enjoy daniel and daisy but seriously if they end up endgame it will be t h a t unnecessary heterosexual ship
