Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. promo

[BLAKE]

Oh yeah. It's been great. I really didn't see that Lash twist coming.

[mstng86]

I have to watch Tuesday nights episode.

[Jose]

So anybody else been following along the past couple of episodes?

[mustang_revival]

I guess as a humanitarian, sure I would help find him.

But if they do get him back to Earth, it would make a weird love triangle. I guess the show could fit that in.

Yeah I think they'll bring the astro guy back, Simmons will end up getting with him and realize in the dirty throws of love she really wants Fitz more.

Then if Fitz is still available (may introduce a new love interested for Fitz) he'll take her back.

[mstng86]

So I wasn't expecting Lash to be revealed that quickly.

Not sure how they are going to explain his history.

Agreed.

[mstng86]

So if you were Fitz, you would leave him stranded on the planet? I don't think she's going to jump the guy if he returns but maybe that's just my thinking she's more into Fitz and the other guy was just because of the situation.

Because he's putting her happiness in front of his own. If he works to save Will and it works, either she goes with Will and that's the way the cookie crumbles, or she's so blown away by Fitz' selflessness and desire to make her happy that it cements the FitzSimmons relationship. Either way, he knows the score and has brought some healing to someone he cares about.

From a story writing standpoint, I don't see any way that Simmons and Wes end up together long term. More likely, Wes is on the way out, either injured or brainwashed by the Evil thing, and it introduces a good bad guy.

I thought it was a cool, very different episode.

Maybe he just wants to close the portal when the guy is half way through.

The episode sort of reminded me of some old school sci fi shows. It had all the elements of some weird sci fi show from the 60's or something. Or a one of episode from Star Trek. It was more psychological than action packed. It was a nice change.

[BLAKE]

yea, that was the only puzzling thing for me. Why would he WANT to save this guy if there is a chance she is going to be with him. Unless he is blind and thinks it was just a necessary lay on a desert planet.

Simmons: Have you made any progress with the portal?
Fitz: Na, SHIELD shit came up. Had to help save May. Whore.

[mstng86]

Fitz just learned he's been risking his life and spending every waking moment for a chick getting some dick.

Fuck that boring episode.

I disagree and thought it was pretty good. I'm just surprised that she's been back however long and she's just making mention of it now. WTF! This season has been pretty solid with the different story lines playing it. I still remember the very first episode and thought that this show is going to be a dud. Boy was I wrong.

Really enjoying this season so far and TV over all for me has been pretty good with this, The Walking Dead, Homeland, and I'm sure I'm missing another show or two.

[mstng86]

I was actually very bored of the 27th's episode. I'd rather it have been done in pieces throughout an episode of what is currently going on.

It was a change of pace for sure. But it was a plot development episode for something bigger down the road I think.
