Non Spoiler Review- I can't quite call this episode the best episode of 'Agents of SHIELD' but I say it was very close and can definitely fall under the better episodes of the series. It features some great character development as well as one of the best action sequences this season.
*******There will be Spoilers from this point on*******
Highlights of the episode
1. Coulson Surrenders to Gonzales- I was very shocked to see Coulson surrender to Gonzales in an attempt to work with Gonzales despite their conflicting ideals. I hope the two end up working together to fight Hydra and hopefully free Deathlok and Lincoln because I really enjoy those characters.
2. Lincoln and Deathlok are captured- Towards the end of the episode Deathlok finds Skye and then tries to speak to her but is interrupted
by Lincoln and the two fight which was interesting to see. Hydra then arrives and sort of EMP's both of them in a way. I think Hydra plans to experiment on them which I will discuss in another highlight as to how the connections to Avengers Age of Ultron are being formed.
3. Coulson and Ward make a deal- Coulson realizes he requires Ward's help to stop Hydra so he offers Ward the opportunity to start fresh if Ward will help Coulson and Ward seems tempted by the offer because he knows he could have a better life, etc. Plus, it's nice to see Ward on Coulson's side.
4. Daddy-Daughter Day Out- When Cal and Skye go to his office, it was very touching to hear Cal discuss all of the Father Daughter activities he wanted to participate in that he never got the opportunity to do, etc. Skye also learns her last name is Johnson so her full name is Daisy Johnson just like Quake in the comics and Cal teases that he changed his name to Mr. Hyde while he was evil also like Daisy's father in the comics. I liked the development of their relationship and that Skye got to now her father well enough to bond with him and empathize for him.
5. Dr. List (Age of Ultron Crossover)- Dr. List was seen with Baron Von Strucker in the post credits scene of 'Captain America The Winter Soldier' which teased Hydra was experimenting on subjects with Loki's scepter and teases Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver. In the episode Dr. List makes another appearance and reveals that Hydra is experimenting on powered people for some unknown reason. I suspect Hydra will attempt to experiments
on Lincoln and Deathlok since they captured them at the end of the episode. It seems like these experiments will set the foundation for what Hydra is up to in 'Avengers
Age of Ultron and the final episodes should tie more directly into the events of 'Avengers
Age of
Ultron'.
