'Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.' Season 3 Episode 4 'Devils You Know' Review

Non Spoiler Review- Week after week, 'Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.' continues to improve and this week's episode was among the best in my opinion. I liked how this episode handled multiple arcs at once dealing with several characters and balancing them all very well. Overall, a great episode and I can't wait to see it expanded upon with next week's episode which will reveal what happened to Simmons on the other planet. 

*******There will be Spoilers from this point on*******

Highlights of the episode 

1. Simmons opens up to Fitz- Throughout the episode Fitz learns more about Simmon's intentions and at the end of the episode he confronts her about it and just as she's about to explain why she needs to go back the episode ended. I can't wait to learn what happened to her on the planet and why she feels the need to go back to the planet. 

2. Tough decision- Lance Hunter finally meets Ward within Hydra and immediately tries to kill Ward and when Hydra is about to overcome him, May comes as back up, This allows Ward to show he has Andrew under surveillance and will kill him unless May and Hunter leave. May is unsure of how to react but Lance doesn't give it any thought and immediately tries to chase down Ward managing to shoot him in the shoulder. This however has repercussions as Werner Von Strucker and Hydra kill Andrew and burn the building was in. I was very sad to see Andrew killed off and I'm curious to see if this will create tension between Lance and May. 

3. Lash- S.H.I.E.L.D. and the ACTU finally decide to hunt down Lash chasing leads that take them to a new Inhuman who whelps Lash track down Inhumans and the ACTU sedates him to take him to their facility. Mack and Daisy demand to come along and on the way they are attacked by Lash who ends up killing the Inhuman but spares everyone else even Daisy, which seems odd given it seems he is after Inhumans. I must say Lash looks much better than he did in the season premiere as he looks very menacing. As he kills the Inhuman and walks away he morphs into a human or at least that s what we see rom Daisy's perspective based on his shadow so I'm curious to learn more about Lash and what his powers and motivations are in regards to his hunt. 

4. Hunter goes after Ward- As I discussed earlier, Hunter finally goes after Ward but fails in his attempt to kill him. This allows Ward to escape and I'm curious to see what Hunter's plan will be now that he can't infiltrate Hydra from the inside anymore.

5. Coulson and Rosalind cooperate- The scenes between Coulson and Rosalind are always great due to the witty banter between the two and it was interesting to see their organizations cooperate with one another. I'm excited to learn more about the ACTU and see how long the cooperation between the two will last.
