So many to choose from! I have to go with Skye freaking out when she realices Ward is HYDRA and then walks out to him cool as a cucumber as if everything were fine, Audrey talking about Coulson and Coulson telling her she's still with him, Fitzsimmons boxes and May calling her mom (that was really unexpected, LOL)
I really liked how May is looking for Maria Hill. It would be cool to have Cobie Smulders back on the show, especially since she was a fairly important character in Captain America 2...and I can't get enough of the cool tie-ins between different elements of the Marvel Universe.
I loved the whole lie detector test montage because we found out quite a bit about the characters, May was married, Triplett's grandfather is Gabe Jones (so awesome), Simmons is a Doctor Who fan. Great stuff.
LOL at "The bus is gone". Sometimes I just think the creator of lists like this just lists down random scenes from the episode.
Anyways, for me, seeing a superpowered individuals again is a treat! The best scene for me is the way the team defeated Daniel, but seeing Daniel using his power before that is also very thrilling. I got goosebumps the whole time Daniel appears onscreen.
Also, the whole episode is so suspenseful. With Skye finding out that Ward is Hydra and the cellist playing for Daniel while the team is waiting to take him out. This is by far the best episode that feature superpowered individuals. I even dare to think it's on par with "Yes Men" and I loved "Yes Men" so damn much!
Now I'm waiting for major storylines for Fitz and Simmons.
Loads to like this time! the whole ward/sky scenes (finding the blood all the way to acting like she is fine at the end) excellently done. Likes the whole coulson stuff story to:)
The penny drops! Love it! Great way they chose to literalize that metaphor. Also, I loved how Skye figured it out, pulled herself together, and played Ward.
ALL OF THEM! and more! Loved the way Skye handled the discovery of Ward's betrayal... Instead of panicking and breaking down she gets back up and PLAYS HIM RIGHT BACK! Can't wait to see how that tension will play out! And Fitz CLEARLY has feelings for Simmons, which makes me worried that he might do something rash to prove it... Also, love May's mom, can we keep her?
Loved those 2 Skye moments! I mean the way she played Ward was genius. And the moment when she figured him out was also so catching. I also loved your list..Hard to choose. Can't wait for more episodes.
Believe me when I tell you I don't just write down random scenes. I usually have anywhere from 10 - 20 and then I agonize over which to pick. For me, the bus is gone was a great scene because of the look on Coulson's face. It's also a low point for the whole team.
All of a sudden having Skye be a mole for The Rising Tide isn't just a stupid trick - it's an integral part of why she's going to survive! I'm very, very much enjoying how now that everything is coming together the enthusiasm for the show is just building and building!
I couldn't decide between Skye finding Ward is Hydra and Skye playing Ward. Her acting was priceless and that was really smart thinking when she put the penny back. I didn't understand the pennies part in it until Ward went to check if anyone had entered the room he stored Koenig's body in.
I was watching it with a friend of mine and I was all "don't go into the room, don't go into the room, Ward stay away from that room". It felt like a thriller.
But in that scene where she acts like she knows nothing, I was mind blown. Probably because if it was me I would have screamed and cried and screamed and cried, tried to punch Ward and then begged for my life. Because who actually wants to die.
I'm gonna go with the whole lie detector scenes! Not just Fitz's and Simmon's answers to the box question, but pretty much every answer they gave! May wanting to be around for Coulson, Skye's ''real name'', if you wish, all their reason for still being around, it was a nice moment, they had their funny answer, they had their sweet answer, I loved it!
One question about that scene, maybe someone can help me out here (Lisa?): Why the ''egg vs rock'' question? Some of those questions were personal, some were about testing their loyalty, but I have absolutely no idea what THAT question was supposed to mean! I do loved that both Fitz and Simmons took the scientific approach of the question to answer it, while May and Ward both answered throught a survival approach (Egg is food, rock is not, but only Ward of the two mentionned it was a weapon, May, as I recall, didn't add that). So... well, I guess in a metaphorical way it IS a personal question... but did Eric really needed an answer to that question, wouldn't all the questions about their past and the one about the box on an island be enought? So, yeah, anyone know?
While I'm at it, my answer to the two ''strange'' questions:
Box on an island: A town! You know, with people and an hospital and a school and cars and everything! Civilization was humanity's ultimate victory over the savage world that we could find, for exemple, on an Island! And they didn't mentionned what the maximum size of the box should be! :p Egg vs Rock: One's organic, one's mineral.

I've been waiting for this poll.
ReplyDeleteThat's hard to chose.

ReplyDeleteIt took me that long to chose only 8!!!
ReplyDeleteAudrey playing the cello while Skye's world continues to unravel. Bear McCreary is a genius.
ReplyDeleteAs anyone who's watched BSG has witnessed first hand...
ReplyDeleteI can only imagine! You did a great job!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the poll!
I really liked how May is looking for Maria Hill. It would be cool to have Cobie Smulders back on the show, especially since she was a fairly important character in Captain America 2...and I can't get enough of the cool tie-ins between different elements of the Marvel Universe.
ReplyDeleteMay all day, hope we get more next episode
ReplyDeleteI loved the whole lie detector test montage because we found out quite a bit about the characters, May was married, Triplett's grandfather is Gabe Jones (so awesome), Simmons is a Doctor Who fan. Great stuff.
ReplyDeleteShe is back on the show

ReplyDeleteThe only not surprising thing for me is Simmons and her love of Dr. WHo.
ReplyDeleteI mean a science loving Brit she had to be! Now I want a convo between her and Fitz over who the best Doctor is.
ReplyDeleteALL OF THEM! and more!
ReplyDeleteLoved the way Skye handled the discovery of Ward's betrayal... Instead of panicking and breaking down she gets back up and PLAYS HIM RIGHT BACK! Can't wait to see how that tension will play out!
And Fitz CLEARLY has feelings for Simmons, which makes me worried that he might do something rash to prove it...

ReplyDeleteThanks! It's getting harder every week to only pick a few of the best scenes because they're all so darn good!!
ReplyDeleteFavorite scene was when the penny dropped when Ward opened the door.
ReplyDeleteSo agree! What totally fanboy/fangirl fantasy. I know I couldn't decide, so it would be fun to hear their back and forth on it!
