Coulson comes up with a contingency plan that includes May shooting him in the head. Do you think she could actually do it?
She certainly did everything she could in her power to avoid that as a choice for her to make. I think those scenes with May and Coulson at the end really showcase her heart and her love for Coulson as a friend or as something else—that’s always been a bit ambiguous. I don’t think she is able to do it until Coulson gave her the final ultimatum. As a soldier, she has to follow those rules. It would devastate her more than [whatever happened in] Bahrain, more than any experience that she’s gone through. This might destroy not just Coulson, but her. Hopefully we’ll never have to come to that. We can’t kill Coulson twice. But, you know, maybe that alien blue blood will make him immortal. Who knows?
We’ll be getting into May’s background this season. Have you reached that point yet?
No, that I can answer. We haven’t had that episode yet. I’m waiting on pins and needles. But this episode was such a Valentine’s Day present to me as an actress and May as a character and the fans who love “Philinda.” We have such an amazing core group of Team Philinda fans out there. I’m just relishing in it. It’s a wonderful afterglow. I’m so, so happy that I was given this episode to play with. It was an incredible challenge and I hope the fans love it as much as I loved shooting it.
