Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Elizabeth Henstridge & Iain De Caestecker Talk FitzSimm
We’ve final seen the big FitzSimmons kiss, but there were a lot of different emotions boiling to the surface in that one scene. Which emotion was it that finally gripped Fitz and made him decide to kiss Simmons?
ID: Well the conversation boiled up, and he’s trying in some way to compare himself to Will. He asks her whether she’s in love with Will, and they’ve already had that scene in the episode before where she’s kind of told him that she’s thought about catching that wave sometime in the future. I think, like Elizabeth said, she’s kind of had that moment with Will, and they’ve never had that moment, and I think it’s been bubbling for a while. I think, in that moment, it’s just been bubbling for a while, and he sees a quick opportunity. There’s quite high intensity in that scene, and he’s just kind of like, excuse my French, “F*** it,” you know? Can you put that in? You can put that in. I think it’s just that, and I think ultimately it just makes things more confusing and awkward. It’s not him thinking about it. It has a very sudden, kind of impulse that you get.
EH: And I think they want to know. They’ve never explored that area, and it gets to a point where it’s too, you know, they’re screaming at each other, and clearly them trying to ignore it, or just trying to talk through it, isn’t working. When Fitz kisses Simmons its, as Iain says, like an impulse, and just out of kond of almost frustration, and the situation is just, there are no words anymore to come back with. And when Simmons kisses Fitz, that’s cognitive. She’s thought about it, and it kind of felt good when he kissed her, and she wants to then – that second kiss, for me, is kind of a kiss that maybe FitzSimmons fans might want. It’s very deliberate, and it’s nice, and it’s kind of familiar almost. That’s when they know…because I think both of them were probably hoping that it would be terrible, because then the situation is just resolved. But it wasn’t, it was really nice. So Fitz says that they’re cursed, because they can’t see a way through it.

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY How does confronting Price this way affect their relationship? Are they basically done on the romantic front?
CLARK GREGG: I would not say that it’s done. Certainly their relationship got put to a pretty severe test, but it all shakes down in a way that their motives stand up to that kind of scrutiny. There’s nobody more likely to understand the need to get to the bottom of the truth about this kind of thing more than each other.
Hydra is known playing the long game — thousands of years long! Can he really trust Price now or is there a part of him that is still wary?
I would like to say that unlike all the other members of my species — being males — that Coulson is going to let his reasonable, rational mind govern his actions when it comes to this kind of thing, but I don’t think he’s that much different than everybody else. He has very strong feelings about her, perhaps feelings that surprise him. What we discover in Tuesday’s episode is that even those kind of feelings don’t top his dedication to protecting the people he’s tasked with protecting. It would take a lot to make him just walk away.
