This episode demonstrates the great bond that is shared between Coulson and May. We also get the turning point for Fitz as well as some pretty fight scenes.
Let's first start with the two characters we focused on: May and Coulson. These two have always had each other's backs and it was great to see these two going in alone on a mission. I also really like how it was shown how much they need and know each other, with Coulson knowing that May hates coffee, and May knowing where Coulson would hide out. Also, having May tell Coulson that she will never kill him kind of hints at a possible romantic relationship which I am okay with.
The fight scene that May had with...not May was really awesome. The special effects were well done to make it look like she was fighting a clone. I will say though, Agent 33, said that she knew all of May's moves, yet from what else we have seen from May, she didn't really compare to May's true awesomeness, IMO. I also love the nod to Captain America the Winter Soldier, with 33 using the face mask to change her appearance like Black Widow did. Looks like Hydra's learning from their mistakes.
I am really happy that Fitz is starting to help the team and that the team, especially Mack, is welcoming him back in and trying to help him heal. Fitz was maybe my favorite character last season and I want him to get healthy. I will say though that de Caestecker's performance of recovering from brain damage is extraordinary as it doesn't diminish his effectiveness yet still addresses the problem.
Plus, big news that the carving on the back of the painting...is NEW! Meaning someone else has the GH-325 in them and is out there carving. Hopefully we can get to the bottom of what that writing is as it keeps looking like a road map or something.
+ May and Coulson + Action + Fitz recovering + Who's carving?
Final Score: 9.3/10
