Man, I don't know how to feel about Tess. I figured if they were gonna invoke the whole "back through the past" cliche with a newer character in tow, it was gonna be her.
Fitz and Simmons together again! I knew from the drop that Fitz's whole proposal scene at the buffet was gonna fall on deaf ears. After five seasons of their relationship, you know what's to be expected opening with a scene like that. The last five minutes though, whew.
Every time they pulled away from Quake, the blue man group and the lovebirds, I found myself drifting away mentally from the show. It's not that I find this arc to be boring, just that the pacing seems really uneven at times. I'm also rooting for the roaches.
Anyways, SHIELD went into its final commercial break last night and my station decided to aired a shit ton of local ads, going over time and cutting off the "stinger" and most of the preview. Anyone out there feel like giving me a rundown of what happened in spoiler tags or something? Literally the first time this has happened in the five years I've been watching this show, and something of a surprise considering the local CBS affiliate is usually the guilty party of clogging the airwaves with their incessant self promotion, instead of ABC.
