Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Preview – episode 15: Yes Men

marvel-shield-ladysif04

Last week, the team went on mission to find a way to save Skye’s life. Led by Coulson and Ward’s former S.O., John Garrett, they find the Guest House, where Coulson was during his questionable resurrection process.

They find a substance called GH-325 that was used on Coulson that allowed his cells to begin regenerating. As the team rushes back to give it to Skye, our favorite S.H.I.E.L.D. agent delves deeper into the Guest House and discovers a room labeled T.A.H.I.T.I. (because, apparently, someone really wanted their initials to spell “Tahiti”). In the room, Coulson finds a large container labeled “GH” that contains the top half of a human-like form where the GH formulas are being pumped from.

Speculation is all over the internet as to what that thing was, my favorite theory is that it is a Kree, an alien race that could open up a world of storytelling possibilities including a tie in to Guardians of the Galaxy.

Coulson tries to stop his team from injecting Skye with the mystery liquid but doesn’t make it in time. After a momentary seizure, Skye seems to have stabilized and is a little farther away from the edge of danger.Read More »Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Preview – episode 15: Yes Men

Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. episode 12 preview – Seeds

Previously on Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. on ABC:

We were reunited with the team just a few days after Coulson’s capture as they were in pursuit of a guy named Vanchat, who they hoped could help find their leader. After returning to the bus with Vanchat, Agent Hand promptly kicked Skye off and Skye promptly followed her own leads to search for Coulson.

I really liked Skye’s story in this episode. She proved her intelligence and her use to the team. And I definitely got a good chuckle from her impersonation of May. She brought some much needed levity to an otherwise dark episode.

Meanwhile, the mystery surrounding Coulson’s death is unraveling. What I really wanted to know was whether or not this Coulson is the same one that we’d gotten to know in the movies. The episode didn’t answer all of the questions about his resurrection, but it did answer that one.

This isn’t a clone and this isn’t a Life Model Decoy. This is Agent Phil Coulson of S.H.I.E.L.D. who underwent multiple procedures that were both very risky and very shady.

My next question is the same as Agent Hand’s — Why is Coulson worth all the trouble to bring him back to life? Does Fury just like him that much or is there something deeper?

The last revelation of the episode is that Mike has survived the explosion but our unknown antagonist has replaced one of his eyes with the eye camera/bomb that we’ve seen already.

That’s a lot to build on and I look forward to seeing what happens.
