This week we went back to the events of Captain America: Winter Soldier to see what Bobbi, Mack and their team were doing the day that S.H.I.E.L.D. fell. They, along with Agent Hartley, are on the air craft carrier, Iliad, in search of Gonzales. It was nice to see Lucy Lawless again. I’m glad they brought her back.
After finding him (and convincing him that they aren’t Hydra), Bobbi reveals that she was given a second mission from Fury (like Natasha in Winter Soldier). She’s been tasked with sinking the ship, destroying the cargo in the process. Realizing that this is a one-way mission, Mack and the rest of the team decide to join her before ultimately deciding to take back the ship instead of destroying it.
Back in the present, Coulson finally lets Mack take a look under Lola’s hood, but for the purpose of confronting him because Coulson suspects him to be a mole. Through the conversation, Coulson figures out that Bobbi is a mole as well. This revelation leads to a fantastic fight scene between May and Bobbi over Fury’s Toolbox.
This week’s episode was full of revelations and putting are characters where they need to be for the rest of the season.
The main storyline followed Ward and Agent 33. The episode begins with them at a diner. We think they’re going to rob it, but they’re actually looking for the person who can fix the mask on 33’s face. He is able to fix the broken part, but is unable to take the mask off. Throughout the episode you can tell that Agent 33 has developed feelings for Ward, especially when she uses her mask to look like Skye in an attempt to seduce him. Ward picks up on it as well and uses it to his advantage.
Together, they infiltrate the place where Bakshi is being held and break him out. But they don’t want to free him. Ward wants 33 to get her revenge on Bakshi by making him go under the compliance program himself. Of course, that’s just what Ward said. I’m still convinced that he has some other plan up his sleeve.
Meanwhile, Coulson and his team are still trying to figure out what to do with Skye. Andrew’s recommendation last episode was for her to leave S.H.I.E.L.D. but Coulson doesn’t want to do that just yet. Instead, he and Skye head out to one of Fury’s safe houses. There she will be able to rest, relax and maybe begin to get a grip on her powers. She is given a pair of gloves, designed by Simmons, that should help repress her powers, but with some mysterious side effects.Read More »Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. recap – 2×14: Love in the Time of Hydra

This weeks episode did a great job of relieving some of the dark tone that the season has taken while still moving the overall story forward. We start by seeing Lady Sif, the Asgardian Warrior, wash up on shore with no memory. She doesn’t know who she is or why she is on Midgard; conveniently though, she does remember everything that she was taught as a child which will come in handy later. S.H.I.E.L.D. is called in and the team fly down to help. Sif is trying to find someone named “Kava” but when they figure out that the person their looking for is a Kree she realizes that “Kava” is not a person but the Kree word for “key.”
They find the place where Whitehall discovered the Diviner and capture the Kree, whose name is Vin-Tak. Vin-Tak is able to restore Sif’s memories with the same weapon he used to take them and they all have a heated discussion back at S.H.I.E.L.D. Apparently, the Teregensis was created by the Kree for the purpose of creating new soliders to fight in their war. It was largely a failure, except on Earth. Vin-Tak recently saw that one of the Dinviners was activated and has come to destroy it and the person who was changed.
The team assumes that he’s just talking about Raina, but the conversation got Skye worked up enough that she causes another small earthquake, revealing her change to everyone. Sif wants to take her back to Asgard where she will be safe and so will everyone else and Vin-Tak wants to destroy her. May tries to hide Skye and give her an impromptu lesson in controlling her emotions, but Sif finds them and Skye ends up taking May’s Icer and knocking herself out with it. Bobbi fights Vin-Tak and ends up using his memory weapon against him. Skye’s self-sacrifice convinces Sif to leave them alone for now and she takes the Kree back instead.Read More »Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD “Who We Really Are” Recap
