Ava Acres as Katya

Wait what? Is Radcliffe going to simulate Bahrein for May? That can't turn out well.

 

[DN91]

Let's get wacky.

Maybe it's just because I watched and loved Westworld but this LMD story is not doing anything for me. *shrugs*

This sneak peek makes me even more convinced that Talbot is now a member of S.H.I.E.L.D. or at least the USAF's liaison officer in S.H.I.E.L.D.

Maybe this is an eight part run like Ghost Rider? And we'll get something else for the last 6 episodes?

There's no maybe about that.

“This year there’s three [story arcs]. It’s based on our schedule of how we’re airing. We like to run continuous, if that [is] possible, so this next [LMD] chunk will be a section and then we’ll be off for a while and there’ll be a third part.”

 

[DN91]

I'm even more convinced that at least most of the episode (maybe including the sneak peek clip) is a dream.

I hope you're right.

 

[coluanprime]

I hope you're right.

They are right. It was confirmed in an interview that they're doing three arcs this season to correspond with the three segments of uninterrupted air time.

I like how Aida lampshaded the question of why May was kept alive.

 

[giveyourself12%]

I wonder who the other LMD is.

 

[giveyourself12%]

Ok it's Yo-Yo or Mack.

 

[OB12]

Senator Nadeer is one step ahead.

 

[The Guardian]

It's Fits, it's obvious!

 

[terry78]

Figured she was still under.

 

[The Guardian]

Ok, maybe it's not Fitz!t:

 

[Spider-Gnome]

Can't believe they got me with that escape! They pulled that in Dollhouse!

 

[giveyourself12%]

Well...I was wrong.

 

[OB12]

This episode is twisty!

 

[The Guardian]

Did not see that coming, touché AOS, touché lol!t:

 

[giveyourself12%]

Yay Koenig!

 

[Web-Head]

Twist upon twist. Really enjoying this season

 

[Pennywise]

May VS AIDA!!!

Another superior hour of television I love how they keep suprising us every week. Im glad to see the yo-yo mack relationship getting to that next level. we finally see why fitz has been so mysterious I had a feelin there was something more to his actions. Next week gonna be great with oswalt.

I still maintain this is not not just the best superhero show going but its one of the best shows on tv.
