Happy to see Patton back!

 

[giveyourself12%]

Happy to see Patton back!

Me too!

 

[The Guardian]

The plot thickens lol.

 

[giveyourself12%]

I thought Koenig(s) was gonna end up being an LMD for sure.

 

[giveyourself12%]

Well...I did not see that coming. Well done.

 

[OnTheAir]

Oh snap...Vice President Susan Ross is a Koenig!

 

[Pennywise]

When AIDA punched through that guy's chest, it reminded me of T-800's introduction in the Terminator.

 

[Web-Head]

Oswalt overload.

 

[giveyourself12%]

Great episode. Technicians...heh!

I also loved the references to Coulson from the movies.

"He's always there!"

 

[chicagodave]

So much going on this episode im gonna have to rewatch it just to see if i missed anything. Oswalt is always great.

Does anyone else think Aida is creepy as hell shes just evil.

 

[RiXi]

Well, now I have to find those "Quack" fanfics.

 

[Uskok]

Koenigs. Too many Koenigs. And Charles Vane has a submarine. Now he's the ultimate pirate.

 

[scarlet-witch]

I was too tired to watch the entire episode last night so I just fast forwarded to all of FitzSimmons/Mack's parts. Those were good!

So Coulson is essentially a heroic version of the Winter Soldier.

So Coulson is essentially a heroic version of the Winter Soldier.

I'm trying to figure out where they are going with this, seems like there is some sort of swerve coming. Anyways, this is another good episode, Patton is always great and the Fitz storyline was pretty good as well.

So...
A Russian thug with a submarine knows Coulson's alive, but the Avengers know nothing, Jon Snow?
Am I getting this right?

To be honest, I think The Avengers know he is alive. Sif knows and she said that Thor would be happy to know.
And Coulson is more public recently, so Tony Stark and so on will know for sure.

LOL.

I cannot take "Agent LT Koenig", the original one seriously. She is Artemis from Always Sunny in Philadelphia; A sex crazed over the top-wannabe theater actor who has a history of weird promiscuous acts with Danny D'Avito's character, Frank haha

"Stop being a whiny little *****"... That's Artemis

 

[HFK]

I loved Artemis playing LT and manhandling her brothers, thought she was a really good choice for the role.

 

[scarlet-witch]

Still haven't finished but I saw a gif of May and Coulson kissing go across my tumblr dash. wtf is that? lol

 

[TheVileOne]

Still haven't finished but I saw a gif of May and Coulson kissing go across my tumblr dash. wtf is that? lol

Spoiler

I can only assume its the LMD making out with him.

 

[R_Hythlodeus]

Kissing? That's two people (at least) pressing their lips against each other in an expression of affection, love, greeting, reverence, etc.
It's a pretty common act.

Oh man, thanks for that explanation.
