Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Chloe Bennet IS Skye

I'm thinking Skye is an Inhuman. The alien cadaver was Kree and her body accepted the GH-235 because of course, the Inhumans are a genetic offshoot of humans and Kree. She's probably a member of the royal family. She'll start manifesting small uses of her powers in later eps but her appearance won't change until she's eventually exposed to the Terrigen Mist.

I like this theory! Maybe that is why they wanted to kill her because she is a royal family member.
 
The Clairvoyant told whatshisface to shoot her so that he could find out about Tahiti. Or at least thats my understanding based on the interrogation. It was a means to an end, not an assassination.

i think he did want her dead only to see if they could bring her back...got pretty close there though

Quinn deliberately gut shot her (as if told that's where he should shoot her). If he wanted her dead a heart shot or head shot would have done the job, but he left her alive on purpose.

Coupled with Quinn's description of what the Clairvoyant could do (how they led him to the agents pursuing him) I think it's an advanced AI making calculated predictions on behavioural models available from shields database. Ie; It knew if Skye were critically injured Coulson would go hunting down whatever was used on him. If she was dead, would he really be willing to put her through the same thing he underwent?

Why the Guest House was a blind spot for the Clairvoyant (I would think) is because that site and what they do there wasn't on Shields books. It took a human intuitive look from Fitz into their files to figure out where the 'Guest House' really was (and he only got that from the GH-352 reference in Coulson's file, which would presumably also be beyond the Clairvoyants reach).

I think at any rate...

The Clairvoyant's plan to force Coulson to dig up the details of his resurrection is just what I figured would happen as soon as Skye was shot. The fact that Quinn didn't cap her in the head was a dead giveaway. Since Coulson is soft, he wouldn't let his pet project die if he could find out how to save her.

The whole episode was totally predictable; there was no suspense because it was obvious that Skye would be saved and the team would escape unscathed. The only interesting moment was the reveal of the bod in the pod. But like The X-Files before it, AOS's writers made sure to destroy the cool and freaky alien evidence immediately. Like I said, predictable.

Sometimes I wonder about you Xeno.

Your definition of "predictable" and "non-suspenseful" could apply to so many shows and movies that were neither predictable nor non-suspenseful. Hell, how bout an MCU example? Iron Man 3. Did I know that Tony Stark was never in any danger? Yes. Did I know that the villain would lose in the end? Yes. Did I know that there would be an after credits scene? Yes... But just because I knew those things doesn't mean that the movie was predictable. Sometimes you'll just know things.

Guess what, in Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Cap and Widow are going to survive. Totally predictable right? That movie is not going to be suspenseful whatsoever.

I'm thinking Inhuman at this point. The GH235 serum could be some form of the Terrigen Mists. The biggest hole I see in this theory, though, is why they would be extracting it from a dead Kree.
 
So if Skye and Coulson are Inhuman it may pave the way for these guys:

Given Feige's affinity for the property, I'm thinking we'll get them either way. Probably in Phase 4.
 
Wait... We're going with that body being Kree now? Okay.

You mean there's no chance the stars of a successful series are going to get killed off?!?They're not getting my money.:o


Seriously though,I thought all the Skye haters were in cryo-hibernation along with her.I guess having barely breathing still isn't good enough.:hehe:

Nothing set in stone, of course, but that insignia bears so much resemblance to Ronan's that I can't believe it's a coincidence. It could very well be, and we're basically looking into tea leaves, seeing what we want to... but yea, I'm thinking Kree as of now.

I've only see the toys of Ronan from GOTG, but yup, the slightly glowing insignia/tattoo on the alien corpse's chest is too similar to the one on Ronans suit (and again like the code/language we saw on the board a ways back and seen again in Coulson's revival flashback) to be co-incidence imo.

I'd be surprised if its isn't a Kree now.

Maybe the serum doesn't have to be extracted from a living Kree for it to work.
 
I figured I ought to link this here, since it has important ramifications as to Skye's identity. In the Episode 15 thread, WT posted a screenshot of some text that was displayed in episode 14, regarding the Guest House. Examining the image, I created a transcription of the screenshot. It mentions three former SHIELD facilities that were supposed to have been shut down: Coventry, Guest House, and Shangri-La. There's a lot of good Easter Egg info there, but the third one applies specifically to Skye. POTENTIAL SPOILERS AHEAD!

Recall, Skye was found in Hunan Province in the late 80s (her medical report at St. Agnes was redacted Apr. '89).

Apparently, S.H.I.E.L.D at one time operated a facility named "Shangri-La" in Hunan Province China. Something happened in 1968 that led to this facility being "officially abandoned", but SHIELD's "inner circle" knew that the base was still "active", with China's cooperation, well into the 1980s. It's not entirely clear to me whether the base was still under SHIELD command at this time, or whether SHIELD just knew the facility was still being used, as was the case with the Guest House.

Either way, this heavily implies that either SHIELD, or whoever else may have controlled this facility at the time, played a direct part in creating Skye. It's no mere coincidence that she first shows up right in the vicinity of a secret SHIELD (or former-SHIELD) facility, and then gets fought over by two warring factions. Or that SHIELD just happened to randomly stumble across an "unknown object" in the middle of nowhere (where they happened to also have a base).

I need to go back and rewatch Seeds now, but as I recall, it was a senior agent who called in an 0-8-4. But the backup team who recovered her, were all rookies, and thus wouldn't have known about Shangri-La. Given SHIELD's propensity for procedure, and information compartmentalization, it strikes me as a distinct possibility that the senior agent lied to the rookie team about Skye's origins being unknown, in order to hide the existence of Shangri-La.
At this point, now I'm starting to lean back towards the Jessica Drew or Carmilla Black theory, although Inhumans, or just an original character are both still possibilities.
