I don't think it's SWORD (who has the rights to Abigale Brand anyway?) I'm wondering if we're seeing the actions of The Intelligencia.
That...would be interesting. And give us The Leader and MODOK who...damn. Ya, I'd be down with that.

I had an amusing thought this morning.
The team finds an 084 that appears to be a pair of strange stones that allow someone to walk through walls and fre energy blasts.
Then...
A decompression/flashback episode about 5 eps later where the team is being debriefed interrogated by a shrink. (Ala PAD's famous X-Factor that gave use Quicksilver's PMS.)
The stinger at the end is a Special Guest appearance by Maria Hill reading the reports. She then looks up and says, "Thank you Dr. Sofen."
(Especially if the rumours about a Carol Danvers movie are true.
RE: tonights episode.
Don't get Coulson mad!

Am I the only one who got a YoSafBridge vibe from flower dress girl?
Not pretty enough.
What is this centipede organization? My money is on AIM.
I also think that
Was the guy in the end scene a famous villian?

I don't know. He could be anyone (kind of reminded me of Colin Farrel's Bullseye). I can't find a 616 character named 'The Clairvoyant'.
'Scorch' pulls up a couple entries, an obscure Night Thrasher character is fairly close. There's also a Scorch under an organization called A.R.E.S. MAybe that is the 'centepede' group.
I wonder if they could call Chan Ho Yin a mutant? Stupid legalities.
"Centipede" sounds like Hydra--many parts in motion, cut off one and it keeps going...
And what's with Coulson's remark on having energy to burn? Hmmm...

Ugh. This show is the new Walking Dead for me - I more or less hate it, but watch it anyway. I'm hoping this will fade as the cast grows on me, but currently, I hate Fitz & Simmons more than words can say, am sick of Skye's perfectly quoffed I-used-to-live-in-a-van hair, and could take a 75% reduction in Agent Alpha Male Badass.
I am enjoying this show
but then again I am easily amused

I know he's not a Marvel character, but part of me really wants the mastermind behind Project Centipede to be this guy.
Yep I think it is getting better. I'm not sure Scorch is a known marvel character. I recall a Japanese fire generating super hero but not a Chinese one.
The show definitely hasn't disappointed me yet. They still need a bit more character development with some of the characters but give them time and I am sure it will be interesting.

Given that he may not have survived, it this an issue?

Also, the fact that they got rid of the doctor so quickly. That doesn't seem like A.I.M.'s style.
And what's with Coulson's remark on having energy to burn? Hmmm...
I wonder if the Cosmic Cube is involved with Coulson some how?

Or it could just be that is body is younger then it should be.
Its getting better.... I am starting to like some of the characters (other than AC and May).

The motivation for Skye was a nice twist. I'm glad to see her get some persona beyond the fanservice in The Asset and this episode.
(Don't get me wrong, I don't mind the fan service. I'm a Hermit, not a Monk after all, just watch TV for characterization and acting talents, and I want to see both.)
PErsonally...

Maybe you're thinking about Sunfire.

Oh this sounds excellent.

I was sort of starting to like Skye, but she needs to go. She's way too forced and unbelievable. From being an agent from day one to hey you betrayed us and stuff but welcome back.
Not sure anyone would have bought the little SIM card in the bra story either, or it somehow makes things different.
Kind of curious why her mentor didnt get a job, too? Obviously he saved like a building+ amount of people working cold, made an honest mistake, and everyones kind of a douche to him. But its cool when Skye does it.

Because.... boobs!
More seriously, I'd like to see him come back to bite the Son of Coul in the aft.
Centipede could be Hydra, but if that's the case they have a stronger affirmative action program than SHIELD does, and have drifted considerably from their Nazi roots.
That said, I hope it is Hydra, and that the guy in prison is supposed to be Arnim Zola. That could be fun.

Maybe. I don't find her that attractive, personally. Not ugly mind you but not that great. And attractiveness is probably the last attribute I care about. All in all, it's kind of seems like I like every even episode so far and not so much the next.

Skye looks like she's been airbrushed in every scene.
Also, when did ugly sweaters replace glasses as the indicator that the hot chick is also smart?
Velma pioneered ugly sweaters for smart ladies...

Ok, so a focused episode on FitzSimmons, and they're still not growing on me. I did like the scene of Coulson talking to the fireman.
Aside: the 11/19 episode is supposed to tie into a Thor reference.
Edit: Oh, and Melinda serving the cookies to the scout was funny. Oh and if Melinda Phill start fraternizing, I'm going to be so jealous of Clark GRegg, kissing Ming Na, married to Jennifer GRey, the Son of Coul is awesome. ;-)

Funny. I like their banter and how they're almost just treated as one person most of the time. Lots of character potential there as they start to differentiate them.

So close to losing one. Damn! Missed opportunity. What teases.
huh...I like this episode. I felt they really gave some backstory for both of those characters, and provided some good character development for most of the others.

As much as I'm enjoying the show and like its longterm potential and possibilities....I'm afraid if it doesn't stop dropping viewership here soon, it's not destined past this year.
It's about time for the midseason twist to occur...
My problem is that they are being too cagey with the MARVEL UNIVERSE elements. :(
I'm going with LMD because of the conversation an episode or two ago about muscle memory. He was wondering why he was having such a hard time with what should be a simple task due to muscle memory. The obvious answer is that those particular muscles have no memory of that activity.
Of course, that opens the question of "Why?" Why make an LMD of Coulson? What is it about him that makes it imperative he continue to work for SHIELD? Does he know something important? Usually agents are expendable.
