Agents of SHIELD thoughts
I am just not sure about some of the acting decisions that the guy playing Skye's father is making. He seems unhinged in a way that is maybe supposed to be interesting? But mostly seems to repel sympathy? Which is unfortunate, because actually he does have a legitimate grievance: SHIELD kidnapped his child. He just expresses it in the worst way possible. Skye will never love you if you keep trying to kill all her friends, dude!
I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT THE EVEN-MORE-SECRET SHIELD. Of course there are multiple layers of secrecy hear, of course Coulson is Fury's front man while he secretly builds up something new in the background - assuming Fury is involved? I think Mack implied that, but it all happened rather quickly.
And this is assuming that secret!nu!SHIELD is the real SHIELD. Maybe Fury seeded multiple new SHIELDs across the planet to see which one would prevail. Maybe a SHIELD battle royale is in the making. Possibly Fury saw Hunger Games too many times? ONLY THE STRONGEST WILL SURVIVE.
Coulson is going to be completely fucking crushed when he realizes that Fury lied to him. Again. And this time, Fury's not going to be able to smooth it over with the flattering reflection that he did it because Coulson was an Avenger. Just like Captain America, Coulson! So it's okay that I resurrected you against your express wishes as you begged me to let you die.
Because what could Fury possibly say this time? "Your loyalty made you seem like the perfect patsy to start a fake new SHIELD to draw attention away from the real new SHIELD? And you took your work so seriously, it was adorable."
Alternatively, Mack and Bobbi may have been tragically duped, and the other SHIELD that they think they're serving is actually a well-disguised branch of Hydra.
