TV commentary:

Agents of SHIELD- Ah, so we finally get an answer to that question. Mace's big secret- its not like he did something secretly shady. In fact, he actually is a pretty good man. Its that he isn't Inhuman at all! His strength comes from a derivation of Daisy's dad's formula, without "most" of the bad stuff. SHIELD need an enhanced person as the head in order to get in good with the Inhumans, and no one fit the bill, so Talbot created someone to fill the position.

In any case, since Coulson sees Mace is a good guy, heroic even, he decides they'll continue the charade. Mace is after all good at that political crap. So Mace will continue to deal with the political stuff, but Coulson secretly makes all the actual mission decisions.

Ah, and my suspicions were correct! I had a feeling since there was a separate, decapitated Aida at SHIELD HQ, that Fitz would work on it, trying to figure out what went wrong. Jemma is pretty adamant against him doing that though, as the rest of the organization isn't too pleased with Aida given she killed one of their fellow agents. He ends up uploading Aida to his phone to secretly keep her around until he can figure things out.

But yeah, at this point, I guess there are two Aidas now? The Aida Fitz is working on, and Aida 2.0 at Radcliffe's? It seems like they're setting them up to be two different entities. Radcliffe better watch out, because even though he's calling the shots, there was a moment there where he was chastising her over a mistake, and she had this look like she wanted to murder him. But yeah, despite wanting the Darkhold, it seems like Radcliffe hold some caring/loyalty towards SHIELD. Like he was displeased over Nathanson's death, apparently that was off-book. He doesn't want Aida to hurt May, even when she tries to escape. And he was going to tweak Aida's programming so she'll resort to less lethal responses.

Really though, they only now figured out May was rejecting the simulation or whatever they have her in while in a coma because it was all about her relaxing?! Of course she'd find that wrong and the way to engage her is to have her in conflict. Which, interesting, I wonder what Radcliffe had in mind for that?

As for LMD-May, interesting, she's not even aware she's an LMD. Or rather, was unaware. Radcliffe figured that was the best way to keep her mission a secret, to make her not even know she's a robot trying to steal the Darkhold. But yeah, during the rescue of Coulson, Mack, and Mace, she sustains an injury, that when she checks it out later figures out she's a robot. She doesn't seem too pleased. It'll be interesting to see how all this turns out!
