geebsTV commentary:
Agents of SHIELD- So we finally know what's up with Fitz. While Daisy and Jemma are skeptical Fitz could do all the horrible things he's been doing, Radcliffe insists anyone is capable of anything, given the right circumstances. And Fitz's changed circumstance? His father not leaving. His father was a piece of shit, and unfortunately, since he never left, he's turned Fitz into a piece of shit just like him.
Ophelia interrogates Daisy, even offering Lincoln up as a reward if she just stops trying to fight. Ophelia insists all she's doing is giving them their greatest wish, and Daisy says sometimes what people want isn't right for them. So like with Fitz, I guess there's a part of him that wanted his father back, not realizing his father leaving was the best thing that had ever happened to him.
Back at the SHIELD base, Jemma's losing patience since the longer they stay there, the bigger the danger of them dying. Like Mace risking his life going on these missions for "a bunch of ones and zeros" that don't matter. She tries telling Mace the truth, but hilariously, since they're not really friends, he asks her to tell him something about himself. And she has no answers to give.
Of course, she starts eating her words about these people being inconsequential when she sees Mack with his daughter. Ward ends up being the one she's forced to discuss this all with. He asks her, Mack believes this is all real, she can see for herself. Even if that love is directed towards a fake construct, does it make it any less real? Like for all her talk, when time comes to help Coulson and Mace on their mission (to rescue Tripp, who's also "alive" in this universe) and Ward is about to ask Mack for help, Jemma says they can't. Like she's worried about leaving this fake child fatherless.
In any case, May snaps out of it- heh, Coulson literally tells her to snap out of it. It actually isn't about trying to wake her up to her real self though. So Hydra ends up bombing a building to try to take Mace out. May is fine with that, until she realizes children were in the building. And then she finds the Patriot holding up the building so a trapped kid can escape. Obviously, this shakes her to her core- Hydra just brought down a building with kids in it, and here is her most hated enemy, an inhuman, sacrificing himself to save a kid. Like she's so confused she just standing there holding a gun at them. And so Coulson tells her to kill them, or not, but to snap out of it and do something!
Not sure how much May has woken up, but whatever it is, it comes at the cost of Mace's life- we see in the real world that his vitals are flatlined. And for what its worth, Aida does seems saddened by this. Wonder if Aida is simultaneously active in the real world and in the framework, or if Ophelia is a different entity. Like same core programming, but different because of her experiences in the framework.
But yeah, May's drive and hatred of Inhumans stems from the Cambridge incident. So she could be merely shaken by the fact that her own people were the ones trying to kill kids this time, and it was an inhuman that saved them. And this is just this version of her reacting to this incident, much like Mack went to SHIELD because he didn't want to disappoint his daughter.
Anyways, she totally steals a terrigen crystal and shatters it at Daisy's feet to awaken her. So next week should be interesting!
