geebsTV commentary:
Agents of SHIELD- Pretty clever trick there. So Robbie showed up to take the Darkhold and Aida, since she's made of that dark energy, back to hell. Thus, he's the only thing that can hurt her.
So they trick Aida by having her teleport in and hold Jemma hostage. So of course, Fitz does anything to save Jemma, including telling Aida where the Darkhold is and how he'll get it from her. She seemingly kills Jemma, though I guess in her arrogance she didn't foresee they'd obviously use the LMD trick against her.
Thus, when she confronts Coulson Jemma shoots her in the back. Of course, that doesn't do anything to her, Jemma just wanted the satisfaction of shooting her. No, its only a distraction, because the Spirit of Vengeance was hiding in Coulson. So Ghost Rider kills her.
Interesting though, there's a mystery there- Robbie is all, "you know why the Rider let you make that deal?" and Coulson is all, "Don't tell anyone, I'll break it to them eventually." Wonder what that's all about.
In the end, they seemingly get arrested because of all the chaos of the last couple of eps, only they don't really? The fed/military guys who show up freeze them with some special tech. And in the end Coulson wakes up... on a space station!
The Americans- Heh, the Henry stuff kinda cracks me up. I mean, it must be doubly damning- like last week, they had to see Pastor Tim secretly say that they've irrevocably destroyed Paige. Now, they see the one child they've been ignoring actually thriving.
And there's a whole lot of threads here- like I've said before, somehow Henry is in the perfect position to be the second generation spy the Centre has been wanting. Like he's friends with a counter-intel FBI agent, who's like a surrogate father. Stan actually takes Henry to work for a tour since Henry is writing a story on the FBI for the school paper. He learns some things, and its funny to see him tell his parents, because their ears perk up when he nonchalantly mentions all the "cool" things he saw.
Even funnier is when Stan breaks it to Henry that he can't trust anybody because of his job. How it probably ruined his family. Which is kinda heavy, but I guess he saw Henry seemed interested in being an FBI agent, and Stan was just trying to give him the reality of it. But yeah, Henry totally could be a feeb.
Plus, he's going to that fancy school where Senators' children go. Its interesting, because I think part of the reason they agree to let Henry go there is to get away from all this. But how can they? The centre would wonder where Henry is going. And I think once they hear, they'd be chomping at the bit!
Though its an interesting situation, because even if the Jennings weren't shaky, Claudia and the Centre have to know recruiting Henry at this point would be difficulty. Paige is a mess, and honestly, the fact that Stan is like a dad to Henry, he might just turn them in.
Which is another thing, they've effed up Henry and don't even know it. Like after this week's mission, Elizabeth wants to retire. And there's no one the kids would be cool with it. And if they decide to leave them, all these opportunities Henry will go up in smoke. Like even if he could find a stable home, there's no way he's getting into that school, no way the FBI won't wonder if he was some sort of child spy who was trying to get close to Stan.
But what kinda crazy mission was that? The Centre is really hunting down some lady who killed some Russian soldiers back in WWII? And she was hardly a Nazi collaborator. She was a teenage girl who was put in a horrible situation where she was forced to kill her people or die herself.
Elizabeth, ever the loyal soldier, still puts a bullet in the lady and her husband when Phillip can't do it. Though this is the thing that finally breaks her and tell Phillip they should go home.
