I was expecting something unexpected at the end, SHIELD style.
But in the end it wasn't what I expected. Love it!
Wow... Didn't see that coming...
Why the hell didn’t Jaco just throw the bomb through the portal? The explosion would have destroyed the ship either way, he didn’t have to carry the bomb over there.. Except this big unnecessary plothole a decent episode. Like the „chemistry“ between Sarge and Mac. Deke is getting a bit annoying though.
"Daisy Ex Machina" digs the writers out of their own hole once again. Pretty good episode otherwise.
Don't even try to kill Davis. #DavisLives
Why didn’t just gently threw out the bomb through the bus window??? Or why didn’t Jaco just threw the bomb through the portal instead of killing himself too? But it was cool seeing Daisy user her powers in new ways
Okay now that was a spectacular episode. Shield at it's best. And what about that ending. Did not see that coming at all.
Why didn't Jaco just drop the bomb on the portal???
"Are all the females on this planet this powerful"
- "They are"
It'd be hilarious if it wasn't so retarded.
As for the ending... I bet it'll be a cop-out.
Yay, just what everyone was hoping for, more awful Mack-Elena romance. Definitely not a waste of time. Speaking of bad romances, this Deke and Snowflake thing needs to stop already. I get that it's played for laughs, but it was never funny.
As other people commented, Jaco totally could've just thrown the bomb through the portal. Dumb plot contrivance to kill him off and make the rest of the characters feel like they're done with the job.
Yay, the team's back together, even Yo-Yo and Mac. And the story's still a mystery :) I'd never seen it coming that agent May would shoot Sarge, pretty sure there's more to that - maybe Izel?. Davis didn't seem to be alright either...
Anyway, Bobo and Deke where quite fun to watch (I hope there will be more scenes like that).
Wow, I never saw that coming. Maybe it was a virtual murder? What's his face probably has a bird in him.
Could have been the season finale.
This one was a great episode with a horrible and unforgivable lull at the end, followed by a heck of an exit.

[7.2/10] A little underwhelming as a quasi-finale. I find it interesting that, even reduced to a 13 episode season order, AoS is still going with episode pods. It leaves me curious to see where the show plans to go over the last four episodes of the season, though given that we never saw a body for Izel, and that Coulson’s favorite trick is coming back to life, I imagine this conflict isn’t over. (Also, I suspect that Agent Davis is afflicted with a shrike or Izel’s spirit or something like that from his time wandering around her ship.)
The things that this episode follows up on from the last episode are perfectly fine. It’s a neat enough solution to the bomb problem to have Daisy use her quake powers to stabilize the nuke or defeat the shrike bats. And May catching one of them with her knife before it gets to Deke is a great bit.
I also like the standoff with Coulson and Jaco taking over the Zephyr. Again, it’s nice to see Yo-Yo using her powers where it makes sense for her too, and I like Jaco’s change of heart. He’s honestly been the best addition to the show, someone you’d mistake as a dumb brute for stereotypes, but who is both smart and not especially combative when he doesn't need to be. Him seeing Sarge abandon Snowflake and shoot their other compatriot gives him good motivation, and his sacrifice at the end, while not especially affecting given how new he is, is at least a good beat for him to go out on.
And there’s even some minor tension with FitzSimmons on Izel’s ship trying to communicate with their allies without getting brainslugged by Izel. There’s not much to it, but it works.
Of course, there’s always a bit of fun when the day is won and everyone’s back at base hanging out. Mac and Yo-Yo reuniting is a welcome development since the show didn’t really know what to do with them when they were apart. Getting to know a bit more about Sarge and the tease that Izel knows who and what he is was intriguing. And while I still think the show will go back on it, I love that May says to herself, “time to stop being sentimental”, and just blows Sarge away at the end.
Overall, this was a bit deflating as a grand finale, but it had plenty of enjoyable parts to it.
