Flash and SHIELD
Flash
I think this is the best episode this season. SO glad they're at least giving lip service to how awful locking all the metahumans up is. It's the first I've heard of a plan for "rehabilitation." Those cells are tiny, and isolation is torture. If Cisco had that weird energy suppression device this whole time, then he could have at least taken them out of isolation.
Captain Cold was very entertaining. And these lesser troublemakers running around will give us more entertainment. What was up with Firestorm though? He was just there? And said nothing?
The Iris love triangle business was tiresome and really dragged down the momentum. BUT I was happy to hear Eddie say that there have always been three people in this relationship: him, Iris, and Barry. YES, it's what I've been saying this whole time! OT3! Now they all need to keessss. And the Iris/Barry/Eddie tag on AO3 needs more works.
SHIELD
Wow, Skyemom is evil. Is that how she's survived all these years? Evil Queen style?
I was so distracted by Hipster Beard Guy. Doesn't SHIELD have grooming standards...?
Wow, Raina sacrificing herself for the greater good. I never would have guessed.
Bobbi is great! The tension with her and Hunter, and sacrificing herself omg. And the parallels with Ward... But did Bobbi mean she "can't do" being an agent or being with Hunter?
Lol, did Mac call those multiladies ginger ninjas?
Coulson talking down Skyedad was a great moment.
The baseball bat puns were a little much... Is Coulson going to get a metal arm now too? I'm kind of surprised he didn't reach with his dominant hand, unless he's left handed.
Is Skyemom actually succeeding at Magneto's plan of killing or mutating all baselines? I hope someone finally gets to execute that plan. Lol, she is giving Erik's speech to Charles ("side by side") to Skye. I was reading someone's idea that Wanda activating all the latent inhumans in Sokovia to fight Ultron (like Buffy and the potentials) would have been a better ending to AoU, and I agree. Of course, that hopefully wouldn't involve killing all the baselines. But, meh.
I'm glad that May is getting a vacation and that she is friends with her ex, who is a cool dude.
Is Ward going to take on Hydra or...? I'm annoyed that Kara had to die for more Ward fakepain.
Kyle MacLachlan is a gift. Did Skyedad ASK to be re-memoried??? I sure hope so.
Lol, next season I predict SHIELD will be fighting inhuman SHARKNADOS. I hope Mike Peterson is on Skye's team.
GEMMA!!! What even is that thing in the box. There have been so many macguffins I completely forgot what this one was.
I'm still confused about SHIELD's official status as an agency or whatever. Do they have money to run these ops? Where is it coming from?
