Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 7 Episode 3 delved into the Space 51 conspiracy idea, and it was nothing in need of implausible.
In fact, S.H.I.E.L.D. could be those behind the top-secret navy base, who else could be experimenting with house expertise? If solely S.H.I.E.L.D. was an actual company, or perhaps it’s?
I do not know, however conspiracy theories are the definition of enjoyable and immersing oneself into fiction is sort of cathartic. And that’s what made the 1955 episode so entertaining as two MCU exhibits collided.
It has been teased that Enver Gjokaj would seem on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 7 as Daniel Sousa, who was a essential character on the sadly short-lived Marvel’s Agent Carter.
And now the present is cashing in on their promise, and we couldn’t be extra delighted with the end result.
Coulson: Sorry, actually.
Sousa: Let me out of right here, proper now!
Coulson: I am a fan.
Simmons: He actually is!
Daisy: We are the good guys, I swear!
For everybody who didn’t watch Marvel’s Agent Carter, Sousa was Peggy Carter’s accomplice and eventual love curiosity. Now, everyone knows that Peggy was the love of Steve Rogers’ life, and it could have been very tough for anybody to fill his sneakers.
However Sousa was a sort, light man who fought for what was proper. If anybody was going to be deserving of Peggy apart from Captain America himself, it could be Sousa.
His entrance on this hour of Brokers of S.H.I.E.L.D. was epic, and Coulson’s habits when interacting with him was consultant of everybody who got here to like Sousa on his unique present.
What higher solution to pay homage to the roots of S.H.I.E.L.D. than to not solely journey again in time to its beginnings however to additionally point out and present the distinguished gamers who helped form the group?
It’s also a pleasure to observe the primary characters fangirl over their very own private heroes, in flip making them very relatable to comedian guide followers in all places.
Coulson: We all know Space 51 is a S.H.I.E.L.D. base.
Daisy: We do?
Coulson: All of the Areas are.
Daisy: Wow, conspiracy me was so proper.
From the second the brokers met Sousa, all of them have been within the slightest bit smitten with him, whereas nonetheless conscious that they’d a job to do.
It will undoubtedly mess with the timeline in the event that they revealed their true identities to him, however I could not assist however yell at my display for them to take action. His response would most probably be hilarious, but in addition heartwarming.
With the cliffhanger that ended the hour, the chances are that Sousa will grace our screens once more on Brokers of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 7 Episode 4, so the probabilities are infinite for interactions between him and the brokers from the long run.
With the arrival of Daniel Sousa, it was nearly a on condition that Peggy Carter could be introduced up in some capability. However Simmons disguising herself as Agent Carter herself when displaying up at Space 51 was sensible.
It’s well-known that Peggy is without doubt one of the those that Simmons appears as much as probably the most, and I’m keen to wager this is not the primary time she has dressed up like her hero.
Man: Welcome, sir. You might be on our customer listing, however your secretary shouldn’t be.
Coulson: Oh, she’s not my secretary. She’s my boss.
Simmons: I believe you may agree, I do not must be on the listing.
Man: Proper. Sorry, ma’am. It is an honor. Uh, proper this manner Miss Carter.
Coulson: You are having fun with this manner an excessive amount of, Peggy.
If there was any risk of Simmons truly getting the prospect to satisfy Peggy, now could be it.
Perhaps it simply did not logistically work out for getting Hayley Atwell to seem on the present, however what a missed alternative it could be if she doesn’t pop up alongside Sousa on the subsequent episode.
And since Brokers of S.H.I.E.L.D. doesn’t appear to maintain up with the continuity of the MCU movies anymore, why not have Hayley Atwell visitor star? It will make an already superb closing season all of the extra particular.
Other than the story revolving round Peggy Carter and Daniel Sousa, a couple of of the staff members struggled with their very own private points as they tried to cease the Chronicoms from killing a considerable amount of distinguished S.H.I.E.L.D. brokers.
Daisy felt no regret for ordering Deke to kill Freddy on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 7 Episode 2, however Deke had a change of coronary heart after being advised by Mack that he was, in actual fact, an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Given the truth that Deke was already feeling a little bit of hesitancy when pointing his gun at Freddy, it was not far fetched for him to inform Daisy that he felt uncomfortable about the way it all went down.
Deke: I am not…Look, I am not the man you met within the Lighthouse, not anymore. And I do not need to be.
Daisy: I do know.
Deke has gone by way of a whole lot of character improvement since he first appeared on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 5. Whereas he nonetheless accommodates points of his goofy self, he is much more keen to assist others.
It’s good to see him standing up for his personal beliefs, and Daisy respecting him for it. Each character on the present has their very own set of opinions, and to see them respect one another as an alternative of arguing is refreshing to see.
Whereas Deke was going by way of an emotional change, each Might and Yo-Yo have been going by way of bodily ones.
Might has been nearly Chronicom-like since she awoke on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 7 Episode 1. She has been unfeeling and able to throw herself into motion.
However as soon as she did, it was clear that she was not prepared for the expertise of truly being within the discipline. It was nearly as if Might had had a panic assault when attempting to identify the actual Chronicom.
No matter she is feeling, it’s time to talk it. In any other case, she is going to begin to spiral, and everybody simply desires her to be glad, given all that she has needed to undergo.
Yo-Yo’s powers as soon as once more failed her, and the reason for it appears to be the Shrike that inhabited her on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 6 Episode 13.
I am unable to assist however assume that is a pink herring. Might one thing else be messing together with her pace? Perhaps her new arms?
No matter it’s, now shouldn’t be the time to lose one of many two brokers with actual powers, not counting Coulson, because the Chronicoms are going to be powerful to beat.
Yo-Yo: So after the whole lot we have seen, nobody blinks twice at a lady pilot?
Might: Girls pilots within the 40s and 50s outflew the boys. They needed to since we have been towing their targets for goal follow.
Yo-Yo: Whoa, spectacular. However still-
Might: Sexist? Yeah.
And with the arrival of a brand new Chronicom, Sibyl, they only acquired much more intimidating. The entire Chronicoms now we have seen to date have been so-called Hunters, however Sibyl is a Predictor.
The brokers can tackle brute power as seen on earlier episodes, however it’s one other factor to cope with super-intelligent beings who can presumably predict the long run. Let’s hope Fitz rejoins the staff quickly as a result of they’ll want him.
What did you assume, Brokers of S.H.I.E.L.D. Fanatics?
Do you hope Peggy makes an look? Do you’re keen on that the present is overtly speaking about racism as an alternative of pretending it would not exist?
And Coulson needs to be okay after getting hit with the digital, magnetic pulse, proper?
Let me know within the feedback, and don’t forget you could watch Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. online proper right here through TV Fanatic!
Brokers of S.H.I.E.L.D. airs on Wednesdays at 10/9c on ABC.
