Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaWhen Daisy is talking to Robin and her mother, she says she wanted to introduce them to a friend of hers who has a practice nearby. He likes animals too, she said. She was clearly referring to her Dad who had been put through the Tahiti protocol and given a new identity/life.
- GoofsSince a thermonuclear bomb burns at over 180,000,000 degrees Fahrenheit there was really no danger at all of ANYTHING surviving the blast- either in Earth's atmosphere or in space.
- Quotes
Daisy 'Skye' Johnson: [crying] You can't just die for me like this. It's... it's wrong!
Lincoln Campbell: I don't know, saving the girl I love and the world at the same time? Feels pretty right to me.

Featured review
Grant gets his "Absolution"
Everything that led up to this kicked me in the rear. "All Inhumans were made for a specific purpose" - Lincoln. What is Lincoln's purpose? We find out here.
It's "Follow Yo Yo's Cross" - As we already knew DaisySkyeQuake had seen it floating in a quin-jet before blowing up. That's what she gets got letting herself get touched by an Inhuman who could cause people to see "their own deaths".
This episode presents us with "Free Will vs Predestination" or rather, Free will vs Determinism. My vote always goes to Free Will, and thankfully Daisy's Free Will was stymied by Lincoln's.
But this episode puts a Lid on the Grant Ward tale, and in such a way as to redeem himself. Of course, he is no longer Grant, but Hive/Maveth- But Maveth's unique talents allowed him to actually be Grant, one last time- And to remember things he had done as Grant that were good. Meanwhile, Hydra finally gets iced. But as you know, there are new bad guys, watch out for Watchdogs, Ghosts, and guys with flaming skulls- and "life model decoys"
