iaria6x03 'Fear and Loathing on the Planet of Kitson
+ High Daisy and Jemma were a lot of fun. I loved them laughing hysterically over Davis eating 6, their tearful declaration that they were each other's best friend, Jemma commiserating with Daisy about her terrible love life and Jemma aiming Daisy's arm for her.
+ Often characters doing anything it takes to save the person they love works for me but sometimes it doesn't and Jemma at the beginning of the episode was the latter. What she did was wrong and a betrayal of her friends, who had been going above and beyond for her and Fitz, so her not only being completely unapologetic but actively combative with them over it left me super annoyed with her. Them all being drugged was an easy way to smooth over some of that, and it worked for me, so whatever.
+ Epoch calling Fitz his best friend was adorable but I wish we'd seen a little more from Fitz's side to make his "you're mine too" work better for me.
6x04 'Code Yellow'
+ Poor Keller and poor Yo-Yo. I felt really bad for her. I've been mostly neutral about him as a character, nice enough but nothing particularly interesting, and then this episode made me like him before killing him. He had two lines that really amused me:
"Not 'fight' fight, Mack terrifies me." LOL. I don't blame him.
"It's probably too fast but how would you feel about bringing an alien bird into our relationship?" Heh. I like a character with a sense of humour in dire situations.
+ Not-Coulson and his team messed up by leaving the infected dude, even if he was 'killed', if the only thing needed to revive it was to remove the knife. That's just sloppy!
+ Couldn't Yo-Yo have used her speed to grab the alien parasite bird as it was climbing into Keller's mouth and tried to pull it out? There were several seconds there where she was staring in shock that she could have tried it.
+ Deke creating a tech start-up with his future tech knowledge makes a strange amount of sense and while I loved the shot of Mack arguing with him in the background during the epilogue shouldn't Mack have known exactly what Deke was doing? What exactly has Agent Khan been putting in his reports?
