3.16 Paradise Lost

[Anushka Mokosh]

"The team hunts for information on a new enemy; Malick's secret from his past threatens to destroy his Hydra legacy."

May being excited at the prospect of killing Ward too gave me a nice chuckle. xD

Discuss away.

The fight between May and Giyera was one of the best fights so far, although it is understandable when we take into account actual abilities of Dacascos.

Straya Ward was interesting character, although him not gaining ability now is probably for the best for him. I don't think he would enjoy meeting up with the Ancient Inhuman. That being said, his location can't even give him powers via rain, like it happened with Charles.
Also, his scene gives a bit more of basis of Andrew's/Lash's claim on Lincoln having a dark side, just like he was acting pretty OK with Joey, with having visions of killing him only when he directed the conversation on using the power offensively. A hint on Lash being able to sense such?

I wonder who will be in the Secret Warriors team. I hope for Ginger Ninja and that SHIELD retrieved the Inhuman that Australians were making tests on (his name was in the files from that multi country meeting with Talbot, and he's a comics character and member of the team).

I liked the twist when Hive/Ward/Nathaniel Malick killed Stephanie Malick. I did not see it coming, especially after Hive seemed to hit things off with Stephanie, told Gideon that she had a significant role to play and that he would need a Malick by his side. Nice.
I am still unclear whether it was his daughter's death Gideon saw in the future or his own.

I didn't see her death coming either, but it worked perfectly.

In the vision, it was his own death. I wonder if his daughter's murder will provoke him to work against Ward, which subsequently leads to his death.

I'm absolutely loving this series. I don't know if it was a deliberate reaction to the quality of Agent Carter, but this series of SHIELD has been excellent.

The way Hive dealt with Malick was brilliant. I really didn't see that coming. As mentioned above, the May/Giyera fight was fantastic. So well choreographed.

It's a significant step up from previous series. Fitz has also been excellent.
