Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Recap Part II: "...Ye Who Enter Here"

THIS IS THE EMERGENCY SPOILER ALERT SYSTEM...YOU ARE ADVISED TO READ AT YOUR OWN RISK...

Last week on this amazing show, by Marvel: the Killer of Feels, we were hit with a lot. Agent May, Skye and Hunter played a bit of rescue as Raina was nearly brought in by HYDRA. Agent 33 had no problem trying to kill Skye in order to get to Raina. Thanks to the Twins, Raina was saved and it seemed the extraction plan had gone off without a hitch.

Coulson, Fitz, Simmons, Mack, and Bobby traveled off to find the mysterious city. Most of it was under water and ground, but there were a few access points. It seemed everything was going to go just fine. Coulson had a plan to destroy the city with the contingency that nobody gets hurt. To the new Director there is no such thing as collateral damage. All lives matter, and he won't even accept one accidental death. Bobbi might just have a new found respect for him. Speaking of, she and Mack seem to know something the rest of us don't. Mack hints at her having something more going on and is surprised to see she hasn't brought Hunter on board. If you ask me, this may just be a hint at the Secret Avengers? Or I could be crazy and grasping at straws. Whatever it is, Mack and Bobbi know, and the rest of us don't. And that bothers me. What doesn't bother me, however, is their name dropping our mysterious blue aliens. Guess the Kree have made it to earth, and the city may have been the starting point of a massive take over. Whatever happened, humans seemed to have won out. Or got super lucky. 

Finding the temple isn't easy, but they do get down there. Mack goes to fix the broken drones while the rest wait. At the bottom of this massive 100ft canyon are some strange symbols. Our new agent makes the mistake of touching them and becomes....enraged? When he's pulled up, after some clear pain, Mack snaps out of it, but isn't himself. He's got no problem literally throwing people as he tries to kill them. The knock-out bullets Fitz has aren't working, and it's getting a bit scary. Mack ends up falling down the hole before he can be shot with real bullets, and the gravity of this situation weighs heavily on Coulson.

As if things couldn't get any worse, HYDRA has found the Bus and is forcefully boarding it. Ward confesses to using the tracker inside Raina to find them. He demands Raina be given to them. May makes the hard call of letting her go, but Ward decides last minute that he'll take Skye too. Seems he really wants her to meet her father. Raina lets it purposefully slip that Skye has the coordinates to the City, and it's all gone to hell. It's only after they leave that agent 33 informs Whitehall that Ward let the Bus go. He demands it to be shot down.

Tonight, we get to see Skye meeting her dad and hopefully find out that Mack is okay. While he's a new addition, he's too pretty to lose!
