How would Agnes become the head of Hydra? She's just a normal woman.

And how he doodles the S.H.I.E.L.D. logo and writes "It's a magical place" like he's Jack Torrance.

World-building from Coulson's newspaper clippings:

That's not a knife, that's a spoon…

Missed the whole thing because a portion of I-85 collapsed in the middle of Atlanta and that is all the major networks were talking about tonight.

He's a mass murderer who killed Gypsy's partner, holds Iris' inevitable death over Barry and Joe's heads, and mortally wounds

He's always gonna be the guy from Outsourced, sadly.
