I can think of a couple scenes along the same lines, both Kirk and Spock ("See, we're already getting to know each other" in '09 and "I suppose you're about to remind me that logic alone dictates your actions?" in TWOK).

I've been seeing the show largely uncensored via iTunes, but I still noticed that the finale was far and away had the fuckiest fucking fucks that have fucked so far this fucking season. I don't think the earlier episodes ever had more than one or two each.

Does AV Club EVER rate a show a solid A?

Considering how valuable the damn thing is, Fred Johnson should give Naomi her own interstellar generation ship, but gold-plated.

Though it certainly looked a lot like an exploded diagram. Julie was a gearhead, she'd probably saw a lot of drawings like that in spaceship manuals and Popular Science Fiction articles.

And it was more than just a premonition; Julie imagined Miller as he was in that moment, still on Ceres, with his hat, and the real bird. Between that and Miller dreaming about Julie saying the things she'd say when he actually found her, the entity down on Venus was certainly going to a lot of trouble to retcon its…

When I was a kid, I once had a dream about a spaceship being vivisected by an advanced alien; not destroying it, but carefully disassembling it, like it was cleaning a watch while the watch was still going, splitting each piece off and pealing it open to peak at how it worked.

All stories sound crappy when you sum them up.

Yeah, but Fitz's childhood, Coulson's career, Mack starting a family, and Mace being a potential Inhuman wouldn't have had much effects beyond their own lives to that point. May's change is what really kicked off the snowball effect and started causing wide-reaching differences in the world. I don't see how anything…

The good old unspoken plan guarantee. If we'd heard what it was, we'd already know it won't work.

Aida could make a Lincoln. And she could probably make a new Agnes, just like the old one. Only Agnes would know if she was really brought back, though. Well, and Radcliff, since he designed the thing, so he probably has a better idea of the finer philosophical points of consciousness, identity, and the soul within…

Fitz is making good moral choices. He's doing what need to be done to preserve society, unclouded by sentiment or weakness. Doing what feels good in the moment despite the larger harm is amoral. Anarchical, even. How many people would've been hurt if he'd let that strange woman live? According to the two people he…

Well, they might be, thanks to Darkhold magic. The Framework is already comprehensive enough that it strains belief that the simulation was populated by any earthly source of knowledge.

It seems likely, though. Fitz mentioned his machine allowed them to determine an Inhuman's powers without triggering the change, which suggests the powers are innate, and don't depend on the circumstances of the change.

IIRC, it wasn't the husk that killed Tripp, but the fact that he destroyed the crystal, which destroyed the Diviner, a piece of which hit him. The casing was the dangerous part. We've seen humans handle husks and pure crystals without any problem.

My guess would be that she would disappear. Logic suggests the system would use the same protocol it used for Radcliff when he was dipping in and out, and it seems unlikely that he'd want his avatar going around on autopilot messing up his virtual life whenever he was AFK.

Really, four episodes? I thought "Farewell, Cruel World!" was the finale in two weeks, but now I see there are two additional, unnamed episodes.

Apparently Mace's greatest regret was being a fake superhero.

Except the fight on the aircraft carrier never would've happened. This seems like it might be a fun bonus scene for the DVDs with Simmons and Daisy trying to work out how they could power her back up and realizing there's no viable plan.

It'd be just too easy if everyone's new life ended up being a monkey's paw. One of them just had to get an unqualified win, to really twist the knife.
