Ooooopps

Welllllll…what if Fitz is Odysseus and he helped create the island for aida? Closer comparison no?

Wait. Did we hear a throwaway line or two about how time slows down in the real world when in the framework? I was wondering about what LMD Mace and Fitz would be up to and for how long once we return to the real world.

Yeah..it was that Seal Team 6 show that this History Channel launched its original programming slate with

But it was definitely one of those 'layers' you observed but can't articulate. I was also thinking that she recognizes that authentic, lasting relationships require honesty…so she has to tell Fitz as much of.the truth as possible. Also too…weren't there several scenes in the LMD pod that showed gemma's annoyance with…

Intriguing

Not sure how plausible this theory is but i must say it is totally ingenious!!

No no…i was actually thinking you are making good points that would be even more grounded with the context of the rest of the season.

But syndication as implemented vs. Syndication as owned and contracted are different right?

I think you should go back and watch the LMD story arc (pod?) From this season. It will help to explain who she is and why she is like that. Also…maybe check out Madame Hydra in the comments? Idk. Will let others respond to this!

Just rewatched (haven't done that since before DVR was a thing) and pause on Gemma's Hydra file. Her obit is included and it says pretty clearly that she is faculty at the academy. So we know why she was there (not as a student) and we know it wasn't as long ago as is being speculated (by some comments).

Completely feel your insight on Quinn. What's the chances that he is still alive healed and found a way to contribute to society and we discover that next season? The only other reason the Quinn honor would be an offscreen occurence worth just a side mention is if his (and Astrid's) death was meant for more of a…

It may have been but I must say the picture of the older John Jr. Was such a fitting tribute to a quinn without all the pain. Same eyes. So whoever screwed up the continuity still gets points for the artistic eye!
Also..can't remember if Carrie knew about his son or not.

So but yeah…what of the secret bunker and the bots?

I am pretty sure that is why there was a shot of only 1 blown up car and they made an obvious fuss out of secret service noting the decoy car and that protocol is that Chief of Staff rides with POTUS. They then said Rob was in the car that blew up. I think he is dead, but another example of this slightly all over the…

Yes. I think there will be a plot point around Aida misperceiving what each of their greatest regrets are. In fact maybe them recognizing she got it wrong will be the thing that crashes the framework (or at least their uplink). May's story seems particularly aligned with this theory.

I would also add that this season's Arrow seems to be fixing what it broke.

Lil bit annoyed by the return of this joke…until this one. Laughed out loud.

I think the statement is also that removing our regrets/pain can lead to an even worse reality. One where our trauma doesn't translate into a little bit of hope for the world (May, Fitz, etc.)

I can't believe I forgot about trip!! I am now excited about the hilarity that will ensue once gemma discovers this!
