They were also villains when Stan & Jack first started doing them. (Of course, considering that they won't get rid of the Slave Engine, one could argue that they're still a button-push away from being villains now.)

"Atwellian pulchritude" is the agreed-upon terminology.

It was several days (less than 2 weeks), based on last week's episode with the flight crew.
Aida's prisoners were on IV feeding, so not even May should be dehydrated. I would imagine Simmons was smart enough to do the same for herself & Daisy.

Even just sometime like a 12-episode run starting from January would be good. It would bring the show up to 100 episodes, give them room to tell a good pod-length story like the 3 this season while still finding a solid note to end on, & build towards Infinity War.

It doesn't help that—in contrast with Inhumans like Daisy Johnson or Kamala Khan—the Inhuman royal family are a bunch of xenophobic entitled douchebags with a superiority complex.
Also, Medusa's costume in the promo photo sucked.

The most shocking thing about this episode was the lack of LMDs at the base.

I'm pretty sure Davis is dead. But at least we still have Piper.

So you're saying AoS 5 will be SMB 2?

Doesn't really matter, since that would just push them through the portal FASTER.

The book itself is (evil) magic, but it's capable of providing purely-scientific information (evil science, but still science).

Well, I believe Daisy and/or Simmons incapacitated it when they were escaping the base, but not nearly as badly as the Mack LMD, so the Fitz LMD should have no trouble repairing it.

a) Without Aida or Radcliffe, the Framework poses no threat whatsoever. Ivanov doesn't care about it, & no one else knows it exists.
b) Radcliffe has lost his God complex; Agnes's death FINALLY taught him his lesson.

Agreed. Jagger's vocals are the worst on the album—Stone has great range, and both Marley & Rahman wisely stay in their wheelhouses (while Stewart wisely keeps his mouth shut). But Mick just sounds…wrong.

Did you just assume that steel mill's sexuality?

It's ABC's decision, not Marvel's.

That wasn't a scan; it was a reconfiguration. Aida mentioned earlier in the season that every new real person plugged into the Framework requires a reset of the simulation's history, so we got to see the reverse is true as well.

I loved seeing Piper & O'Brien have dialogue besides "Yes, sir, Agent May!" & things to do besides be generic backup who happen to have familiar faces. I hated seeing them defer to Yo-Yo for orders when technically they should outrank her.

Re: #1: If that's true, then they're all doomed. Aida has her free will on the real-world-level & can just walk into the room & shut off the Framework whenever the hell she wants, while the agents would need to find ANOTHER backdoor exit. Since the rest of the season is 2 hours rather than 2 minutes, it's not gonna

I mean, she was a robot, so….

Radcliffe did that before Aida made changes.
