Very excited this is back for season 3. I'm going to bet they will have a crossover with Captain America: Civil War next May. The movie's opening will be pretty close to the season 3 finale.

Moved pretty quick. Lots happened. New faces.
It'll be interesting to see what's up with Simmons.
... oh, and Fitz has some big cajones!

Why would they turn Mockingbird into a lab scientist? I guess this episode was them officially telling us they are dropping the Skye moniker going forward. I doubt we see her hacking abilities mentioned ever again.
I don't think I'll stick with this series all season. While this was a solid episode, I am hanging by a thread sticking with it.
Where are my powers? I've taken plenty of fish oil and never developed them.

Because she is also a biochemist in the comics.

As for why now, it's part of her recuperating from last season. She pretty much says in the show that's she's not fully up to snuff yet, so think of her going back to her scientist roots as her "desk job" while she continues to heal.

best episode of the entire run, IMO.
any idea why Ward is in the promo shot? is he going to be taking a page out of the WWF's book and become good again?

Heard DARPA mentioned. Wonder if the woman with multiple identities is some kind of super secret U.S. government agent who jumps agencies wherever her skills are needed. Or she works for an agency so secret nobody, not even SHIELD knows it exists. Looks like the government is after Inhumans for military applications.

Wow, Marvel is going full steam ahead on making Inhumans the new Mutant threat.
Great episode. Love the interaction between Coulson and Roslyn. This is Coulson a his best.
And Fitz continues to impress. When Jemma gets back, he better do something more than give her a hug and mumble some lame thing about how it's good to have her back.

Well, they've certainly sexed up Skye this season. I hope Agent Tight T-Shirt heals up and get back out on the field, she's shown that she's pretty cool and capable on stunt scenes and fights, she should be muscle who's in on the action. Would it have killed them to have had a recap of some sort, LOL? I mean, it's been a while since the last season, I've sort of forgotten a few things… They got me up to speed pretty quickly though. Interesting from here, but wonder if the show will finally spread it's wings this year. Last year show that it finally find a direction that was actually interesting could sustain more episodes than the meandering first season.

Fitz was pretty awesome in this episode. Hope there's some sort of continued character growth for him. The weird creature in the hospital looked kind of crappy, but its nice that the show is trying to show things other then humanoids. Solid opener though.

The only thing sorely missing from the episode was May. I mean really? Taking a vacation?
Liked seeing Skye in full form as Daisy. She's come a long way from being the young computer hacker in season 1.
Yeah I didn't really like seeing Bobbi stuck in a lab. She's way too badass for shit like that.
Agree with everyone that Fitz was great. Enjoyed seeing the torment he was experiencing about Simmons.
So Simmons is trapped in some kind of phantom zone. Should be interesting next week.

So what was that big hairy blue thing in the hospital that we can assume that was killing Inhumans? Was it another Inhuman or something else?

I know that they're trying to make her into the comic book character, but I just don't get the logic that someone would go by one name all their life, one day find out the birth name that was given to her by her (psycho) parents, and suddenly go back to that. At least she has a better haircut than last season.
Also, the CGI in the opening with the guys flying thru the air when Daisy first appeared was as bad as anything from the beginning of Season one.

Correct me if I'm wrong. I never read a comic in my life. I think that the "pure Inhumans" have a big problem with the impure Inhumans. They're royalty and they don't like the impure. So the woman with the big change in appearance last season will be welcomed. But the others are to be exterminated.
