Really enjoyed seeing every thing out in the open in this episode. The whole message between the Russian guy and gal really threw me; totally thought she was going to kill him for talking. It seems like Fonseca's character wasn't anything special after all given what happened.

Feels weird that there's only 2 episodes left to wrap everything up.

Enjoyed this episode a lot. Sorry it will be ending soon. I like this more than Agents of Shield.

I think that only having eight episodes is what makes this work so much better than Agents of SHIELD. It moves along at a faster pace, there aren't any filler episodes dragging it down, and it is using the time it's gives to tell a tight, economical tale.

Didn't care for the episodes. The kiss was pandering to males. You have this super black widow spy that killed a guy in a instant and yet with Peggy she kisses her and then delays the kill.

Jarvis getting slapped over and over I guess was suppose to be funny but I found it kind of sexist.

I didn't like the way they had Peggy handle the interrogation scene. She came off as rude and disrespectful. I also didn't understand why she didn't go interrogate the guy after the other guys were done.

I didn't hate the episode. I liked the mind control scenes. This was just a disappointing episode for me.

I don't know that the kiss was pandering. Then again to have whatever drug ready on a chance meeting instead of a gun seems a little odd.

Considering the times this takes place in slapping Jarvis was in character. Perhaps not in this day and age since many women will have sex with a perfect stranger at the drop of a hat and many will drop the hat themselves.

I saw it as her being fixated on her target/goal and the interrogation was irritating as once again her fellow agents were dismissing her and her talents.

I didn't like the mind control scene. It seemed forced and rushed esp. against the agent.

I feel the exact opposite. I think this show had a good beginning, slow middle, and now it seems to be picking up the pace. They could have easily made this an entertaining 5 or 6 episode miniseries. Other than the first half of the first season, AoS has been a much better show.

Love the twist that they have thrown into the show last night.

Last 2 shows should wrap it all up...with some of the events spilling into the future.

I'm curious what the end of the show is. I had always assumed it would be the creation of SHIELD, but I guess that seems unlikely given where Peggy is now with only 2 episodes to go.

I don't get the lipstick drug thing anyway. Wouldn't it have the same effect on the person wearing it?

So why did Lee Harvey have to put that entire riffle together if all she was going to use was the scope.
I know they wanted us to think she was going to shoot, but c'mon. Stuff like that is tired.

Didn't the gun flash a signal?

The scope did. Other than that ,the rest of the gun went unused as far as I could tell.

You have to remember this "limited" series was always prepared to become a full series next year if it was popular in the ratings. ABC and Marvel desperately wanted it to succeed. I think the creation of SHIELD was likely being saved if it got a full season pick-up for next year.

I think an 8-episode season after every season of AoS (assuming it doesn't get cancelled already) is just about right for this show. The limited episodes help keep the production values high since they don't have to spread their resources over too many episodes.

I agree that the lipstick was silly. Her orders were to kill Peggy and, up until the dentist, she wasn't one to "play" with her victims. Unless the use of the lipstick was a callback to her unique weapons fetish.

It was fun to watch Peggy beat up those agents at the automat. I was hoping that we'd get to see her fight the Russian widow agent, maybe next week.

Not too familiar with the comics other than knowing names and looking up references on wiki but with the Captain America Blood and the Russians involved, could this be part of the origin of Winter Soldier?

Hell, the Russian Girl's training would be foolish in not linking together with Black Widow's origin down the road.

Agree completely. Doesn't make sense at all.

I just realized that the guy in prison was Buzz in Home Alone. Woof!

Also... Dotty was in John Wick. I thought she looked much more attractive in that as the tatted pin-up looking bartender.

Great Ep.
Much like what the the Empire did to the "Good Guys" in Disney's other major franchise/Property Star Wars...The Russians/Leviathan Folks have crawled deep into the S.S.R.'s ass and are about to do some damage.

Yeah, they wanted us to think she was going to kill him before it was revealed they were working together. Doesn't really make sense to put the whole gun together if she had no intentions of shooting anything, the scope alone would have been enough, but I guess that's not dramatic enough.

Possibly just a pure made up element on my part, but maybe if it looked he was in trouble (made as a spy), she was going to shoot him to prevent the SSR from getting anything from him. But since he was OK (cover not blown) we only saw them communicating with each other.
