Episode 20 of 22
Warning. This episode is connected to Avengers: Age of Ultron. There are plot elements from the movie that carry over to this episode.
It's explained somewhat here:
Spoiler:
If you have not seen the movie yet, be warned of movie spoilers watching this. If you don't watch the show and are curious, then none of this episode will make any sense to you since the show is pretty serialized.

It's all connected! Or its not!
I am curious about the spoiler point. But I'll just read about it after airing.

It's all connected until they decide it's not. Agents of SHEILD is like the Star Wars EU.

I would expect the opening act of Age of Ultron to have a pretty significant impact on Agents of SHIELD.

The team will probably be helping load people onto the flying life rafts.

From what I gather it looks like this episode is a big tie-in to an upcoming Inhumans movie. That's what it looks like anyways.

Just happened to tune in 15 mins in. I see lots of in humans. Was there an Ultron tie in?

^ Ultron tie-in was seeing the extra heli-carrier at the beginning.
They didn't just kill Morse/Mockingbird did they? Adrienne Palicki just can't hold down a job if so.

That was a pretty surprising turn of events at the end.
And I wonder how this ties in to the Inhumans movie.

A little disappointed that the whole Theta protocol thing was just the Hellicarrier and they moved on pretty quickly from that opening scene, but I like that the tie in wasn't too reliant on the movie and it was nice to see Koenig back. They've done a decent job tying these things together, but it is weird that these guys were just sitting around doing nothing during the events of Ultron.
I completely expected Gonzalez to do something bad, especially given how adamant he was against the Inhumans. I thought it was weird that Coulson let the two members of SHIELD who viewed them as threats go, so of course we get the twist at the end.
Kind of disappointed to see Ward again so soon after the last episode; I thought that phone call from the last episode would have been nice to move away from him for awhile. He was nice to see back originally, but really don't want him hanging around for much longer.

I thought they did a good job with both twists. Not only with Raina but the great flip on Gonzalez's meeting with Jiaying.
That entire sequence was strange to me. I feel like I missed something, because you have to do a lot of mental gymnastics to get to a place where Agent 33 is able to impersonate May on that mission without somebody noticing she seems to be in two places at once.
Other than that though, good episode in my opinion.

Would rather see Forever come back than this. I like it, but all the superhero stuff is getting repetitive. I actually agreed with what Jiyang did. How could Shield think their request was reasonable?

You're all going to be sorry and angry when this show ends with Coulson getting hit on the head from a golf ball and waking up dead in a casket after the events of the first Avengers movie. At Coulson's funeral Cap will turn to Fury and ask: I wonder if the dead dreams?!

The Index seems similar to the registration act that kicks off Civil War. If there's a Season 3, curious how that plays out.

She has her own show now, or is going to, they obviously aren't going to kill her.
So no one noticed that Agent Tight T-Shirt and a prisoner were leaving on a plane -hscratch-?

At any point, did you lobby for the Avengers to find out that Coulson is alive?
Loeb: There’s a plan. It’s just one of those things that when it pops, folks will see it.

While we're on the surprise tip, I can't believe Raina's makeup is all practical
I was certain there some CG in there all along. Great work, makeup crew.

I get the sense that the Theta Protocol stuff about with it being about the helicarrier was an afterthought to tie-in with the movie. It seemed like they intended to go somewhere else with it.
