Open at Havenworth penitentiary on our potentially psychic guy, probably not Mentallo, from last time. Super soldiers bust in and go for extraction, all business and punching. Ouch, wasn’t good to have pulled lunch duty that day as a prison guard.

Phil talks about the 90s and has a grunge look in his eyes and a whiff Seattle. Skye tries to justify why she is kind of a crap hacker. May is in on their secret investigation. May kicks the crap out of Handsomeface and May tells him to pump the breaks on the sexual tension.

Centipede is back, nothing like the Big Lots of Hydra. Turns out this ‘walking nut job’ nor his name rings a bell.

Finally NOT Luke Cage from the first episode returns and he can’t quite beat Cap’s old high school football record. Mr. Peterson is going to ‘suit up’! Hopefully this means the beginning of more superhero type action.

Commercial Break

May is not too cool with bringing Mr. Peterson onboard, May has some pains with that having been thrown into a brick wall and all. Phil let’s him know that everyone gets a second chance. Handsomeface isn’t happy with Mike coming onboard either, Handsomeface puts his foot into his mouth.

Mike Peterson for Agent S.H.I.E.L.D. of the year, I dig this dude. Seems like a solid hero’s journeyman.

Oh god… S.H.I.E.L.D. is going to… CLEVELAND?! Dafuq. Mike Peterson confronts Phil about not getting in on the Cleveland action, I wonder if he wanted to join the Cleveland Browns?

The companions are giving his the once over, Peterson still has his centipede attached to his arm and he didn’t explode because of their gun. Awkward three way sexual nerd tension.

Phil and Handsomeface are riding dirty in Lola, Y U NO HOVER?!?!

Phil talks about dating a chello player, he really is a pimp, and oh man. It’s Men In Black level ‘I have to stay away from her’, don’t be that guy Phil.

May is really good at using her Jean Claude Van Damme face, Skye actually finally did something somewhat hacker-ish and May seems a tiny bit impressed. Turns out Peterson knows who the mystery lady in the sundress is, of course we saw her when she dicked over Scorch.

Turns out Phil and his squad are quite a pain in HYDRA AIM Centipede’s plans. Man, this guys are getting some insane exoskeletons out of this super solider project.

Commercial Break

Poe is going to perhaps going to be a leader of men, of Centipede men. Phil does not believe in psychics.  Handsomeface lays it on thick as a lottery commissioner or some such crap. Whoa, so the business card was a phone tracking  super cool device.

Oh man, these guys are in Oakland. Yeah, well at least Oakland is pretty nice these days.

Skye goes to see Peterson in his rubber honeycomb room and she manages to actually be kind of a cool person for a change. I wonder is this is part of Whedon’s masterplan to build up a ‘heart of the team’ character then POW! RIGHT IN THE KISSER!

Handsomeface is a bit jealous of Peter having powers but the companions seem to have taken a shine to their new toy. They are the proud papas that they kept him from exploding.

You’re never too late to be in Area 6!

Oh man it was a trap!

May and Handsomeface go heroes for hire on the Centipede goons but these are some tough customers. Phil just got pwn3d like a low level mage. Peterson took some re-bar to the mid-section and Phil looks like he had an Avengers flashback.

Looks like the creepy bad guy wants his hands on Peterson more than Gemma.

Commercial Break

Man, they saw the eye technology before. Get it.

Centipede should just call themselves AIM and let everyone known they are run by a giant baby head. Poe isn’t big on sharing information and not cool with talking about MODOK’s big giant head.

Handsome face is having a brewski and offers to pour May a scotch and who does it seem like is more into work and relationship more. Dear readers, don’t date your co-workers. Skye confronts May and May almost spills the beans. She sends Skye into a cry-go-home-gasm and Phil looks not quite frowny about it. It’s cool Phil, pimps don’t cry.

Peterson limps in and seems like he and Phil are getting to be a bit better buddies. Phil knows Peterson has not seen his son since episode 1 and Peterson reveals that his kid probably thinks he is a Frankenstein. Phil really is a standup LMD and heart even with getting some Asgardian technology shoved through it.

Turns out Centipede got to Peterson’s son first. The old, ‘we have your loved ones’ bad guy trope.

Commercial Break

They want to trade Peterson for his son, looks like they are getting pretty good at working as a team and making plans. Phil promises they will get his son back and I hope he can make good on that.

Centipede really seems to dig the LA area, must help for filming. So they gave him the swab for tracking right out in the middle of the open. DAAAAAAAMMMMMMN Phil is one stone cold mofo. Wait what?! Peterson betrayed Phil! Peterson went straight for the throat, Phil doesn’t seem to have any fucks to give about being setup.

Well, unless robots can be drugged i’m not so sure that Phil is an LMD. Peterson don’t you die on us! Holy crap crackers the trucks were rigged to explode. Everything was rigged to explode. Blown. Up. Everything.

Then escape in a helicopter. Handsomeface might be down for the count or at least have a shoulder wound.

Things are totally going to end on explosions and betrayal. You monsters.

Stinger

Meanwhile back on the helicopter. Phil gives them the speech he gave to Loki, turns out that Centipede wants to know what happened to Phil while in Haiti.

 

For next year.
