ThisAgents of SHIELDreview contains spoilers.

The past few weeks on Marvels Agents of SHIELD there have been two disparate storylines.

While both have been compelling, it kind of seemed like the series split into two entirely different narratives.

She was called The Cavalry by her fellow agents and clearly there was a story behind the nickname.

May almost became the Wolverine of the group, a character defined by a lack of history.

This week, all questions were answered.

Before we get to that, lets talk Skye and her experience with the Inhumans.

It was a moving scene that spotlighted Skyes rejection filled past and gave viewers an emotional catharsis.

It seems that there once was another mother whose daughter became exposed to Terrigen in defiance of Inhuman law.

This Inhuman little girl went on a rampage in Bahrain and ended up killing many people.

Only a brave SHIELD agent was able to bring down the little girl.

Now, May is working with Gonzales SHIELD and she had some disturbing things regarding Coulson revealed to her.

Paralleling Skyes journey this week was Raina who still has not accepted her transformation into a porcupine woman.

As Raina and Reader were explored, the revelations about Jiaying really made the Inhumans plot much more fascinating.

Did I mentionDaredevilis transcendentally awesome?

Just the fact thatAgents of SHIELDnow exists in the same world as Daredevil makes it that much better.

A nice name drop of Alexander Pierce and his list of super human threats during the flashback.

A nice backpedal foreshadowing ofCaptain America: The Winter Soldier.

Marvel is starting to marketAvengers: Age of Ultronwith future episodes ofAgents of SHIELD.

I hope we get to see some kind of connection to the new Avengers film in a future episode.

would probably be a game changer in the spy game, no?
