Gregg:I love it, I love it.

I think he was such an amazing director.

I was watching the episode going, Man, hes really good at this.

I better get back off that planet.

This guys gonna move into my room.

What can you tell us about Mack and his brother?

Simmons:We both die.

Gregg:Come on, Henry, no, Henry!

Come on, but I bring you back using the TAHITI protocol.

Your personal history with your families, things of that nature.

Gregg:And the toll it takes on your family when you vanish for months at a time.

What you miss, the weddings, the funerals.

Simmons:Youre gone for a long time.

And then you have to come up with some poor excuse as to why.

It causes strained relationships and thats what you see.

Mack goes back because hes wounded, because Bobbi and Hunter left.

I think he wants to repair some other relationships and I dont know if it really happens.

Would you rather see Agent Coulson go back toThe Avengersworld or maybe check out Hells Kitchen?

Gregg:You know, I like whats going on.

I was watching the newDaredevilseason this morning before I came here.

Im watching Charlie Cox and Jon Bernthal tearing it up as The Punisher and Daredevil.

I really like what the writers are doing there.

Especially going into those last couple episodes, thats where our focus is right now.

Its pretty cool whats going on there.

Coulson keeps testing Lincoln.

Will there be a point where Lincoln proves himself, or is it fun to keep testing him?

Gregg:That becomes a big part of the episode thats on this coming week.

Youre right, theres a wariness that Coulson has about Lincoln.

Its funny, hes dealing with a guy who responds to his emotions.

This guy wants to be a SHIELD agent but he questions his motives.

Will we see any more cameos from the Marvel world?

That I can say.

More than that I cannot say.

Will Coulson be recruiting new members to fill in for Bobbi and Huner?

Gregg:Its hard to say.

You know, its always a balancing act.

So its about what is that ideal number?

I think it really depends.

Did meeting Macks family make you see Mack any differently?

Simmons:A little bit, a little bit.

Clark said something earlier.

The unique thing about television is they create your background for you but things you didnt even know about.

Like I didnt even know I had a brother.

It does make me look at things differently.

Gregg:Yeah, you’ve got the option to just get a script one day.

Oh, I was in the circus.

I guess I better get a juggling coach by Wednesday.

I shouldve been juggling all around, dammit.

I wouldve had some clown makeup in my thing.

You have to roll with it and you have to absorb that and keep moving forward and use it.
