Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. GIF and a Graf: Coulson Knows What’s Up

Picking just one moment to highlight from last night’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. is tough. Maybe it was Cal (Kyle MacLachlan) talking about how the Internet ruined everything? Or perhaps Fitz (Iain De Caestecker) lunging at the recently-reunited-with-S.H.I.E.L.D.-Hydra-operative Ward (Brett Dalton)? Or when Skye (Chloe Bennet) actually saw Ward? Those were all fine, but the real gem was the episode’s final salvo, in which Agent Coulson (Clark Gregg) was confronted by agents Mack (Henry Simmons) and Bobbi (Adrianne Palicki). He’s been a little off-message for a while now, and everyone—including May (Ming-Na Wen) and Simmons (Elizabeth Henstridge)—have been wondering whose side he’s on. Meanwhile, Robert Gonzales (Edward James Olmos) has been leading another faction of S.H.I.E.L.D. So when Coulson raised his hands and said, “Take me to your leader,” to Gonzales’ agents Mack and Bobbi, it was a peace offering—and perhaps a reminder that not too long ago Nick Fury put him in charge. It was also funny on many levels in a way only Marvel universe properties can seem to get away with. Kudos, Coulson.
