The Most-est Moments of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Episode 02×08

 Episode Title: The Things We Bury

Most ominous line:

“Discovery requires experimentation and this experiment will take TIME.”

SHIELD-2x08-interrogation

Most interesting allusion to something we suspect but don’t know for sure:

“These men will remain until your temper returns.”

“Not necessary, I assure you. Cool as a cucumber. Smart to play it safe.” (says the Guy whose name we don’t know yet but we can assume he’s Skye’s father with a REALLY BAD temper)

SHIELD-2x08-guns

Most sarcastic sign off:

“Aloha.”

SHIELD-2x08-may

Best convenient coincidence:

“This used to be an SSR base before Fury restored it. It’s full of SSR files.”

SHIELD-2x08-base

Best Coulson-ism:

“If it starts to leak any fluids, drop it, run.”

Best Fitz self-deprecation:

“You are aware that I only have one hand that works good?”

SHIELD-2x08-fitz

Best fangirl moment:

“Peggy Carter, founder, happens to be British, held this in her hand!”

SHIELD-2x08-simmons

Best cameo that we all knew was coming:

SHIELD-2x08-carter

Best quip:

“Sorting paperwork, the life none of us chose.”

SHIELD-2x08-hunter

Best throwaway reference to Captain America: Winter Soldier:

“Undersecretary Pierce took pity on him. Said it wasn’t his choice whose side of the war he was on.”

SHIELD-2x08-jail

Best hint about a character’s past that will probably pop back up in a future episode:

“I wonder if your friends know the acts that YOU are capable of. How you were able to ingratiate yourself to Hydra. Should you fear their judgment were those details to ever surface?”

SHIELD-2x08-bobbi-bakshi

Best surprise (and stomach-turning) confessional moment:

“I WANTED HIM DEAD.”

SHIELD-2x08---well

Best worst plot development:

SHIELD-2x08-shot

Best shocking moment:

“I can help. I’m a doctor.”

SHIELD-2x08-doctor

Best unexpected moment of levity:

“What are we talking about? Tesseract level power??”

“Sure. I don’t know what that is.”

SHIELD-2x08-tesseract

Best rooting for a couple to get back together moment:

“Why do you think I vouched for you with Coulson?”

SHIELD-2x08-bobbi

Best I don’t know what Ward is doing and I don’t know how to feel and GAH what I can’t even:

SHIELD-2x08-ward

Best game changer:

“Match found.”

SHIELD-2x08-match

Best revelation that we kind of saw coming:

“I’ll find him. I’ll doto him what he did to you. I WILL TEAR HIM APART.”

SHIELD-2x08-END
