Davis was out of shot for just long enough at the end there that I was certain he got Snapped. Then I remembered this wasn't the finale.

I couldn't help but notice they said that Daisy and her team had been gone for five years, so five years happened between the end of last season and the beginning of this season. Is that their way of working around the snap?

They were in space for a year, the 5 year thing was how long Daisy has been with SHIELD, which makes sense since each season could be a year, except 5 which takes place over the course of days.

I think May just straight up killed Sarge on her own. It's not like he didn't give them good reason many, many times over.

Yeah, they might do a switcheroo where May is possessed and the pilot is fine but I'm betting more money in that she just killed Sarge on her own volition.

Chloe's purple highlights put her on another level of "holy crap."

Does anyone else follow Ming Ne Wen on Instagram? It made me realize that on AoS, she is putting on a full time scowl-face, even in scenes where May is supposed to be happy. Because in her video posts she's got this incredible joyful energy and I'm just amazing at her facial acting prowess.

I think they've flat out explained it to us. Deke keeps being super excited that his multiverse theory is right, they're in a reality that branched off before the snap.

Yeah uh, Mack was saying it's been 5 years or so since Daisy joined SHIELD. The repeatedly said this season that Daisy's team had only been searching for Fitz for one year.

Sarge has shown he is way too quick to sacrifice people, completely amoral outside of "the mission" and its goals. Plus he straight up directly responsible for the deaths of a bunch of SHIELD agents.

She's a weird goofy nerd that's ended up in a whole career of very straight-faced roles, so the best and most genuine you see her is when she's making a silly pose next to her embarrassed kids.

I'm trying to work out at what point this season they found out their run was being extended, and what they might have changed in order to accommodate a longer production cycle.

My guess is that this Snowbunny subplot was added in at the last moment since a) it comes from nowhere, hilariously so and b) it provides the show with an opportunity for characters/actors they like to hang around for longer.

I suspect the ongoing runner with the Chronocoms was added too, since that mostly seems to be about setting up next season.

It probably didn't have much of an effect, season 7 was approved late November and filming ended early December.

I still think it jumped to May. The "sleeping on the couch" routine seems out of character for a shrike or their queen, and totally in character for someone drained by a former possession.

Him waking up and having no memory of anything after splitting up with Jocko will be what leads them on the investigation
