History Recap / AgentsOfSHIELDS5E21TheForceOfGravity

* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Carla Talbot thought reciting the "comply" words for the Faustus Method would somehow help her husband.

Daisy is now in the hands of Kasius' father.

* AstralProjection: Taryan has the Remorath attach a device to Daisy's forehead which leaves her body unconscious while projecting her mind to the Confederacy's meeting room, partly to protect himself from being quaked to pieces, and partly because in this state she will still get hungry and tired but be unable to eat or sleep, and will eventually break and agree to serve him in order to make the torture end. Daisy uses her powers to break the device.

* IronicEcho: Coulson tells May "I thought that would shut you up" after kissing her, just as she said to him after confessing her feelings for him.

* YearInsideHourOutside: Taryan says the astral projection device will affect how Daisy perceives time. She breaks it before it affects her.

* RecycledSet: [[LampshadeHanging Noted]] when Coulson gripes that all the corridors on the ship look alike.

** Talbolt lifting and dropping the S.H.I.E.L.D. vehicles is similar to Magneto in the [[Film/XMen1 first X-Men movie]]. That it takes place outside a house on cul-de-sac makes it similar to XMenTheLastStand.

* BookEnds: Jemma [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] this about their use of the Centipede Serum, which had been from their very first mission.

* CharacterDeath: Creel is absorbed by Talbot, who abused the former's powers in order to gain more Gravitonium. Prior to that, Talbot also kills Agent Kim.

* LoopholeAbuse: Fitz points out that Future!Yo-Yo said that ''[[ExactWords trying]]'' to save Coulson is what dooms the world... so what happens if they actually succeed? Subverted, when it turns out they literally have to choose between saving Coulson or destroying Graviton, because they only have one dose of the necessary Centipede Serum.

* RecycledSet: [[LampshadeHanging Noted]] when Coulson gripes all the corridors on the ship look alike.

** Daisy calls Coulson [[{{MASH}} "Hot Lips"]] and later sing-songs [[{{Poltergeist}} "They're here"]] before the Remorath attack.
** Talbolt lifting and dropping the SHIELD vehicles is similar to Magneto in the [[Film/XMen1 first X-Men movie]]. That is takes place outside a house on cul-de-sac makes it similar to XMenTheLastStand.
* ShutUpHannibal: Taryan is gloating about how Daisy's mind will be trapped in its projected state until he breaks her. She responds by telling him how his sons are going to die, then quakes the device trapping her mind, breaking free.

* RunningGag: Once again, Agent Davis explains offscreen how he survived Aida's attack, with no details for the audience. Deke declares it to be the most incredible story he's ever heard.

* LoopholeAbuse: Fitz points out that Future!Yo-Yo said that ''[[ExactWords trying]]'' to save Coulson is what dooms the world... so what happens if they actually succeed? [[spoiler: Subverted, when it turns out they literally have to choose between saving Coulson or destroying Graviton, because they only have one dose of the necessary Centipede Serum.]]

* LoopholeAbuse: Fitz points out that Future!Yo-Yo said that ''[[ExactWords trying]]'' to save Coulson is what dooms the world... so what happens if they actually succeed?

* {{Bookends}}: Jemma [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] this about their use of the Centipede Serum, which had been from their very first mission.

* CliffhangerCopout: The previous episode implied Daisy had already been sent off to Taryan. This episode reveals she's just trapped in a mental world and the Remorath are still dragging her to the teleporter, allowing her to break free.
* ClosestThingWeGot: May drags Deke along to the bridge because he's the only person on the ship that can read the Remorath language, even though by his own admission he can only count to five, including zero. It turns out zero is a pretty helpful thing to know when retargeting missiles.

* ExactWords: May tells Qovas she doesn't need a gun to kill him. Instead, she has his ship's missiles do the job for her.

* LoopholeAbuse: Fitz points out that future Yo-Yo said that "[[ExactWords trying to save Coulson]]" is what dooms the world, so what happens if they succeed?
* LotusEaterMachine: Taryan has the Remorath attach a device to Daisy which leaves her body unconscious while connecting her mind to his, the idea being that she'll eventually break from being denied any sort of sensation. Daisy manages to use her powers to break the device.
* ProudWarriorRaceGuy: The Remorath view guns as a coward's weapon, since they don't require you to get up close to your opponent. Qovas specifically orders his men to use guns after Coulson and May escape because they don't deserve an honorable death.
* RunningGag: Once again, Agent Davis explains offscreen how he survived Aida's attack, with no details for the audience (aside from Deke declaring it the most incredible thing he's ever heard).
* SadisticChoice: There's only a single dose of the Centipede Serum left. It can either be infused with Jiaying's blood and used to save Coulson, or infused with Odium and used to stop Talbot, but not both, which is the decision that decides the fate of the world.
* ShutUpHannibal: Taryan is gloating about how Daisy will be trapped in the virtual world until he breaks her. She responds by telling him how his sons are going to die, then quakes the device trapping her mind, breaking free.
