History Recap / AgentsOfSHIELDS3E17TheTeam

-->'''Fitz:''' Forget space. I've already got something magnificent right here. ''[Simmons leans in for a kiss, and Fitz turns away at the last second to look at the wall]'' This picture of space. This is my prized possession.\\
''[Simmons laughs and kisses him]''

!!Tropes in this episode:
* BaitAndSwitch: On the tail end of a lovely conversation between Fitz and Simmons that began with the grandeur of space and ended with the two of them deciding to move forward as a couple, Fitz gives us this gem:

'''Simmons:''' ''[laughs and kisses him]''

** Coulson says he [[Film/TheAvengers2012 has met]] [[{{Film/Thor}} gods]]. He also says that "Gods bleed", echoing a similar line from Ivan Vanko, the BigBad of ''Film/IronMan2'':

* HaveIMentionedIAmGay: [[AvertedTrope Averted]] with Joey, finally. After his sexuality had previously solely been established through dialogue we get to see him on a date with another guy at the beginning of the episode... which he gets called away from to go back to the Secret Warriors. Poor guy.

** Apparently, no one is monitoring the four quarantined Inhumans, or guarding the Kree artifact or Terrigen crystals for that matter, which leads to Daisy easily hacking her way out of containment and stealing everything without so much as a struggle. Possible HandWave as she stated to Lincoln she wrote a lot of the security protocols and thus would be able get around them with ease and not tip off anybody who was monitoring them until way too late.
* IKnowYoureInThereSomewhereFight: Lincoln attempts this on Daisy by calling on her devotion to S.H.I.E.L.D. but it doesn't work.

* ProphecyTwist: When Malick had the vision of his death, he thought it was from Hive's parasites consuming him. Instead, it's from a Hive controlled Daisy crushing him.

'''Simmons:''' Okay. ''(kisses him)''

* WholePlotReference: Hive's mind control powers naturally lead to quite a vibe of ''Film/TheThing1982''.

* YouHaveToBelieveMe: Lincoln protests with exactly these words once Coulson identifies him as being turned by Hive. Of course, no one believes him. Pity that he was telling the truth...

** Continuing the trend from last episode, nobody in S.H.I.E.L.D. has the presence of mind to guard Malick in his interrogation room during a conveniently-timed blackout. Especially jarring in this case, as Malick outright warns Coulson that his Inhuman team could be compromised just as his bodyguard Giyera was, but doesn't seem to realize that Hive will pull a YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness and prepare accordingly. Then again, given his FaceDeathWithDignity moment, he may have just accepted his fate.

* RevealingCoverup: [=FitzSimmons=] notice that Malick's cell is open, just in time to see him dead and a grenade destroy the body. Coulson quickly notes that whoever left it did so as to disguise how he died.

* WhamEpisode: Daisy is infected by Hive, kills Malick, and steals both S.H.I.E.L.D.'s supply of terrigen and the Kree artifact while bringing down the entire hangar on the way out.

* IKnowYoureInThereSomewhereFight: Lincoln attempts this on Daisy by calling on her devotion to S.H.I.E.I.L.D. but it doesn't work.

* IKnowYoureInThereSomewhereFight: Lincoln attempts this on Daisy, but it doesn't work.
* InternalReveal: While "It" was revealed to be Hive in press releases, this is the first episode where Hive gets properly named.

** Elena complains that Mack's nickname of "Yo-Yo" for her stuck with the team. It's her actual name in the comics.

* ProphecyTwist: When Malick had the vision of his death, he thought it was from Hive's parasites consuming him. Instead, it's from Daisy crushing him.

* StormingTheCastle: The Secret Warriors break into HYDRA's ElaborateUndergroundBase in order to rescue the rest of the team.

:: Simmons then gives him a ShutUpKiss.

** Simmons then gives him a ShutUpKiss.

* DarkestHour: The Secret Warriors are fractured, Daisy is under Hive's control and destroys the SHIELD base and Hive is taking over all of Gideon's old belongings.

* HeelFaceDoorSlam: Malick's "last rodeo" with SHIELD doesn't last long, as Hive uses Daisy to dispose of him in order to preserve Hive's secrets.

** Apparently, no one is monitoring the four quarantined Inhumans, or guarding the Kree artifact or Terrigen crystals for that matter, which leads to Daisy easily hacking her way out of containment and stealing everything without so much as a struggle.

* MomentKiller: Joey is interruptted by the summons in a middle of a date.

-->'''Hive''': Not quite. Now we have one on the inside.

** Coulson says he [[Film/TheAvengers2012 has met]] [[Film/Thor gods]]. He also says that "Gods bleed", echoing a similar line from Ivan Vanko, the BigBad of ''Film/IronMan2'':

* BrainwashedAndCrazy: When Daisy reveals herself as the one infected by Hive, she starts ranting about how he's going to create a better world.

** Apparently, no one is monitoring the four quarantined Inhumans, or guarding the Kree artifact or Terrigen crystals for that matter, which leads to Daisy easily hacking her way out of containment and stealing everything without so much as a struggle.

** May's idea of pumping the room in which the Inhumans have barricades themselves with sleeping gas is posponed by Coulson.
** Likewise, no one is monitoring the four quarantined Inhumans, or guarding the Kree artifact or Terrigen crystals for that matter, which leads to Daisy easily hacking her way out of containment and stealing everything without so much as a struggle.
** When Daisy was asking Lincoln to leave the base together, he should have briefly played along to get released from his containment room and then zap her from behind.

** When Skye was asking Lincoln to leave the base together, he should have briefly played along to get released from his containment room and then zap her from behind.

* YouHaveOutLivedYourUsefulness: Malick is killed as a liability once he's captured by S.H.I.E.L.D., his vast material wealth being of little concern to Hive. The near-billion dollars they have immediate access to is more than enough.

* DarkReprise : The soundtrack when HQ starts shaking sounds like the theme playing when Daisy went through Terrigenesis, but darker.
