counterfeitsaint posted:The whole not-Shangri-la plotline had a bunch of inconsistencies. One of the characters specifically has a line saying they've tried and couldn't figure out how to separate the death metal () from the crystals. They also constantly complain about how there's not enough crystals. Naw, Jiaying's plan all along was to flood the world with the contaminated terrigen gas which would activate all the Inhumans and kill all the regular humans, the crystals were deliberately contaminated and she had loads of them. This was all revealed in the big two parter finale of season two where the Inhumans take over the SHIELD2's Iliad aircraft carrier and Mack cuts off Coulson's arm and Cal kills Jiaying to save Daisy. The Inhumans who thought there weren't enough crystals had been duped into thinking that because they were too wishywashy to go along with the 'Kill all humans' plan.

The inhumans had to believe there weren't enough crystals to support the narrative of only some of them being ready to go through the process and having to get special permissions for the existence of the race. It's not inherently stupid; Jiayang had a better control over which inhumans were suited to both lead the cause and which ones needed to be contained than any other organization shown so far. Shield's standards are too high (you have to be a trained agent and inhuman) and the Accords is a catch-all (you got some inhuman blood, welcome to internment). Certainly, she could have gotten further with more interaction with the outside world but at least she knew how to control them.

She also got to say who was and who wasn't ready to have powers. SHIELD is stuck with all kinds of people with all kinds of powers.

There's one more break right? But LMD is gonna mostly wrap up by that point if memory serves.

What an odd set of flashbacks. Also, I just remembered, isn't Radcliffe a cyborg?

Zebulon posted:Seems too blatant. They had fun flagging things not that long ago in the same way, remember? It sounds like everyone forgets the rope-a-dope episode where they set everyone up as a Hive plant on the Inhuman team. And still blindsided us, even though the clues were there. You'll know when they want you to think Mac is an LMD (not that he will be... I think)

I'm hoping Mack isn't an LMD and just got a text about whatever deal made him so sad right before the mid season break. Plus, there was never a point where he was away from others so he could get LMDed. I think it's Fitz.

I think Radcliffe would think Fitz is too important/smart and might be able to sway him to his side. Gemma would be my other guess.

May is going to May the remote and save May, and we'll get a May Buddycop fight two on one vs. AIDA. Or two versus two, Mays versus AIDAs. Edit: Yessss. Radcliffe is busted. Zebulon fucked around with this message at 04:48 on Jan 25, 2017 |
