Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

May is the one who trained that strike team (and we saw her in the previous episode handily schooling them), plus, they were trying not to hurt her, which meant they weren't doing even as much as in their training sessions

I am guessing you have forgotten May's nickname of the Cavalry.

It was established that she is pretty much the best of the best, basically a one woman army.

On the show Bobby is the only one who has come close to being in May's league. I don't know how May and Widow match up, would like to find out, maybe some day Marvel will explore that. That is if May has a future, it's not looking good for her at the moment.

Jeffrey Mace, aka "Patriot". Golden Age costumed crime fighter, no super powers but highly trained. There's some sort of relation to the comics, he appears to be a widely respected former super hero in the MCU which is how he got into the position he's in, although the powers are new (as is the Inhuman bit).

Vaguely recognize the name, or maybe it's simply a 'common' super name

I wouldn't know because I quit the show by season 1 but after seeing the changes and addition to the show, it's for the better. And not to sound mean but her nickname being 'the Calvary' is kind of lame, I mean couldn't they gone the Sharon Carter route and gave a her an agent # or a codename. And as for May and Black Widow duel idea, God I hope not because as much as the show hypes May's skills, she's no Black Widow

It's just a nickname, not any kind of official SHIELD thing. Like every member of SHIELD (with a few exceptions) she has the title of Agent. The Cavalry thing is something that was unfortunately earned on a mission gone wrong, in her past before the show.

It is a nickname she hates and no one (if they're smart) says it to her face, its a reputation thing that is only whispered. It's not her only nickname either but any others tend to go with her seemingly cold personality.

I'm not going to go into the debate (which I have seen is a fairly big debate) about her and Widow but it would be a really good fight, that may not have an outcome.

Was there a holiday or something? Just wondering why it didn't air this week

The VP debate

Had a feeling it was for some useless crap that no-one cares about, like Superbowl

Just a bump for this week's episode.

Ok, so they are getting messy with Robbie's backstory. I really have no idea what they are doing with him.

Sadly they didn't do what I hoped they would do with Coulson, by having him have some knowledge of something similar that could be a possible past GR. I knew it was a galactic long shot but still I was hoping.

Was thinking the same thing, missed opportunity for this:
Coulson: "Wow! Ghost Rider? Haven't heard that name in a very long time! Tell me, does he still ride that cool motorcycle with the wheels of fire?"

What are they getting messy about Robbie's backst... oh, you mean how they basically did a "Ghost Rider" movie by combining his backstory with the real Ghost Rider backstory? How, instead of him being possessed by his uncles ghost, they have his uncle still alive and Robbie simply cursed to clear his 'slate'?

Nothing so blatant as that, more along the lines of knowing rumors and possibly old SHIELD investigations that were never concluded.

I'm not sure where they are going with the backstory, his "I sold my soul" story thing is similar to Blaze's but not the same. Whether Robbie actually did sell his soul is still to be determined. And the Eli thing, well they have made sure to clean up that whole, a serial killer is the hero PR issue thing.

The clean the slate thing seems to be something Robbie thought up to give him hope that one day he will free.

Seems like they are 'one-upping' the movie: instead of just combining the stories of Blaze and Ketch, they are now adding Robbie's story to the terrible mix (if he adds that chain to his look, that's going too far!!)

As a Ghost Rider fan I have voiced my disappointment in AoS's producers for their choices in how they portrayed him in the show.

But in the latest episode they slightly redeemed themselves with that basement scene. It was just filled with Easter egg geek out stuff and I will admit of massive geeking out at each item I saw. Even the dialog had stuff in it. Rewind and pause are wonderful things.

All signs point to Johnny Blaze having the Darkhold and trying to hide it... Now we just need to know if there's a previous or another current Ghost Rider out there. I think that would be a good exit point for the Reyes Ghost Rider, for him to meet up with the older Ghost Rider to get answers only another Ghost Rider would know.

Um the darkhold is with the ghost lady and the uncle,

Why do I have "bobble head" on my tounge when I see this ghost rider ?

Ohh, I can just imagine the whole scene of the two of them coming skull to skull and the many reactions of the team to the sight. The fight would be epic (as much as TV can handle that is).

Ugh, now it's going to be a huge let down when it doesn't happen .

I was watching this for the first time, and my wife walked right in front of the screen.. I was like NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO i think there is an easter egg I just missed!!! Her response, good thing you have the ability to rewind.

Smart wife, good thing u married her
