So I went into this episode having been spoiled on the whole "Framework" thing. I spent the episode just waiting for the 'big reveal', really.
I was surprised by the reveal that FitzSimmons were LMDs. Well, Fitz, anyway.
Loved Melinda saving the day (this new 'softer' version of May is cool but a bit disturbing, in a way?).
Quake not being an LMD made sense. Again, how would they replicate her powers? They can't, so the first time she was called upon to use them it would be a dead giveaway.
Aida killing Radcliffe has been coming for a while, IMO. Her putting the Russian guy's head in a jar? That one I did not see coming.
Then the Framework sequences--
-Daisy and Ward (I thought we'd actually see Brett, not just a picture?)
-Coulson teaching (um, wouldn't his biggest regret be being killed by Loki? But I guess getting into SHIELD in the first place counts?)
-Mack playing happy families
-Fitz is rich and powerful (but who is the woman whose hand he was taking because---)
-Jemma is apparently dead in this universe?! So her biggest regret is being born!? Wait, what?
--Melinda at the Triskelion. That one I actually was not spoiled on and I thought it fitting that she was back at SHIELD headquarters. Then we pulled back enough to see the Hydra symbol and I was going "what?" Why would Melinda May be working for Hydra? Does not compute.
But this appears to be the end of the LMD storyline (it was dragging a lot so that's kind of good).
