"Repairs" dials things back a bit for a more self-contained supernatural mystery, and while it doesn't soar, it adds some welcome creep factor and character dynamics.
Plot: 6.5/10
The story revolves around a woman believed to be causing accidents through telekinesis-only, surprise, it's not quite what it seems. It's a spooky premise that plays out like a ghost story with a S. H. I. E. L. D. twist.
Characters: 7.5/10
This episode gives May some much-needed spotlight, fleshing out her stoic demeanor and teasing her haunted past. Skye's continued curiosity clashes well with May's guarded nature. The FitzSimmons prank subplot is a fun little detour that works better than expected.
Writing: 6.5/10
The dialogue is solid, but the mystery's resolution feels a bit rushed. Still, the moral ambiguity-especially around May's final choice-adds some depth.
Visuals and Effects: 7/10
The atmosphere leans into eerie, which is refreshing. The visual effects of the teleporter stuck between dimensions are pretty slick for network TV.
Pacing: 7/10
A little slow in the middle, but picks up in the final act with some cool tension and payoff.
Overall: 7/10
"Repairs" is a quieter episode with horror vibes and character focus. It doesn't break new ground, but it adds flavor to the team dynamic and lets May take center stage. Solid mid-season stuff.
