Trivia
The Wall of Valor in the Science and Technology academy uses different designs of the S.H.I.E.L.D. logo which have been featured in the comics over the years, except for the Strategic Scientific Reserve (SSR) logo which was designed as part of Marvel movie continuity.

Goofs
Agent Lumley ambushes May in Mexico City by attacking her from a fire escape platform. Later, he unsuccessfully tries to run away using the same platform. There are no fire escape platforms outside buildings in Mexico, as they have never been part of the Building Code there.

Quotes
Phil Coulson: That's the thing about Skye. What I told her shattered her world. Her lifelong search led to stories of murder, and now it's too difficult to continue. Her search is over. Her story ends here. But you know what she said?
Melinda May: Tell me.
Phil Coulson: She said no-her story started here. Her whole life, she thought she wasn't wanted, that she didn't belong, that every family that took her in didn't want her to stay, didn't care. But all that time, it was S.H.I.E.L.D. protecting her, looking after her. That's what she took away from the story-not the family she'll never have, but the one she's always had. Here I am, telling her something that could destroy her faith in humanity, and somehow she manages to repair a little piece of mine. The world is full of evil and lies and pain and death, and you can't hide from it-you can only face it. The question is, when you do, how do you respond? Who do you become?

Rewatch thoughts

I actually forgot how good this episode is, it's mostly filler, the A plot that is, B plot is very important, but even if the plot is filler-ish, there is so much more to this episode, it expans he world, and flehes out my two favourite characters, Fitz and Simmons. I noticed the dialouge in this episode was great, particularly the speach Fitzsimmons give was the right level of corny speach without seeming fake, the banter between the team was on point, the twists and turns well excuted and the story regarding Skye was heartbreaking, this episode really had it all!
