Episode Summary & Review
Summary
In the aftermath of the events chronicled in the feature film THOR: THE DARK WORLD, Coulson and The Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. pick up the pieces — one of which threatens to destroy a member of the team.
Our Take
This one leans hard on its Thor 2 tie-in, and the Asgardian relic plot is pretty forgettable stuff. The saving grace is Ward, who finally gets some backstory and a reason to be more than the bland muscle guy. Decent character hour, thin on everything else, but the team stuff keeps it watchable.
