We left Skye and Coulson planning to create a team comprised of super-powered individuals. It doesn’t always mean killing them, but sometimes those desires are there… In our minds, her mom wasn’t a villain so much she was an antagonist, but if you look at why she feels the way she does, Jiaying really earned that position. We had her going from a slightly sulky hacker season one to training to become an agent to becoming our first full-fledged superhero and so as we grow up, we separate from our parents. And at the same time, we had Skye growing up. In many ways, the whole metaphor at the heart of the show is family - you’ve got Coulson and May and then a bunch of younger people, and it allows us to play out different dynamics literally, this season, we had Skye’s biological parents versus her surrogate parents. What are the emotional ramifications of Skye gaining her mother only to lose her again, due to Jiaying’s own betrayal?

This year, she found them, and it’s safe to say they weren’t what she might’ve hoped for. Skye’s search for her parents has been part of the show since its inception. This is something that came up in the room, we talked about what it meant… The idea of getting Fitz and Simmons - who had been one person - to become two whole people, come back together, agree to go on a date, and then have this happen, felt beautifully poetic and promises some really intriguing stories next season, which is really what it’s all about. We prefer to leave you with something to talk about, to walk away with. It’s easy to kill a character for shock value or whatever, and we did have a number of deaths this season, but I don’t think they were so much for shock value as the hopefully understandable logic of the characters and the stories. How did you arrive at the decision to leave the audience with such an evil cliffhanger, especially since Simmons is the character who has been the most mistrustful of alien artifacts this season?īell: I don’t know if it’s evil… Who knows, maybe that thing took her to Disneyland and she’s riding on the “Cars” ride, having the time of her life! When we first started talking about the Monolith, we knew that it needed to present a threat and we needed to demonstrate some of that threat and the promise of more story, because - this is gonna shock you - we want more people to watch next year, because we like when people watch our show. Let’s begin with the most pressing concern after the finale - the status of Simmons. Meanwhile, as Bobbi (Adrianne Palicki) questioned her future with the team after her torturous encounter with Ward ( Brett Dalton) and her near-death experience while attempting to protect ex-husband Hunter (Nick Blood), her teammate Mack (Henry Simmons) finally embraced his status as a SHIELD agent after helping save Coulson’s life during the battle with the Inhumans (even if saving his life involved cutting his hand off). Skye ( Chloe Bennet) was forced to lose her parents for a second time - after Inhuman leader Jiaying’s (Dichen Lachman) fanaticism threatened the lives of every remaining SHIELD agent, including Skye herself - but seemingly found new purpose in a project with Coulson ( Clark Gregg) to assemble a group of super-powered individuals an initiative that may be familiar to Marvel fans, with the codename Caterpillars. Can be used a total of five times.Spoiler warning: Do not read on unless you’ve season the “ Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD” season two finale, titled “SOS.”ĪBC and Marvel’s “SHIELD” closed out its sophomore season with a tantalizing easter egg, an emotional wallop and a shocking cliffhanger, with plenty of dangling threads left to be tied up when the show returns for its recently announced season three. The attack is identical to Captain America's HK version of the move and can go through projectiles, but the move itself takes a while to start. Agent jumps into the screen and performs a Charging Star forward. Agent does have his own unique victory quotes different from the Captain, displaying his more violent nature.Īlong with Shadow and Mephisto, his name is never said by the announcer in Marvel Super Heroes vs. There are no noticeable differences in the two characters' play styles, although U.S. Agent shares all of Captain America's moves and Hyper Combos.

His ending is the same generic one used by all other secret characters: he stands in front of a flashing blue background, his back turned to the screen while the text "Congratulations! You've defeated the game with a secret character!" appears underneath him.
