It wasn't even subtle. The topic of registration factored heavily into parts of the episode.

I was trying to be sarcastic.

It was like they had a big hammer with "Sokovia Accords" written on it and constantly hit us over the head with it the entire episode.

Oh, no, it wasn't the flaming chain... 'twas beauty killed the beast...
When you insult someone by calling them a "pig" or a "dog" you aren't maligning pigs and dogs everywhere.  The same is true of any term used as an insult.

I was like "oh no you didn't" at that moment.

For the big. bad monster, he got taken out rather easy.


Vee

The Alpha Primitives were a nice touch.

And I didn't mind it, tbh.  :)

I thought it was awesome, but I'm still coming down from my Civil War high...

So it's Mack who'll (most likely) die within the next two episodes... pity, I liked him :(
I'm bad and that's good.
I'll never be good and that's not bad.
There's no one I'd rather be than me.

...unless I could be Batman, of course. Everybody wants to be Batman.

Vee

I kind of assumed it'd be Mack who dies seeing as he's the only regular i like.

Maybe it's Ward who dies—again :P

Tenzhi

Why are we assuming someone's going to die?

Because they said so in the trailers. And trailers never lie.


Tenzhi

Ah.  Then here's hoping it's Lincoln.

I might have said that a week ago, before he pulled the Batman gambit with May.  He earned a lot of points with me for that one.

Tenzhi

Cool.  They launched the two characters I liked least into space and blew them up, even if they tried too hard to make it emotional.

Plus: mysterious new Director.  And LMD tease.

I was quite entertained by the game of hot potato they were playing with the cross throughout the episode.

I didn't get the fact that the inhuman showed people their own death. So how could Daisy have seen someone else's?

Plus I still have a bad feeling we haven't seen the last of

Ward / Hive / whatever.

So the first LMD is a sexbot. sounds about right.

I was thinking Jocasta when I saw that.

I actually liked that at the end Lincoln and Hive didn't have some moot fight.  Hive genuinely did care about Inhumans in his own way and he saw no reason to feel any animosity towards Lincoln when it had no purpose.  In fact, Hive seemed to actually admire the fact that Lincoln was willing to sacrifice himself for SHIELD.  And Lincoln seemed to know that Hive was sincere, even if evil, and he understood on some level that Hive was just trying to fulfill his purpose, as Lincoln believed all Inhumans have a purpose.  It felt to me like both of them went out with dignity.
