Spoiler!
We got to meet Melinda's ex husband, they had some nice moments together. Fitz was fairly uncomfortable
While the relationship between Fitz and Simmons is fractured, they had a nice moment where it was like they were friends again.
Sky was suppossedly controlling her powers, except in her dreams. But it turns out that she was turning the effects inwards and ended up creating 37 fractures in her arm. She was given the precurser to Quake's guantlets.
This was a Cal centric episode and he chewed the crap out of the scenery playing manic crazy with a topping of relish. He assembled a super villain team that wasn't really super villiany. They were all self created villains, with a few lame powers.
We saw Karla Guideon who had implanted scalpals into her fingers. She kind of reminded me of Meg from family guy when her super powers were long finger nails.
We did get Angar the screamer who put people into coma's. We got Wendell levi who's super power was that he had no morals and Frank Noche who had overdoesed on super steroids.
At the end of the day Cal was the major threat as he continued to rage about Coulson and drew him to Coulson's home town to gain his revenge, but he was snatched by the eyeless inhuman for drawing to much attention to each other.
We did see Bobbi kick complete a$$ in this episode. And the fight scenes were incredibly well done.
We also had a great line from Cal when he saw his daughter and asked about her powers "What's your thing, I was hoping it was wings"
There were some dark underlying tones in this episode, they dove deeper into the index, which was described as a potentially dangerous offenders list for gifted people, and the episode was based around Sky being added to it.
We also continued the storyline of hunter's disappearance and Mack taking him to meet the "Real" Shield. So clearly there's a bit of a civil war coming.
All in all this was a fun fast episode and we learned a little bit more about May. I really think we need a background episode about her and what the Cavalry is all about.
It was interesting as we haven't seen Ward for a long time, and Raina was nowhere to be seen.

Also very Whedon-esque to start introducing multiple factions. Should have known it wouldn't be Hydra vs. Shield forever. Three active factions running right now, and you know Hydra will come into play again at some point. Fun times!
