Favorite Mack scene so far in the show. The Framework arc is over but the effects still linger and this is why these writers get all my praise. Usually with long running shows like this the details get forgotten or there are weird inconsistent things in later seasons but Mack still being upset over losing hope is a thread that I am glad is not just forgotten after moving past the framework. As a father that loss won't just go away even if it was not "real." Fitz is here but how is the question since he didn't come along with the team.... Some answers are coming soon.

I feel Deke is the type of person who first and foremost can be trusted to do what is best for Deke. That's not to say that he doesn't care about what's best for others - if he can safely help the wider population he will, but knows the limits of what he can and can't influence, and conducts his affairs accordingly. In this case, that means tempering the Kree's inevitable response to what Daisy is attempting to do - and the safest and most expedient way to do that is to turn her over to Kasius. As for Phil's reaction to that, I feel it does make a degree of sense, even though it's probably not an advisable way to play things. The whole team is coming at this from the same viewpoint - the way the Lighthouse works is wrong, so we're going to 'fix' it, no matter the repercussions. That's essentially exactly what they did in the Framework - disrupting the status quo without thought of consequences. They've also had no time since coming out of the Framework to reflect and come to terms with what happened there, so are still dealing with that. Instead, they were almost immediately transported to the future and then told that they were there to 'save' humanity - and they must think why bring them to the future if not to disrupt the status quo? All in all, I think that that confluence of events, combined with them clearly not wanting to be there and just get home, is why they are acting the way they are. It's good that you recognise that Gunner doesn't know Mack's history - that's surprisingly uncommon amongst the reactors I've watched, with a good number not realising that from Gunner's POV it's inconceivable that Mack doesn't know how the Lighthouse works and what the 'package' he's getting would be. I said at the end of last season that I felt that Mack was attempting to put a brave face on his Framework experience after leaving by attempting to convince himself that the Framework wasn't real, possibly because he can't reconcile the idea of the Framework with his faith, but he's realising now it's not that simple - his experiences and feelings within the Framework were real, it's having (and has already had) real life consequences, which for all intents and purposes makes it no less real than 'reality'. Fitz is here! How? We'll have to wait and see.

HA! With the Fitz reveal at the end and your face, I remember the collective "YES!!" from all us fans when that happened. When you watch other reactions, you'll see it also. 😁 I, unfortunately, got spoiled on it though 'cause of the thumbnail of an overexcited reactor that had their reaction up quicker than I could watch the episode. It showed up in my Recommended feed on the right side of YT. I told them that they spoiled it for me and they felt bad and changed their thumbnail, but for me, the whole episode, I was just with my chin in my palm waiting for him and couldn't really enjoy the episode 'cause I was expecting him the whole time. It messed up the whole episode 'cause he didn't show up until the very end.

Movies with KL

Oh no! I had a similar thing happen a few years ago with a viewer of mine, who I accidentally spoiled, and ever since then I've tried to be careful about who I show in my thumbnails.
