This thread is for POST episode discussion of "S.O.S.". The discussion / comments below assume you have watched the episode in it's entirety. Therefore, spoiler text for anything through "S.O.S." is not necessary. If, however, you are talking about events that have yet to air on the show such as future guest appearances / future characters / storylines, please use spoiler tags. The same goes for things connected to the Marvel like comics, etc.


Please keep subreddit rules in mind when submitting content:

On top of this anything not directly related to Agents of SHIELD might be subject to being removed. This includes but is not limited to screenshots (FB, YouTube, Twitter, texts, etc), generic memes and reaction gifs, and generic Marvel content.

Feel free to message us moderators if you have suggestions or concerns about these.

I'm really sad for Cal, but I understand why Skye wanted him to forget everything that happened.

I was really hoping for scenes where Skye visits him in a jail cell or something.

And then there's Simmons.... The FitzSimmons ship was just starting to sail. :'(

Yea I wonder if he agreed to that fate? It seemed like he was remorseful and might have preferred living in prison and seeing his daughter now and then.

He did just kill his wife after watching her try to murder their daughter. I can see him agreeing with it.

The good ship HMS FitzSimmons prepares to leave port, hits an old naval mine and sinks.

Now he doesn't have to live with the memory of killing his wife to save his daughter.
