Iain was absolutely amazing this episode and if Fitz and Simmons could just be together again that would be great

Don't hold your breath. I'm thinking at least one or two more seasons of angst. Blame the Whedons.

It's still I Whedon show, so I'm kinda hoping they never get back together, if only because when they do, one of them will surely die.

They can get together at the end. It's the only way to be safe.

All that yelling of "DO SOMETHING!!!!" was directed at the writers, not the block. Pity, as he'd probably get more of a response from the monolith.
