![]() ![]() At this point, I am thinking way too much about eyeballs and aneurisms and am completely squicked out.Īmador is grateful to Coulson for freeing her – although she now is sporting an eye-patch that looks like a metal mini-colander and CAN THE CREEPY EYE STUFF BE OVER ALREADY, PLEASE. Amador wasn’t the only one with a kill switch. Ugh, ugh, ugh.Ĭoulson quickly tracks the dude that was feeding Amador messages when he flashes his badge, though, the dude’s eye blooms red and he keels over, dead. Concurrently, Ward tells Fitz-Simmons to cut the kill switch, so they snip Amador’s eye and fling it into a containment unit. Ward decides to try a little bromance on the guard, but that fails, so Ward just coldcocks him instead.įinally, Ward makes it to a room full of chalkboards and weird formulas – when he sees it, his feed flashes “Mission Accomplished.” Then the security breach is noticed and Ward has to flee outside, where Skye is waiting. ![]() His feed orders him to seduce the guy, in order to gain further access. I am pretty sure they’d start arguing and like, drop my poor eyeball on the floor or something.Īfter Fitz-Simmons manage to pop Amador’s eye out, it’s just kind of held there while Skye and Ward are on their tracking mission – the kill switch thing, remember? While Skye monitors from the car, Ward goes through security and makes it to a taciturn guard. Side note: Fitz-Simmons are fun and smart and all, but I would NOT trust those two to operate on my eyeballs. Fitz-Simmons are conducting this operation. Of course, this means that if the villains find out what is happening, they’ll kill Amador immediately, which brings us to the operation where Amador has to anesthetize her own eyeball. The agents come up with a plan: Amador’s eye feed is now re-routed to a pair of glasses that Agent Ward will wear. Safely back on the bus, Amador explains the whole eyeball-implant thing to Coulson. She tracks Amador down and attempts to bring her in herself, but is almost killed Coulson rescues May in the nick of time. The agents are then able to hack into Amador’s eye-feed and add another layer of Big Brother to the proceedings, but Agent May is done with surveillance. In a weirdly anticlimactic scene, Amador rams the van that Skye and Fitz-Simmons are doing surveillance in. The agents start tracking her, but Amador is already onto them. We get to see Amador trading the diamonds-transported in fake golf balls that dissolve in water – for a key card. He insists that the SHIELD gang can handle it on their own. When Coulson knew Amador, she was brilliant and brave, but not so much a team player- hmmm, echoes of Skye much? Now, Amador runs around doing nefarious missions, including the aforementioned heist.Īgent May wants to call Amador in, since she’s obviously super dangerous, (key point: to get the diamonds, she had to saw off a man’s hand, so you know this girl is not playing) but for Coulson, it’s personal. Coulson thought he lost the headstrong agent during a mission that went bad years ago, but nope: as it turns out, she was rescued by parties unknown and “gifted” with that terrifying eye-camera implant.īasically, her eye is like a horrible version of Google, a nightmare scanner/tracker transmitting information and receiving orders from a faceless entity. I still feel a little nauseous, though – thanks, Marvel.Īnyway, let’s back up to meet the owner of the gruesome eyeball situation:Īkela Amador, a former Agents of SHIELD agent and protégé of Coulson’s, is discovered to be behind a massive diamond heist. The only saving grace, when we got to that part, was that the eye looked super fake and surprisingly clean. Continuing the total horror fest, the eye was then semi-removed, just sort of dangling by its optic nerve (I think the stalk-y part is an optic nerve, and best believe I am not looking that mess up to check). Let me clarify – the patient stabbed a giant hypodermic needle into her eyes, WHILE BEING FULLY CONSCIOUS. This yucky premise was followed by a surgery in which the aforementioned eye was injected directly with anesthetic. So the scenario on this week’s Agents of SHIELD episode – a camera embedded in an eyeball that forces one to obey nefarious missions or risk tripping the kill-switch of death – was pretty much my worst nightmare. I’m also useless if you get dirt or something caught in your eye and need help flushing it – nope, sorry, can’t help you. ![]() I will never, ever wear contacts, because the thought of poking around in my eyes like that makes me shudder. You guys, I don’t deal well with eyeball-related stuff. This post may contain affiliate links, which means I may receive a small commission, at no cost to you, if you make a purchase.
