Note: Full spoilers for Marvel's Agents of SHIELD's Season 1 finale follow.
The Agents of SHIELD finale had a lot to accomplish and ultimately did a very strong job wrapping up the main Garrett and Ward storyline, while also setting up a lot for Season 2.
While we knew Samuel L. Jackson would be appearing in the finale, it was a very nice surprise to find out he actually had a notable guest role that took Nick Fury through several scenes, rather than just the cameo I think most of us assumed it would be. His entrance was a great one, when he miraculously showed up to pull Simmons out of the water in her time of need.
It was hardly a surprise that Fitz and Simmons were still alive when the episode began, but it led to some very good material. Iain De Caestecker and Elizabeth Henstridge were great in the scene where the two of them spoke about how their particles existed before them and will exist after, as they prepared for their deaths as best they could. And yes, we’ve seen the “only one of us can make it out” situation many times, but it was still quite powerful here, and Henstridge (who’s proven to be continually terrific) was extremely heart wrenching, as Simmons realized Fitz was going to die…
