This episode was bad. I still find the focus on Skye overbearing -- seriously, this plot isn't blowing my metaphorical skirt up -- so although it was otherwise a serviceable filler episode, one story outweighed the other by a lot.
Worst moment: the fact that Skye was a "special" baby. I know she has her fans, but for me, she just comes off as this massive blackhole where my interest in this show goes to die. Partially seems to be because of the writing, partially because of the acting, mostly because of this godawful backstory I don't care about.
I was hyped for awesome adventures when I first started watching, but instead ... I found female Wesley Crusher.
In other news, everyone else was still okay. And I'm liking Fitz more and more. It was nice to see the Academy.
