I've got to say, with all the hype everyone gave the episode, I found it on the disappointing side. Almost everything that happened was stuff that many people predicted (Ward's death, It taking it over afterwards, It having taken over Will, Will being dead, etc.). The whole May is avoiding Andrew thing was just kind of unnessessary.

And where is Andrew anyway? We know he got away and killed the new inhumans S.H.I.E.L.D. does have (Pity, they could have done a lot with those people) and that he killed the HYDRA dudes, but we don't know anything about his gameplay or if Andrew is really Andrew anymore. where will Lash fit into the It/Death storyline? Gideon wanted the inhumans for an army, but Lash just wants to kill the ones he deems not worthy.

Only real parts I liked is where Daisy told Mack she was staying as well, Mack told Bobbi that she was wired different than most folks, Joey is bulletproof (Let's face it, that was epic!), and Mack, Daisy, Phil, and Fitz returning to the team.

Ward's death was much too merciful. Honestly, what was Phil thinking keeping the dude alive so long? Just put two more bullets in him, make sure he's dead, and find Fitz. It's definitely the more logical decision. But of course, since people want Brett's character to still be around, they have Ward tag along, die, and It take over.

Overall, just disappointing. 5.5/10 to my standards. Merciful? Coulson crushed his chest with his hand! Slowly and intimately before finally finishing it.
