Frankly I question the judgment of all the founding S.H.I.E.L.D. officers for letting the HYDRA brain trust into the fold after WWII. It doesn't matter if these Nazi collaborators possessed knowledge S.H.I.E.L.D. could use;  they should have been shipped off to Nuremburg to stand trail for war crimes like the rest of the Nazis. Seventy years later that decision has come back to bite S.H.I.E.L.D. and the world with a vengance. When word gets back to Coulson and everyone that Ward killed Hand and two agents and defected to Hydra how do you think people will take the news? Coulson may want to resign - another betrayal; FitzSimmons would gawk in disbelief; Skye would be disappointed but will buck up and finish the job; but May...she will take it the hardest. May said she was the one that put the team together, picking everyone out. She let a HYDRA agent on the Bus; whick would go to her sense of judgment. She let the same HYDRA agent into her bed. In "Turn, Turn, Turn" you can tell May was still stinging about Ward's encounter with Lorelei, but she tries to mask it by being angry about Ward shooting Nash to protect "her". She'll now think Ward slept with her as part of his infiltration of the team. Depsite May's speeches about operatives doing whatever necessary to get the job done and no-strings-attached sex, she's going to feel like she was played like Lotto. When the team catches up with Ward they better get out of the way. Hell hath no fury like a May scorned.
