Not the romantic kind, but the kind of team friendships and bonding moments that everyone \u2013 viewer and character alike \u2013 needs to solidify solutions to conflicts and motivations. First on the score was Phil and Melinda May (<a title=\"Click here to follow Ming-Na Wen on Twitter!\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MingNa\" target=\"_blank\">Ming-Na Wen<\/a>). <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Calibri'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Calibri';\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">Despite suffering a deep betrayal last season, it is evident that their war history has overcome previous conflicts. Melinda&#8217;s feelings for Phil are undeniable and a huge motivator as to why she continues to perform the job for him. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Calibri'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Calibri';\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">Melinda May is not quite as much the ice queen as many would believe and she has been opening up steadily even through this season.

While I certainly do not mind the plot device of twins fighting each other, it is an idea we have seen done several times over, usually to the confusion of the main character. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Calibri'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Calibri';\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">This was not the case, as Phil delivered his now-famous line, and then took off after another bad guy. While the impostor was physically impressive, she exhibited the same characteristics of any typical bad guy (especially in a &#8216;comic&#8217; sense of the show): she talked too much and was too agreeable. She was an unfortunate dead giveaway from the start and while she almost brought down the Bus, she was out of her league. The fight was pretty fun to watch, but ultimately it felt more like your basic bad-guy fight with an attempt at humor thrown in. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Agents of SHIELD S204 - Face My Enemy - Fitz Rejects Simmons\" href=\"http:\/\/abc.go.com\/shows\/marvels-agents-of-shield\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9933\" src=\"http:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/shield\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Agents-of-SHIELD-S204-Face-My-Enemy-Fitz-Rejects-Simmons.png\" alt=\"Agents of SHIELD S204 - Face My Enemy - Fitz Rejects Simmons\" width=\"640\" height=\"298\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/shield\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Agents-of-SHIELD-S204-Face-My-Enemy-Fitz-Rejects-Simmons.png 640w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/shield\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Agents-of-SHIELD-S204-Face-My-Enemy-Fitz-Rejects-Simmons-256x119.png 256w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/shield\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Agents-of-SHIELD-S204-Face-My-Enemy-Fitz-Rejects-Simmons-320x149.png 320w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/shield\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Agents-of-SHIELD-S204-Face-My-Enemy-Fitz-Rejects-Simmons-400x186.png 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Calibri'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Calibri';\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">The heart of the episode, I feel, was brought again by Iain de Caestecker. His abilities to convey what Fitz is going through despite the sudden loss of screen time brings me into the show every time he is on screen. Now that we know Jemma Simmons is in danger in her HYDRA cover, seeing her as Fitz&#8217;s hallucination make the drama for him much more real, and Iain builds on that, convincingly (and in my opinion realistically), reacting to everything around him. I got choked up when he walked away from the bonding moments going on. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Agents of SHIELD S204 - Face My Enemy - Fitz Steps Up\" href=\"http:\/\/abc.go.com\/shows\/marvels-agents-of-shield\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9934\" src=\"http:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/shield\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Agents-of-SHIELD-S204-Face-My-Enemy-Fitz-Steps-Up.png\" alt=\"Agents of SHIELD S204 - Face My Enemy - Fitz Steps Up\" width=\"640\" height=\"301\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/shield\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Agents-of-SHIELD-S204-Face-My-Enemy-Fitz-Steps-Up.png 640w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/shield\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Agents-of-SHIELD-S204-Face-My-Enemy-Fitz-Steps-Up-256x120.png 256w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/shield\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Agents-of-SHIELD-S204-Face-My-Enemy-Fitz-Steps-Up-320x150.png 320w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/shield\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Agents-of-SHIELD-S204-Face-My-Enemy-Fitz-Steps-Up-400x188.png 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Calibri'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Calibri';\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">Last season, Fitz felt he had something to prove after Ward saved Jemma. Now he has something else to prove \u2013 that he is capable of doing his job despite being heartbreakingly damaged. By the end of the episode, he is doing that, enough so that the rest of the team sees what he wants \u2013 and is more than willing to give it to him.
