Promo pics for episodes 3x21 & 3x22:

Ok I just watched ep 21 and it was really good !
I was surprised at the end with daisy saying take me back.

but the whole ep was well done, and I cant say it had any flaws, which is unusual
for me.

many surprises in the ep, and I have to say daisy looked good in this ep.

Will watch 22 later and post on it.

Saw the finale last nite, and it was pretty good!
Sad about lincoln, but glad it wasnt daisy.

I guess old ward is now gone for good.
Good writing overall, and pretty good season, might be better as a rewatch.

Yeah, wow, that was a really good finale!
I agree on Lincoln, that scenes with him and Daisy on the com and then with him and "Ward" finally awaiting death with that look on earth kind of got under my skin ... very well done!
And the final cliffhanger ... Coulson isn't director anymore ... and what did that scientist (we know him from Spartacus, don't we?) just create?? AIDA?? A new kind of Hive??
Glad we got a 4th season despite the lately sadly poor ratings ...

I agree with you both, great finale, sad about Lincoln, what is Daisy up to now? I kinda hope the new director is Nick Fury. I'm gonna miss Ward. I am looking forward to Season 4.
