Marvels Agents Of SHIELD Episode 15 Recap: Girl Power Asgardian Style


"Yes Men" was a fun episode after the two preceding emotionally taxing ones. Lorelei has broken her bonds in Asgard and has her sights on conquering Earth (and seducing all it's menfolk). Lady Sif arrives to take her back. Of course things dont go as planned in the beginning. This is probably BECAUSE THE FORCE THEY SENT IN TO FIGHT HER WERE ALL MEN. Seriously, do we need to tell you this stuff? During the battle Lorelei gets her mits on Ward. They head to where else but Las Vegas. Later Ward and Lorelei take control of the Bus (SHIELD's plane). 


Sif is locked in an interrogation room by Fitz. The roof is opened and she's sucked out. Good thing she's Asgardian cause that looked like a rough trip. Simmons is locked in Skye's hospital room. Coulson seems immune to Lorelei's charms. Is it because he is no longer human? That leaves May and Ward to fight it out. They struggle and Ward pulls a gun on her. He then pulls the trigger but luckily she has removed the clip so no bullets. Uh oh, that's not going to be good for their relationship. And sure enough, May kicks him to the curb. I agree. You cant keep (secretly) dating a guy after he tries to kill you. 


Meanwhile Sif and Lorelei battle it out and Sif finally gets the no-talk-collar on Lorelei. Now all the menfolk are back to normal. Sif takes her prisoner back to Asgard. She would like to kill her because Lorelei killed Sif's significant other but Odin wants Lorelei alive. After the action has died down, Coulson tells Skye that the drug that saved both of their lives is actually alien. She's not nearly as worried about is he is. After all, they both are alive so who cares? Coulson says they'll find out the truth. And in the big reveal of the episode, May is secretly listening to their conversation and calls someone saying "Coulson knows". Who did she call? Was it Nick Fury or the Clairvoyant or someone else? I really like you Agent May. I hope you dont end up being a baddy. 

Favorite Quotes:
  • "Poor thing, he's always getting knocked out a lot doesnt he?"- Simmons about Fitz.
  • "You took my plane, I want it back."- May to Lorelei
  • "My apologies, the damages caused to your flying boat were unfortunate."- LadySif,  it's a Bus, not a boat. 
  • Coulson asks Sif if she has any idea who the blue alien was that saved his and Skye's lives. "Uh, Interdites, Levians, Pheragots, Kree, Sarks, Centuarians, The Frost Giants tried to conquer your Earth a millenia ago..." says Lady Sif. Well that's a few options for sure. 

Episode Overview From Wikipedia:

Lorelei ditches her previous victim for a biker whose gang she enslaves for her plans to create an army. While talking to Skye, who has finally awoken from her coma, the team is summoned by May to investigate an energy reading in the desert consistent with the imminent arrival of an Asgardian. They encounter Lady Sif (Jaimie Alexander), who has come to Earth seeking Lorelei. Reuniting with Coulson, she explains that Lorelei escaped imprisonment in Asgard during the attack of the Dark Elves and that to reverse her power to control the minds of men, she must fit a special collar around Lorelei's neck that prevents her from speaking. The team and Sif travel to the biker bar Lorelei is using as a hideout, but during the battle, Lorelei enchants Ward and escapes with him. They go to Las Vegas, where Lorelei and Ward have sex in a hotel room, but when Coulson, Sif and a S.H.I.E.L.D. team catch up, the two are nowhere to be found. They realize too late that Ward and Lorelei, planning to eliminate any threats to Lorelei's rule, have commandeered the Bus with help from an enchanted Fitz, who locks Sif in the interrogation room and imprisons Simmons in Skye's recovery room. Coulson, pretending to be under Lorelei's power as well, learns of Simmons' location and frees her. Lorelei encounters May and claims that Ward revealed to her that despite their sexual relationship, his heart is with someone other than May. Simmons and Skye help trick Lorelei into entering the interrogation room, where Sif confronts her; while they fight, May is forced to do battle with Ward. Sif finally manages to disarm Lorelei, and despite Lorelei's attempts to get Sif to kill her, Sif fixes the collar to Lorelei's neck, undoing her enchantment on Ward and Fitz. Sif thanks Coulson for the team's aid and says that she will bring Lorelei back to Asgard on Odin's orders, while May ends her relationship with Ward. Coulson goes to Skye and confesses that he discovered the drug used to revive them both was alien in origin based on his own suspicions and information provided by Sif. Despite how disturbed Coulson is by this fact, Skye remains optimistic, and Coulson swears that they will get answers, beginning by tracking down the Clairvoyant once and for all. He orders Skye to keep the origin of the drug a secret until Nick Fury gives them the truth. It is revealed that May is secretly monitoring him. She picks up a secure phone line to a dead drop and informs the party on the other end that "Coulson knows". 

Grade: 4 Monsters (out of 5). A fun, solid episode. I'd like to see more of Lady Sif and Lorelei. "SHIELD" won't be back again until April.
