Last week, the team learned the truth about Ward and, thanks to the snitching ways of Maria Hill, were forced out of their secret snow base. Now with nothing but a motel room and some automatic weapons, Team Coulson must finish the mission they started when Hydra first took over: find and stop Garrett at all costs. Now, how this next clip plays into that plan is anyone’s guess:
So… a good question is raised here: why didn’t FitzSimmons go under cover as scientists? One can only imagine there’s some real need for a tactical agent to be inside rather than two of S.H.I.E.L.D.’s top scientists. Either way, it is funny to watch them bicker via ear-piece.

Judging from the scene, I’m guessing this lab/company has a lot of former SHIELD tech, and they need to steal some of it for their mission, seeing as they no longer have access to any on their own… the fact the lab openly admits hiring Hydra scientists is a bit disturbing, considering Hydra are actual, known terrorists, unlike SHIELD, who are labeled terrorists by association.
Yes, Merrill, one can only image.
