Agents of SHIELD is coming down the stretch run for season 1 and kicked it off with a bang in "End of the Beginning". This is a review for "End of the Beginning" so there WILL be spoilers for not only this episode, but all previous episodes.
***** SPOILERS TO FOLLOW *****
"End of the Beginning" starts out by getting us accustomed to the new and improved Deathlok.
After he attacks John Garrett and Agent Triplett, Coulson calls a meeting between himself, Garrett, Victoria Hand, Agent Sitwell, and Agent Blake. Coulson wants to step up the pursuit of the clairvoyant. To do this they have Skye devise a plan after she was made an official SHIELD agent.
By hunting down the clairvoyant, using Deathlok as a tracker, the team gets in all sorts of trouble. They eventually find a man named Thomas Nash in the basement of an abandoned race track. Nash is unable to move or talk due to his physical condition but uses a computer to do his talking. He warns Coulson of a "greater force" coming for him and Skye to get what they want and even threatens to kill Skye to do so. This sets off Ward and causes him to kill Nash.
Just when we think we solved the clairvoyant problem, Marvel has to throw in a twist just as they always do. Coulson poses the question that Nash was just a decoy and that the real clairvoyant is a SHIELD agent. Agent May seems to be involved and almost takes out Fitz after he disconnects her secure phone line. As the episode is ending, the plane gets turned around by a command from Victoria Hand who orders all aboard the plane be killed upon landing, except Coulson. Is Hand the real clairvoyant? If not who do you think it could be?
