Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. season 1

(only episodes 1to4)
I'm watching this on italian tv so I don't have the exact lines and I'm taking the episode titles from IMDB. I'm also watching an episode a week, currently I've watched four of them.
I like this series, Agent Coulson has his own show!! :-D I always liked Coulson too, must be Clark Gregg's face :-) Shield means Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division, and I don't think I'll ever be able to remember all that :-/
ep 1 - Pilot - Coulson puts a new team together, with Melinda May (Ming-Na Wen) who apparently is like a great warrior who doesn't want to fight anymore; Ward(Brett Dalton) who is some kind of super agent who likes to work alone; a couple of scientists who need get used to: Leo Fitz (Iain De Caestecker) and Jemma Simmons (Elizabeth Henstridge); and a new girl who is an hacker fighting for freedom, to uncover conspiracies and all that kind of things. This episode was nice, with a good guy with a strange substance inside him that made him superstrong, but also unstable, and they stopped him before he exploded... by shooting him in the head, or something like it.  :-) He's safe though :-)
I like Coulson, and it was a nice scene when he was in front of the guy talking to him before he was shot... In this episode he also explained that it is a secret that he's not dead after "The Avengers", although I thought it was clear already, but maybe only to someone, not to everybody :-)
ep 2 - 0-8-4 - This episode was more boring than the first one. They fly to Peru to retrieve a strange object, meet the local army whose commander is Camilla, ex 'partner' of Phil .-) and they run away together when attacked by rebels, only it was not the safe thing to do because on the plane she turns on them when her soldiers take control of the plane. There was conflict inside the team, because man-of-action Ward thinks those three are not qualified to be on the team, and they think he acts before thinking, which of course are all good points, really. Now they have a common enemy, so with Mei they cooperate to retake control of the plane and possess of the artifact. I don't know why Coulson keeps talking about his 'death', we know okay?
Anyway, they win but since they are the good guys they still try to save the others.
It ends with all the team finally together, and with Mei and Ward deciding that he should be Sky's personal trainer... which I really, really hope won't be a prelude to a future love-story between them! It would be so boring.
After having won, worked together against a common enemy now they do feel like a team, but Sky receives a strange message from Rising Tide and she secretly replies "I'm in" which is kind of ridiculous because Coulson was near her and she holds the phone for a long time, and nobody noticed or cared? Well, she might have her personal life, but still, they probably will say that her calls were monitored for safety, or that she tried to appear normal to Rising Tide to gain information for the team, although this last one wouldn't make sense at this early stage. And by the way, what does "I'm in" mean? That they are planning something and she wants in on that, or that "she's in" meaning inside the Shield, part of the team, maybe the fact that they find her was planned beforehand? After all, she's described as a genius hacker, so maybe she wanted to be found and be part of the team for some hidden purpose... Well, we'll see.
ep 3 - The asset - This episode is still not as nice as the first one. There's a very, very powerful object that can alter gravity and do a lot of damage. Dr Hall is kidnapped to work on it, and Sky offers to infiltrate this powerful Ian's party to help save him, not knowing that being kidnapped is exactly what Dr Hall wanted, to destroy it for good, no matter how many lives he has to take with his in order to do so.
Since May said from the start she doesn't want to fight anymore, Coulson goes himself, with Ward, and he has to stop Dr Hall while Ward saves Sky. I think we can say that she definitely made her choice to stay with them, here. I hope. I'm very glad she didn't shoot, because sometimes in this series they tend to make things too easy too quickly. She worked with computer, and personally I think it's already too much that she could get his weapon, but we may justify that with the thought that he was as surprised as we were, he wasn't expecting her to try anything, and that's why she could do it. But she could not shoot him. Good. She's not a soldier.
At the end, May says that she wants to be operative again, to watch Phil's back, since he's a bit rusty :-D
It seems she was worried about him :-D
ep 4 - Eye spy - I like this episode. There's a girl, Akela Amador, who is a former agent, trained by Coulson, that now steals diamonds. Coulson wants this operation because he wants to help her. May would like to hunt her down as the enemy, but he doesn't. He wants to find her and understand why she's doing it, so they find out that someone gave her a fake, sort-of-bionic eye with a bomb inside. They are controlling her, ordering her to do what they want. May goes to her alone but Coulson gets there in time and they take her and remove the bomb. He wants to give her a second chance.
I liked Sky in this episode because she was all on his side, backing his decisions, saying that he believed in her so that means he can judge people :-) so she trusts his decisions. I liked that.
I wonder, May was just worried for Phil or was she jealous? Well, I understand, anyway, I like him too. :-D
