![]() ![]() The Bonnie and Clyde dynamic between Robbie and Daisy is delivering on the premiere's promise. At least Ghost Rider continues to deliver it seems SHIELD will continue to have Robbie Reyes transform into his flaming-skulled alter ego instead of having those be one-off appearances (impressive on a TV budget), and Gabriel Luna is owning the role. Ultimately they weren't very scary, and Agents of SHIELD's brief dip into horror was one of the more fun parts of this episode. The ghosts from Momentum Alternative Energy Labs were the weakest part of "Meet the New Boss." The effects were lacking, and the characters didn't deliver on the great ghost story vibe of the cold open. SHIELD's showrunners have already said that questions from the season premiere will be answered in Doctor Strange, and with the very overt mention that another Momentum lab is in New York and the Darkhold - aka the Book of Sins, which Lucy apparently was pursuing when they all got turned into spirits - being a notable item from the Doctor Strange comics, it could be that this storyline could come to a major turning point in that film. We've met four already, and the fifth seems to be the "Joe" Lucy kept talking about could one of the remaining three be Elias (or some variation of him), Robbie's uncle from the comics who is the key to his abilities? That would be an interesting way to bring everything together, but I get the vibe that Lucy and the rest of the ghost gang are keys to a bigger mystery, and the Momentum storyline is only a conduit to get us to whatever that is. Is Robbie Reyes the key to everything, like he thinks he might be? The show seems to be hinting "yes." That photo he grabbed in the lab seems to show the eight people who worked at Momentum Alternative Energy Labs at the time whatever happened to turn them all into ghost-like spirits. ![]()
