Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. - Episode 13 Review

This episode was shown quite a few weeks ago in the US, and here in the UK we were promised supposedly one of the best episodes Agents of SHIELD has had to offer so far. While it wasn't quite the best, it was still pretty cool.
The plot is essentially Firefly's 'The Train Job' but Agents of SHIELD-style and with a few notable twists. In fact, it reminds me of an episode of The Simpsons, telling the same story from a different person or group of people's perspective, which soon gets rather boring as it isn't edited together very well. However, once this is all over the story finally gets started and Ian Quinn appears! Skye and Fitz track him down and Skye comes face to face with Michael Peterson - who soon becomes Deathlok.
While this is a great twist, I feel that an explanation of what's happening from Mike's point of view since Episode 11 would have helped the audience understand why he is now 'evil'.
But now SHIELD have Ian Quinn, and an injured Skye to work with. I'm certainly interested in the future of the show with this half of the series being what I want Agents of SHIELD to be - an ongoing story with each episode being a sort of Part 1 or Part 2 to this story, making it more watch-able. More is coming and I'm looking forward to what happens next, despite this rather strange episode. 8/10
