I think he was just saying that he was happy to be there with his ex-wife. Well, they apparently do have the ability to engineer precognition powers… Which of course would make them effectively invincible, but still. ---

I disagree with the above that he’s against Hydra now, but I think he’s WAY more scared of Ward than he was before. > > Also, we have This is Your Life touching Daisy who sees…Yo-Yos death? I thought that you saw YOUR OWN death. And actually, while I’m here, I thought the death was completely inevitable? How did This is Your Life finally, after years of trying and torture, finally save someone? Pure coincidence? Plot convenience? The premise is a tad shaky and ill-defined. I got the impression you saw things that you yourself would later witness, i.e. every vision is from the seer’s point of view, hence Daisy thought Coulson was shooting at her, but that doesn’t explain how she got an impression of Voltymort’s bloodied face, since I don’t recall her being present when he was injured. Similarly, This if Your Life’s wife described seeing a car crash (I think) but she didn’t actually witness that, either - just heard about it when her mother was later hospitalized. In any case, the visions seem to go into the future until you witness a death - your own or someone else’s. The real question, of course, is would Neo have still broken the vase if the Oracle hadn’t said anything. ---

All good points about TiYL’s visions. I guess his true power was seeing the death that was most pivotal to the plot. ---

On reflection, Daisy’s visions sure didn’t stop with the deaths of any of those five HYDRA guys she whacked. I guess they weren’t significant enough. Or was she using nonlethal “icer” rounds? Does the show still have those? [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/agents-of-shield-s3-e14-spacetime-4-5-16/751317.md?page=1)
