A new clip has been released from Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. season 1, episode 3, “The Asset,” showing Skye sparring with Agent Ward.
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. season 1, episode 3 will air this coming Tuesday on ABC. Titled “The Asset,” the episode will focus largely on hacker, S.H.I.E.L.D. consultant, and apparent double-agent Skye, who will take on her first mission for the team.
A new sneak peek has been released from Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. season 1, episode 3, which sets up Skye’s developing relationship with Agent Ward.
In the sneak peek, Skye arrives – late – for her morning drills with Agent Ward. Evidently, Skye will be trained as an official agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. in “The Asset,” as Ward is now acting as her Supervising Officer. Skye isn’t thrilled to be hitting a punching bag for ten minutes, but as sullen as he is, Ward seems more relaxed than we have seen him so far. (Maybe he likes talking about death. Or pull-ups.)
It isn’t entirely clear yet how Skye (who was ostensibly recruited by Agent Coulson for her hacking skills) has flipped over to becoming a field agent in training. Still, it will certainly be interesting to watch her take on a non-accidental assignment.
The official summary from ABC for Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. season 1, episode 3 offers a hint at why Skye might the organization’s choice for this mission.
When the brilliant scientist Dr. Franklin Hall is kidnapped, Agent Coulson and his S.H.I.E.L.D. agents must race against the clock to locate him. Skye is their only way in — pushing the team to their limits when the entire plan turns upside-down.
