Diplomacy's hit a few snags,
The sort that require body bags.
So war's broken out,
The battle's a rout,
And Jiaying's busy planting false flags.
Now, Raina serenely objects,
But Jiaying needs all her subjects.
So rather than gloat,
She just cuts Raina's throat,
But Skye catches her and defects.
Now Cal seems to be in a clamp,
But a drug cocktail gives him an amp.
And while those prosthetics
Might fail in aesthetics,
MacLachlan's delightfully camp.
The Inhumans will not be barred,
And catch the carrier off-guard.
They capture the ship,
But some give them the slip,
And Mack gets to pull a Die Hard.
Hunter and May found the spot
Where Bobbi was tricked and then caught.
The two win the day,
Although in the melee,
Both Bobbi and faux-May get shot.
Jiaying has Terrigen, and gets to it,
Flying out to more broadly spew it.
Skye's ready to spring,
But then Cal kills Jiaying
To spare Skye from having to do it.
That's done, but there's still more to set,
And there must still be some kind of threat.
So Terrigens fly
Into the food supply
To set up more Inhumans yet.
So Cal, for his dopey part,
Is set loose with blank mind but big heart.
But Coulson and Skye
Must return to play spy.
There's a Secret Avengers to start.
With FitzSimmons together anew,
A few people's ships have come true.
But before that's adjourned,
While Fitz's back is turned,
Simmon's swallowed by alien goo.
For a while, the show had declined,
And I'd written it off in my mind,
But free of that fetter,
This finish is better
Than the rest of the season combined.
So our heroes find Wells' track,
But he runs when they come to attack.
Wells remains un-caught,
But it wasn't for naught,
'Cause they manage to get Eddie back.
But Wells' plans aren't saved for later,
And he might turn the lab to a crater,
And "meta"s under key
Will be doomed if he
Re-starts the accelerator.
Although Barry never forgave them,
He still won't let Wells autoclave them.
And though it's not smart,
He even hires Snart
In one last-ditch effort to save them.
So he gets them all out, perforce,
But it turns into a Trojan Horse.
They all get in a scrape,
The rogues make their escape,
And it all goes to crap, 'cause of course.
And there's time for one more mad dash,
With a massive blowout, team-up clash
As Firestorm and Arrow
Both jump on the barrow
To beat up Wells, the Reverse-Flash.
Ollie's, by now, purged of all pity,
And his affect seems all dark and gritty.
And now he's come through,
He is thusly meant to
Marry Nyssa, then kill Starling city.
But he has a new plan unfurlin',
That, with luck, will set us whirlin'
Although it's unclear
Where it all goes from here,
He's secretly plotting with Merlyn.
To Starling town Merlyn then treks
To recruit those who Ollie respects.
They launch an assault
On old Ra's Al Ghul's vault,
And Tatsu puts a sword through her ex.
Ollie's meant to confuse and inspire us,
Though the flashbacks continue to tire us.
So Akio's dead,
Ollie's soon to be wed,
And his friends are locked up with the virus.
It*s not meant to be understood
Whether Ollie's with the brotherhood.
Nobody knows.
That keeps us on our toes,
And this ep was uncommonly good.
