Agents Of SHIELD: 10 Things That Need To Happen In Season 3
8. A Resolution To FitzSimmons
One of the major cliffhangers of season two involved one of the major overarching plots of the series. In the first season, Fitz and Simmons were basically one composite character, the nerdy science bods who possibly had something romantic going on. That all got torn apart when they were thrown out of a plane and almost drowned.
Subsequently, Simmons went off to infiltrate HYDRA whilst everyone thought she was dead. Everyone but Fitz, who kept on talking to a hallucination of Simmons. They were eventually reunited, but not long after she was almost killed by HYDRA after being outed and then, in the last episode of the season, was absorbed by a Kree weapon.
Woops. All of which begs the question: will there ever be a resolution to the FitzSimmons “will they, won't they?” Season three seems like the point they should commit either way. Either she's alive, and they hook up; or she's alive, but they're in such different places now they can't get together; or else she's definitely dead and that's the end of that.
