Continuity mistake: Hive tells Daisy that he knows she feels bad about lying to Lincoln. She has her head turned to the side, looking up directly at Hive in her close-up. Then, when the angle changes to show Hive, suddenly Daisy is looking straight ahead at her computer screen. (00:31:58)
Maria Hill: What does S.H.I.E.L.D. Stand for, Agent Ward?

Question: Is there any explanation to how Agent Coulson is alive even after Loki killed him in The Avengers?
Chosen answer: Coulson believes he was resuscitated then sent to Tahiti to recuperate. "A magical place," he calls it. But in the "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." episode "The Magical Place", Coulson, through a mind-reading machine, learns that he was treated by S.H.I.E.L.D. and a fake memory of Tahiti was placed as a "mask" of sorts over the painful memory of the operation, which involved a drug seemingly of alien origin to repair the damage, coupled with a lot of morally dubious surgery.
