Yeah, I was confused about that, too. The flashback scene implies she was a Skrull agent that worked for him for a while. But then the scene about how she chose her current face implies she took over that woman's life to worm her way into Fury's life, as if he didn't know.

But the scene in Episode 4 at the dinner table in her house is him confronting her over it and asking her about it. As if he didn't know.

It's probably something they never addressed before, and only got into it now because of the discovery, not that she's an alien, but that she's working with Gravik.

To settle the thing, in today's episode he pretty much spells it out to British spy lady: he came back from space to deal with the skrull situation directly and without superheroes because this is personal to him because he married a skrull.

Half the point of this series has been that Fury only climbed so high because he had his House Skrulls doing spy work for him.
Which is another bit of character degradation but, you know, that's what they do now.

I am honestly very surprised they did that to Fury. It's very unusual.

I mean yes, they love to degrade and spite the legacy of men like Luke, Picard or Indiana Jones .White men that is.

You would think they would all be salivating about elevating a black man as a oppressed person. Maybe show how he manged to save the world and lead an organisation like SHIELD despite systemic racism. You know the usual.

The fact that not even black men are safe from being smeared by the woke cult shows things are getting more insane at Marvel.

It's kinda funny how Disney's need for diversity clashes with Gravik's plan.

>Have a shape-shifter army.
>Want to do a Russian false-flag attack.

It's not that odd. Remember the diversity pyramid means it's fine to shit on a black man if it elevates someone lower on the totem pole. Usually a black woman but depending on the writers some of them also consider white women lower on that pole too.

I'm guessing one of the main Skrulls interacting with him is a black woman?

Black role models are pretty much forbidden at this point in western media, and there is a concentrated effort to demonize them. The most frightening thing for the elites is the black people realising they never left the plantations.

You mean positive role models, negative that dindu nuffin you can have all over the place.

Aren't role models positive by default? At least before clown world happens.

Honestly, got me there, lets see what a dictionary says...

According to the Oxford one

A person that people admire and try to copy

By that definition, Tyronicusprime being a fucking hood rat turned rapper and admired by the niglets would count as one.

yeah, that was a fun moment

>Oh no, the US President is under attack in an ambush!

>There's... black... Russian soldiers...

I know they do it so we know Gravik is there (and for the diversity points) but come on, Skrulls. Shapeshift to look the part, you're supposed to be trying to make it believable.
 
How the fuck do you make a show that is meant to be an espionage thriller but has no mystery whatsoever, unless you really want to say Skurll Rodney is one.

The show is pretty much a wore rehash of what was done in Falcon and Winter Soldier, and that show set the bar super low. A group of people lost their homes and tries to get superpowers to take a new home by doing terrorist attacks.

The only good things I can say is, there are some good performances here even if they don't have anything to work with. And it looks like a normal run-of-the-mill tv show visually, which is a step up from the bad green screen fakeness of most Marvel shit especially this year's Ant-Man 3.

The overall show isn't that bad, just really dull which is worse to be honest, because bad at least can be interesting and keep you engaged,

Yeah, the appeal of making shapeshifters the main threat in your spy thriller is induce paranoia on who's human and who's the imposter setting everything up. This show never puts you in that mindset, every skrull is either obvious or nobody that matters (especially when, apart from Fury and Rhodey, none of the characters are anyone that mean much to us in terms of the MCU. I legit forgot the MCU even had Mariah Hill until this show). The comic event was pretty shoddy, but at least revealing some of the heroes to be Skrulls had some legit weight to it and they actually tried to make you wonder who's the genuine article, especially when they introduce how some Skrulls didn't even know they were Skrulls.
 
Maria Hill is such a wasted character. Even Coulson got his own show and he died.
