Firefly Rewatch: 1.05 (Safe) - You gave up everything you had

skye

Touche, and apologies. I think I worded my reblog pretty harshly and with the wrong word to describe how I felt about Skye.

I'll explain a little more accurately why my post was so charged. I guess I was referring less to the success of her past endeavors with the team (all of which were no doubt very helpful to them in critical moments) and more to the very stark improvement in her emotional maturity. Before, she was very much portrayed as someone who was somewhat childish despite her many talents and treated as such even by Coulson (who reacted to saving her life in an extremely fatherly and maybe even patronizing manner until he broke the news about the treatment to her). The show kind of rubs that in the viewer's face (think back to her persistent need to look up her origins and the team's subsequent response to her ulterior motives - she has to spend episodes upon episodes proving herself again to them and the show didn't quite balance that very well with other subplots) to the point that it became irritating to see her modus operandum.

But I felt that in the latest episdoe, Skye finally came into her own, so to speak. Instead of reacting due to stress or letting her emotions get the best of her in a situation where most people, let alone a relatively inexperienced agent, would have already broken down and been found out by Ward, she pulled it together and is holding her own for the sake of the team and using her skills with finesse. Her actions are no longer imbued with an inherent sense of recklessness or immaturity colored with a combination of her skill and beginner's luck, but rather her true abilities as a SHIELD agent.
