Do people just NOT go on the bleeding internet? HOW MANY TIMES are we going to get the maple syrup question?! I swear, panels are just the same questions on loop. It's driving me crazy!!
I'm pretty sure that the truth serum was a lie, just as Ward confirmed in episode 3. It doesn't make any sense otherwise. Imagine if SHIELD actually had a truth serum, LOL. That would sure makes things much easier for them. But they never use it... wonder why? Obviously because it doesn't exist. And even if it did, there's no way in hell that Coulson would let a non-SHIELD person, let alone Rising Tide hacker, interrogate a SHIELD agent. It's a completely ridiculous idea. The whole thing was clearly a lie Coulson and Ward used to manipulate Skye through a good cop/bad cop routine. Like Ward said "my level 1 overshare that miraculously got you to cooperate". She gets to see Coulson as a friend and bond with him. And of course, Ward revealed absolutely nothing at all important during that scene (though Skye made it easier by asking irrelevant question and being clearly more interested in him than in SHIELD secrets). And the first thing he says when he's supposedly given the truth serum? "It did (hurt), but I like to mask my pain in front of beautiful women, it makes me look more masculine". So, not only does she get to bond with the fatherly Coulson, but the young hot agent with the belligerent attitude signals his attraction to her, but in such a non-threatening manner that she gets to feel she's in control and that *she* is taunting and seducing *him*. That's pretty clever. What else does he say? Classic things you'd expect a SHIELD agent to say, like "I've killed people, but they were bad people trying to hurt good people, and I felt bad otherwise". And the adorably awkward "Gramsy?" is probably a total lie - there's no mention of Ward having any living grandmother or having good relations with any members of his family.
Nice. I actually met him on the 2nd day and got a picture with him. Very nice guy. :)
