didn't he totally misread in this ep? And
why didn't he just shoot (with the "icer") instead of blurting out how he was rapidly coming to the realization that this person was the traitor in their midst? Lame.
Because deep down, he didn't really believe that she was the traitor and he just wanted the truth. He kept demanding that she explain herself, and when she said not only that she reported to Fury but also that she was the one who'd actually assembled the team, he genuinely didn't know what to do next. He trusted Fury and Fury trusted her, apparently even more than Fury trusted him, so…? He'd been paranoid and off-balance ever since he discovered that Tahiti wasn't such a magical place after all, and this latest revelation left him like a turtle on its back.

Not me. When I heard that Garrett had been Coulson's partner
and Ward's supervising officer, in addition to his years spent "hunting" the Clairvoyant, I knew something was up. Too many connections to be a coincidence, in an organization as large as S.H.I.E.L.D., in a show like this. And the clincher was that Ward asked to come with and "turn the key". The proper reaction from someone who'd been close to Garrett
but never recruited was rage and disgust, as both Triplett and Coulson showed.
But I imagine there's yet another twist coming. Remember, "trust the system"…
