[Skye and Ward are playing Battleship]
Every decision you make from here on out ... has consequences. So be warned: the kiddie gloves are off.
... G-7.
[reluctantly] Hit.
Yes! [Ward places a red peg in one of his ships.] So explain to me again what this has to do with my training.
Well, it's important for every S.O. to ... evaluate their student's thought process.
[not convinced] Mm-hm.
And I like board games. B-10.
Nope. This isn't thinking; this is stabbing in the dark. But it's nice to take a break from the workouts.
[uncharacteristically nice] Well...you deserve a break. Gotta give Coulson credit. I never would've pegged an ex-Rising Tide hacker as a good fit, but...you're pickin' things up pretty fast.
[smiling, surprised] Did you just...give me a compliment?
[taken aback] I - no, I made a comment.
A kind one. Did it physically hurt to do that? [with a look of mock concern] Do you need an ice pack?
[Ward smiles]
[laughing] Wow! A compliment and a smile.
[more insistent] Comment.
I don't wanna ruin the moment...but I'm 'onna have to respond with...G-4. [Ward looks, then a look of unease crosses his face. Skye starts to smile in triumph.] Say it, Ward. [Ward says nothing.] Say it.
[reluctantly] You sank my battleship.
[in triumph] Ha-ha! Yes!
