In a universe where I cared more about this show, perhaps this scene becomes a little more impactful for me. However, based on what little I've watched, the context provided, and how much I don't care about ether character in season 1, this scene comes off just about as dry as a man dropped off in the middle of the Sahara Desert with an empty water bottle in hand. The editing is frankly choppy and doesn't really illustrate the scene very well, and I sense zero chemistry between the two despite them supposedly being former lovers and Ward betraying Skye. Chloe needs way more anger in her "Never turn your back on the enemy" line, and also wow, what a generic and impersonal thing to teach someone. There's also something really goofy about Ward's facial expression after being shot. This is a scene of mismatched pieces that have the potential for something greater, but it just keeps fumbling at every possible opportunity.

Listen, suffering is a fact of life. Either you learn how to deal with that or you go under.
