I loved Season 1 Simmons. I grew to intensely dislike-bordering-on-despise Season 2 Jemma. It took almost all of Season 3 to make me like her again. And I enjoyed her in 4A and 4B.
But 4C Jemma makes me want to do awful things to her. At bare minimum, I want to slap her across the face, hard. She needs to tone down the blatant, open, sneering contempt for someone who isn’t the same in this world and is actively risking his own life to save hers, repeatedly. If she can recognize that Framework!Fitz isn’t the same as Original Recipe Fitz, then she needs to get it through her thick skull that Framework!Ward isn’t the same as Original Ward.
If she doesn’t knock it off quickly, especially now that she’s seen Fitz do something awful, I’m going to be completely done with her. She has no excuses, she’s fully aware of the two worlds and the differences between them.
I am glad I’m not the only one because that is exactly how I’ve felt about her character throughout the series. Dear Lord the hypocrisy of her character is driving me insane and what makes it worse is that it’s not out of character for her because she’s always been pretty narrow minded, but Fitz usually balances that out which is why she was easy for me to like in season 3 and most of season 4, but now I just really want to slap her across the face.
