Does the Wolf Apologize? || Grant Ward

I've wanted to make a Ward tribute for a long time, I finally happened upon this song and the lyrics just fit too well to not do it. Ward is definitely one of my favorite AoS characters, he was so screwed up but so layered. We got so many glimpses of his better nature, but obviously as the show went on he just went full-blown psychopath. Framework Ward is the closest we're probably ever going to get to a "redemption arc" for Ward, which I'm ok with, I'm so beyond happy they brought him back for that. I love this character so here is my tribute, hope you all enjoy! :)

This show has never been the same since Ward died. He was a villain with depth. Someone you hated and loved at the same time because there was more to him than just the "villain of the week" motivation. We got to see him the way he saw himself, as a hero even though he truly was a murdering son of a bitch.

[@dabagel580]

i actually felt like although ward was pictured as an irredeemable character, but they stilll sprinkled the idea that he could be redeemable and i think he should've died doing the right thing. i feel like he should've saved fitz's life someway. I felt like it would've been a much better heartfelt and emotional ending to his character

[@cath456]

Such an amazing character, complex and intriguing even after he showed his true colours

[@UnKnown-bo8ce]

"You can't reconcile all the ugly, horrible things you do...with the hero... you so *desperately* want to become." Man, I love that line!

[@LordMonstrux]

I know ward was a murderous psychopath, but that cuts deep for anyone

[@allisonpan5278]

grant ward is such a complex and well written character that it's impossible for me to hate him, even after everything. he's probably one of the best villains of all time. congratulations on making the PERFECT edit to encompass that.

[@JesseJr19]

that was really well done, Ward was one of the most interesting character of the show, you showed his complexity very well!!

[@trinitystudiosediting]

thank you!! :)

[@johnrie18]

Seven seasons later and Ward is still my favorite thing about this show. He was a villain yes but one you sympathized with and even rooted for despite being a cold blooded murderer. They really took the time to flesh him out and in the end, they did everything they could with his character. It's always a shame when such a great character arc runs its course and the only thing left is to put him to rest. Also I did not care for Hive.

[@joweekley6742]

I was so shocked when I first found out he was bad! It was such an intense episode and story development. Fantastic edit!

[@ghost-wl3pm]

I just love the way this video captures the creepy, murdering side of him, while at the same time the more vulnerable and broken side. I LOVE THIS

[@somili1857]

I can't stop imagining the fact that he could have a totally different life, only need something good happens to him until it’s too late

[@SunnyVids]

I can't express how much I LOVE this.

[@trinitystudiosediting]

thank you so much, that means a lot coming from you! :)

[@haydenkirkham4579]

I do miss Ward, a lot actually. I do want to see him again, but that's literally impossible unless Fitz created another bot that is exactly like Ward, or maybe the 'hydra' of the future created him using time travel. Or something just over the top. I want to see Ward again, the good Ward. But amazing edit. I loved it.

[@haydenkirkham4579]

Da Bagel oh definitely, that would be the best way to end it. He hurt Fitz the most, despite him not intending to. He broke Fitz. It would be like a good way of redeeming him. Saving the one person who he hurt the most.

[@chloek9029]

This is SO GOOD! Truly captured the duplicity of this complex character, Ward is my favourite, they truly displayed him so well.

[@entropicvoid1174]

He's a fantastic character and this is a fantastic video.

[@gravity1013]

Ward is a great character

[@shecoversswift]

This is amazing! The song, the clips, the way it builds, the parallels- everything! And I love that you've tied Framework Ward into it, and the way he apologises for the actions of the 'real Ward' if you like. This edit reflects his entire character and story arc so well! The evil that Garrett made him into but the good that was always underneath, just never enough of it to win the fight between his dark side and good side. Love it!

[@trinitystudiosediting]

thank you!! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

aw thank you :)

this is a beautiful tribute to this character

thank you!

[@jossiem1625]

Wow, this is the most amazing edit I've seen about Ward, you are so freaking talented!! 👏👏🙌🙌 Even tho I hate him so much lol, this was so well done that it goes to my list of favorite edits!!

[@trinitystudiosediting]

Tysm!! I'm glad you enjoyed it! :D

[@radhabalakrishnan3557]

you'll never be able to truly hate ward and that's what makes him such a great character

[@WinterPompano99]

Incredible edit, the first really good edit that reflects Ward!!! This might be an unpopular opinion, but i liked Ward the whole time, he was a good man even after all his actions.

[@trinitystudiosediting]

thank you!! :)

[@akacozymint]

i liked him a lot, but as a villain. he was a terrible person, don’t forget that

@@akacozymint not very true he just felt to much and had nothing

[@AdzzieMac]

Such a great character

[@TheFalseAppareance]

Wonderful video! I'm so happy people keep making videos about this amazing character!

[@kait7168]

Such a missed opportunity. Everybody glosses over the fact that he was brainwashed by Garrett into being the perfect soldier. I can’t believe nobody acknowledged that and demonized him so severely. He was a vulnerable, troubled teenager taken out to the wilderness and was broken down to be built back up by Garrett. He learned to throw away all personal attachments except Garrett and that he could only depend on him. That’s what cults do- he was brainwashed. I feel like that should have been mentioned at least, maybe by Bobbi since psychology was her thing.

[@RenaldyCalixte]

Bobbi did mention that. Her argument was that Ward never took responsibility for things he did outside of Garrett's influence. For instance convincing Agent 33 to get revenge against Bobbi by torturing her. Garrett didn't tell Ward to convince Agent 33 to hurt Bobbi. Also in the Framework Ward was recruited by Victoria Hand and became a Shield Agent. Also Also in the Deke Shaw of Shield timeline Ward will be a loyal Shield Agent for Deke when he gets older.

[@michaelplayer1066]

Grant ward killmonger and Bucky my favorite mcu characters

[@Teansy]

This video is so freakin' good!! One of my absolute favorite "villains" of all time, he's one of the most complex and greatest characters. Stunning work, I love this!

[@trinitystudiosediting]

thank youu!!

[@knoote9684]

Love this video! It’s one of my favorites.

[@nukar5193]

If you love ward after everything he’s done you’re a sociopath. Me: sign me up cuz I’m in Love ❤️💯😭

[@smartpuppy6565]

WOW. I have been binge-watching your account, and holy CRAP! Your edits are incredible and EXTREMELY underrated! This is literally the best editing job I have seen in a while. You capture everyone's attention in the first bit, and deliver absolute chills with the rest. I am in love with all your Agents of Shield videos, and just wanted to let you know how much talent you have!!

[@trinitystudiosediting]

tysm!! I'm so glad you enjoyed them, and thank you for making my day with your kind words! ❤

[@granuailelenora4807]

such a well written and complex and layered character?! also there are soooo many catra similarities in him

[@Justalittlegirl23]

Wow, thank you for this tribute. You perfectly showed the many layers he had as a character, and the editing was flawless 🌟

[@wintersoldier164]

man, i feel bad for him, he was abused by his parents, lost his younger brother, lost his loved one.

[@caoilinn1634]

In my opinion, yes ward betrayed them all and was the bad guy and all but I feel that he was just misunderstood kind of. Like he was brought up in a toxic family, then he was taught by a hydra agent so can we really blame him for becoming who he has. And he showed that he did care for the team but that was a 'weakness' so he 'eliminated' it . And he loved daisy but daisy Oviously didn't like him as she wanted him to rot in hell-

[@vorce4144]

had me in tears i loved ward wish they would have kept him the whole show kinda feel when he died but i cant say or explain how this makes me feel i really wish they did better with framework ward

[@rojerperez5061]

Ward,es el mejor,,no debió salir nunca de la serie

[@arunkrishna8854]

He Will back

[@einavfeigen2736]

this is the most beautiful edit I have ever seen. you are so TALENTED!

[@trinitystudiosediting]

aw thank you! 😊

[@everettparker1313]

This was an Incredible Masterpiece for Grant Ward My Second Favorite Character and Villain on Agents of Shield. Brett Dalton Did a Legendary Job as Grant Ward, Hive and Framework Grant Ward. I kinda wish That The Real Version of Grant Ward would gotten have redeemed instead gone full evil and then getting killed in the process but I’am happy that there’s a version of him that is good. I was so happy Brett Dalton return for Season 4 of Agents of Shield and that The Framework Version of Grant Ward stayed Good I wish we could have kept him.

[@RenaldyCalixte]

The Deke Shaw Director of Shield timeline also has a good Grant Ward because Victoria Hand will be the one to recruit that version of Ward not Garrett.

[@Renagade2332]

Truly amazing.

[@trinitystudiosediting]

thanks!

[@barbaramonteiro7861]

Really really good!!!

[@trinitystudiosediting]

Thank you!

If I could like this video 80 times for every time I watched it and cried... There'd be a whole lot more likes 💔😍😭

The best video ever

[@Xene.]

Nice work!! 🔥

[@trinitystudiosediting]

thanks! :)

YongWard 🤧

[@BlackwoodSupremacy]

The best moment in the show is when Ward killed Victoria Hand

[@marlingames112]

Ward vs The punisher would be amazing

[@RenaldyCalixte]

I think Ward would imitate Billy Russo's strategies against Punisher. Using knives and deception to get the upper hand.

[@rojerperez5061]

Ward es el más completo,era muy importante en la historia ,no debió terminar asi

[@marianaaguieiras]

Hey, I did Portuguese subtitle just for fun, if you open for subtitles I can add it here...

[@trinitystudiosediting]

Done, go ahead! And thank you! :)

[@ShieldVids]

Fucking amazing edit. I thought your last ward one was good but this one is amazing.

[@trinitystudiosediting]

Tysm!! :)

[@mish2637]

I know he did some really bad things to them, but I hate the rest of the team for not giving him a chance to be good, after he betrayed them, they just never took the time to understand him, they just wrote him off as a terrible person and ignored the person he could've been.

[@reaganmccarthy398]

i wanna hate him so bad but like he’s so likeable besides the HYDRA part and liar thing…. but there’s one thing i can never forgive him for and that’s dropping fitz and simmons in the ocean. he changed fitz forever. he was never the same after that

[@RenaldyCalixte]

Without Ward Daisy would have never gotten super powers.

[@paulhegarty5729]

The show just was nt good when he died
