Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 2 Spoilers: Does Cobie Smulders Return as Maria Hill?

Season 2 of Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. continues Tuesday, and it appears that a familiar face returns...sort of.

The following comes from the "Matt's Inside Line" column at TVLine:

"Is there a possibility of Cobie Smulders reprising her role as Maria Hill on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. this season? -T
I don't know about Cobie appearing in the flesh, but you will see 'Maria Hill' in this Tuesday's episode, which as you know finally reveals the dark origin of "The Cavalry" aka May's infamous nickname. (Suffice to say, the backstory kicks a lot of ass, literally and emotionally. Kleenex will be needed.) Elsewhere in the episode, Skye - with help from Jiaying - gets a better handle on what exactly her gift is (or isn't)."
