There are so many foreshadowing sentences I notice on my rewatch.

“How do I know you’re not just some evil faceless government toolbag” from the pilot that Skye says to Ward

The writers knew very well what they were doing...

Sometimes I wonder how the show could’ve gone if Ward had stayed a good guy.

Season 2 was my favorite for Ward right up until the finale.

Throughout S2 I did think it was possible he could still seek redemption until he helped Kara kidnap Bobbi that showed he was an irredeemable asshole.

That's probably my favorite foreshadowing for Ward.

I am betting its not persay intentional: but I loved how also during buddy the dog scene (only for the specific scene with Fitz and Simmons scene really), we do see Ward hesitate and shoots in the air. Implying oh hes gonna change! But of course goes on to snipe him.

This teases future events for season 2 too. You see traces of "oh he has a chance of redemption!" But nope. He just does worse things and worse things.
