Previously on
"Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D."...
2
00:00:03,698 --> 00:00:06,365
You were dead for... days.
3
00:00:06,367 --> 00:00:08,868
- I wanted to die.
- And we should have let you.
4
00:00:08,870 --> 00:00:12,538
We gave you a pleasant memory
of a beautiful island.
5
00:00:12,540 --> 00:00:15,074
You spent no time at the Academy.
6
00:00:15,076 --> 00:00:18,244
I didn't go to your S.H.I.E.L.D.
Hogwarts or whatever.
7
00:00:18,246 --> 00:00:19,878
And an 0-8-4 is...?
8
00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:22,315
An object of unknown origin.
Kind of like you.
9
00:00:22,317 --> 00:00:24,983
Skye's trying to I.D. the agent
that dropped her off at the orphanage.
10
00:00:24,985 --> 00:00:28,934
- We agreed to protect her from the truth.
- You have to decide why you're here.
11
00:00:28,962 --> 00:00:30,690
If you can't put aside
your personal attachments,
12
00:00:30,692 --> 00:00:32,758
then you shouldn't be here.

14
00:00:41,934 --> 00:00:45,770
I completely blew the question
on Von Neumann's entropy.
15
00:00:45,772 --> 00:00:46,939
Freaking thermodynamics.
16
00:00:46,941 --> 00:00:49,808
[chuckles] Test's over, Callie.
Just let it go.
17
00:00:49,810 --> 00:00:52,477
Yeah, that's easy for you to say.
You probably aced it.
18
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:54,813
What you need is a little distraction.
19
00:00:54,815 --> 00:00:59,551
- This will distract me just fine.
- Well, suit yourself.
20
00:01:04,923 --> 00:01:07,925
Whoo!
21
00:01:07,927 --> 00:01:12,263
Come on, Callie! Live a little!
[laughs]
22
00:01:12,265 --> 00:01:13,931
Girl: What are you waiting for?
23
00:01:13,933 --> 00:01:17,101
[laughs]
Callie, relax!
24
00:01:17,103 --> 00:01:18,583
Girl: Guess, we've earned this.
25
00:01:19,568 --> 00:01:22,273
Come on, have some fun, Callie.
26
00:01:22,275 --> 00:01:24,285
Girl: Come on, take it on!
[laughs]
27
00:01:24,320 --> 00:01:27,277
[cracking]
28
00:01:27,279 --> 00:01:30,180
Guys... get out.
29
00:01:30,182 --> 00:01:33,384
They can't bust us for coming in here!
30
00:01:35,921 --> 00:01:37,855
Get out now!
31
00:01:48,432 --> 00:01:52,135
No! Get it off me!
Aah!
32
00:01:52,137 --> 00:01:53,136
Seth, pull!
33
00:01:53,138 --> 00:01:54,604
I'm trying!
Aah! Aah!
34
00:01:54,606 --> 00:01:57,673
My leg! Get it off me!
35
00:01:57,675 --> 00:01:59,942
[grunting]
36
00:01:59,944 --> 00:02:01,644
Aah!
37
00:02:04,815 --> 00:02:06,749
[breathing heavily]
38
00:02:15,125 --> 00:02:18,127
1x12 - Seeds
39
00:02:33,309 --> 00:02:35,811
Simmons: There is
nothing more unsettling,
40
00:02:35,813 --> 00:02:39,815
being a part of something so
horrible, completely unaware.
41
00:02:39,817 --> 00:02:41,149
The Cadet could have died.
42
00:02:41,151 --> 00:02:43,685
We drew up those concepts years ago.
43
00:02:43,687 --> 00:02:45,854
We didn't know they'd
be applied in that way.
44
00:02:45,856 --> 00:02:48,689
Is this the device they
found in the frozen pool?
45
00:02:48,691 --> 00:02:50,524
Correction ... the
instantly frozen indoor pool.
46
00:02:50,526 --> 00:02:53,594
It seems like it was planted
in the filter days before,
47
00:02:53,596 --> 00:02:55,663
like someone was waiting
for those specific Cadets.
48
00:02:55,665 --> 00:02:57,332
Well, as far as they
can tell, the device
49
00:02:57,334 --> 00:03:00,168
uses a crystalline nucleation
process she designed.
50
00:03:00,170 --> 00:03:01,970
And a delivery mechanism he invented.
51
00:03:01,972 --> 00:03:04,672
That's why we're being asked
to consult on the investigation.
52
00:03:04,674 --> 00:03:07,341
- So we're going to the Academy?
- Science and technology division.
53
00:03:07,343 --> 00:03:09,510
Cadets are pretty shaken
up over what happened.
54
00:03:09,512 --> 00:03:11,912
Agent Weaver asked if you two
could speak to the student body
55
00:03:11,914 --> 00:03:15,916
- about potentiality to calm them down.
- Of course. The talk.
56
00:03:15,918 --> 00:03:18,118
We've all heard the talk.
57
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,053
- I haven't.
- I guess you will.
58
00:03:20,055 --> 00:03:22,789
Well, I've heard a
lot about the Academy.
59
00:03:22,791 --> 00:03:24,591
I'm excited to finally see it.
60
00:03:24,593 --> 00:03:26,893
Me, too.
Never been to Sci-Tech before.
61
00:03:26,895 --> 00:03:29,062
Never? Huh.
62
00:03:29,064 --> 00:03:31,098
The different S.H.I.E.L.D.
academies don't interact?
63
00:03:31,100 --> 00:03:33,800
[scoffs] Ward: Not much.
Academy of communications does,
64
00:03:33,802 --> 00:03:36,569
but they're the biggest and
focused on data analysis.
65
00:03:36,571 --> 00:03:38,070
- It's the easiest to get into.
- Boring.
66
00:03:38,072 --> 00:03:41,007
- That's where you'd be, Skye.
- Thanks.
67
00:03:41,009 --> 00:03:43,275
Ward: Operations is the
most aggressive program.
68
00:03:43,277 --> 00:03:45,612
More people wash out of operations
than the other academies.
69
00:03:45,614 --> 00:03:47,580
So which one's the hardest to get into?
70
00:03:49,550 --> 00:03:53,886
I'm picking up on the rivalry
between sciences and operations.
71
00:03:53,888 --> 00:03:55,421
Are you and Coulson past all that,
72
00:03:55,423 --> 00:03:57,156
or you gonna help Ward
steal their mascot?
73
00:03:57,158 --> 00:03:58,824
We're not going.
After we drop you off,
74
00:03:58,826 --> 00:04:02,328
Coulson and I have other
matters to attend to.
75
00:04:02,330 --> 00:04:04,663
[footsteps depart]
76
00:04:06,566 --> 00:04:08,901
Coulson hasn't come out
of his office in awhile.
77
00:04:08,903 --> 00:04:12,188
- Do you think he's all right?
- We saw him at a low.
78
00:04:12,189 --> 00:04:15,140
It's not easy for anybody.
But Coulson's tough as they come.
79
00:04:15,142 --> 00:04:18,476
He'll be good.
Just give him time.
80
00:04:18,478 --> 00:04:19,811
And while he takes that time,
81
00:04:19,813 --> 00:04:22,014
it's on us to figure out
what's going on at the Academy.
82
00:04:26,785 --> 00:04:28,620
Simmons: This was the SSR facility
83
00:04:28,621 --> 00:04:32,257
before S.H.I.E.L.D. was even founded.
"SSR" stands for ...
84
00:04:32,259 --> 00:04:34,259
Strategic scientific reserve.
Yeah, I know.
85
00:04:34,261 --> 00:04:36,627
Is this where you got all your PHDs?
86
00:04:36,629 --> 00:04:38,963
Oh, no, you need at least
one to get through the door.
87
00:04:38,965 --> 00:04:41,666
Is science and technology
what you imagined, Agent Ward?
88
00:04:41,668 --> 00:04:46,704
Yep ... no uniforms, no rope course,
no defined muscularity on anyone.
89
00:04:46,706 --> 00:04:49,840
No marching in place, no
I.Q.s in double digits.
90
00:04:49,842 --> 00:04:53,444
There they are.
So good to see you.
91
00:04:53,446 --> 00:04:56,113
- You look as lovely as ever.
- I concur.
92
00:04:56,115 --> 00:04:57,648
Thank you.
93
00:04:57,650 --> 00:04:59,483
Agent Ward.
Pleasure to have you, sir.
94
00:04:59,485 --> 00:05:01,885
Agent Weaver.
There's a list of suspects?
95
00:05:01,887 --> 00:05:03,720
Based on the level of
intelligence it would take
96
00:05:03,722 --> 00:05:05,222
to put a device together
like the one we found,
97
00:05:05,224 --> 00:05:07,891
we've narrowed it down to
the top 10% of our Cadets.
98
00:05:07,893 --> 00:05:09,960
I'm worried there's a bad seed.
99
00:05:09,962 --> 00:05:12,463
Ops and sciences have differences,
100
00:05:12,465 --> 00:05:14,798
but both have to be careful
about what we call "bad seeds,"
101
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:16,967
people who want to use the
tools we give them for ...
102
00:05:16,969 --> 00:05:20,269
"Bad seed" isn't a S.H.I.E.L.D. term,
Ward, just a term.
103
00:05:22,039 --> 00:05:23,372
I know you've already
questioned the victim,
104
00:05:23,374 --> 00:05:25,374
but I have a few questions
I'd like to ask him myself.
105
00:05:25,376 --> 00:05:27,043
I'll arrange for you
to talk to Seth Dormer
106
00:05:27,045 --> 00:05:29,846
when he's out of class.
Now, if you'll excuse me,
107
00:05:29,848 --> 00:05:31,180
I'd like to get Agents
Fitz and Simmons settled
108
00:05:31,182 --> 00:05:32,781
into the lecture hall.
109
00:05:34,551 --> 00:05:38,020
Skye: Look at them ...
the popular kids.
110
00:05:38,022 --> 00:05:42,024
- Who knew?
- I did. Come on.
111
00:05:42,026 --> 00:05:43,526
While we have a minute,
112
00:05:43,528 --> 00:05:45,861
I think there's something
you'll want to see.
113
00:05:51,100 --> 00:05:54,837
- Skye: The Wall of valor.
- Ward: So you've read about it?
114
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,172
Every S.H.I.E.L.D.
facility has a memorial
115
00:05:57,174 --> 00:06:00,843
to the agents lost in the line of duty.
116
00:06:00,845 --> 00:06:03,846
S.H.I.E.L.D.'s history can
be traced on walls like this.
117
00:06:03,848 --> 00:06:05,349
Huh.
118
00:06:07,351 --> 00:06:12,354
- "Bucky" Barnes.
- Puts it in perspective ... what we do.
119
00:06:12,356 --> 00:06:16,024
Must make you guys proud ...
all this history.
120
00:06:16,026 --> 00:06:17,892
Just wish I was a part of it.
121
00:06:20,463 --> 00:06:23,297
It's not self-pity, really.
122
00:06:23,299 --> 00:06:25,466
I'm just saying everyone
here has earned this.
123
00:06:25,468 --> 00:06:30,972
They deserve it. I hacked my way in ...
feels like I cheated.
124
00:06:30,974 --> 00:06:35,409
All you need to join is
a dedication to the greater good.
125
00:06:36,979 --> 00:06:39,413
Coulson saw that in you
the moment he met you.
126
00:06:48,456 --> 00:06:50,123
May: [sighs]
127
00:06:52,427 --> 00:06:56,997
- You have got to put that away.
- How can I? You read it.
128
00:06:56,999 --> 00:07:00,667
And you haven't stopped reading it.
129
00:07:00,669 --> 00:07:03,170
I just can't get my head around it.
130
00:07:03,172 --> 00:07:07,473
I remember what happened ...
the pain ...
131
00:07:07,475 --> 00:07:12,645
- but I also remember Tahiti. It's ...
- What's in that file ... it's the truth.
132
00:07:12,647 --> 00:07:13,913
Says who?
133
00:07:13,915 --> 00:07:16,316
- Director Fury.
- If I hadn't asked,
134
00:07:16,318 --> 00:07:19,352
he'd have kept it from
me, kept me from knowing.
135
00:07:19,354 --> 00:07:22,256
And now that you know, you feel better?
136
00:07:22,656 --> 00:07:24,524
Put it away.
137
00:07:26,860 --> 00:07:29,195
[sighs]
138
00:07:29,197 --> 00:07:32,198
You want to tell me why
we're flying to Mexico City?
139
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:34,466
To get your head working
on something else.
140
00:07:34,468 --> 00:07:36,535
I've been looking into
Skye's past, like you asked,
141
00:07:36,537 --> 00:07:39,471
into the agent who dropped
her off at the orphanage.
142
00:07:39,473 --> 00:07:41,941
Agent Avery. She was killed.
143
00:07:41,943 --> 00:07:44,309
But her partner wasn't.
He disappeared.
144
00:07:46,112 --> 00:07:49,115
- Richard Lumley.
- Went off-grid 23 years ago,
145
00:07:49,116 --> 00:07:51,650
- day after Avery was crossed off.
- He's resurfaced?
146
00:07:51,652 --> 00:07:55,554
A few days ago, a Mexican teenager
posted a selfie on his facebook page ...
147
00:07:55,556 --> 00:07:59,224
managed to capture our guy leaving
a grocery store in the background.
148
00:07:59,226 --> 00:08:00,559
If he's good enough to avoid
S.H.I.E.L.D. all these years,
149
00:08:00,561 --> 00:08:02,693
- he'll know.
- And he'll be on the move.
150
00:08:02,695 --> 00:08:04,796
We have a short window to intercept.
151
00:08:04,798 --> 00:08:07,365
- He may have killed Agent Avery.
- Or wanted to avoid the same fate.
152
00:08:07,367 --> 00:08:10,501
Find him, we find out.
How long till we touch down?
153
00:08:10,503 --> 00:08:13,805
40 minutes. I'll gas the car.
154
00:08:16,142 --> 00:08:17,475
Today, we're proud to welcome back
155
00:08:17,477 --> 00:08:19,977
two of S.H.I.E.L.D. Academy's finest,
156
00:08:19,979 --> 00:08:21,979
our youngest graduates to date.
157
00:08:21,981 --> 00:08:25,316
You know their names.
Please join me in welcoming
158
00:08:25,318 --> 00:08:27,985
Agent Leopold Fitz
and Agent Jemma Simmons.
159
00:08:27,987 --> 00:08:31,287
[applause]
160
00:08:33,492 --> 00:08:38,162
Thank you, Agent Weaver.
It's nice to be back.
161
00:08:38,164 --> 00:08:40,831
Unfortunately, it has to be
under these circumstances.
162
00:08:40,833 --> 00:08:43,000
Fitz: If you don't know the
history of S.H.I.E.L.D. by now,
163
00:08:43,002 --> 00:08:45,669
there's no excuse...
164
00:08:45,671 --> 00:08:47,671
unless you fell asleep in
Professor Vaughn's class ...
165
00:08:47,673 --> 00:08:50,440
that's a perfectly acceptable excuse.
166
00:08:50,442 --> 00:08:51,941
[laughter]
167
00:08:51,943 --> 00:08:55,445
Our instinct as scientists
is to move forward,
168
00:08:55,447 --> 00:08:58,782
advance quickly, push the envelope.
169
00:08:58,784 --> 00:09:02,952
But given recent events, it makes
sense to reflect back on our history.
170
00:09:02,954 --> 00:09:04,387
Ward: And you can't think of any reason
171
00:09:04,389 --> 00:09:06,723
a top student would
want to go after you?
172
00:09:06,725 --> 00:09:09,892
No.
Um, the top students are my friends.
173
00:09:09,894 --> 00:09:11,160
It's competitive here,
174
00:09:11,162 --> 00:09:13,629
but we usually don't resort
to knocking each other off.
175
00:09:13,631 --> 00:09:15,764
This isn't operations ... no offense.
176
00:09:15,766 --> 00:09:19,202
None taken. All these names
you would consider friendly?
177
00:09:19,204 --> 00:09:24,891
Well... not Donnie Gill.
I barely know the kid.
178
00:09:24,892 --> 00:09:28,276
- He doesn't talk to anyone.
- And he was at the pool.
179
00:09:28,278 --> 00:09:29,611
Studying, but I don't
think he's the guy.
180
00:09:29,613 --> 00:09:33,549
He just has trouble communicating
with anyone below a 170 I.Q.
181
00:09:33,551 --> 00:09:36,552
And S.H.I.E.L.D. was founded
after the SSR was able to
182
00:09:36,554 --> 00:09:40,222
defeat the nearly indomitable
force known as Hydra.
183
00:09:40,224 --> 00:09:44,092
We tend to forget that
these organizations ...
184
00:09:44,094 --> 00:09:45,593
Hydra, Centipede, A.I.M. ...
185
00:09:45,595 --> 00:09:48,596
were also made up of
extremely brilliant scientists,
186
00:09:48,598 --> 00:09:50,765
men and women who started
187
00:09:50,767 --> 00:09:53,268
with the same unlimited
potential as you or I.
188
00:09:53,270 --> 00:09:56,571
Potential can sometimes be dangerous.
189
00:09:56,573 --> 00:10:01,308
Plutonium has the potential to
power a city... or to be a nuclear bomb.
190
00:10:01,310 --> 00:10:04,178
Simmons: Today, we'd like to share
a few stories from the field
191
00:10:04,180 --> 00:10:06,581
in which we learned this lesson up close
192
00:10:06,583 --> 00:10:09,917
and faced the consequences
when untested technology
193
00:10:09,919 --> 00:10:12,620
or biology lands in the wrong hands.
194
00:10:12,622 --> 00:10:14,955
And don't worry ...
we brought pictures.
195
00:10:14,957 --> 00:10:17,624
[laughter] Oh, god.
196
00:10:17,626 --> 00:10:20,160
Oh, god!
What is this?!
197
00:10:20,162 --> 00:10:21,661
Hey, what's happening to me?!
Help me!
198
00:10:21,663 --> 00:10:22,863
Help me!
Get it off!
199
00:10:22,865 --> 00:10:24,999
Make it stop!
200
00:10:25,001 --> 00:10:28,668
Help me get it off!
No! Make it stop!
201
00:10:30,705 --> 00:10:32,818
[woman screams]
202
00:10:33,335 --> 00:10:35,731
[woman screams]
203
00:10:35,733 --> 00:10:37,733
Simmons: Find exposed skin.
204
00:10:37,735 --> 00:10:39,602
He needs glucose to raise his
body's natural freezing point.
205
00:10:39,604 --> 00:10:41,504
Simmons, I need something
to break the ice.
206
00:10:41,506 --> 00:10:44,673
[crowd murmuring]
207
00:10:47,444 --> 00:10:51,279
- Jemma. Ready?
- Yeah.
208
00:10:52,949 --> 00:10:54,049
Ward: Fitz, talk to me.
209
00:10:54,051 --> 00:10:56,184
Something's doing this to him.
Find it.
210
00:10:59,689 --> 00:11:04,527
- Ward, there it is. Fitz, what now?
- Smash the damn thing!
211
00:11:04,529 --> 00:11:06,561
[cracking]
212
00:11:06,563 --> 00:11:09,631
[groans]
213
00:11:09,633 --> 00:11:10,632
[breathing heavily]
214
00:11:10,634 --> 00:11:12,200
Fitz: It's okay. It's okay.
215
00:11:12,202 --> 00:11:14,801
It's okay. It's okay.
It's over.
216
00:11:14,914 --> 00:11:17,072
[applause]
217
00:11:18,297 --> 00:11:20,775
Who would do this?
218
00:11:20,777 --> 00:11:22,944
I don't want to hear
excuses why it didn't work.
219
00:11:22,946 --> 00:11:24,979
I have people who do that for me.
220
00:11:24,981 --> 00:11:29,784
I just want you to take
care of it before I arrive.
221
00:11:29,786 --> 00:11:35,623
Just keep in mind how much
this will benefit us both, yeah?
222
00:11:38,984 --> 00:11:42,263
Man: Mr. Quinn, plane's
waiting for you, sir.
223
00:11:42,564 --> 00:11:46,067
And you can't think of anyone
here who'd want to hurt you?
224
00:11:46,069 --> 00:11:47,901
I don't know anyone.
225
00:11:47,903 --> 00:11:50,737
Donnie, I'm gonna have you
escorted back to your room.
226
00:11:50,739 --> 00:11:52,906
You get some rest and stay warm.
227
00:11:57,344 --> 00:12:00,847
Sorry I ruined your lecture.
I was really looking forward to it.
228
00:12:00,849 --> 00:12:03,016
Simmons: It's not your fault, Donnie.
229
00:12:04,586 --> 00:12:07,087
No genetic materials or
prints found on the device.
230
00:12:07,089 --> 00:12:08,622
The components are rare and expensive.
231
00:12:08,624 --> 00:12:11,157
Freshman pranks are tradition,
but these are something else.
232
00:12:11,159 --> 00:12:12,959
Attempted murder.
233
00:12:12,961 --> 00:12:14,961
So, Donnie was the
intended target all along?
234
00:12:14,963 --> 00:12:17,763
He have anything in common
with the Cadets at the pool?
235
00:12:17,765 --> 00:12:21,434
- These kids were popular.
Donnie was ... - Not.
236
00:12:21,436 --> 00:12:24,670
Donnie hadn't made any enemies here,
but he hadn't made any friends, either.
237
00:12:24,672 --> 00:12:27,107
He had a hard time
adjusting? How old is he?
238
00:12:27,109 --> 00:12:29,775
18, youngest since you guys.
239
00:12:29,777 --> 00:12:32,878
190 I.Q. and failing out of
high school when we met him.
240
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:34,647
- Probably bored out of his mind.
- Mhm.
241
00:12:34,649 --> 00:12:37,049
If things went well, we were
considering graduating him early
242
00:12:37,051 --> 00:12:38,618
and assigning him to the Sandbox.
243
00:12:38,620 --> 00:12:41,053
Wow.
Well, he would love it there.
244
00:12:41,055 --> 00:12:44,389
But he doesn't like it here,
so I'm afraid he'll wash out.
245
00:12:44,391 --> 00:12:46,791
Ward: Maybe that was the idea.
246
00:12:46,793 --> 00:12:48,727
Agent Weaver, keep working
with investigations ...
247
00:12:48,729 --> 00:12:51,896
- interviewing Cadets, instructors.
- Of course.
248
00:12:51,898 --> 00:12:55,800
- And us?
- Their interviews won't bear fruit.
249
00:12:55,802 --> 00:12:59,371
We teach Cadets to keep secrets.
250
00:12:59,373 --> 00:13:01,205
Where did you guys hang out
251
00:13:01,207 --> 00:13:03,875
when you wanted to get
away from the faculty?
252
00:13:03,877 --> 00:13:06,210
Can we tell someone from operations?
253
00:13:06,212 --> 00:13:10,148
Yes, because we need to
conduct our own investigation.
254
00:13:13,185 --> 00:13:15,854
[horns honking]
255
00:13:15,856 --> 00:13:20,758
[engine shuts off]
256
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:23,927
Coulson: Dario Marquez's dress shop.
257
00:13:23,929 --> 00:13:26,130
Marquez doesn't do the
best papers in town,
258
00:13:26,132 --> 00:13:27,998
but he also doesn't use a computer.
259
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,067
So, if Lumley's gonna make a run for it,
260
00:13:30,069 --> 00:13:32,236
your guess is he might
pass through that door.
261
00:13:32,238 --> 00:13:36,406
It's worth a shot, so we wait.
262
00:13:36,408 --> 00:13:39,743
- Simmons: And when we get there?
- We mingle, low key.
263
00:13:39,745 --> 00:13:41,578
You and Skye get comfortable
with the students ...
264
00:13:41,580 --> 00:13:44,081
see if you can get them gossiping.
Skye looks young enough to blend in.
265
00:13:44,083 --> 00:13:46,784
You're not exactly old man river,
and Fitz looks younger than us.
266
00:13:46,786 --> 00:13:48,285
Time will come when you
won't make fun of me for that.
267
00:13:48,287 --> 00:13:51,020
You'll be jealous.
You'll be jealous, wrinkly old hags.
268
00:13:51,022 --> 00:13:53,956
- I want Fitz to go talk to Donnie.
- Sorry?
269
00:13:53,958 --> 00:13:56,226
Donnie's withdrawn, might
know more than he's letting on.
270
00:13:56,228 --> 00:13:58,228
You're a hero here, Fitz.
He looks up to you.
271
00:13:58,230 --> 00:13:59,462
Go hang out with him.
272
00:13:59,464 --> 00:14:00,963
Even if he has no clue
who might be after him,
273
00:14:00,965 --> 00:14:03,433
- he could use a friend.
- That is a wonderful idea.
274
00:14:03,435 --> 00:14:06,536
Ward has them from time to time.
I'll meet you later.
275
00:14:08,906 --> 00:14:12,909
- What? It's strategic.
- It's adorable.
276
00:14:12,911 --> 00:14:14,410
The Tin Man has a heart after all.
277
00:14:16,479 --> 00:14:20,717
So, where are we going?
[both chuckles]
278
00:14:20,719 --> 00:14:23,752
S.H.I.E.L.D. keeps careful watch
of everything within their walls,
279
00:14:23,754 --> 00:14:25,654
so in the late '60s,
to escape the cameras
280
00:14:25,656 --> 00:14:27,256
and the prying eyes of the faculty,
281
00:14:27,258 --> 00:14:29,592
a few Cadets started sneaking
down to the boiler room
282
00:14:29,594 --> 00:14:32,194
to play cards,
you know, exchange ideas.
283
00:14:32,196 --> 00:14:33,495
Skye: My kind of people.
284
00:14:33,497 --> 00:14:36,164
Some amazing breakthroughs
have come out of here.
285
00:14:36,166 --> 00:14:41,402
- So the tradition lives on.
- Of cramming into the boiler room?
286
00:14:41,404 --> 00:14:42,904
[indistinct conversations]
287
00:14:42,906 --> 00:14:46,908
Well, over the years, we
made a few improvements.
288
00:14:46,910 --> 00:14:50,078
[dance music plays]
289
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:52,881
Do you have one of these at operations?
290
00:14:53,451 --> 00:14:59,420
- No.
- Did not think so.
291
00:14:59,422 --> 00:15:00,855
Drinks are on me.
292
00:15:06,363 --> 00:15:09,697
- Donnie.
- Agent Fitz, sir.
293
00:15:09,699 --> 00:15:12,967
Oh, please. Call me "Fitz."
Mind if I come in?
294
00:15:12,969 --> 00:15:15,903
Yeah ... no.
I mean, no, I don't.
295
00:15:17,472 --> 00:15:21,541
Okay, my room was just
like this, except, um,
296
00:15:21,543 --> 00:15:25,045
um, there was a lot more
laundry on the floor.
297
00:15:25,046 --> 00:15:26,046
[chuckles]
298
00:15:26,882 --> 00:15:28,783
You feeling better?
299
00:15:30,885 --> 00:15:32,386
You know, you shouldn't be afraid
300
00:15:32,388 --> 00:15:34,655
to tell me if you think
someone could be targeting you.
301
00:15:34,657 --> 00:15:37,991
I'm not. It was ... it
was probably just a prank.
302
00:15:37,993 --> 00:15:40,894
- Freshmen get pranked.
- I remember vividly,
303
00:15:40,896 --> 00:15:43,397
but that doesn't mean that every
freshman needs to be thawed.
304
00:15:43,399 --> 00:15:47,633
Is that a design for organic
light-emitting diodes?
305
00:15:47,635 --> 00:15:49,936
- For active camouflage, I'm thinking.
- Hmm.
306
00:15:52,807 --> 00:15:54,240
An ionized air cannon?
307
00:15:55,742 --> 00:15:58,128
- It's so small.
- Well, I was able to double the
308
00:15:58,129 --> 00:16:00,513
- pressurization by making ...
- By making it compact.
309
00:16:00,515 --> 00:16:05,418
Clever. I must say ...
these ideas are way beyond
310
00:16:05,420 --> 00:16:07,219
what I was toying with
in my first few months.
311
00:16:07,221 --> 00:16:10,323
You shouldn't keep these
big ideas to yourself.
312
00:16:10,325 --> 00:16:11,857
You should run them by your instructors.
313
00:16:11,859 --> 00:16:15,795
These aren't my big ideas.
314
00:16:17,744 --> 00:16:22,214
So... say you're gonna
do what this guy did ...
315
00:16:22,216 --> 00:16:27,844
leave S.H.I.E.L.D., go off the grid.
What's your move?
316
00:16:29,055 --> 00:16:34,727
I'd hide in the wheel well of a 747 flight
from Newark to Singapore.
317
00:16:34,729 --> 00:16:36,561
Oxygen, a chute.
318
00:16:36,563 --> 00:16:39,897
The back half of the trip
passes over 3,000 miles of land,
319
00:16:39,899 --> 00:16:43,201
a dozen countries ...
could drop anywhere.
320
00:16:46,605 --> 00:16:49,841
You'd probably head to South America.
321
00:16:49,843 --> 00:16:52,309
- You speak Spanish.
- Vacation Spanish.
322
00:16:52,311 --> 00:16:55,546
Lima, most likely, what
with the growing food scene.
323
00:16:55,548 --> 00:16:58,716
- All right, what's up?
- You tell me.
324
00:16:58,718 --> 00:17:03,020
- You're talking, more than ever.
- 'Cause you're not.
325
00:17:03,022 --> 00:17:04,521
And you suddenly became active
on the Skye investigation?
326
00:17:04,523 --> 00:17:05,823
She's proved herself ...
327
00:17:05,825 --> 00:17:10,494
stepped up in a big way ...
for our team, for you.
328
00:17:10,496 --> 00:17:13,664
Is that it, or is it
just to distract me?
329
00:17:13,666 --> 00:17:16,700
[sighs] Both.
330
00:17:16,702 --> 00:17:19,169
I know you're having a
hard time believing what ...
331
00:17:19,171 --> 00:17:21,938
They changed my memories.
Who's to say they didn't change more?
332
00:17:21,940 --> 00:17:25,776
[sighs] I say.
333
00:17:25,778 --> 00:17:29,712
I know you, Phil,
and I knew you before.
334
00:17:29,714 --> 00:17:31,882
You'd know I'd be the
first to go down that road
335
00:17:31,884 --> 00:17:35,485
if I thought it led somewhere.
336
00:17:35,487 --> 00:17:38,989
Do you believe me, at least?
337
00:17:38,991 --> 00:17:41,824
- Do you ...
- Yes.
338
00:17:41,826 --> 00:17:43,126
Good.
339
00:17:45,829 --> 00:17:50,667
But I'm tired of secrets,
so I'm glad we're here.
340
00:17:50,669 --> 00:17:53,736
We need to root out all the secrets.
341
00:17:57,908 --> 00:17:59,909
Agent Ward and I have
been having sex ...
342
00:17:59,911 --> 00:18:01,677
I got him.
343
00:18:03,079 --> 00:18:04,180
[car door opens]
344
00:18:08,685 --> 00:18:10,652
[indistinct conversations]
345
00:18:13,356 --> 00:18:15,957
He's headed your way.
346
00:18:27,102 --> 00:18:30,872
Looks like he's heading down the alley.
347
00:18:42,584 --> 00:18:43,885
Aah!
348
00:18:43,887 --> 00:18:45,619
[grunting]
349
00:19:07,441 --> 00:19:10,143
[tires screech]
350
00:19:20,888 --> 00:19:23,890
I'm Agent Coulson, with S.H.I.E.L.D.
351
00:19:23,892 --> 00:19:26,158
Oh, thank god.
352
00:19:27,628 --> 00:19:30,797
It's about the baby girl, isn't it?
353
00:19:33,348 --> 00:19:35,481
Cyanide?
354
00:19:35,483 --> 00:19:37,483
What did you think we
were gonna do to you?
355
00:19:37,485 --> 00:19:41,287
- What they did to her.
- Agent Linda Avery?
356
00:19:41,289 --> 00:19:43,322
She wasn't the first one to die.
357
00:19:43,324 --> 00:19:46,692
We were headed into the
Hunan province of China.
358
00:19:46,694 --> 00:19:50,729
A senior agent had
called in an 0-8-4.
359
00:19:50,731 --> 00:19:55,067
An object of unknown origin.
We've dealt with those before.
360
00:19:55,069 --> 00:19:59,038
He said the entire village had
died trying to protect this one.
361
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,541
Avery and I were just
fresh out of the Academy.
362
00:20:01,543 --> 00:20:04,476
And there was five of us
just running the back end,
363
00:20:04,478 --> 00:20:06,712
until we lost communication
with the first team.
364
00:20:06,714 --> 00:20:09,347
We went searching.
365
00:20:09,349 --> 00:20:11,750
We found the senior
agent under a bridge.
366
00:20:11,752 --> 00:20:14,252
He ... he managed to escape
with a gunshot wound to the neck,
367
00:20:14,254 --> 00:20:19,824
but he bled out.
He was still holding on to the 0-8-4.
368
00:20:19,826 --> 00:20:22,661
[scoffs]
369
00:20:22,663 --> 00:20:25,330
Poor thing was covered in blood.
370
00:20:25,332 --> 00:20:28,833
We thought she was dead, too,
371
00:20:29,835 --> 00:20:34,172
but sh... she was just asleep
in the dead agent's arms.
372
00:20:34,174 --> 00:20:39,077
I ... the baby?
The girl was the 0-8-4?
373
00:20:39,079 --> 00:20:42,080
If she had powers or something,
we never witnessed it.
374
00:20:42,082 --> 00:20:46,751
The five of us helicoptered
the kid off, headed home.
375
00:20:46,753 --> 00:20:50,254
After we landed, we
started getting crossed off.
376
00:20:50,256 --> 00:20:53,190
- Executed?
- Tortured, heads bashed in.
377
00:20:53,192 --> 00:20:54,525
And when it came down to Avery and I,
378
00:20:54,527 --> 00:20:56,527
we realized the only
way to keep our people
379
00:20:56,529 --> 00:20:58,596
and the kid from being hunted ...
380
00:20:58,598 --> 00:21:02,233
- Was to erase her from existence.
- Avery was smart.
381
00:21:02,235 --> 00:21:06,203
She used the lead agent's credentials
to fake a level 8 clearance,
382
00:21:06,205 --> 00:21:11,108
she set up a nearly invisible protocol.
The foster system was ordered
383
00:21:11,110 --> 00:21:13,576
to move the child
around every few months.
384
00:21:13,578 --> 00:21:16,713
- But they still got to Avery.
- She died protecting that secret.
385
00:21:16,715 --> 00:21:18,373
- And you left town.
- Oh, I left everything.
386
00:21:18,408 --> 00:21:21,451
I mean, whoever killed that kid's family
387
00:21:21,453 --> 00:21:24,654
and all those agents was
a force to be reckoned with.
388
00:21:24,656 --> 00:21:26,656
- And that girl ...
- Don't tell me a damn thing about her.
389
00:21:26,658 --> 00:21:29,091
I don't want to know.
You understand?
390
00:21:29,093 --> 00:21:33,129
Just tell me ... is she okay?
391
00:21:33,131 --> 00:21:38,067
- She's safe.
- Then maybe it was all worth it.
392
00:21:39,487 --> 00:21:42,104
- You taking me in?
- Yeah.
393
00:21:42,106 --> 00:21:44,273
No.
394
00:21:44,275 --> 00:21:48,243
I'm not sure S.H.I.E.L.D. is the
safest place for you right now.
395
00:21:48,945 --> 00:21:52,947
We'll get in the air and drop
you somewhere along the route.
396
00:21:52,949 --> 00:21:54,283
Thank you.
397
00:21:59,455 --> 00:22:05,359
Bit of advice ... stop digging and
stay the hell away from that girl.
398
00:22:05,361 --> 00:22:08,863
'Cause wherever she goes, death follows.
399
00:22:13,535 --> 00:22:18,206
It's best no one knows about this,
for Skye's safety and for ours.
400
00:22:18,208 --> 00:22:21,875
You can never tell her.
401
00:22:21,877 --> 00:22:23,877
[dance music plays]
402
00:22:27,549 --> 00:22:31,218
- Bartender seemed chatty.
- He's in computer sciences.
403
00:22:31,220 --> 00:22:34,355
Didn't take long to convince
him I was a level 7 CS operative.
404
00:22:34,357 --> 00:22:38,625
And guess where I'm
stationed ... the Sandbox.
405
00:22:38,627 --> 00:22:40,961
- Good thinking.
- I asked if any of the Cadets
406
00:22:40,963 --> 00:22:43,496
had hopes on getting assigned there.
407
00:22:43,498 --> 00:22:46,800
Behind me ... the curls.
408
00:22:46,802 --> 00:22:49,469
Callie Hannigan ... ambitious,
409
00:22:49,471 --> 00:22:51,871
gunned hard for getting
assigned to the Sandbox.
410
00:22:51,873 --> 00:22:57,076
And apparently, word's gotten
around she just lost the top spot.
411
00:22:57,078 --> 00:23:00,613
- She was at the pool.
- But didn't want to go in.
412
00:23:03,684 --> 00:23:07,115
Fitz: A battery that
carries a terawatt of energy?
413
00:23:07,150 --> 00:23:11,057
- This is amazing.
- Would be if it worked.
414
00:23:11,059 --> 00:23:14,160
I'm ... I'm close.
I've built some quarter scale,
415
00:23:14,162 --> 00:23:15,494
and they would work at that size,
416
00:23:15,496 --> 00:23:17,330
but the beat increases at
a 4-to-1 ratio with scale.
417
00:23:17,332 --> 00:23:18,697
And it melts down.
418
00:23:21,335 --> 00:23:23,669
Why not use oxygen ...
419
00:23:23,671 --> 00:23:25,571
you know, breathe it
in from the outside?
420
00:23:25,573 --> 00:23:27,939
Sure, it's not gonna react
as well with the lithium ion,
421
00:23:27,941 --> 00:23:29,842
but the cooling effect
would surely make up
422
00:23:29,844 --> 00:23:31,009
for that discrepancy.
423
00:23:33,045 --> 00:23:36,081
- No?
- Holy crap.
424
00:23:36,083 --> 00:23:39,084
- I mean, it's just an idea.
- That's insane.
425
00:23:39,086 --> 00:23:41,719
Uh, but you should show it to
Agent Weaver before you test it.
426
00:23:41,721 --> 00:23:43,889
You have no idea how
powerful this thing could be.
427
00:23:43,891 --> 00:23:47,392
Of course.
Wow. I'm sorry.
428
00:23:47,394 --> 00:23:48,927
That ... that was awesome.
429
00:23:48,929 --> 00:23:50,595
It's true what the other guys say ...
430
00:23:50,597 --> 00:23:52,397
you are the smartest
person to come through here.
431
00:23:52,399 --> 00:23:55,200
Is that what they say?
Yeah?
432
00:23:55,202 --> 00:23:57,702
Well, Simmons is probably
smarter, technically,
433
00:23:57,704 --> 00:24:01,406
but that's because she likes
homework more than life itself.
434
00:24:01,408 --> 00:24:06,577
Nice to have someone to talk
shop with all the time...
435
00:24:06,579 --> 00:24:09,380
or to just plain talk to.
436
00:24:09,382 --> 00:24:13,484
You know, um, I didn't like it
here at the Academy at first.
437
00:24:15,586 --> 00:24:18,088
- You didn't?
- No.
438
00:24:18,090 --> 00:24:22,426
I was shy, a bit of a loner.
My Mum did her best at home, but
439
00:24:22,428 --> 00:24:27,331
I may as well have been speaking
Japanese when I talked electronics...
440
00:24:28,333 --> 00:24:31,802
- So I kept things to myself.
- Me, too.
441
00:24:31,804 --> 00:24:34,137
The kids in my hometown
wouldn't talk to me.
442
00:24:34,139 --> 00:24:36,973
And when S.H.I.E.L.D.
told my Dad I was gifted,
443
00:24:36,975 --> 00:24:40,977
- He said, "at what?"
- [chuckles] Yeah.
444
00:24:40,979 --> 00:24:43,313
Well, hang in there.
You'll find a friend here.
445
00:24:43,315 --> 00:24:47,116
Actually, I'm off to
meet the rest of the team
446
00:24:47,118 --> 00:24:51,955
at the boiler room...
if you'd like to join.
447
00:24:51,957 --> 00:24:53,789
Uh, maybe later.
448
00:24:53,791 --> 00:24:56,405
I'm gonna try to draw
up some of those changes.
449
00:24:57,527 --> 00:25:02,598
- Later it is.
- And... thanks.
450
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:06,469
No problem.
451
00:25:08,672 --> 00:25:11,139
- Not a bad shot.
- You mean for a girl.
452
00:25:11,141 --> 00:25:13,509
For anybody.
453
00:25:13,511 --> 00:25:16,345
Elastic collision equations,
contact point geometry,
454
00:25:16,347 --> 00:25:21,183
and practice.
So, why is a guy from operations
455
00:25:21,185 --> 00:25:23,251
hanging out in the boiler room, anyway?
456
00:25:26,755 --> 00:25:29,924
Looking for the smartest mind
you have here to duck out,
457
00:25:29,926 --> 00:25:33,695
join my top shadow unit.
Is that you?
458
00:25:33,697 --> 00:25:36,731
Could be. Shadow unit doing what?
459
00:25:36,733 --> 00:25:41,536
I've said too much already,
but that tech in the lecture hall ...
460
00:25:41,538 --> 00:25:44,138
it was impressive.
461
00:25:44,140 --> 00:25:45,540
Whoever built that tech ...
462
00:25:45,542 --> 00:25:48,209
I could see them moving
to level 6 within the year.
463
00:25:48,211 --> 00:25:51,813
Even though
Donnie and Seth were hurt?
464
00:25:51,815 --> 00:25:53,680
The boys survived.
465
00:25:53,682 --> 00:25:57,684
Yeah, probably the best thing
that's happened to them all year.
466
00:26:00,755 --> 00:26:02,856
Why don't you tell me
what you meant by that?
467
00:26:02,858 --> 00:26:05,893
And I'll not tell Agent
Weaver how eager you were
468
00:26:05,895 --> 00:26:08,029
to jump rank over at operations.
469
00:26:08,031 --> 00:26:11,698
I'm just saying they
got to meet Agent Fitz.
470
00:26:11,700 --> 00:26:13,934
[chuckling] They've been
talking about it for weeks.
471
00:26:13,936 --> 00:26:16,937
Weeks? We just came here...
472
00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:23,944
- Talking about it to whom?
- Each other.
473
00:26:32,686 --> 00:26:34,687
[whirring]
474
00:26:39,427 --> 00:26:42,495
Jemma, please don't tell me
you've left the boiler room already.
475
00:26:42,497 --> 00:26:43,796
Fitz, they staged the attacks.
476
00:26:43,798 --> 00:26:46,513
- Well, that's nonsense. Why?
- To lure us to the Academy
477
00:26:46,548 --> 00:26:48,034
and to take them off
our radar as suspects.
478
00:26:48,036 --> 00:26:49,635
You need to get out of
there. He's after you.
479
00:26:49,637 --> 00:26:51,437
Relax. I'm out.
You're overreacting.
480
00:26:51,439 --> 00:26:54,406
He's just a lonely kid.
We had a nice little hang session.
481
00:26:54,408 --> 00:26:58,578
I actually helped him solve his...
power problem.
482
00:27:00,380 --> 00:27:01,913
[sighs]
483
00:27:04,617 --> 00:27:06,285
Oh, no.
484
00:27:06,287 --> 00:27:08,887
That's what you're trying to power ...
a bigger version of the ice machine?
485
00:27:08,889 --> 00:27:10,655
You weren't supposed to see this.
486
00:27:10,657 --> 00:27:15,090
This is very, very dangerous, okay?
You can't have this here.
487
00:27:15,125 --> 00:27:17,583
We have to turn it in to Agent Weaver.
488
00:27:17,663 --> 00:27:20,073
You weren't supposed to see this.
489
00:27:22,969 --> 00:27:25,031
We need to go.
490
00:27:25,728 --> 00:27:27,545
Come on!
491
00:27:31,233 --> 00:27:34,034
[sighs]
492
00:27:34,036 --> 00:27:36,403
- How could I have been so stupid?
- Fitz, will you stop?
493
00:27:36,405 --> 00:27:39,239
- I'm sorry, sir. It's my fault.
- Any word on the missing Cadets?
494
00:27:39,241 --> 00:27:41,641
Ward's coordinating the search
effort with Agent Weaver.
495
00:27:41,643 --> 00:27:44,177
They've set up a perimeter and
are going building to building.
496
00:27:44,179 --> 00:27:45,512
Where did you guys go?
497
00:27:45,514 --> 00:27:47,146
- We were trying to reach you.
- Not now.
498
00:27:47,148 --> 00:27:49,783
- How dangerous are they?
- Extremely dangerous.
499
00:27:49,785 --> 00:27:52,618
This device turns any moisture
around it to ice very rapidly,
500
00:27:52,620 --> 00:27:53,987
at a great range.
501
00:27:53,989 --> 00:27:57,257
But Donnie's a good kid ...
just felt isolated.
502
00:27:57,259 --> 00:27:59,259
Seth must have befriended
him to manipulate him,
503
00:27:59,261 --> 00:28:01,694
using him to finish the ...
the product.
504
00:28:01,696 --> 00:28:03,029
Product?
505
00:28:03,031 --> 00:28:04,197
[sighs]
506
00:28:04,199 --> 00:28:06,366
Okay, I think they have a backer.
507
00:28:06,368 --> 00:28:09,702
The device ... the components
are incredibly rare and expensive,
508
00:28:09,704 --> 00:28:12,237
nothing either of them could find
on the open market themselves.
509
00:28:12,239 --> 00:28:15,040
If the parts are that rare,
we can trace the purchases.
510
00:28:15,042 --> 00:28:17,876
Sometimes, it's not a bad seed,
just a bad influence.
511
00:28:17,878 --> 00:28:19,378
Let's go.
512
00:28:19,380 --> 00:28:21,947
No, no. No, that's not the issue.
513
00:28:21,982 --> 00:28:24,182
Look, Donnie and I have
the device ready to sell,
514
00:28:24,184 --> 00:28:26,418
a-and we solved the power problem,
515
00:28:26,420 --> 00:28:28,720
but, uh, look, we ... we ...
we ran into some trouble.
516
00:28:28,722 --> 00:28:31,989
- S.H.I.E.L.D.'s looking for us now.
- Seth, what did I say
517
00:28:31,991 --> 00:28:34,058
was the most important
aspect of this deal?
518
00:28:34,060 --> 00:28:35,560
That nobody know about it.
519
00:28:35,562 --> 00:28:39,063
Right. Well, now the
deal's gonna have to change.
520
00:28:39,065 --> 00:28:41,566
Skye: We were worried
about bad influences?
521
00:28:41,568 --> 00:28:45,036
- He's the worst there is.
- Ian Quinn. You gotta be kidding.
522
00:28:45,038 --> 00:28:46,570
Fitz: Thermopile radiation sensors.
523
00:28:46,572 --> 00:28:49,673
Shipped to Seth's father,
who's a lawyer for Quinn worldwide.
524
00:28:49,675 --> 00:28:51,575
Quinn's buying their technology.
525
00:28:51,577 --> 00:28:54,645
Simmons: [sighs] What a sleaze.
The Cadets have no idea he's a criminal.
526
00:28:54,647 --> 00:28:57,315
- To them, he's just a venture capitalist.
- This is Quinn's M.O.
527
00:28:57,317 --> 00:29:00,651
He finds young talent and
he takes advantage, right?
528
00:29:00,653 --> 00:29:03,487
- Hello?
- Contact Ward and Agent Weaver.
529
00:29:03,489 --> 00:29:05,656
Have them widen their
search to include Ian Quinn.
530
00:29:05,658 --> 00:29:06,957
[sighs]
531
00:29:06,959 --> 00:29:11,762
- Hey, can I talk to you for a second?
- I have to brief May.
532
00:29:11,764 --> 00:29:15,999
- Just two seconds ... that's all.
- Yeah.
533
00:29:18,402 --> 00:29:20,670
This is an unfortunate situation
you've gotten us into, Seth.
534
00:29:20,672 --> 00:29:22,038
Where are you?
535
00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:24,607
We're ... we're hiding at a parking
garage near the Academy.
536
00:29:24,609 --> 00:29:26,409
There's checkpoints set up all around.
537
00:29:26,411 --> 00:29:28,818
- We're boxed in.
- It looks like I'll be turning around.
538
00:29:28,853 --> 00:29:30,613
Sorry we couldn't do business.
539
00:29:30,615 --> 00:29:32,482
No, no, wait!
M-Mr. Quinn, please.
540
00:29:32,484 --> 00:29:34,150
Can you send a chopper or
something to come and get us?
541
00:29:34,152 --> 00:29:36,318
Look, believe me ... it's worth it.
542
00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:40,222
- Prove it, Seth.
- What do you mean?
543
00:29:40,224 --> 00:29:41,502
A demonstration ...
544
00:29:41,503 --> 00:29:45,995
I want to see what I'm paying for in
action, right there at S.H.I.E.L.D.
545
00:29:45,997 --> 00:29:50,533
- Then you'll come and get us?
- I wouldn't be able to resist.
546
00:29:50,535 --> 00:29:55,204
[sighs] The deal's a no-go. Let's
turn around, go back to the Seychelles.
547
00:29:55,206 --> 00:29:57,506
- You copy that, sir.
- Darling, can you freshen this up?
548
00:29:57,508 --> 00:29:58,807
Ready for this, Donnie?
549
00:30:00,317 --> 00:30:03,212
Hey. We've come this far.
550
00:30:03,214 --> 00:30:09,050
- Maybe it's too far.
- [sighs] We're in this together ...
551
00:30:09,052 --> 00:30:11,820
you and me against the world, right?
552
00:30:11,822 --> 00:30:13,321
How many times have we
said we want a chance
553
00:30:13,323 --> 00:30:15,957
to do something incredible?
554
00:30:15,959 --> 00:30:20,194
Well, this is it,
and it comes with a ton of money.
555
00:30:20,196 --> 00:30:23,999
Come on. Say something.
556
00:30:24,001 --> 00:30:26,834
I'm ... I'm nervous.
557
00:30:26,836 --> 00:30:31,339
The ... the prototypes are harmless,
burn out in minutes, but this?
558
00:30:31,341 --> 00:30:33,508
We haven't run virtual simulations.
559
00:30:33,510 --> 00:30:37,311
At this size, with the new power
source, it's not ... it's not safe.
560
00:30:37,313 --> 00:30:39,514
Donnie, you need to grow a pair.
561
00:30:39,516 --> 00:30:42,382
Now, you can't bail on me now.
562
00:30:42,384 --> 00:30:45,485
We have one chance to impress Mr.
Quinn, and now he's our only way out.
563
00:30:45,487 --> 00:30:48,722
We can't turn back after
what we did back there.
564
00:30:48,724 --> 00:30:50,758
What ... what ... what you did.
565
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:54,227
- You knocked Agent Fitz unconscious.
- He found us out.
566
00:30:54,229 --> 00:30:57,831
And it was your idea to draw him here
to fix your damn power source.
567
00:31:00,833 --> 00:31:06,139
Our plan has worked so far,
Donnie, and so will this.
568
00:31:10,378 --> 00:31:11,711
[whirring]
569
00:31:11,713 --> 00:31:12,845
[beep]
570
00:31:23,290 --> 00:31:26,960
W-what happened?
I-is it a dud?
571
00:31:26,962 --> 00:31:30,296
I-I don't ... I don't ... I don't know.
572
00:31:32,365 --> 00:31:34,533
Ever since you got back
from who knows where,
573
00:31:34,535 --> 00:31:36,102
you won't even look at me.
574
00:31:36,104 --> 00:31:38,637
And I know things have
been heavy right now,
575
00:31:38,639 --> 00:31:42,946
but... did I do something wrong?
576
00:31:43,311 --> 00:31:45,644
No.
577
00:31:47,647 --> 00:31:49,314
I did.
578
00:31:49,316 --> 00:31:50,749
[sighs]
579
00:31:50,751 --> 00:31:53,384
Ian Quinn's not the only one
who manipulates people, Skye.
580
00:31:53,386 --> 00:31:57,489
We do it all the time ...
actually teach it at the Academy.
581
00:31:57,491 --> 00:32:00,826
- It's our trade.
- What are you talking about?
582
00:32:00,828 --> 00:32:03,095
I've been keeping something from you.
583
00:32:03,097 --> 00:32:08,466
But recently, I realized
I had no right to do that.
584
00:32:10,306 --> 00:32:12,555
You lied to me.
585
00:32:12,590 --> 00:32:16,474
Agent May and I went down to
Mexico City to talk to somebody ...
586
00:32:16,476 --> 00:32:20,044
somebody who knows
where you came from.
587
00:32:24,582 --> 00:32:30,921
- Tell me.
- When we started this, I warned you...
588
00:32:30,923 --> 00:32:35,259
- that you might not like what you learn.
- And I told you...
589
00:32:38,263 --> 00:32:42,266
that it can't be worse
than what I have imagined.
590
00:32:44,435 --> 00:32:45,935
It is.
591
00:32:48,273 --> 00:32:53,610
The agent who dropped you at
St. Agnes was not your mother,
592
00:32:53,612 --> 00:32:56,345
but she was killed
trying to protect you.
593
00:32:57,875 --> 00:33:04,353
24 years ago, an entire S.H.I.E.L.D.
team in a small village...
594
00:33:04,355 --> 00:33:10,096
was massacred...
in attempt to secure you.
595
00:33:10,097 --> 00:33:12,097
[music]
596
00:33:52,568 --> 00:33:54,569
[wind rushing]
597
00:34:02,044 --> 00:34:04,345
[thunder crashing]
598
00:34:11,720 --> 00:34:15,456
I'll be damned! We did it!
It worked!
599
00:34:31,506 --> 00:34:33,273
I did it.
600
00:34:34,993 --> 00:34:38,695
Seth: The ice stopped.
So it's ending?
601
00:34:38,697 --> 00:34:41,931
Donnie: No. It's just beginning.
602
00:34:41,933 --> 00:34:44,601
We're in the eye of the storm.
603
00:34:44,603 --> 00:34:47,269
A storm?
But crystalline nucleation
604
00:34:47,271 --> 00:34:50,172
- should only create ice around the ...
- It did...
605
00:34:50,174 --> 00:34:53,942
up there.
We seeded the clouds.
606
00:34:53,944 --> 00:34:55,777
In the most effective
way in history, Seth.
607
00:34:55,779 --> 00:34:56,945
[thunder rumbling]
608
00:34:56,947 --> 00:35:01,517
- We created a superstorm.
- He said he wanted a demonstration.
609
00:35:03,085 --> 00:35:06,454
- What are you doing?!
- I have to try to reverse the process.
610
00:35:06,456 --> 00:35:07,756
Look, Quinn specifically said
he needed a working apparatus
611
00:35:07,758 --> 00:35:09,124
to come and pick us up.
612
00:35:09,126 --> 00:35:12,593
All the money in the world
won't matter if we're dead.
613
00:35:13,796 --> 00:35:15,564
Please. Please help me.
614
00:35:16,866 --> 00:35:17,966
Coulson: How do we stop it?
615
00:35:17,968 --> 00:35:20,101
We can't stop it.
They're in real trouble.
616
00:35:20,103 --> 00:35:22,704
- Where is the device?
- Most likely right there ...
617
00:35:22,705 --> 00:35:23,871
dead center of the storm.
618
00:35:23,873 --> 00:35:25,873
Coulson: We've got to
get Donnie out of there.
619
00:35:25,875 --> 00:35:27,308
Ward, how are things on the ground?
620
00:35:27,310 --> 00:35:29,710
We've got most everyone
safe in the boiler room.
621
00:35:29,712 --> 00:35:32,514
Everybody, move back!
Make some space!
622
00:35:32,516 --> 00:35:33,748
How bad is this gonna get?
623
00:35:33,750 --> 00:35:36,551
Bad. Can you reach the
North campus parking garage?
624
00:35:36,553 --> 00:35:38,352
We think Donnie Gill and his device
625
00:35:38,354 --> 00:35:40,354
may be trapped in the
center of the storm.
626
00:35:40,356 --> 00:35:44,025
That's not far from where I am.
I can get there.
627
00:35:44,027 --> 00:35:46,027
[wind rushing]
628
00:35:48,797 --> 00:35:50,965
Yeah, I can't get there.
629
00:35:50,967 --> 00:35:54,201
Is there any other way to get to Donnie?
Think fast, people.
630
00:35:54,203 --> 00:35:56,569
I know one way.
631
00:36:04,179 --> 00:36:06,346
Hold on tight.
632
00:36:06,348 --> 00:36:08,348
[thunder crashing]
633
00:36:30,036 --> 00:36:31,804
[electricity crackling]
634
00:36:37,544 --> 00:36:40,580
Seth, hold the barium hydroxide
chamber in place!
635
00:36:40,582 --> 00:36:43,916
- Okay!
- Hold on!
636
00:36:43,918 --> 00:36:46,403
Okay, that should do it.
Now take ...
637
00:36:46,434 --> 00:36:50,921
[electricity crackling]
[screams]
638
00:36:51,792 --> 00:36:53,191
Aah.
639
00:36:55,529 --> 00:36:58,196
Seth!
640
00:36:59,832 --> 00:37:04,102
Seth? We're gonna have
to try to get underground,
641
00:37:04,104 --> 00:37:05,970
ride it out till the storm passes.
642
00:37:05,972 --> 00:37:10,442
Hey, Seth.
Seth! Hey, hey, Seth.
643
00:37:10,444 --> 00:37:11,943
Seth, can you hear me?
644
00:37:11,945 --> 00:37:13,211
[wind rushing]
645
00:37:16,749 --> 00:37:18,750
[whirring]
646
00:37:26,824 --> 00:37:31,928
He's been hurt!
Please, you need to help him!
647
00:37:35,767 --> 00:37:38,269
Simmons: He's in cardiac arrest!
Skye, blanket for his head!
648
00:37:38,271 --> 00:37:41,104
Lay him down here!
Sir, I need the A.E.D.!
649
00:37:41,106 --> 00:37:43,817
Fitz, oxygen.
0.4 millimeters of epinephrine.
650
00:37:44,034 --> 00:37:46,473
Fitz: I got it.
651
00:37:46,508 --> 00:37:48,411
[thunder rumbling]
652
00:38:00,374 --> 00:38:02,342
Get ready to clear.
653
00:38:02,344 --> 00:38:03,577
- Charging.
- Aah!
654
00:38:03,579 --> 00:38:05,678
Get back!
[electricity charging]
655
00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:08,848
And clear!
Pulse?
656
00:38:08,850 --> 00:38:10,683
- Nothing.
- Charging.
657
00:38:10,685 --> 00:38:13,386
[electricity charging]
658
00:38:13,388 --> 00:38:15,255
Clear.
659
00:38:15,257 --> 00:38:18,058
- Pulse?
- Coulson: No.
660
00:38:18,060 --> 00:38:21,961
- Charging.
- He's gone.
661
00:38:21,963 --> 00:38:23,128
[breathing heavily]
662
00:38:27,333 --> 00:38:28,701
No, Seth.
663
00:38:30,370 --> 00:38:32,839
Seth! Seth!!
664
00:38:35,408 --> 00:38:38,610
Come on, no!
665
00:38:38,612 --> 00:38:43,782
No.
Don't go.
666
00:38:46,086 --> 00:38:47,419
No.
667
00:39:03,268 --> 00:39:06,270
Donnie, I wanted to wish you
good luck. And I'm very sorry.
668
00:39:06,272 --> 00:39:11,275
Don't say you're sorry.
My only friend is dead because of me.
669
00:39:11,277 --> 00:39:15,279
- I don't know what else to say.
- Then don't say anything.
670
00:39:20,685 --> 00:39:23,021
May: What will happen to him?
671
00:39:23,023 --> 00:39:27,190
They're moving him to the Sandbox,
but not as a researcher.
672
00:39:27,192 --> 00:39:28,726
They want to keep an eye on him.
673
00:39:33,164 --> 00:39:39,036
- Did, uh, you hear what I said in Mexico?
- What, specifically?
674
00:39:40,048 --> 00:39:44,307
- A-about Ward and me, um...
- Yeah, I heard.
675
00:39:46,144 --> 00:39:49,979
[scoffs] I trust you
know what you're doing,
676
00:39:49,981 --> 00:39:53,250
- and if it's a problem...
- I'll end it.
677
00:39:59,457 --> 00:40:03,626
Skye requested a moment alone on campus.
678
00:40:03,628 --> 00:40:06,462
- You told her, didn't you?
- I had to.
679
00:40:06,464 --> 00:40:08,865
It must have destroyed
her to hear all that.
680
00:40:08,867 --> 00:40:16,172
That's the thing about Skye.
What I told her shattered her world.
681
00:40:16,174 --> 00:40:19,775
Her lifelong search led
to stories of murder,
682
00:40:19,777 --> 00:40:22,978
and now it's too difficult to continue.
683
00:40:22,980 --> 00:40:27,483
Her search is over.
Her story ends here.
684
00:40:27,485 --> 00:40:31,253
- But you know what she said?
- Tell me.
685
00:40:31,255 --> 00:40:36,324
She said "no" ...
her story started here.
686
00:40:36,326 --> 00:40:39,327
Her whole life, she
thought she wasn't wanted,
687
00:40:39,329 --> 00:40:42,497
that she didn't belong,
that every family that took her in
688
00:40:42,499 --> 00:40:45,000
didn't want her to stay, didn't care.
689
00:40:45,002 --> 00:40:49,004
But all that time, it was
S.H.I.E.L.D. protecting her,
690
00:40:49,006 --> 00:40:50,838
looking after her.
691
00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:53,508
That's what she took
away from the story ...
692
00:40:53,510 --> 00:40:56,877
not the family she'll never have
but the one she's always had.
693
00:40:56,879 --> 00:40:59,414
Here I am, telling her something
694
00:40:59,416 --> 00:41:02,517
that could destroy
her faith in humanity.
695
00:41:02,519 --> 00:41:06,687
And somehow, she manages to
repair a little piece of mine.
696
00:41:06,689 --> 00:41:11,692
The world is full of evil
and lies and pain and death,
697
00:41:11,694 --> 00:41:15,529
and you can't hide from it...
you can only face it.
698
00:41:15,531 --> 00:41:22,969
The question is, when you do,
how do you respond?
699
00:41:22,971 --> 00:41:26,140
Who do you become?
700
00:41:26,142 --> 00:41:28,142
[cracking]
701
00:41:35,049 --> 00:41:37,288
Coulson: We'll return in a moment.
702
00:41:37,745 --> 00:41:39,445
[telephone rings, clicks]
703
00:41:39,447 --> 00:41:41,914
Quinn: Seth, I've gotta say...
you have exceeded my expectations.
704
00:41:41,916 --> 00:41:43,216
Coulson: We're on to you.
705
00:41:43,618 --> 00:41:45,617
Who is this?
706
00:41:45,619 --> 00:41:47,518
Agent Phil Coulson with S.H.I.E.L.D.
707
00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:49,020
We've never actually met, but
708
00:41:49,022 --> 00:41:52,190
I'm familiar with your
work ... all of it.
709
00:41:52,192 --> 00:41:54,692
So, this is a "getting to know you" call?
710
00:41:54,694 --> 00:41:58,797
No, just a message
that the first time your aircraft drifts
711
00:41:58,799 --> 00:42:00,632
over any country allied
with S.H.I.E.L.D.,
712
00:42:00,634 --> 00:42:02,400
we will shoot you out of the sky.
713
00:42:02,402 --> 00:42:07,739
So this is a courtesy call.
Well, thank you, Agent Coulson.
714
00:42:07,741 --> 00:42:10,708
And I have a message for you.
715
00:42:10,910 --> 00:42:13,811
The Clairvoyant told me to say hello.
716
00:42:18,447 --> 00:42:21,345
