Previously on "Marvel's Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D."...
if you're the director of S.H.I.E.L.D.,
I don't want any part in it.
I'm leaving.
Bobbi, Coulson wants us to scout ahead.
You sure about those coordinates?
Kara.
I had another vision.
S.H.I.E.L.D.... they're coming.
We'd like to return someone of interest to you.
We found these vials on him, ma'am.
What are these?
Beats me.
I know that you were separated from your daughter.
I thought that that might belong to her.
You're nothing like me, like us.
You'll get everyone killed.
Mom!
This this is war.
Mom!
What happened?
Gonzales... he... he said that we were...
That inhumans should be exterminated.
He had a gun.
No, stay with me, please.
Gordon will take care of him.
Get everyone to safety.
Everyone, this way!
Let me take a look at that.
S.H.I.E.L.D.'s done enough.
We have our own doctors. I'll be fine in time.
Right now we have more pressing concerns.
You should get out of here.
What about you?
I...
Come on.
Have you had any contact with Bobbi?
Her quinjet still hasn't arrived,
and she's not answering communications.
How's Skye?
Disappointed that you aren't the one
- meeting with her mother. - Agent May.
Sir, there's been gunfire.
Skye's mother's been shot, allegedly by Gonzales.
I'm afraid it's going to get worse.
What about Gonzales? Where's he?
I don't know.
Got what he always wanted.
No. He wouldn't do that.
It has to be something else.
Find Gonzales. Get everyone out.
I don't want to escalate the situation
till we find out what we're dealing with.
Have all three birds ready to fly the second I return.
He may be a part of it.
Make sure he's secured.
Agent May wants all quinjets ready for evacuation.
- Prep for takeoff. - Something's happening.
The teleporter's moving.
We need to get you to the doctors.
Okay.
Come on! Help me!
Why would you let them do this to us?
I thought you were on our side.
I am. I-I had no idea, I swear.
Jiaying, I'm here.
We got to get you out of here.
- Skye, stop! - What have you done?
That's what we're trying to figure out,
but you need to stand down.
Stand down?
After Gonzales just shot my mom and declared war on us?
You're the one who needs to stand down.
I need to see Gonzales.
Where is he? We can fix this.
It's too late to fix this.
Now take your men and get the hell out of here.
Not until I see Gonzales.
I don't want to hurt you!
You won't.
Stop wasting time, Skye. Help me fix this.
I'm sorry, May. You're not welcome here.
And my brother's been on me for years...
wants us to motorcycle down to Baja.
Beaches and desert... you'll get bored.
Truthfully, bored would be a nice change of pace.
So... There's nothing I can say?
To change my mind? No.
I just need some time to figure out my next move.
Harris, what happened?
- Gonzales is dead. - What? When?
At the sit-down. That's what people are saying.
We're waiting on orders.
*I'm half-crazy*
Jemma, do we have confirmation on who actually fired the missile?
*All for the love of you*
No, sir, we're still sorting out what happened
with that quinjet.
Our priority was to get all S.H.I.E.L.D. personnel out safely.
Was there any resistance to that from the locals?
No, they seemed as keen on leaving as we were...
perhaps retreating to shelters or bunkers.
Or they evacuated.
We know they have a powered way out.
May.
- Where's Skye? - How are you feeling?
I have a headache, and I asked a question.
None of this would have happened if Gonzales hadn't attacked.
You can't actually believe he would do something like this.
Oh, no, Gonzales would never attack a base unprovoked.
- Robert did not do this. - How can you be sure?
Because he went to great lengths
for me to get a gift for Jiaying, a peace offering.
I agree. Gonzales was smarter than this.
It's too sloppy.
I recommend we respond with a strong show of force.
I have no intention of starting a war
before I understand the situation.
Agent Weaver, you're now the highest-ranking officer on the carrier.
I want you to head back there and await further instructions.
Yes, sir.
I don't believe that Skye would turn against us.
You didn't see her fight me.
Her mother had just been shot.
I can believe she's confused.
No more than the rest of us.
Why invite S.H.I.E.L.D. only to attack?
I don't know, but maybe their peace offering over there does.
*But you'll look sweet*
*Upon the seat of a bicycle made for two*
I thought that with her healing powers, the pain...
Wouldn't be there? No such luck.
Her gift can heal the tissue damage with time,
but she feels all of it.
Does she need any blood?
I can... I-I can donate or... or what...
I think you've helped enough.
What is that supposed to mean?
It means Jiaying was right...
S.H.I.E.L.D. couldn't be trusted.
But you convinced her otherwise. Why?
You think I knew about any of this?
Lincoln. Skye.
I never meant for this to happen... I swear.
I should have been more careful.
S.H.I.E.L.D. has done this before.
I hoped they had changed.
Skye feels as betrayed as we do, Lincoln...
maybe more.
I don't think we know the full story.
- Coulson wouldn't do any... I can't do this right now.
I'd like everyone to leave.
I need rest if I'm going to heal.
Her phone's not picking up... not even voicemail.
Flight records suggest that Bobbi's quinjet left
before the other three.
There's no indication of a crash. The transponder's offline.
Uh, it's possible that somebody disconnected it, though.
Forget about the plane. Can you pull up the...
Footage from Bobbi, of the base...
before she left... good idea.
You know, I am capable of finishing my own...
Sentences.
Yes, you are. I'm sorry.
You knew, didn't you?
Your visions... you saw fire, destruction.
You knew it would all fall apart.
I'm afraid so.
Everyone thinks flowers are so delicate.
They really are quite resilient.
I'm not here to talk botany.
No, you're here to ask questions about what's gonna happen next.
Yes.
Well, that's the tragedy.
Because even if I were inclined to tell you,
you wouldn't believe me, not with our history.
Forget history... I don't care about the past. Just...
Well, you should,
because the past and the future are intertwined, just like us.
Our paths have been intertwined since before we even met,
and I'm not talking about DNA.
You and I have spent our entire lives searching for our destiny,
and I finally have the answer.
I had a vision today, and it revealed the truth.
I've seen it.
Tell me.
- You wouldn't believe me. - Raina.
It is the thorn that protects the rose.
Or, in this case, the daisy.
Please, stop with the metaphors.
It's not a metaphor.
That's the irony.
My true purpose, my... destiny
Is to help you become...
What you're supposed to be.
Why the hell did I even come here?
Because you want answers.
You're just not willing to hear them.
In fact, we'll never speak to each other again.
But... You'll see.
Your mother isn't leading our people...
She's misleading them.
It's you who are destined to lead.
Even in the darkness, you'll see the truth.
The evacuation?
I've taken everyone that needed protection back to their homes.
The rest await your orders.
I'm confident Lincoln will fight with us, as well,
when the time comes.
He's convinced S.H.I.E.L.D. is the threat.
That's true of everyone.
Your plan worked.
They're all willing to fight because S.H.I.E.L.D. attacked.
What about your daughter?
I'm hopeful she'll do the right thing.
We've gone to great lengths to ensure it.
First, I need to get better. I need to heal.
I'm so sorry.
You want to tell me what you're really doing here?
Sure.
I'm a present, a gift horse...
a peace offering from my family.
I'm also an excellent shanghai rummy partner.
Sir, I'm worried he's more of a Trojan Horse.
I believe Cal took these before he was handed over to us.
- I'm going to analyze them in the lab. - Go.
Have we lost Skye?
We didn't lose Skye. She chose.
Okay, that's May.
Yeah, and that's the woman
that once set my 1967 convertible GTO on fire.
The question on the table is not who, but where.
No, that's what I'm saying.
Facial recognition timed this footage from 10 minutes later.
See. That's May leaving the base again.
It's Agent 33.
What would she want with Bobbi?
You know why you're here, but I want to hear you say it.
Sure, I'm here because you're a twisted psychopath, and once...
Wrong answer.
Shouldn't waste your energy, baby.
We'll stay here as long as it takes.
We'll get her to admit what she did to you.
Sunil Bakshi gave up some surprising information
when we were finding closure with him.
He said that you knowingly handed Agent Kara Palamas over to Hydra,
that you are the reason she suffered months of torture
and mind control at the hands of her enemy.
You are here to confess that truth,
to give Kara the closure she needs to move on...
to heal, the way I've healed.
Good luck with that.
It's not luck that's gonna help us.
Kara tells me you don't like needles.
How are you even up?
A skilled doctor, the generosity of others.
Honestly, having you here is the best medicine I could hope for.
Okay, but I've been shot before, a-and this I-is...
Inhuman?
What's wrong?
Everything.
S.H.I.E.L.D. attacking, you getting shot,
Me fighting May, the threat of more people dying...
this is way up there on one of the worst days ever.
And I talked to Raina.
She warned that bad things are gonna happen.
I was hoping she'd have answers.
Thought you didn't trust her.
I don't, and I shouldn't have gone.
She's full of lies, and she'll never change.
We have more pressing work...
the safety of our people.
How? S.H.I.E.L.D. can find us anywhere.
Which is why we have to stop hiding and fight.
You want to take the battle to S.H.I.E.L.D.?
You've seen more clearly than anyone
how they treat people who are different, who have gifts.
I know, but to...
If our people are ever going to be safe,
I need you standing by my side.
I know it's a lot to ask, and there's little time.
Bring this back to me if you decide to join our fight.
Skye's mother orchestrated the whole thing.
It was a performance.
The quinjet they stole only fired on the one building.
- Nobody got hurt. - Except commander Gonzales.
It either killed him
or destroyed any evidence of foul play against him.
If it's theater, it worked.
Every inhuman up there believes
that S.H.I.E.L.D. attacked their leader and declared war.
- Including Skye. - Then mark that down as the second time
S.H.I.E.L.D. got played today.
Figured out what happened to Agent Morse.
She left on a quinjet with... you.
I didn't leave with Bobbi. That's...
Agent 33.
She killed her guard,
stashed him under a blanket in vault C,
then boarded a quinjet posing as May.
But why? I don't understand.
The quinjet's transponder went dark outside Aranda de Duero in Spain.
I'm gonna need a pilot.
With pleasure.
This reeks of Ward.
He left Agent 33 here for this very purpose.
But why take Bob? Did she have a history with him?
Not that I know of, but Ward's logic is rarely logical.
There's a piece we don't understand yet.
There's a piece that Ward doesn't understand.
When I find him, I'm going to kill him.
Glad we're on the same page.
Any agent worth their salt
adjusts to pain... can push it away.
So I took a different approach...
Paralytic combined with an anesthetic.
You can't fight what's happening,
nor can you feel any of the pain... yet.
Crazy, huh?
Now, in a little while, the drug will turn off.
Everything you're not feeling will,
mnh, flood in at once.
It's how I felt after the mind control was removed.
I remembered every terrible thing they did to me.
Now, we can avoid all that pain if you cooperate.
Admit your sins.
What happened to you was a tragedy.
Not good enough.
I had to make a choice when I was inside Hydra...
protect my cover by giving them a S.H.I.E.L.D. safe house
that might be occupied or blow my cover
and lose intel that I knew for a fact
would get two dozen S.H.I.E.L.D. agents killed.
So you did sell me out.
I'm sorry you were in that safe house,
but I did the right thing.
The lives of the many outweigh the life of one.
You... you swore to the same ideal
when you signed to S.H.I.E.L.D.
That's your apology?
I'll go one better.
If I ever apologize or beg for mercy while you torture me,
know that I don't mean a word of it... not a word.
I made a hard call.
I'd make the same one again right now.
They destroyed the device we used to track the teleporter.
Not knowing their next move is exactly why
S.H.I.E.L.D. needs to end this before it goes any further.
I agree that losing the tracking device is a big setback.
Satellite imaging suggests their compound's been all but deserted.
Doesn't mean we can't strike.
Until I know more, I won't be forced into action.
We may still have assets in there.
Agent Skye? She could expose us.
She knows every S.H.I.E.L.D. procedure.
You're gambling with our lives because of one agent.
The security of S.H.I.E.L.D. far outweighs the safety of Skye.
It's not her safety... it's her usefulness.
Mack, I thought you left.
I did, but with Gonzales dead,
I need to see this settled first.
So, you agree we should attack?
No. I agree it needs to be settled.
I'm not sure whether I'm happier you haven't left yet
or that you agree with me for once.
I understand Skye could be a threat,
But she's also our best bet for resolution.
I have her father here.
Give me a few hours to gather more information.
Three hours.
We'll continue gathering intel on this side.
Is there a problem?
Only time will tell.
What about the alien thing in the cargo hold?
Could be what this is all about.
I've already doubled the guard.
You used to be chief engineer.
If you're sticking around, make yourself useful.
This ship needs to be battle ready.
I'm not a polar bear, Phil.
So why is it colder than bloody blue hell down here, huh?
And, uh, what's with the, uh... the doodad on my wrist, huh?
That doodad monitors your vitals.
I'll get you another blanket if you'd like,
or maybe some hot cocoa.
Are you mocking me?
Torturing me after I willingly turned myself in?
Torture isn't my thing, Cal,
and surrender doesn't really seem like yours.
Why did Jiaying send you?
Do you have children, Phil?
I do not.
Well, then, you'll never understand
what a father will do for his child...
Never imagine my pain when S.H.I.E.L.D. stole my daughter.
We've been over this. It wasn't S.H.I.E.L.D.... It was Hydra.
And didn't you get your vengeance back in the day?
My understanding is you single-handedly killed a whole lot of people.
I suppose that's true.
I'm curious how you did it.
With style.
Tell me you figured out what drugs Cal took,
because my gut's saying everything ever made.
I haven't fully sequenced the formula yet,
if only for the multitude of trace drugs found,
but my initial list includes anabolic-androgenic steroids,
a liver enzyme blocker, various metabolic enhancers,
methamphetamines,
what appears to be gorilla testosterone,
and... no lie... a drop of peppermint.
I think it's an ill-conceived attempt at super strength.
Other than Cap, every attempt has been ill-conceived.
Will he survive it?
A single vial would send any normal man to the hospital.
Skye's father took three.
He should be dead.
It's happening. She feels it.
Once she understands your pain,
we can all move past this unpleasantness.
Don't you see what's happening?
He's molding you... the way that Bakshi molded you.
The circle never ends.
You left her for dead.
I'm helping her heal...
from wounds you inflicted.
Then take her to Hawaii.
Do you think it'll end with me?
There's always someone else to blame.
You're wrong.
I bet he started you off easy... symbolic target...
maybe the doctor who made your mask.
Ward probably started off easy, too.
You're right.
It was his dog.
Garrett made him kill his dog.
I know what you're doing, Agent Morse,
and it's not going to work.
Grant's already told me everything...
everything... about his abusive family,
about John Garrett,
about having to kill victoria hand.
But in the end, he overcame his family
and the pain Garrett put him through.
He remade himself.
It's why I love him...
And why no matter what he does,
I will always stand with Ward.
Thank you for meeting me, Raina.
How are you feeling?
Stronger.
I should have listened to your warning about S.H.I.E.L.D.
I hadn't foreseen you getting attacked.
I would have told you.
These are dangerous days.
I'm grateful for your visions.
You'll be a valuable adviser.
Adviser.
Growing up, my dream was to lead the inhumans.
Life is rarely what we dream.
I've learned that more painfully than most.
And now I've come to accept it.
It is not for me to lead, but to illuminate.
I've seen the future... And your plan.
Does it succeed?
There's only one thing that can save the inhumans
from death and destruction.
And it is neither you nor I. It's Skye.
I've considered killing her and you... running from my fate.
But then, I realized...
what my grandmother used to say...
That one day, I would be an angel.
And I realized her words have come true.
I am not a monster.
I am an angel.
I'm finally what I'm meant to be.
I'm happy to hear you say that.
Angels are guardians, Jiaying,
But they're also heralds, sent to reveal the truth.
And that is my purpose.
I'm here to show the inhumans exactly what you are.
Even in the darkness, they will see the truth.
No. They won't.
What did you do?
- How could you? - She threatened me.
You tried to warn me,
but I didn't listen until it was almost too late.
She knew I would see this. She said as much.
She saw who you really are, so you killed her.
Everything I've done,
everything I will do is for the protection of our people.
You killed Gonzales.
You want a war.
War was inevitable.
I struck first so we would have the advantage.
He came to make peace.
Peace?
I built this community in the middle of nowhere
so we would be left in peace.
Yet, S.H.I.E.L.D. found us.
No matter where we go or what we do, they will hunt us down.
If we are to survive,
S.H.I.E.L.D. must be destroyed.
What are you planning?
I am planning for our future... your future.
Daisy, I won't live forever,
and when I'm gone, you must lead these people...
protect them as I have done.
Protect them? You killed Raina.
You are leading them into a war.
If they need protection, it is from you!
I'm sorry you feel that way.
Restrain her. Take her with you.
When this is done, hopefully she'll understand.
And dispose of Raina's body.
What is her plan?
Could... could I get a glass of that water?
May I have another one to drink?
That depends on your cooperation.
They just want to live in peace.
Is that such a crime?
Your wife assassinated a high-ranking S.H.I.E.L.D. officer,
then staged it to look like we attacked them.
Wake up, Cal.
She's trying to start a war,
and your daughter's gonna be caught in the middle of it.
I don't believe you.
Neither of us would ever do anything to hurt our daughter.
No. But you'd do anything to protect her.
Look at yourself.
Whatever was in these... it's killing you.
Was getting rid of you part of her peace plan?
You got it all wrong, Phil.
That little concoction is my own special formula.
I took it of my own free will.
You see, when my Daisy was stolen,
I wasn't strong enough to protect her,
so I started experimenting.
If I wasn't born with inhuman powers,
then I would make my own.
Best-laid plans. C'est la vie.
I never got it quite right... always missing something.
Highly unstable.
Made me a little moody.
Could it kill me? Sure.
But it was worth the risk.
You're here to take out some S.H.I.E.L.D. agents.
No.
I'm here to take out as many as I can.
At least they didn't crash.
Maybe they both just needed a holiday.
Bobbi always liked Spain.
Probably sitting on a beach,
telling 33 what a lousy husband I was.
I did have my faults.
Hunter.
That's my Bob.
Never goes down without a fight.
What the hell does Ward want with her?
No idea.
But if anyone can handle him, it's Bobbi.
Gonna be a long night.
I knew you'd be tough.
Coulson's got a good eye for talent,
though he's a little blind when it comes to spies in his own house.
You know, you and I are a lot alike,
Both of us living one life on the outside.
But who we really are...
we keep that buried deep inside...
where no one can ever find it.
That's why Coulson never saw us coming.
That's why you never saw me coming.
Where's Kara?
Sleeping.
Oh, but don't worry... I can go all night.
I need you to help me help her.
Kara needs closure.
Admit that you betrayed her, and we can end this.
You're such a hypocrite.
You say I betrayed her?
You betrayed your entire team.
How many people who trusted you have died?
See, I've seen the real Grant Ward,
the one buried deep inside.
He's a coward who always has an excuse
or someone else to blame.
You don't know me.
Sure, I do.
Is there anything you'd like to say to Kara?
Yeah.
I'd do it all again.
This isn't right.
I'm not feeling it.
She doesn't care if she dies, and...
She's not sorry.
It's okay, baby.
I know what to do.
Hey, Mack, everything checking out?
What can I say? I do good work.
I'm headed down to machine room two to run a systems test.
Copy that. Keep me posted.
Where are the others?
Already in their places.
If you hurt anyone here, Daisy will never forgive you.
Stop calling her that!
Sorry. I thought th... never mind.
"Daisy" to me and her mother... not you, not anyone else.
Fair enough, but my point is she's been led to believe
- that you're a monster. - Innuendos! Lies!
Well, you did wipe out an entire village.
They were trying to hide her from me!
It was Jiaying's idea to destroy that village, wasn't it?
Just like this was her idea.
She told you to take this. She didn't care if it killed you.
She's using you to do her dirty work.
No! No! More lies!
You've always done her dirty work. She's the real monster.
She's not like me.
No. She's worse.
She's not a monster!
Clear.
- No response. - We can't lose him.
I thought you said he wanted to kill us.
He's Skye's father. We have to try.
I'm doing what I can.
Get me an adrenaline injector, one milligram.
Fitz, I need it now.
You were looking for a monster?
This is what I was missing.
Cal.
Cal, listen to me.
Cal, I can take you to Daisy, but you need to calm down.
This is me calm, Phil.
Fitz, I'm open to suggestions.
Icers are a good start.
Agreed.
Got to admit, I'm not hopeful these will do anything but piss him off.
There are more lethal solutions.
Not yet. He's Skye's father... or at least, he was.
I'm hoping there's still a sliver of the man who...
There goes the feeling in my legs.
Get out of here.
- No, sir. You... - Now, go!
Cal.
Phil... Time for you to go night-night.
Time for the big sleep.
Time to die.
For everyone in S.H.I.E.L.D. to die!
This is Jiaying's plan, not yours.
So what?
I've always done whatever she asks.
It makes me happy.
It's why she loves me.
Careful with her. She's unconscious, not dead.
Just lock her up. We have to move fast.
A day ago, I never wanted to talk to her again.
Now she's all I can think about.
Love's weird that way.
I'm not sure it's love... more like a dance of desire,
discomfort, and unreliable feelings.
Hold on. Bobbi's phone's back in service.
Shouldn't be too hard to trace this to a location.
Could be a trap.
Been there, done that.
Most of my marriage to Bobbi felt like a trap.
But... we did have our good times.
So, you up for this?
If it means finding Ward and putting a bullet in his head...
I'm all in.
Guess love is weird that way.
That was fast.
Someone must really miss their honey bunny.
You think he'll come for you, hmm?
Since you've shown no remorse for your sins against Kara,
since you clearly have no regard for your own life...
We're leaving you a little present.
First person through this door...
Brains everywhere.
I wonder what you'll feel
when you watch somebody else die because of what you did.
I know what we'll feel.
Closure.
Shot's fired.
Take your positions.
Watch the sky.
Go, go, go.
We're clear.
Weapons down or everybody dies.
What did you do with Skye?
Follow me, and I'll show you.
I can't wait to get off this boat.
Hangar deck's ours.
I'm headed down to secure the armory.
I'm also upstairs in the conference room.
Comms are down. Engines are down.
They've shorted out most of the electrical on the ship.
They've taken both reactor compartments,
the crew quarters, as well as the hangar deck.
Good god.
Get me a secure channel to Coulson at H.Q.
- We need to warn him. - Copy that.
Do we have anybody left still fighting below?
Director Coulson, we are under attack
from an unknown number of gifted assailants.
They have killed dozens of my men.
We need your help. I'm sending our...
Jemma, run! Run!
Yes, let's all run!
Now it's just you and me.
And we're gonna talk.
All clear.
The ship's been taken.
Most of the crew have been secured on a lower deck.
Anyone unaccounted for will be found on our next sweep.
Now what?
Now...
We begin.
This won't hold me for long, Phil.
It'll hold you long enough.
The hangar's been emptied, locked down.
It's just us, Cal, to have a little chat...
When I get free,
I will rip your voice box out of your throat!
And try to come to our senses.
Either we walk out of here together,
or not at all. You got it?
We both want the same thing.
What I want is to snap your spine like celery.
See, I don't think you really do.
Well, let's test your hypothesis.
Oh, I think you're willing to, but want is a different thing.
What we both want is to protect your daughter.
You're a family man.
Who is sick of you sticking your nose in our business.
It was your devotion to them that made you willing
to do those terrible things all those years ago, wasn't it?
- Shut up. - Nightmarish acts of violence
that you didn't want to commit, did you?
Your wife made you do it.
You don't know her!
You don't know anything!
Say one more word, and I'll...
I'm not saying your wife is a monster, Cal.
I think you already know she's a monster.
What I'm saying is you're not.
I know you've thought so for a long time.
But deep down, you're a good man.
I believe that. I do.
You got a big heart full of love.
You wear it on your sleeve.
- Skye got that from you. - Stop.
- No. - That's right.
No, stop! Stop!
You were just trying to save her, trying to please your wife.
No, I was trying to put my family back together!
I...
I reassembled her...
Piece by piece...
Sewed her back up...
But she was never the same.
She was out for blood.
Before Whitehall,
an elder would sacrifice themselves
every few decades so she could live on,
carry on tradition.
She would weep, scream,
beg them not to.
She had a good heart, Phil.
She did.
It was just...
torn out.
And she needs to take lives to heal.
So you supplied them.
Yes, a village of them.
But it was never enough.
She didn't care about human life anymore.
Even I had to change myself to be worthy in her eyes.
I thought I could fix her
If I could just make good on my promise.
I promised to protect our daughter.
Does that include protecting your daughter from her?
You know Skye now... her compassion.
Jiaying's out for blood,
and there's no way in hell Skye will go along with that.
Think about the danger that puts her in.
She's not my daughter, but she's as close to family as I've got,
and I will save her, no matter what the cost.
Please...
Let me help you.
You want to lend me a hand getting these things off?
Or a face?
Mack?
Thank god. Who's with you?
Just you and me, tremors.
Your people just took over the ship.
About 100 or so prisoners. The rest are dead.
Guess they're not as harmless as you say.
I swear, I never meant for any of this to happen. I...
We need to stop them. But if you're in here,
I'm guessing you figured that out already.
It's my mother. She's manipulating them.
Not all of these people are bad.
They're using their powers to kill S.H.I.E.L.D. agents,
so I don't give a damn about intentions right now.
I came here because I need your skills.
I can't use my powers.
They locked these inhibitors on me.
Not the skills I'm looking for.
Heard you have a history of hacking into S.H.I.E.L.D.
That's the fan room, down on the fourth deck.
All the ship's air circulates through it.
Take a case of crystals down there.
Load the rest on the quinjet.
We have a problem.
I disabled the communication systems,
but an emergency beacon was sent out to Coulson's base.
It's hard-wired,
and there's no way to cancel it without the proper code.
Do one of you have the code?
I suggest you surrender peacefully.
When Coulson gets the message,
he'll come at you with everything he has.
Coulson's being dealt with.
I don't need you to cancel the beacon.
I want you to expand it.
This ship and Coulson's base aren't the full extent
of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s operations.
Expand the beacon. Invite them all.
You want them to know we're here?
We have to show them what we're capable of.
It's the only way they'll ever leave us alone.
We don't know what you're planning,
but we'll play no part in it.
- Hands off, you freak! - What are you doing?
Let him go!
Do you like rare gems?
You don't think you can bribe me.
It's not a bribe. It's an incentive.
Expand the beacon, or there will be more.
If we don't cut that beacon,
it'll bring every available agent racing here.
And she plans to do that to all of them.
The problem is, it's hard-wired,
clear on the other side of the ship,
with a dozen ginger ninjas and god knows who else
standing in the way.
But we're still gonna try.
Hell yeah.
Well, his physical changes have improved.
Careful. I'm a married man.
Sorry, Phil.
This looks expensive.
We have a tab running.
Sir, the carrier's distress call...
it's expanded to all channels.
Jiaying used Cal's distraction
to take over that ship in minutes.
Yeah. It's intimidating.
You get May and Hunter on the line?
We'll need every asset we've got to shut these inhumans down.
I tried, sir.
Uh, their team's already gone dark.
There he is, poor sap...
Not a clue what he's walking into.
I didn't think May would be with him.
She could screw the whole thing up for us.
Well, we'll make sure Hunter and Bobbi get their reunion...
by taking the rest out one by one.
Don't worry about May.
I'll take care of her. I owe her that.
Take that all the way.
Check every room.
Bob?
Bobbi? Bob?
I'm coming to find you, Bobbi.
Bobbi.
- Agent May. - Not really.
Agent Walker took the south corner, right?
He still radio silent?
All agents converge on the south corner.
I'll meet you there.
Do not lower your guard until you see my face.
Hunter's the only agent left.
She doesn't know that.
Bobbi. I'm coming for you, Bob.
Bob!
Come on! Stay with me, Bob!
Come on. Come on.
Come on. Come on, Bob. Bob, Bob.
Stay with me. Stay with me.
Bobbi. Bobbi. Stay with me.
Please, please. I've got you. I've got you.
Baby.
Kara?
No, no.
Kara, no.
Kara, look at me. Look at me!
No, no, no, no! No, kara!
Look at me, baby. Come on.
It's...
Oh, god. Oh, god.
Please.
Please, Bobbi. Come on.
Help. We need to get her out of here. I'm losing her.
Easy, easy.
Beautiful, isn't it?
I don't know about beautiful, but I'm guessing it's dangerous.
In the wrong hands, lethal to our people.
It's better we have control over it.
And what about us?
How dangerous are we?
Very. We've always been.
Now they know it.
What Jiaying did in there was... that was murder.
That was necessary.
She'll do whatever's needed to protect our people.
You know that better than most.
Are you forgetting your life before we found you?
Of course I haven't forgotten.
Then you remember how far she went to save you
and know how far she will go to save all of us.
We're not doing anything that S.H.I.E.L.D. itself wouldn't do.
They have turned Jiaying's own daughter against us.
We have her locked up now, but given how lethal Skye is,
it could get worse.
You'd be wise to remember that.
She just killed them... all of them...
Didn't even think about it.
Yeah, I thought my mom was bad
when she started watching Fox News.
And I fell for the whole act.
Look, you had to choose between two... this way.
This way.
You had to choose between two sides
that both mean something.
I get it. You make the best choice you can.
Sometimes, it works out. Sometimes...
- It didn't. - It did not.
Beacon's in the sat room down to the left.
Go get started. Try to hack the code and turn it off.
Wait. Where are you going?
To find a power saw in case you can't.
Sir, good news.
I've modified my field generators
to act in unison as a quantum-field disrupter.
Great, you're saying you found a way
to shut down Gordon's teleportation ability?
Well, now my news sounds less good.
Sorry.
The disrupter should keep him contained to a single space.
I'll take anything.
We have quinjets flying in from all over the world right now
to answer the S.O.S. with us.
It will be nice to have something more to offer them
than an encouraging thumbs-up.
What about Bobbi?
Landing any moment.
Cal destroyed the lab. It's unusable right now.
This is our best option. We'll make it work.
Any update from May on Bobbi's condition?
They've slowed the bleeding. She's holding on, but barely.
- We'll see. - Okay.
And is Cal stable enough to join the mission on the carrier?
- Why would you want - That doesn't sound
- Cal on the mission? - like a very good idea.
Gunshot wound to the upper back.
Exit wound in the chest.
Pulse is 140 and weak. B.P.'s 60 over 30.
She stopped breathing just before we landed.
I bagged her... got her going again. Hurry.
1, 2, 3.
Let's get her prepped for surgery.
CBC with diff, chem-20. Portable chest x-rays.
- Cross and type for two units. - Yes, doctor.
How did you get out?
Lincoln. I-I can explain.
Don't bother.
You've got this wrong... Very wrong.
- Listen, please. - I just found you trying to reach out
to your S.H.I.E.L.D. friends.
You planning the next assault?
That attack didn't happen, Lincoln.
Jiaying staged the whole thing.
She murdered Gonzales,
then shot herself to frame S.H.I.E.L.D.
so we'd follow her to war.
Do you even hear how crazy that sounds?
Shot herself?
She's already healed, hasn't she?
I'd tell you to ask Raina... she can see the future...
but she's not here, is she?
She's not here because she had a vision of what happened,
what's going to happen.
And Jiaying couldn't risk her talking, so she cut her throat.
Why are you doing this... trying to turn us against her?
You saw what she did with those crystals...
killed unarmed agents.
Okay, think.
Why would she want the rest of S.H.I.E.L.D. to come here?
It's... it's not to hug it out. She wants to execute them.
We can stop this.
Please, just tell me where she took the crystals.
The fan room... Where the ship's air circu...
Found a saw.
I was getting through to him.
Right now, I'm in a "Crack heads first,
ask questions later" frame of mind.
Here. Hack that beacon or just cut it.
I'm gonna make sure those crystals don't hurt anyone else.
Mack, you know what happens
if one breaks near a vent, near you.
That's why they won't.
Melinda?
I just wanted to hear your voice.
You haven't made a call like this since Bahrain.
Yeah.
Well, then I know it's not good.
Do you want to tell me what's going on?
How bad are we talking?
There's no way it will end well.
Andrew...
There's a lot I didn't say that I wish I did.
Me, too.
Do good, Melinda, and get home safe.
You'll be careful?
I won't be careful. I'll get the job done.
Well, watch your back
because I just saw Hunter with Bobbi,
and it made me realize that... I...
Well, it's just that w...
we never really spoke about...
what you said to me at the bottom of the ocean.
This?
Now?
You want to talk about this now?
No.
We... we don't...
It means a lot to me that we're friends again, and I, um...
Maybe when you get back,
we could finally just talk about it.
It's...
There's nothing to discuss, Jemma.
Maybe there is.
Agent Fitz, we're on the move.
I'd like to formally voice my doubts
about bringing him on this mission.
I understand your concerns, May,
but cal's lived with the inhumans.
He knows what we're getting ourselves into.
We do not.
He's a loose cannon.
Worse comes to worst, we let the cannon loose.
Any distraction might help us take that boat.
Look, Cal's erratic, but if there's one constant,
it's his concern for Skye.
Sir, something's happening with the S.O.S. signal from the boat.
I thought it was breaking up, like someone cutting the line.
Radio interference?
No, but there's, um, uh, a pattern to it, like a code.
It's Skye.
What's she saying?
That it's a trap.
This is S.H.I.E.L.D. 2-1-8
ordering all other forces to fall back.
Repeat. Fall back.
And what about us?
We're gonna finish this.
All the S.H.I.E.L.D. jets have turned around except one.
Someone must have warned them.
Go check Skye's cell.
What do you want to do
with the rest of the prisoners on this ship?
If S.H.I.E.L.D.'s not coming...
Then there's no reason to wait.
Break the crystals. Release the mist.
Either they're inhuman...
or they're dead.
We don't know the size of the force we're up against,
but priority one is saving the crew of the ship.
Find them. Free them.
May, head to operations.
Take control of the ship's functionality.
Sir, um, Skye's last message came through.
It reads, "Modified crystals lethal... hvac room."
Does she mean the terrigen crystals that release the mist?
Yeah. But "modified" and "lethal."
And the hvac room controls the ship's ventilation.
Ah! So that's what this little mutiny's all about.
Gas them all. See what shakes loose.
Not if I get to her first.
Oh, no. Not you, Phil. This is a family matter.
My wife, my responsibility.
You just find those crystals and leave her to me.
You brought him.
All right, everybody.
It's Gordon, right?
And you are?
I'm the guy who kills Gordon.
I want you to remain behind.
Gather anyone who makes it through the mist alive.
What are you doing with those?
What I've always done.
There are descendants everywhere.
I'm going to find them and build them a better world,
Where they're not hunted, not afraid.
And kill anyone in your way.
Only if they're in our way.
Goodbye, Daisy.
No, wait!
Come on, no-eyes!
Show yourself!
"No-eyes"?
That is the best you can do?
Oh, you want clever?
Come a little closer. I'll get real clever.
You're different than the others.
I sense you've encountered something kree.
- Wasn't pleasant. - I can imagine.
So why don't you put that thing down,
avoid any further unpleasantness?
I don't think so.
I've seen what these crystals can do.
So if you want them, you're gonna have to come get...
Hiya, honey.
What you been up to?
You came back here... with them?
I know. I know what you're thinking.
But I've been thinking some thoughts of my own,
Like... maybe we both kind of lost our heads.
Get out of the way, Cal.
No. You need to stop this.
This isn't about us or them.
This is about our daughter.
Think of what you are doing to Daisy.
I'm trying to protect her from the cruelty of this world...
like you swore to.
I know.
I failed you. I failed you both.
But we can turn this around.
It is not too late.
For you...
it is.
Where's Daisy?!
What did you do?!
Where's Daisy?!
What the hell took you so long?
It's a big boat with poor signage.
That no-eyed guy just popping in here,
trying to get at these crystals.
- If he breaks them... - Everybody's a statue.
We heard.
- Fitz? - On it.
Here. Take this.
Thanks, but I'll stick with the ax.
Ricochets in here will be bad.
And trust me, you will miss.
Right.
- What are those things? - Quantum field disrupters.
Should contain him here if he comes back.
- Of course. Why didn't I think of that? - That's okay.
You've been busy, and you're not a quantum physicist.
It's completely understandable.
Jiaying's not the only one who can set a trap.
You know, I batted over 400 in Little League.
My head still hurts.
I'm sorry. I didn't know.
You didn't know. But now we have to stop Jiaying.
Might help if we lose these.
Hurry.
There will be more redheads coming.
I'll go after her.
- Skye, I'll do it. I've done it before. - No.
- You have to be willing to... - I won't hesitate.
Whatever it takes.
Go.
Damn it, you sneaky son of a...
I hate this guy.
- Fitz, hurry the hell up! - Yeah, I'm almost there,
but I need him back in the room before...
Fitz, now! Hit it!
I'm trapped in here.
That's not possible! What did you do?!
Science, biatch.
Looks like it's batter up, Director.
Mom! Stop! You can't do this!
No, put them on the jet and get ready for takeoff.
I can't let you leave with those crystals.
You can, and you should.
It's the only way to protect our people.
It's not. There are other ways.
Whose ways? S.H.I.E.L.D.?
No. Their way is what got us here.
You started this war.
This war started decades ago, when S.H.I.E.L.D. was founded
to guard the world against people like us.
And it will never end.
But you and I together...
think of how powerful we could be.
We could launch a revolution...
side by side.
I don't want your revolution,
because this isn't about protecting me or your people.
This is about hate.
No, you're wrong.
It's consumed you. You can't even tell right from wrong.
I can't let you destroy any more lives.
My daughter.
So beautiful.
So strong.
Mom, what are you...
I always believed the reason I endured
all that torture and pain was for you,
that you were my true gift.
But you're not. This is.
Don't... do this.
You made your choice. I'm sorry.
No!
They're gonna keep coming.
Not if we take out the source.
Got her.
We're not bad. We're misled.
Attaboy, turbo.
Please.
Stop.
You don't have to do this.
You don't have to live with that pain.
I will.
Cal...
What are you doing?
Keeping my promise.
You ready to talk about it?
About what?
Your arm.
Not yet.
I'm looking into some options.
I'd rather hear your evaluation of my team.
Did you manage to get an accurate read on Bobbi?
I get pretty straight answers with morphine in the mix.
You look better.
Stupid, but better.
Taking a bullet for me was stupid.
Walking into a trap when you know it's a trap is stupid.
You were the bait.
Listen, bob, hang in there.
It's a long road.
Surgery again tomorrow.
They haven't even started on your knee yet.
But soon, you'll be stable, and then...
And then...
I can't do this anymore.
You convinced Mack not to quit.
Yeah, well, he kind of owed me
after cutting off my hand without asking.
He respects you.
But he still holds a deep distrust
of all the alien artifacts you've encountered.
That's why I put him in charge of them.
You know, we could get better readings
if we dropped a probe into the glass enclosure.
No, we're never opening that damn box in 1,000 years.
So, May asked for some time off
for the first time in the history of ever.
Does that have anything to do with
you being around these last few days?
Now, you know I can't discuss personal matters with patients.
I'm your patient now?
I wasn't your patient the other night
when you and your ex-wife snuck into my office
and drank up half my scotch.
Ah, it's time May rediscover the world outside of s.H.I.E.L.D.,
Don't you think?
That your report?
No, no, these are my recommendations for the new program.
You bringing other people in on this yet?
Slowly.
I got Fitz working on these designs.
We'll need to be mobile.
Thank you.
I'm glad you think Skye's ready for this.
At this point, I think she's ready for anything.
This is so long... For now.
After all I've done,
I'd be a fool to think I'd get a hollywood ending.
Came close.
I found you and got to...
You know, you're better than I imagined,
and I imagined you perfect.
You're way more interesting than that.
I wonder where I get that from.
It's paradoxical, isn't it...
My love for my family is what drove me mad?
I know I'm going away for good, but I was hoping...
You might come visit...
once in a while?
I will.
I promise.
That would be...
Let me guess the best day ever?
You have a lot of those.
No.
Just one.
July 2, 1988.
Looks like you're having trouble letting go...
Hate to see that, my friend.
So, did she walk out on you?
She drowned when her lungs filled up with blood.
These are all the names you could drum up?
You're lucky we found this many.
Whitehall, Strucker, List...
the leadership is gone, man.
Usually, a head grows back, but not this time.
The organization disintegrated.
I want more names.
And I want to marry into money.
Do you speak English?
No leadership means nobody giving orders,
and that sure as hell includes you.
Do you understand who you work for now?
Good.
I'm done flying solo.
I miss having a team around me.
I want more names.
Hail hydra to that.
What's the plan, sir? Chaos?
Closure.
Hey, there, little funny face.
You coming to see me today, hmm?
You come inside. We'll get you a treat.
Come on.
Can I help you?
Just passing by.
- Nice place. - Oh, thanks.
Well, we're just getting up and running.
It's gonna be a magical place once we get totally moved in.
You know, we already have adoption days every Saturday.
Tell your friends.
Free spaying and neutering, too.
Just ask for Dr. Winslow.
I'm sorry. And you are...
Daisy.
That's a lovely name.
Remember, a house is not a home without a pet!
Thank you for doing that for him.
I know aspects of the TAHITI program don't sit well with you.
This does.
He has a lot to give...
And now a way to give it.
And what about you?
Are you ready to refocus your energies?
A team centered around people with powers?
How many on the list?
Right now, just you. We'll take it slow.
I've thought a lot about it.
And?
And my mother was right about one thing...
People like me need to be kept a secret,
not like the Avengers, out in the open.
If we do this, we need to be...
Anonymous. That's the idea.
But it's not if we do this.
We have to do this. We don't have a choice.
It may feel like things have cooled down right now,
but this...
This is my permanent reminder...
That we'll always be paying the price,
that we'll never get ahead of the consequences
that I, that you,
that S.H.I.E.L.D. have set in motion.
Like a ripple in the water.
But this ripple won't fade.
It'll grow and grow until it's a tidal wave.
No, I don't.
You keep rambling on and on,
and I still don't know what you mean.
Dinner.
Fast approaching, yes, and we'll eat it, I'm sure.
Yeah, no, no, no. But, uh, me and you...
Maybe we could eat somewhere else, you know,
Somewhere... Nice.
Good. Okay.
Uh, well, y... uh, you should come find me
when you're finished here, and... and I'll...
I'll start working on options to run by you... for that.
Ugh, what...
