During his time on Earth, Randolph fell in love with the planet and its people, and when the rest of the Asgardian host returned home, Randolph stayed behind.

- The next morning, Peggy comes in to work to see everyone sombre and sullen. She sees the flowers on Krzeminski's desk. Sousa is bothered that the anonymous tip came to SSR directly and thinks it means they were targeted. Dooley addresses everyone, reminding them Krzeminski's death is Howard Stark's fault.(Agent Carter "Time & Tide")
- After learning that Brannis and the Leviathan attacker, Sasha Demidov, were supposed to have died during the Battle of Finow, Dooley travels to Germany to speak with the Nazi colonel who lead the opposing forces, and though he doesn't learn how Brannis and Demidov survived, Dooley does discover that their Russian forces were seemingly massacred before the Nazis even arrived. With Carter's only job to collect lunch orders, she meets up with Howard, who has secretly returned in the wake of his technology's discovery. Looking at photographs Peggy takes of the weapons, he identifies one of them as the Blitzkrieg Button, which he claims can cause a permanent blackout throughout the city. However, a suspicious Peggy opens the device to find a vial of Steve Rogers' blood. Angry at Howard for lying to her, she hides the vial. Otto Mink, the criminal who smuggled Howard into New York, but was scammed out of his money by Peggy and Jarvis, follows Carter back to her apartment, but he is killed by her new neighbor Dottie Underwood.

At SSR, Dooley is reviewing the files when suddenly the long-range typewriter starts tapping.(Agent Carter The Blitzkrieg Button)
- Peggy's neighbor Dottie begins her day with rigorous sit-ups. Then she puts on a giggly face and has breakfast with Peggy. Dottie "accidentally" knocks over Peggy's purse and swipes her keys. Jarvis finds Peggy at a newsstand and tries again to apologize. Peggy is still angry at Howard Stark for using her to get Steve's blood. Jarvis asks if she honestly thinks her male colleagues will ever give her a chance. At SSR HQ, it's a beehive of activity following the long-range typewriter spitting out a message. A code breaker is having no luck with it, but Peggy decodes it quickly and finds map coordinates and a message setting a time to exchange a purchase. It references Leviathan and a havoc reactor. The message ends with saying the payment is for Howard Stark. Peggy has to argue with Chief Dooley to get to go on the mission to Russia, where she spent three years during the war. Agent Thompson argues against her going, and Dooley is about to agree. Peggy suggests she can get the 107th regiment, who know the terrain better than anyone, and Dooley agrees to let her go if she can. She does with one phone call. Dooley sends her in a team with Thompson and two other agents to the map coordinates she deciphered. Arriving there and teaming up with the Howling Commandos, led by Dum Dum Dugan. They find a Soviet military complex which seems to be a training site for children to infiltrate the United States as sleeper agents. Back in New York, Agent Dooley meets with a reporter to learn more about the Battle of Finau, in which 247 Russians died. He says Stark was there for the clean-up. He picked a fight with General McGuinness and lost badly, but McGuinness resigned a week later. McGuinness died a few months ago. A week after that, Stark cut all ties with the army and walked away from a huge contract. He suggests SSR doesn't have the full story about Howard Stark. During the mission, she and Thompson reach an understanding as she proves her value in the field, and helps Thompson deal with his own insecurities with being back in the line of fire. Back home, Dottie revealed to be a product of the same training site breaks into Peggy's apartment and finds the photos she took of the inventory of Stark's weapons, Dooley realizes there is more to the manhunt against Stark, and Sousa begins to suspect that the mysterious blonde might be Peggy.(Agent Carter The Iron Ceiling)
- At SSR, Ivchenko tells Agent Dooley about Leviathan. Peggy peppers him with questions about the young girls trained to kill until Dooley hauls her out of the room. She thinks one of those girls grew up and killed Agent Krezminski. The gun that was used was Russian, and small, best suited to a woman's grip. A woman is also the most plausible explanation for how Howard Stark was manipulated. Dooley shocks Carter by telling her to investigate her hunch. Peggy and Jarvis investigate the women that Stark has been involved with over the last six months, believing that a female Leviathan operative may have been used against Stark and to kill Krzeminski, but their search is unsuccessful. Sousa reveals to Dooley that Carter is an apparent traitor, and all agents are tasked with tracking her down. They eventually corner her and Jarvis, but Carter fights them off. During the commotion, Dr. Ivchenko, who is actually working for Leviathan, hypnotizes Agent Yauch, who reveals that only Dooley can access Stark's weapons. Yauch shows Ivchenko how to get out of the S.S.R., before Ivchenko forces him to commit suicide. Peggy retrieves Steve's blood from her apartment. As she tries to escape the building, she is knocked out by Dottie, but not before realizing that she is the Leviathan operative. Dottie is about to kill Peggy when Thompson and Sousa arrive. She feigns ignorance, and the agents arrest Peggy.(Agent Carter A Sin to Err)
- Peggy undergoes interrogation by her former colleagues at the S.S.R. After some time Jarvis appears with a signed confession from Stark, in which he promises to surrender if Peggy is released without charge. Jarvis then confesses to Carter that the document is fake, and she is angry at him for ruining her chances of release. However, Carter spots Dr. Ivchenko communicating in Morse code with Dottie across the street. Carter decides to reveal the truth to Dooley, Sousa and Thompson in order to gain their trust and stop an impending attack. Dooley eventually decides to trust Carter and dispatches Sousa and Thompson to find Dottie while he watches over Dr. Ivchenko. Alone with Dooley, Ivchenko manages to hypnotize him and has him lock Jarvis and Carter in an interrogation room. Ivchenko and Dooley then head to the S.S.R.'s labs to steal an item from the collection of Stark weapons. Meanwhile, Sousa confronts Dottie, but she manages to escape, killing another S.S.R. agent in the process. Ivchenko, now in possession of one of Stark's weapons, hands Dooley an experimental armor vest to wear. Ivchenko then leaves the S.S.R. and is picked up by Dottie. Thompson frees Carter and Jarvis, and the three of them find the hypnotized Dooley in his office wearing the vest. They manage to rouse him, but Jarvis reveals the vest is temperamental and will explode with no way to deactivate it. Left with little choice, Dooley steals Thompson's sidearm, shoots out a window, and jumps moments before the device detonates, killing him but leaving the S.S.R. offices mostly intact. Having escaped from Sousa and Thompson, Dottie arrives at a crowded cinema with a baby carriage containing a gas cylinder, which she activates before leaving and locking the door behind her. The gas makes many in the audience begin to cough loudly before they become maniacal and begin to attack each other violently. An usher arrives with some latecomers, unlocks the door and reveals the entire audience is bloody and dead, causing the usher to scream.(Agent Carter Snafu )
- Following the massacre at the cinema, Howard Stark enters the S.S.R. where he reveals to Peggy Carter, Edwin Jarvis, Jack Thompson, and Daniel Sousa that the gas in question was the Midnight Oil which was a failed experiment that was used to kill the Russian soldiers with Johann Fennhoff, Ivchenko's real name, a survivor bent on revenge. Hearing that Howard Stark has been exonerated, Fennhoff orchestrates Howard's capture at a press conference and brainwashes him to distribute the Midnight Oil on Times Square from the air during V-3. Arriving at Howard's location, Jarvis follows a brainwashed Howard into the air while Peggy fights Dottie which ends with the assassin falling out the window. Fennhoff knocks out Thompson and tries to brainwash Sousa only to be defeated by him since he was wearing earplugs. After Howard was broken free from the brainwashing, Johann was gagged and arrested while Dottie is shown to have gotten away. After leaving the S.S.R., Howard give one of his penthouses to Peggy and Angie to live in, Peggy learns from Jarvis that Howard decided to destroy his inventions as he gives her the vial of Steve's blood. Peggy later dumps the vial's contents in the river, finally able to move on with her life. Meanwhile, at a prison, a special gagged Dr. Fennhoff meets his cellmate Arnim Zola who gives the Russian scientist a pencil and paper so they can exchange ideas.(Agent Carter Valediction )

They seek help from Frost's ex-boyfriend Joseph Manfredi, a crime lord, who gives them men for the job in exchange for Chadwick's influence in the media.

With her cover blown, Simmons tries to escape from the HYDRA facility, but finds herself being approached by Bakshi on one side and Morse on the other. However, Morse takes out two batons and attacks the Hydra agents accompanying her, and reveals herself to be another undercover agent working for Coulson. The two of them head for the roof, where a cloaked Quinjet piloted by Triplett is waiting to pick them up. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "A Hen in the Wolf House")
- At the restaurant, Raina questions why Coulson would risk one of his own agents. As Hunter joins him, he states that he doesn't take risks in this business. With her leverage gone, Raina pleads to be taken into his custody to flee Whitehall's wrath, but is refused. Coulson then deduces that Skye's father possesses the Obelisk and asks for his location. When she gives it up and they send Raina off with a tracker injected into her leg, Skye leaves for his location alone. He is already gone by the time she arrives, but Skye finds a framed picture of him on the ground. Coulson and the others show up soon after, and find the bodies of the criminals he was working on earlier brutally murdered. Skye calls him a monster, causing her father, who was waiting outside, to smash the tablet he was watching them on and drives away. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "A Hen in the Wolf House")
- Both teams regroup back at the Playground, where Morse almost immediately gets into an argument with Hunter, her ex-husband. Simmons goes to see Fitz, while Coulson takes Skye up to his office to show her the runes. He confides in her that it frustrates him that he has no idea what the carvings mean, but Skye thinks it is a map. Back at HYDRA's offices, as the HYDRA agents are preparing to move house, Skye's father barges into Dr. Whitehall's office, effortlessly killing the HYDRA agents he sends to stop him. He then gives the Obelisk, the "Diviner" in its mother language, and offers to teach Whitehall how to unlock its secrets. Together, the two of them will take on their common foe, Phil Coulson. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "A Hen in the Wolf House")
- A team of HYDRA operatives disguised as S.H.I.E.L.D. agents attacks the United Nations while Brigadier General Glenn Talbot is delivering a speech about the danger S.H.I.E.L.D. poses to the world. In the wake of the attack, the rest of the world starts to turn against S.H.I.E.L.D., and Senator Christian Ward, the older brother of Grant Ward, takes over the mission to take them down. At the Playground, Coulson checks in on his agents in the Netherlands and prepares to deal with this new situation. Simmons recognizes the particular kind of splinter bomb the HYDRA agents used in the attack as something created by Okinawa-based Toshiro Mori, so Coulson sends Hunter and agents May and Morse to Japan. Hunter is at first reluctant to go on a mission with his ex-wife, but eventually relents. Morse and Hunter try to be nice towards each other on the way to Okinawa, each trying to break the tension between them by complimenting their looks. Once they get there, the plan is for Agent Morse, who knows Mori from her days working undercover at HYDRA, to deceive him into giving up HYDRA's plans while May and Hunter wait on the plane. She does this by flirting with him, and Mori reveals HYDRA's next target is Julien Beckers, a Belgian foreign minister who spoke against Senator Ward's crusade against S.H.I.E.L.D. While this information is being revealed, Hunter notices a HYDRA agent coming up being Morse and intervenes to stop him. Morse then takes out Mori, and reminds her ex-husband he didn't need to save her. The three of them then take off for Belgium to save Beckers from HYDRA. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "A Fractured House")
- Coulson goes to Washington to speak directly to Senator Ward in his office. Coulson reminds him that they have a common enemy in HYDRA, and warns him that he will reveal his younger brother was a HYDRA agent to the public if he does not call off the hunt for S.H.I.E.L.D. agents. If he does, however, Coulson promises to hand over Ward into his custody. Senator Ward shows a genuine interest in his brother's treatment. This surprises Coulson, who as heard all of Ward's stories about how his older brother abused him and forced him into abusing his younger brother Thomas. Senator Ward reveals that he never abused Grant and that all of those stories were lies he concocted to shield himself from any responsibility. The story about the well in particular is a lie, as Senator Ward merely found his brothers near a river with Grant wielding a screwdriver standing over Thomas. Meanwhile, Skye starts talking to Ward, trying to get all of the information out of him about her father as he can. He reveals that all the horrible things her father has done has been to protect her. The village he wiped out in the Hunan Province wasn't a village at all it was a squad of HYDRA agents there to retrieve Skye, but her mother died in the process. Now that Ward had revealed all he knew about her father, Skye informs him that she no longer needs him, and that he will soon be transferred into his brother's custody. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "A Fractured House")
- Meanwhile, Fitz, Simmons and Mack are trying to figure out why Hydra would target Beckers. They discover the splinter bombs the HYDRA agent used were first conceived by Vincent Beckers, a HYDRA scientist who worked with the Red Skull in the 1940's and Julien Beckers' grandfather. Realizing that Hunter, May and Morse are heading into a trap, Coulson tries to send word to the S.H.I.E.L.D. safe house in Bruges, but Hydra has already taken out the team of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents stationed there. Hunter barges into the safe house not long after carrying a case of beer and starts acting friendly towards the Hydra agents inside. This distraction gives Morse and May enough time to get into place, and the two of them crash through a window and start fighting HYDRA. May goes after Marcus Scarlotti, the leader of the squad of HYDRA agents, while Morse and Hunter take care of the rest. During the fight, Hunter saves Morse's life yet again, only this time she thanks him for it. Meanwhile, Scarlotti fights May using a whip-like weapon with a knife attached to its end. He uses this weapon to almost strangle May, but she gets out of it and is able to defeat him. Talbot and the military arrive soon after to take the surviving HYDRA agents into custody, and reveals that Beckers was arrested trying to cross the border. Talbot asks may how many men she lost. May answers with "six," and Talbot tells her its always a shame to lose a good soldier and holds out his hand for her to shake. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "A Fractured House")
- Back at the Playground, Senator Ward's men have arrived to take away Grant Ward. Coulson tells them not to give him an inch, or he will use it to escape. While being taken away by his brother's men, his former teammates watch in disgust and silence. Ward attempts to reach out to Skye one final time when he passes her on the way out, but she ignores him and is interrupted by Simmons, who very angrily threatens to kill him if she ever sees him again. Meanwhile, Senator Ward holds a press conference to reveal his brother's affiliation with HYDRA and that he will continue the hunt for HYDRA, an organization he says is a threat to the world. Ward meanwhile is able to slide the cuffs off his wrists, and kills the envoy transporting him to his brother. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "A Fractured House")
- Elsewhere, a man walks into a tattoo parlor to finish a series of tattoos he's been getting. The man takes off his shirt, revealing he has tattooed the alien glyphs all over his body. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "A Fractured House")
November[]
- A woman takes Sebastian Derik back to her apartment. They make small talk over whether they already know each other. Derik takes off his shirt, revealing his tattoos, and kills the woman. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The Writing on the Wall")
- At the Playground, Coulson is busy making his carvings when Skye interrupts him. May, Morse, Hunter, and Triplett are on mission tracking down Grant Ward since he escaped his brother's custody. Skye lets Coulson know that one of her contacts shared with her a murder where the victim, the woman from before had Coulson's carvings carved into her corpse. Coulson recognizes the woman as a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent, but Skye finds that her record says she died five years ago. Coulson and Skye go to New York to investigate the scene, and find that she had made numerous paintings of the carvings before she died. They take the body back to the playground with her, where Simmons discovers she had the GH.325 serum in her blood, meaning she was a test subject in the T.A.H.I.T.I. project. Realizing that the killer must be another T.A.H.I.T.I. test subject, Coulson puts himself in the memory machine to see if he can uncover his identity. The machine takes Coulson back to his days running the T.A.H.I.T.I. project, and forces him to re-witness the deterioration of the test subjects' mental states as they start making the carvings. Coulson solved the problem by having one of the lead scientists on the project implant the test subjects with false memories and give them a new life. As Coulson is reliving these memories, he starts convulsing and shouting how he needs to know about the carvings, forcing the others to take him out of the machine. They've narrowed the identity of the killer down to two former S.H.I.E.L.D. agents - Hank Thompson and Sebastian Derik. Skye privately tells the Director that he needs to stay behind, as his condition is worsening, but Coulson throws her into Ward's cell and leaves on his own. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The Writing on the Wall")
- After tracking Ward across the country, Hunter follows him to Boston, where he meets up with Bakshi at a bar. Inside, Ward offers to get Bakshi close enough to Coulson to "put a bullet in him point blank." Hunter lets the other agents on the hunt for him know about the meeting. They regroup in Boston, but once they go into the bar they find Ward killed the bartender and tied up Bakshi. The agents take him into their custody and bring him back to the Playground. Meanwhile, Coulson arrives at the house of Hank Thompson, and demands at gunpoint he reveal anything he knows about the carvings. Thompson tells him he couldn't help either of them as the killer, Sebastian Derik, sneaks up behind him and knocks him out. Derik then ties up Thompson, his family, and Coulson in the Thompson's barn, where Thompson and his son have built an elaborate model train set. Derik tells Coulson that he could bring back his memories by experiencing pain, which is why he was killing the former T.A.H.I.T.I. test subjects. Coulson, meanwhile, realizes Thompson's train set was actually the runes, revealing they are meant to be viewed in three dimensions. As Derik is threatening Coulson with a knife, Thompson manages to cut out of his ties and free his family. Derik realizes his prisoner was escaping and throws his knife at him, but Thompson manages to catch the blade in mid-air and throw it back at him. Derik dives out of the way, but the knife cuts Coulson out of his ties. Derik attacks Coulson while he tries to get his assailant to realize what he has discovered about the carvings. Coulson eventually gets Derik over a railing looking down on the train set, but Derik refuses to open his eyes. Simmons and Skye, who was freed after Simmons realized what Coulson had done arrive on the scene and pull their guns on Coulson and Derik, threatening to shoot both of them as Coulson may have gone crazy like Garrett had. Just as they are about to open fire, Derik opens his eyes and realizes what Coulson had been trying to show him - the carvings aren't as much a map as they are the blueprints to a city. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The Writing on the Wall")
- After turning Derik over to the authorities, Coulson and the team return to the Playground. Bakshi had since been placed in Ward's cell, and Coulson orders Skye to dig through his smart phone to uncover any information about HYDRA and their plans. Coulson then debriefs his team on what he found out about the carvings. He no longer has the cravings to make them, and plans to use this information to get ahead of HYDRA in their race to uncover its secrets. Elsewhere, Ward shaves his head and facial hair and calls Bakshi's phone. Skye answers the call while pretending to be a HYDRA agent, but Ward immediately sees through her façade. He says she hopes she likes the "gift" he gave her with Bakshi, and promises that he'll be sending more gifts her way in the near future. Ward then hangs up, and starts making his way towards his brother. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The Writing on the Wall")
- Ward also appears to join in an alliance with Whitehall, after having first tortured his brother Christian into confessing past sins, and then apparently murdering him and their parents. Meanwhile, Coulson leads a team to hack a USAF mapping satellite, which they successfully use to find the hidden city. At the same time, Coulson meets "The Doctor", who knows that the Obelisk, which he calls the Diviner, is a key that must be taken to the city by someone it deems to be worthy. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The Things We Bury")
December[]
- The team splits up, with Coulson and Morse leading a group to begin searching for the hidden city under San Juan, and May, Skye, and Hunter leaving to help Sam and Billy Koenig rescue Raina from a Hydra attempt to kidnap her in Vancouver. Raina tells Skye that they are two of the "worthy ones" who could enter the temple in the city, and that any others who try will die. She also reveals that the temple and the Diviner was built by the Kree. Skye tries to warn the main team, but Whitehall blocks their communications, and Ward boards the Bus to take Raina. He also takes Skye, promising to take her to her father, and in exchange agrees to let the others go. Mack has already entered the city where he touches a pattern on the floor which causes him great pain and compels him to attack the others, until he is subdued and falls down a shaft back into the city. Whitehall is surprised to learn that Ward took Skye, and did not destroy the Bus as ordered, and so gives Agent 33 orders to do so. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. ...Ye Who Enter Here)
- May evades HYDRA’s attempt to shoot down the Bus, while Ward brings Skye to meet her father. He tells her that his name is Cal, that hers is Daisy, and that Whitehall killed her mother. Whitehall then arrives at the Hydra base in San Juan where they are drilling directly into the temple. He immobilizes Cal and menaces Skye, but is interrupted as Coulson's team assaults the base. Coulson kills Whitehall, devastating Cal, who attempts to avenge the loss of his own opportunity at vengeance by trying to kill Coulson himself. Skye shoots Ward and forces Cal to leave, before following Raina and the Diviner into the temple. Agent 33, now with no purpose since Whitehall’s death, assists Ward in escaping. Coulson and Triplett race to the temple to help Skye, with Triplett making it in and Coulson being delayed by Mack, who soon after breaks from the city's control when the temple closes itself, and the Diviner opens, revealing Terrigen Crystals, it subsequently releases a small burst of Terrigen Mist. Skye and Raina are encased in cocoons, while Triplett is killed by the Diviner. Skye erupts out of her cocoon, her new earthquake abilities causing tremors around the city. Elsewhere, another Diviner reveals to a man with no eyes that "there's a new one". (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "What They Become")
2015[]
- In the wake of Whitehall's death Coulson looks to hit back at Hydra, who are looking at the imprisoned Bakshi as a potential replacement for the leadership role. S.H.I.E.L.D. enacts a plan that sees Bakshi escaping and leading them to other high-ranking Hydra agents, who are then killed. In Puerto Rico, the alien city is flooded, but not before Raina escapes, having transformed into a monstrous creature. When Cal turns his back on her, reminding her that she got what she wanted, Raina attempts to commit suicide, but she is taken by the man with no eyes, Gordon, who can teleport. Fitz and Skye realize that she has also been transformed she created the earthquake in San Juan, but has no control over this ability. Fitz agrees to keep her secret, and hides the truth from the rest of the team. Meanwhile, a model car that Mack built for Coulson scans the latter's office and finds the "toolbox" that previous S.H.I.E.L.D. Director Nick Fury gave to Coulson. Mack secretly reports this to Morse. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Aftershocks")
March[]
- Lady Sif comes down from Asgard, her memory wiped by a mysterious enemy. Coulson and his team arrive to help her and find that she does not remember their previous friendship. They eventually discover that Sif was last seen battling an incredibly strong man in Portugal. The team manages to capture him and after watching him restore Sif's memories with his truncheon they learn that he is a Kree named Vin-Tak who has come to destroy those affected by the Diviner. In the ensuing argument, Skye's powers are revealed to the team. Sif and Vin-Tak both attempt to capture her but Vin-Tak has his memories wiped by Bobbi and Sif is convinced to stand down by Coulson, though she later warns him that Skye may be a greater danger than they realize. In the aftermath, Sif takes Vin-Tak back to the Kree homeworld and Skye moves into the Bus's padded cell to avoid hurting the others. Meanwhile, Bobbi tries to break things off with Hunter after Mack warns her that he is getting too close. Hunter angrily confronts Mack about this and his suspicions that Mack and Bobbi are hiding something, but Mack knocks him out. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Who You Really Are")
- Cal recruits dangerous individuals from S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Gifted Index to settle his vendetta with Coulson. Coulson and Morse investigate, and are lead to the former's hometown of Manitowoc, where the criminals have seized the local school stadium. May enlists Dr. Andrew Garner, her ex-husband and a psychoanalyst to work with Skye, who is now on the Index herself. During one of Garner's talks with Skye, Coulson requests back-up, prompting May to fly the Bus to Manitowoc, with Garner and Skye on board. At the stadium, Coulson is confronted by Cal, while May arrives bluffing to kill Skye. In the stand-off, Gordon appears and teleports away with Cal. As Coulson's team subdue Cal's group, Skye starts causing tremors, only stopping this by directing her abilities inward, causing hairline fractures throughout her body. Elsewhere, Mack hides Hunter in a safe house until they are extracted by an organization that Mack calls "the real S.H.I.E.L.D."; and Gordon takes Cal to his superiors. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "One of Us")
- On Dr. Andrew Garner's recommendation, Coulson pulls Skye from active duty, and leaves her at a safe house with gloves designed to help repress her abilities, asking her to take some time to learn to control her powers. Ward and Agent 33 hunt down the man who created the technology that allowed Agent 33 to take on May's appearance. He fixes her mask so she can revert to her original appearance, albeit still scarred, and change her appearance to anyone she wishes. Using this, they infiltrate Talbot's base and break out Bakshi, who S.H.I.E.L.D. had handed over as a sign of good faith. From Bakshi they learn about Agent 33's life before he brainwashed her, including her name, Kara, before brainwashing him themselves. Mack introduces Hunter to Robert Gonzales and the leadership of the "real S.H.I.E.L.D.", founded on the ideal of transparency, rather than Fury's mantra of compartmentalization. They see Coulson and his erratic behavior as a threat, and as Hunter escapes, Morse decides to attack Coulson's group immediately. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Love in the Time of HYDRA")
- Coulson confronts Mack about the model car and his behavior, deducing that he is a mole. Morse steals the toolbox from Coulson's office and takes over the base's systems, allowing her and Mack to evade capture, and the rest of their faction to attack. This organization was formed when S.H.I.E.L.D. fell and Morse, Gonzales, Mack, and Hartley disobeyed Fury's orders onboard the S.H.I.E.L.D. aircraft carrier Iliad, saving hundreds of loyal S.H.I.E.L.D. agents. Gonzales realized all the harm caused by Fury and his secrets, and now wants S.H.I.E.L.D. to continue in a new and better fashion. Meanwhile, Gordon visits Skye to tell her of his home, where she can be safe and learn to control her powers. Gonzales and his colleagues are also wary of other alien/superhuman phenomena, including Skye, but when Morse leads a team to detain Skye, the latter accidentally unleashes her abilities. Horrified at what she can do, Skye agrees to go with Gordon. May helps Coulson escape from Gonzales' control, and he soon regroups with Hunter. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "One Door Closes")
April[]
- Gordon takes Skye to Afterlife, a haven, where Lincoln Campbell explains to her that most people who are transformed are chosen and prepared for it, and then a guide is selected to help these people master their new abilities. Skye's guide is the founder of Afterlife, Jiaying, who is also her (un-revealed and somehow alive) mother. When Gonzales asks Fitz and Simmons to help them open Fury's toolbox, Fitz refuses and decides to leave S.H.I.E.L.D., while Simmons agrees to help, though this is a ruse so that Fitz can take the toolbox with him. Coulson and Hunter steal a quinjet from Gonzales' soldiers with the help of Agent Mike Peterson, who has been hunting Hydra scientist Dr. List, and found him experimenting on gifted people. With the appearance of Peterson, Gonzales fears how many super powered operatives Coulson has, but believes that he still deserves fair representation, and so asks May to serve on their S.H.I.E.L.D. board. Coulson soon realizes that the person most involved in this Hydra threat that they can turn to is Ward. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Afterlife")
- Gonzales make May in charge of the Playground. May than look into Coulson actions since became Director, finding that Coulson has been secretly building another base and consulting with Garner, which Mack believes is because he is creating a gifted army. Skye is training with Jiaying, and begins to focus her abilities to manipulate objects' natural frequencies. Jiaying soon reveals that she is Skye's mother, Cal had pieced her back together and her healing factor revived her, and they searched for Skye, who S.H.I.E.L.D. had taken, until Jiaying realized what monsters they had become, and left Cal to build a new and peaceful life. Their relationship must remain a secret because once a member of their group stole Terrigen crystals for her daughter, who then forced her mother to hurt others to feed on their pain. They were stopped when May killed them both, scarring her for life. However, Jiaying and Skye do agree to join Cal for dinner, a moment that Raina apparently foresaw in a nightmare. Fitz opens the toolbox, and uses it to contact Coulson. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Melinda")
- Fitz manages to elude Gonzales' agents to meet up with Coulson, Hunter and Peterson, who reveal they intend to recruit Ward to find Skye. They capture Ward and Agent 33 in Tiajuana and make a deal to infiltrate Hydra in exchange for giving Ward a clean slate by wiping his memories. Using a brainwashed Bakshi to get close to Hydra leader, Doctor List, they learn that List had been following Gordon and seeks to capture him. Meanwhile, Jiaying seeks to banish Cal from Afterlife, but Skye, fearing he may harm innocents, goes with him before calling the Playground for help. Lincoln is soon revealed to be spying on them before they are attacked by Hydra, resulting in Lincoln being captured. Skye is about to be reunited with Coulson before Gordon appears and takes her and Cal away. With no options left, Coulson surrenders himself to Bobbi and Mack. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The Frenemy of My Enemy")
- Coulson offers to take his own team to infiltrate List's base and free Peterson and Campbell. Raina foresees Skye saving Campbell's life, and they convince Gordon to take her to S.H.I.E.L.D. without telling Jiaying, who allows Cal to stay in Afterlife (though he does accidentally reveal to the community that Skye is their daughter). Coulson, May, Skye, Fitz, Simmons, and Ward infiltrate the Hydra base with the help of Bakshi on the inside. Simmons and Ward save Peterson, but Simmons attempts to kill Ward for all that he has done to them. Bakshi sacrifices himself to save Ward, who decides to leave by himself. Skye does save Campbell, while Coulson discovers the base of Hydra's leader, Baron Wolfgang von Strucker. He gives the location to Maria Hill so that the Avengers can defeat Hydra. Ward leaves Kara with S.H.I.E.L.D., hoping that she can reclaim her lost life as an agent, while Gonzales reveals to Morse his intentions to use Skye and Campbell to get to their "friends". Raina foresees metal men destroying cities. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The Dirty Half Dozen")
May[]
- Events of Avengers: Age of Ultron
- The new S.H.I.E.L.D. board is grateful to Coulson after Fury uses Coulson's secret helicarrier to help the Avengers save the world, and they agree to merge their factions, with Coulson remaining as director, and the board acting as his oversight and advisory council. Raina has a vision of an ancient Kree weapon, designed to destroy the Inhumans, those who were altered by the Kree. Gordon takes her to search for it, finding it in the cargo hold of Gonzales' ship. S.H.I.E.L.D. discovers the intruders, and uses Hydra technology to track them when they teleport away, learning the location of Afterlife. Palamas reveals Ward's true plan when she helps him kidnap Morse. Gonzales leads a delegation to Afterlife to meet Jiaying and index the community. Raina foresees war if Jiaying meets with S.H.I.E.L.D. but it is assumed that she is lying in order to seize power. When Jiaying and Gonzales meet, she delivers Cal into S.H.I.E.L.D. custody, before killing Gonzales and shooting herself to start a war with S.H.I.E.L.D. rather than let her people be indexed. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Scars")
- S.H.I.E.L.D. quickly realizes Jiaying's ruse, but the people of Afterlife, including Skye, fall for it, and agree to fight alongside her. Ward tortures Morse, wanting her to confess to the fact that she had revealed Palamas' location to Hydra while undercover there. Realizing that Morse is confident in her actions, Ward sets a trap that will end with a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent, presumably Hunter, being killed in front of her. However, Morse takes the bullet for Hunter, barely surviving, while Ward accidentally kills Palamas while she is disguised as May. As part of Jiaying's plan, Cal takes a serum that he created to give himself Inhuman strength. However, it is killing him, and Coulson helps him see the truth: Jiaying is the true monster, and ever since he had pieced her back together she had been convincing him to do terrible things, including bringing her humans, whose life she absorbs in order to heal and remain young. Cal asks Coulson to let him help them save Skye. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "S.O.S. Part One")
- After failing to convince Skye that Jiaying is dangerous, Raina confronts Jiaying, who kills her. Seeing this, Skye turns her back on Jiaying. The Inhumans take her prisoner, and attack the S.H.I.E.L.D. ship, planning to use their artificial Terrigen crystals (laced with Diviner metal) to reveal all Inhumans, and kill all humans. Mack frees Skye, who warns Coulson of Jiaying's plan; Coulson, Fitz, and Cal infiltrate the ship. Fitz kills Gordon, preventing him from unleashing Terrigen mist through the ship's ventilation, but Coulson loses an arm when he stops one of the crystals from shattering. Skye confronts Jiaying, who is attempting to spread more crystals around the world with a Quinjet. When Skye pushes the plane into the ocean, Jiaying begins draining her life, until Cal kills her. S.H.I.E.L.D. later wipes Cal's memories, allowing him to live a new life in peace, while Skye joins a new S.H.I.E.L.D. team of gifted people, May takes a break from S.H.I.E.L.D. with Garner, and Ward plans to lead Hydra against S.H.I.E.L.D. in revenge. As traces of the crystals from the ocean make their way around the world anyway, the Kree weapon absorbs Simmons. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "S.O.S. Part Two")
September[]
- After developing metal-melting abilities, Joey Gutierrez is saved from the hostile Advanced Threat Containment Unit by S.H.I.E.L.D. agents. When agent Daisy Johnson struggles to explain to Gutierrez his Inhuman heritage, activated by exposure to the recently released compound Terrigen, she seeks the help of Lincoln Campbell, who taught her but now wants to live a normal life. S.H.I.E.L.D. Director Phil Coulson finds the leader of the ATCU, Rosalind Price, and the two realize that there is a third party interested in new Inhumans, the monstrous Inhuman Lash, who attacks Daisy and Lincole. The subsequent arrival of the ATCU causes both Lash and Campbell to flee. President Matthew Ellis officially announces the ATCU, now on the trail of Campbell, as the replacement of the underground S.H.I.E.L.D. Meanwhile, Agent Leo Fitz acquires an ancient Hebrew scroll describing the Kree Monolith that consumed his partner Jemma Simmons as "Death" (Hebrew: מוות), which Fitz is unable to accept. Simmons, in actual fact, is on a desolate alien planet. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Laws of Nature")
- Dr. Andrew Garner evaluates Gutierrez and deems him not yet ready to join the Secret Warriors, Daisy's potential team of Inhumans. Grant Ward, looking to rebuild HYDRA, recruits Werner von Strucker, son of Wolfgang von Strucker HYDRA previous leader, and sends him undercover to Garner's psychology class. Tasked with hunting down and killing Ward, Agent Lance Hunter tracks down Garner's ex-wife Agent Melinda May, who has been on leave from S.H.I.E.L.D. for several months. May is convinced not to run from her life despite difficulties in her relationships with Garner and Coulson, and eventually agrees to join Hunter in his mission. Fitz realizes that the Monolith is a portal, and S.H.I.E.L.D. enlists Asgardian Elliot Randolph, who takes them to an ancient English castle where a deteriorating machine was constructed to open the Monolith using vibrations. Daisy is able to replicate the machine with her abilities, despite the portal causing her physical harm. Fitz enters the portal and finds Simmons, bringing her back as Johnson's power destroys the Monolith. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Purpose in the Machine")
- The ATCU closes in on Campbell, who is betrayed by an old friend when the ATCU asks for public help in capturing the "alien". He calls Daisy for help. Coulson meets with Price, asking her to let S.H.I.E.L.D. take Campbell instead, but realizes that they know of Daisy too, and that to keep her safe he must let the ATCU take Campbell. Unaware of this, Daisy finds Campbell, but is followed by the ATCU. Campbell attacks them and escapes, so they try to take Daisy instead. To save her, Coulson agrees to work with Price to capture the Inhumans together. Hunter and May meet with a contact Hunter has in HYDRA, who takes them to the new initiation system, Hunter must fight to the death to prove himself worthy of HYDRA. Hunter fights his old friend, kills him, and is accepted into HYDRA's ranks. Fitz attempts to help Simmons acclimatize to her old life, but she is struggling with both the different physics of Earth, and mental trauma. Later, Agent Bobbi Morse finds Simmons wanting to reopen the portal and return to the planet. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "A Wanted (Inhu)man")
- Daisy discovers an encoded email at the scene of a Lash attack, and traces it to Dwight Frye, an Inhuman who is negatively affected by the presence of other Inhumans that Lash has been using to find targets. May visits S.H.I.E.L.D. to warn Coulson that Hunter's mission is becoming too personal and reckless, but refuses to talk to Andrew Garner, who had left her while they were trying to rekindle their relationship. The ATCU takes Frye, with Daisy and Mack allowed to go with them to see their base and Inhuman facilities. However, Lash ambushes their van, kills Frye, and injures Mack, but spares Daisy, who witnesses him transforming into an ordinary human afterward. Hunter is brought in on a mission with HYDRA, but is seen by Ward and attacks him. May arrives to help, but Ward reveals Werner von Strucker is prepared to kill Garner unless Hunter and May allow him to escape. May, unable to sacrifice Andrew, is willing to back off, but Hunter attacks Ward, shooting him in the back as he flees. In retaliation, Werner seemingly kills Andrew. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Devils You Know")
- Simmons agrees to tell Fitz of her six months on the planet. After being dragged through the portal, she found herself on an apparently sun-less, deserted planet, where she came across a pool of water and an alien life form inhabiting it, allowing her to sustain herself until she met stranded astronaut Will Daniels. Daniels had traveled through the portal with a team of scientists in 2001, when the monolith was in the possession of NASA, but over time they had been driven mad by the planet and an evil entity upon it, each eventually dying. Simmons realized that the opening of the portal can be predicted by studying the stars and alignment of the planet's moons, and over months they were able to anticipate the next opening of the portal. When they missed it, Simmons lost hope, but found solace with Daniels and fell for him. When they saw a flare sent through the portal by Fitz, Simmons was able to make it to him while Daniels distracted the entity, but now Simmons wants to reopen the portal so they can return to save Daniels. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "4,722 Hours")
- S.H.I.E.L.D. finds Garner alive after Strucker fled the scene. Hunter is replaced by Morse on the Ward mission; she and May begin tracking Werner. Since Johnson and Mack never made it to the ATCU facility, Coulson visits it himself, while Daisy, Mack, and Hunter believe that Price's right-hand man Banks may be Lash. They find Banks, knock him out, and take some of his blood, before sneak a camera into a building that he was headed to. As an analysis proves that Banks is not an Inhuman, they realize that they are at the ATCU facility, and witness Coulson seeing a captured Inhuman arrive in suspended animation. Price tells Coulson that she wants to 'cure' the Inhumans because she couldn't help her husband, who died of cancer. May and Morse trace Strucker to the apartment of Gideon Malick, who Strucker sought sanctuary with but who turned Strucker over to Hydra in exchange for a future favor. As Morse fights off the HYDRA members, the dying Werner tells May that Garner survived his attack because Garner is Lash. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Among Us Hide...")
- May confronts Andrew, and he explains that while researching for S.H.I.E.L.D. he opened a ledger of known Inhumans, belonging to Daisy Johnson's late mother Jiaying, which was booby trapped to release Terrigen Mist on its reader. When Garner was subsequently drawn to an "unworthy" Inhuman, transformed into Lash, and killed him, Andrew broke things off with May. Coulson joins Rosalind Price for a meeting with the President about the outbreak of enhanced people, but is interrupted en route by Lincoln, who has deduced that Lash must have access to the ledger. S.H.I.E.L.D. and the ATCU track down Andrew and May, the latter being held hostage, and Coulson tries to talk down Andrew. Garner's Lash instincts want him to kill Lincoln, and after the latter attacks Lash only May is able to calm him down and return him to his human form. Lincoln warns that the Lash form will soon be permanent, so May has the ATCU put Andrew in stasis until their cure is complete. Coulson then spends the night with Rosalind, who is secretly working with Malick. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Chaos Theory")
- Malick knows that Ward wants access to one of Wolfgang von Strucker's vaults, said to contain the true power of HYDRA. Malick sends men to kill Ward, as Ward's vendetta doesn't fit into his plans, but Ward defeats them and tortures the vault's location from them. Hunter and Morse enter the ATCU disguised as FBI agents investigating a security breach triggered by Garner's containment module. Morse discovers that the ATCU is keeping the Inhumans offsite, and are trying to make more instead of curing them. Coulson confronts Price, but she was unaware of this because her long-time business partner, Malick, had been running that side. Ward breaks into the vault and is confronted by Malick. As FitzSimmons realize that Daniels was sent through the portal by HYDRA as a sacrifice to the entity, Malick explains to Ward that the entity is an ancient Inhuman who was banished through the portal, and HYDRA was founded to return it to Earth. Malick agrees to help Ward take down S.H.I.E.L.D., if Ward helps him build an Inhuman army and bring the entity back. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Many Heads, One Tale")
November[]
- At dinner with Coulson, Price reveals plans to confront Malick before being abruptly sniped by Ward and dying in Coulson's arms. Promoting Mack to interim director of S.H.I.E.L.D., Coulson sets out for revenge and goes off-book with Hunter and Morse to kidnap Ward's younger brother Thomas. Fitz and Simmons go with Banks to investigate the ATCU, but Banks is killed and the two are captured by HYDRA. Simmons is tortured until Fitz agrees to help HYDRA return the Inhuman to Earth, while Coulson uses a phone call between the Ward brothers, where Grant attempts to justify himself and his past actions to Thomas, to locate HYDRA they have set up base at the English castle. Mack clears Gutierrez and Campbell for field duty, and mobilizes the rest of S.H.I.E.L.D. for a rescue mission. HYDRA reopens the portal, and Malick convinces Ward to lead a HYDRA team through it with Fitz, and return with the Inhuman, promising that Coulson will die when they return. Determined to kill Ward, Coulson manages to enter the portal as well. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Closure")
- Fitz finds Daniels and convinces Ward that they will need him to find the exit point. Mack sends May and The Caterpillars Daisy, Lincoln, and Joey to find Simmons while he, Bobbi, and Hunter infiltrate the castle and secure the portal room. Simmons escapes herself after Campbell shuts down HYDRA's power, and discovers several Inhumans that Malick has gathered as an army, including Garner. Simmons agrees to unleash Lash on HYDRA before making her way to the others. Fitz and Daniels lead Ward to the ruins of an ancient civilization where they manage to get away, while Coulson catches up to Ward and overpowers him, forcing him to follow them. At the exit, Daniels attacks Fitz, the Inhuman had killed Will Daniels as Simmons escaped, and now inhabits his body. Ward attacks Coulson when he is distracted by Fitz, but Coulson uses his prosthetic hand to kill Ward, while Fitz uses a flare to destroy Daniels' body. Fitz and Coulson return to Earth, but the Inhuman, secretly does as well now inhabiting Ward's body. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Maveth")
- S.H.I.E.L.D agents in Bogotá investigating an Inhuman who is stealing weapons from the police. The woman, Elena Rodriguez, is apprehended despite her super speed with the limitation of returning to where she began moving from after each heartbeat, and reveals that she was destroying the weapons to prevent their misuse by the corrupt police officers. Coulson uses the machine that restored his memories on Werner who is in a vegetative state following brutal treatment by Malick's men and discovers where he contacted Malick. Coulson uses the phone there to find many of Malick's facilities, which are promptly sold by Malick. The police kidnap Morse and Hunter using their own Inhuman, who can temporarily petrify anyone using eye contact, and Rodriguez aids S.H.I.E.L.D. in rescuing them. Though the other Inhuman is captured by HYDRA. Rodriguez agrees to join the Secret Warriors, she remains in Colombia, on call. President Ellis informs Coulson that the new ATCU head, Glenn Talbot will report directly to S.H.I.E.L.D. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Bouncing Back")
2016[]
January[]
- Coulson and Talbot meet with delegates from several countries to discuss Inhumans, accompanied by Carl Creel a human who survived terrigenisis thanks to his powers, and whose blood Simmons believes could be used to "cure" Inhumans who have not yet transitioned. Coulson suspects that one of the delegates is an inside man for Malick, and sends Hunter, Bobbi, and May to find who, with Hunter, seeing Creel acting suspiciously, discovers Talbot's son in ATCU stasis. They also discover that the Australian government has captured an Inhuman, Eden Fesi, for experimentation. Talbot turns on Coulson when Malick arrives, the latter convincing the delegates that Coulson is HYDRA, and that they should carry out their plans with Malick instead, namely the building of an Inhuman sanctuary in Russia. May saves Talbot's son, allowing him to escape with Coulson. Hunter and Bobbi track Malick to Russia, S.H.I.E.L.D. agents rescue Fesi, and Hive restores Ward's corpse to full strength by sacrificing several humans. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The Inside Man")
March[]
- Hunter and Bobbi follow Malick to a decommissioned facility in Siberia, where Russian delegate Anton Petrov wishes to build the sanctuary, against the wishes of Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Olshenko. Olshenko sends his attache to shut down the operation, but he is murdered by General Androvich, an opposition minister and Inhuman whose shadow is made of sentient darkforce. Malick suggests that the Prime Minister be invited to the facility himself, and that Androvich be unleashed upon him. Hunter kills Petrov to protect Olshenko, while Morse kills Androvich to destroy his shadow. Olshenko, unaware of the attempt on his life, has the two arrested. Their Interpol interrogator threatens to turn them over to the Russians for execution unless they confirm that S.H.I.E.L.D. still exists, but Morse and Hunter refuse. Ellis intervenes with Coulson; they save the pair's lives, on the condition that they never work for the U.S. government again. With the option of working in secret out of the field, Bobbi and Hunter instead choose to leave S.H.I.E.L.D. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Parting Shot")
April[]
- Mack, struggling with the departure of Bobbi and Hunter, takes time off to be with his brother Ruben. When an online hate group called the Watchdogs uses Howard Stark-developed nitramene bombs to perform a terrorist attack on an ATCU facility, Coulson suspects that former S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Felix Blake who had been committed to the advancement of Nitramene technology and has been missing since having his back broken by Deathlok has taken over the group. Ruben becomes disillusioned with Mack when he leaves to investigate a Watchdog base and accidentally reveals his S.H.I.E.L.D. agent status, but Mack is able to improve their relationship when he fends off a group of the terrorists that attack the brothers. Coulson takes Campbell to search Blake's known safehouses, and the two are confronted by Blake in one via hologram; he reveals that HYDRA is backing him and the Watchdogs in their crusade to kill all Inhumans, and S.H.I.E.L.D. realizes that the attack was a cover for Hydra to steal something from the ATCU, a nuclear missile. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Watchdogs")
- S.H.I.E.L.D. picks up an emergency call about Daisy, and finds the caller, who was shown a vision of his death by the Inhuman Charles Hinton, in time for him to learn Daisy's name before being murdered by HYDRA, who capture Charles. Daisy however touch Hinton, giving her a vision of his death. Hive promises to reward Malick for sending Ward through the portal with "true power". They use Charles to obtain a powerful exoskeleton from a private corporation. Desperate to prove that fate is not fixed, S.H.I.E.L.D. seeks to avoid Johnson's vision from playing out by sending May to find Charles instead of Daisy, as the vision showed, but at the last minute Garner arrives, stating that he wants to say goodbye to May before he transforms into Lash for good. Subsequently, Daisy goes to the corporation, where S.H.I.E.L.D. has tracked HYDRa and Charles, and faces Malick and his exoskeleton. Charles saves Daisy by distracting Malick, giving them both visions, Daisys's is of a S.H.I.E.L.D. agents dying in space and Malick is unknown. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Spacetime")
- Gideon tells his daughter Stephanie of his vision: he saw his death at the hands of Hive. Daisy and Lincole track down an untransitioned Inhuman with knowledge of Hive, who gives them an ancient Kree device, while the rest of S.H.I.E.L.D. captures Giyera, Gideon's right-hand man who is now loyal to Hive. A telekinetic Inhuman, Giyera takes control of their plane and directs it to a HYDRA base, with most of S.H.I.E.L.D. as his prisoners. Hive comes to the Malicks' house, and reveals to Gideon that he has his brother Nathaniel's memories. Hive elects to not yet kill Gideon, but in punishment for his betrayal of Nathaniel instead murders Stephanie. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Paradise Lost")
- Daisy and Lincole unite with Gutierrez and Rodriguez as the Secret Warriors, and infiltrate the HYDRA base to free S.H.I.E.L.D. Gutierrez kills Lucio in the process, while Lincole captures Malick. During questioning, Malick explains to Coulson that Hive can infect the minds of Inhumans, warning him against trusting any of the Secret Warriors. Simmons confirms from an autopsy of Lucio that Hive parasites infected his brain, and the same could have happened to any of the Secret Warriors. When Malick is found dead, the human agents trap the Inhumans in quarantine and search their belongings. They discover the Kree device in Campbell's possession rather than in asset lockup, Lincole protests, but the other three are released. That night, Daisy visits Lincole and offers to break him out. Lincole refuses when he realizes that Hive is controlling her, and used her to murder Malick and frame Lincole. Daisy leaves on her own, creating an earthquake to destroy the S.H.I.E.L.D. base with everyone inside. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The Team")
- Escaping the base mostly unharmed, S.H.I.E.L.D. knows that Daisy could have killed them all, and believe there is hope of freeing her from Hive. Fitz and Simmons seek out transhumanist Holden Radcliffe, who believes in the improvement of humanity through enhancement, and whose studies of parasites could help with counteracting Hive's abilities. Hive turns Alisha Whitley a duplicating Inhuman ally of S.H.I.E.L.D. and James after first giving him terrigen which allows him to imbue objects with fire to his cause, and takes this fledgling army to interrupt Fitz and Simmons. Daisy warns Fitz of her vision; Hive's memories of Will Daniels petition Simmons to move on with her life with Fitz and the others kidnap Radcliffe, taking him to a town that Hive bought with Malick's remaining fortune, where he intends to recreate the original Kree experiments that made the Inhumans. Talbot and the ATCU use Malick's final intel to completely dismantle HYDRA's remaining infrastructure, and Fitz and Simmons finally consummate their relationship. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The Singularity")
May[]
- Radcliffe's first attempt to turn humans into Inhumans fails, as he requires Kree blood. Fitz and Simmons attempt to combine their potential Inhuman cure with what they know of Radcliffe's research, but require an Inhuman test subject. Lincoln volunteers himself, severely compromising his immune system, and seemingly proving that the cure cannot free the Inhumans of Hive's connection. S.H.I.E.L.D. locates the town, and Mack and May lead a team to hopefully free Daisy and the others Inhumans by simply killing Hive. The latter activates the Kree artifact, a beacon which calls two Kree reapers to the town. They promptly murder Whitley. Daisy and Hive confront a reaper each, with Daisy managing to begin harvesting hers' blood until the process is sabotaged by Mack. Hive, not realizing this, destroys the other reaper. Daisy attacks Mack, nearly killing him, but is interrupted by May, who helps Mack retreat with the rest of their team. Daisy then offers her own blood as an alternative for Radcliffe's experiment, as it was recently infused with Kree blood. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Failed Experiments")
- Events of Captain America: Civil War.
- Following the signing of the Sokovia Accords, Talbot and Coulson discuss registering the Inhuman agents, with Coulson taking Talbot to the S.H.I.E.L.D. base to introduce him to Rodriguez and Lash, explain the Hive situation, and show him the need to keep the Secret Warriors anonymous. Hive captures several Watchdogs for Radcliffe's next experiment attempt, they are horrifically mutated into primitive Inhumans, but do fall under Hive's sway, prompting him to proceed with his ultimate plan to use a warhead what was stolen from the ATCU to spread Radcliffe's new pathogen around the world and transform all humans into these primitives. Lincole contacts Daisy and convinces her that he wants to be with her. Hacking into S.H.I.E.L.D.'s systems as her blood is drained, Daisy helps him escape the S.H.I.E.L.D. base in a quinjet. However, this was a ruse on S.H.I.E.L.D.'s part, with Lash arriving instead of Lincole. Lash uses his abilities to free Daisy from Hive's sway, but is killed by James. Daisy escapes back to S.H.I.E.L.D. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Emancipation")
- S.H.I.E.L.D. keeps Daisy in containment while she is showing withdrawal symptoms after losing her connection with Hive, but her intel allows them to find the base where Hive is attempting to launch the warhead. With Talbot's military contacts S.H.I.E.L.D. is able to disable the rocket, while a team of agents infiltrates the base, captures Hive, and extracts Radcliffe, with the latter agreeing to cooperate with S.H.I.E.L.D. and revealing that the Primitive process is irreversible. Giyera and James steal the warhead, and while S.H.I.E.L.D. is focused on locating it, they detonate a bomb that they had smuggled into the S.H.I.E.L.D. base which releases some of Radcliffe's pathogen. Several S.H.I.E.L.D. agents transform into Primitives and free Hive from his containment, and he proceeds to steal Zephyr One, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s airborne mobile command that could take the warhead high enough for the pathogen to transform most of humanity. Johnson escapes and confronts Hive, begging him to connect with her again. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Absolution")
- Hive realizes that Lash has made Johnson impervious to his influence, and so instead overpowers and abducts her. Giyera and James bring him the warhead, while many of the Primitives remain to kill the rest of S.H.I.E.L.D. May and Fitz infiltrate Zephyr One and free Johnson. Fitz kills Giyera, while Coulson and the others evade the Primitives and escape the base in a quinjet, boarding Zephyr One. Coulson plans to send the warhead into space in the quinjet to detonate safely, and Daisy believes that she must go with it to atone for her actions under Hive's sway, and fulfill her vision. She enters the quinjet where she is confronted by Hive, but Lincole throws her out and overrides the jet's controls, ascending to space, where the warhead detonates and kills both him and Hive, fulfilling Johnson's vision anyway. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Ascension")
September[]
- Daisy has left S.H.I.E.L.D. and began operating as a vigilante, know as "Quake" by the press. Coulson no longer S.H.I.E.L.D.'s director and Mack almost track her down as she arranges the relocation of Charles Hinton's wife Polly and daughter Robin, but she escapes after directing Polly to Cal's veterinary practice. In an end tag Radcliffe is revealed to have been working on a robotics project, the "Life Model Decoy", as part of which he uploads his artificial intelligence AIDA into the prototype android. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Ascension")
- Daisy Johnson, now the vigilante "Quake", is hunting gang members in Los Angeles when they are murdered by the fiery "Ghost Rider". Meanwhile, Agents Phil Coulson and Mack, who were forbidden from searching for Daisy by the new director of S.H.I.E.L.D, are tipped off to her location by Agent Melinda May. S.H.I.E.L.D. ally Holden Radcliffe shows his creation, the android AIDA, to Agent Leo Fitz, who agrees to help perfect her. He keeps this a secret from his girlfriend, Agent Jemma Simmons, who is in the paranoid Director's inner circle, and takes daily lie-detector tests. Simmons discovers that Coulson and Mack are investigating Daisy, and orders May to stop them. She arrives to find them surveilling potential targets of Quake, gang members who have obtained a new weapon, a mystical being, who turns the gang members berserk, and secretly infects May as well. Daisy tracks down the Ghost Rider, but he defeats her. She later sees his human form, Robbie Reyes, looking after his disabled brother, Gabe Reyes. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The Ghost")
- S.H.I.E.L.D. and Daisy independently investigate the figure, an apparent ghost of a woman named Lucy, both concluding that she originated from an abandoned facility. Daisy confronts Robbie again, and he once more overpowers her. Restraining her, Reyes searches her belongings for a reason to justify killing her, and discovers her research of the facility. He leaves and Daisy escapes her restraints. Meanwhile, Director Jeffrey Mace plans to officially announce S.H.I.E.L.D. as a legitimate organization again, the infected May grows increasingly paranoid, seeing all people as monsters, and eventually attacking other agents. Director Mace restrains May with his Inhuman strength, and promises Coulson to take care of her. Mack and Fitz arrive at the facility to find more ghosts, who attempt to blow it up with them inside. Robbie turn into Ghost Rider and intervenes, destroying one of the ghosts, and Daisy arrives to stop S.H.I.E.L.D. from taking him in. Rather than rejoin S.H.I.E.L.D., Daisy agrees to work with Robbie, who believes that the ghosts are tied to him. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Meet the New Boss")
October[]
- Inhuman S.H.I.E.L.D. asset Elena "Yo-Yo" Rodriguez is caught in a blackout in Miami. Robbie and Daisy are caught in another in Los Angeles. A group claiming to be the Inhuman resistance, fighting registration with the Sokovia Accords, take responsibility. Robbie explains that his uncle, Eli Morrow, use to work at Momentum Labs, and believes that atoning for Morrow's sins will pay his debt to the Devil, ridding himself of the Ghost Rider. At the Reyes' house, Gabe realizes that Daisy is Quake and asks her to leave Robbie alone. Radcliffe uses AIDA's power cell to help Simmons 'restart' May and cure her. Coulson, Mack, and Fitz save Rodriguez from a group of Watchdogs, and find the EMP that caused the blackout—it was set off by the Watchdogs, who have backing from someone with access to the government list of registered Inhumans, this is Senator Rota Nadeer, whose brother is encased in an Inhuman terrigen cocoon. Hoping to assuage public fears of the Inhumans, Director Mace announces the return of S.H.I.E.L.D. to the public. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Uprising")
- Daisy forces Simmons to help track the Watchdogs' actions. They discover that the group hacked an Inhuman's monitoring device, and race to save the next Inhuman on the list. Coulson visits Eli Morrow in prison, but gets no answers. Robbie arrives to talk to Morrow, and Mack recognizes him as the Ghost Rider. They capture Robbie, and earn his trust. AIDA supervises May's recovery, as a Turing test by Radcliffe. Daisy and Simmons find the Inhuman J.T. James and destroy his monitor. Robbie visits Eli while Coulson and Mack listening on, and learns that the Momentum explosion was caused by a group of scientists studying the Darkhold, a mysterious book. Only Lucy's husband Joseph, whom Morrow had put in a coma trying to stop the experiments, survived. James betrays Daisy he hates being an Inhuman, and gave the Watchdogs access to his monitor. Coulson, Mack, and Robbie save Johnson and Simmons, alerted by the monitor's destruction. They then get May to help find the Darkhold, and when Simmons sees AIDA she deduces her true nature. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Let Me Stand Next to Your Fire")
- After, Lucy wakes Joseph to find where he hid the Darkhold. Coulson arrives, and is able to learn of this before Joseph dies from her ghostly infection. Coulson decides to use Morrow against Lucy, but doesn't tell Director Mace. The latter, whose public approval was high after heroics during a bombing in Vienna, becomes more popular after he reveals his Inhuman status in a television debate with Nadeer. Mace exempts Simmons from any lie-detection tests after she threatens to reveal the truth about Vienna to keep AIDA secret. At the prison, Lucy infects the staff, who attack Coulson and May. Daisy saves them while Mack and Robbie break Morrow out. Robbie confronts the last member of the "Fifth Street Locos" gang who had paralyzed Gabe in a paid. Reyes loses control, and the Ghost Rider kills the prisoner. This allows Lucy to kidnap Morrow, whose help she needs in becoming human again and finishing their work. Mace secretly meets with Nadeer, who threatens to release footage of Ghost Rider killing the prisoner while working with S.H.I.E.L.D. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Lockup")
November[]
- Director Mace sends Simmons on a secret assignment, then takes a team to board the Zephyr to arrest Robbie and Daisy. The pair hides with a newly picked up Gabe, Robbie explaining that he had convinced Gabe to sneak out with him to race in Morrow's car, but they were attacked by the Fifth Street. Gabe was paralyzed and Robbie was killed before he promised an unknown voice that he would kill the people who murder innocent people in exchange for being revived, and came back to life as another Ghost Rider passed him that power. Director Mace finds the fugitives, but agrees to let Coulson use Robbie against Lucy after the Ghost Rider overpowers him in a fight. Fitz tracks Lucy to an abandoned Roxxon Corporation power plant, where Robbie kills Lucy after she reveals that Eli Morrow craves the Darkhold's power himself he had intentionally created the ghosts, and Joseph had ordered the hit on Morrow's car to try to stop him. Morrow activates an improved version of the Momentum machine and gains the power to create matter. Robbie, Fitz, and Coulson disappear from the facility. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The Good Samaritan")
- Coulson, Fitz, and Robbie are trapped between dimensions, and helplessly watch as Eli kills several agents and escapes. Fitz overhears Mace arguing with Nadeer; he needs Simmons to understand Morrow's technology, but she has been taken to Senator Nadeer's brother, who she helps escape from his terrigen cocoon. In Simmons'absence, Radcliffe studies the technology, and is presented with the Darkhold by May in her desperation to save Coulson. Radcliffe believes the book contains too much knowledge for a person to process, but AIDA is able to read it, revealing her android nature to Coulson and May. AIDA constructs a portal through which Coulson and Fitz return. During this time, the Ghost Rider spirit had left Robbie and possessed Mack to avoid the other dimension, where it had been before. Robbie confronts the spirit, promising to serve it even after they defeat Eli if it leaves Mack. It agrees, and Robbie returns with it through the portal. Secretly, AIDA begins experimenting with her new knowledge from the Darkhold, creating an artificial brain. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Deals With Our Devils")
December[]
- Coulson tells Director Mace that Aida is an android, and he agrees to use her to fight Eli Morrow. He also approves a strike team consisting of Yo-Yo, Robbie, and Daisy, as long as the latter two keep a low profile. The team attempts to enter an abandoned building that Morrow has barricaded himself in using his growing abilities, but at first only Robbie can make it through one of Morrow's traps. Seeing through a camera on Robbie, Fitz deduces that Morrow draws his power from the other dimension, and has created a demon core which could destroy half the city if activated. Aida creates a new dimensional portal beneath the demon core, through which the device and Morrow are dragged. Robbie also falls through the portal after using the Ghost Rider to hold Morrow in place. Daisy is seen by local media, and Mace publicly clears her name, reinstating her as an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. He then allows Radcliffe to continuing working on his Life Model Decoy (LMD) program given the success of Aida, though she has secretly replaced May with an android LMD. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The Laws of Inferno Dynamics")

- Fitz and Radcliffe are sent to clear Aida's memory of the Darkhold, but she reveals her new-found sentience and overpowers them. Taking control of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s systems, Aida finds the Darkhold after Coulson gives its location to the May LMD which doesn't know it isn't the real May. Fitz is able to take control of the systems before Aida escapes, and Mack "kills" her. Radcliffe later laments about this to a new model of Aida, as he had programmed the original's apparent sentience in an attempt to steal the Darkhold for himself. While elsewhere, Senator Nadeer orders a group of Watchdogs to kill a now recovered Vijay, but he convinces her to spare him as his long terrigenesis appears not to have affected him. Simmons, having identified Vijay from photographs, Director Mace and Daisy arrive, as Vijay discovers he now has super-reflexes. Ellen convinces him to leave with her, but then shoots him in the stomach. Ellen asks the Watchdogs for reinforcements from "The Superior" as Vijay's body is dropped into the ocean and enveloped by another terrigenesis cocoon.(Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Broken Promises")
- Director Mace holds a press conference for Daisy, celebrating her "undercover" actions, until a sniper attempts to assassinate Mace with Judas Bullets. Coulson and Mack escort Mace and PR agent Burrows who is often seen near Mace with a mysterious briefcase to a quinjet, but it explodes mid-flight. Burrows is flung from the plane with the briefcase, and the others crash land in a forest. There they find ex-Hydra agents, hired by the Watchdogs, who have recovered Burrows' body. In the ensuing fight, Mace tries to get a serum from the briefcase, but it is destroyed and he is injured. Mace explains that he is not an Inhuman, and was given his abilities by a super-serum from the government to create a trustworthy enhanced individual to lead S.H.I.E.L.D. After their rescue by Daisy and the LMD May, Coulson tells Mace to continue as "the Patriot", the face and political leader of S.H.I.E.L.D, while Coulson takes back command of operations.

Coulson and Yo-Yo infiltrate Nadeer's office to install surveillance devices, but are caught, giving Nadeer an excuse to start a full investigation of S.H.I.E.L.D. The May LMD realizes that she had subconsciously leaked the details of Coulson's plan and confronts Radcliffe, as Fitz discovers Radcliffe's treachery from the original Aida's programming. Radcliffe explains to the LMD May that her programming will not allow her to reveal her nature to anyone else, before S.H.I.E.L.D. arrives and arrests him. Fitz later confronts Radcliffe in his cell and deduces that he himself is an LMD, the real Radcliffe had sought protection from Nadeer after Aida's initial failure. Mack and Yo-Yo have grown close, and he tells her of his daughter Hope, from a past marriage, who died as an infant. Meanwhile, Radcliffe and Aida have May captive with them, her mind in a virtual reality simulation of Bahrain where she was able to save the Katya Belyakovs. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Wake Up")
- Agent Billy Koenig, who Coulson entrusted with the Darkhold, is abducted by the Watchdogs. Nadeer directs Radcliffe to the Superior, reclusive industrialist Anton Ivanov, and Radcliffe scans Koenig's brain to learn that the Darkhold was hidden in the Labyrinth, a S.H.I.E.L.D. facility known only to the Koenig family. Coulson secures the rest of the Koenig family, who take him, May LMD, and Daisy to get the book. The Radcliffe LMD reveals that Radcliffe knows Fitz's estranged father, and has created another LMD. Simmons remembers that Radcliffe scanned May's brain when they were curing her of ghost Lucy's influence, and warns Daisy of the May LMD in time to stop it from taking the Darkhold and shooting Coulson. The Watchdogs arrive with Billy, and Radcliffe steals the Darkhold in the ensuing fight. S.H.I.E.L.D. later destroys the remains of the first Aida and the Radcliffe LMD. Ivanov explains to Radcliffe that he plans to use the Darkhold to destroy both the Inhumans and the man who appears to be behind the recent alien crises Coulson. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Hot Potato Soup")
February[]
- Coulson and Mack locate Agnes Kitsworth, Radcliffe's former lover and partner. Radcliffe left Kitsworth after she was diagnosed with terminal cancer, and modeled Aida after her. Coulson convinces Kitsworth to meet with Radcliffe. In case Nadeer is an Inhuman like her brother, Ivanov sends Watchdog Tucker Shockley to expose her to terrigen provided by Radcliffe, but the substance transforms him instead. Shockley explodes, killing Nadeer, and then his molecules reassemble. Ivanov agrees to use Shockley's new ability against S.H.I.E.L.D. Radcliffe meets with Kitsworth and convinces her he can save her life if she escapes with him before S.H.I.E.L.D. captures them. Daisy confronts Shockley, and distracts him long enough for Fitz and Simmons to contain him in a specially made device. Ivanov uses this as a distraction to attack and kidnap Mace, who has learned that each time he uses his Patriot serum there is a chance that it will kill him. As Kitsworth dies of the cancer, Radcliffe places her consciousness in the virtual "Framework" with May. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "BOOM")
- Years ago, Coulson and May recovered an unknown object from a Russian outpost, besting an SVR team that included Anton Ivanov. Coulson and May developed feelings toward each other then. For the failure, the SVR agents other than Ivanov were tortured and killed. In the present, Ivanov leads S.H.I.E.L.D. on a treasure hunt around the world, including to that outpost, in their search for Mace, whom Ivanov continuously tortures. The team eventually finds Ivanov, and Daisy engages and overpowers him. Coulson and Mack save Mace, while Fitz and Simmons attempt to locate any sign of the Framework in hopes of finding May. Unsuccessful, the pair reunite with the others and they return to base. Aida, whom Radcliffe has left to carry out his plans while he spends time in the Framework, finds Ivanov. At base, Fitz and Simmons are alerted by their LMD security system, learning that Coulson, Mack, Mace, and Daisy were all replaced with LMDs by Aida while Fitz and Simmons were separated from the group. The Coulson LMD wakes the May LMD from storage. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The Man Behind the Shield")
- The new LMDs are aware of their nature, and plan to carry out Ivanov's goal of destroying all Inhumans. Simmons soon discovers that Coulson Mack, Mace, and later Fitz are the other new LMDs, and Jemma overpowers Fitz. Daisy also discovers the subterfuge, and plans with Simmons to escape the base and hack into the Framework remotely to find the others from the inside. Daisy overpowers the Mace LMD, Mack, and Coulson LMDs, while Simmons recruits other S.H.I.E.L.D. agents. They find the May LMD waiting for them at the base entrance, tasked with detonating a large explosive to prevent their escape. The May LMD instead lets them leave, and destroys the base with the LMDs inside. In the Framework, the agents find an altered reality, Johnson is in a relationship with the dead traitor Grant Ward. Simmons is dead, Fitz is rich, Coulson is an anti-Inhuman teacher. Mack's child is alive. and May works for HYDRA, who have replaced S.H.I.E.L.D. In the real world, Aida severs Ivanov's head from his crippled body and builds an android body for his mind to control. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Self Control")
April[]
- In the Framework, Daisy discovers that she and Ward are agents of Hydra, working under May and Fitz. The tragic event from May's past has no longer happened in the real world she killed a young Inhuman girl, but in the Framework she brought the girl back to America as a refugee, who then became a mass murderer and the catalyst for Hydra to take power. Simmons awakens in a mass grave of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, and eventually comes across Coulson who is teaching a Hydra-approved curriculum that warns against the dangers of Inhumans. Simmons is unable to convince Coulson that he is inside a virtual simulation, and he calls Hydra. Daisy races to find Simmons before the rest of Hydra, and is followed by Ward, who reveals himself to be a mole inside Hydra for the Resistance. Daisy and Simmons try to exit the Framework using a safeguard the latter created, but it has been blocked by Aida, who has entered the Framework as the Director of Hydra and Fitz's lover. Daisy then goes to Coulson, and he remembers her name. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "What If...")
- Hoping Radcliffe can help them escape, Daisy returns to Hydra and locates him, but May gives her a new mission on the orders of Fitz and Aida, the latter choosing to go by Ophelia, or Madame Hydra. Ward directs Coulson who can remember some things, thanks to previous tampering with his mind and Simmons to the Resistance, the remnants of S.H.I.E.L.D under the command of an Inhuman Mace. Ward, Simmons, and Coulson take a stolen Hydra quinjet to extract Radcliffe. May and Daisy arrest Mack, and May forces him to trick her into confessing her true allegiance. The others find Radcliffe living in seclusion with Agnes, and he explains that he and Agnes cannot leave the Framework due to their real bodies having died. Fitz and Madame Hydra arrive, and Radcliffe attempts to appeal to Fitz, though Fitz already knows of the "other world" and that Radcliffe had enslaved Aida there. He kills Agnes and takes Radcliffe hostage, torturing him and than Daisy. Regretting his actions, Mack joins the Resistance. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Identity and Change")
- Mace and Coulson infiltrate a Hydra "Enlightenment Camp" to free an undercover agent Antoine Triplett, a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent who died in the real world. They are tracked there by May, who uses a super serum to fight Mace. Through the vents in their holding cells, Daisy learns from Radcliffe of a backdoor he installed to escape the Framework that Aida is unable to disable. Coulson attempts to save one of his former students who he sees being held in the camp, and Mace follows him into a building to help. Hydra uses a missile to bring the building down, and May enters the rubble to ensure Mace is dead. She finds him stopping debris from crushing the student, with Coulson and Triplett helping other children escape the building. May is horrified to find children being victimized by Hydra. With the others to safety, Mace is crushed beneath the debris, and in the real world Aida finds his physical body has die. Turning on Hydra, May sneaks a Terrigen crystal to Daisy so she can gain her Inhuman abilities within the Framework. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "No Regrets")
- May and Daisy escape Hydra, with Daisy using her powers to break Ophelia's back. Ophelia insists that Fitz complete work on their secret Project: Looking Glass, after which her Framework body will no longer matter. May and Daisy join up with S.H.I.E.L.D., who are struggling to regroup after Mace's death. May provides them with body cam footage from the attack on the Enlightenment Center, which Coulson broadcasts to the world to counteract Hydra's propaganda. Meanwhile, Simmons and Triplett investigate a Russian oil platform which he believes is the location of Looking Glass from his time undercover. The platform is the Framework equivalent of Anton Ivanov's oil platform in the real world, from where Aida is running the Framework. The pair find the platform empty, and Simmons deduces that Looking Glass consists of a machine built on the real world platform, to be connected to a machine in the Framework using knowledge from the Darkhold, allowing Ophelia to go from the Framework to a true human body in the real world. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "All the Madame's Men")
May[]
- After Daisy and Simmons entered the Framework, their bodies were protected by Yo-Yo and the others agents aboard the S.H.I.E.L.D. aircraft Zephyr One. With their connection to the Framework draining the plane's power, Yo-Yo chose to shut off its cloaking ability, revealing their location to the Superior and his men. In the Framework, Simmons visits and accidentally kills Fitz's father Alistair, and Fitz begins hunting her with help from Radcliffe, Fitz offers to send Radcliffe through the machine, restoring his living body. Ophelia initiates her transference into her new body. Daisy takes the group to Radcliffe's exit point, where she, Coulson, and May cross back into the real world. Fitz arrives and confronts Simmons, but is overpowered by Radcliffe, who regrets all his actions since he first saw and wanted the Darkhold. Radcliffe sends Fitz through, followed by Simmons. Mack decides to stay, not wanting to live in a world without Hope. At the Superior's platform, the newly human Ophelia confronts Coulson, May, and Fitz, teleporting away with the latter. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Farewell, Cruel World!)
- The agents on Zephyr One fight off Ivanov's men and race to the platform to save Coulson and May from Ivanov's android bodies. Ivanov launches torpedoes at the platform that threaten Mack's body, but the latter is saved by Ophelia, convinced by Fitz to put to good use the Inhuman abilities his machine had given her new body. In isolation at S.H.I.E.L.D., Fitz and Ophelia discuss her newly discovered human emotions and the fact that he remembers all the terrible things he did inside the Framework. He admits that he ultimately still loves Simmons over her, outraging Ophelia. Talbot arrives at the ruined S.H.I.E.L.D. base, where Ophelia kills several of his soldiers and other S.H.I.E.L.D. agents. Coulson and the others flee in the Zephyr once more, while Ophelia returns to Ivanov, who plans to use knowledge from the Darkhold to apply the changed reality of the Framework to the real world. Meanwhile, Robbie Reyes returns through a portal from the other dimension and Yo-Yo enters the Framework herself to try convince Mack to leave. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. The Return)
- Anton Ivanov takes the Darkhold to an international meeting on S.H.I.E.L.D. and the recent events. He proposes to use the book against the Inhumans, which is timed with an attack on the group by an LMD of Daisy Johnson, who shoots Talbot in the head leaving him comatose. In the ensuing fight, S.H.I.E.L.D. is able to retrieve the Darkhold with Reyes' help. In the Framework, Yo-Yo is unable to convince Mack to leave, but he returns with her after Hope's code is deleted as a result of Ophelia shutting down the Framework. Radcliffe is also deleted, after accepting that immortality without Agnes Kitsworth would not have been worth it. Ophelia comes for the Darkhold, and Coulson surprises her by turning into the Spirit of Vengeance himself, having made a deal to become the Ghost Rider for a short time. He incinerates Ophelia. Reyes, now the Ghost Rider again, takes the Darkhold through a portal. The S.H.I.E.L.D. agents then wait to be arrested by the government, but are instead taken by a mysterious group. Sometime later, Coulson is working in space. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. World's End)
December[]
- With the exception of Fitz, Coulson, May, Daisy, Simmons, Mack, and Yo-Yo are taken by an unknown group and transported to a space station through a monolith. Upon arrival, the team quickly regroup and meet Deke, who reveals that the space station was built nearly ninety years prior. Hoping to send a message back to Earth, May and Simmons discover it is no longer inhabitable and appears to have been torn apart by a unknow cataclysmic event. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Orientation Part One")
- Mack and Yo-Yo are held captive by the Kree, who maintain control on the station by encouraging bloodshed among its inhabitants. Back in the station, the team attempt to blend in and meet Eve, who saves them during the Renewal. Meanwhile, Simmons is taken to meet Kasius, the leader of the space station, and is inducted as one of his servants. Later on, Daisy confronts Deke in his framework simulation, where he reveals she is the reason the Earth was torn apart. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Orientation Part Two")
- In preparation for Lady Basha's arrival, Simmons is given the task of helping an inhuman champion control her abilities for a special ceremony. Simmons is successful but becomes distraught when Kasius sells his champion to Lady Basha. While the team adapt to their new jobs, Grill becomes suspicious of the new arrivals and sends one of his men to spy on them. During a space expedition, Coulson, May, Mack, and Tess struggle to make sense of Virgil's notebook and discover a radio transmission supposedly originating from the Earth's surface. Grill’s spy reports back, only to be framed as a traitor and exiled to die on Earth. Meanwhile, Yo-Yo helps Daisy get ahold of a Kree tablet to try and save Simmons. However, her mission is thwarted by Deke, who reports her to Kasius. Daisy is captured and taken to become his new champion. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "A Life Spent")
- Daisy meets Ben, one of Kasius' other champions, capable of telepathy. Using Ben to corroborate their story, Kasius interrogates Daisy and Simmons about the others. They are able to convince Kasius they came alone, though he remains suspicious. During the interrogation, Ben learns that Kasius intends to destroy the station and everyone on it once he acquires enough profits to leave. Deke returns to the others to gather new information as they learn about the mysterious Level 35. Recognizing his father's voice on the radio transmission, Deke agrees to help them gain access to the restricted floor. There, they discover that Kasius is attempting to breed Inhumans. May also discovers Deke lied about Daisy's whereabouts, but get interrupted by Sinara's arrival. Coulson leaves with Deke, while May fights her alone. Meanwhile, Grill sends Mack to confront someone who owes him payment. Later, Fitz is revealed to be one of the bidders who've arrived for Daisy's exhibition. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "A Life Earned")
- Shortly after the others are taken from the diner, Fitz is taken into military custody and interrogated about their whereabouts, including the assassination attempt on General Talbot, and deaths of Jeffrey Mace and Holden Radcliffe. For the next six months, Fitz is given special privileges that would hopefully allow him to locate the team but fails. With help from Lance Hunter, Fitz escapes the military facility and tracks down Enoch, the man who took the others. Enoch explains that a prophecy foretold these events and takes them to meet Robin, the daughter of Charles from Spacetime, who can also tell the future but through drawings. Tracked by the military, Enoch helps them escape to a secret bunker, where Fitz learns that he was left behind so he could save the team. Determined to help them, Fitz and Hunter break back into the same military facility to obtain a cryogenic pod. In the warehouse, they find all their old S.H.I.E.L.D. tech, including Zephyr One, which they use to escape. Back in the secret bunker, Fitz is put to sleep for the next 74 years and is awoken by Enoch, who prepares him for their arrival at the Lighthouse. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Rewind")
2018[]
January[]
- Down in the station, the Kree have harvested some of the youth for an annual Terrigenesis ceremony. Flint, a friend of Tess, experiences a successful Terrigenesis and is taken into hiding with the team by Yo-Yo. Tess is killed and hanged for Flint's disappearance. During a dinner with the other bidders, Fitz quickly proves himself as a formidable character, earning Kasius' respect. The first exhibition is then held between Ben and May, resulting in May being sent to the surface, while Ben is killed for lying during Daisy's interrogation. Meanwhile, Grill finds the team and holds them captive, until Flint saves them using geokinesis against Grill, killing him. The unexpected arrival of Kasius' brother prompts Sinara to battle Daisy for her exhibition. During which, Fitz, Simmons, and Daisy are able to subdue the others and escape. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Fun & Games")
- Daisy, Fitz and Simmons are hunted throughout the station and discover the station is being sustained by gravitonium. Fitz gets shot during the chase. Deke finds them and takes them to the rest of the team. Reunited, the team plot their escape to the Earth’s surface by using a trawler and Deke’s antigravity device. After learning about Tess’ death, Flint decides to stay on the station to protect the remaining inhabitants. Mack and Yo-Yo agree to stay behind and help him. Coulson, Daisy, Fitz, Simmons, and Deke fly to the surface, but get caught in the gravity storm. Meanwhile, Kasius kills his brother and plots to regain his father’s acceptance by recapturing Daisy with help from Sinara. On the surface, Enoch finds May, but their meeting is cut short by the approaching storm. A mysterious figure takes them to safety, where they are greeted by an elderly Robin. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Together or Not at All")
- Coulson, Daisy, Fitz, Simmons, and Deke survive the crash and reunite with May in the Zephyr. Up on the Lighthouse, Kasius punishes the inhabitants by cutting off their resources. Flint, Mack, and Yo-Yo go to retrieve the weapons hidden by Fitz and discover Kasius has released the roaches onto the lower levels. They defeat the roaches and rescue the remaining inhabitants. On the surface, the team struggle to get answers from Robin and find a machine built into the Zephyr. While Fitz and Simmons attempt to remove Daisy’s inhibitor, May and Coulson find a shard of the time monolith in Voss’ locker. Deke questions Voss about the shard, which belonged to his parents, and gets knocked out. Voss then tries to kill Daisy and impales Robin to prevent her from giving the team answers. In the past, May is shown taking care of Robin and encouraging Fitz to build his machine so they can travel through time. Before dying, Robin is comforted by May as she reveals their history and finally tells May how to save the world, which requires Flint. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The Last Day")
- As the gravity storm worsens, the team attempt to relaunch the Zephyr. May reveals that using the shard, Flint can recreate the monolith allowing the team to travel back through time. Similar to the Lighthouse, Fitz and Simmons find gravitonium on the Zephyr and realize the designs were manufactured by Fitz himself. On the station, Flint, Mack, and Yo-Yo successfully gain control of the lower levels. Tess is resurrected by Kasius and sent to relay demands for him, who threatens to detonate explosives killing everyone if they weren't met. Mack and Yo-Yo retaliate by placing the explosives on Level 35, the medical floor, which would prevent Kasius from breeding more inhumans. During a standoff with Kasius, Flint evacuates the inhabitants to the upper levels and uses the remaining explosives to separate them from the lower levels, out of Kasius’ reach. Using the gravity storm to her advantage, May navigates the Zephyr into space as Daisy battles Sinara again, this time killing her. Daisy then contacts Mack while the team are heading for the Lighthouse. Kasius, however, knew this because of his seer. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Best Laid Plans")
- While Enoch stays on the Zephyr, the team focus on getting to Flint and rescuing the other inhumans from captivity. Distraught over Sinara’s death, Kasius infects Tye, the inhuman trainer, with odium, a substance that excites maniacal behavior and sends him after the team. During a fight with Tye, Coulson gets infected with the odium. Kasius' seer is revealed to be Yo-Yo from the future, one who has lived through the time loop and endured endless torture. She reveals that the team's ultimate return will bring the end of the world and that the only solution is to let Coulson succumb to his infection. As Flint recreates the monolith, Mack leaves to find Yo-Yo and witnesses her death by Kasius, who consumes the remaining odium and fights him. With help from Simmons, Mack kills Kasius and reunites with Yo-Yo, who is still alive in their timeline. Deke returns to the Zephyr in time to save Enoch and fix the machine, however at the cost of both of their lives as the team returns to the present. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Past Life")
April[]
- Back in their time, Coulson and the team meet Noah, Enoch’s successor, a Chronicom who has been monitoring the world from the Lighthouse in their absence. Fitting with Voss' description as the first signs of the end, Coulson, May, Fitz, Simmons, and Mack investigate a beacon originating from the Earth. Reluctant to join the team, Daisy stays behind and discovers that Deke survived the explosion. After being arrested, Daisy is forced to leave the bunker to save him and prevent him from exposing the team, who are now Most Wanted. Upon finding the beacon, Coulson and the team reunite with Agent Piper, who is later revealed to be working for General Hale. The team are then ambushed by a group of Hale's robotic soldiers, led by a mask assassin. During the fight, the assassin attempts to kill Mack with her chakram, but Yo-Yo blocks the attack and loses both her arms. Piper realigns with the team as they retreat to the Lighthouse with the beacon, which detonates as Noah sacrifices himself to save Simmons and Fitz. Later, General Hale criticizes the assassin, revealed to be her daughter, Ruby, for jeopardizing the operation. In Philadelphia, General Hale recruits Carl Creel to join her team, which he reluctantly agrees to. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "All the Comforts of Home")
- The destruction of the three Monoliths caused by the beacon's explosion creates a dimensional tear, manifesting the fears of Coulson's team into reality. Fitz creates a device capable of sealing the tear using Gravitonium, but while attempting to argue with the team over his decision to volunteer for the task, Coulson collapses momentarily. The team finds out about his infection, which is a result of the Ghost Rider burning off the Kree blood within him, causing him to slowly die. The team is forced to accelerate their plan when Yo-Yo is attacked in bed by a Simmons LMD. Deke is sent to the surface to call for backup, while Coulson goes in alone to seal the tear. He encounters a manifestation of Mike Peterson, who claims that everything that Coulson has experienced thus far is a dream, and he's dying on an operating table. Coulson manages to overcome his fear, and is saved by the real Peterson, who arrives with several other S.H.I.E.L.D. agents after responding to Deke's call. Coulson and Peterson fight off more manifestations, including Lash and Hive, before managing to close the tear for good. Later, the team organize a wedding ceremony for Fitz and Simmons. General Hale, who came to River's End after learning of Daisy's sighting, investigates the holding cell where Deke was kept it is revealed through her finding, and through Deke's conversation with Peterson, that he is the grandson of Fitz and Simmons. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The Real Deal")
- While the rift is contained, Fitz sends the team to search for more Gravitonium, which went missing with the Principia, a Cybertek ship. The team hunt down a lead in New Orleans, reuniting Mack with his old school mate, Tony Caine, who has been helping redeem scientists coerced into working for HYDRA. The team ask Caine about the Deathlok Program, hoping to find a way to save Coulson and give Yo-Yo cybernetic arms, but he states the program failed. Meanwhile, General Hale continues to form her team by transferring Werner Von Strucker to Blue Raven Ridge. Since being zapped, Strucker’s cognitive abilities have intensified, allowing him to remember everything. Strucker denies Hale’s offer, leading her to ask Ruby to change his mind. After experiencing a manifestation of his mother, Deke realizes the Gravitonium may have been activated by the lightning storm, sending the Principia into the sky. Sure enough, the team find the Principia suspended in the atmosphere and discover most of the Gravitonium is gone, leaving only a small portion to sustain the ship. As Mack collects the remaining Gravitonium, a group of Hale’s robotic soldiers ambush them. Coulson, Daisy, and Mack fend off the robots and successfully get off the ship before it plummets back to Earth. Upon hearing his mother’s saying in an exchange between Simmons and Yo-Yo, Deke realizes Fitz and Simmons are his grandparents. Elsewhere, Ruby convinces Strucker to stay and introduces him to Creel. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Principia")
- As Fitz struggles to figure out a solution to compressing the Gravitonium, he encounters his Framework self, The Doctor, who claims to finish what he had started before. He reprograms the robotic soldiers the team recovered from the Principia to keep Mack, Simmons and Yo-Yo at bay while he incapacitates Daisy and restrains her in order to operate on her and remove her power inhibitor, as he believes it to be the solution to the Gravitonium problem. Simmons, upon finding Fitz and Daisy, realizes that The Doctor was not a manifestation from the fear dimension, and that Fitz had hallucinated his other self while committing the aforementioned deeds. Fitz successfully removes the inhibitor and restores Daisy's power, and was able to compress the Gravitonium. However, he cannot bring himself to face the others due to his actions. Deke attempts to comfort Simmons, while also revealing to her that he is her grandson. Meanwhile, Coulson and the others manage to lure Hale into a trap and capture her for interrogation, but she demands Coulson to accompany her back, along with Creel and Anton Ivanov who threaten to detonate explosives on the Zephyr. Coulson reluctantly agrees to go with them, in hope of learning what Hale knows about the imminent threat. Later, Hale speaks to her mysterious superior, who hands her a vial of odium and remind her of her HYDRA allegiance. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The Devil Complex")
- In the past, a young Hale is assigned by Daniel Whitehall to infiltrate the U.S. Air Force, as well as being impregnated with Ruby via in vitro fertilization as HYDRA's next leader. In the present, Hale attempts to convince a recently awakened Talbot to hand over confiscated HYDRA contraband and has Ruby interrogate him when he refused to cooperate. She also reveals to Coulson that HYDRA had made contact with an alien alliance called the Confederacy, warning of an impending invasion, but Coulson fears Earth becoming enslaved as the price of their help. When Hale reveals her plans to use an old machine of Whitehall's combined with gravitonium and Daisy's powers to create a Destroyer of Worlds, Coulson reveals his trip to the future, but she doesn't believe him. Meanwhile, Daisy has been left as de facto head of S.H.I.E.L.D. but refuses to trust Fitz to help and instead goes to find Robin for help in finding Coulson. Simmons later visits Fitz and reveals that Deke is their grandson. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Rise and Shine")
- Hale attempts to use Creel as a test subject for the particle-infusion chamber, infuriating Ruby who continues to conspire with Strucker in hope of earning her place as the Destroyer of Worlds. Creel's temporary exposure to the Gravitonium causes him to see memories of Franklin Hall. He determines to get answers from Coulson, who then leads him to Talbot's cell. Hale sends Ruby to capture Creel and eliminate the other two, but they use the Confederacy's teleportation device to escape to a snowy mountain area, while Creel remains behind to fight Ruby. Daisy and May locate Robin, who has stopped drawing her visions for some times after seeing her own death in the future. Upon seeing May, Robin begins to draw again, this time showing Coulson and Talbot's location. Back at the Lighthouse, Simmons convinces Yo-Yo to help her free Fitz in order to pursue possible leads on HYDRA's Gravitonium-powered weapon. Together, they trick Mack into releasing Fitz then lock him up. A flashback to four years ago reveals that Ian Quinn was tricked by Raina into being absorbed by the Gravitonium. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Inside Voices")
- Ruby pursues Coulson and Talbot at the mountains, but Daisy arrives in time to save them. Deke, in an attempt to cover for Daisy, is shot by Hale and her men, forcing S.H.I.E.L.D. to retreat. Deke is taken back to the Lighthouse, where Mack and Piper operate on him and successfully save him. Ruby, furious about her mother's attitude, decides to rebel and lock Hale in her cell, while she takes over and works with Strucker. FitzSimmons and Yo-Yo travel to a HYDRA facility in England, where they find the particle infusion chamber. Fitz damages one of the components to render it useless, but they are then surrounded by the robot soldiers. Yo-Yo attempts to escape and call for backup, but is forced to fight Ivanov. As she emerges victorious, she learns that Ivanov's body is linked to all the robots, thus is able to disable them altogether. However, Ruby and Strucker arrive and decide to capture FitzSimmons in order to have them repair the infusion chamber. Daisy later attempts to help Talbot contact his family, but in the middle of his phone call with his wife, Hale's subordinate has her reading a script, activating Talbot's brainwashing. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The Honeymoon")
- S.H.I.E.L.D. locates Hale's secret base and sends Daisy and May in to apprehend Hale. Hale, who has just learned from Creel about Quinn and Hall's consciousnesses living inside the Gravitonium, willingly surrenders to them, and reveals Ruby's location to them and her plan to infuse with the Gravitonium. They arrive at the site just as the particle infusion chamber is fixed. Ruby begins the infusion process, but is unable to withstand it, forcing Strucker to stop the process at 8%. Unable to control the element, Ruby inadvertently crushes Strucker's skull, killing him. Daisy and Hale remain stationed to attempt to calm Ruby down, while May extracts Fitz and Simmons. Yo-Yo arrives, and upon realizing Ruby is the Destroyer and the one who cut her arms off, she slices Ruby's neck with her own chakram and kills her. Ruby's body begins to float and releases a blast of energy. In the aftermath, Hale mysteriously disappears. Meanwhile at the Lighthouse, Talbot attempts to carry out his programming and kidnap Robin, but Coulson and Mack manage to talk him down before subduing him, preventing him from killing himself. Later, Hale is seen in the Confederacy ship, where she reveals to Qovas of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s possession of the Gravitonium. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "All Roads Lead...")
- Coulson puts the base on lockdown as Qovas and his Confederacy ship appear above River’s End. Despite this, Qovas' troops, the Remorath scavengers, are able to teleport inside in pursuit of the gravitonium. While Coulson, May, Mack, Fitz, and Deke defend the control room, Yo-Yo retrieves Talbot and proceeds to the lab where Simmons, Piper, and Davis are guarding the gravitonium. Yo-Yo, Piper, and Davis attempt to clear the halls when Talbot ices Simmons and places himself in the particle infusion chamber, absorbing the remaining gravitonium. With his new powers, he is able to rescue the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, before taking off with Coulson to the Confederacy ship. Meanwhile, Daisy relocates Robin and Polly with the help of Tony Caine, who also gives her the Centipede Serum, which was once used to keep John Garrett alive. However, Caine fails to retrieve a special ingredient, prompting Daisy to dig up her mother’s grave. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Option Two")
- Coulson and Talbot enter the Confederacy ship, and the latter takes over and demands an audience with the Confederacy leadership. After killing one of the leaders and taking his seat, Talbot is convinced by Kasius' father, Taryan to dig up the Earth and find an untapped resource of gravitonium to power him up, in order to save the world from Thanos' imminent invasion. Coulson and Hale fail to convince Talbot of Taryan's true plan, and are forced to comply. Back at the Lighthouse, Mack has a brief encounter with an odium-powered Remorath warrior, who later succumbs to the substance and dies during interrogation. Simmons proceeds to dissect the Remorath and study the odium, but Daisy returns to the Lighthouse with Jiaying's corpse and the Centipede serum, and tasks the former with working on a cure for Coulson instead. Later, the team manages to modify the Zephyr to be capable of space travel, and heads for the Confederacy ship. Daisy and May infiltrate the ship, but Talbot neutralizes Daisy and forces May to surrender for Coulson's survival, while Hale is killed after attempting to trigger Talbot's brainwashing. Later, Daisy is delivered to Taryan, who plans to take her back to his homeworld. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The One Who Will Save Us All")
- Taryan expresses his desire for Inhumans as Daisy attempts to use her powers against him, though is prevented from doing so as only her consciousness is projected to Taryan's location via a device, while her body remains on the ship. After Talbot leaves on the Quinjet for Earth, Deke rescues Coulson and May, then reunites with Daisy, who escaped imprisonment by cracking the device. At the hospital, Talbot approaches Creel and offers him peace by absorbing him. Mack and Yo-Yo attempt to track his movements and deduce that he would visit his family next. Though Talbot confronts the two, his son, George, is able to connect with him and prevent him from causing further destruction, prompting him to leave to prove his heroism. After Coulson gave in for his feelings for May by finally kissing her, Coulson than leaves with Daisy on the Zephyr, while May duels with Qovas as Deke redirects the missiles to target the ship itself. May and Deke successfully teleport back to Earth as Qovas perishes with the ship. On the Zephyr, Coulson begins to bleed out as his condition worsens. Reunited at the Lighthouse, the team is faced with a difficult decision as Simmons' cure, created from the last remaining Centipede Serum combined with either odium or Jiaying’s DNA, could be used to save the world or Coulson. Elsewhere, Talbot has retrieved Polly and Robin, asking the latter for the gravitonium's location. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The Force of Gravity")
- After debating on what to do, May destroys the odium vial and Daisy decides that they would save Coulson. Deke advises Daisy to help unite the team and settle their differences. After forcing Robin to tell him where more gravitonium can be found, Talbot travels to Chicago and finds an underground deposit to absorb more gravitonium. Mack is chosen as the leader of S.H.I.E.L.D., and he orders the group evacuate and rescue as many civilians as possible. May rescues Robin as Coulson and Daisy approach Talbot. Having been given the decision on what to do with the Centipede serum, Coulson decides not to take it and assures Daisy that she can face Talbot alone. Daisy attempts to talk some sense into Talbot, but he refuses to listen and they fight around Chicago. May, Fitz and Mack rescue Polly, but Talbot's actions causes Fitz to be trapped under rubble. With Coulson secretly placing the Centipede serum in Daisy's gloves, Daisy takes the serum and uses her enhanced abilities to blast Talbot into space, where he freezes May and Mack realize that Fitz has been mortally wounded by the debris, and they stay by his side as he dies. Coulson decides to retire from S.H.I.E.L.D. and Simmons decides to find present-day Fitz, who is still suspended in space. May accompanies Coulson as he decides to spend his last days in Tahiti, and the remaining agents leave for their next mission. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The End")
2019[]
- Following the death of director Phil Coulson, S.H.I.E.L.D. is rebuilding under the leadership of Mack. They investigate a series of energy anomalies formed by hostile strangers emerging from portals, one of whom gets trapped inside a wall and partially turns to concrete. In deep space, Agents Daisy Johnson, Jemma Simmons, Piper, and Davis search for Leo Fitz, who was last seen in a cryofreeze chamber on a spaceship with the Chronicom Enoch; they find the spaceship abandoned and the chamber empty. Simmons learns that the chamber was created on Naro-Atzia, but the others decide to return to Earth. They are attacked by a Confederacy cruiser and, in the rush to escape, Simmons plots a course to Naro-Atzia. Mack and Melinda May recruit Dr. Marcus Benson to help found a S.H.I.E.L.D. academy and provide science support. They find coordinates on the man in concrete, Tinker, which lead them to a museum. The surviving hostiles are there and destroy the building to make way for their leader, Sarge, who looks just like Coulson. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Missing Pieces")
- Sarge and his crew begin to gather supplies for their mission, hiding their truck using cloaking technology. They rob a jewelry store to gather piezoelectric gems, attracting the attention of S.H.I.E.L.D. May and Yo-Yo lead a team to capture Sarge and his crew, but are locked out of the vault. On a hunch, May finds the hidden truck where Sarge's crew is using a portal to move the gems out of the vault. May overpowers Jaco, Snowflake, and Pax, but hesitates when she sees Sarge. Sarge's team pushes May through the portal before closing it. Investigating Tinker, Benson decrypts a memory chip on him and finds footage of Sarge and his crew witnessing the destruction of a planet. In space, Fitz is out of cryo and hiding on a cargo ship with Enoch. They are discovered by the ship's controller, Viro, who threatens to kill them unless they work as slaves. Fitz tricks Viro into being sucked out of an airlock and changes course to Kitson, where the ship's crew can find new work. They had been nearing Naro-Atzia, Daisy's group's destination after their Confederacy run-in. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Window of Opportunity")
- Fitz and Enoch arrive on Kitson, but their ship gets stolen at gunpoint, so they decide to head to the local casino to win enough money for a new ship in spite of their strict rule against "robots." Meanwhile, Daisy's group arrives on Naro-Atzia, where they are boarded by a bounty hunter looking for Fitz. They manage to tie him up and find out that Fitz headed to Kitson, where they arrive later. Meanwhile, Enoch wins multiple consecutive games, but gets played and loses all their winnings. Needing to win a large sum and lacking money to bet, Fitz enters a game where he is himself the collateral: losers are sold into slavery. Daisy, Simmons, and Davis eat some alien "puffs," only to learn the hard way that they are hallucinogenic. The bounty hunter, revealed to be another Chronicom, knocks out Davis and overrides Enoch's systems remotely, revealing Enoch as a "robot" to the casino runners. Despite being high, Daisy is able to defeat the Chronicom hunter's gang. Simmons momentarily reunites with Fitz before the bounty hunter himself teleports away with him, leaving her and Enoch baffled. Meanwhile, back on Earth, Sarge shoots statically-charged particles into the atmosphere, covering the entire planet. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Fear and Loathing on the Planet of Kitson")
- Deke Shaw running a company using S.H.I.E.L.D.'s tech. Sarge and his team track down a seemingly normal man and kill him with a strange knife. The body is brought to Benson, who discovers a bat-like alien parasite that revives and flies into the vent system after the knife is removed. Sarge's team goes after Shaw as their next target, with Sarge himself pretending to be Coulson to get close to Shaw. Eventually, he realizes it's not Coulson and attempts to escape, aided by an undercover S.H.I.E.L.D. agent assigned to keep an eye on him. Mack, May, and a strike team enter the building and attempt to apprehend Sarge and his team alive. Though Mack is able to capture Pax and Jaco while May defeats Snowflake, Sarge gets the upper hand and kidnaps May. While tracking the parasite, it flies into Agent Keller's mouth and starts fusing with his vascular system. Benson and Yo-Yo attempt to get him to a containment room, but he explodes in a mass of crystalline structures. Yo-Yo retrieves the knife and stops the parasite from destroying the base, but is left devastated by her failure to save Keller (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Code Yellow")
- While in Sarge's custody, May is forced to kill a parasite-infected man. Afterwards, he reveals that it was part of the "Shrike", parasites that infect worlds and destroy them on behalf of their creator, and that he intends to stop them once and for all. May's eventually able to turn the tables on Sarge and brings him back to base, all while experiencing memories of Coulson. Daisy's team is captured by Chronicoms lead by Atarah, Enoch's former superior. After their homeworld was destroyed by a mysterious plague, they took the Confederacy's ships to defend themselves and kidnapped Fitz to unlock the secret to time travel. With Enoch betraying them and no other choice left, Simmons surrenders to the Chronicoms in order to reunite with Fitz so Daisy and her team can live and return to Earth. Mack and Benson comfort Yo-Yo, who's still affected by Keller's death. While performing the autopsy, Benson learns that the parasite and the knife used to kill it were composed of crystals similar to the Monoliths the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents have encountered in the past. Enoch reunites with Fitz and gets him up to speed on what's happened before gassing him, betraying him as well. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The Other Thing")
- Atarah uses a special device to trap Fitz and and Simmons inside their own minds, forcing them to work together to figure out time travel logic. While imprisoned, Fitz learns from a reluctant Simmons of her time-traveling adventures, including the deaths of his alternate future self and Coulson. The two of them are then pursued by Fitz's Framework persona as well as an undead Simmons, formed from her suppressed pain and bad memories from throughout her life. After a brief argument, Fitz and Simmons reconcile and overcome their fears. They are then freed by Enoch, who has had second thoughts about his allegiances and manages to overpower Atarah and the other Chronicoms. The three of them then teleport away to an unknown destination. Back on Earth, Daisy briefs Mack on Fitz and Simmons' situation and learns that Earth is being invaded by the same creatures that are responsible for the Chronicom homeworld's destruction. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D."Inescapable")
- Fitz, Simmons, and Enoch end up teleporting back to Kitson, where they are captured by the planet's owner and forced to gamble for their lives. However, a mysterious mercenary named Izel intervenes and buys their freedom in exchange for their help in finding an artifact on Earth. As they prepare a ship for departure, Enoch parts way with them, as he has now completed his initial mission, and sets out to help his people once more. Back on Earth, S.H.I.E.L.D. attempts to interrogate Sarge and his crew, but to no avail. Using one of his tracker devices, the team locates two Shrike hosts and captures them. However, both hosts cause a violent interaction when in close proximity, creating another crystallized explosion. Sarge reveals their weakness against cold exposure, which helps save May and Yo-Yo in time, in exchange for his and his crew's freedom. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Toldja")
- Sarge reveals that a large number of Shrike hosts will converge at a specific site to create a crystallized tower in preparation for the arrival of "the Beast". Mack assigns Daisy, May, and Deke to accompany Sarge and Snowflake to the site while he secretly follows them on the Zephyr. While being imprisoned onboard, Pax reveals to Yo-Yo that Sarge's plan is to use a bomb to detonate the tower and take out the Beast, who Sarge reveals to be Izel. As they head back toward Earth, Fitz and Simmons learn from Izel that she is looking for the monoliths, known as the Di'Allas. Izel secretly begins using Shrike to infect the ship's crew one by one until only Fitz and Simmons are left. As Daisy, May, and Deke find the bomb, Sarge teleports back to the Zephyr after setting the truck to collide with the tower. Back on Kitson, Enoch establishes contact with one of his associates and proposes an alliance. Meanwhile, the Chronicom hunters attempt to take down Enoch by using their memory machine to learn from Fitz and Simmons' memories. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Collision Course Part One")
- Sarge takes over the Zephyr and commands Mack to pursue Izel's ship. Deke fails to disarm the bomb, but as the truck collides with the tower, Daisy uses her powers to contain it, preventing it from exploding. The collision releases a swarm of Shrike that surround the truck, but Daisy is able to quake them apart. Izel commands the spaceship to retreat. Sarge kills Pax in anger after learning the bomb plot failed. When Fitz and Simmons successfully make contact with S.H.I.E.L.D., Sarge threatens Izel. Believing Fitz and Simmons to be conspiring against her, she commands the ship's crew to eliminate them. Yo-Yo convinces Jaco to remember his purpose for fighting, leading him to help them. Mack frees himself with Yo-Yo's help and overpowers Sarge. Mack, Yo-Yo, Davis, and Jaco then infiltrate Izel's ship and rescue Fitz and Simmons, but Izel disappears. The group escapes the ship through the portal into the truck, reuniting with Daisy and the others. Jaco decides to go back and detonate the bomb, sacrificing himself in the process. Later, S.H.I.E.L.D. celebrates their victory while Sarge is imprisoned. Mack states to Quake, “Where you’ve been the last 5 years, I’m looking forward to that debrief,” indicating she and Simmons had been in space searching for Fitz that long. Mack and Yo-Yo reconcile and rekindle their relationship. Later, May enters Sarge's cell and seemingly kills him. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Collision Course Part Two")
- Sarge's body is taken to the lab, where Fitz and Simmons learn that he is still alive and that his wounds are healing fast. May submits to capture and confesses. However, she later claims that she doesn't remember. Eventually, the team deduces that Izel has the power to possess people and that she infiltrated the Lighthouse through Davis. Mack puts the base on lockdown and gathers everyone at the command center for questioning. After Mack locks up Daisy and Yo-Yo to prevent them from being controlled, Izel appears and demands the Monoliths. The agents attempt to stop her, but Izel keeps hopping through them until she drops Davis from a ledge, killing him before taking Mack. Fitz deduces that the Monoliths represented space, time, and creation. When they exploded, their combined energy created a new Coulson and sent him to another planet in the past. Sarge escapes and confronts Izel, who's found the device containing the Monoliths' energy. She reveals that his real name is Pachakutiq, they're both from a planet of non-corporeal beings, and he had gotten his memories confused with Coulson's when he took the Coulson body. Despite this, Sarge refuses to join Izel. When Yo-Yo and Daisy confront her, the former allows herself to be possessed and demands Mack fly her somewhere else. Shaken, Sarge refuses to believe Izel, even as his powers start to manifest. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Leap")
- Izel plans to take the Monolith energy to a specific temple, so she possesses Mack and summons Benson. Though Yo-Yo successfully warns him before he reveals the information, Izel torments Benson with a manifestation of his deceased husband, Thomas, until he gives up the location. Yo-Yo and Mack trick Izel into releasing Benson so he can let S.H.I.E.L.D. know where she is headed. Daisy and May argue over whether any trace of Coulson lies inside Sarge and if they should further antagonize him to unleash his power against Izel. Deke realizes Izel's ability is based on vibrations, so he, Fitz, and Simmons begin working on a device to counter it. Daisy finally reads the letter Coulson left for her and snaps Sarge's neck. Sarge comes back stronger and begins destroying the Lighthouse, trying to escape. As Daisy prepares to kill him, he calls her "Skye." Daisy realizes Coulson really is in there, so she calms him down and sees him as an ally. Imprisoned in the temple, Izel demands Mack and Yo-Yo recreate the Monoliths' solid forms. They refuse, but are shocked when Flint suddenly appears. Meanwhile, the Chronicoms have learned new information. While Atarah still wishes to save Chronyca-2, Malachi wishes to establish a Chronyca-3, so he kills Atarah and sends other Chronicoms after two targets. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "From the Ashes")
- Izel possesses Flint to rebuild the Monoliths, creating a portal where her people await a sign to invade Earth before breaking Flint's leg and sending out a Shrike army for more hosts. Deke brings his tech company staff to the Lighthouse to mass-produce the devices needed to counter Izel and turn Sarge's daggers into Shrike-killing bullets. May, Sarge, Piper, and Daisy take a Quinjet to the temple. Daisy leads the Shrike-infected zombies away while May and Sarge go to confront Izel. Fed up that nobody respects him, Deke uses his stolen jump-drive to go to the temple himself and free Mack, Yo-Yo, and Flint. Despite not having enough power for a return trip, he manages to set up a camera to show Fitz and Simmons what Izel is doing and make it to the Quinjet on foot. Mack and Yo-Yo have Piper fly Flint to safety, but zombies trap them and Daisy in the Zephyr. Sarge and May face Izel, but Sarge cannot kill her. Confused about the pain he is in, May tells Sarge it's love for the team, but he stabs her and sends her through the portal as the sign, embracing Pachakutiq. Meanwhile, Enoch meets with his contact on Kitson, who tells him all the Chronicoms are now hunters and attacks him. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The Sign")
- Fitz and Simmons tell the field team what happened to May, but communications are shut off and the Lighthouse is put on lockdown. Malachi and the Chronicoms attack, using Fitz and Simmons' knowledge to anticipate their every move. Barricaded in a room with Framework tech, Fitz and Simmons prepare to sacrifice themselves to destroy it so the Chronicoms can't use it, but a disguised Enoch saves them and proposes a plan. With the Zephyr disabled, Mack has Deke fly the Quinjet to them, but Yo-Yo is infected by a Shrike. In between realms, where life and death don't matter, May destroys three hooded figures before they can let Izel's kind through. Izel herself appears and overpowers her to establish the connection. Daisy, Mack, and Yo-Yo battle Pachakutiq, but are no match for him. Izel reappears, but May stabs her from behind, killing her and freeing Yo-Yo. Mack kills Pachakutiq, closing the portal. As May slowly dies, Simmons appears with a team and an upgraded Zephyr, putting May in a stasis pod. Everyone evacuates before the Chronicoms destroy the temple and Monoliths. Fitz remotely sends them to safety with an upgraded jump-drive, landing them several decades in the past above Manhattan. Simmons explains that the Chronicoms know everything about S.H.I.E.L.D. and that they need an expert to help them fight back, revealing a Chronicom tech-enhanced Coulson LMD. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "New Life")
- Upon their return from the 1980s, Fitz, Simmons, Sousa, and Yo-Yo return to the Lighthouse and restore Simmons' memory while Coulson, May, Mack, and Daisy infiltrate the Chronicoms' ship to rescue Kora and confront Nathaniel. Coulson tricks Sibyl into sending her Chronicoms to the Lighthouse while May and Kora combine their abilities to give them empathy ending their assault. Daisy destroys the Chronicoms' ships, killing Nathaniel and Sybil. The agents rescue Daisy and Kora revives her. Fitz and Simmons return to the pod and their daughter, Alya. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "What We're Fighting For")
- The team gather to reminisce about their time together. Fitz and Simmons retire to raise Alya, May takes a teaching position at "Coulson Academy", Mack continues to lead S.H.I.E.L.D., with Yo-Yo as one of his top agents, Daisy explores the cosmos with Sousa and Kora, and Coulson travels the world. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "What We're Fighting For")
Altered 1931 Timeline[]
- In New York City, several Chronicoms steal the faces of three police officers and kill a contact from a local speakeasy. S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Jemma Simmons introduces Director Mack and agent Daisy Johnson to an LMD version of Phil Coulson, who struggles with his existence and the amount of information uploaded into him. Daisy and Deke Shaw investigate the faceless officers and are attacked by the Chronicoms; they overpower one and take him back to the Zephyr. Coulson and Mack investigate the speakeasy and meet its owner, Ernest Hazard Koenig, who reveals that the police officers are providing security for a function in honor of Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt. Simmons overloads the Chronicom's mind, forcing it to reveal their actual target; Koenig's employee Freddy, the father of future HYDRA leader Gideon Malick. The team rescues Freddy from the Chronicoms, realizing that they have to save HYDRA to ensure the future of S.H.I.E.L.D. On the Zephyr, the Chronicom Enoch, an ally of S.H.I.E.L.D., helps heal Agent Melinda May. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The New Deal ")
- Deke and Mack promise to keep Freddy safe, traveling with him by train to make a delivery. Meanwhile, the other agents regroup at Koenig's speakeasy and interrogate Freddy's contact, Viola. They learn that she is an agent of HYDRA and that Freddy is carrying what will become HYDRA's Super Soldier Serum. They return to the Zephyr, where Enoch attempts to prevent an erratic May from leaving after she woke up from her healing pod prematurely. Koenig helps direct the team to Freddy's delivery location, learning of S.H.I.E.L.D., Chronicoms, and time travel in the process. Daisy contacts Deke and tells him to kill Freddy to stop HYDRA's rise, but Mack prevents this. Koenig tries to stop Freddy from making the delivery, but Freddy shoots him and leaves with a Hydra agent, securing their future. The Zephyr unexpectedly time travels to follow the Chronicoms through the next time window, though Enoch is left behind. Despite this, he is hired by the recovering Koenig and informs him of his involvement in S.H.I.E.L.D.'s evolution. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Know Your Onions")
Altered 1955 Timeline[]
- The agents end up at Area 51, which is part of S.H.I.E.L.D. Furthermore, they discover that Project Helius is currently being worked on and that the Chronicoms plan to sacrifice one of their own in a bid to destroy the base. The agents kidnap high ranking agent Gerald Sharpe and have Coulson impersonate him while Simmons impersonates Peggy Carter. While the rest of the agents try to interrogate an unwilling Sharpe, Coulson and Simmons try to find the Chronicom infiltrator, but run into Carter's former partner Daniel Sousa who immediately outs them. Daisy arrives to save them just in time for the agents to catch on to how the Chronicoms plan to enact their plan. May and Yo-Yo chase down a Chronicom while Coulson battles another. Daisy and Simmons manage to improve a S.H.I.E.L.D. EMP device in time to disable Helius, the entire base, the Chronicoms, and Coulson. As Sousa collects Coulson, Mack and Deke return Sharpe to the desert where he becomes another lunatic raving about aliens. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Alien Commies from the Future!")
- Coulson, who begins to glitch as if everything is a noir, tells Sousa that he is his contact and that the he has come to help him in delivering a device to Howard Stark. He manages to contact Enoch to put him through to the Zephyr leading to a running gag where everyone calls him to speak to someone else. Yo-Yo and Deke find the device, but the latter is captured and taken to Freddy, who now leads HYDRA, but lets him go when he is reminded of his past. May's emotions become erratic and inconsistent and Simmons deduces that due to her time in the other realm, she is now empathic. Coulson realizes that Sousa is supposed to die while delivering the package to his contact and the team decide to save him. Sousa successfully delivers the package, but Coulson takes his place and is the one shot by the Hydra agent. Sousa is taken aboard the Zephyr and Coulson, with his glitch fixed, reveals that they travel to the future. Luke stays in 1955 and offers his aid to help Freddy take down S.H.I.E.L.D. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Out of the Past")
Altered 1970s Timeline[]
- The S.H.I.E.L.D. Team return to the speakeasy to discover that S.H.I.E.L.D. is preparing Project Insight, which should not be developed for several more decades, led by Wilfred Malick, who should have died in 1970. Wilfred and the Chronicoms attempt to capture the agents, but Daisy briefly takes his son Nathaniel (who also should be dead) hostage to allow their escape. Nathaniel sees Daisy use her powers. The agents reunite with Enoch and return to the Zephyr. Without warning, the Chronicoms jump forward to 1976 when Project Insight is set to launch, and the Zephyr follows. Coulson and May plant explosives in the Lighthouse where Insight is being launched while Deke and Yo-Yo confront Wilfred. The latter reveals that Mack's parents are hostages inside the Lighthouse, before being killed by Deke. Daisy and Sousa are captured by Nathaniel using a Chromnicom weapon. Mack aborts the detonation when he sees his parents, allowing Insight to launch. They use the Zephyr to destroy Insight, giving away their location.(Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "A Trout in the Milk")
- The Lighthouse automatically fires missiles at the Zephyr, damaging the time drive. While Deke, Simmons, and Enoch repair it, Deke discovers that Simmons has a memory implant that blocks her knowledge of Fitz's location while retaining information on time travel. Nathaniel experiments on Daisy and transfers her powers to himself, but he is overwhelemed by them as they break his bones and destroy the building he is in. Sousa is able to get Daisy back to the Zephyr. May identifies undercover Chronicoms by sensing that they have no emotions. She and Coulson rescue General Rick Stoner, and Coulson finds the Chronicoms' ship. He speaks with Sybil, their predictor, about the Chronicoms' plan. He then blows up the ship with himself in it. Mack and Yo-Yo discover that Mack's parents are already dead and are being impersonated by Chronicoms, forcing Mack to throw them from the Quinjet. The Zephyr time jumps, Mack steps out to mourn. Deke checks on him, but they are stranded when the Zephyr suddenly time jumps again. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Adapt or Die")
Altered 1980s Timeline[]
- Stuck in 1982, a despondent Mack spends the next year alone in grief. Deke checks in on Mack occasionally, and eventually convinces him to come see Deke's new band, The Deke Squad, which performs 80s' classics that have not been written yet. Deke reveals that he has secretly been training the members of the band to be S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, and that Coulson's consciousness has been saved on a hard drive. Meanwhile, Sybil's consciousness also survived, and she uses a lonely programmer to construct a crude body for herself. She then creates new "hunter" robots that kill the programmer before invading the Lighthouse in search of the time stream that Sybil uses to predict the future. Mack helps Deke and the new agents defeat the hunters, but a small robot escapes with the time stream. The Zephyr, re-appears long enough for May and Yo-Yo to reunite with Mack and Deke; the latter recounts the events of the past year to May. The small robot takes the time stream to Nathaniel Malick, who is working with the consciousness of Sybil. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The Totally Excellent Adventures of Mack and the D")
- After rescuing Mack and Deke, Simmons informs the team that the time drive keeps jumping them forward by less time until it will eventually collapse on them. Needing Yo-Yo's currently inactive powers to deactivate it, Daisy suggests stopping by Afterlife to get help from Jiaying. Yo-Yo and May arrive to discover that Jiaying is in the process of helping a despondent Inhuman named Kora who has explosive powers. After examining Yo-Yo, Jiaying comes to the conclusion that Yo-Yo's problems are mental rather physical and has May use her empath abilities on her. Yo-Yo reveals that she witnessed the death of her uncle and has blamed herself for it. Nathaniel arrives, with Daisy's powers, and recruits Kora in taking over Afterlife. Yo-Yo and May are forced to flee and upon arriving back at the Zephyr, Yo-Yo realizes that she has been holding herself back and successfully deactivates the time drive. As the crew settles in, the time drive suddenly starts up again. Enoch states that the plan did not work as the Zephyr unexpectedly jumps again. Meanwhile, Nathaniel and Kora capture the Inhumans at Afterlife. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "After, Before")
- The Zephyr gets trapped in a time vortex as Daisy wakes up from her cryo-chamber. After witnessing several events happen, time suddenly restarts and she realizes that she is trapped in a time loop with the Zephyr getting closer to the center of the vortex with every passing loop. She learns that Coulson is also aware and has been in the loop longer, though Daisy forgets everything when she dies. Daisy and Coulson learn about Simmons' memory implant, but when they try to remove it, a freak accident kills her. The deaths appear to be orchestrated and Coulson concludes that Enoch, who was programmed to protect Simmons' implant, has been unwillingly killing them. After several failed attempts, they manage to finally remove the implant and Simmons informs them that Enoch's power mechanism can fix the time drive, but at the cost of his life. In the final loop, Enoch willingly gives up his mechanism and dies, but not before revealing to Daisy that this will be their final mission as a team. Back at Afterlife, Nathaniel helps Kora control her powers. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "As I Have Always Been")
- Nathaniel recruits a young John Garrett and shows him his future while also perfecting a way to transfer Inhuman powers to his men. S.H.I.E.L.D. decides to have Jiaying stay at the Lighthouse with them for protection, against Daisy's wishes and is further perturbed to learn that Kora is her half sister. Coulson and Gordon teleport into Afterlife, but are captured with Gordon's powers getting drained and transferred to Garrett, killing Gordon in the process. Coulson is rescued alongside the rest of the captured Inhumans by Yo-Yo and Mack while Kora is knocked unconscious and taken by Coulson. Nathaniel and Garrett teleport to the Lighthouse with the latter facing off against May and the former confronting Daisy and Jiaying. He reveals Daisy's relation to Jiaying, learning that she will eventually betray her daughter. Nathaniel kills Jiaying, but flees when May arrives and shoots him in the shoulder. Garrett kidnaps Simmons as he and Nathaniel steal the Zephyr with Deke unknowingly still aboard it. Nathaniel explains his plan to have Simmons tell them where Fitz is. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Stolen")
- Kora claims that she wants to work with S.H.I.E.L.D., despite the agents deducing that she has ulterior motives. Knowing that Sibyl is aware of their every move, Daisy, Sousa and Mack decide to act against their judgement and take a quinjet into space to follow Nathaniel. Nathaniel attempts to glean information from Simmons by using Deke as leverage, but cannot find where Fitz is. His actions cause Simmons to forget Fitz completely. May interrogates Kora who angrily shuts down the power at the Lighthouse; allowing Sibyl to hack into the mainframe. Coulson realizes that he can read the code and tries to kick her out. Kora suggests using their knowledge to go after those who deserve to be killed such as Grant Ward. Coulson told her in a other world, Ward was good because a person was able to put him on a better path. May than shows her Jiaying's body and she angrily lashes out, only to be taken by Garrett back to the Zephyr. Daisy, Sousa and Mack discover that Nathaniel has contacted the rest of the Chronicoms and, using the information that Sibyl stole, fire down on all of the S.H.I.E.L.D. bases; destroying the entire organization. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Brand New Day")
- Upon landing on the Chronicom ship, Daisy searches for Deke and Simmons while Sousa and Mack fend off a group of Chronicom soldiers. Sibyl plans for Daisy to find Simmons to jog her memory, but an impatient Nathaniel has Kora confront them. Daisy manages to talk her down, forcing Nathaniel to knock Kora out and have her powers transferred to him. The agents return to the Zephyr and escape the ship. With the Lighthouse the only S.H.I.E.L.D. base still standing, Garrett plants bombs to destroy it, but Coulson, Yo-Yo, and May capture him and neutralize his powers. When they force Garrett to stop the explosion, Nathaniel leaves Garrett to die, but they all manage to survive. Garrett decides to join the agents and teleport them to the bar, only for him to be killed by other agents who arrived there to hide. Everyone regroups and, with Simmons' help, create a "key" that she was struggling to remember. The key opens a portal that brings Leo Fitz to them, but he is disappointed to learn Simmons does not remember him. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "The End is at Hand")
- Following Izel's defeat, Enoch took Fitz and Simmons away to help them build a time machine. Realizing they could, they also lived their lives together. Once they are ready, they return to Flint and Piper, and task them with guarding Fitz in a special container while Simmons leaves with the team. In the bar, the agents use the time drive to bring the Chronicoms to their timeline via the Quantum Realm. Deke volunteers to stay behind to help them becoming the new leader of S.H.I.E.L.D. in the new timeline. (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "What We're Fighting For")
