Episode 19:
Forest. Primitive running through. Throws a spear. Kills a boar. Something lands and he runs away. Kree.
Kree experimented on the native. Used their Kree blood on him. Then took the final step. Painful way to become Inhuman.
Hive tells the story to Daisy and Hydra. Time has come for your reward. We've been working hard to recreate the Kree experiment and you're next.
Lincoln pesters May about finding Daisy. He wants to help. May says we all care about Daisy. You really want to help? Stop trying.
Simmons says this is hopeless. Fitz says it's not ideal, but what other choice do we have. You didn't see Daisy. She says she was too busy seeing Grant Ward talk like my dead boyfriend. had to shoot him 3 times to get him to shut up. Lincoln volunteers to be the test Inhuman.
Coulson sits in his office waiting for Daisy to pop up somewhere. South Wyoming. Mack says it's an empty town. Hydra has it now. Coulson says it's a trap. Daisy wouldn't be caught unless she wanted to be. Mack thinks she wants to be rescued. A part of her is resisting Hive. Fitz says she wasn't a zombie. Coulson says we don't have time to debate, and can't be led by our emotions. We need to a team to go in and kill Hive.
Hive and Daisy. He thinks SHIELD only exists to fight wars. She says that's what the Kree did, too, isn't it? She asks him what got him kicked off Earth. He says fear and paranoia. Radcliff is ready to begin. Change their DNA and turn them Inhuman at the same time. Hive says people fear our power because not everyone has it. He wants a collectivist approach. Radcliff starts and the people are instantly in pain. One of them melts into liquid almost immediately.
May and Mack preparing their team. Taking the best weapons. Mack tells her this is on me. A good partner would've seen that she was turned. She says get your head on straight. This isn't about Daisy.
Lincoln tells Simmons she's overly cautious. She calls him a lovesick fool making a grand gesture. Fitz agrees with both of them. Coulson decides no. Tells FitzSimmons to look at other options.
Town. Inhumans enjoying a bar. James lived like a hermit. Daisy calls him a baby bird fixed up and ready to live in the world. He wants to dance with her. She tells him to cool it. She says SHIELD doesn't know any better. James says I can't see a way this doesn't end badly for them. Daisy wants to make them understand.
Radcliff says we were bound to run into complications. I need the right ingredients. DNA from a living Kree to complete the sequence. He wasn't sure before. But you're very frightening. Hive says I don't need you. I can take your mind, your memories. Radcliff insists he can make it work. I want it to work. Everything I've done leading up to this just pales. I promise, I'm your guy. Hive stops choking him. And uncovers the artifacts.
Coulson tells them to get Hive and get out. Do not engage the Inhumans. This is our only chance to catch Hive by surprise.
Fitz asks Jemma if we're good after our disagreement. She says of course. I would've stayed with Milton if I wanted someone that agreed with me. She wants to agree that they won't let work interfere with their relationship, though. Cute bickering. She spots Lincoln. He says I'm tired of arguing. Lincoln injects himself. Spews out lightning and falls.
He's seizing. Fitz rolls him over. Simmons wants to give him a counteragent. Lincoln pleads to be allowed to do this.
Mack and team arrive. See James. May enters the bar. Who the hell are you? He calls her gorgeous. She asks what he's doing here? You're not Hydra. This isn't a game. James heats up a pool ball and makes it blow up. He asks her to have a drink with him. He says Hive is experimenting on turning humans into Inhumans.
Coulson tells team to be alert.
Daisy comes to Hive. He wanted to see her. He's curious if she can defeat what made her. She says they're my friends. They'll understand if they can feel our connection. He says they may not be receptive to that idea. She says she has to try. He asks what if you fail? What then? She will rip their hearts out. He's relieved. Especially now our plans have changed.
Lincoln does not look well. Half the lab computers are fried. Blown servers. Lincoln says this will work. I can feel it. Simmons says I'll have to drill in your head. Tissue she needs is from his brain.
May and James. Charming him. She'd love to meet the boss. She knocks him out once they hear Hive is in the abandoned mine.
Coulson tells them safeties off.
Hive tells Daisy they're coming for us.
Mack finds the artifact activated. Coulson yells at them to get out now!
Hive says the ones who made me.
Mack's team is out. Mine building blows up. Kree land. Two soldiers.
Hive and Daisy in the church. Hive signaled Kree. They're Reapers. Hunters. They've been in stasis, orbiting the solar system. He thinks we'll defeat them with her help. He wants her to get the blood from a living Kree.
May joins Mack. Whose side are the Kree on?
Alicia attacks the Kree. Big Kree deals with her easily. Mack and May watch. Why would Hive summon them? Coulson, what are our orders? He says follow at a safe distance. Mack goes after Daisy.
Kree finds Radcliff. And daisy. She fights him. Radcliff says we're both going to die. She uses her power to break the Kree's bones, including his spine. Tells Radcliff to drain it.
Hive faces off with the other Kree. You're smaller than I remember.
May and team watch.
Hive says we don't have to fight. He's grateful for being made.
Radcliff and Daisy. He thinks we'll have all the blood we need in an hour. Mack enters. Daisy says I'd doing this to help you. It's the only way to save you. We're going to make you into an Inhuman.
Mack says this isn't you. She says no, it is. I'm not lost any more. SHIELD doesn't need to save me. He says you're sick. That parasite is messing with your head. She says SHIELD made us into what it needed. Coulson knew I was lost. He says we care about you. I care about you. Friends, partners. She says How'd that work for Bobbi and Hunter? You should leave here right now. Mack sets his gun down. Part of you wants to come back. That's how we found you. Security footage of you outside this garage. It wasn't an accident. She says I slipped up because I wasn't thinking like a spy anymore. You were almost like a big brother to me, but you struggle to be a real brother to the one you have. He says what you're feeling is not real. She says it is and the way the world is meant to be. He says not my world. She says I really wanted to save you, Mack. He destroys the Kree. She blasts him out onto the street.
Hive and Kree fighting.
Mack says he won't fight her. She beats on him.
Hive and Kree.
She keeps going. I wanted you to be part of this.
May thinks Hive is nursing a thousand year grudge. Kree calls Hive a failed experiment. Hive says the greatest miracles happen by accident. Coulson orders them to stake the shot. They fire at Hive. He's not hurt. May orders them to leave.
Daisy says we could've had a connection that was real. May shoots her to save Mack. they drag him into the emergency pod. Hive reaches Daisy. May looks on. Pod takes to the sky.
Home. Simmons patching up Mack. He tells Coulson you were right about her.
Lincoln up. Asks about Daisy. Simmons says the mission failed. Daisy is alive. They couldn't stop Hive. They returned an hour ago. Lincoln wants to be helping. She says your immune system is shut down, so until you recover, you're my prisoner. He apologizes. I don't know what to do. She says none of us do. The anti-toxin didn't work. Now get some rest.
Hive ripped out the Kree heart. Radcliff patches up Daisy. Hive says I put too much trust in you. Leaves me with questions. She says no, you were right to trust me. I'm finished with SHIELD. And I have answers. Kree blood is in my veins. Ward should remember. If you want this experiment to work, drain me.
Next ep - Hive will sacrifice anything in the name of annihilation. Who will die in 2 weeks?
