Episode 12:
Arcade. Koenigs making Star Wars quotes. Struggling with hover units. Russians coming for them. Sam and Billy defend themselves. But one of them is tased in the alley and kidnapped. Koenig tells Coulson that they have Agent Koenig.
Billy was abducted. Coulson gave him to the Darkhold. May's the only one that knew. so Radcliffe is the likely culprit. Davis says they picked up Sam. Fitz is working on Radcliffe.
The android Radcliffe. Where is he? Mack and Simmons join in. Bot doesn't know where Radcliffe is at this precise moment. He's not trying to be difficult. I'm the victim. Things are not as they seem.
Radcliffe held somewhere. Billy is brought to him. Billy says nothing will make him talk. Watchdog says the one that comes in this room next won't be me. The man will do things to you that I can't even watch. He will break you. Koenigs don't break! We're programmed to take pain! Bring it on! As soon as he's done, Billy says he can't take more and begs for death. radcliffe says I'm the reason you're here. I told them Coulson gave you the book. They double-crossed me.
Sam arrives.
Submarine. Radcliffe says my intent was purely scientific. The Darkhold drives you mad. Maybe you should let it drive them mad. Men come in. Leave stuff. Another door opens. The captain of this ship. Cooperate and you'll be treated by welcomed guests. If not, you'll be removed piece by piece. Radcliffe says that won't be necessary. Captain drinks something from a test tube. Vodka. The onion enhances the experience. Now they put vanilla in it. Old ways are better. Built to last, like this submarine. Man is the superior machine. And I am the superior man. He breaks the vial. I too love pain, and I want to make others feel it using the old ways. Radcliffe says enough, enough! Nadeer promised me he wouldn't be permanently damaged. He isn't going to talk. Let me get inside his head.
**Radcliffe is such a bastard.
Radcliffe bot is bring reprogrammed to spill the beans. Fitz says this is nothing like AIDA's code. Never seen anything like it. Bot says Latin. Fitz stops tampering. Fitz says who programmed you?! AIDA? Radcliffe bot whistles like a canary.
Sam and Daisy looking at the security footage.
Coulson doesn't know what Billy did with the book. May says we need to get it back and destroy it. Should've given it to me. Coulson says she'd be the one take now. And he can't lose her.
Billy says I won't talk. Radcliffe and AIDA will map his mind. Radcliffe says if you want to get rid of the Inhumans, the book will have the answer.
Sam keeps staring at Daisy. Quake. You're a superhero! That's so awesome. There's fanfiction about Quake. Some of it's a little on the steamy side. Not that I read it. They ship you with Black Widow. Heh. Daisy got facial rec. on the Russian goons. Nadeer, Watchdogs, and Russians united. Sam says that's why they want the Darkhold. May asks if he knows what Billy did with it? Sam says it's secure.
Fitz is still hurt about Radcliffe's betrayal. Mack says why not turn him off? Fitz says he has to be on to access the programming. Radcliffe says humans are programmed, too. Fitz can't do it. It's beyond me. Bot says that's your father talking. Isn't that what he used to say? Not smart enough? Fitz says why would you say that? Bot says because I knew him. Radcliffe knew Fitz's father!
Bot was afraid it would open old wounds. You're father and I were classmates. Fitz wonders how Radcliffe knows these things? Simmons tries to calm him. Bot says sometimes we sat together. He showed me a photo of his new son Leopold. I can prove it. Saw him a few months ago. He said I was to tell you-- Fitz pulls the power plug.
Radcliffe wonders why they dislike the Inhumans so much? Russian says they have great power but didn't earn it. We will destroy them then the thing that brought them upon us. AIDA says the brain is mapped. They take Billy to the brig. Radcliffe goes into Billy's brain. Sees him making a Darth Vader head.
Sam has the Darkhold.
Radcliffe says he doesn't have it. He gave it to a brother or.. a replica.
Sam doesn't have it. Gave it to LT. The first one. LT got us all into SHIELD. Coulson says no Koenig is safe right now.
Mack and Simmons discuss Fitz. She says Fitz's father was not a good man. He walked out on them when Fitz was 10. Fitz doesn't want to find him.
The Soul Patch club. Daisy looking for LT.
Coulson and May in the van with coffee. Coulson says we should be grateful. We're still standing. We should toast to that. May says we've been making a lot of toasts lately. Maybe we should try something else. Daisy calls them to get in here.
LT is doing slam poetry. You're being programmed. Russians show up. Or......nope. The bodyguard. Coulson makes everyone stand down. She asks why he's here? He says you're in danger. SHE is Agent LT Koenig. The Koenig guy is her brother, and an idiot.
**WHOA. Koenig secrets go deep! We've always suspected they were LMDs, but AoS has never answered that. Yet. So.....brothers or manufactured?
Koenig whining. She says what happened to you? We had the same parents, same liquor cabinet. Your brothers toughened up and joined the cause. Sam wants a group hug. LT hits him. You let your guard down. LOL. Daisy has a lead on Billy. Anton Ivanov. He has a submarine. LT gave the Darkhold to Billy. Operation Hot Potato. My guess is he put it in the Labyrinth. Only the Koenigs know where it is.
Radcliffe sees combos entered and tells the numbers to AIDA. To a vault. And a drawer. Radliffe says got it. Turn this boat around. Captain says I give the orders. AIDA doesn't like that. Captain wants the info his way. If it's the same, they go. Radcliffe won't allow it. AIDA starts killing. Captain seems a bit impressed. Radcliffe says turn this boat around. Please?
Fitz looking at an old photo. Maybe I'm stuck in a loop. Radcliffe, Ward, my dad. Simmons doesn't see it that way. Yes, they betrayed you, and no one would blame you for putting up your firewall, but you didn't. Who you are is way beyond programming. Fitz gets a brainstorm. Kisses her. You're the best.
Mack turns the bot on. You don't mess with my buddy. Bot says how are you so sure I don't have a soul? If you can have one, so can I. Why did you feel the need to switch me on before killing me? Mack says I like to hear robots scream. Fitz says I know the way around his programming. He starts opening up the bot's head. Bot pleads him to stop. Fitz opens the panel. It has a brain.
Sam leads the team into the library. Daisy asks LT how it was growing up with 4 of them? She says the laundry was disgusting. LOL. Sam goes into a secret passage and tells May and Coulson to wait.
Fitz and Simmons work on the brain. Bot says this is all AIDA and the Darkhold. Simmons says brains.....is it possible? Radcliffe mapped May.
May and Coulson looking at the books. Coulson wants to read Ulysses in pubs in Ireland. She suggests doing it together. She asks if he's ready for what's next? They kiss. LT says we've got company. Sam hurries in. Gives the package to May. Coulson asks for it. What's going on, give it to me. She pulls a gun on him. I can't.
**Poor Coulson. He has the WORST luck with women!
What are you doing, May, put the gun down. She says she can't. This is the right thing to do. Leave me alone and I'll take care of it. He figures out she's not May. She says I didn't know what my mission was until I had my hands on it. I am the real May. Radcliffe made some adjustments. Daisy blasts Maybot. Coulson picks up the satchel. Maybot screams.
Watchdogs arrive with Billy. Coulson says let him go. Slides the satchel to them. They let Billy go. Daisy takes them out. Then she's tasered. Shootout. LT fights with a Russian. Coulson gets another. Billy has the book. May gets it. Radcliffe! He takes it from her. this is exactly what you were supposed to do. I'm eternally grateful. She begs him to take her with him. He says sorry. You weren't built to last.
Sam is not happy. Billy apologizes. Coulson is glad to get the info. Sam and Billy were part of the original LMD program. Agent thought they were robots. LOL. They're technicians. Coulson thanks them for their service. They'll get them home safe.
Bot is destroyed in fire. Maybot is not. Coulson can't do it until they find the real May. Daisy promises we'll find her.
**So where's the "safe place" real May was put? Where did Radcliffe and AIDA take her?
**Is Ivanov the Superior, or does he answer to who Nadeer answers to?
**Guardians of the Galaxy 2 comes out May 5. Will AoS hint at it at all?
Submarine. Captain toasting with Radcliffe and the Watchdog. Radcliffe agrees the onion is better. Ivanov says It is responsible for all the alien problems on this planet. Radcliffe asks what is it? Ivanov shows him photos of Coulson. Radcliffe says he's not dead. Ivanov wants to get to him. Radcliffe seems to agree.
Next ep - Coulson's search for May. She means everything to me. SHIELD ends up in a trap. Mace in the middle.
