Episode 11:
Daisy watching the tracking screen. Zephyr disappears. Daisy insists they didn't jump. May says they moved above the satellites. Daisy regrets not quaking Nathaniel. May tells her you can't tell Kora about her mother's death. She's unstable.
Team brings Kora in. Inhuman potentials dropped at a hospital. Daisy lifts Kora by her throat. Mack orders her to put kora down. Kora says I'm here to help. Save lives, of course. I want to be an agent of SHIELD.
Zephyr in space. 50,000 miles above Earth and rising. Nathaniel is making it so no one has to call anyone sir again.
Deke sneaking around. Just like Nakatomi Plaza. John Garrett finds him. Yippeekiyay?
Mack and YoYo. Sybil has a strategy. Kora came too easy. Mack says we may be predictable, but so is the enemy.
Kora says she's the perfect candidate to join SHIELD. Daisy asks where Nathaniel is. Kora says our goal is to save lives. Mack returns. Not all lives were saved. Some were taken. Kora says she's sorry about his parents. But they were the proof you needed. Coulson says proof of a new timeline. It's a brand new day. Why not let SHIELD make this universe the best it can be. How? Killing. Want me to list who you've killed to protect others? 30 names we can kill now to save lives. Names history knows. Mack says we're not a death squad. Daisy wants to talk to her sister alone. Kora would like nothing more.
They move to a room. Why are you really here? We're not morons. Kora says we can work together. I've always wanted a sibling. You believe in SHIELD. There must be a reason. Daisy sighs. You grew up in Afterlife? Kora wasn't aware she was confined. I thought I had a happy childhood. Didn't you? Kora is sorry you didn't get that. Daisy says I'm sorry you threw it away. Kora says together we can do anything. Sybil says there's no future where Daisy Johnson lets her sister fight alone. Daisy says she's right, and leaves the room.
Simmons has a flashback to her and Fitz in the cube. Nathaniel wants to see where Fitz is now. She misses Fitz. Nathaniel asks how she's blocking him. He hits her. Tell me how. John, bring in the grandson. hi, Nana. How's your day been?
Daisy packed and wearing her Quake suit. Sousa catches her. Going somewhere? She says for once, don't help. I have to do this on my own. He learned to not let someone do something stupid on their own. Boy Scout troop. She asks if he ever left his post? Snuck off base and got drunk. He says you think I'm the person to do that? She says You coming? They go on the Quinjet. He thought this can't go into space. Not far. But Sybil expects us to follow our nature. Daisy says the only way to get ahead is to be unpredictable. You doing something against regs. And me saving a sister. But I already have a sister. Her name is Jemma Simmons.
Find Z1's location, aim for it, and float. He asks if she's flown this before, right? A few times? A time? She says last moment to change your mind. Mack gets on. How you going to get the doors open without hangar authorization? Daisy explains. Mack lets them out. Tells Sousa to get out of that seat before I change my mind. He's wearing his shotgun ax.
Coulson says they're heading to space. May doesn't like it. He does. You have to shake things up. Director of SHIELD gone rogue. May says Kora seemed sincere. Rage tamped down. Coulson tells her to take a run at her.
Deke hit. Quipping. Nathaniel suggests emotional pain. Crack her skull, put her in a coma, and go fishing around in her brain. Never mind. He knocks Deke out, then tells his men to find a way to get whatever this is out of her head.
Sousa queasy. Artificial gravity engaged. They're out of the atmosphere. Daniel amazed by the view. Mack tells him to strap in. This next bit will be tricky. He says if this doesn't work, we'll freeze to death in space. Controlled burn in 3, 2, 1.
May visits Kora. Kora wants to talk to Daisy. Kora knows May. I saw how you handled that girl in Bahrain. May pushes her emotionally. Arguing until she makes May nervous. Calm down and show me you can handle your power. Kora blasts the wall and power goes out in the Lighthouse.
May returns to Coulson. She took out the power with one punch! And lowered the firewalls. For Sybil. Hello Coulson.
**Trojan horse Inhuman. They were dumb to not lock her in something that would confine her power, or to keep her unconscious. They knew her coming easily was a trap. Come on, guys, you're smarter and more experienced than this. The Lighthouse needs a Cube to hold Inhumans.
That's what Cora was here for. Sybil is in the power grid. Thirsty, Sybil? I know only hunger now. Coulson tells May to stop reciting the messages. Lights on. May asks if he can read the rest. You know what it's like to be code.
Daisy wonders if the OG timeline is still out there. Mack turns off all systems except air and gravity. We should try to conserve oxygen. She tells him Enoch said this is the team's last mission together. Even if we survive? Yeah. He says maybe it's time. She says how can you say that? He says we have this thing called phones. I know you Millennials like to use them to take pictures of yourselves, but back in the 80s, we actually talked on them. She's serious. We can't turn into people that used to be close. She says you guys are my family. I don't know who I am without you guys. He says you know exactly who you are with anyone. She looks to Sousa in front. Really subtle. Cool. She tells him she kissed Sousa. He says that's messed up because Sousa doesn't remember that. LOL. She asks why he's smiling, then? Because YoYo owes me $20. But Mack thinks if things aren't the same.....that's okay.
Only Jemma can use the device. Nathaniel angry. I'm used to getting the things I want. He'll go in her mind and find Fitz himself. She says the deeper you go, the deeper Fitz will go until he disappears completely.
Fitz and Enoch.
Sybil is looking for communication files. Coulson can only slow her down. The only person to purge Sybil is Kora. May says I talked to her already and look how that turned out. He says you were getting a rise from her. Now reach her. Convince her how good she can be. Like you did with YoYo, with Daisy.
Bad guys try to sneak on YoYo. She takes them. Automatic locks aren't working. Hitman was just following orders. Coulson tries reaching Kora. Stop helping the Chronicoms sow chaos. They're trying to rip us away from the timeline. She blasts the guy. There. Now we're a little bit closer to it. Does that feel better?
**Nice to have a moment of the old Mack and Daisy friendship/partnership.
YoYo wants the names from Kora's list. Kora says Grant Ward. Coulson says he's just a child right now. So much pain can be averted with one death. Coulson asks if Garrett is next, then? We've seen a world where Ward was good. People can change. Even you. Kora says my mom thought that, too. May says Jiaying is here. How about we show her now?
Sousa used to hope for this. Everyone in my time. Space. Mack asks Sousa what are your intentions with Daisy. You better get some, and quick. She's into you. She'll figure it out, and when she does, watch out. When she gets something in her head. She won't stop. But Daisy's been hurt. But I like you. You're a good man. But I won't let you hurt her. Understand? Mack says every member of this team would-- Sousa hears it. Loud and clear. I'd never hurt her. Mack says imagine that. The man out of time, and Quake. Like a damn comic book. What did you just call her? Quake. Like a superhero name. Sousa thinks it sounds hilarious. They get the giggles.
Enoch scanned Jemma's brain. 19th century was a strange time for humanity. Fitz is a might jealous. All the time you're spending together. He needs better materials. Enoch says it's good we're building a time machine. Doesn't matter how long it takes. Fitz asks for a moment alone with Jemma. Doesn't matter how long we take. We don't have to rush. Take some time to live. Build a home here. Live together. No mission. No end of the world. We could just....be. Is this about the blood work? No, and yeah. We deserve it. Regardless. He says we should take the time we have. Nathaniel arrives to try to cycle through their last memories together.
May is going to give Kora the truth. Takes her to the floor with Jiaying's body on a gurney. Sheet covers it. Kora peels it back. It's okay. It's okay, she can heal. That's her power. She just needs some help. Take my energy, come on, take it, go on. Please. Nothing happens. Kora's crying. Her neck, it's shattered. A quake. Where's my sister? May says you know who did this, Kora. Kora says Nathaniel must've had a reason. May says your mother died protecting Daisy from him.
Jemma and Fitz arguing about the implant. It's going to do more than intended. He says if you remember, you can't be strong enough to do what you need to do. She doesn't want to forget. Desperately upset. He hugs her. Fitz says it'll be okay, I promise, and disappears. It's only a white room.
Nathaniel says you've scored front row seats to the greatest show on earth. Jemma goes to Deke, who's awake. I assume from his attitude he didn't find Fitz. She says Fitz? Who's Fitz?
**Oh no. That's what she meant by Fitz disappearing. Plus her having trouble remembering things before and needing Enoch's help. The more she thinks of Fitz, the more she loses of him and things related to him. Until he's gone. Poor Jemma.
**Timeline where Jemma and Fitz had a daughter is long gone. Good thing people exist when completely removed from their OG timeline.
**How are we wrapping in 2 episodes????
Jiaying wasn't oerfect, but you loved each other. I felt it. Kora says no, she loved who I was. It faded. May says Nathaniel is using that pain, using you. Kora disagrees. May says he only wants chaos. Kora attacks May. May rebounds. Kora lights up. Blasts a wall. Melts a hole. John arrives to teleport her away.
Coulson is a computer genius now. The last thing Sybil accessed. SHIELD bases. Everything from the ..... Oh no. They didn't go to space to hide.
Mack says prepare for docking. Daisy thanks Sousa for being here. He says it's nothing. Quake. Teasing her. Suggests a Q on her utility belt. She says smart to make fun of the person who can quake you to dust. Mack grins at their flirting. Reinforcements arrive for the bad guys.
Nathaniel kills the guy who says sir. Yells at the rest. Chronicom ships. Sybil contacted her homeworld years ago. Modified the fleet. Signal summoned them. Nathaniel tells them to fire any time they want.
Lighthouse calls the Hub. They see all the bases lost one by one. All over the world. They're destroying SHIELD.
Including the Triskelion.
**If SHIELD is gone in the 80s????? We're not in a good world, people. Who might've been at those bases at the time? How many names will we know who die in the blasts? Well, we've seen SHIELD fall before and agents who weren't killed still did their best and eventually came together again.
Nathaniel watches. John always wanted to be part of something bigger. Nathaniel happy to see Kora back. Thank you for today. He caresses her. Couldn't have done it without you. She asks if they gave people new life? he says they did, by ending so, so many. He kisses her.
Next ep - Last mission. Sybil says the war is over and you lost. 2 hour finale. Farewell event. Quake vs. Malick.
