Episode 12:
Here we are, folks. The end.
Chronicoms firing on Earth. Quinjet flying in. Less than a minute to dock with the Zephyr. Sousa asks what happens if they get the rescue done? One problem at a time. Docked. Nice flying, Tremors. Zephyr in a tractor beam. Into a Chronicom hangar. Looks cool. Good effects for the finale. Sousa says so, this is the next problem.
No one coming for the door. Possible they're on the other side doing the exact same thing? LOL. Mack opens the door. Nothing happens. They enter the Zephyr. Checking it systematically. Zephyr empty. Scan their ship, see if we can find our team.
Malick and Coms taking Deke and Simmons through the halls. They're put in a cell.
Nathaniel meets Sybil in person. Super impressive. What a triumph. All SHIELD targets destroyed except for the Lighthouse. Malick will take a different approach on it. Jemma got an injection that will dissolve her implant. We'll learn the truth.
May's feeling a lot. All the lives lost. YoYo wonders why they weren't attacked. Coulson says Sybil is smart. Electronic noise. Coulson can't stop it. Lock down while I figure this out.
Kora asks Nathaniel about the Chronicoms. And her mother. He says I did it for you, to protect you. You don't see the evil in others. He lies about Jiaying. She only wanted to control you. She resented you. I'm here to set you free, to show you how powerful you can be. She says it was terrible to see her on a table like that. He'll bury her and everyone that tried to hurt her. By Kora's face, she has doubts.
John in the Lighthouse. Attaches a Chronicom box to a wall. (That's actually a CPU heatsink with an LED in it lol.)
Deke examining the door. Jemma has a tingle in her head. Deke tries to get her to remember Fitz. Does a Fitz impression. He figures her injection is about her having a secret. She says everything inside is swirling.
Zephyr. Scan shows a lot of Chronicoms. Two warmer signals. And Kora's there. Sousa asks how they do this? Daisy will infiltrate and bring them back. Mack will get the hangar doors open. She'll be back. Daniel kisses her. She kisses him back. She's glad he did. I'll see you when I get back. Mack says impressive. Thank you. Awww.
Garrett's here. On the lowest level. Zoom in. Coulson says it's a Chronibomb. YoYo gave them a hard drive. Coulson's working on something to replicate the panels that prevented Gordon from teleporting.
Sybil spots them. I didn't see you coming because it is meaningless. The war is over and you've lost.
Nathaniel wants them killed now. Sybil tells a Hunter to kill the humans on the Zephyr. She tells Malick to not interfere with Daisy. The odds are higher if she interacts with Simmons. Be patient.
Sousa and Mack trying to remain positive. Work the problem. Mack decides to make some noise. Blow those hangar doors to pieces. Fires missiles at them. Nothing happens. What else do we have? LOL.
Nathaniel tells Kora Daisy is full of hate and quaked the world apart in the other timeline. But we're more powerful. We're the good guys. Only Daisy can ruin that. She's very bad. We need to finish Daisy off now.
Coulson marks an X on the floor. May getting used to the idea of him as a techy. He's still getting used to being tech. She says we're not the people we were. Do we change the timelines or they change us? He says the old May wasn't so philosophical. She asks How did that become this me? He likes this you. And I like this me as well. John teleports in. What's with the X? YoYo wraps John up in the cuffs. He tries to teleport and is locked in. That hurt. He collapses. He can't deactivate the bombs from here. How many? 12 of them. Coulson tells him to call it off.
Calls Nathaniel. Deactivate those bad boys. Malick says that's not the plan. John wants more time. 10 minutes tops. Nathaniel thanks him for his service. Bombs power up. YoYo runs with that one. There's an explosion and Coulson shields May with his body. LOVE THAT.
**Phil and Melinda still love each other. They just haven't had time to address it or do something about it with all the weirdness and evil bad guys.
Lighthouse damage. YoYo yells for them. He needs a hand. Over here. She lifts debris. Help me with May. May coughs. Can you stand? Yeah. YoYo moved all the bombs to one place. They look for Garrett. He's out. Dead? Bleeding. Coulson says they have to stop it. He's our best chance to help our friends in space.
Mack and Sousa have a plan. Chronicoms are here to take your faces. Mack fires a shockwave. Blows the Hunters back. Sousa impressed. They only had one. Mack picks up a rifle. We just have to hold them off until the others get back.
Daisy is walked by and ignored.
Garrett should make it. YoYo comes back injured. Speared myself with a piece of rebar. We're trapped under here. John is mad at Malick. Whatever happened to team loyalty. Coulson says this timeline is different. Nothing's written. Here's your chance to be on the right side of history. Coulson is hearing a pattern in the sounds.
Daisy gets to Deke and Jemma. He tells her about the injection. Jemma's memories are random. Jemma asks about the costume. She wants one. They say yes. Follow me and you'll get one. Deke asks how she got in here. Daisy says no one stopped me. It's like they want me to find Simmons.
Sybil says the device has been dissolved. Nathaniel says Kora is resting. Sybil says the truth will pour out. We'll learn if Fitz is alive. And the rest? They're trapped. Do with them as you wish.
Mack and Sousa. 50 shells. That's real peachy. Mack says you need new words. Don't let Daisy hear you talk like that. Why? Is it bad now? No. It's a fine word and you're a fine man. Maybe this is the end. Sousa says so.....let's take out more than 50. He remembers the nuclear bomb the Chronicoms tried to set off with one robot at Area 51. What could we do with 6 of them? Mack says a hell of a lot.
Jemma remembers being married. I can smell his hair but can't see his face.
Marriage is the key. Heart and hand. And singing. I'm afraid we stopped. Oh God.
Sybil says here it comes.
Kora confronts them in the hall.
Sybil asks Nathaniel what he's done? Kora. She's going to ruin it.
Hello, sister.
Daisy appeals to Kora. You didn't tell me our mom was dead. Kora says I don't need protection. Fires her power and Daisy repels it. Daisy tells them to get to the Zephyr. She'll catch up. Kora says Mom was a monster. Daisy says Jiaying loved you more than anything but she didn't know how to help you. She was afraid for you. Kora isn't believing it. Daisy keeps appealing to her. Mom had me over love and grief from losing you. Come with me. Kora says it's too late. We've won. Nathaniel and I will rule over everyone. Daisy keeps trying.
0-8-4. It's dangerous. John offers to get them out. I'll be your teleporting taxi. Coulson says he doesn't think they have other options.
Sousa and Mack readying their bomb. Deke and Simmons arrive. Daisy's dealing with Kora. She said not to wait. Jemma says she knows the place. Home. He tells them Jemma is remembering and forgetting at the same time. Deke asks if they have a plan other than a suicide bomb. Mack says this was in case you didn't return. Sousa wants to find Daisy. Mack tells him to stand down and find some duct tape.
Sybil mad at Nathaniel. Nathaniel finds Kora. She says I don't think Daisy's bad. She said things and they made sense. I'm sorry. He shoots Kora, then. Lock her up in a cell. A minion gets a promotion.
Daisy on board. Mack and Sousa at the cockpit. Zephyr stealthing and hovering. Armed light. That button right there. Sousa fires their bomb. Mack hopes this works. Two bombs at the door. Explosion. They fly out through the fire!
The bar. They teleport in. Freeze! Hands in the air! John takes a bullet to the brain from the inhabitants. Coulson glares at the people in the dark.
**45 minutes into the first hour. Will there be a Koenig in the SHIELD bar?
Hands behind your head before another person gets shot. YoYo offers to disarm them. Coulson tells them he's an Agent of SHIELD. Did everyone here respond to the same coded broadcast? Gamble comes forward. Why didn't you use the door? May tells them this man was a double agent. YoYo says you did the world a favor. They were told to bring 0-8-4s. Gamble got one from his grandfather. Another from 1948. Locked in a woman's basement. Protect at all costs. They open the packages. Coulson figuring them out. Mack and co enter! Mack and YoYo smile and hug. Daisy hugs Coulson. Then May hugs her. Sorry. Not sure what happened. Daisy says it's good. Just new. Jemma asked if she recognizes them. Daisy and Deke explain what happened to her. Sousa asks who sent that message. Mack says we can't stay long. Chronicoms will come. Jemma putting the devices together. Holy matrimony. They need to be married. Two becomes one. Three becomes one. Why do I know this? We're missing something. Old guy says sorry I'm late! Damn bus broke down. He got it from Enoch or one of the Koenigs. Jemma takes the tuning fork. Sets it off. Wall opens. Hidden room. What's in there? The end or the beginning. I can't remember. Jemma takes the device to the place is belongs. Coulson is kinda disappointed it doesn't do something. Daisy tells Jemma to think...... Jemma remembering they were at her wedding. I was married. I am married. I have proof. The ring! Why can't I remember whom I married? She places the ring and the device lights up and hums. Light on the ceiling. Portal bring a man with a helmet. Fitz! Jemma. You did it! It worked! She doesn't remember me, does she? Damn.
**9:58PM
Sybil says there's a new anomaly. A massive power drain in NYC. Nathaniel wants hunters. I'll finish off SHIELD. Sybil says there is a 100 percent chance this is the last time the SHIELD team will be together.
Ep 13:
The end.
Glad to see you all in one piece. They all argue with Fitz. He says we can go back to our original timeline and save it. That's where I just came from. I know this hasn't been easy. But we had no choice. We hoped you would survive this far to give us the key to save our world Kora. Where is she? With the enemy. Nathaniel Malick. Jiaying is dead. Fitz says this is pivotal. We need to work around that. Get the quantum bridge on the Zephyr so we can go home. He says stuff about dimensions and we can travel through the Quantum Realm. Coulson and Mack don't want to leave this world to get destroyed. Coulson says these people have suffered enough. Deke asks questions about Fitz's device. We can make enough energy to bring the Chronicom ships with us. Someone will have to stay behind and set it off. Daisy says this is the last mission together, isn't it? Enoch told us. Before he died. Fitz says it's true. No matter the outcome, this is the last time we're all in the same room together. Ever. Sousa offers to stay. I belong here. It's only right. If the Army taught me anything, it's that... Deke says I'll stay. You and Daisy have a real thing going and I want you to be happy. And as long as Fitz and Nana reconnect, I'll see you again some day. Besides.....I'm a rock god here, anyway. I've made up my mind. Let's do it, people!
Zephyr in the air.
Cables into the bar. Deke says we're ready on this end. Mack tells him to watch over everyone. May says they're ready. Mack counts. On three! 1 2 3. Flying at the Chronicom ships. Device goes off.
Device is gone. Power's out. Deke stuck with the agents in 1983. Including a young Victoria Hand.
**Fitz had an Ant Man helmet!
Quantum Realm! Fitz needs to take it slow with Jemma or her mind will collapse. Jemma? I was going to tell your friends a story and I wonder if you can fill in the blanks. When she was young, she had scoliosis. She'd lie on her back with her father. Do you remember what your favorite constellation was? Lock onto that name. That's where we went. Enoch saved us wearing another skin. He got us out of there. Turn this Quinjet around. Enoch, put your face on. You're freaking everyone out. LOL. Jemma asks Enoch how? He has a copy of the Time Stream. Zephyr lands. Flint made a monolith to do what had to be done. Enoch says wait here. We'll be right back.
They rush on the Zephyr. Pick a star system. Jemma knows the one. They arrived safely and Fitz studied the Time Stream with a device on his head. Jemma feared for him. But they needed solutions. Only one path that gave us a chance to succeed. It took a while to make their designs.
We lived. For years. Had our happily ever after. We didn't want to say goodbye. We put it off. But we couldn't stay forever. Jemma scared. She doesn't want to forget. They made Coulson.
Jumped back to the moment they left. To Piper and Flint. With the Cube. Piper asks Are you guys messing with time again? Jemma says Guard this with your life. Keep it safe and I'll give you anything you ask for in return.
Fitz says they're on the clock now. He reminds her for us, it'll be an instant. Stay strong. Fitz in the Cube. His mind couldn't handle the implant, so he stayed behind.
Jemma forgot him. The Zephyr time traveled.
Jemma says you were with me the whole time. Fitz. Yeah, Jemma. She can't figure out.......Daisy says Jemma remembers him but not that she loves him. Fitz says she's forgotten something far more important. He needs to fill them in.
He built Coulson for this moment.
Nathaniel and Sybil arguing. He calls this a Grateful Dead poster. LOL. Sybil thinks they're heading to the original timeline. Earth is within our grasp. Nathaniel says no one knows the future anymore.
Hook Kora up. Time to take her power.
Orders to the team. But Mack has something for YoYo and Sousa to do. Unfinished business at the Temple. Yeah, I don't believe it, either. It was THEM the whole time! Arriving with Jemma!
**10:22PM. Little more than half the last episode ever. WAAAAHHH
Arriving at Earth. Team in the Quinjet.
Zephyr will be scanned. Coulson says wait for our moment.
Sybil orders the Zephyr found and destroyed.
Team in the suits meet up with Jemma and Enoch. Jemma. Fitz. YoYo. Sousa. Take a sample. Help YoYo from the temple. Zephyr in this time lifts off.
Zephyr spotted on Earth. Chronicoms fire.
Coulson says NOW.
The temple is destroyed. Zephyr from the past time travels while the current one goes at the ships.
Fitz goes quantum in the cube.
Quinjet team told to head to the Lighthouse. Mack compliments May's flying. She says that used to be all I did. LOL.
Sybil doesn't believe Zephyr 1 is destroyed.
Daisy tells them to be careful with the radioactive Chronicoms. She's beating them while Mack and Coulson continue, split up. Mack shooting with the shotgun ax. Coulson breaking robot necks.
Sybil grabs Coulson. Time for you to be reassigned.
Nathaniel finds Daisy. I've studied the opponents you've faced. I'm honored to be the last. His eyes glow with Kora's power. Daisy not thrilled with that revelation.
YoYo punches Chronicom Hunters. Sousa impressed. They're in the Lighthouse. Sousa asks if he can help. Jemma connecting....I think I remember why we did all this. Tears. I think I remember what we're fighting for.
Daisy vs. Nathaniel. He can't wait to see how it plays out. Like it did with your mother. I snapped her neck fair and square. Power vs. powe. Plus martial arts. He head butts her. Quakes at her.
Mack opens a door. unhooks Kora. Picks her up.
Sybil will tear everything but Chronicom hardware out of Coulson. He says the war's over. Fitz and Simmons are taking over the Lighthouse as we speak. She orders the Hunters and the ships to attack. Coulson says we just needed you to enter your authorization. Oh? What comes next? The Cavalry. May and Coulson beating the bad guys together.
Mack arrives with Kora. Coulson tells her we're fighting for the very thing that gives us strength. She knows what that is. I can do it.
Chronicoms in the Lighthouse. Fitz has the antenna's nearly in position.
Kora lights up. May enters the interface to give the Chronicoms empathy. Kora fires.
Lighthouse invaded. Kora's light hits it.
Daisy flies to quake at Malick.
Glow ends. YoYo asks them if they're friends or enemies. Friends. As we have always been.
Daisy gets up.
Mack and Coulson. Mack says she has to do her part, whatever the cost.
Daisy tells Nathaniel the Chronicoms are on our side on the planet. Nathaniel says not up here. You can't stop them. No way to kill me without killing yourself. She grabs his arm. That's the idea. She blasts him with everything.
Zephyr flies away.
Debris in space. Daisy's body. Zephyr takes her in. Kora uses her power on her. Daisy wakes. The rest relieved. Coulson says this is what we were fighting for. Daisy says Family.
The Cube. Piper and Flint were scared. Did we guard this thing for nothing? Fitz says no. You guarded our everything. The Cube has two chambers. Their little girl!!! Fitz sits, grateful. Jemma hugs her. Mama, what's wrong? Jemma crying. Nothing, sweet girl. Nothing.
Montage of FitzSimmons life with her.
You said you would be gone for a long time, but that wasn't long. Felt like forever with Jemma. Daughter says There was a loud noise. Awww. Jemma's tears show her relief as she hugs her again.
**10:45PM. They've won. Or have they yet?
One year later. The bar. Coulson in a suit. Daisy says looking good. He says I never change. YoYo and May arrive, too. Fitz and Jemma. Coulson's idea for the place. Mack arrives. Sorry. Situation in Moscow that needed my attention. It's classified. He's liking the new digs. But he's not used to a view. YoYo chasing an 0-8-4. The most decorated agent. Piper is questioning her reward. And May? I hate it. Coulson says no you don't. May says this is the first time I feel exhausted. FitzSimmons is exhausted, too. Their daughter is learning to swim. She wants to make her own fish. They keep telling her they can't. Well, we can, but it wouldn't be legal. The family sent a ton of presents. They got a nice letter from Sousa. How sweet is it he writes letters? Daisy got him a typewriter. She showed him ET. He cried like a baby. He calls us the Astro Ambassadors. He's a dork. Speaking of dorks. What is Coulson going to do? He is going to take time. Continue reassessment. See the world. They offer him places. YoYo is approaching her drop zone. May and Daisy say they have to go. Jemma says this needs to be a tradition. Mack agrees. We can't lose touch. Miracle we survived. Coulson says if this is a contest, I died like 7 times. They miss Deke. Mack is sure he's just fine. YoYo says that's it. Same time next year? She leaves.
In a car. Piper picking at the driver. Davis is an LMD! YoYo gets out.
May tells Phil to swing by. Tell some stori3es to the newcomers. They'll love that. He says you might be seeing me. May disconnects. Flint says we're 5 minutes late. She says I'm giving the lecture. At the Coulson Academy.
Picnic in the garden. Monkey punching Fitz in the leg. He leaves. Jemma disconnects.
Looks to her family playing.
Mack confirms that Coulson received the package. Gives the code. I'm still a mechanic at heart. Be careful out there. Both of you. He leaves. He's on a helicarrier!
Not the same without these guys. No it's not. Coulson has places he always wanted to go. Daisy says look at what you did here. There were people who were lost. Show promise. If you don't find them, who will? He asks about her new recruit. She says she's doing great. Funny what you can do when someone believes in you. He says give me a call when you get back and leaves.
She's last to disconnect. Sousa asks if they're good. Kora says you have to see this. Amazing, right? A beautiful nebula.
Phil opens the case. Key fob. Alarm disarmed. It's Lola! He puts his sunglasses on and fires her up. It transforms to fly. Changes color. Revs the engine. Cool. He flies through a city.
That's it, guys. We're out of show. Let's hope the MCU will eventually show them respect.
