There are three million people on this island, and I'm not going to let Hydra turn them into collateral damage.

Be honest, Skye. Haven't you ever felt lost or had that feeling that you were part of something bigger? Like you were special?
When you say "special," what you really mean is "alien."
Is that what you believe? We're human, Skye. We just have the potential to be more. But the Diviner? Now that is most definitely alien.
Where do you get this stuff? My father?
Partly. But my grandmother came from a long line of special people who believed in a story, about the blue angels that fell from the heavens. The ancients called them the Kree.
And what do the Kree want?
Change.
Skye, I give you my word; come with me, we won't fire a single shot. Everyone gets out alive.
Good one. Is that what you told my brother before you killed him?
How many of you are there?
[to Ward] Maybe you don't remember, but we've played this game of "let's kidnap Skye" before, and it didn't end well for you.
[to Skye] I'm sorry I couldn't be there for you, that I couldn't protect you. That I couldn't teach you about the stars...[voice breaking] Or sing you to sleep. I know I'm a terrible disappointment, but I'm here now. And everything that's about to happen is supposed to happen.
[to Skye] I'll make plenty of time to answer all of your questions. But first, now that he's served his purpose, I'm gonna kill the man who destroyed my life. Best day ever.
[after shooting Ward]) Never turn your back on the enemy. You taught me that.
This is your one chance to walk away, or I will kill you.
Okay. I'll go. But I'll be waiting for you. After you change, no one else will understand. They'll be afraid. Change is terrifying. But I'm your father, and I love you. I will always love you, Daisy.
We did not fail! Trip prevented a disaster, and Whitehall's dead. We cut off the head. And while Hydra scrambles for a new one, I will crush them! I'm gonna make somebody pay, whoever the hell it is.
"They'll never take us alive!"? Really? A little over the top, don't you think?
I only had a day to come up with this whole thing. Besides, if I let you write the script, no one would say anything.
Raina, let's not lose our heads.
What happened to me?!
Metamorphosis, by the look of it.
I was supposed to become something divine, something transcendent. My grandmother said I'd be an angel, not some gnarled freak of nature covered in thorns.
You always did like flowers.
I can't live like this. My insides feel like gravel. I cut myself when I move. [crying] I can't live as this repulsive creature.
Then don't.
There's something very wrong with me.
No, you're just different now. You're just different now, and there's nothing wrong with that.
Not bad. But once I'm pinned, you should try for a finishing blow.
You want full Mortal Kombat?
I want you to stop holding back, Skye.
I didn't want to hurt you. I didn't want to try to hurt you. I feel like I'm constantly on the verge of…I don't know.
Look... we lost Trip, and it hurts like hell, but you can't shut those feelings out. Can't sustain that.
What's my option? l just might lose it right here?
We've talked about this. Control. Embrace your emotions, your nerves. Use them... on your terms.
I don't know. What I'm feeling…is pretty dark. I'm afraid I'm gonna go postal and tear your head off.
Go for it. I promise you won't.
Skye is my friend. She's different.
Oh, yeah. Like I was your friend, and then I changed. How did you handle that?
Uh, t-the point is, secrets don't help any of us. Skye should have just come clean.
What, and risked being locked up, studied, or who know what else? No, I wouldn't let her.
Oh, you wouldn't let her.
We could have handled her in a way that could have kept everybody safe.
It wasn't fair to us, Fitz. We had a right to know.
A right to know. What - is that the same way that Sif and the Kree had the right to know?
I think the situation is a bit different, mate.
No, you would have done to her exactly what they wanted to.
You don't know that!
Yes, I do know that! They would - you would - you'd "handle her"! Mack just said! Like, uh... like Skye's something to be locked up in a cage somewhere. We should be protecting her.
No, Fitz. We're the ones that need the protection from her.
