Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. · Season 1
I'm sorry she [Robin] had to go like that. You want to talk about it?
I, um... don't know where to start.
An old woman tells you that she was your daughter and that you'll save the planet from cracking apart. Doesn't happen every day.
It's hard to believe.
That we can do it?
That... I was a mom. I just... I can't see it.
I can.
Yeah. You'd be that no phone, no TV, 7:30 curfew kind of mom. [May scowls] You're kind of... proving my point with the face.
As the gravitational forces accelerate, our chances of implosion are rapidly increased.
Tell me your primary function again?
To observe and record the evolution of your species.
More observing, less sharing.
"Don't do anything rash, stay calm, and don't kill anyone, Yo-Yo." Yes, I remember your many stern warnings.
Okay. 'Cause we both know you don't exactly do well around people like this.
Evil men who kidnap and torment defenseless women and children? No, I don't.
Stand down or experience death like your friend, many, many times.
You're a real piece of work, you know that?
I am a god to be feared. Humans beg to be ruled. Without me, they'd have perished long ago.
I guess you're not a New Testament guy. Vengeance and torment are tools of the Devil.
And of the weak.
You want a devil? I'll show you a Hell you cannot imagine.
You're no god, no devil. You're just a cruel, sad, little blue man. So why don't we skip to the part where I end this?
Guns, man! It's like cheating! They shouldn't give these to anyone that's not a really, really good person.
You think there'd be a law.
[Yo-Yo meets her future self]
I waited so long to see myself again, still with hope in my eyes.
How are you alive?
They killed me, brought me back to take my blood, my DNA, then again and again for years. They revive me when they want, kill me when they don't.
What? H-How? How many times?
I held on to the thought of this moment.
No. This is wrong.
But this time, when they asked me how our team fought back, I tried to give them as little as I could. But I knew you were close. You and Mack. Mack. He's still alive. Hold him for as long as you can.
Oh, damn it. Really? We had to leave the machine in the hands of some automaton? I knew the moment that I laid eyes on all of you that it was gonna spell my downfall. I'll go. I'll secure the machine and save the weird robot.
Well, I'll come. It'd be better if we take the plane together.
Yeah. No duh. But none of the time travelers can go, because you all need to be at the rendezvous when it's turned on, so do the math.
You're one guy against the Kree. You'll be massively outgunned.
I'm kind of trying to do the whole hero thing here, man. Is that your pep talk? You guys get killed, and who saves the world then? I told my parents not to believe in this roach-crap fairy tale, and they went and they died for it anyway. And I'm probably next in line. But there is no way in hell that I am gonna let some blue Kreeper destroy that machine before I get to see whether or not that damn thing was worth any of this.
Look, I'm sure you put up a good fight, but if my ride home depends on that machine, I'm gonna secure it myself.
You, you drive me out of my skull, this part of you this impetuous, bullheaded squabble
I was offering backup, genius.
No, when the other side of you is a friggin' hero who can't help herself but do good, then be great. The world needs that person to make it home. Just try not to destroy it when you get there.
It was almost nice knowing you.
And you're a pain in my ass.
Phil Coulson is dying. And you have to let him.
Coulson? How? How does he die?
It's already begun. He's sick, and he knows it. We tried to stop it. Loyalty, it cost us the world.
[To Flint] You got this. Just concentrate.
He's a bright kid. Sorry I killed the guards in front of him.
Yeah. It's good to see him building something. There's too much death in this place. And asking him to blow out that window and the Krees didn't help.
Oh, that wasn't me. That was the fiancée.
Fiancée?
What are you observing now?
Various potential threats. You'd be surprised how frequently S.H.I.E.L.D. is mentioned.
We have a small but active fan base.
Hey, could be worse.
True. We could be enslaved by an alien sociopath in a dystopian future.
Or we could be trapped inside a virtual-reality fascist state.
Or stuck at the bottom of the ocean.
Or stopping a crazy robot lady.
Or falling out of a plane.
Fighting Daisy's mom.
Or fighting Daisy's dad.
Or dancing.
I know what's got you worried.
No, it's just...
"How will I ever find job satisfaction without crushing rocks for no good reason?" Am I right?
It's like you can read my mind.
Um, Chief... Wellins, is it? I'm here for Deke Shaw over there. I'm his state-assigned social worker.
Well, he didn't mention a social worker was supervising him. Your name?
Sinara. Sinara Smith. It's Portuguese, Sinara, not Smith. Uh, he wandered off during a day trip. My apologies.
He was out of control.
Yeah.
Says you.
He's not even my toughest customer, believe me. Just a little... slippery. If you check online, you'll see that I sent out an alert when I lost him.
What are Mr. Shaw's issues?
I mean, how much time do you have, sir? Uh, complex neurological deficiencies, low... low I.Q., poor motor skills. Oh, he hasn't, uh, soiled himself today, has he?
How do you show up in another time and, like, immediately get arrested?
Have you even tried Zima?
I thought they might have gotten you to talk about us or something.
What? No. I know you guys are covertness. I'm not gonna talk about you. You forget, I survived the Kree.
Yeah, by ratting people out.
Yes, true, that did happen. But not this time.
I thought you'd be, like, emotionally distraught or something.
Emotionally distraught? This is awesome! I thought that I was gonna die. But instead, I'm about to go for a walk outside. Also, there is "an outside." I was walking here, and, yes, I was pretty drunk, but I... I saw in a store window there was these green apples and steaks and these... and these things called gummy bears. You know what people aren't eating here is sterilization pellets. I love this place so much.
How could you... keep this from us?
I'm sorry. I didn't want you trying to find a solution when we had bigger problem...
We had a solution. Tess was brought back from the dead. We had a solution right there.
I didn't want to go through all that... again.
So you just give up? You don't get to do that. You make life-and-death decisions for us all the time, and we're not allowed the same courtesy? After everything? We deserved to... We deserved to know. [Leaves, with Coulson looking on]
How much more time does he have on his clock?
Um, I won't be able to tell until I can chart its progression, but even now, he's at risk of various... At some point, sir, your heart will just stop beating.
