What, you don't think I should help Simmons rescue Will?

Do you think you should? He's the competition. If your girlfriend's ex wants to visit from Phoenix, you do not buy him a plane ticket.

That's really specific. Anyway, this guy kept Simmons alive. I owe him. He deserves my help.

Is that a person?

Oh god.

Is he dead?

No they're monitoring him. He's alive.

But in, some kind of what... a coma?

This is ATCU. This is where they're storing Inhumans they find. Like animals in cages.

Safe as houses.

What?

It's an expression, people say that.

Sure. And someday you can tell me how you survived the Dust Bowl and the Hoover Administration, Grandpa.

That's an ugly side of you, Daisy.

The ATCU is looking for a cure. I'm not suggesting that's for everyone, because it's not, but some people might want to...

We are not a disease.

I didn't say that you were.

You can't just expect people to go through that kind of change and immediately have a handle on it. Do you remember how scared I was at first?

Yes, I also remember you iced yourself so that you wouldn't hurt any of us. You've got to admit, things are getting out of hand.

Just admit it, you're afraid of people like me. Afraid of our power.

Absolutely. Do you even know your own strength? Could you take down this plane for instance?

I wouldn't do that.

But if you wanted to? You could kill me right now. Mankind's scary enough as it is, some psycho gets a gun and watch out. But now, people are their own weapon.

Not everyone is like...

Some is enough. That's all it takes.

You only see the terrible things.

That's not true.

I protect people.

It doesn't matter.

How can you say that?

Because for every Daisy Johnson, there's a Lash and it's ignorant for you to think otherwise.

So, are you gonna tell me what really happened? Cause I'm not quite buying this shark attack bit.

You're not buying that? One of my men cut it off. Saved my life.

By chopping off your hand?

Kind of had to be there.

Does it hurt?

Everyday.

Phantom pain. The thing that's missing is the thing that you feel the most.

Makes it hard to forget.

So maybe you don't. But it's also important to look ahead. See what's in front of you.

[after May shoots Andrew into the containment unit and is shown to have survived]

How did you know that wasn't going to kill him?

I didn't.

Revenge only provides a temporary pleasure.

But a pleasure nonetheless.

You should think on a grander scale.

Oh, it'll be grand. I'm going to cut off the head of S.H.I.E.L.D., because without Phil Coulson, S.H.I.E.L.D. won't grow back.

The octopus is one of the great symbols of Hydra. Supremely intelligent, highly adaptable, and they are ruthless killers. A nearly perfect predator. Same could be said of you.

Well it's a terrifying symbol, but not my idea of dinner. Then again, I am adaptable. I hope you can be too.

[flight attendant hands Ward two bottles of alcohol]

Thank you. These should keep me warm. This gonna get you in trouble?

FAFlight Attendant

Up here, I control everything.

Always? You ever find yourself completely out of control?

FAFlight Attendant

I'll be in Moscow soon enough with a day off. Come see for yourself.

I wish I could, but I'm not going to Moscow. This was the only flight I could find passing over Zepkow. [whispers into her ear, she backs away in terror] [on intercom] Ladies and gentlemen, please return to your seats and keep your seat belts fastened. You may experience some turbulence coming up. Don't be alarmed. That's just your pilot diving to equalize cabin pressure before you freeze to death. Oh, and, uh... from all of us here at Hydra, thanks for flying the friendly skies. [clicks detonator, explodes out of airplane]

Do you love him?

I don't know. I think... yes.

Yeah, of course you do. He's strong and smart. And you gave each other hope on the edge of nowhere.

Don't do this Fitz.

You think I didn't look for dirt on him? I did, and there's nothing. I can't hate him, he's great. Why else would you fall for him? He did everything right.

And you dove through a hole in the universe for me.

I know you're all about rebooting Hydra and all that. But do you know much about our history, our origin?

Yeah, World War II, Red Skull used Nazi funding to build this old empire...

[laughs] Red Skull was following the principle that Hydra was built upon, that the ultimate power was not of this world, but Hydra... well, we're much, much older than that.

Thousands of years ago, an Inhuman was born on this planet that was destined to rule it, so powerful, so fearsome that others were consumed with dread, and so they banished it from the Earth, sent it through the portal to a distant planet. Hydra was founded with the sole purpose of engineering its return. Over generations, Hydra's taken different shapes. The entity has been given different names. But every generation has sent men through the portal, hoping to save or at least serve our leader on the other side. Now we're building an army for it to command when it returns, and you and I will rule beside it.

Okay. That's, uh... a lot to take in.

[chuckles] Well, it's a tall tale. I know.

And why exactly should I believe a word of it?

Because we're closer than ever to the final chapter. We're gonna write it ourselves. But you don't have to believe me. I know you want revenge, to cut the head off of S.H.I.E.L.D., to watch it writhe. I'll help you do that.

And in return?

You'll help me learn how S.H.I.E.L.D. was able to achieve something with the portal that Hydra, in thousands of years, has never been able to accomplish.

And what is that?

They brought someone back.

Any sensible girl would swipe left in this moment.

Honestly, don't know what means.

You're such a Luddite.

You know I have a flying car right?

Yeah. It's from the '60s.

Now you know how it feels, Coulson, to have someone you care for bleed out right in front of you.

Ward?

I gotta admit, it still sounds funny when you don't say "agent" first.
