[Under the influence of hallucinogens]
Do you remember when we first met?
Yeah. You lived in a van.
Mm-hmm.
And it really smelled.
No, it didn't.
Yeah. We called it the Fartmobile. You had, You had big hair.
You had big nerd face. What house are you in, hm? Gryffindor?
Uh, Ravenclaw. Girl, please.
Do you know any spells?
[Waves a straw] Expecto Patronum! [Hallucinates a miniature Fitz in a monkey costume balancing on the straw] Hello, little monkey Fitz.
[Under a table, still under the influence of hallucinogens]
Hey, I think my parents are mice.
That makes sense.
I'm sorry for dragging you across the universe.
Oh, no, don't be. It's good. It's only made us closer.
I just miss Fitz so much.
Aw, yeah. I'm sorry. I wish I had my own Fitz. Well, not Fitz, but, you know...
No, I know. You've had just awful luck in that department. It's so sad. But you are so strong now and so confident. I'm so proud of you.
Really? It means so much coming from you.
You just mean so much. You're my best friend.
I love you, too.
Your skin is so soft.
[Later, after emerging from under the table]
P-Pardon me, sir, but I have reason to believe that my husband, sorry, uh, my future husband is behind that door.
And what reason is that?
Uh, the the the dolphin told me in a secret signal only I can hear that was meant just for me.
[Enoch has been decommissioned]
Why do I exist? I am nothing. I'm a speck of dust in the infinite...
Okay, Enoch...
An afterthought in the worm-ridden mind of the black void.
Okay. I'm gonna need you to spark up. So you take a break from being infinite nothing and do that for me?
Why would I do anything when there is no purpose? We will all soon be dust and rust.
'Cause you're my best friend. Remember? That's your purpose.
You're bluffing.
No. I'm not. I can't believe I'm saying this, because you are...
...Chronicom. Decommissioned.
Gonna say a massive pain in the ass, but you've grown on me. So, yeah. You are my best friend.
For you, my best friend, I would do anything.
So, you and Mack, in his office.
Yeah.
You told him. I wish you would have talked to me about it.
If it makes you feel better, he didn't exactly let me finish.
He doesn't want to know so he doesn't have to put us on different missions.
I'm sure that's part of it, but... It's just, I also got the sense that he isn't over you.
Why would you tell me that?
You should know how he feels before or if we... You should know. But to be clear, I'm in. I will fight for you if I have to. Not fight-fight—Mack terrifies me—but more emotionally fight.
Ugh. Always acting so noble.
I think you like that act.
Wait, you were S.H.I.E.L.D. this entire time?
Did you really think we were gonna let you rip off all our tech?
Even at the Phish concert? Wait, wait, uh, what about when we went to the escape room and you froze up? Was that all just an act? I bet that you could've solved that word cypher and we could've gotten out of there in record time, but, no, you just had to...
We got to move.
Hey, just-just... Hold on. Wait, wait, wait. Just-just please tell me one thing, okay? Just tell me you weren't letting me win in "Remorath Rumble".
Okay. I won't tell you that.
It's, uh probably too fast, but how would you feel about bringing an alien bird into our relationship? [Off Yo-Yo's look] So that's a no.
There are people out there that are after me, okay, and I don't know why. I think it's because I'm not supposed to be here. Like, I'm not supposed to exist in this reality. Do you remember I explained this to you on the Playa?
Once again, this is all about you.
No, just this... But this time it is about me. It... Look, if there's one thing I know how to do, it's run away and survive, so you're gonna follow me, okay?
I think you might be the prettiest butterfly I've ever made.
There is no hope, only loss. Decommissioned. Hunted. I have become a cautionary tale used to steer children away from a life of crime and excess.
Would it be rude to turn him off? His constant complaining is giving me a headache.
Yeah, well, you are the Puff-Head who got high and shot up our super-threatening fuse box, so...
Never mind. Sorry I was wrong. The source of the headache is Piper. Definitely Piper.
Poor Fitz. Though now I walk alone, I will never forget my one and only friend.
Your only friend? But you have us.
When last we met, I forcibly abducted your team and sent you all into a dystopian future.
Yeah, maybe not the best start, but in the end, you really came through.
I did?
In the future, you sacrificed yourself for us. Without you, we never would have been able to get home and save Earth from destruction.
Fitz has been a most loyal companion. He and I have had many adventures together.
I am trying to save our entire race, and you are concerned about the welfare of one human. Why?
Because we have recently become best friends.
It seems Earth has made you soft.
I do not disagree that I have changed, but I believe it is for the better. One must change to grow.
I hardly recognize you anymore. The Enoch I invited into my charging pod was reckless but not a traitor.
I cannot believe I ever granted you access to my data port.
I have not seen this future myself, but there is only one logical conclusion. If anyone can solve the mysteries of time travel, it is Leopold Fitz.
This is true?
It's possible. Likely, even, but he hasn't done it yet, and the chances of him re-creating it are next to zero.
Explain.
If he did this, he'd have his whole life to figure it out and the end of the world as motivation.
You claim he is your best friend, but we are the last of our kind. You have knowledge that could aid us. What would motivate him to do what we need?
[Points at Simmons] Her. Put Jemma Simmons in danger, and Fitz can solve anything.
I've made hard choices before. Being right doesn't stop it from feeling wrong.
I know what you mean. Two years back, I got a call. Car crash.
Your husband?
Brain-dead, machines breathing for him. Tom didn't want that. His family fought me on it, but after a few days, I had them turn off the ventilator. They never will forgive me. It's the hardest choice I've ever made, but I took comfort in knowing it was the right one. And so should you.
Enoch was right. Fitz can't solve time travel without me, but not as a hostage, as his partner. Fitz and I, we're a team. Let the others leave, and I'll go with you.
No. No, no. Don't do this. We will find another way.
But there isn't one. We're impossibly outnumbered. We're unarmed. Even if we make it to the Zephyr, there's a fleet of ships waiting to blast us into oblivion. This is the end of the road. You followed me for a year across the galaxy. I never would have made it here without you, but I won't keep putting you in danger. Thank you. Now go home.
No. Simmons, I, I can't leave you.
You have to. Whatever happens, at least I'll be with Fitz. We'll have each other.
[Simmons has reverted to her seven-year-old self and fled to her childhood bedroom]
[Observing the posters on the wall] Well, you're just destined for the sciences, aren't you?
I'm going to be a biologist and study cuttlefish. They can change their skin colors with chromatophores.
You're gonna do a lot more than that. Do you know who I am? [She nods] Well, then, you know that I'm a friend, so why did you run away? Why did you come here?
This is where I learn the stars, memorize my chem tables, and work out problems in my head.
What kind of problems in your head?
All kinds. My dreams float up to the stars, and my troubles are locked up tight in the music box.
Well, that's a nice little system. Is there anything troubling you now?
[Holds a book] This one! Read me this one.
Okay. You want me to read you a bedtime story? You know, I-I think I should probably take you out of here, because this might be the madness that she [Atarah] was talking...
[Screams] Daddy! The strange man in my room wants to abduct me and take me...
Shh-shh Shut your Shhhhhh. I'll read you the story. For the love of Pete...
It's about a boy and his imaginary friend that are lost in the stars.
Is it, now? What's it called? [Sees that it is the Darkhold] That's not a good book. That's a bad book, bad story, very poorly written.
[Simmons is still her seven-year-old self. Fitz has figured out that they are in a mind prison.]
You are being, without a doubt, the supreme, absolute worst!
You are a butt face!
Oh, that's charming. What is that? What are you hiding? Give it!
No! It's our escape plan.
Give it now! What is it?
Mononitrotoluene.
MNT? As in a precursor to TNT? This is a representational space. There's nothing to blow a hole in here, except the side of your brain. You're better off cooking up some cocaine or unicorn tears.
I don't have a memory of either of those things to pull from. My supplies were limited.
How are you with spectral theory or eigenvalues?
I'm still learning integrals.
Oh, are you? Well, it looks like someone's only gonna have two PhDs by the time they're 17, doesn't it?
Time travel is science fiction, stupid!
Oh, grow up! You're the one that said it was possible, you little... Mm. Grow up. Just literally grow up. This is an adult problem. You and I are supposed to be unstoppable. Well, if you won't help me, I could turn to somebody else, couldn't I? I could imagine anything I want in this room. I could boot up an LMD. Maybe AIDA. She could really handle the computations...
[Back to being an adult] Don't you dare.
