Coulson: Previously on
marvel's agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

I need to cauterise his wound.

(Screams)

It's a transmission.

It's coming from the surface of the earth.

So, there's someone out there.

Coulson: We need to find them.

Well, you have carved out a little life

for yourself on this grim little rock,
haven't you?

Simmons: No, Abby, you can't!

- You sold her.
- Silence.

This is what I do.

My friend's life is on the line,
so I'll figure something out.

(Sighs)

- You were right.
- I told you she'd find her way down here.

Kasius: I rescued humanity.

Did you know that?

What you may not know is how much
I've sacrificed to do it.

Before I arrived, this place was nothing
but a wreckage...

The rotted shell of a dead organism.

But I saw it for what it could be.

I had vision. And now, thanks to you...

That vision has finally come to fruition.

You've taken my blood,

what more do you need from me?

Despite all I did for these humans,

I found them clinging to their gods,
their fairy tales...

One of which was... quake.

The old ones, rest their souls...

They used to tell the story
of how S.H.I.E.L.D. would return one day

from the past to save them.

- Now here you are.
- Not my choice.

Yet you show up at the exact same time
as another human,

with no marks on her wrist
and a skill set beyond her station.

Jemma.

I know you're trying to say something
but I'm just not sure what.

Perhaps you are more than a fairytale.

How many of you are here?

No one else.

I want to believe you, Daisy.
May I call you Daisy?

It's a lot less formal
than destroyer of worlds.

You see, I have my own interpretation
of the fairy tale.

I think you're here to help me.

- That seems unlikely.
- Does it?

Word of your presence has piqued
much interest.

In fact, bidders are on their way.

And with the price I'll fetch for you...

I'll finally have the means to leave
this horrendous place once and for all.

What makes you think I'd go along
with that?

Because, of course...

Your friend's face is so beautiful.

Don't you want to make sure it stays
that way?

- (Electricity crackling)
- (Indistinct chatter)

- What are you doing here?
- They shut down all the trawler flights.

No idea why.

So now they even have the pilots working
as crushers, I guess.

That's a little slang I picked up here.

- Crusher, it's when you...
- Phil. I get crusher.

- Anything on Daisy?
- Coulson: Nothing.

Just when we have a chance
of getting answers on the surface,

two of our people go missing.

Mack: Hey.

Anything?

Mack: Been checking the guys
working the docking bays

to see if maybe Daisy hopped
a ship to move between levels,

but I don't know.

I assume she didn't.

(Grunts) Is it time to panic yet?

Yo-yo: Possibly.

I've covered every square inch
of this floor.

No sign of Daisy.

I don't like this.
She could be captured...

- (Electricity crackles)
- (Grunting)

You're not here to stand around
and gossip.

We were all talking. Why me?

'Cause you're bigger. (Chuckles)

Makes it funnier.

Keep working!

Big man downstairs is entertaining.

An intergalactic auction means...

That we have to provide more iron
for kasius to sell off.

So, we are working triple shifts.

Hey, I answer to the fat cat blues,
same as you.

Only I have to go and explain to them
why we are not meeting our quotas.

So, make sure we do by the end of today.

Except you.

You're with me.

Guy's name is gunner. Thinks he's
a tough guy.

Owes me a lot of tokens.
I need you to rough him up.

Oh... you need me to do what?

Beat his ass.

Look, I got it on good authority
that gunner is waiting on a package

from level 35...

Now, that is a high-security,
kreepers-only technology floor.

He's in debt to me and getting tech
from the blues? I don't like that.

But you already got enforcers.
Why do you need me to do it?

Well, I had zev, he was a snake.
Now he's roach food.

Have you looked in a mirror?

You're a beast.

Go be one.

(Grunting)

(Grunts)

Ben: Excuse me.

They grow it.

Uh... what?

You're wondering
where the meat comes from.

There's some kind of lab
where they grow it or something.

Was that just a lucky guess
or did you just...

Read my thoughts?

I heard them, really.

That's what I got after terrigenesis.

You're inhuman.
That's how you anticipated the moves,

which is not cool, by the way,
reading people's minds without permission.

I hear what I hear.

Believe me, it's kind of a relief
when they turn it off.

(Device beeps)

- And there we go.
- All right. Everyone out.

Not you.

No, you're something special.

You get a private viewing.

Yeah, I don't think you have a choice,
mack,

if we want to keep grill off our backs.

- So, we gotta go rough up this guy gunner.
- Yeah.

Makes as much sense as anything else
in this place.

Maybe you and yo-yo can just talk to him,
avoid the all-out assault.

Both of us?

I'm already missing two agents.
I'm going with mack's philosophy

- that we stick together here.
- Finally.

As long as you're back before grill,
we should be fine.

And it gets us an opportunity.

- Yeah. That's you and me.
- Yup.

Grill just tipped us off to level 35,
kree technology?

- We have to check that out.
- We have no weapons, no intel.

Well, I'm hoping level 35 gets us an edge,

or at least something
that'll help us survive on the surface

till we can find Virgil's radio pal.

- You got access to a secure floor?
- No, but...

I think I know a guy.

So, you're making them fight?
Inhumans?

That's what this place is for,
fighting for entertainment?

Not just for entertainment.

For profit.

Kasius's profit.

What does he want?

A demonstration of your skills.

(Device beeps)

Maybe I don't feel like performing
on cue today.

Unless you've got peanuts.

- Maybe you should get in the mood. Fast.
- (Door sliding)

For your friend.

Okay. Fine.

(Grunts)

That wasn't what I meant.

(Device beeps)

I had no idea that you had
the destroyer of worlds in your stable.

Oh, did I forget to mention it?

Word's gotten around and a host of traders
are on their way presently.

Well, perhaps I can make a pre-emptive bid
for her now.

Oh, basha, that would be lovely.

I can make a far greater offer than any...

Unfortunately, discussion of price
will take place over dinner.

And since you so prefer dining
on your own ship,

I fear that takes you out
of the running...

Ah, well. Safe journey home to your...

What was the colourful phrase you used?

"Grim little rock."

She seems nice.

I suppose you're here for payment.

Well, I did bring you quake.

So you did.

Here.

- Is that rhodium?
- You have an eye for high-value metals.

This'll be worth more
than all your credits upstairs.

Yes, it will.

I want to thank you for bringing her
to me.

But sinara is concerned
about the prophecy...

That others from the past
might have come, as well.

- Guess that means you are, too.
- Prophecies are hard to decipher.

Could be two people...

Could be 20.

Well, maybe the prophecy wouldn't be such
a mystery

if you didn't kill everyone
that knew anything about it.

Yes.

Life is full of regrets.

Still...

How can I help?

Should you come across
any additional time travellers

or anyone who helped them,
I'd be grateful...

And generous.

Let me see what I can find for you.

Daisy: Hey.

So, you're telling me you don't see
the whole picture?

I'd fill you in but I feel like
you already know.

- I've read tye's mind, of course I know.
- The ceremonies.

They are making inhumans fight each other.

And people bid on them. Are you okay
with this?

- I've come to terms with it.
- And everyone else?

The others don't know.

- They can never know.
- Wait, what?

- They have the right to fight back.
- But we have to.

- You can't just sit here and do nothing.
- You can't tell them. You can't tell

- anyone. If the others find out...
- You've gotta...

They can't do what has to be done.

We do this,

demonstrate our powers and go
with whomever buys us

because our families get compensated
once we're gone.

You mean they get paid
to sell you.

I mean they have a better shot
at survival.

- Survival is everything.
- This is insane.

This is life.

(Clears throat)

Othennise, our families could pay
the price.

You have people you care about,
I heard that much.

If you care about them,
I suggest you play the game.

And if they pit us against each other,
I suggest you try to win.

'Cause I will.

(Indistinct chatter)

- Hey. Come on.
- Coulson: Sorry.

- We need to talk.
- Say, "deke. How you doing?

You look really good. Can we have a word?"
See? It's not that hard.

I was coming to find you guys, anyway,

'cause I haven't seen you
in a little while.

I was hoping Daisy was with you.
Last we heard, she was looking for you.

Yeah, she found me. I was just with her
a couple hours ago.

And it's... it's all good. I...
I helped her onto a lower medical floor.

- It's where we think your other friend is.
- She never came back or checked in.

She said something
about no further contact, spy stuff.

- How'd she put it? "Silent mode"?
- May: Going dark.

Yeah, that. And I told her
that you'd wonder and she said, quote,

"get out of my way, this is what I do.
My friend's life is on the line.

I'll figure something out."

- Yeah, that sounds like Daisy.
- Sorry, I don't have her, I wish I did.

It's all right, we came for you.

What do you know about level 35?

Well, every few floors,
there's a secure kree level.

Level four is holding, that's...

Where I met you fine folks.
And then level 17 is engineering.

But I've never seen 35. Why?

We're hoping to find some kree technology.
Anything that'll help us.

We need to investigate the surface.

The surface. Yeah, why not?

No, yeah. It'll take too long to get
to the centre of the sun.

I know, it's an unconventional plan.

Deke: What is actually wrong
with you people

that you keep going places you
are not supposed to be going?

- Are you all very suicidal?
- We have reasons.

- Not good ones.
- We do now.

Virgil's time in the trawler,

he was communicating with the surface.

Man: (On radio)
Virgil, come in. Do you read?

We haven't heard from you in three days,
please respond, Virgil.

Have you secured the delegation?

- (Button clicks)
- Those people are all dead.

- Kasius thinks they're all dead.
- I know.

- I need to go get a few things.
- Oh, so now you're interested?

Those people up there...

If we can find them,
that's in everyone's best interest.

(Indistinct chatter)

- Yo-yo: Is that gunner?
- That's gunner.

Try to walk casual.

If you can see me,
that's me walking casual.

That's fair. But try not to do
anything rash.

Do you want to talk about it
or make not very subtle comments all day?

Spit it out, turtle man.

So, we're beating people up now?
It's bad enough what we've already done.

Are you talking
about grill's right-hand man?

- I did it to save lives, your life.
- Yeah. Now the guy's dead.

And I'm sorry about that
but I choose you over him every time.

Yeah.

I just don't want us
losing ourselves here.

Look what happened to Fitz
in the framework.

- This is different.
- Yeah, I know it's different.

- This place is real.
- Yeah, exactly.

Real danger, real violence.
We protect ourselves to survive.

- Yeah. Do we have to hurt people to do it?
- If we're being practical, maybe.

Yeah, well...

I was raised do unto others
as you would have them do to you.

Yeah, you were raised in the suburbs.

I didn't grow up in naperville. I grew up
in potosl, a cityjust like this.

- It operates on fear.
- Yeah.

- And you hated it there.
- Yeah, but I learned from it.

We don't have to hurt him to scare him.

Look at that bastard.

He owes money, and he's still trying
to get more.

Maybe he does need a shake-up.

And don't worry, we won't lose ourselves.
I promise.

(Indistinct chatter)

Jemma...

I'm thirsty.

(Glass shatters)

(Grunts)

The truth is not a relative concept,
is it?

A subjective conceit?

Then imagine my disappointment
to discover you and Jemma did,

in fact, hide the truth.

Sinara said, Jemma had a friend
who assisted in saving a life,

seemed to know her.

- Seemed to understand.
- I would ask Simmons,

but she can't hear me
for some twisted reason.

- I already told you.
- Please.

I can't abide untruths.

And it's unnecessary when we can get
to the facts ever so quickly.

(Footsteps approaching)

Of course, there's no way I can tell
for certain if you're being honest.

- But he can.
- (Device beeps)

I already told you. It's just me
and Simmons.

Jemma, who was the woman helping you
when you helped Reese?

I have no idea.

There were lots of people in the exchange
that day. I don't know who they all were.

They're telling the truth.

Both of them.

(Exhales)

Did you come through time together...

- Or separately?
- I don't understand why that matters.

Because the prophecy spoke
of S.H.I.E.L.D.

(Inaudible)

And if they did,
you may not even be aware of it.

We came through together.

No one else, just us.

Very well.

Tell us that miraculous story.

Spare no detail.

We were alone.

(Inaudible)

Daisy: We lost one, Jeffrey mace.

Fitz killed him. One of our team members.
Fitz was Jemma's... they were in love.

And he couldn't handle it.

Honestly, none of us really could.
He was gonna leave S.H.I.E.L.D.

So, I took Jemma out to talk alone.

We went to a diner, we were just talking,

when these guys came in
and they grabbed us.

They knocked us out and boom...

We ended up here.

Jemma, now you tell me the same story...

How you two ended up here. And, Jemma...

It had best be a story in perfect accord
with hers.

I was so distraught after our last mission
in the framework,

when Fitz killed mace and Fitz was worse.

He decided to leave S.H.I.E.L.D.

It seemed our team was breaking up.

Daisy took me to a diner to talk alone.

To make me feel better, I guess.

And then these men came.

They grabbed us, they knocked us out...

And we ended up here.

Good, then.

(Device beeps)

I share your concern...
But we have preparations to make.

And remember...

You're not the only one working on this.

I imagine it's not as simple
as taking the elevator down to 35.

No, we can't access it but...

I can get us in below it, find my way in.

I'll call the elevator
from level 35 itself.

(Beeps)

- (Thud)
- You guys hang tight.

- You trust him?
- You know me better than that.

Welcome to level 35.

Yeah, well, hold the applause.

Hi.

- What the hell just happened?
- I covered for you.

- Yeah, but how?
- My inhuman power...

It isn'tjust reading minds.

You can let other people read your mind,
too.

- So, you told Simmons what I said.
- Yeah.

They don't know I can do that.

What about playing the game?

Daisy, listen, it wasn'tjust your minds
in there.

That was as close as I've ever been
to kasius.

My first chance to read his.

Right.

So, what did you see?

Shame.

He hates this place.

When his gala is all done,
kasius isn'tjust leaving...

- He wants it all erased.
- He's gonna destroy the station?

Along with everyone on it.
My family. Every family.

But I could also see how powerful
he thinks you are...

- And how powerful you know you are.
- Good.

Maybe it's time we change the rules
on his game.

- Yo-yo: Hey.
- Who... what are you...

- Grill sent us. He wants his money.
- (Door closing)

Yeah? Screw grill. I told him
he'd get his money and he will.

- He thinks you're gonna scare me?
- I should.

Because if I don't, big man here will.

What is this place?

Lab, maybe R&D.

R&D. That works.

Tell grill to relax.

I'm putting it together. No one wants
any trouble.

Good. Then don't cause any,

'cause I don't know what my friend
will do.

Your friend just needs to calm down.

Take it easy, take it easy.

Now, this package you're waiting for...

You know we can make it disappear.

What did you just say?

If this place is all science

then there's got to be something here
we can use.

We just need to find it.

(Screeching in distance)

Roaches?

No.

I'm saying if you try anything,

it wouldn't be hard for us
to go after this package of yours

- and make it so it never gets to you.
- Whoa, whoa. You can't do that.

- Hey, things go missing all the time.
- I swear, I'll kill you.

Wait, what is that?

It's the package meant for gunner,
isn't it?

Probably. There's been a lot
of vacancies lately.

Must be time to start filling them.

What kind of man makes a threat so low?

You're sick.

Just pay grill and no one will take
your stuff.

- Mack.
- But if you don't, we'll take that package

- and we'll throw it in the crushing mill.
- Mack, look.

Who threatens a child?

Who would threaten to tear a baby away
from someone when the chance is so rare?

- Sorry, I didn't know. I didn't see.
- Kids are scarce here...

Because of people like you
who only understand violence and death!

I hope you never get the privilege.

You'd mess it up, anyway.

People like you don't deserve a child.

- (Grunts)
- Mack! Mack, no!

Mack! Mack, no!

Mack! Mack!

- (Mack breath es heavily)
- See?

(Coughs)

They're using new-borns as a commodity?

How do you think things are done
around here?

It's the only way anyone can have kids.

I'm sorry...

"The only way"?

People don't get pregnant anymore.

Super. And the vibe goes full-dystopian.

What did they do, sterilise
the whole population?

We think they do it through the food
so they can decide who has children.

- How long?
- They've always tried to control it.

I was one of the last ones
that was born the old-fashioned way,

until kasius decided that it was easiest
to just...

Create the children themselves.
But why?

Are they trying to diversify
the human population?

Kasius doesn't care about humans.

He just wants to increase
the genetic chances they turn.

To inhumans.
They're much more valuable that way.

Valuable? Valuable to whom?

Deke, what is he auctioning off
down there?

You think he's selling rocks?

The whole process is pretty upsetting,
so we try not to think about the details.

Phil.

- I found something.
- What is it?

Him.

Deke: Okay. Ow!

May?

The lab got a new sample
they're supposed to use...

For inhuman genes.

Daisy.

And they've been holding her
since yesterday...

Is that what that thing says?
Because if you...

You said you were helping her
this morning.

Why would you lie about Daisy
unless you sold her out?

Okay, well, this is probably the part
where I should explain.

No. This is the part
where may breaks your face.

You explaining, kind of secondary.

- Okay, you're mad. I get that.
- Are they using her for breeding?

It seems that way
but that's not why kasius wanted her.

- So you did sell her out.
- Yes,

- but it's mo...
- (Door opening)

Hey, fellas, we actually... we were
just got a little bit turned around.

Uh... is this level 35?
We were actually looking...

Oh, okay, we're fighting.

(Grunting)

(Thuds)

(Grunts)

(Metal clinking)

(Panting)

(Door opening)

More kreepers.

Phil, you take deke upstairs,
make him talk. I'll hold them off.

I'm not leaving you here alone.

- Go.
- May, your leg.

- You're still not a 100 percent.
- I got this. Go.

(Grunts)

(Axe clanking)

(May grunts)

(Both grunting)

(Screams)

(Grunts)

Okay.

The bleeding's stopped, how's it feel?

- It's fine.
- Good. Not too tight?

- No, snug. Not too tight.
- Okay. In that case...

Oh. I really need you people
to stop doing that.

- Where's Daisy?
- Look,

- I had to do that.
- Oh, you had to?

Yeah, I had to. People had died,

and kasius wouldn't have hesitated
to kill hundreds more,

and Daisy didn't even seem
to care at all.

So, trust me.

- It's safer with her out of the mix.
- I don't trust you.

Well, I did what needed to be done.

Oh, please. That wasn't the first time
you went for a payday.

You weren't out to save lives.
You made a profit.

- The two aren't mutually exclusive.
- So don't pretend your motives were pure.

Oh, please. There's so much
you don't even know.

And now you're doing it again, aren't you?

You don't want to help those people
on the surface.

- You want to turn them over to kasius...
- You don't know me, man!

I was nine, okay?

When my mother got dragged away
and murdered.

Kasius got rid of all the elders,
all the smart people

and she was one of them.

And after she was gone, my dad took up
the cause.

He carried the torch for her.

And as I got older, I begged him not to.

I said that they were gonna get him, too
and I was right.

He got sent to the roaches, just like
the rest of them.

That's why it was pretty strange
to hear his voice.

That was your father?

If he's alive up there,
I don't just want you to succeed,

I need to be there when you do.

Oh, that's a good story.

But... stories are what you do,
so excuse me if I don't buy it just yet.

You wanna help us, you're gonna need
to prove it.

- How?
- Let's start with the payment

you got for Daisy.

Someone else needs that more than you do.

(Sighs) That's more painful
than getting stabbed.

That buy me some trust?

It buys you some time.

But for now...

I think we're safer with you out
of the mix.

Hey, wait, wait, wait!

Wait!

Hey! Hey!

- Any word from may?
- Deke: Come on! Hey!

- (Banging on door)
- No.

- Deke: Hey!
- (Banging continues)

Wanna be careful standing around.
Grill's gonna be back soon.

Are you ready to talk yet?

There's nothing to say.

I mean, there I was, telling you not
to lose yourself.

Who doesn't love irony, right?

Mack, gunner hit your weak spots.
Of course, you reacted.

I just couldn't listen to him.

(Scoffs) He doesn't know what you've lost,

- or how great of a dad you are.
- But what if I'm not?

- Not what?
- A great dad.

- Mack, please. Stop it.
- No.

When hope died, the real hope...

She never came home and still
it took me weeks

before I could walk into her nursery
and take everything away but I did it...

Eventually.

It must have been hard.

But this hope...

E... my hop

in the framework...

She, uh...

This is harder.

I miss her so much.

(Exhales)

It's so much worse.

Imagine that.

I survived the pain of losing
my real child,

but I can't get over the pain of losing
a fake one.

So what kind of a father
does that make me?

Maybe gunner was right about me.

- Maybe, I really am already lost. I...
- Hey.

Hope might not have been real,
but your love for her was.

And that makes you a great father
and a good man.

We'll get through this place intact...

Together.

Okay?

Grill: Hey, monster mack!

(Chuckles)

Gunnerjust paid me off.

Whoa! Seems like you're twice the beast
I thought you were.

Glad to have you, mack.

You fit right in.

(Indistinct chatter)

And you've dealt with our newest guest?

(Bell chimes)

Your gracious host kasius would like
to say a few words of welcome.

It is truly my pleasure to invite you
to this wondrous place,

the last bastion of a species,

a place I've been proud to call home
for so long.

You are the first to arrive
for an exhibition of unbridled powers...

To excite the senses.

All leading up to our main event.

(Chains clinking)

One powerful inhuman,
long thought gone,

now here to enrich
one lucky patron's life.

Quake...

Destroyer of worlds.

Someone, maybe someone in this room
right now...

Will win this prize.

(Liquid pouring)

Her power...

Will be your power.

So...

Are there any requests as we begin?

Man: Forget your exhibition.

She's the destroyer of worlds.

(Breath es sharply)

She should fight to the death.
