1
00:00:11,887 --> 00:00:14,060


2
00:00:20,979 --> 00:00:22,697


3
00:00:36,411 --> 00:00:37,788
Big boy,
this is little boy.

4
00:00:37,871 --> 00:00:40,044
How'd things go
down at the chicken coop?

5
00:00:40,791 --> 00:00:42,464
Weigh station inspector needs to learn

6
00:00:42,584 --> 00:00:44,211
some adult words and a bit of hygiene,

7
00:00:44,294 --> 00:00:46,092
but he waved us through.

8
00:00:46,171 --> 00:00:47,798
The cargo is secure.

9
00:00:48,173 --> 00:00:49,846
Looks like a clean shot from here.

10
00:00:50,133 --> 00:00:52,932
Roger that. Little girl
will take point on your front door.

11
00:00:53,095 --> 00:00:55,518
See you at
the drop stop, Mack. I'm clear.

12
00:01:12,197 --> 00:01:13,494


13
00:01:13,699 --> 00:01:14,746
Son of a bitch.

14
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:21,127
You see that?

15
00:01:21,206 --> 00:01:23,425
Little girl is down.
Escort Two is down.

16
00:01:23,584 --> 00:01:25,632
I know, Sherlock! What the hell hit us?

17
00:01:25,836 --> 00:01:26,962


18
00:01:32,843 --> 00:01:34,516
We need to go to alt two, alt two.

19
00:01:35,762 --> 00:01:38,265
Nothing over
our shoulder. Back door is clear.

20
00:01:38,390 --> 00:01:40,142
Protect the cargo at all costs.

21
00:01:40,517 --> 00:01:42,611
S.H.I.E.L.D. region C.T.,
this is Agent Mack.

22
00:01:42,686 --> 00:01:45,530
We are under attack
from an unseen I-don't-know-what.

23
00:01:46,690 --> 00:01:48,738
Agent Mack,
advise nature of threat. Over.

24
00:01:48,859 --> 00:01:50,827
What in the holy name of...

25
00:01:58,702 --> 00:02:00,704
S.H.I.E.L.D. region C.T...

26
00:02:01,747 --> 00:02:03,374
Oh, hell, I can't explain.

27
00:02:04,374 --> 00:02:06,047
Oh, no!

28
00:02:06,710 --> 00:02:08,053


29
00:02:10,047 --> 00:02:11,549
Agent Mack, come in.

30
00:02:11,673 --> 00:02:12,765


31
00:02:12,841 --> 00:02:14,434
Are you there, Agent Mack?

32
00:02:47,209 --> 00:02:48,256
Are we there yet?

33
00:02:55,801 --> 00:02:57,428


34
00:03:01,765 --> 00:03:02,812
You know you're late.

35
00:03:03,225 --> 00:03:05,444
I'm tired. From the morning's workout.

36
00:03:05,936 --> 00:03:08,655
I thought I was joining
S.H.I.E.L.D., not 24-Hour Fitness.

37
00:03:09,064 --> 00:03:11,943
It's called relative strength
training. Starting with the basics.

38
00:03:12,442 --> 00:03:15,616
And next time, you do 15 pushups
for every minute you're late.

39
00:03:16,321 --> 00:03:19,495
Fine, Mister Fun-Machine.
Better than pull-ups.

40
00:03:19,783 --> 00:03:22,286
I don't ever wanna do
another pull-up again.

41
00:03:22,744 --> 00:03:25,998
You find yourself hanging off the edge
of a building 20 stories up,

42
00:03:26,123 --> 00:03:27,170
you're gonna wanna do at least one.

43
00:03:28,792 --> 00:03:31,261
Stand here. Jab, cross. Like this.

44
00:03:33,505 --> 00:03:34,597
Ten minutes.

45
00:03:35,132 --> 00:03:36,475
You know the hardest
part about boxing?

46
00:03:36,925 --> 00:03:37,972
Getting punched in the face?

47
00:03:38,468 --> 00:03:39,765
Keeping your hands up.

48
00:03:40,262 --> 00:03:41,309
Why do I even have to do this?

49
00:03:41,430 --> 00:03:43,524
I'm sure Fitz-Simmons'
supervising officer

50
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,439
didn't make them do this muscle stuff.

51
00:03:47,602 --> 00:03:50,981
You said you wanted
to be a field agent like Coulson.

52
00:03:51,106 --> 00:03:53,200
Well, if you'd like to switch disciplines...

53
00:03:53,608 --> 00:03:55,235
Hey, Simmons, what did your S.O.

54
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:56,987
give you guys for morning drills?

55
00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:58,537
Oh, atomistic attribute drills.

56
00:03:59,197 --> 00:04:02,041
Yeah, we'd name
the mechanical, chemical, thermal...

57
00:04:02,159 --> 00:04:03,331
Electrical properties of materials...

58
00:04:03,452 --> 00:04:05,705
Okay, okay, they made your point.

59
00:04:07,622 --> 00:04:10,171
There will come a moment
when you have to commit to this, or bail.

60
00:04:11,376 --> 00:04:14,129
Every field agent
has a defining moment. Ask Coulson.

61
00:04:15,297 --> 00:04:16,514
When you have to make the hard call.

62
00:04:16,631 --> 00:04:18,599
To either dedicate yourself to this,

63
00:04:18,717 --> 00:04:20,685
or to curl up in a ball and run.

64
00:04:21,136 --> 00:04:23,639
How can you run
if you're curled up in a ball?

65
00:04:24,055 --> 00:04:28,185
It's my job as your S.O.
to make sure you don't die before then.

66
00:04:28,518 --> 00:04:29,690
Come on.

67
00:04:30,312 --> 00:04:32,030
So what was yours, Agent Ward?

68
00:04:32,314 --> 00:04:33,361
Ten minutes.

69
00:04:33,523 --> 00:04:34,866
Your defining moment.

70
00:04:36,401 --> 00:04:37,493


71
00:04:37,569 --> 00:04:39,321
Come on, tell me. I wanna know.

72
00:04:39,696 --> 00:04:42,791
I could get Coulson
to give you some of that truth serum.

73
00:04:42,866 --> 00:04:45,369
You could spill
your little heart out to me again.

74
00:04:46,036 --> 00:04:51,167
You mean my Level 1 overshare that
miraculously got you to cooperate?

75
00:04:52,542 --> 00:04:54,044
I hate to tell you this, rookie,

76
00:04:54,211 --> 00:04:55,713
but we don't have a truth serum.

77
00:04:56,087 --> 00:04:58,010
Changing course.
Briefing in three.

78
00:04:58,089 --> 00:05:00,012
Ah. Looks like we're on the move.

79
00:05:00,801 --> 00:05:01,927


80
00:05:02,427 --> 00:05:04,521
S.H.I.E.L.D. 616 with new orders,

81
00:05:04,638 --> 00:05:06,732
set for Colorado airfield, north.

82
00:05:09,851 --> 00:05:11,694
A few minutes ago
a S.H.I.E.L.D. transport was attacked

83
00:05:11,770 --> 00:05:13,943
while carrying
a priority red protected asset,

84
00:05:14,064 --> 00:05:15,691
off Route 76 near Sterling.

85
00:05:15,774 --> 00:05:17,367
Priority red?

86
00:05:17,692 --> 00:05:19,035
The asset was Canadian physicist

87
00:05:19,110 --> 00:05:21,454
Dr. Franklin Hall, known for his work...

88
00:05:21,530 --> 00:05:23,077
- Oh, no, not Frank.
-Doctor Hall?

89
00:05:23,198 --> 00:05:25,701
He was our chemical kinetics
advisor our second year.

90
00:05:25,909 --> 00:05:28,879
Yeah, he's so enthusiastic
about science, we just adored him.

91
00:05:28,954 --> 00:05:30,251
We can rescue him, can't we?

92
00:05:30,413 --> 00:05:31,915
He's one of ours. We're gonna try.

93
00:05:32,082 --> 00:05:33,083
And the attackers?

94
00:05:33,208 --> 00:05:34,425
Invisible.

95
00:05:35,043 --> 00:05:38,468
Wait, invisible?  Cool.

96
00:05:41,091 --> 00:05:42,593
But terrible.

97
00:05:44,261 --> 00:05:45,763
Doctor Hall was an asset?

98
00:05:46,012 --> 00:05:47,355
One of
a few select scientists

99
00:05:47,430 --> 00:05:49,057
S.H.I.E.L.D. has been protecting.

100
00:05:49,140 --> 00:05:50,767
People our enemies
would love to get their hands on.

101
00:05:51,142 --> 00:05:53,236
We keep them hidden,
keep them on the move.

102
00:05:53,478 --> 00:05:55,606
Which is why Fitz and I
were so lucky to have him.

103
00:05:55,730 --> 00:05:56,777
We don't have him anymore.

104
00:05:56,898 --> 00:05:58,571
And what does priority red mean?

105
00:05:58,650 --> 00:06:00,197
It means security should've been...

106
00:06:00,277 --> 00:06:01,529


107
00:06:01,903 --> 00:06:03,120
heavy.

108
00:06:03,738 --> 00:06:07,413
It was pretty damn scary.
And I don't spook easily, boss.

109
00:06:08,076 --> 00:06:09,794
Nothing in the air? From above?

110
00:06:09,995 --> 00:06:11,588
And nothing over our shoulder.

111
00:06:11,663 --> 00:06:14,633
But what's scary is, they knew our route.

112
00:06:15,125 --> 00:06:16,627
They were waiting for us.

113
00:06:16,835 --> 00:06:17,961
Are you saying they were working

114
00:06:18,086 --> 00:06:19,178
with somebody inside S.H.I.E.L.D.?

115
00:06:20,463 --> 00:06:23,137
Sorry to say, it had to be.

116
00:06:24,092 --> 00:06:25,969
Fitz, what am I seeing here?

117
00:06:26,469 --> 00:06:31,316
Well, I'm not wearing
the full-spectrum goggles I designed,

118
00:06:32,517 --> 00:06:33,609
so,  no clue.

119
00:06:35,312 --> 00:06:36,359
Let me have a look.

120
00:06:36,646 --> 00:06:40,116
No, whoa, whoa, whoa, wait!
Don't move. Wait a second.

121
00:06:41,568 --> 00:06:42,945


122
00:06:43,153 --> 00:06:44,450
What the hell?

123
00:06:44,863 --> 00:06:49,869
I think the eiectro-static
field scanner activated some... thing.

124
00:06:50,619 --> 00:06:52,337


125
00:06:53,496 --> 00:06:56,670
Okay. Can we deactivate it? Now?

126
00:06:56,833 --> 00:06:58,676
- You have to increase the density!
-I tried, Fitz!

127
00:06:58,835 --> 00:07:00,303


128
00:07:00,378 --> 00:07:01,925
Fitz!

129
00:07:02,005 --> 00:07:03,097


130
00:07:03,173 --> 00:07:04,345
Whoa!

131
00:07:12,349 --> 00:07:14,522
That did all this.

132
00:07:17,145 --> 00:07:18,192
What is that?

133
00:07:22,025 --> 00:07:23,993
Something big.

134
00:07:34,037 --> 00:07:35,960
Either someone
cracked our comm system,

135
00:07:36,039 --> 00:07:38,883
or Doctor Hall's movements leaked
from inside S.H.I.E.L.D.

136
00:07:39,167 --> 00:07:40,510
You really think we have a mole?

137
00:07:40,669 --> 00:07:43,092
I think you should go through the
communication logs. Rule it out.

138
00:07:43,588 --> 00:07:45,716
We'll work the tractor tread
that we found on the scene.

139
00:07:45,882 --> 00:07:47,555
I can do that. Instead of pull-ups.

140
00:07:47,676 --> 00:07:49,053
I can upload
the image of the tread pattern

141
00:07:49,177 --> 00:07:50,474
and check to see if there's any...

142
00:07:50,553 --> 00:07:51,725
Already done.

143
00:07:52,347 --> 00:07:53,849
Matched it to a 2010 model.

144
00:07:53,932 --> 00:07:56,276
Found a list of purchasers
within 500-mile radius,

145
00:07:56,518 --> 00:07:58,520
narrowed down to
those with priors, financial troubles,

146
00:07:58,603 --> 00:07:59,900
or a propensity for risk-taking.

147
00:08:00,563 --> 00:08:01,610
Three suspects.

148
00:08:01,856 --> 00:08:03,028
Who may have sold their construction

149
00:08:03,108 --> 00:08:05,452
equipment to the kidnappers. We'll ask.

150
00:08:08,113 --> 00:08:09,740
Hey. So, Ward said a funny thing.

151
00:08:10,073 --> 00:08:12,622
He said that you guys
don't have a truth serum.

152
00:08:13,118 --> 00:08:14,791
Did he? Ward said that?

153
00:08:15,245 --> 00:08:17,213
- Yeah.
-interesting.

154
00:08:17,539 --> 00:08:19,758
Yeah. Hey, wait, but... I...

155
00:08:19,874 --> 00:08:21,376
Hey.

156
00:08:23,294 --> 00:08:24,591
Do you want me to bench press this?

157
00:08:24,713 --> 00:08:25,760
Read it.

158
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:27,848
Every communication out of HQ since

159
00:08:27,966 --> 00:08:29,934
they decided to transfer Doctor Hall.

160
00:08:32,095 --> 00:08:34,939
Hang in there, Doc.
It's gonna be a while.

161
00:08:43,606 --> 00:08:44,698
Excuse me.

162
00:08:45,275 --> 00:08:46,902
The hell are you?

163
00:08:47,277 --> 00:08:48,870
A concerned citizen,

164
00:08:48,945 --> 00:08:52,700
who happens to be a member of a
giant bureaucratic organization

165
00:08:52,782 --> 00:08:53,874
that's tracking your every move.

166
00:08:54,576 --> 00:08:55,702
I haven't done anything wrong.

167
00:08:55,785 --> 00:08:56,877
Of course not.

168
00:08:57,245 --> 00:09:00,044
But you sold your excavator
to some people who did.

169
00:09:00,123 --> 00:09:03,878
And you're hiding out here until things
cool down because you know it.

170
00:09:04,794 --> 00:09:06,046
I just wanna know who paid you.

171
00:09:08,548 --> 00:09:10,721
They paid me enough
not to answer any questions like that.

172
00:09:11,968 --> 00:09:13,766


173
00:09:14,596 --> 00:09:16,018


174
00:09:16,097 --> 00:09:17,440
Feels like the Old West.

175
00:09:17,974 --> 00:09:20,568
They gave me money
for my equipment, that's all.

176
00:09:20,643 --> 00:09:22,645
I never saw a face
and I never heard a name.

177
00:09:22,896 --> 00:09:25,649
And how did you receive this
money? They write you a check?

178
00:09:31,988 --> 00:09:33,205


179
00:09:35,075 --> 00:09:36,748
Paid you in gold?

180
00:09:36,868 --> 00:09:38,495
Now it really feels like the Old West.

181
00:09:40,830 --> 00:09:43,504
It looks like this because it's a dore bar.

182
00:09:44,334 --> 00:09:47,178
It means it was made
at the mine rather than in a refinery.

183
00:09:47,253 --> 00:09:49,927
It's only about 92% pure.
The cowboy got cheated a bit.

184
00:09:50,090 --> 00:09:52,013
Can you determine the mine
based on the impurities?

185
00:09:52,342 --> 00:09:54,344
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
We've done that already.

186
00:09:54,427 --> 00:09:58,273
It's from the Dacey Mine in Tanzania.

187
00:09:58,681 --> 00:09:59,978
- Hmm.
-Which is owned by...

188
00:10:00,350 --> 00:10:01,522
Quinn Worldwide.

189
00:10:02,102 --> 00:10:05,857
I'm sure you studied the CEO in your
chemical engineering classes,

190
00:10:05,980 --> 00:10:09,109
or saw him on
the cover of Forbes. Ian Quinn.

191
00:10:13,321 --> 00:10:15,619
We can't just pluck
it from the ground like a potato.

192
00:10:15,698 --> 00:10:20,044
It needs to be extracted from the
ore and enriched. I know.

193
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:21,542
You know, tell him this investment

194
00:10:21,663 --> 00:10:23,040
paid for that ridiculous yacht of his,

195
00:10:23,123 --> 00:10:26,548
and that he'll thank me
at the shareholders' meeting.

196
00:10:27,001 --> 00:10:28,378


197
00:10:31,214 --> 00:10:32,807
Why is he tied up?

198
00:10:33,049 --> 00:10:34,175
Quinn.

199
00:10:34,843 --> 00:10:36,686
Does he look like a threat?

200
00:10:39,180 --> 00:10:40,352
I'm sorry about these guys.

201
00:10:45,228 --> 00:10:46,354


202
00:10:48,022 --> 00:10:49,569
Welcome to Malta, Frank.

203
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:51,947
You know, it's one thing to steal

204
00:10:52,068 --> 00:10:53,661
my ideas, Ian, but stealing me?

205
00:10:53,903 --> 00:10:56,326
First of all, I never stole your ideas.

206
00:10:56,406 --> 00:10:58,329
We've always agreed
information should be free.

207
00:10:58,658 --> 00:11:01,332
It's amazing how much money you
made off free information.

208
00:11:01,411 --> 00:11:03,413
And secondly, think of this
as a rescue mission, Frank.

209
00:11:03,538 --> 00:11:06,007
In fact, in a moment
I think you'll be thanking me.

210
00:11:06,749 --> 00:11:08,592
My staff intercepted a communication

211
00:11:08,710 --> 00:11:10,508
about the movement of a certain asset,

212
00:11:10,587 --> 00:11:13,716
and then when I deduced
that asset was you,

213
00:11:14,090 --> 00:11:16,092
I couldn't pass up on the opportunity.

214
00:11:16,217 --> 00:11:19,096
It's a little out of my comfort zone, sure.

215
00:11:21,264 --> 00:11:22,265
Malta.

216
00:11:23,016 --> 00:11:26,441
You're not stupid.
S.H.I.E.L.D. can't come after you here.

217
00:11:26,853 --> 00:11:28,355
Not just S.H.I.E.L.D.

218
00:11:28,438 --> 00:11:31,112
I am now
a naturalized citizen of this fair country.

219
00:11:31,274 --> 00:11:33,368
Stunning beaches, beautiful tax laws,

220
00:11:33,443 --> 00:11:36,117
and a deep-seated hatred
of outside forces telling them what to do.

221
00:11:36,613 --> 00:11:37,956
Sounds like your dating profile.

222
00:11:38,865 --> 00:11:41,618
Right.
I moved my entire operation down here.

223
00:11:41,701 --> 00:11:43,544
Bought the old prime minister's estate.

224
00:11:43,620 --> 00:11:44,963
It's not really my style,

225
00:11:45,079 --> 00:11:47,548
but they had this huge
underground facility, so I figured, hey.

226
00:11:48,374 --> 00:11:50,627
Always been a stubborn bastard.

227
00:11:50,752 --> 00:11:52,299
And now you've finally found a place

228
00:11:52,420 --> 00:11:53,922
where the watchdogs can't touch you.

229
00:11:54,130 --> 00:11:56,053
Not without breaking international law.

230
00:11:58,384 --> 00:12:02,184
Ah! But more importantly,
old friend, they can't touch you.

231
00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:11,488
Recognize the design?

232
00:12:14,275 --> 00:12:15,401
We were barely old enough to drink

233
00:12:15,526 --> 00:12:16,618
when you sketched the blueprint.

234
00:12:16,694 --> 00:12:19,197
That's just a miniature prototype.

235
00:12:19,989 --> 00:12:23,619
A theoretical machine
powered by a theoretical substance.

236
00:12:24,661 --> 00:12:26,504
Frank, you were right.

237
00:12:29,332 --> 00:12:30,379
You found it?

238
00:12:30,667 --> 00:12:31,668
Gravitonium.

239
00:12:31,834 --> 00:12:32,960
It's an extremely rare,

240
00:12:33,044 --> 00:12:34,341
high-atomic numbered element...

241
00:12:34,504 --> 00:12:35,847
...that powers the device.

242
00:12:35,964 --> 00:12:38,592
So extremely rare
that most people didn't believe it existed,

243
00:12:38,675 --> 00:12:40,928
much less the theory
that an isolated positive charge...

244
00:12:41,010 --> 00:12:42,978
Yeah, would turn the flow
from isotropic...

245
00:12:43,054 --> 00:12:44,897
Guys? High school dropout here.

246
00:12:45,014 --> 00:12:46,857
How does the device work again?

247
00:12:47,350 --> 00:12:50,980
Well, gravitonium
distorts gravity fields within itself,

248
00:12:51,062 --> 00:12:53,656
causing an undulating,
amorphous shape.

249
00:12:53,856 --> 00:12:57,156
Which causes these, um,
wiggly bits here.

250
00:12:57,694 --> 00:13:00,618
But when an electric current is applied,

251
00:13:00,697 --> 00:13:04,076
the gravitonium solidifies.

252
00:13:04,367 --> 00:13:08,292
And those gravity fields erupt,

253
00:13:08,371 --> 00:13:10,874
randomly changing
the rules of gravity around it.

254
00:13:11,082 --> 00:13:13,380
Well, so, now you can
imagine what would happen to a big rig

255
00:13:13,543 --> 00:13:16,012
at 100 kilometers per hour.

256
00:13:16,212 --> 00:13:17,839
Or you... Well, you could just remember,

257
00:13:17,922 --> 00:13:19,299
'cause we saw it already, didn't we?

258
00:13:19,382 --> 00:13:20,725
Yeah, and guess which genius

259
00:13:20,842 --> 00:13:23,937
published every theory about
gravitonium, and possible applications?

260
00:13:24,053 --> 00:13:25,054
Years ago.

261
00:13:25,179 --> 00:13:26,897
- Doctor Franklin Hall.
- Correct.

262
00:13:27,056 --> 00:13:29,434
And Dr. Hall attended
the University of Cambridge

263
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:31,232
at the same time as Ian Quinn.

264
00:13:31,769 --> 00:13:33,521
Coulson may be off on this.

265
00:13:33,730 --> 00:13:35,448
Quinn is a notoriously good guy.

266
00:13:35,565 --> 00:13:37,909
His charity endowment's
something like $8 billion.

267
00:13:38,026 --> 00:13:41,451
Yes. With money made from
leeching the Earth of its resources.

268
00:13:41,571 --> 00:13:43,414
Looks like he's dug up another.

269
00:13:43,948 --> 00:13:47,623
Twenty years, 12 mines, six continents.

270
00:13:47,744 --> 00:13:50,088
But, yes, I finally found it.

271
00:13:50,413 --> 00:13:52,916
And now,
we get to play with it.

272
00:13:54,917 --> 00:13:58,262
Do you remember,
in all our talks on Orchard Street,

273
00:13:58,379 --> 00:14:01,974
the part where it's very, very dangerous?

274
00:14:02,592 --> 00:14:03,935
Everything powerful is dangerous.

275
00:14:05,553 --> 00:14:07,601
But I'm not gonna
convince you with more talk.

276
00:14:07,930 --> 00:14:11,776
Talk of 50% shares,
talk of Nobel Prizes. No, not you.

277
00:14:14,729 --> 00:14:17,107
You will just have to see it.

278
00:14:21,069 --> 00:14:23,071
I built the full-size generator,

279
00:14:23,321 --> 00:14:27,076
but I need you to
tell me how to control the gravity fields.

280
00:14:28,409 --> 00:14:30,878
You can complete your life's work.

281
00:14:30,953 --> 00:14:34,127
I plan to do this
with or without you, but I know you.

282
00:14:34,957 --> 00:14:37,176
I know you'd want it done right.

283
00:14:40,338 --> 00:14:42,306
Now's the moment when you thank me.

284
00:14:42,632 --> 00:14:44,680
The man's a prisoner,
and it's up to us to get him out.

285
00:14:45,093 --> 00:14:46,345
We've checked the specs.

286
00:14:46,469 --> 00:14:48,016
There's no way into Quinn's compound

287
00:14:48,137 --> 00:14:49,684
without a large S.H.I.E.L.D. strike force.

288
00:14:49,806 --> 00:14:51,058
Or a man inside.

289
00:14:51,140 --> 00:14:53,643
He's got neodymium laser
fencing surrounding the property.

290
00:14:53,810 --> 00:14:55,437
They'll never
allow a strike force into Malta.

291
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:57,238
Plus, this weekend Quinn Worldwide's

292
00:14:57,355 --> 00:14:59,073
got its annual shareholders' gathering.

293
00:14:59,148 --> 00:15:01,401
We'd risk global outrage. But...

294
00:15:01,484 --> 00:15:02,656
if we go in alone...

295
00:15:02,819 --> 00:15:04,366
S.H.I.E.L.D. can disavow us,
claim ignorance.

296
00:15:04,654 --> 00:15:06,782
Without a man inside,
it's impossible.

297
00:15:06,864 --> 00:15:08,992
Unless you're immune
to pulse laser emissions.

298
00:15:09,158 --> 00:15:10,785
If we had a monkey we could get in.

299
00:15:10,868 --> 00:15:12,211
Oh, Fitz!

300
00:15:12,328 --> 00:15:14,456
If we had a small monkey,
he could slip through the sensors

301
00:15:14,539 --> 00:15:15,916
and disable the fence's power source

302
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:17,462
with his adorable little hands.

303
00:15:17,667 --> 00:15:18,714
I could go in.

304
00:15:18,835 --> 00:15:20,462
Drop me in the hills outside of Valletta.

305
00:15:20,545 --> 00:15:22,923
I'll spend a few weeks
establishing a cover, gathering intel...

306
00:15:23,005 --> 00:15:24,131
Hall doesn't have a few weeks.

307
00:15:24,215 --> 00:15:25,967
And to restate, any agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.

308
00:15:26,050 --> 00:15:27,723
caught on Maltese soil
can be shot to death with bullets.

309
00:15:27,844 --> 00:15:28,845
- Yeah.
-Legally.

310
00:15:28,970 --> 00:15:31,064
Not me. I could go in.

311
00:15:31,180 --> 00:15:32,557
Skye, this is serious.

312
00:15:32,682 --> 00:15:33,854
Wait.

313
00:15:35,351 --> 00:15:36,352
What are you saying?

314
00:15:36,477 --> 00:15:37,774
Well, I'm not an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.,

315
00:15:37,854 --> 00:15:40,073
so I can go in
without breaking all these stupid rules.

316
00:15:40,231 --> 00:15:41,357
International laws.

317
00:15:41,482 --> 00:15:43,530
This isn't something
the Rising Tide can hack, Skye.

318
00:15:43,693 --> 00:15:46,287
Did you hear the deadly lasers
part? Without a brave monkey...

319
00:15:46,362 --> 00:15:48,205
You said you could go in
with a man inside.

320
00:15:48,281 --> 00:15:49,453
And you wanna be that man?

321
00:15:50,199 --> 00:15:52,702
Fitz-Simmons love the guy,
and he needs help.

322
00:15:52,827 --> 00:15:54,704
They could be torturing him. Or worse,

323
00:15:54,829 --> 00:15:56,376
making him do strength training.

324
00:15:56,706 --> 00:15:58,379
But you don't have the background,

325
00:15:58,499 --> 00:16:01,048
or clearance,
or experience with any of this.

326
00:16:01,377 --> 00:16:02,469
I know.

327
00:16:03,212 --> 00:16:05,214
But I've got an invitation.

328
00:16:07,884 --> 00:16:10,057
Well, technically it's an e-vite.

329
00:16:18,644 --> 00:16:21,989
I understand your concern,
but we don't have a lot of options.

330
00:16:22,064 --> 00:16:23,486
Hey, I'm impressed.

331
00:16:23,566 --> 00:16:25,568
She just
wrangled an invitation on her phone

332
00:16:25,693 --> 00:16:28,492
using insider
back channel voodoo. In minutes.

333
00:16:28,571 --> 00:16:32,496
But sending her in with no
training, you're taking a huge risk.

334
00:16:32,575 --> 00:16:33,952
I know Director Fury felt he owed you

335
00:16:34,076 --> 00:16:35,498
after you sacrificed yourself...

336
00:16:35,578 --> 00:16:36,921
And my card collection.

337
00:16:36,996 --> 00:16:40,591
He gave you some autonomy.
But Skye on a covert op?

338
00:16:40,666 --> 00:16:42,543
Are you worried
about her safety or her loyalty?

339
00:16:42,752 --> 00:16:45,722
Both. The Rising Tide
is the reason she got an invite.

340
00:16:45,838 --> 00:16:47,340
Who knows
how many protocols she violated.

341
00:16:47,423 --> 00:16:49,767
That's her job. Ignore protocol,

342
00:16:49,884 --> 00:16:52,228
find connections and back
doors that nobody else can see.

343
00:16:52,595 --> 00:16:54,689
Something else is bothering you.

344
00:16:55,431 --> 00:16:56,557


345
00:16:57,725 --> 00:16:58,942
She's holding back, sir.

346
00:16:59,435 --> 00:17:02,188
She says she wants to be an
agent, but she won't commit.

347
00:17:02,271 --> 00:17:04,114
She doesn't listen, makes jokes.

348
00:17:04,232 --> 00:17:05,449
Were you hard on her?

349
00:17:05,525 --> 00:17:07,948
Sure. I tried playing nice, too.

350
00:17:08,444 --> 00:17:09,616
I need a new strategy.

351
00:17:11,447 --> 00:17:13,040
Try no strategy.

352
00:17:13,616 --> 00:17:16,620
Stop thinking like
an operative, start thinking like a person.

353
00:17:16,702 --> 00:17:18,420
Maybe Skye will let that person help her.

354
00:17:19,038 --> 00:17:20,039
Help her what?

355
00:17:20,122 --> 00:17:22,625
Help her think like an operative.

356
00:17:24,043 --> 00:17:27,138
Now, again, slowly, what's first?

357
00:17:30,299 --> 00:17:31,300
And then?

358
00:17:31,425 --> 00:17:33,143
Then things are moving too quickly.

359
00:17:33,261 --> 00:17:36,231
I'm a proper Southern girl.
You'll make me untidy.

360
00:17:36,556 --> 00:17:38,650
Twist the thumb, palm the barrel.

361
00:17:38,891 --> 00:17:39,983
Ow.

362
00:17:40,059 --> 00:17:43,654
You're gonna die and leave us hanging
out to dry, you know that?

363
00:17:43,729 --> 00:17:45,072
You're going in
with no self-defense skills...

364
00:17:45,147 --> 00:17:46,239
I have a few tricks up my sleeve.

365
00:17:46,482 --> 00:17:48,985
You need muscle memory,
fundamentals,

366
00:17:49,068 --> 00:17:50,069
the tools to turn yourself...

367
00:17:50,152 --> 00:17:51,449
Into a whole bag of tools?

368
00:17:52,154 --> 00:17:53,280
How did you learn computer science

369
00:17:53,406 --> 00:17:54,498
without committing yourself to it?

370
00:17:54,782 --> 00:17:55,829
C.S. comes naturally to me.

371
00:17:55,908 --> 00:17:57,831
I'm sorry
I'm not naturally whatever you are.

372
00:17:59,078 --> 00:18:00,250
You think this came naturally?

373
00:18:01,414 --> 00:18:03,917
I had a brother
who beat the crap out of me.

374
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:05,627
Me and my little brother.

375
00:18:05,918 --> 00:18:09,422
For nothing.
For eating a piece of his birthday cake.

376
00:18:09,505 --> 00:18:14,102
I had to learn to protect us, the way I
am trying to protect you.

377
00:18:17,513 --> 00:18:19,311
That was my moment.

378
00:18:20,182 --> 00:18:21,479
You asked.

379
00:18:24,145 --> 00:18:26,273
Sorry. Didn't mean to push.

380
00:18:28,941 --> 00:18:31,865
But I did manage to take this.

381
00:18:33,529 --> 00:18:35,452
Getting the gun is one thing.

382
00:18:35,531 --> 00:18:38,159
Pulling the trigger, that is another.

383
00:18:39,368 --> 00:18:43,464
Now, again, slowly. What's first?

384
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:46,213
Skye will walk in the front door.

385
00:18:46,292 --> 00:18:49,136
The only external access point to
Quinn's underground facility

386
00:18:49,211 --> 00:18:50,713
is from a beach cove.

387
00:18:50,963 --> 00:18:54,058
A two-man extraction team
could slip in there, but it's not easy.

388
00:18:54,175 --> 00:18:55,472
Fitz-Simmons.

389
00:18:55,676 --> 00:19:00,307
The perimeter is surrounded by
a 20-foot-high neodymium laser grid.

390
00:19:00,389 --> 00:19:01,515
Touch it and you're toast.

391
00:19:01,724 --> 00:19:02,816
Dead toast.

392
00:19:03,059 --> 00:19:05,061
The only way to disable the grid is to

393
00:19:05,227 --> 00:19:07,195
crack the system and trigger a reboot.

394
00:19:07,396 --> 00:19:09,319
This would give the team
three seconds to cross.

395
00:19:09,649 --> 00:19:11,151
Of course, Quinn's too smart to allow

396
00:19:11,275 --> 00:19:12,743
any wireless access on his property.

397
00:19:12,902 --> 00:19:14,154
That's where I come in.

398
00:19:14,236 --> 00:19:16,659
Yes. Working compact.
Holds up under X-ray.

399
00:19:17,198 --> 00:19:19,997
Desert Rose, to match your
complexion. But, oh, what's this?

400
00:19:20,660 --> 00:19:21,832
A readout, okay?

401
00:19:21,911 --> 00:19:24,414
It turns green
if you're in close enough proximity

402
00:19:24,538 --> 00:19:26,586
to a computer to gain wireless access.

403
00:19:26,666 --> 00:19:28,668
And when it does,
you just drop this nearby and walk out.

404
00:19:28,751 --> 00:19:30,924
We'll do the rest. Easy as pie.

405
00:19:31,045 --> 00:19:33,764
Or it will be,
if you stick to the plan.

406
00:19:34,340 --> 00:19:38,265
Got it. Plan. Green. Drop. Walk. Pie.

407
00:19:40,596 --> 00:19:42,519
I don't wanna question your orders, sir.

408
00:19:42,765 --> 00:19:43,937
Good.

409
00:19:44,392 --> 00:19:48,022
But I've already seen far more
combat than I bargained for.

410
00:19:48,104 --> 00:19:50,027
This two-man extraction team?

411
00:19:50,106 --> 00:19:52,700
That's exactly
the kind of action I was hoping to avoid.

412
00:19:52,775 --> 00:19:53,901
That's why you're not on it.

413
00:19:54,944 --> 00:19:57,697
Specialist work is different
from field work, believe me.

414
00:19:57,780 --> 00:19:58,872
When was the last time you...

415
00:19:58,948 --> 00:20:00,871
Hall's one of ours and he's in trouble.

416
00:20:00,950 --> 00:20:03,123
I need two men
to get him out. Ward makes one.

417
00:20:08,457 --> 00:20:10,050
So that's why I'm going in.

418
00:20:10,126 --> 00:20:13,130
You forget,
I saw plenty of action with the Avengers.

419
00:20:15,798 --> 00:20:16,890
And you died.

420
00:20:16,966 --> 00:20:19,060
All right, team. Suit up.

421
00:20:22,638 --> 00:20:24,356


422
00:20:31,063 --> 00:20:32,360


423
00:20:36,694 --> 00:20:38,037


424
00:20:38,112 --> 00:20:39,864


425
00:20:44,243 --> 00:20:45,290
Thank you.

426
00:20:52,334 --> 00:20:53,836
Hors d'oeuvre, madame?

427
00:20:54,503 --> 00:20:55,595
Who are you?

428
00:20:56,839 --> 00:20:59,638
Apologies for his manners. He
knows very little English.

429
00:20:59,967 --> 00:21:03,267
Oh. That's... Whatever. Skye.

430
00:21:05,306 --> 00:21:06,353
Qasim Zaghlul.

431
00:21:06,599 --> 00:21:10,103
Big fan. You built half of
Dubai, including the Arabian Blade.

432
00:21:10,519 --> 00:21:14,649
I love that building.
It's super sci-fi. Where's your wife?

433
00:21:14,940 --> 00:21:16,032
Wife's name's Nadrah.

434
00:21:16,108 --> 00:21:17,155
Nadrah.

435
00:21:17,276 --> 00:21:18,323
Twin sons.

436
00:21:18,652 --> 00:21:19,778
She's staying at home with the boys?

437
00:21:19,862 --> 00:21:20,909
You know Nadrah?

438
00:21:20,988 --> 00:21:22,490
- How's she doing?
- She's good.

439
00:21:22,782 --> 00:21:25,126
The pleasure is mine.

440
00:21:25,201 --> 00:21:28,296
I could get used to
this, people. It's like Siri, if it worked.

441
00:21:30,623 --> 00:21:33,376
Skipper to Bravo, I got eyes on Top Dog.

442
00:21:33,459 --> 00:21:35,211
The Eagle is landing on it.

443
00:21:35,961 --> 00:21:37,634
What are you doing?

444
00:21:37,713 --> 00:21:41,388
Sorry. I don't know.
I see Quinn. I'm gonna go talk to him.

445
00:21:43,886 --> 00:21:45,684
I mean, that,
and its effect on the Industrial Average.

446
00:21:46,055 --> 00:21:47,227
- That was good.

447
00:21:47,306 --> 00:21:49,900
Yeah, right? Ian Quinn.

448
00:21:49,975 --> 00:21:53,149
I'm your last-minute party crasher. Skye.

449
00:21:54,104 --> 00:21:55,151
Oh.

450
00:21:55,231 --> 00:21:56,323
Wow.

451
00:21:56,899 --> 00:21:58,401
Great to meet you.

452
00:21:58,484 --> 00:22:00,532
This is Skye,
a member of the Rising Tide.

453
00:22:00,861 --> 00:22:02,363
They're a group of hackers

454
00:22:02,488 --> 00:22:04,411
that have gotten
some pretty big secrets out to the public.

455
00:22:04,740 --> 00:22:07,584
I prefer "hacktivist".
I'm glad you've heard of our site.

456
00:22:07,701 --> 00:22:09,499
I read it. We think very much alike.

457
00:22:09,578 --> 00:22:10,579
More freedom of information,

458
00:22:10,704 --> 00:22:12,172
the less government
infringing on everyone's rights.

459
00:22:12,248 --> 00:22:13,340
I'm a fan.

460
00:22:13,415 --> 00:22:16,669
That explains the invite.
This is a tough party to get into.

461
00:22:16,919 --> 00:22:19,013
Not as hard to get into
as the encrypted back channel

462
00:22:19,088 --> 00:22:22,513
you contacted us through
to request the invite.

463
00:22:22,591 --> 00:22:23,934
That's sort of where I live.

464
00:22:24,218 --> 00:22:26,437
You gotta show me
how you did that. I mean, if you sign on.

465
00:22:27,888 --> 00:22:29,356
Sign what now?

466
00:22:30,432 --> 00:22:33,185
I've been known to
turn a few black hats into white hats.

467
00:22:33,269 --> 00:22:34,612
Not just for vulnerability analysis,

468
00:22:34,728 --> 00:22:36,071
but for very creative thinking.

469
00:22:36,772 --> 00:22:38,774
Are you offering me a job?

470
00:22:39,108 --> 00:22:40,860
Well, I didn't
invite you here for your pretty face.

471
00:22:41,944 --> 00:22:43,617
I didn't know you had a pretty face.

472
00:22:43,696 --> 00:22:46,575
Yes, I wanna hire you,
before someone else snatches you up.

473
00:22:47,032 --> 00:22:48,079
That seemed to go well.

474
00:22:49,118 --> 00:22:51,212
- Yeah. It did.

475
00:22:54,039 --> 00:22:57,885
Many of you shareholders
have been with us for years,

476
00:22:58,294 --> 00:22:59,386
and I see a few new names here.

477
00:22:59,753 --> 00:23:03,474
But I wanna thank you all for traveling so
far to this beautiful country.

478
00:23:03,591 --> 00:23:06,310
And, well, for slumming it
at Shaba Tal-Banar.

479
00:23:06,385 --> 00:23:07,477


480
00:23:08,971 --> 00:23:13,568
This country, where we are allowed
to pursue progress and profit

481
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:16,403
without the stranglehold of regulations

482
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:18,318
that are now choking our world.

483
00:23:19,481 --> 00:23:24,487
The United States Government,
the E.U., the D.R.T.C., S.H.I.E.L.D.

484
00:23:24,612 --> 00:23:26,580
These are just a few
of the institutions that are guilty

485
00:23:26,655 --> 00:23:29,829
of halting the development
of new technology

486
00:23:29,950 --> 00:23:32,669
for anyone except themselves.

487
00:23:33,746 --> 00:23:35,919
We dare defy them with a new idea,

488
00:23:35,998 --> 00:23:39,002
they steal in
and sweep it out from under us.

489
00:23:39,418 --> 00:23:40,795
But not today.

490
00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:41,921
You are all aware

491
00:23:42,004 --> 00:23:43,005
of what Quinn Worldwide has been

492
00:23:43,088 --> 00:23:44,135
able to do with basic minerals,

493
00:23:44,381 --> 00:23:46,850
let alone uranium or plutonium,

494
00:23:47,259 --> 00:23:49,637
despite these unjust restrictions

495
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:52,690
that weigh the scales
in the other guys' favor.

496
00:23:52,765 --> 00:23:55,985
Well, today
I'm announcing something new.

497
00:23:56,060 --> 00:23:59,030
An element that could
balance those scales.

498
00:23:59,438 --> 00:24:00,485
And I mean that quite literally.

499
00:24:03,442 --> 00:24:05,444
Imagine if you could control gravity.

500
00:24:05,527 --> 00:24:08,781
If instead of
drilling for oil, it rose up to greet you.

501
00:24:09,073 --> 00:24:11,451
Imagine if you could move
a supertanker's worth of cargo

502
00:24:11,533 --> 00:24:12,955
with a swipe of your hand.

503
00:24:13,827 --> 00:24:16,125
Well, we will do this and more.

504
00:24:16,830 --> 00:24:19,504
This could've been
a traumatic experience for Dr. Hall.

505
00:24:19,625 --> 00:24:21,298
He may not be the same
when we find him, Ward.

506
00:24:21,377 --> 00:24:22,594
I'll talk him down.

507
00:24:22,670 --> 00:24:24,923
We don't want
your personality to set him on edge.

508
00:24:25,506 --> 00:24:27,008
Great time for humor, sir.

509
00:24:27,091 --> 00:24:28,718
My people skills
are the least of our problems

510
00:24:28,801 --> 00:24:30,223
if Skye can't get us in.

511
00:24:39,561 --> 00:24:40,653
It's locked, but there's no lock.

512
00:24:41,063 --> 00:24:42,781
Check for a keypad.

513
00:24:45,776 --> 00:24:48,074
Nothing. Wait, you can hack a keypad?

514
00:24:48,237 --> 00:24:49,659
No, not over the phone.

515
00:24:50,030 --> 00:24:51,407
Is there a reception desk?

516
00:24:53,158 --> 00:24:54,250
Okay, yeah.

517
00:24:56,829 --> 00:24:57,921
Well, now what do I do?

518
00:24:58,831 --> 00:25:00,083
What are you trying to do?

519
00:25:02,584 --> 00:25:06,930
Just looking for a pen,
here we go.

520
00:25:08,007 --> 00:25:10,681
Got to write down all those good
ideas, you know what I mean?

521
00:25:10,759 --> 00:25:11,806
Of course you know what I mean.

522
00:25:11,885 --> 00:25:14,183
You probably have, like,
10 pens for all your ideas.

523
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:16,432
What are you really doing?

524
00:25:19,893 --> 00:25:21,736
All right. I'm busted.

525
00:25:22,438 --> 00:25:24,736
I was trying to
get a glimpse behind your office door,

526
00:25:24,815 --> 00:25:25,907
see how things really operate.

527
00:25:25,983 --> 00:25:27,701
I invite you here as a guest,

528
00:25:27,776 --> 00:25:30,871
and you treat me
like another corrupt institution,

529
00:25:30,946 --> 00:25:32,948
looking for trade secrets to leak online.

530
00:25:33,574 --> 00:25:34,826
- Security...
-No, no, no, wait.

531
00:25:35,868 --> 00:25:39,338
It's just, with all these la-di-da
people, you have to be so guarded.

532
00:25:39,413 --> 00:25:40,881
So careful.

533
00:25:42,249 --> 00:25:46,629
What you say, what secrets you reveal.

534
00:25:48,797 --> 00:25:51,300
And I was hoping that you and I

535
00:25:52,926 --> 00:25:54,143
could be honest with one another.

536
00:25:56,597 --> 00:25:58,065
If you know what I mean.

537
00:26:07,649 --> 00:26:10,653
My office had
less space, more wheels.

538
00:26:10,736 --> 00:26:13,660
Wow. A view of the ocean and the pool.

539
00:26:13,781 --> 00:26:15,158
Not a bad place to do business.

540
00:26:15,491 --> 00:26:18,495
Got the dispatch
leaking Hall's location. User's an alias.

541
00:26:18,952 --> 00:26:20,579
Oh! Can you trace the D.H.C.P. server...

542
00:26:20,662 --> 00:26:23,506
Trace is running,
but it'll take time. Our girl?

543
00:26:23,582 --> 00:26:24,583
I thought she was done for,

544
00:26:24,666 --> 00:26:26,259
but she's just
sweet-talked her way into Quinn's office.

545
00:26:26,335 --> 00:26:27,632
How'd she manage that?

546
00:26:27,836 --> 00:26:30,009
She probably
just used her, um...

547
00:26:30,380 --> 00:26:33,008


548
00:26:33,801 --> 00:26:34,802
...boobs.

549
00:26:34,885 --> 00:26:36,933
Ugh! That's the only...

550
00:26:37,012 --> 00:26:38,138


551
00:26:38,222 --> 00:26:41,066
Oh, my gosh, the signal's dead. Fitz!

552
00:26:41,350 --> 00:26:44,945
I didn't. She must have... Oh, Lord.

553
00:26:47,773 --> 00:26:49,116


554
00:26:49,191 --> 00:26:50,192
Much better.

555
00:26:50,317 --> 00:26:52,194
I haven't felt that someone's-
watching-my-every-move feeling

556
00:26:52,277 --> 00:26:54,120
since I failed my driver's test.

557
00:26:54,196 --> 00:26:56,699
Do you wanna tell me
what the hell's going on?

558
00:26:56,782 --> 00:26:58,204
S.H.I.E.L.D. got to you?

559
00:26:58,450 --> 00:26:59,667
They picked me up in L.A.,

560
00:26:59,952 --> 00:27:03,297
I helped them in
a crisis, and now they wanna recruit me.

561
00:27:03,455 --> 00:27:04,547
Of course they did.

562
00:27:04,623 --> 00:27:05,715
So I played along.

563
00:27:05,999 --> 00:27:10,220
Talk about inside info.
I have a bunk on their plane.

564
00:27:10,879 --> 00:27:14,634
I've been gathering intel, biding my
time until I could become useful.

565
00:27:15,175 --> 00:27:16,222
I thought this qualified.

566
00:27:16,552 --> 00:27:19,396
Why would they trust you
with a covert operation like this?

567
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:22,559
Something about S.H.I.E.L.D. not
breaking international laws.

568
00:27:22,641 --> 00:27:24,018
They had no other options.

569
00:27:24,893 --> 00:27:28,898
Whereas I like to keep mine open.

570
00:27:40,617 --> 00:27:41,789


571
00:27:42,035 --> 00:27:43,332
Next patrol any minute now.

572
00:27:43,579 --> 00:27:47,083
Skye's offline.
Repeat, we've lost audio and vitals.

573
00:27:47,541 --> 00:27:49,589
Abort is not an option,
but if she's compromised...

574
00:27:49,710 --> 00:27:51,257
She's still our only way in
to get to Dr. Hall.

575
00:27:51,545 --> 00:27:52,762
And we're their only way out.

576
00:27:52,921 --> 00:27:54,594
The beach is all clear.
Let's move up the ridge.

577
00:27:57,926 --> 00:27:59,394
You're saying they wanted to rope me in

578
00:27:59,511 --> 00:28:01,013
because I pose a genuine threat?

579
00:28:01,180 --> 00:28:02,898
Yes. And fit their profile.

580
00:28:04,016 --> 00:28:05,438
- Profile?
-Sure.

581
00:28:05,559 --> 00:28:07,527
You're a criminal,
you have a warrant somewhere.

582
00:28:07,603 --> 00:28:08,604
Probably.

583
00:28:08,729 --> 00:28:09,855
Specialized skill set.

584
00:28:10,063 --> 00:28:12,191
I try to stay humble, but fail.

585
00:28:12,941 --> 00:28:14,033
No family.

586
00:28:17,446 --> 00:28:19,790
I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hit a nerve.

587
00:28:19,907 --> 00:28:23,036
But that is what
these people do. S.H.I.E.L.D.

588
00:28:24,286 --> 00:28:26,960
They prey on fear,
and loneliness, and desperation,

589
00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:30,960
and they offer a home
to those who have no one else to turn to.

590
00:28:33,045 --> 00:28:35,093
But I can offer you something better.

591
00:28:39,009 --> 00:28:40,727


592
00:28:49,811 --> 00:28:51,905
Damn! A little rusty, I guess.

593
00:28:54,733 --> 00:28:56,986
Guys, clock's ticking. Where's Skye?

594
00:28:57,110 --> 00:29:00,284
You stay with us, there's no
secrets, no lies and no agenda.

595
00:29:00,614 --> 00:29:03,333
You're free to do what you do

596
00:29:03,450 --> 00:29:05,418
without Big Brother watching over you.

597
00:29:06,411 --> 00:29:07,458
But first

598
00:29:08,830 --> 00:29:10,707
you have to tell me exactly what agenda

599
00:29:10,832 --> 00:29:12,755
S.H.I.E.L.D. sent you in here with.

600
00:29:13,835 --> 00:29:18,511
Well, they wanted me
to do whatever it takes to get in here.

601
00:29:22,636 --> 00:29:24,354
Get in here and...

602
00:29:28,767 --> 00:29:29,814
Bat my eyes.

603
00:29:31,353 --> 00:29:32,821
Get you talking.

604
00:29:34,690 --> 00:29:35,691
- We're in!
-She's done it!

605
00:29:35,816 --> 00:29:36,863
Fitz, you're up.

606
00:29:36,942 --> 00:29:39,365
Oh, mother of all things.
Move, move, move!

607
00:29:42,531 --> 00:29:44,625
We have a man
down. Hostiles on the east ridge.

608
00:29:44,700 --> 00:29:45,826


609
00:29:48,328 --> 00:29:50,376
We need a reset here, Fitz.

610
00:29:52,708 --> 00:29:53,709
Fitz!

611
00:29:53,834 --> 00:29:56,132
Saying his name repeatedly does
not increase productivity.

612
00:29:56,211 --> 00:29:57,303
Okay, go.

613
00:29:57,379 --> 00:29:58,631
Or maybe it does.

614
00:30:00,048 --> 00:30:01,971
System rebooting in two, one...

615
00:30:02,175 --> 00:30:03,222
NOW!

616
00:30:04,886 --> 00:30:06,388


617
00:30:11,893 --> 00:30:13,486
I'll look for Dr. Hall down in the lab.

618
00:30:13,562 --> 00:30:14,688
I'll get Skye.

619
00:30:16,315 --> 00:30:18,033
No, you can't be the only angle.

620
00:30:18,317 --> 00:30:22,038
S.H.I.E.L.D.'s thorough enough to know
about me and my exploits.

621
00:30:22,237 --> 00:30:24,365
It takes more
than a pretty face to disarm me.

622
00:30:24,781 --> 00:30:26,579
Sir, we have a security breach.

623
00:30:26,950 --> 00:30:29,169
Oh, the timing on that was perfect.

624
00:30:29,244 --> 00:30:30,461


625
00:30:39,838 --> 00:30:43,763
Dr. Hall? Agent Coulson.
We have an exit strategy.

626
00:30:43,842 --> 00:30:45,094
S.H.I.E.L.D.?

627
00:30:45,177 --> 00:30:46,303
Yes, sir. Let's get you out of here.

628
00:30:46,386 --> 00:30:50,141
I'm sorry, Mr. Coulson.
I'm right where I'm supposed to be.

629
00:30:51,641 --> 00:30:52,688
I'll be honest.

630
00:30:52,768 --> 00:30:55,772
Our strategy did not
take into consideration you saying that.

631
00:31:01,485 --> 00:31:02,782
Oh, no.

632
00:31:02,861 --> 00:31:04,704
Look, I don't know
what Quinn is promising you, but...

633
00:31:04,780 --> 00:31:05,872
- An opportunity.

634
00:31:09,993 --> 00:31:12,121
We can't let Quinn
have control of this. It's too dangerous.

635
00:31:12,245 --> 00:31:14,964
We can't let anyone
have control of this. That's why I'm here.

636
00:31:15,540 --> 00:31:18,635
To bury it at
the bottom of the ocean. With him.

637
00:31:18,794 --> 00:31:20,262


638
00:31:23,256 --> 00:31:25,099
Coulson. The leak came from...

639
00:31:25,175 --> 00:31:26,973
Dr. Hall. Yeah, I'm getting that.

640
00:31:27,427 --> 00:31:31,557
All the petitions, embargoes in the
world couldn't stop Ian.

641
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:33,108
He grows more powerful every day.

642
00:31:33,934 --> 00:31:35,936
And then I get word he's found this.

643
00:31:39,898 --> 00:31:40,990


644
00:31:41,066 --> 00:31:44,570
I'm sorry, Mr. Coulson.
I had to make a choice.

645
00:31:48,448 --> 00:31:50,200
Something tells me
that wasn't the off button.

646
00:31:54,538 --> 00:31:55,664


647
00:31:57,874 --> 00:31:59,171
Guys, we need to talk.

648
00:32:00,502 --> 00:32:01,754
Lost you for a minute.

649
00:32:01,837 --> 00:32:03,305
We're aware of the problem, sir.

650
00:32:03,422 --> 00:32:04,890
Hall wanted Quinn to kidnap him?

651
00:32:05,006 --> 00:32:06,098
Yeah, why would he do that?

652
00:32:06,174 --> 00:32:07,221
What is wrong with him?

653
00:32:07,426 --> 00:32:09,269
Quinn built a gravity generator.

654
00:32:09,386 --> 00:32:11,263
Like the one we found but bigger.

655
00:32:11,346 --> 00:32:14,065
Hall knew Quinn would
need him to control its raw power.

656
00:32:14,141 --> 00:32:15,484
But Hall just wanted to unleash it.

657
00:32:15,559 --> 00:32:17,732
The one we found was 2.5 centimeters

658
00:32:17,853 --> 00:32:20,072
in diameter. It stopped a semi.

659
00:32:20,439 --> 00:32:21,691
How big are we talking?

660
00:32:21,773 --> 00:32:24,777
Twelve feet. It'll definitely take
down the entire compound.

661
00:32:24,901 --> 00:32:26,778
- It'll sink the place.
-No, it'll do more than that.

662
00:32:27,112 --> 00:32:28,489
Work a solution.

663
00:32:28,572 --> 00:32:30,666
I'll disconnect the power
before things get...

664
00:32:31,950 --> 00:32:33,372
crazy.

665
00:32:36,830 --> 00:32:38,628
They can't help you.

666
00:32:42,586 --> 00:32:47,308
Soon it'll reach
an exponential acceleration state.

667
00:32:50,802 --> 00:32:51,928
I'm sorry.

668
00:32:54,514 --> 00:32:57,358
My team's here. Good people.

669
00:32:57,434 --> 00:32:59,402
Sworn to protect all mankind?

670
00:33:00,353 --> 00:33:02,731
That's what I'm doing, I promise.

671
00:33:03,857 --> 00:33:05,780
Making things right.

672
00:33:10,238 --> 00:33:11,615


673
00:33:14,034 --> 00:33:15,081


674
00:33:18,955 --> 00:33:20,002
Don't you get it?

675
00:33:20,207 --> 00:33:21,959
S.H.I.E.L.D.'s against
everything you stand for.

676
00:33:22,375 --> 00:33:23,592
They're Big Brother.

677
00:33:23,710 --> 00:33:26,179
Maybe. But they're the nice big brother

678
00:33:26,254 --> 00:33:27,927
who stands up
for his helpless little brother

679
00:33:28,048 --> 00:33:29,550
who was getting beat up because

680
00:33:29,674 --> 00:33:31,221
he ate a piece of cake that he wasn't...

681
00:33:32,719 --> 00:33:35,017
You know... You kidnapped a person!

682
00:33:35,096 --> 00:33:36,097
I set him free!

683
00:33:36,848 --> 00:33:37,895
I saved him!

684
00:33:39,559 --> 00:33:40,731
And I could've saved you.

685
00:33:42,229 --> 00:33:43,902
This place is massive.

686
00:33:44,689 --> 00:33:45,736
Where am I heading?

687
00:33:45,899 --> 00:33:47,025
Southwest corner.

688
00:33:47,108 --> 00:33:49,281
Ward, tell me
you've got things covered on the ground.

689
00:33:49,402 --> 00:33:51,245
I can't do a damn thing from out here.

690
00:33:51,613 --> 00:33:52,785
I'm working on it.

691
00:33:53,365 --> 00:33:54,412


692
00:33:57,285 --> 00:33:58,457
Tell me what they're doing!

693
00:34:00,580 --> 00:34:02,082
Tell me what they're doing.

694
00:34:02,749 --> 00:34:05,878
You have to talk.
You have no other way out of this.

695
00:34:07,254 --> 00:34:08,847
You're expendable to S.H.I.E.L.D.

696
00:34:08,964 --> 00:34:10,637
They sent you in here with nothing...

697
00:34:11,591 --> 00:34:12,717


698
00:34:14,135 --> 00:34:15,307
They taught me a few things.

699
00:34:16,054 --> 00:34:17,397
The kid's got balls.

700
00:34:17,639 --> 00:34:19,312
Thanks. But, yuck.

701
00:34:21,768 --> 00:34:23,770
But do you have what it takes
to pull the trigger?

702
00:34:25,814 --> 00:34:26,815
Nope.

703
00:34:32,821 --> 00:34:33,913
Get her.

704
00:34:34,447 --> 00:34:35,824


705
00:34:35,907 --> 00:34:36,999


706
00:34:38,326 --> 00:34:39,498


707
00:34:44,833 --> 00:34:48,087
Hall. We have to evacuate.

708
00:34:48,169 --> 00:34:50,763
Get the chopper. Now!

709
00:34:53,550 --> 00:34:55,223


710
00:34:58,930 --> 00:35:03,276
All I had to do to get access to Quinn's
lab was drop little clues,

711
00:35:03,852 --> 00:35:05,695
create a puzzle for him to solve.

712
00:35:06,605 --> 00:35:08,152
Quinn likes to feel smart.

713
00:35:08,356 --> 00:35:11,200
So you leaked your location.
Why not try reasoning with him?

714
00:35:11,276 --> 00:35:13,119
You can't reason with an addict.

715
00:35:13,194 --> 00:35:15,538
And he's addicted
to exploiting opportunities.

716
00:35:16,197 --> 00:35:20,043
But he never gives
a thought to the friends, ecosystems,

717
00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:22,709
future generations
left ruined in his wake.

718
00:35:22,829 --> 00:35:25,833
Like Agents Fitz and Simmons?
Your former students?

719
00:35:26,791 --> 00:35:28,384
I've got them in my ear right now,

720
00:35:28,501 --> 00:35:30,048
telling me you're not a bad guy.

721
00:35:30,170 --> 00:35:31,387
We could've worked with you on this.

722
00:35:32,964 --> 00:35:34,056


723
00:35:36,551 --> 00:35:39,725
S.H.I.E.L.D.? S.H.I.E.L.D.
is just as guilty of the same thing!

724
00:35:40,388 --> 00:35:43,392
Experimentation
without thought of consequence!

725
00:35:44,392 --> 00:35:48,647
Your search for an unlimited power
source brought an alien invasion.

726
00:35:49,648 --> 00:35:50,740
Fair point.

727
00:35:52,484 --> 00:35:56,409
This element is far too powerful for you,

728
00:35:56,529 --> 00:35:58,702
for him, for anyone.

729
00:35:59,658 --> 00:36:02,502
But I don't have
to tell you that. You're feeling it now.

730
00:36:07,540 --> 00:36:08,917


731
00:36:15,173 --> 00:36:16,550


732
00:36:22,013 --> 00:36:23,060
Come here.

733
00:36:23,390 --> 00:36:24,892
No, no, please, please.

734
00:36:25,475 --> 00:36:26,727


735
00:36:41,241 --> 00:36:42,333


736
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:46,292
Are you hurt?

737
00:36:47,122 --> 00:36:49,466
Just follow my orders.
I'll get us out of here.

738
00:36:55,213 --> 00:36:56,681


739
00:37:02,637 --> 00:37:06,141
I see the future,
Mr. Coulson, and it's a catastrophe.

740
00:37:06,433 --> 00:37:08,652
I just see a lot of people in trouble.

741
00:37:11,771 --> 00:37:15,617
Nothing. Fitz-Simmons'?
I tried to cut the power. It's still going.

742
00:37:15,984 --> 00:37:17,657
- You need to find a catalyst.
-Find some sort of catalyst.

743
00:37:17,944 --> 00:37:20,072
Something to
create a chemical reaction in the core.

744
00:37:20,155 --> 00:37:22,749
It's not too late to do the right
thing. Help me find a catalyst...

745
00:37:22,824 --> 00:37:24,826
lam doing the right thing.

746
00:37:25,076 --> 00:37:26,669
A completely selfless act.

747
00:37:26,995 --> 00:37:29,589
I know that history
never celebrates what didn't happen.

748
00:37:29,664 --> 00:37:31,837
They'll call this a tragedy.

749
00:37:33,001 --> 00:37:34,844
They won't understand
the good I did here.

750
00:37:35,837 --> 00:37:37,009
Killing innocent people?

751
00:37:38,298 --> 00:37:39,675
Saving millions.

752
00:37:40,675 --> 00:37:43,849
We have to live
with the choices we make.

753
00:37:43,928 --> 00:37:46,807
But sometimes
we have to die with them, too.

754
00:37:48,516 --> 00:37:49,768
I understand.

755
00:37:51,811 --> 00:37:53,108
You made a hard call.

756
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:54,982
Yes.

757
00:37:55,982 --> 00:37:57,609
Now I have to make mine.

758
00:37:59,527 --> 00:38:01,621


759
00:38:05,158 --> 00:38:06,375


760
00:38:18,254 --> 00:38:19,551


761
00:38:20,882 --> 00:38:22,600


762
00:38:36,856 --> 00:38:37,903
Say it back to me.

763
00:38:38,024 --> 00:38:41,244
Deepest level of the Fridge.
Unmarked vault. No access granted.

764
00:38:41,486 --> 00:38:42,988
And no recorded entry.

765
00:38:43,071 --> 00:38:45,415
I don't want it listed,
I don't want it flagged for The Slingshot.

766
00:38:46,407 --> 00:38:50,253
Anyone finds out, you're
responsible. And suffering. Understood?

767
00:38:50,537 --> 00:38:51,584
Yes, sir.

768
00:38:52,247 --> 00:38:53,920
It's what Hall would've wanted.

769
00:38:55,124 --> 00:38:56,296


770
00:38:56,376 --> 00:38:58,049
I used to have this down.

771
00:38:59,712 --> 00:39:02,431
Should be just muscle memory.

772
00:39:02,507 --> 00:39:04,009
You're making a habit of it, sir.

773
00:39:04,092 --> 00:39:05,184
Trying.

774
00:39:05,468 --> 00:39:06,594


775
00:39:07,011 --> 00:39:08,103
I guess I'm a little rusty.

776
00:39:08,555 --> 00:39:10,273
Of these close calls, I mean.

777
00:39:10,723 --> 00:39:12,350
I don't enjoy running back end.

778
00:39:14,435 --> 00:39:16,437
You want off the plane? Go ahead.

779
00:39:18,940 --> 00:39:19,941
I want in.

780
00:39:22,068 --> 00:39:24,446
Reporting for combat, next time it's up.

781
00:39:25,572 --> 00:39:28,951
You're committed to the cause,
or just watching my back?

782
00:39:30,118 --> 00:39:31,415
Same thing.

783
00:39:32,745 --> 00:39:34,713
And you are a little rusty.

784
00:39:54,976 --> 00:39:58,731
You and your brothers.
Where'd you grow up'?

785
00:39:59,898 --> 00:40:01,821
Massachusetts. Mostly.

786
00:40:02,942 --> 00:40:04,159
A house?

787
00:40:04,903 --> 00:40:05,950
You didn't?

788
00:40:06,779 --> 00:40:08,076


789
00:40:09,741 --> 00:40:11,288
One house.

790
00:40:15,413 --> 00:40:17,086
The Brodys.

791
00:40:21,669 --> 00:40:23,842
I was nine.

792
00:40:23,922 --> 00:40:26,846
They sent me
back to Saint Agnes after a month.

793
00:40:27,508 --> 00:40:29,306
Said I wasn't a good fit.

794
00:40:30,261 --> 00:40:31,638
Foster parents.

795
00:40:32,972 --> 00:40:34,349
Your first?

796
00:40:35,350 --> 00:40:36,693
My third.

797
00:40:38,436 --> 00:40:39,483
I had heard it before but...

798
00:40:42,190 --> 00:40:43,783
this one was different.

799
00:40:46,027 --> 00:40:47,119
'Cause you wanted them to like you.

800
00:40:50,365 --> 00:40:51,457
Bad.

801
00:40:56,204 --> 00:40:58,707
I called her "mom" once.

802
00:41:00,667 --> 00:41:02,294
Tried it out.

803
00:41:03,378 --> 00:41:04,504


804
00:41:04,879 --> 00:41:07,223
Guess it wasn't a good fit.

805
00:41:12,679 --> 00:41:14,556
Hoping for something and losing it

806
00:41:14,681 --> 00:41:17,525
hurts more than
never hoping for anything.

807
00:41:20,895 --> 00:41:21,942
We won't turn our back.

808
00:41:22,063 --> 00:41:23,280
Doesn't matter.

809
00:41:24,232 --> 00:41:28,362
I made my choice. And I want this. Bad.

810
00:41:33,741 --> 00:41:35,584
And I know there's a truth serum.

811
00:41:36,202 --> 00:41:38,204
Whatever you say, rookie.

812
00:41:56,931 --> 00:41:58,649
