Episode 11: Un-Unbound
Skye and Trip are walking through the hallway of the Globemaster, the plane is grounded.
Skye: I'm so glad we're finally going to get off the ship and catch up, it's been awhile old Trippy.
Trip: I ain't old. Besides you owe me after all that Terrigen Mist crap I went through for you. Here's my plan, I say we go to the arcade, play some rounds of Mortal Kombat, maybe some Dance-Dance Revolution, I'm the king of that by the way. Maybe we can get a pizza afterwards, and get back to the Globemaster before we leave.
Skye: Fine by me. Let's rock that joint!
Skye starts doing an air guitar.
Trip stairs at her.
Skye: What?
Trip: Please don't do that again.
Skye: Sorry.
As Trip walks over he sees a Deadpool Action figure on the ground.
Trip: Huh, I wonder who's this is?
Skye: Yeah, someone is probably missing their toy right now, maybe we should find out who it belongs to.
Trip: I don't want to go through the ship asking who it belongs to, let's just leave it.
Skye: Aha! You didn't return it, you don't deserve to play Arcade games with me.
Trip: What the hell is this?
Skye: That was a test! I put that there, only to see what you would do. And you choose wrong Triplett.
Trip: Oh come on, you were testing me? I didn't even know it.
Mack comes out through a door.
Mack: Actually, Trip, It was my test.
Skye: Mack, what are you talking about?
Mack: I planted that Action Figure in your pocket knowing you would try and test Trip with it, and you failed my test, which was supposed to be about being compassionate towards people's different opinions. We can't go bowling next sunday.
Skye: I knew something was suspicious when a toy I never bought randomly ended up in my pocket.
Mack: So, I guess you both failed.
Bobbi walks in.
Bobbi (To Mack): You too, Mack. This was all my test.
Mack: What? I bought this Deadpool toy, how could that have been you testing me?
Bobbi: We went to Toys R Us together, remember? I showed you the action figure than you bought it.
Mack: Oh right, so what were you testing?
Bobbi: To see your resourcefulness with seemingly useless objects. Testing other agents... is that useful?
Hunter walks in.
Hunter: Actually Bobbi you failed my test.
Trip: This has to be a joke. Was everything we did these last couple of days all part of these stupid tests?
Hunter (To Bobbi): Who's idea was it to go to the Toys R Us?
Skye: Yours.
Hunter: No, Fitzs.
Bobbi: You said it was your test, how in any way was it?
Hunter: I agreed with him.
Fitz and Simmons walk into the hallway.
Fitz: Me and Simmons were testing to see how you would react when put into a seemingly normal environment.
Simmons: The results were quite interesting.
Bobbi (To Fitz): So, did I pass?
Fitz: You tell me, is testing other Agents useful?
Bobbi: Damn my own words.
Hunter: You can say that again. Wait, did I damn my own words?
Trip: So was anything we did not part of these mind games?
Coulson and May enter the hallway.
Coulson: Probably not.
Skye: Coulson, you were in this too?
Coulson: You bet. Me and May decided to test what FitzSimmons would do when experimenting on you guys. We gave them the assignment.
May: Coulson just dragged me along. I thought it sounded stupid.
Simmons: How did we do?
Coulson: Is testing other Agents a good experiment.
Fitz: Decently so.
Nick Fury comes out.
Nick: While we're on this topic, I have to confess something to you Agent Coulson, this has all been a test.
Coulson: Director Fury, what are you talking about?
The Avengers, Victoria Hand, Ward, the Agents in the hallway and other characters from the Marvel Cinematic Universe come out and start clapping.
Coulson: What's going on?
Nick: Your whole life since Iron Man has been one big test for you, Agent Coulson. To see how an Agent would react to a superhero team forming to fight off aliens and super computers, and to see how you would handle a Hydra invasion of S.H.I.E.L.D., I got to say, totally worth it.
Coulson: I don't believe this, so all of these people...
Nick: Paid actors, all of them, or S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents, pretending to be Hydra.
Ward walks over
Ward: Sorry sir about all this, Fury bribed me with Sour Patch Kids.
Coulson: What about the...
Nick: Special effects, we have great FX guys.
Coulson: Even you, Tony?
Tony: Especially me, Phil. I helped Nick here start this whole thing.
Coulson: Huh, I guess Tony Stark does look a little bit like Robert Downey Jr.
Nick (To Coulson): So, now since this little game is over, you need to get back to work.
Suddenly, the Mad Titan Thanos walks out.
Thanos: Nicholas J. Fury, you have failed the test.
Nick: Who to the what now? Who the hell is this guy?
Thanos: Ha, who I am is irrelevant. You lost the test I gave you, I have obtained all of the Infinity Stones eons ago, I used there power to create a simulation of the Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D. to see if you could find out about all the Infinity Stones and outwit me possibly, making you smart enough to be my apprentice. Clearly, I was mistaken.
Suddenly everything fads away, except for Nick and Thanos, only to find themselves on an astroid.
Nick: So, everything that ever happened, including me paying all those actors and setting up the MCU for Coulson was just a big test for me?
Thanos: Precisely. But you failed, prepare for destruction.
Nick: AHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Nick Fury suddenly wakes up, he's in his bedroom and it's 2:30 A.M. in the morning.
Nick: Whew, it was just a big bad dream, now where was I?
Nick Fury sees in his bed a naked Oliver Queen, playing with the TV remote.
Oliver: Do you get HBO on here?
Nick: AHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Oliver Queen than wakes up in his bed.
Oliver: Felicity, I had that dream again!
Felicity gets up next to him.
Felicity: The one where Skye and Trip are arguing about that toy and Nick Fury is just being tested by Thanos, and then somehow you end up in bed with him?
Oliver: Exactly.
Felicity: What did I tell you, Ollie? You need to stop watching Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. before you go to bed.
Oliver: But it's just so cool. Ugh! Fine.
Oliver and Felicity lay in the bed, neither sleeping.
Oliver: Felicity.
Felicity: Yes, Oliver?
Oliver: You want to watch Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.?
Felicity: Definitely.
Oliver gets the remote and turns on the TV.
Zooming in on Oliver and Felicity's television.
Coulson: Previously on Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Skye: I can't believe Ward is running for Mayor.
May: And against Captain Cook no less!
Coulson: Well, it's obvious what we have to do.
May: Support Ward.
Coulson: Support Cook.
Coulson and Skye goes to campaign for Captain Cook
May goes to the Hydra building.
May: Jordana and Khenan were just Agents Skye and Coulson in disguise.
Ward: Say what?
Bobbi and Hunter take refuge in Greggie's house.
Hunter (To Greggie): We're S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents.
Bobbi: We're looking for the A.I.M. headquarters.
Greggie: I know where it is, but in order for me to tell you, the two of you must do something for me.
Bobbi: What?
Greggie: Go into a cave and get a crystal for me.
Bobbi and Hunter go find what appears to be a Terrigen Crystal and go to Greggis's cabin.
Greggie: Psych! I've been working with A.I.M. the entire time, seize them!
FitzSimmons and Mack are stuck on the globemaster, heading to the A.I.M. base.
Mack: Oh no, how are we going to get out this one!?
They land and are taken into the facility.
Trip and Peter are doing tests for the Scientist.
Scientist: Looks like we've got some buddies for you two.
Spencer the A.I.M. Enforcer brings in Bobbi, Hunter, FitzSimmons and Mack
Trip: United at last... mostly.
Coulson: Hey!
Skye: Don't really care.
Greggie walks into the A.I.M. Leader's office.
The leader is reveled to be the one, the only, Aldrich Killian!
Aldrich: Let our phase immense.
And now...
Aldrich Killian and Greggie
Location: A.I.M. Headquarters... Really writers? Out of all the MCU villains you could've brought back, you picked Aldrich Killian?
Aldrich: Our plans will soon be in motion.
Greggie: Yeah, you just said that. What do you want me to do with the S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents in the gym?
Aldrich: Continuing the testing on the most likely subjects, give the others something to do. We only need them for leverage.
Greggie: I'll go do that.
Aldrich: Before you go Greggie, how is the election?
Greggie: Cook seems to be leading now, oddly enough S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents seem to be campaigning for him, but before that trashed him for a short time.
Aldrich: I have trusted James to pull out a win for mayor. If he can't a huge part of our world domination plan will be put on hold.
Greggie: Uh, sir, I think he likes to be called "Cookie".
Aldrich: I'm not calling him that! If you try and order me one more time Greggie, I'll show you my cookie!
Greggie: You call your fist cookie?
Aldrich: What, no. I mean my literal cookie. I got it at the 1999's New Year's Eve party where I met Tony Stark. Hard as a rock now and covered in mold, I'll show you, if I am disobeyed again.
Greggie: It's from 1999! That's over fifteen years ago, that is so gross!
Aldrich (Camera close up): I know.
Eagle Icon... Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.!
Bobbi, Hunter, Mack, Fitz,Simmons Trip and Peter are all standing there
Mack: Bobbi, Hunter, Trip? What are you guys doing here?
Bobbi: How can I say this without sounding insane? Me and Hunter were thrown out of a plane by Coulson, and landed in the middle of a forest, where we took shelter with Greggie over there, and he sent us into a cave filled with some monster that was never explained where we got him a Terrigen Crystal. But to our woe he was working for A.I.M. and we got sent here.
Hunter: Atleast we finally found Trip.
Trip: Oh yeah, so happy out of all the times you guys could come looking for me, you pick now. Not when I was wondering around LA and could've easily been brought back. I want some Fist-Print cookies dammit!
Mack: Yeah, Trip. We finished the cooking plotline ages ago.
Trip: Say what! I hate this.
Fitz (To Bobbi): Me, Simmons and Mack were on the Globemaster until the A.I.M. leader hacked it and made it land here.
Bobbi: Why didn't you press the automatic reset button, that throws off any hackers and lets the driver re-gain control of the ship? Made for situations exactly like that.
Simmons: That's what the button was for? I thought it reset the S.H.I.E.L.D. cars. You don't know how long I spent finding and locking the radios on the Kidz Bop channel.
Everyone stairs at Simmons.
Simmons: What? I like kids, and I like music. Perfect combination!
Mack sees Peter in the background doing the Charleston Dance.
Peter: You guys should dance with me, I'm going to have a butt of steel by the time this is done. Notices Mack You!
Mack: You!
Trip sees Captain Cook than walk in.
Trip: You?
Captain Cook: You?
Hunter: Who are you! Who, who, who, who.
Everyone stairs at Hunter now.
Hunter: I thought we were singing a song.
Mack: Peter, what are you doing here?
Peter: After you abandoned me and stole my Spider A.I.M. threw me in this weird place. Apparently I didn't return Spider when I should've or something.
Trip: And the bigger question, why is Captain Cook here?
Captain Cook: Relex, I'm only here for Sitz and Fimmons.
Simmons: What did he just say?
Fitz: Our name is legendary. Make us cook drugs for you, and capturing us and our ship again is one thing, but mispronouncing our names is just low.
Trip: Atleast it's not me this time.
Captain Cook: Yeah, apparently we need you two again. So, follow me.
Coulson and Skye
Location: Voting Booth
Coulson is drawing a campaign poster. Skye is looking the other way
Coulson: Almost done...
Skye (Turning Away): Can I look please?
Coulson: Not until it's finished, Skye. We've been over this.
Skye: Wasn't I supposed to help you make the posters?
Coulson: Yeah, but I decided to do this on my own. My idea is too good and I don't want you screwing with it... and done.
Skye goes over
Skye: Wow, it's a ... piece of crap. What is that even supposed to be?
The Propaganda poster is a half circle with a zigzag line in between it.
Skye: What the hell even is this, it looks like a wannabe Math or Psychics equation for studying the universe or something. You're making posters that give people math problems now, Coulson?
Coulson: No! It's supposed to symbolic, Skye. The Zigzag is the voters, half of the circle is who they're voting for. Intelligence wins the vote. Duh.
Skye: Well, I don't know why you thought that would work but we need something trendy, something innovative. We need a catchy slogan. Like, how about don't be a Crook, vote for Cook.
Coulson: But now you're calling the voters crooks.
Skye: Better than saying they're Zigzags! I don't even know what it means, nor am I voting yet I'm offended by it.
Coulson: We can go to the shop and buy more supplies maybe bedazzle these up a little.
Skye: The cashier at the shop used to make propaganda posters for Union Allied Construction, she could help us.
Coulson: Sounds great, the election is coming up soon and we've got nothing for Cook. Wait, why does a construction company need propaganda?
Skye: Oh Phil, you are your... questions.
Ward and May
Location: Hydra Headquarters
In the Hydra Auditorium
Ward: And that's why I should be mayor... any questions?
Ward looks to see no one in the audience. Except for one man...
Man in Audience: You suck!
Ward: Who even is this guy? How on Earth did he even get in here?
Bakshi and May come in.
Ward: How am I supposed to prepare for this when none of you will ever watch my fake speeches?
Bakshi: I was on a roll with Minigolf.
Ward: Since you're here anyway, you two ask me some mock questions.
May: We're not here for your speech practice. We've got an issue, you're down in the polls.
Ward: Probably because S.H.I.E.L.D. keeps supporting Cook's campaign. Why would they even want A.I.M. to win? I mean, I only spent years tormenting Coulson and his team, but I thought we were chill. I mean, business is business.
Bakshi: More like Secret Espionage Politics is Secret Espionage Politics.
Ward: That's too long though. How about SEP is SEP. Yeah, I like that. Coulson needs to know that sep is sep.
May: We're getting off topic here. We need to get you higher up, Ward. Or you're going to lose this election.
Ward: We've tried everything, but I can't get people to vote for me. I even volunteered at that Puppy Shelter.
Bakshi: That was a Retirement home!
Ward: No wonder they kept biting me when I tried to pick them up.
May: I have an idea, the reason A.I.M. got ahead was because of the propaganda posters Coulson and Skye put up. So, we just need some good ones for you. Help get your image back up.
Ward: That's a good idea, heard there's a store downtown. The cashier has some good ideas on how to make those posters, ask her about it.
May: It's a plan, I'll go talk to Kara.
May walks up into Kara's office.
Her office is full of pictures filled with Ward, all of them blacked out.
May: She used green highlighter on this one, ew.
May walks deeper into it.
Kara: May! What can I help you with?
May: Ward gave me another mission, we need to help the campaign.
Kara: Again? When can we just overthrow him?
May: We talked about this, after the campaign.
Kara: So, what are we doing?
May: Going to some store with a cashier who's an expert on propaganda posters. Since Skye and Coulson used those to successfully further Captain Cook's campaign I thought we could do the same for Ward. The real question is, how can you actually make propaganda posters against Ward that are believable?
Kara: You said it. We'll figure something out, I have a way with words if you didn't notice.
Captain Cook and FitzSimmons
Location: A.I.M. Laboratory... half of these test tubes are just filled with colored water
Captain Cook: Welp, here it is.
Fitz: This is actually a pretty nice lab.
Simmons smacks Fitz's pec.
Fitz: Ow, my boobie!
Simmons: Fitz! We can't work for this madman again! (To Captain Cook) I'm sorry, but we are not taking part in your utterly insane experiments again.
Captain Cook: You don't have a choice sweet cheeks. But, we need you to do something a little different for us this time.
Simmons: Like what?
Captain Cook takes out his tweezers and reachers into his pocket.
Captain Cook: Where is it? I'll just take everything out.
Captain Cook takes out a roll of toilet paper, a mini cat scratching post, an apple, a wind up race car, a trumpet, and the Terrigen Crystal.
Captain Cook: Ha, got the Trumpet from Hunter.
Simmons: What are you going to do with that Terrigen Crystal?
Captain Cook: I'm not doing anything with it. You two are.
Simmons: I beg your pardon?
Captain Cook: Listen, as much as I like teasing you two knuckleheaded Monkey fiends, you're smart.
Simmons: Only Fitz really likes monkeys.. but whatever.
Fitz: Monkey's will take over once the rain forests get too small, fact.
Captain Cook: Anyway! We want to find out what gives the Terrigen Crystal it's ability to grant those with Inhuman blood superpowers. Our scientists can't make heads or tails how to do it, but S.H.I.E.L.D. might.
Simmons: What makes you think we could figure out how those work anymore than your scientists could?
Captain Cook: S.H.I.E.L.D. has been studying up on Inhumans, so if anyone could figure it out, it's you two.
Fitz: We are pretty smart, and did study a lot about Inhumans. A.I.M. did their homework.
Captain Cook: We're smart people too
Fitz: But, didn't you say your scientists couldn't figure out what makes Inhumans gain their powers from the crystal. Making you not actually as smart as us?
Captain Cook: You see there's a perfectly logical explanation for that Fitzie.
Fitz: What?
Captain Cook: Two magic words: Shut up.
Simmons: Not to mention, you're giving the job to people who don't work for you. We could easily turn at the drop of the hat.
Captain Cook: Look, I didn't say we were that smart of people! Just do it okay, and don't mess it up.
Fitz: Or what?
Captain Cook: You're buddies will face the full wrath of A.I.M.!
Captain Cook turns on a projector showing the captured Agents in the A.I.M. gym.
Meanwhile, in said gym.
The Agents and Peter are doing Jumping Jacks.
Scientist: Keep going... keep going... yes, you powered my mini-toaster. Now I can finally cook those little slithers of bread that are in the bag after you finished most of it.
They're all panting.
Hunter: I feel like I'm on the Jumping Jack squad again. (To Scientist) I don't suppose you have a piece of technology that makes you super good at jumping jacks, do you?
Scientist: Uh, no.
Mack: What are we even being tested for anyway?
Scientist: How can I be polite about this... none of your business.
Bobbi: Trip, Peter? What did they do to you?
Peter: They made me slow! And then turned us into a drink.
Bobbi: I really hope that's a metaphor for something.
Trip goes close to Bobbi.
Trip: I wish that too.
Bobbi: But, you experienced it.
Trip: Ex-freaking-actly.
Bobbi: Shutters.
Scientist: All right, gather up everyone.
Everyone gathers up.
Scientist: (To Trip and Peter) We're going to be doing another test, which you other Agents can be involved in too.
Trip: What is it?
Scientist: A good old fashion game of Dodgeball! The world's most intense sport, don't google that.
Peter puts his IPhone away.
Peter: Sorry.
Mack: He had a phone this whole time?
Scientist: The teams are Mack and Bobbi against Trip and Hunter.
Hunter: What about Peter?
Scientist: Oh, that's the magic of it, Lance. Peter, as part of your test you will be playing both sides, equally.
Peter: Both sides? Of this Dodgeball match? Against these two Agents? Do I finally get Spider back?
Scientist: No. You will have to do it within your own skills.
Peter: Carrots and Honey Grahams, that sucks.
Scientist: On your marks, get set, go!
Scientist puts his hand up.
Trip: That's for starting rac...
Trip gets whacked with a Dodgeball.
Both teams try to get points with Peter trying to do it for both teams.
Peter: (One side of court) We're winning!
Peter runs to the other side of the court
Peter: We're losing!
Bobbi, Mack and Peter win.
Peter (To Bobbi): Yeah, we won, we're awesome.
Peter walks to the otherside of the Gym.
Peter (To Trip): We lost, this sucks, I hope we do better next time.
Scientist: Very good. Peter and Trip come with me.
Peter and Trip leave the Gym.
Mack, Hunter and Bobbi are standing in there.
Mack: He just left us here.
Bobbi: No one even seems to be watching us.
Hunter: So, do we get finally play Duck-Duck goose?
Bobbi: I vote no. We should wait until he comes back.
The light go off in the gym.
Mack:... I have a feeling our old Scientist buddy might be done for the night.
Coulson and Skye
Walking to the Store... we're off to see the cashier, the wonderful cashier of the store!
Skye: Almost there, you have any initial ideas for this poster?
Coulson: None really, I mean you shot down everything I said.
Skye: Like what?
Coulson: Like, when I pitched putting My Little Pony in the posters, people love that stuff.
Skye: No way sir, we're not touching the MLP fandom. That stuff is way, way too controversial.
Coulson: Whatever, let's hear your ideas.
Skye: How about one where Captain Cook is dressed like Captain America, and is beating up Ward dressed like Loki.
Coulson: That's a solid idea Agent Skye.
Skye: And we could call the hero... Captain Americook.
Coulson: Ehhh, that sounds kind of stupid, now when I hear the name.
Skye: Let's go into the store and see what we find.
They get into the store.
Store Cashier: Welcome back Skye, need some more propaganda posters? I think I got a few ideas left from my time at Union Allied.
Coulson: Again, construction company! Why propaganda?
Skye: Coulson, I told you. None of this questioning stuff, not with these guys.
Coulson: WHICH GUYS?
Skye (To Store Cashier): Yeah, we wanted to actually do more positive posters, got any ideas for that?
Store Cashier: 'course I do. How about a poster with that guy you're campaigning for, and all of the best parts of his ideas drawn in speech bubbles around him. It's creative, and fun, like comics.
Coulson: Comics are fun.
Skye: Sounds like some good ideas, we'll take ten.
May, Bakshi and Kara
Also walking to the Store... repetitive caption much?
Bakshi: That's why I love Chinese Sushi it's so unique and fresh. Especially when you have it with tiger hair on top.
May: Gross! Japan have always been the masters of Sushi, your taste is so bad.
Bakshi: How can a taste be bad, it's my own taste!
May: Why does peanut butter on pizza taste bad then? If no taste can be bad?
Bakshi: Peanut butter on Pizza is my jam, May.
May: You cannot be serious.
May facepalms.
Kara: Please! We're here.
May: Let's not waste any time then.
They're at the store.
May: Let's go make some good propaganda posters.
Bakshi: I hope this Cashier isn't an A.I.M. Agent.
Kara and May look at Bakshi weird.
May: Why do you say that?
Bakshi: Because all the random characters introduced up to this point have mostly been, I hope we don't have such luck.
Kara: Fine, let's go in now.
The trio enter the building.
They walk over to the Store Cashier only to find her, talking to Skye & Coulson
Coulson (To May, Bakshi and Kara): What are you guys doing here?
Store Cashier: Hydra Agents, stuff's about to real up in this joint!
Skye: We're the ones getting that poster. Rather you want us to or not! Get out!
May: Make us.
May gets in a fighting stance.
Skye gets her powers ready. Coulson takes out his gun.
May: You covering me?
Bakshi: Of course. YAAAAAAAA!
FitzSimmons
Location: A.I.M. Lab
Simmons: I can't understand why Captain Cook wants us to find out about why these Terrigen Crystals give powers?
Fitz: Maybe so he can get a power. Imagine if Inhumans worked for A.I.M. they would be unstoppable, Simmons.
Simmons: I know, Fitz. But that makes me think.
Fitz: What?
Simmons: Maybe we should refuse to do this, it's better than having A.I.M. take over the world. They'll probably just force us to do more work like this for them.
Fitz: We can't Simmons, for our friends sake.
Simmons: But Fitz, think of the children. All of the people A.I.M. could hurt with power like that.
Fitz: They'll manage. Have for millennia.
Simmons: What about the monkeys, Fitz?
Fitz: The... monkeys?
Simmons: Yes, all those innocent monkeys A.I.M. could control if they had an army of Inhumans.
Fitz: Err, fine I'll think of something. I don't want A.I.M. messing with anyone, especially not the monkeys.
Simmons: Thank you. I personally like Flamingos more though.
Fitz slowly looks up, giving Simmons the evil eye.
Meanwhile, Trip and Peter are back in the cages.
Trip: These cages again, come on! We're not hamsters.
Peter: Yeah, we definitely are not!
Scientist: You are to me...
Peter: Is, that a compliment?
Trip: No.
Scientists: You two know why you are being brought here?
Trip: No.
Scientist: Because you passed the tests, you know why?
Trip: NO!
Peter: Will you quit saying that? Don't say it again!
Scientist: You see, Antoine Triplett and Peter Pott.
Peter: What?
Scientist: Despite your, failures in the physical testing, and the mental for that matter, you still exhibit one valuable trait.
Trip: I really do not care.
Scientist: You remain the same throughout being put under the influence of our technology. We can train you to be better physically and mentally, but we can't for resistance to side effects, that you are born with. I'm happy to say, you two passed.
Peter: Yippie.
Trip: So, what happens now?
Scientist: We move forward with our plans. (Gets on Walkie Talkie) Cookie, the hamsters passed.
Captain Cook: Finally! Someone calls me by my chosen nickname!
At the Store, a fight breaks out.
The S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents go against the Hydra Agents.
Skye: You suck when you can't look like May.
Kara: Bite me, Tremors!
May: That name is only used exclusively for Mack.
Skye quakes the whole store.
Coulson is fighting Bakshi through the Arts and Craft section of the store.
Coulson: I'm a trained S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent, I've eaten goons like you for breakfast.
Coulson takes some glue and squeezes it on Bakshi's shirt.
Bakshi just looks at him.
Coulson:... I've got nothing.
Bakshi: I do!
Bakshi takes a paint brush and smacks Coulson in the gut with it.
May helps Kara fight off Skye.
May: What are you doing Skye, advocating for an A.I.M. tyrant betrays the ideals of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Skye: But working for a Hydra maniac doesn't?
Coulson fights back and knocks Bakshi near them.
May: I was taking the better of two evils, A.I.M. doesn't need more help!
Skye: After all Ward has done? You should know he isn't the better option here, May!
Everyone stops fighting.
Bakshi:... Lola, you're a S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent?
May: Uh, no. People just call me, "May" sometimes, you know the nickname I got in college.
Bakshi: Really?
May: Oh, what the hell, most of us here know anyway.
May takes off her wig.
May: Yes, I am Agent Melinda May and I originally was going undercover in Hydra. But I came back to help Ward, but these buffoons didn't.
Skye: HEY! We only tried to help A.I.M. so Hydra, our enemies for years wouldn't be in power. Even though Ward is totally going to be redeemed one of these days.
Coulson: Minus the nonsense at the end, Skye is completely right. We never truly had intentions of keeping Captain Cook in power.
Kara: Neither did we with Ward.
Coulson: What do you mean?
May: We wanted to overthrow him, then let S.H.I.E.L.D. come in and take over the election and Hydra. Kind of brilliant, isn't it?
Bakshi: We were going to turn on him, got to say, I have been way more surprised before.
Skye: Since Ward is probably still at the Hydra base, why don't we just confront him now, and you guys being his Agent can take over the campaign while we interrogate him and dismantle Hydra, it works so well.
Kara: Fine by me, I used to be a S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent and Ward stabbed me. I've been wanting to get even with that punk for months now.
Coulson: To the Hydra Mobile.
The S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra Agents take the Mobile to the Secret/obvious headquarters to confront Ward.
They all get into the building.
Ward: Bakshi, Kara, what are you two doing here?
Coulson & Skye walk out.
Skye: They came to their senses, and decided to help us finish you!
Ward: Skye, Coulson? (To Bakshi, Kara) You two double crossed me?
May comes out without her Lola makeup.
May: I helped them out too.
Ward: Lola, come on!? You were Agent May?
May: I was indeed. Get him.
Coulson bashes Ward against the wall by the throat with his forearm, and takes out a pistol.
Ward: No, please. I just had my eyebrows done amazingly.
Kara: That was two months ago, pretentious D-bag.
Coulson: We won Ward. It's over.
Ward: Wait! Before you take me into prison, or splatter my brains across this room.
Bakshi: Nasty!
Ward: I have to know why you went undercover in S.H.I.E.L.D. Just to take me down, my election?
Coulson: No, not that.
Ward: Than what?
May: Because were looking for Agent Trip, he's been missing for weeks now and we really wanted to find him.
Skye: I completely forgot about that. Never actually found him, or heard back from Bobbi and Hunter for that matter.
Ward: Trip is missing. Last time I checked my tabs on A.I.M. he was with Captain Cook. I might know where he is.
Coulson: Talk, Ward!
Ward: I sometimes send Bakshi and Kara over to the locations of A.I.M. bases, where they take pictures, listen in, all that jazz. That's how we knew Trip was being taken to one of them by Captain Cook himself.
Coulson: And?
Ward: And we kept hearing some name uttered by the A.I.M. leaders and the Boss man, "Project Autumn".
Kara: More like what I heard from them. Thanks for the credit Hydra boss.
Skye (To Ward): Project Autumn, what's that?
Ward: I don't know. But we both have beef with A.I.M. and even though we're on different sides Trip is my friend. We can work together and try to find them.
May: He knows where the base is. It also doesn't look like he has much of a choice with the matter.
Coulson: Fine.
He lets go of Ward.
Skye: One step closer to redemption Ward. Good job!
Skye hugs Ward.
Ward: Please, don't make me regret this.

Coulson: We'll return in a moment.
Fitz and Simmons are still working on finding out about the Terrigen Crystals.
Simmons: See anything, Fitz?
Fitz: Mostly just shards of Kree crystals.
Simmons: Well, that's mostly a given.
Fitz (sarcastically): Haha.
Simmons: Wait, I found something. I think I know why these give Inhumans Supernatural abilities.
Fitz: How do they do it, Simmons?
Simmons: The crystals have little pieces of organic beings inside of them which if connected to a Human tissue in just the right code will give powers. But if the code isn't big enough they turn to stone, like you saw when non-Inhumans try to touch it.
Fitz: But why can it only work on those who were experimented on with Inhumans genes?
Simmons: Ah, a good question. The Inhuman genes give bigger codes that they can connect to, which is why they get powers and needed it through experiments by the Kree.
Aldrich Killian walks in, with Spencer and Greggie by his side.
Aldrich: Very good, Jemma Simmons: You're both very smart when you work together.
Fitz: You! The fake Mandarin guy? You're behind all this, why?
Aldrich: I'm the leader of A.I.M., Fitz. Who did you expect?
Simmons: We're not doing anything for you.
Aldrich: You don't have to do anything else. I listened in on your convo and understand how this all works, our plans will still be going in order, as expected.
Aldrich takes the Crystal with a special gloved hand and walks out.
Aldrich: Spencer, watch these two.
Spencer: Of course, Boss.
Aldrich walks out, while Spencer guards him.
Simmons: You won't get away with this!
Aldrich (Camera Close up): I already have!
All New, Next Time
The Agents are going to war.
They all grab guns from the Hydra arsenal.
Coulson: It's time we confronted A.I.M. and saved our own.
Skye: This selection is lame!
Ward: Yeah, I've been trying to go to the weapons store for ages now, but I've been so lazy.
Trip and Peter are tied up to experimental tables.
Scientist: Have you ever heard of Project Autumn?
Peter: Nope.
Scientist: Again, rhetorical question.
Fitz and Simmons are stuck in the lab with Spencer.
Fitz (To Spencer): So, do you like Board Games?
Spencer: No.
Simmons: Who doesn't like Board Games?
While the finale goal is beginning to immense.
Aldrich Killian and Captain Cook are looking at a container full of serum in the middle of a huge laboratory.
Aldrich: This is what we've been working for Captain Cook, all in this container.
Captain Cook: What "we've been working for" looks icky.
