Episode 14: Cook v. Ward
MadTitan427 walks out on stage in front of all the Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. cast members.
MadTitan427: So, hehe. It's been awhile.
Everyone: Booo!
Coulson: Hack
Skye: You suck!
Fitz: wanker
Simmons: Lazy fool!
Mack throws a tomato.
MadTitan427: Yeah, yeah. I know that I was gone for a really long time.
Bobbi: Try 7 months.
MadTitan427: Don't get fresh. As I was saying, I know I was gone for a long time but realized I had an duty to finish this project, with dignity.
Ward: That's a little bit of an overstatement.
MadTitan427: Good point, you guys lost all your dignity after that cooking episode.
May: Preach!
Skye: But why come back now?
Hunter: Skye, Skye, let's ask the more serious questions. For example, can Ajax soap be used as glue for my toy train?
Bobbi: Facepalm
Mack: Oh jeez, I did not miss this.
MadTitan427 (To Hunter): Uh, no. So yeah, let's pick up where we left off. Just like I never abruptly halted the entire series for almost half a year.
May: Just get on with the show already!
MadTitan427: As you wish, roll the previouslies. A.K.A. the segment when the viewer zones out and/or checks their phone.
Coulson: Previously on Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Trip and Peter got captured by A.I.M.
Bobbi, Hunter, Mack and FitzSimmons join them.
Trip: Yippie. United again.
Ward is confronted in the Hydra Building.
Ward: We can work together. We hate A.I.M. too, we'll even help you get those lost Agents back.
Coulson: Oh yeah, I got caught in all this political bizz buzz I forgot all about those lost Agents.
May: I say we take the deal.
The Hydra and S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents go into the Hydramobile and crash it into the A.I.M. base.
Kara: That could've been more pleasant.
Ward: We need to split up to take this entire base.
Mack: We know who's leading all this. It's Aldrich Killian, the Iron Man 3 villain, on the top floor.
Skye: Than let's go find him and kick his ass.
Coulson (To Mack): You Bobbi and Hunter guard the elevator.
Meanwhile, Trip and Peter are being experimented on with Project Autumn
Trip: Oh no, you're gong to turn me into a drink again and blend with Peter!
Scientist: What? No. We're just going to give you powers and brainwash you.
Trip: Oh. Still, ahhh!
Peter gets Spider infused into him.
Peter: Oh yeah, I'm the fastest guy alive now!
Trip (Peter): That is beyond cringe, dude. Don't trademark that.
Coulson, Ward and Skye fight Aldrich Killian.
Aldrich: You can't win this!
He explodes while breathing fire and the roof collapses and they land in the lab.
Fitz: We need to stop that device that will give his soldier powers.
Simmons: Right. But how?
Fitz: Maybe unplugging it will work.
They unplug it and it all goes down.
Aldrich Killian (To FitzSimmons): You... destroyed my plan. Everything was for nothing.
Aldrich Killian breathes fire on the main science equipment and the building and is about to explode.
Ward: We need to get out of ASAP!
Skye: Trip, come on let's escape.
Trip: I can't, I'll just weight you down.
Bobbi: But we need to save you.
Trip: No, what we need is a heroic sacrifice. Now go!
Everyone leaves and the building also blows up. But they couldn't get to Trip or Peter in time.
Skye: Trip!
And now...
Ward, Kara, Bakshi, Skye, Coulson, Hunter Bobbi, May and Mack
Location: The Forest... viewing the destroyed A.I.M. base
Skye: I can't believe trip is gone.
Fitz: I know, he was our friend.
Simmons: Our team will be that much weaker without him.
Hunter: He can't be gone. Maybe we just need to find him under these rocks.
Hunter picks up a small rock.
Hunter: Trip, are you there?
Hunter picks up another rock.
Hunter: Anyone?
Hunter sits down.
Hunter: I can't find him.
Skye: Thanks...
Ward: I'm really sorry about Trip. But we have to get back to the city soon. Tonight's election night and if I don't even show up, then my campaign is as screwed as a doornail.
Mack (To Ward): Then you need to get your sweet behind to that Election!
They all walk over to the Hydramobile, only to see it getting impounded.
Bakshi: What are they doing to the Hydramobile!?
Ward: What the hell.
Ward walks over to the driver.
Ward: What's going on here? Why are you towing away my Minivan?
Kara: Not just a minivan, Bakshi. It's a badass mobile!
Towtruck Driver: This here was parked in a handicapped spot I need to take it to the lot. You can pay 300 dollars to get it back.
Ward: What? Why on Earth is the ONE parking spot in this godforsaken facility a handicapped spot!?
Towtruck Driver: Aldrich Killian hurt his leg a couple months back. After his fight with Iron Man.
Fitz: Aldrich Killian was defeated before.
Towtruck Driver: Rules are still rules.
Ward: The one spot in a middle of a forest, to the secret terrorist's hidden base is a handicapped spot that the Towtruck company regularly visits to clear out if someone not handicapped is parked there.
Towtruck Driver (To Ward): Now you're getting it.
Towtruck Driver pats Ward on the back.
He drives away.
Towtruck Driver: See you later, buttfaces!
May: Ward, you alright with this?
Ward is slowly twitching in rage.
Eagle Icon... Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.!
Captain Cook and Campaign Crew
Location: Captain Cook's Campaign Office... also known as The Cookie Factory.
Captain Cook: Where are Coulson and Skye, they should've been campaigning for me!
A.I.M. Employee: It appears as though they've abandoned their stations on a two day long quest to get supplies for propaganda posters.
Captain Cook: You think they got lost in the store or something?
A.I.M. Employee: Unlikely.
Captain Cook: Oh no, what if they're scared and hungry in one of the three aisles there. Soldier, send a squadron into the store to go find them. It's election night and we need their posters.
A.I.M. Employee: Sigh I'll go call them in.
Captain Cook's phone rings.
Captain Cook: Go for cookie.
Spencer: It's all destroyed! The plan, Aldrich, the Inhuman genome, Project Autumn all of it! S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra must've teamed up because they sure bested us here.
Spencer is standing in front of the destroyed building.
Captain Cook: Woah, woah, slow down there, Pup.
Spencer: Can it, Cook. We lost, S.H.I.E.L.D. double-crossed us and took us down. You need to win this election.
Captain Cook: Skye and Coulson ain't working for us anymore!? Aw shucks. I can't win without them, they were the glue holding this whole campaign together.
Spencer: Well you better figure something out, are you in L.A.? I need to get there soon. Send a helicopter.
Captain Cook: Oh, about that...
Spencer: Tell me you can send a Helicopter.
Captain Cook: I can, but do I want to!?
Spencer: Yes, you do.
Captain Cook: Seems like it would cost a lot of gas.
Spencer: Send the 'copter, Cook!
Meanwhile, across from where Spencer is talking on the Phone with Captain Cook
Ward is still twitching.
Coulson: Should we... call a doctor or something?
Mack: There ain't no hospitals around here.
Mack slaps Ward.
Ward: What was that for? My car was just towed for the dumbest excuse I can think of.
Kara: Just cough up the 300 dollars and get the car back.
Ward (To Kara): I don't have any money. I didn't think I would be in this situation when I was going to fight off A.I.M. all my money is in the safe back in L.A.
Kara: Any of the S.H.I.E.L.D. folks have money?
Coulson: Nope. We all thought the same thing you Hydra "folks" did.
Ward: Of course.
Bakshi: What are we gonna do?
Simmons: Worse yet, Ward has the election. Our top priority has to be getting him there.
May: Just split the team up. A group can get the mobile and the other gets Ward to the Election.
Ward: Good idea, May. We need the Globemaster so we can get back to the city in time for the election.
Fitz: I can call it back.
Ward: Bobbi, Hunter, Mack, you three go to the lot and get the Hydramobile back.
Hunter: Car hunting, yeah! Pebbie's favorite.
Mack (To Bobbi): When did he start talking to a rock?
Ward: Me, May, Coulson and Skye will get on the Globemaster and go handle the Election.
Coulson: Can I...
Ward: No Khenan.
Coulson: But I really want to
Ward: NO KHENAN!
Coulson: Fine...fam.
Ward (To Coulson): What did I say!?
Skye: Oh, I totally forgot. We have all those supplies for the store, we can work on Ward's propaganda posters on the Globemaster.
May: Which they were originally going to used for Captain Cook's campaign.
Ward: As for FitzSimmons, Kara and Bakshi, you three can go explore the site. See if anything is unusual there.
Coulson: Also, try and find Trip's body. We should give him a proper goodbye.
Fitz: Sounds good to me.
Simmons: He deserves it.
Bobbi: We're missing something here. We have no car.
Mack: Bobs is right, how are we going to get to the lot in time we no transportation?
Ward: Simple, we'll call you a Taxi. Bakshi!
Bakshi calls them a Taxi.
Mack: Well, I guess that works.
Fitz: The ship's here.
The Globemaster lands in a convenient area in the forest with no trees or big rocks to block it.
They all get on.
Skye: Oh, FitzSimmons! If you find any really cool rocks in the rubble, save them for me.
Fitz: Okay?
The Globemaster and takes off. Bobbi, Hunter and Mack get into their Taxi.
Simmons: Let's get started.
Simmons hands them all metal detectors.
Kara: You just had these with you the whole time?
Simmons: Sigh Yes, unfortunately. Fitz here, wanted to go treasure hunting before we got captured by A.I.M.
Fitz: I just know Coulson has treasure hidden on that Globemaster!
Simmons: Look through the rubble and let's see what we can find.
They all start searching.
Bakshi: Guys.
Simmons: Bakshi, how did you find something already?
Bakshi: I think it found me.
Fitz: What? Is that a riddle or something? A piece of metal found you?
Bakshi is than walked forward by Spencer with a gun.
Spencer: Thought you could get rid of me that easily, S.H.I.E.L.D. peasants!
Simmons: Spencer! You were here this whole time?
Spencer: Yeah. Managed to survive the explosion without a scratch.
Simmons: This whole time? Wow, that lowers my self-confidence.
On the Globemaster
They're all sitting in the lounge.
Coulson: Vote for Grant Ward! No, that's wasn't good enough. Try voting for Grant Ward. No that just sounds like an informercial. You bored, vote for Ward! Wow, I want to punch myself in the face after hearing that one.
Skye: Just let the posters do all the talking Coulson.
May: You got any green pens?
Skye: Why do you need green?
May: For the boogers.
Skye: There are no boogers, May. This is supposed to be a good propaganda poster, and boogers are gross.
May: Well, I can't stop doing them now.
Skye: What have you even drawn on that side of the poster?
Skye looks and sees May side of the poster full of booger drawings.
Skye: May! What the hell is this!?
May: I got bored and I remembered how Ward called me Weezey a long time ago when I had a cold, so I got back at him by drawing boogers on his poster.
Coulson: Can we still use that though?
Skye (To Coulson): No! It's ruined now.
Coulson: But that was all of our equipment!
Skye: Exactly.
Ward: AHHHHH!
Ward walks into the room.
May: What happened this time?
Ward: Who put a literal bar of soap into the Washing Machine instead of the detergent?
Skye: Oh yeah, Hunter does that sometimes. He put Oatmeal in there last time instead of soap. All my clothes were itchy for months after that.
Ward: No one told me! Now all my clothes are ruined, I needed to wash my suit for the big Election. What am I going to wear now.
Coulson: I might have a spare suit to give you.
Ward: They were all in the wash Coulson.
Coulson: Oh, come on. Now I'm mad too!
Coulson sits down, pouting.
Skye: We have all these fabrics from the store, maybe me and May can make a suit for you.
Ward: I guess that will have to do. But don't you only have blues, greens and purples?
May: I used to tailor when I was kid, I know how to make good suits, don't worry.
Ward: You tailored as a kid?
May: Well... I had a lot of free time... and it was fun to use my hands... don't judge me Hydra Traitor!
Hunter, Bobbi, and Mack
They all get out of the Taxi.
Hunter: Thanks for the ride. Sorry for calling your radio station "Wanker Music". I'm sure Twenty One Pilots is a great band!
The Taxi Driver gives Hunter a dirty look and goes off.
Bobbi: Well, better not waste any time.
Mack (To Bobbi): Like we just did by having to listen to you saying that?
Hunter: Nobody likes a Condescending Cady, Mack.
Bobbi (To Mack): Haha.
They all walk into the lot.
Bobbi: Hello, we're here to pick up the Minivan.
Lot Owner: Which would that be, we have more than one here?
Bobbi: The one with the Octopus Icon on it.
Lot Owner: Still not specific enough.
Bobbi: Seriously? It's red, it looks like skull with eight tentacles coming out of the head. How can there be more than one of those!?
Lot Owner: Oh, that Hydra Van?
Mack: Yes, the Hydra Van.
Lot Owner: I got it over here, come on.
The Lot Owner leads Hunter, Bobbi and Mack to the Hydra van.
Lot Owner: This here will cost you about three-hundred dollars.
Mack, Bobbi and Hunter search their pockets.
Bobbi: Nothing.
Mack: I got two nickels.
Bobbi: We don't have that kind of money.
Lot Owner: Than you can't have the van back.
Hunter: Will this be a proper substitute?
Hunter hands the Lot Owner a box of Paper Clips he found in his pocket.
Lot Owner: Six-hundred dollars now, thanks to the idiot.
He still takes the Paper clips.
Hunter: Well, YOU have no class!
Bobbi (To Lot Owner): We need to get that car back!
Mack: Yeah, is there anyway we can get without paying all that cash?
Lot Owner: There is one way.
Lot Owner smirks.
Hunter: Oh, I don't like that smirk.
Mack (To Hunter): Shut up. (To Lot Owner) What is it?
Lot Owner: I have a bus that me or my boys haven't been able to pick up for a full month. Get it for me, and I'll consider your debut payed, and you can have the car back.
Bobbi: Sounds fair.
Lot Owner: You'll be driving my personal pick up truck.
Lot Owner leads the trio to the pick up truck.
Lot Owner: I'm not gonna lie, it's aged a little bit, not as well as you would hope.
He stops walking.
Bobbi: Oh crap.
The pick up truck is completely rusted and the tires are almost destroyed.
FitzSimmons, Kara and Bakshi
Location: The Rubble of the secret A.I.M. base... I got a piece of rubble in my shoe!
Simmons: Don't shot!
Spencer: I'm not gonna shot you.
Fitz: Oh, thank god!
Spencer: I'm taking you back to the other A.I.M. base to imprisoned.
Simmons:...
Fitz:... can you just shot me instead?
Kara: Wait, there are other A.I.M. bases?
Spencer: Yeah, you think Aldrich Killian didn't have contingencies if his plans went down under? Think again. We have benefactors from all over, and the re-building process will only be jump started when Captain Cook wins this election!
Bakshi: Ward is going to win!
Spencer: Please. You S.H.I.E.L.D. peasants already made propaganda for Cook's campaign. Besides A.I.M. as far as the public is concerned is just a cute, dorky little science organization. As a matter of fact...
While Spencer is babbling endlessly, Fitz inches his way closer, with each sentence.
Spencer:... Henry David Thoreau! And that's why S.H.I.E.L.D. will simply fall to the prospects of superior organizations. Any questions?
Bakshi raises his hand.
Bakshi: You do know I'm Hydra right.
Spencer: Tomato tom-a-to.
Fitz (Right up to him): Not even close.
Spencer: Woah, you're totally invading my personal space bubble.
Fitz hits Spencer over the head with his metal detector and he drops the gun.
Simmons picks it up.
Simmons: We're not going to be A.I.M.'s slaves anymore, Spencer.
Kara: How about we put you in a prison made by "S.H.I.E.L.D. peasants" and see how you like it?
Spencer: I really got to stop turning every interrogation into a monologue.
Meanwhile, on the Globemaster.
Everyone is waiting in the lounge.
Ward is trying on his new suit.
Skye: Come on, let's see how it looks.
Coulson: And how May and Skye did.
Ward walks out in a light purple suit, with a lime green bow tie and a blue undershirt.
Coulson: Oh man.
May: We are beyond screwed.
Ward: It can't be that bad (Sees in mirror) Ah! I look like a colorblind Joker wannabe, skye, why would you ever make this?
Skye (To Ward): I had to work with what was given, I'm an Artist Ward, it's what we do.
Ward: Well, I hope my points were that good people will ignore the fact it looks like I'm wearing the hides of Barney the dinosaur.
May: Barney was my childhood idol! (Puts fingers in ears) Lalalalala, can't hear you. Lalalala.
Ward: It looks like we're almost there too. Do we have time to get a replacement?
Coulson: Doesn't look like it, the Election starts in about 15 minutes, that should be the drive to the event alone.
May: Plus, I need to land this thing.
Ward: Fine, just hurry up. I don't want to be late on top of all the other shenanigans.
May lands the Globemaster in the middle of a busy street corner.
May: Good news, I found a place where I can land.
Skye: Wow. I'm the surprised the pedestrians don't notice some giant S.H.I.E.L.D. Vehicle in the middle of the street.
May: That's the magic of a cloaking device.
Outside a man is driving and suddenly crashes into the invisible Globemaster.
Man: I can't move forward. Must just be a very big cluster of air, it happens, I'll go around i
May, Ward, Coulson and Skye get out of the Globemaster.
Coulson: We couldn't have stopped outside the Stadium?
May: No. There's no room for a landing there.
Ward: If we start walking right now we can get there with five minutes to spare.
Skye: Or if we run that's 10 minutes, might be able to buy some celebratory Chocolate chip cookies from the Bake Sale.
Coulson: Sounds fair.
Everyone starts running.
Bobbi, Hunter and Mack
Location: The streets of Boise Idaho... driving one of those three-seat pick-up trucks that totally exist
Mack: Bobbi, can you drive a little faster the rust is starting to go up my leg.
Bobbi: I can't the pedal is broken.
Mack: Then how have you been driving it
Bobbi: Technically, I haven't, just been pushing really hard on the wheel and it's been moving. Which is why it took over 15 minutes to make that small right turn last street.
Hunter: Maybe Pebbie can try driving. He really has a knack for machinery.
Mack: I swear Hunter, if you mention that rock one more time I'm throwing it out of the Pick Up truck, with you still holding onto it.
Hunter: What's that Pebbie, you want to throw Agent Mack out of the pick up truck? (To Mack) Looks like the feelings are mutual.
Mack: I'd love to see him try. Damn pebble doesn't even lift.
Bobbi parks the car and sees the bus they need to tow.
Bobbi: So we need to impound that? Shouldn't be too hard.
Mack: They said no one would pick this bus up for a month, so there must be a catch.
Hunter: Maybe it's because the bus doesn't want to leave.
Bobbi: We need the engine if we're gonna move it.
Mack I can take a look when I hook the bus up to the back.
Bobbi: Thanks. I'm still amazed we got this far. I thought for sure that downhill was going to break it to pieces
Skye, Ward, Coulson and May
Location: The Election Event
They're all done running next to the Bake Sale Stand.
Skye: Oh, chocolate chip, yum
Skye quickly grabs a cookie.
She spits it all out on Coulson's shirt.
Coulson: Oatmeal and Raisin?
Skye: Oatmeal and Raisin.
Ward: I for one love Oatmeal and Raisin cookies.
May: We need to get Ward up the Election podium. The debate's gonna start soon. Captain Cook is already signing autographs.
In the background.
Voter: Captain Cook! Sign my shirt.
Captain Cook: Well of course I can, loyal voter.
He signs it.
Voter: Oh, I'm Ward/Hydra all the way. I just wanted to sell this shirt on Ebay. Thanks anyway.
Captain Cook: Well, that was bunk.
Ward gets up on the podium, Cook follows.
Captain Cook (To Ward): Didn't think you would even show up.
Ward: Well, you thought wrong.
Captain Cook: We're gonna make you pay for destroying our plans. A.I.M. never loses.
Ward: Same with Hydra. Cut off one head, two more grow in it's place. Why you think I keep Kara and Bak around?
Captain Cook: Same reason Aldrich kept me and Spencer around.
Ward: Growls
Moderator: It is almost time to begin voting. Now would be the time to give an speech to present why you would best be suited for mayor of Los Angeles, California.
Captain Cook: Fans, supporters, friends. Thank you for helping make this country and city even more amazing by participating in our great democratic system, with great traditions and great ideals, ran by great people.
Coulson (whispering): He said great four times in one sentence.
Captain Cook: To answer what this man, who I for the love of god have no idea is, asked. I love this city because of the amazing people, the brilliant natural beauty, and Hollywood baby! Woah.
Everyone cheers.
Moderator: Now for you, Mr. Ward.
Ward: Well... you know, I don't have an amazing speech planned here. But I will say this, I know me and the United States have had problems in recent times. I know Hydra has for all intents and purposes tried to dismantle and cause chaos in the very government I'm trying to now become a part of. But I learned a valuable lesson in these last couple of days. That just because somebody was once your enemy doesn't mean they always have to be. Sometimes there's potential for them to be your friend, your alley, your buddy. Who may actually serve you much better in the long run. So, Los Angeles I want to improve this city with every fiber of my being. Please let me do that and redeem myself in your eyes and to the Government of the United States. If you Stand By Me in this election, I won't let you down.
The audience cheers.
Skye (Whispering): He was looking at us the whole time. I think I'm gonna cry.
May (Balling): Going to?
At the A.I.M. Rubble
Fitz and Simmons search around.
Kara and Bakshi and working on tying up Spencer.
Fitz: Other than a bunch of Apollo bar rappers it looks like most everything was blown in the explosion.
Spencer: Except for me.
Simmons: I can't find Trip, Peter or Aldrich's body anywhere.
Fitz: Did they blow up too?
Simmons: That what I thought at first, but there's no bone residue that matches either of them.
Fitz: Do you think...
Simmons: No, it's impossible, they couldn't have all survived or anything like that.
Fitz: It is Marvel after all.
Simmons: We have Spencer over there, we can ask him.
Bakshi: Spencer, are Trip, Peter or Aldrich still alive?
Spencer: I'm not telling S.H.I.E.L.D. a damn thing.
Bakshi: Well, we tried.
Kara: Guys, the election is almost through. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm standing by Ward this time. I hope he wins this.
Simmons: I want to see!
Fitz: Me too.
They all watch live from Kara's Ipad.
The Tow-Truck in Boise.
Mack comes back inside.
Bobbi: Any luck?
Mack: I hooked it up to the car and fixed the engine. It should work now.
Bobbi presses the pedal and it zooms forward.
Bobbi: Thanks Mack, you're a lifesaver!
Hunter (To Mack): You did well, Chap. Even pebbie forgives you for being a jerk earlier.
Mack: You know what, tell Pebbie I accept.
Hunter: Good, because he wants to know if you could teach him about machines another day. (Whispering) I think it will be a great boding experience.
Mack: Now, he lost it.
Bobbi: Let's head back to the Lot.
Bobbi drives forward with the Bus being towed, when hung over people inside start waking up inside.
Party Dude: Woah, are we like, getting towed or something?
Other Party Dude: We can't shut this party down bro, we got to stop it.
They drive the Bus the opposite direction.
Bobbi: What's going on, the chain is being pulled. I can't drive forward!
Mack: There are people inside the bus. They're driving the other way, from the looks of them they've been partying in there for months.
Bobbi: That's why the other truckers couldn't pull them up.
The chain breaks and the bus drives away.
The car stops.
Bobbi:...
Mack:...
Hunter:...
Bobbi: Want to just steal the Hydramobile back?
Mack: Fine.
They go back to the lot.
Lot Owner: Where's the bus?
Bobbi: We couldn't get it.
They all get inside the Hydramobile and drive off.
Lot Owner: Hey, where do you think you're going. This is theft! Come back!
They completely drive off. Leaving him in the dust.
Lot Owner: I'll get back at those sluggers one day.
At the Election
Ward and Captain Cook are watching people come in and out of the booths.
Captain Cook: You suck, Ward.
Ward: You suck lobster tails, Cook.
Captain Cook: What?
Skye: Just give it up with the trash talk, Cook. Heckling won't do you any good.
Coulson: After what you did to FitzSimmons and Trip, plus the working with A.I.M. you're lucky we don't Karate chop you in half.
Captain Cook: You two traitors shouldn't even have the right to speak. You were working for me and my campaign, what happened?
Coulson: We saw the truth, that A.I.M. is nothing but a corrupt Hydra wannabe with plans of world domination. We're not going to let that pass.
Captain Cook: That's odd because you said the same thing about Ward a couple days ago, Just pick a side already. Honestly Coulson, your allegiances flip more than a pancake.
Skye: We do pick a side.
She stands next to Ward.
Skye: It's with Ward.
Captain Cook: So be it then, but don't be surprised when A.I.M. goes after you two.
May: I think the voting is finished.
Moderator: The votes are in. Will the two Mayoral candidates come up to the stage.
Ward and Captain Cook go the stage.
Captain Cook shots a spitball aiming at Ward, it hits the Moderator.
He gives Captain Cook a dirty look and wipes it off.
Moderator (Gritting teeth): Thank you candidates for both running. It was a good race, but we do have a winner in this envelope.
Ward: Fingers crossed.
Moderator: The winner is, Grant Ward of Hydra.
Ward: YEAH! I won! Boo yeah. In your face haters.
Ward starts dancing on stage.
Captain Cook: I can't believe I lost, A.I.M. is finished.
Captain Cook gets hit in the face by a spitball.
Captain Cook: What the hell?
He sees the Moderator quickly put a straw in his pocket and casually look the other way.
FitzSimmons Kara and Bakshi are all cheering watching on the Ipad.
Bobbi, Hunter and Mack are watching on a TV screen in a bar.
Mack: He finally won.
Hunter: No thanks to us. We were barely involved in any of that, I didn't know there was an election going until five minutes ago.
Bobbi: I called the Globemaster. They should come pick us up soon, I guess we can watch this and have a drink until then.
On the TV screen
Interviewer: Grant Ward's election seemed to be favored by a strong majority. We interviewed a civilian to find out exactly why they think that was.
The interviewer is talking to someone.
Interviewer: So Madeline, why do you think Ward won the election?
Madeline: I definitely didn't want to vote for a Hydra member to be the mayor, but those propaganda posters and slogans for Captain Cook's campaign were a deal breaker. Half of them didn't even make any sense or were just plain dumb. I think Captain Americook personally set most people over the edge.
Outside, Hunter, Bobbi and Mack hear a loud noise.
When they go check it out they see the Globemaster parked and the Hydramobile being pulled in.
Later that night.
Ward: Thanks S.H.I.E.L.D. for all your support. I know we've had our differences in the past, but I'm glad we could work together to put down a common enemy for both of our interests.
Coulson: Don't mention it Ward, I'm glad to be on good terms with you again, for now. But I have a feeling that S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra will cross paths again. I just hope you won't let it cloud your judgement, Mayor.
Ward: I hope the very same. No matter which side we're on, I'm just glad I'm not the one that has a talking pebble.
Hunter (To Mack): I'm so happy Coulson made Pebbie an Agent. He really wants to do a mission with you.
Mack: Oh jeez.
Coulson (To Fitz): What happened with Spencer?
Fitz: He's locked up. Me and Simmons plan to start asking him some questions soon.
Coulson: What about Captain Cook.
Bobbi: He escaped right after the election. But but I have a guy feeling we'll see him again.
Ward: Well, I better get back to the office with my two assistants. Thanks again.
May: I'm already regretting it. This new good guy Ward attitude is really tacky.
Ward walks to the back of the Globemaster with Kara and Bakshi while it lands in LA.
Coulson: Skye, why do you seem so happy?
Skye: Because I was right.
Coulson: What were you right about?
Skye: You made fun of me all this time for standing by Ward and thinking he was going to be redeemed. What just happened to him?
Coulson:... Oh fuc

Coulson: We'll return in a moment.
In a mysterious warehouse.
Captain Cook is sitting down speaking to someone.
Captain Cook: I don't know what to do. We lost the election, Project Autumn is disbanded, the base is destroyed. According to the plan, you're who we're supposed to go to if all fails.
The camera pans to Captain Cook talking to the real Mandarin.
Mandarin: Don't fret, James. We did manage to salvage those bodies. I'm sure we can make good use of them, uses A.I.M. would be proud of.
Captain Cook: I just don't know, did Aldrich really want the real Mandarin continue the quest for world domination.
Viper: Oh yes... me and Aldrich go way back... consider this a re-payment on his part.
Captain Cook: I guess you're my new boss then.
Mandarin: I guess I am.
