41) Nightmare II
"This is a nightmare," Nick Fury muttered to Maria Hill. "Coulson is dating a potential Hydra agent – and a very high-ranking one, at that, and the rest of the team aren't doing much better." He looked away. "I might've made a mistake – a series of mistakes, even – after the battle of NYC. I only hope that we can fix them, before it is too late."
42) Promise
"We will get through this, Nick, together," Maria Hill replied. "This I promise." She looked away. "Or we will all die – but still together…"
"Worst pep talk that I've ever heard – but it's also the best that I've heard," Nick replied. "Thank you."
43) Arrangement
"I think we should come to some sort of an arrangement," Mack told Tamsin. The latter nodded and made her pitch. Mack blinked.
44) Celebration
"So, you are pregnant," Simmons told the Valkyrie, (not knowing that she was a Valkyrie, BTW). "So, is it a cause for celebration or what?"
45) Missile
"Ward," Daisy looked into the washroom's mirror. "You used to be a robot, maybe even a missile of – I don't know what. Of super-spying, maybe? But now, you are not. What has happened?"
Ward, who actually heard Daisy's monologue even though he was not supposed to, did not react.
For one thing, he did not know exactly how to.
46) Importance
"S.H.I.E.L.D. used to be an organization of some importance," Melinda continued her rumblings to Lance and Bobbi. "How did it end up down to us, down to this?"
"It's a mystery," Bobbi confessed, (after exchanging a look with Lance). "Want to hear our theory?"
Melinda nodded, magnanimously. Lance, on the other hand, had an issue with 'his Bobbi' again.
47) Alone
"Do you want to be left alone?" Kara asked Grant. She was in the process of coming over to him, when she saw Grant's face and had a partial change of mind.
"Absolutely not," Grant made an inner decision of some sort already. "Kara, do you want to talk?"
48) Meditation
"You want to offer me a part-time job?" Tamsin blinked, as she looked at the FitzSimmons, (who were feeling somewhat uncomfortable themselves). "I'll have to meditate on it."
"Really?" Fitz blinked in his turn. Simmons slapped him.
49) Inducement
"…And we didn't even have to use any inducement!" the FitzSimmons told their closest (geographically speaking) co-worker – Lincoln, who actually looked somewhat confused.
"Does S.H.I.E.L.D. even have inducements?" he asked them.
"Well…"
50) Everything
"Just so that you know – S.H.I.E.L.D. will be everything for you, or it just won't work in the long run," Grant explained to Tamsin as he and Kara listened to their friend.
"Oh?" Tamsin grew thoughtful. "Please, go on!"
