Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (2013–…): Season 3, Episode 2 - Purpose in the Machine - full transcript
Fitz and the team enlist the aid of an Asgardian to unlock the secrets of the ancient monolith that swallowed Simmons, and Agent May is at a crossroads in her personal and professional life.
Previously on "marvel's
agents of s.H.I.E.L.D."...
A team centered around people
with powers?
Daisy: There exists a small
percentage of the population
With a dormant alien gene.
There's a chemical compound
that activates this gene.
And you, joey,
are one of the first people
To come into contact
with it.
No leadership means
nobody giving orders,
And that sure as hell
includes you.
Aah!
I'm done flying solo.
I miss having a team
around me.
Coulson:
I miss her, too.
I'm having a hard time
accepting it -- all of it.
I-i'm on my third hand.
May took off on vacation
and never came back,
So i lost
my right hand, too.
We need to say goodbye.
Jemma would want us
to do that.

Do someth-i-i-i-ing!

May our gifts see you
through the journey.

What if

[ growling ]
[ manzini screams ]
Will he come back?
Our best minds
are working to understand this.
But as far as we know,
in all of history...
No one
has ever returned.
Daisy: I think
joey's a real candidate.
[ scoffs ] sure.
He's inhuman.
But...Doesn't meet
my criteria.
He's a decent guy,
and you know it.
Getting that unit up and running
is priority.
Yeah, but it doesn't mean
it has to be a rush job.
Look, dr. Garner will make
his recommendation.
And it will be
the same as always --
Three months observation and
counseling before reassessment.
He's as much of a buzzkill
as you are.
[ chuckles ]
And if you haven't
been keeping score,
Our team's down
to three musketeers.
May and simmons
are gone.
Fitz might as well be,
bobbi's on the dl.
And from what i hear,
hunter's planning to leave.
Yeah, but not for good.
He's got a score to settle.
It's fitz!
Fitz broke
into containment!
♪♪
[ screaming ]
Fitz!
Fitz, get out of there!
Are you crazy?
Close it! Close it!
I got it!
[ all gasping ]
[ click ]
damn it, fitz.
I had to know --
had to -- had to know --
I already lost simmons
to that thing.
I cannot afford
to lose you, too.
Trying to
get yourself killed?
Sorry.
[ sighs ]
I won't give up.
I can't give up.
None of us want to,
fitz, but...
Fitz, you tried.
Okay? You tried your hardest.
Everybody knows that.
No.
I missed something.
I m...
I missed something.
[ breathing heavily ]
What is that?
Proof.
♪♪
Sand.
Not just sand --
impossible sand.
The monolith's case
is a clean room.
There's nothing in there
but that rock. Not even dust.
Unless you blast it open
with a shotgun
And contaminate
everything.
That's not
what this is.
Okay, the sand itself --
not unusual.
Mostly silicone-dioxide
particles just like on earth.
But you're saying this sand
is not from earth?
Sir, carbon dating
shows that --
It predates the earth
by a billion years.
♪♪
So you think the rock
is a portal?
No. No,
i'm proving that it's a portal,
Okay, to another planet,
a-a very old planet --
A crack in space-time
that carried simmons away...
And carried
the sand back.
Which means...
She's out there.
But it's been months.
Yeah?
She could be long gone from
wherever this thing dropped her.
Yeah.
She could be dead.
Yes.
But we're gonna find out,
aren't we?
Yeah.
You're damn right.
Yeah.
Okay, fitz,
what do you need?
Uh, uh, well, uh,
more historical data.
People have studied this thing
for centuries.
I need an expert
on quantum mechanics
And einstein-rosen
bridge theory,
And a --
a sandwich would be nice.
I might have an idea --
about the other things.
You two, stay with
our new inhuman guest.
Be here
for dr. Garner's assessment.
Building that team
is still the priority.
What did i say?
Bobbi --
I'm on this with fitz.
Yeah, haven't you been on this
with fitz the whole time?
Hiding his trip
to morocco,
Covering for him
on a constant basis?
Have i?
And you know
where you're going.
Coulson would be pissed
if he knew what you had planned.
Part of our agreement.
He won't sweat the details,
and i won't share them.
You really think ward's
back with hydra?
Damn it. I want to
go after him with you.
You're still
on the mend.
Plus, you've been undercover
with hydra,
And that face
makes an impression.
The rest of you
makes a bloody statement.
[ beep ]
you like me
stuck here in the lab.
[ chuckles ]
too bloody right.
[ beep ]
you're missing half a lung
Because you took a bullet
ward intended for me.
Nearly bled out
in my arms.
If you
being in the lab
Means i never have to see
something like that again,
I'm all for it.
Bobbi,
you want to fly?
Desperately.
Good.
Here's our destination.
Who's professor randolph?
This monolith has been studied
for centuries.
Well, randolph's actually been
on the planet
For those centuries,
And he's traveled through space
in a portal
And he's also an alien.
So he's got a lot
going for him.
Don't die out there.
And, hunter...
Make sure he does.
[ tires squealing ]
[ screaming ]
Hell of a machine,
kebo.
Built for precision,
speed...
[ screaming continues ]
...Designed to handle flawlessly
under any conditions.
But carmine here bought it
as a status symbol to show off.
Never opened it up,
denied it of its true purpose.
[ squealing continues ]
Old hydra's full of guys
like him --
Soft, entitled,
Mistaking wealth for success,
privilege for power.
Their greed splintered hydra
into a thousand pieces.
Their time is over.
Time for
a leaner generation.

These people have proven
themselves in blood.
Did you see
how they didn't even flinch?
Now's your chance to prove
you still have purpose.

So, tell me...
...Where's the kid?
I'm sorry.
I can't help you.
Can't or won't?
Potato, puh-tah-toe.
And your reason?
The nightly news, cities flying
into the atmosphere,
Government task forces,
And now the public is freaking
out about alien outbreaks.
Pretty crappy time to be
on earth if you're not a local,
So i am staying low.
And of course [chuckles]
there is my current situation.
Destruction of property,
public drunkenness.
Yes, well, asgardians
can generally hold their drink.
It's just, well, one night
i tried to hold all the drinks.
Asgardians
are also strong, right?
You could easily
break out.
What? And miss dinner?
[ chuckles ]
Oh, no. Yes, norse prisons
are surprisingly evolved --
Decent food, comfy bed,
extensive library,
And no attention
being drawn to me.
Come back in a few months,
why don't you?
Maybe then
i'll be in the mood.
We don't have
a few months.
And neither do you.
I don't have to remind you
that i saved your life,
Though i did just mention it
in case you forgot.
But i'd still
have no problems
Contacting those task forces
you mentioned.
I bet they'd go bonkers
to have a real-life asgardian
To dissect
in their labs.
I don't know how comfy
you'd be there.
Why, agent coulson...
...Are you
threatening me?
I wouldn't call it a...
Well, yeah,
i guess i am.
That's absolutely
a threat.
You're different now.
You know that?
One must accommodate the times
or things get messy.
What's with the hand?
Things got messy.
Well...
You'll have to cover
my release.
And if there is a portal, which
i will have to see to believe,
You are diving into
very dangerous waters here.
[ exhales sharply ]
all right.
Well, it's not like
you're giving me any choice.
[ alarm blaring ]
He did it.
[ chuckles ]
♪♪
Good to see you,
dr. Garner.
Hmm, enjoying the use
of the private jet?
It's very helpful.
Thanks.
Those jump seats aren't made
for transcontinental trips,
I'll tell you that.
Are you hungry?
I can have something
whipped up for you.
That would be great.
Thanks.
Anything to drink?
Daisy,
trying to butter me up?
What,
are you not hungry?
Hey, look, my job
is to keep everyone safe.
Not just potential recruits,
but you, as well.
Bribery's not gonna
get this guy approved
for the team any faster.
Wouldn't know, because you
haven't approved anyone yet.
[ clears throat ] well,
here's, uh, joey gutierrez.
Yeah, i was reading his file
on the flight --
Liquefies metal.
How's he holding up?
Well, he's terrified.
That's
a healthy response.
What about you two?
How are you guys doing?
No, no. Unh-unh-unh.
You are not getting me
on the couch today, doc,
Unless it's a conversation
between friends.
That's all i meant.
Great. How's may?
Where is she?
Is she ever coming back?
You should
ask her yourself.
Well...I would
if i knew where she was.
[ sighs ]
no, no, no.
You don't watch
where the ball goes.
Then how
would i find it?
You're usually very good at
things like this -- a natural.
Yeah, well, there's nothing
natural about this game,
And your comments after
every swing make it super fun.
You'll get hooked.
You'll see.
All right,
fair's fair.
10 shots for me,
5 reps for you.
That's why we're here.
Work that hip.
You don't have to worry
about my rehab,
And that's not
why you're here.
I may not be a spy,
but 20 years with your mother
Has taught me
to pick up on things.
You're not here
because you care about me.
Oh, now i don't care
about you.
I didn't say that.
I said that's not
why you're here.
Come on, mellie.
You -- you take a trip
to honolulu with andrew...
It was maui.
...And you come back
the daughter of the year.
Something is not right.
[ sighs ]
All right,
i'll figure it out for myself.
[ birds chirping ]
Well,
i hate to disappoint,
But it looks like
your regular, old --
Oh.
How often
does it do that?
It's random.
No. No, no, no, no.
It may seem random.
But...Something
is clearly triggering it.
I've checked it against tides,
relation to the sun, rotation --
On this planet.
So you have no idea
how to control it.
Why come to me?
I'm no
interstellar-travel expert.
I've never even studied
gravitational lensing
Or zero-point
energy fields
Or quantum-harmonic
oscillation theory.
Yet you know all those words
you just said.
And you're scared
of portals.
You're scared of being dragged
back home through a portal.
So i think in your
drunken stumble through history,
You've probably investigated
every story involving one.
And i've seen you
eyeing all of your exits,
My knee brace, wondering if
you can get away with it.
The only reason you came with us
was to confirm its existence.
And destroy it.
You'll have to
go through me.
And i could.
Literally.
But, then, i don't know
what amazon woman
And robot hand
are capable of these days,
So i will help you
get her back.
I'm not entirely heartless.
But if i do,
I want your word that
we will demolish this portal
And no one
passes through it again.
I'll sleep better at night.
Good.
Well, i've investigated
a lot of these wormhole rumors,
But that's all they were --
rumors.
None have panned out.
So we know nothing
of its origin.
Kree maybe.
And this parchment
was found with it.
Well, hello.
♪♪
I've seen this.
It's a common
hebrew word.
Yes.
What else do we know,
mr. Fitz?
Uh, well, the monolith changed
hands a lot -- germanic tribes,
Spent the hundred years' war
in france.
But before the napoleon era,
it was moved again.
I lost track of it
somewhere in --
england.
Yeah.
How did you know that?
Because i have seen this word
carved into the walls
Of a castle in gloucestershire,
england, in 1853.
To the plane!
W-- am i allowed
to say that?
Let's all go to the plane,

Yes. Yes, yes.
I came here
for a costume ball --
That was the pretext,

Found it all

a fun party.
The carvings?
Oh, right, right.
Of course.

The same as the scroll --
"death."
"maveth."
Yeah, one of its translations is
actually "death by punishment."
Could mean
"no trespassing."
A hebrew warning carved in an
english castle struck me as odd.
Out of place.
Seems ancient.
But you stopped
looking into it?
A man dressed as an owl,
of all things --
I got him drunk enough
to admit
That no travel to other worlds
was even occurring.
Just ritualistic killings.
Eh, the whole thing stunk
of half-baked satanism --
Just some fabrications
to entice new members.
And, well,
there were fire dancers.
I got distracted.
Coulson:
Here's another one.
This is why i got rid
of all the s.H.I.E.L.D. Logos
On our vehicles.

On top of our jet.

Joey gutierrez
is unfit for action
Physically, psychologically,

The man can't open a doorknob
without melting it.
My psych-101 students
could tell you he's not ready.
Maybe, in time.
We are running out of time.
Things keep coming at us.
It's like
punching a waterfall.
New inhumans, the atcu,
and this -- this new guy.
You should have seen him.
It was a whole new level.
You want to fight fire
with fire. I get it.
But you can't be reckless
about it.
All these people
who transform
Have the potential
to turn into monsters.
But the team you do have
has that danger, as well.
Sounds like there's some
sage advice coming.
Everywhere you turn,
fires are burning.
Coulson's desperate to win
on any front.
But desperation
leads to mistakes.
Giving hunter carte blanche
to get payback,
Letting fitz try to open
a portal to save one life --
These are
questionable decisions.
You should be
telling him that.
He doesn't want to hear it
right now.
He's --
he is who he is.
But you --
you're still changing.
You see something
i don't?
Horns?
You're turning
into a leader,
And i'm concerned about how
you're handling the adjustment.
Wow.
I totally just gave you
permission to analyze me,
Didn't i?
You are on a couch.
Look,
you are laser-focused
On finding members
for this team.
I understand the need
for these secret warriors.
No,
it's more than that.
When i changed,
i felt like a monster.
I needed help.
This is a chance to show people
they have a place to belong.
[ scoffs ]
it sounds stupid.
No, but what
you're describing
Sounds more like
a halfway house.
I'll gladly
help you build that.
My mother created
a halfway house for inhumans,
And it was not enough.
I -- i want inhumans
taking action with s.H.I.E.L.D.
To see that being different
can mean making a difference.
Charlie:
[ chuckling ] whoa.
You chop

I think she chopped
her vegetables like that
As a warning to me.

You left the kitchen window

Paranoid -- a quality you share

You see her much?
Mm, she calls me now and then
to see if i'm still living.

He said

What?
He didn't say that.
Did he say that?

I'm struggling to come to terms

And losing my sense of self

but we're not totally following.
The room
is a speaker.
The machine
is an amplifier.

to fix the machine?
No.

We don't have to.

I can do it.
I can open

Yeah.
If the point of the machine
was to resonate the room
At a certain frequency,
i can do that.
And you
can replicate it?
Kind of drilled
into my brain.
And it could kill you. How long
do you think you can hold it?
Maybe a minute.
If it's too much,
you pull back.
I can't lose you,
too.
I got this.
Here we go.
Camera and data sensors
are hard-lined back to us
Through a cable --
no signal loss that way.
If daisy can hold it, we'll get
a visual of the other side.
That's what we're looking for.
All right, you listen to me.
You take care
of yourself.
We lose that probe,
nobody cares.
Uh, i'm confused.
