Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (2013–…): Season 6, Episode 9 - Episode #6.9 - full transcript

Previously on "Marvel's
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D."...

MAY: He says he's over 100 years old.

He's hunting creatures
called the Shrike.

Their creator is coming.
Earth will be destroyed.

Possibly by Sarge.

And he won't stop
until he eliminates me.

Where is it? Where's what?

DAISY: The bomb. One that'll
leave a crater 200 miles wide.

When Izel lands,

I'm gonna blow her and her black
tower of death into oblivion.

You are not leaving
until it's dismantled.



Snowflake, I'm sorry.

No!!

There's a plan. Now calm down.

[ICER DISCHARGES]

Sir, there's a large, unidentified
object approaching Earth.

It seems to be headed
towards the rendezvous point.

What's the call, sir? Standing by.

Six minutes till impact.

MAN: We're evacuating civilians
from the blast zone radius.



Local law enforcement is on standby.

Tell me they can slow down that truck.

Negative. No units in range.

All right, Davis, how close
can we get to that rig?

Not very. The Zephyr's too big.
Our wake could topple them.

What about the Quinjet?

You think you can extract them in time?

Trust me. That's what I do.

All right. Go ahead.
Prepare the Quinjet.

You heard the plan.

Get in range until Yo-Yo can deploy.

All right, copy that.

After all this, Sarge is
making a sacrifice move.

It doesn't add up.

He doesn't sound like someone
who would play the martyr to me.

Yeah.

So, what are we missing?

Jaco and I will take the bridge.

Pax, you lock down the engine bays.

Then we get this ship out of here
before the warhead blows.

Sounds great. Except for
the glaring flaw in the plan.

Enlighten me.

That fast lady... how are
we supposed to stop her?

The girl with the mechanical arms

can achieve abnormally high velocity,

which can be an abnormally
large pain in the ass.

Come on.

How long we been doing this?

Shelter charges.

I haven't seen these in a while.

Once the field goes up,
nobody gets in or out.

Doesn't matter how fast.

Careful, Pax.

These things run hot, remember?

Remember?

That image scarred me for life.

I mean, not as badly as the guy
who got his face fried off,

'cause he's dead, but still.

What about Snowflake?

Sorry, Jaco.

She couldn't make it out in time.

But we owe it to Snow
to see this through.

so...

... what do you say we go get
ourselves a new spaceship?

She'd like that.

We're five minutes out.

How's it going with the comms?

[THUNK]

Swimmingly. Couldn't be better.

Been at this for hours, and I
still can't transmit a signal.

- [CABLES CLATTER]
- All right. We'll keep trying.

We may have better luck closer to the...

Fitz.

I found the crew.

Gathering silently.

Staring into the middle distance.

That's not normal.

To... state the obvious.

Are they infected?

Some... alien microorganism?

Maybe it's one of your
little puff parties.

Nah, I don't think so.

They lack joy.

Well, whatever that is, we
cannot let that reach Earth.

[SIGHS] Pathogen or
parasite, before we land,

we'll have to try to determine
the cause and the...

I think I found the cause.

Ready for arrival?

[EXHALES SHARPLY] Can't wait. [CHUCKLES]

Izel, d-does the crew
seem to be feeling okay?

Well, they're not feeling anything.

We agreed that these rogues
were all mindless fools, right?

So I gave them a higher purpose.

[CHUCKLES SOFTLY] How generous of you.

What... What purpose
do you mean, exactly?

Are you afraid you're
gonna end up like them?

Oh. No, I wouldn't dream of it.

You underestimate your value.

More than you've already paid?

You have no idea how rare it is

to find intelligent beings
like you in this galaxy...

someone to talk to who
sees the possibilities.

Which is why I need
your Terran expertise.

Earth... has possibilities?

Wait until you see what
we've built on your planet.

♪♪

Just because I'm at the top of my game

doesn't mean I can
defuse alien explosives.

I need more time, okay?

Three minutes till collision.

How's it looking?

Like we have three minutes to live.

SNOWFLAKE: Everything's fine.

My consciousness will
melt into the cosmos,

I'll merge with the infinite...

Babe. Babe! Babe,
babe, babe, babe, babe.

Let's... Let's not talk
about the infinite right now.

Let's just talk about this bomb.
So, what do you know about that?

[EXHALES DEEPLY]

Nothing.

Just that the slightest
impact causes it to split

the tiniest unit of matter in half,

which makes a big noise.

That's an atom bomb.

You just described an atom bomb!

I hear it's pretty.

- Do you know what that means?
- It means I'm in over my head.

Okay. Deke, focus.

You've reverse-engineered
alien garbage your entire life.

I need you to not screw up right now.

But this could vaporize entire cities!

Hey! Look at me, okay?

This is very hard,

but if there's anyone
who can do it, it's you.

Deke Shaw. Yeah, you're right.

Okay, Deke.

Time to dazzle.

Okay, Rodriguez is
clearing the fuel line.

Unh!

Unh-unh.

Let me guess.

You didn't see this one coming.

I knew you had an exit strategy.

Be thankful.

In a few moments, the threat
to your planet will be vaporized

We're not out of this yet.

Oh, buzzkill. No shiatsu for you.

We're still stuck with a live nuke

and whatever else is out there.

And imagine what happens
when Sarge notices

it didn't go boom.

What just happened?

Why the hell didn't the bomb go off?

Did you remember to
calibrate the firing rod

to the new telemetry?

This is not my first warhead.

[BREATHING HEAVILY]

It's been destroyed.

We're in danger.

And now you are, too.

Were you aware that my
tower would be attacked?

No. Hey, a-absolutely not.

We... We have no idea
what's happening on Earth.

Perhaps I overestimated
your intelligence.

Wait. We... We don't know
what happened on the ground,

but we have friends who will help.

I don't think you understand
the consequences if they cannot.

I promise. We just need a few
more minutes with the comms.

Yeah. Then we'll be able to reach them.

Make contact. Now.

While you can still talk.

hostile than I thought

maybe we should regroup with
our people on the ground first.

Stay out of this.

It's not just my team.

Snowflake's down there, too.

Maybe you don't get how this works.

You're the hostage.

So shut the hell up
until I ask you to talk.

JACO: Maybe it's not a bad idea.

We could use Snow's help.

Not when we're this close.

What do we always say?
No one slows us down.

You say that.

Snow's not "no one". She's
been with us for years.

Coulson?

I got a message.

I destroyed your tower,

Ah.

So you finally remember my name.

Come for me,

and I'll help you remember yours.

You said he was dead. Can't be him.

Then why does it sound
exactly like Coulson?

Seems you're still not
sure what to call yourself.

I never put much stock in names.

I prefer actions.

And yours are lacking.

Last I checked, I took down your crew.

Almost got you, too.

All you had to do was
destroy the entire planet

in the process.

You'd already infected Chronyca
by the time I got there.

I severed the limb, stopped the spread.

Oh! A hero.

What is it you always said?

People fantasize about
doing something heroic,

but in the end, they
save their own skin.

Whose skin are you saving now?

Just the one you're wearing, I hope.

Come see me and find out.

I will.

It's time for you to come to your senses

or to a close.

I don't want to destroy you,

but if I must...

That's funny. I can't wait to kill you.

Are you sure?

Dead certain.

Tell me... why is that?

Because you robbed me of my family,

the woman I love, my home.

And then you took the
one thing I had left...

my memories of them.

It's not that I stole your
memories, Sarge.

It's that you never
had any to begin with.

We knew someone who
sounds just like him.

must be some explanation.

How many beers have you had?

N-No, it's... it's not that. It's...

Uh, t-there are, um...

situations that, uh...

will, um...

will get complicated, no
matter how hard you try...

Mack.

Today, we survived.
It's been a good night.

Let's not...

I screwed up.

With you.

I screwed up.

Okay.

We've been through hell and back...

both of us.

And... I figured if...

if I could get you off my mind,

then that would help me be a...

a better Director.

You know, clear-headed, even-handed.

And... did it?

I don't know.

'Cause you're always on my mind.

And today, when they took over Z1

and you weren't there...

I never for a moment
worried you weren't safe.

In fact, I knew you would be.

I always told you not to worry about me.

I know.

And you were right.

I'm not asking for forgiveness now.

Just, uh...

... just a chance to earn it.

Eventually.

All right, um...

Good night.
