Enoch and Fitz-icle are floating in space when Enoch says he has to calculate Fitz's survival, then the ship they're on gets cut apart by a giant spinning beam.

ONE YEAR LATER

Piper, that one dude I don't remember the name of who shows up with Piper a lot, Daisy, and Simmons are out in deep space and get hailed by hostile aliens. Daisy beats them up, takes some fuel, and Simmons asks if they know where Fitz is.

Back on Earth, Mack and a new batch of disposable agents look at a map with some algorithm Simmons left behind. Something happens and they send May out to some coordinates. At the site, a dude walks through a wall and another guy gets stuck halfway through. The survivor shoots down May.

This needs to go in the OP

She's still jacked up on Centipede, right? She should basically have Captain America style strength and speed, which explains why she looked bored hoisting the fat alien guy in the air.

Honestly, just saying "gently caress it, we'll lag a year behind so we can react to the movies Disney stupidly won't let us know gently caress-all about" is probably the best way to handle it, so I hope it's what they do, and then Season 7 can be the final season and deal with the Snappening however much or little they want.

Or last year's time fuckery and this year's subsequent alternate reality poo poo sets the canon AoS now solidly outside of the MCU, which is fine too.

Yeah, you could just never address it ever, but that'd be kinda' weird. At least give me a loose fig leaf of "don't worry about it" in the actual text I can grasp on to.

my guess is the show's out of continuity with real life timelines, Thanos hasn't even found the Asgardians at this point, and then next season deals with Snap/Restore. Or maybe Tony just reconned everything out of existence with his Snap. Or maybe I don't give a gently caress either and should really just relax.

Well, they WERE following along the MCU since Thanos was arriving in NYC in the fifth season finale.

So, looks like they’ve jumped into a new timeline where he was stopped in Wakanda. Maybe Thor went for the head and the whole thing ended much sooner.

He never arrived, the aliens just said he was coming. It could’ve happened while he was getting his poo poo ready and hadn’t even gotten the first gem. After all the captain marvel poo poo that went down I’m pretty sure the kree are keen on keeping up with the neighbors.

It could have. We really didn't know what all shenanigans Future Fitz and Enoch got into during the span Fitz got frozen and showed up back at Earth. We know the freeze capsule came from the planet they mentioned, so theoretically in the future timeline, Fitz could have been frozen for a bit, been woken up with the ship was destroyed, got a second capsule and then frozen himself again to wait it out. Of course with the timeline saved, things will be different this time around.

Theoretically speaking jemma and Daisy’s search could’ve set off a chain reaction that caused the Federation or whatever to be in the right place at the wrong time and blast the hell out of Enoch’s ship. Enoch would’ve known about that change, as he is a sentient Chronocon, and adjusted his plans accordingly.

The actual answer, as always, is who cares. As long as it doesn’t open up plot holes big enough for the General’s war rig like Endgame did, it’s all good.

Yeah, in the episode that the Doctor comes out Fitz mentions hearing him ever since the Framework and the primary instigator for the emergence was the brain damage caused in season 1 flaring up under stress so the all the ingredients are still there.

They should mention it offhandedly and have him go :stare: as he realizes they know all his deepest darkest secrets

Also I love that Fitz is using the Doctor for powers of good. Like he gave the captain a billion chances not to fall into his trap and welp.

I imagine the Doctor screaming about how they’re all weak and he’d throw the entire crew out of the airlock. Fitz goes “:hmmyes: thanks check this out” and saves the crew while the Doctor silently goes :mad: in the background.

I thought I heard somewhere that everything so far has been pre-snap. I don't know that I'm optimistic but they did call for two seasons at once, so they very well could finish this season with the snap and address it next season.

having seen endgame if the snap never appears in AoS and the series ends without ever acknowledging it I will be 100% okay

I've been on that team since ep2.

And not so much "save" the planet they're on, but more like try to stop the spread before the fungus bird population is unmanageable. Once that happens, Team Coulson2 destroy the planet in an attempt to cauterize the spread and move to the next because they inevitably miss a few.

Honestly, my hot take is that they're antiheroes trying to stop these things and are just so jaded they don't care about murdering randos any more. We're going to end up with "Coulson is still Coulson" and mmmmmaybe Sarge will eat it just as May finally comes around to him.

This being AoS he could end up in an episode-long fight with Mad Max Mack as Lord Humongus instead, I really have no idea :shrug:

I figured it was just the warning Mack gave Keller at the beginning of the episode coming true. He said when you're involved with someone you work with in the field it effects your ability to make snap decisions, you freeze up instead of acting. You're instinct to not cause pain to someone you care about slows your thinking just enough to cause bad poo poo to happen anyway.


For the space birbs, any other comic reader getting a organic Phalanx vibe from them?

I think the Doc was making a joke when he said Sarge implanted the birb in the guy with the dagger.

Alternatively, he was looking at something literally no one on earth had before now and was thinking, “gently caress I don’t know, here’s a theory”
