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.

When Vision dies and takes the stone with him, Thanos just said nope and turn the time back for 10 seconds. Obviously this is the timeline where he stayed dead.

What we call English is just intergalactic common. Earth is one of the rare places which has multiple languages.

Just never question that. The only time that question was answered in a satisfying way was in "Accidental Space Spy".

That was quite good. But that May fight was a bit hard to follow visually. I guess it's because they are both thin woman dressed in black with roughly the same hair length.

I want space crew back on earth and meet up with Deke again. I'm not one to speculate, but for some reason, I feel like it could be possible that deep down, Deke might have feelings for Daisy.

"Two percent!"


Also RIP new guy. You died doing what you loved most!

How does that work? Does it just block the key combination, if so, you could just use snipping tool or other programs. If Hulu somehow blocks all of that, it might know a bit to much about your computer.

Fitz is right! Locking your bad emotions into a toy box from childhood with no intention of ever talking about them is very English.

But he's really bad with children. Mocking a little girl's lack of knowledge about spectral theory is deeply hurtful. Maybe that's what will have driven his daughter to marry some space goon and give birth to a Deke!

More to the point, having just watched Captain Marvel, aliens looking like humans seems to just be a thing in the marvel universe.

That's also how it works in comics, even though you don't need to save money on special effects there. I guess it's so the aliens look more attractive?

Last season was pretty great, but this year is giving me the same joyously comic vibe as S4. Aliens, clones, fire breathing bikers, it should be completely absurd but everything is done with just the right level of seriousness, it's funny, but never silly.

Kinda hoping Fitzsimmons go on their own little drug tour during their journey home.

I didn't really like last season that much and I think that this season is an improvement for those stated reasons.

I like her design, but I liked doofy Davis more.

Come to think about it, why was Izel just napping when she was possessing him? Did she want to avoid conversation? Just imagine her pretending to sleep, while Piper kept nagging and pushing Davis, before putting a silly hat on him.

So, unless this is some diverting timeline, this would be early 1931. (Fun fact: Constructing the Empire State Building took only one year.)

Any guesses what they would want to do at this particular point in time? According to their internal logic, they can't actually change the past, so what could be the aim here.

Roughly, how old would Peggy Carter be at this time? I want to see Gemma drop her serious facade and become a swooning fangirl, when they happen to meet teenage Peggy.

You're both slightly off, Simmons did say that it was the tallest building in the world and there was also construction equipment around the top of it because it was still being built.

Yeah, it's still being built, but almost finished, so it would be 1931, since that place was pulled up between 1930 and 1931.
Unless they rebuilt the scaffolding for maintenance, I guess.

But then again, I might think about this more than the writers did.

Daisy ; You're a nazi

Daisy : SHIELD Manual Page 1 "Hydra are Nazis".

I love that exchange. Yea maybe hydra predates Nazis but they did work with him, and that makes them nazis.

Hydra grifted the Nazis and embezzled their resources for their own schemes.
I don't actually believe that, but moral question: Is it okay to work with Nazis to steal from them?

This isn't entirely different from how Endgame described time travel.

These costumes look awful. People did run around like that, but I really dislike that style.

What a snipe. Bitching about the clothing trends of early last century.

Quick sidebar: why exactly are the Chronicom's trying to destroy SHIELD again? Something about a home planet, yeah?

And where did this time travel technology come from?

I've completely lost the plot on what's going on here, hate to say it.

Their home planet was destroyed and they want to get earth instead. That happened after a violent fraction took over and everyone with a job like Enoch was conscripted as a hunter.
They consider SHIELD a valiant foe, so they want to cheat and mess with time to nip it in the bud. Since they take note of every event in time, they know which threads they have to pluck, for maximum effect.
The Chronicoms seem to just have had that technology, but the old regime forbid it's use.
SHIELD has their time travelling technology from a Simmons who spent a considerable time on it and went back to catch up with them.

I gotta say, Deke really managed to melt into the main cast quite well. Last season, he was more of a weirdo outsider, everyone treated as a liability. Now he has a bit more rapport with his teammates and can contribute stuff.
Maybe it's just the fact that Fitz isn't around to openly disdain him.

"Our beautiful daughter married some space goon and gave birth to a Deke."
By the way, what happened to Deke's mom? I vaguely remember she was sort of already around when last season ended. Is it implied that Jemma gave birth and left the baby with Fitz in the mean time?

Was that the same cross which the agents used to play a fatal game of hot potato? I don't actually remember the exact circumstances, but there was a vision where the one who had it would die in a space shuttle and it kept switching hands.
That thing was cursed!
