Synopsis
Enoch, an alien, leads a team of commandos to apprehend Coulson and his team after they were framed for the attempted assassination of General Talbot. While Fitz is left behind, the rest are taken to an unknown location where a white monolith - similar to the one that contained a portal to Maveth - waits for them. The monolith takes the team to an outpost in an unknown region of space, where a group of scavengers are under attack from aliens they call "roaches." One of the scavengers, Virgil, tries to explain their situation to Coulson, but is quickly knocked out by Mack when he mistakes him for an enemy. Yo-Yo and Simmons find Coulson and Mack, and the team tries to figure out what is going on. The only clue they have is an old postcard Coulson finds in Virgil's jacket. Virgil recognizes each of the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents when he regains consciousness. As he begins to explain that he studied their history, he's suddenly killed by one of the roaches. Daisy blasts the alien from behind while the rest of the team tries to get away from it. May, meanwhile, sees Deke, another scavenger moving the bodies of the roaches' victims. Believing he killed them, May attacks Deke, but he overpowers her, ties her up, and implants a device called a "metric" into her wrist.
The team finds May's jacket where the scavenger left it while they look for clues to what's going on. The outpost appears to be man-made, and they find a computer outlining plans to collect water from ice in space. If this is a human colony, then they think they must be close enough to Earth to get back. When they try to use the computer, however, they trigger an alarm that sends a team of Kree Reapers right to them. The Kree take Daisy, Coulson and Simmons to a prison, while Mack and Yo-Yo are tied up and tortured in another part of the outpost. The Kree decide to spare Mack when they think he would be better served as a fighter in "the Crater," only to turn their attention to Yo-Yo. Deke shows up at the prison with May, and convinces the Kree to let them hand over their prisoners to him. Once they're far enough from the Kree, Deke tells them Virgil hired him to swap out the team's metrics so the Kree wouldn't notice them when they got to the outpost. With Virgil dead and the team unable to cover what he's owed, Deke wants to leave the team to handle this themselves, but May grabs one of Deke's gadgets he used against her earlier to pin him to a wall.
The team splits up - May and Simmons follow Deke's directions to a ship that could send a message to Fitz to rescue them, Daisy heads off to find Mack and Yo-Yo, and Coulson stays behind to get information out of Deke. May and Simmons see the size of the Kree's operation on the outpost, leading them to believe the Kree are using the outpost as a staging ground for an impending invasion of Earth. Daisy finds her friends, and frees Mack so the two of them can fight and kill the Kree Reapers torturing Yo-Yo. Gradually, all of them come to realize that the monolith didn't take them into space, but to a future where the Earth is torn in half, and the outpost is all that remains of humanity. Mack takes another look at the postcard from Virgil's jacket, and reads the message on the back:
- Working on it - Fitz
