[ PRESENT DAY ]

That bag owe you money?

Just trying to get back to my old routine.

[panting]

[music stops]

It's quiet here in the mornings.

Less strangers in suits running around.

Well, you should make room in that routine for, uh...

What's the word in English?

Bureaucracy.

Mace is gonna want to grill you about your time off.

Yeah, he already has.

Trying to set up meet-n-greets or whatever that is.

So maybe we should get our stories straight about that night.

How much do they know?

Not much.

Coulson had just stepped down, and we thought we'd never see you again.

[ SEVERAL MONTHS AGO ]

Director Mace is running a bit late. You can wait here for him.

[ ACCESS FAIL INSUFFICIENT CLEARANCE ]

[speaking Spanish]

Not quite the same as it used to be, is it?

♪

Don't know why you hold on to that thing.

It's my good-luck charm.

I heard Mace was calling you in.

You're signing the Sokovia Accords.

It's a big step.

Yeah.

One you never made me take.

Secret Warriors, you said.

Whatever happened to "secret"?

New boss, new rules.

I miss the old boss. [chuckles]

Think of it this way... now you work with me instead of for me.

Mm, that doesn't make me feel better.

I know... it's a lot to get used to, but I think it's progress.

With S.H.I.E.L.D. going public again, the new Director needs everyone... especially Inhumans... on his side.

And on his list.

I thought America was all about freedom.

When I use my powers, it should be my choice.

Which is a thing I want to talk to you about.

I've been tracking this criminal from my country.

This man, he, uh...

Hey.

Take it to Mace.

That's the procedure now.

Guy's got it hard enough without me stepping on his toes.

But you're the one I trust.

But I had to that trust.

Give him a chance.

All that man wants is to be liked, believe me.

Here.

To remind you you're not just giving something up, you're joining a team.

They handed those out at the formation of S.H.I.E.L.D.

That one in particular... belonged to Agent Peggy Carter.

I can't.

Thank you, but I can't take this.

Then just hold on to it for me.

I'll only lose track of it on the Zephyr.

[sighs]

Strange to think I'm gonna be sleeping on a plane again.

And I honestly don't think Mack will fit.

[chuckles]

The base won't be the same without you two.

I hope you find her, sir.

Me too.

[ COLONEL VICTOR ESCAPES FROM PRISON ]

Yo-Yo: I was angry and reckless. I couldn't let the man who k*lled my cousin walk free.

[g*nshots]

But I had no idea what he'd stolen... or how dangerous he'd become.
