Plot
While Phil Coulson and Rosalind Price are having dinner at her apartment, Grant Ward fatally shoots Price through the window with a long-distance sniper rifle, and then calls Coulson to claim responsibility, revealing that Hydra is planning to reopen the portal to the barren planet, Maveth. Evading Hydra agents, Coulson returns to the Playground and interrogates Melinda May, Daisy Johnson, Leo Fitz and Jemma Simmons about their time working with Ward on the Bus, hoping to find his weaknesses and exact his revenge.
Devising a plan to draw Ward out, Coulson enlists Lance Hunter and Bobbi Morse to help him, and orders Alphonso "Mack" Mackenzie to become acting director while he is carrying out his plan. They track down and kidnap Thomas, Ward's younger brother, from the jewelry store he works at. He cooperates fully once he understands the situation. Fitz, Simmons, and an Advanced Threat Containment Unit (ATCU) team led by Luther Banks investigate the abandoned Project Distant Star facility, but they are attacked by Giyera, who kills Banks and his agents and abducts Fitz and Simmons, bringing them to the Gloucestershire castle, where Hydra is repairing the portal manipulator. Giyera tortures Simmons to get her to reveal how she escaped from Maveth, while Ward makes Fitz listen for the same purpose.
Coulson calls Ward to inform him of his brother's abduction, and Thomas keeps him on the phone long enough for Morse to track his location, taking the opportunity to deride him as even worse than their parents and Christian while commenting that their father was using a walker the night he killed Christian and their parents. After the call, Coulson has Thomas dropped off in another location. Furious, Ward takes over Simmons' torture until Fitz finally gives in, agreeing to accompany the Hydra team through the portal and help them bring back the ancient Inhuman (though he hopes to leave the creature and the Hydra agents there, and instead rescue Will Daniels).
Malick convinces Ward to lead the mission to Maveth, declaring him the finest Hydra soldier in history and the only man worthy of this task. While Mack marshals a taskforce (including Lincoln Campbell and Joey Gutierrez) to launch an assault on the castle, Coulson, Hunter, and Morse get there first in their Quinjet, just as Malick opens the portal using the Monolith pieces.
After Ward and his team go through with Fitz, Coulson dives from the Quinjet into the portal, and is knocked unconscious upon landing on Maveth.
