"Feels good to be home. Just didn't think it'd be under these circumstances." Jemma admitted as she loaded up her own pistol, she asked her husband if he had packed the explosives. He gave an affirmative to both that, and all the other things she checked up on.

"I just want this to work. After everything we've done to get here."

"You made a choice. Don't look back." Fitz tried to ease her worries as he closed the case.

"What are the chances that we find that weapon here?" Elena asked as she handed Fitz a pad, one which he took and then added to the backpack.

"Gideon Mallik hinted that this place was a crucial RnD site for HYDRA. It's our best bet by far." He gave them the rundown. That the Quinjet would land them nearby and they'd go the rest of the way by foot. The thing would be kept in cloak until they returned.

"Ready if you are." Jemma said, not just to her husband, but her other two friends that had followed them there as well. Aaron had, but he was looking anywhere but them. Elena verbalised her readiness for this oncoming mission.

Fitzsimmons shared a nice moment about their honeymoon. Elena joked about being a third wheel before she jumped. Aaron closed his eyes and took a breath. Then, all he felt was air.

"We're never gonna find them." Daisy groaned as she slammed her hands on the table in frustration.

"Not with that attitude." Simon's words only gained a look of, "Now's not the time." From the agent. He only raised his hands before returning them to the folded position they were in before.

"We've been circling the Trident range for hours and still no sign of Coulson or whoever he's with." Daisy lifted her head as she let out a sigh.

"Well, that's a surprise, considering we're following such a detailed map." Deke quipped as he picked up said "map". Simon walked to his friend, taking it from his grasp and raising his eyebrows at the younger male. Deke rolled his eyes.

"Robin's been right about everything else." May was still standing firmly in the camp of going by Robin's word.

"Yeah, well. What if this doesn't happen for another month? Or.... Or a year? Would it kill her to draw a calendar?" Deke was hit in the arm by Simon. The older man silently reprimanding him for his choice of words.

"Why don't you go ask her?" May goaded him on. Simon placed his face in his hands as he let out a groan. Daisy saw his action, along with her own growing annoyance at the ensuing argument. She put a stop to it. Calling out his name and bluntly stating that he wasn't helping.

"Maybe we should change tactics." Daisy suggested, continuing to explain that they should land and continue by foot. Let Coulson find them. Only issue being that they would be exposed. May was going to say something. Start another argument. But, she ultimately stopped herself. Instead, going with Daisy's plan.

"Coulson?" Simon asked as he saw him, Talbot and May enter the BUS. The man looked up at his name being mentioned. Talbot looked at Simon before back to Coulson.

"Is this the one who died more than you?" He asked, Simon looked at Coulson with a questioning look. The man shook his head. Later.

"That's Aaron, Glenn." Talbot nodded, vaguely remembering the name. He let out a gasp as he remembered why.

"They mentioned that name a lot." Coulson now looked at Simon with a questioning gaze. Simon now shook his head. Later.

"Holy shit." Simon swore as he barrelled down the ramp to assist Daisy in helping Deke up the ramp. Coulson and May came over as they lowered him to the ground.
