Agents of SHIELD: Case Files

Marvel's Secret Invasion drops us back into the world of Nick Fury and espionage as an invasion of Skrulls threatens our planet. Talos calls Fury down from SABER to help him stop the disgruntled Skrull, Gravik, who wants to use Earth as the new home world for his people. Who can we trust when the Skrulls can be anyone at any time. Director Shepard and Director Stolte return after an extended hiatus on SHIELD: Case Files.

For seven years Marvel's Agents of SHIELD has taken us on many intriguing adventures. From the introductions of the Inhumans to our first live action experience with LMDs, Jay and Josh have analyzed and discussed the beloved series as they explored the darkest depths of the Marvel universe. Now, one last time, they look back on the series and hear from listeners that have experienced Coulson and his team save the world again and again. Plus, they take a look at what's in store for the cast and crew in the future. Join your hosts as they turn in their badges to enjoy the quiet life on the final episode of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

"The End is at Hand". Do you know "What We're Fighting For"? The Agents of SHIELD complete their last mission as a team when they infiltrate the Chronicom's ship and save Simmons and Deke. They survive an attack on the Lighthouse from John Garret where they reunite to put all the pieces of Fitz's plan together. Luckily, that involves finally finding him too. They may have to say goodbye to a friend, but all will be revealed as they make their way back to the original timeline and bring the Chronicoms with them. In the final confrontation, they'll have to be there for each other and be unpredictable. Ultimately, our heroes will be triumphant and we will have to say farewell. Jay and Josh fit together the final pieces of a seven-year-long puzzle as they discuss the series finale on this week's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

It's a "Brand New Day" for our heroes. But even though they have successfully recaptured Afterlife and imprisoned the mercenaries and Kora, Malick and Garrett have escaped with the Zephyr into space. Because the bad guys can predict their every move, they try to act unpredictably. Daisy, Sousa, and Mack follow them to space in the Quinjet while the rest of the team tries to convince Kora that she can be good. But she proves otherwise when she shuts down the lighthouse, giving Sybil access to the SHIELD mainframe. Coulson uses his newly acquired computer code knowledge to slow her down, but they can't stop her. The newly summoned fleet of Chronicoms eventually destroys just about all the SHIELD bases. Malick tries to get the location of Fitz from Simmons by going straight into her mind. But that leads to some very nasty consequences for Simmons. Jay and Josh attempt to storm Nakatomi Plaza during the penultimate show breakdown on this week's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

When things are "Stolen", the good guys must make it right. In 1983 Nathaniel Malick is determined to create anarchy everywhere. He steals the powers of the captured Inhumans and give them to his mercenaries. And he's recruited a young John Garrett to help him by having Sybil show him what his future holds. Our heroes must protect Jiaying from them and free Afterlife. But Malick has the upper hand. And it may be that he's not really after Jiaying at all. Jay and Josh promise to give the powers back after they're finished with them–honestly–on this week's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

"As I Have Always Been" tells a tear-jerker of a story when the Zephyr gets stuck in a time loop that causes the team to repeat the same short moments over and over. But they only have a limited amount of time to stop it before their ultimate destruction. Luckily, Daisy and Coulson are able to remember what has happened each time they loop. However, the key to saving everyone lies in the brain of Jemma Simmons and they can't get to it without removing the chip in her head which will spell certain defeat from a pre-programmed Enoch. If they are going to survive, it may mean the ultimate sacrifice for one of our heroes. Jay and Josh just keep looking up what the word 'phlebotenum' means on this week's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

The team goes to "After, Before" when the Zephyr jumps uncontrollably through time. Yo-Yo may be the only hope to save them before it's too late, but she'll need her powers. So she and May take a trip to Afterlife to visit Inhuman expert Jiayang. The rest of the battered team stays on board to try to do what they can, but time is ticking away. After a few tests, they realize that Yo-Yo's trouble is mental, not physical. With May's help she'll come to terms with her past. But trouble brews outside of Afterlife when Nathaniel Malick show up and persuades an Inhuman to help him infiltrate the sanctuary. This mission is far from over as dangers seem to appear around every corner. Jay and Josh wait for their legs to print on this week's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

This summer, "The Totally Excellent Adventures of Mack and the D" will tell you the story of two buddies that help each other find ways to cope with being stuck in the 80's. When Mack and Deke are left behind by the time travelling Zephyr, Deke tries to make the best of the situation but Mack is heartbroken by the death of his parents at the Chronicoms' hands. He copes by drinking, making car models, and moping around while his beard grows. Deke, on the other hand, knowing that the fight isn't over, begins recruiting new SHIELD agents and creating a cover band. The 'Deke Squad' needs training though. They'll need it if they are going to finally stop Sibyl, who is using a computer nerd to transfer her still living consciousness from an old computer into a newly built, deadly robot body. Luckily, the squad will get some help. It's like, a totally tubular episode with those totally bodacious dudes Jay and Josh on this week's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

SHIELD will need to "Adapt of Die" if they're finally going to get the advantage against the Chronicoms. After the Zephyr is badly damaged, following an attack by the 1976 SHIELD, Deke, Enoch, and Daisy work feverishly to repair it before the next time jump. But Deke is a little suspicious of Enoch, even though he tries to help Simmons. Mack and Yo-Yo break into the Lighthouse to rescue his captured parents. Coulson and May are being held by Agent Stoner, who can't seem to make himself believe their time-travelling stories. And Quake and Sousa are prisoners of Nathaniel Mallick, who plans to do some very unsavory experiments to give himself powers. Getting out of this will take some major sacrifices. Jay and Josh get three things (or more) wrong on this week's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

When there's "A Trout in the Milk" you better find out how to fix the problem. And if the problem is that you have made a time jump to the 70's and HYDRA has continued to manipulate SHIELD behind the scenes, then you know that Mack and his team will be trying to stop them. With the help of a Chronicom, Malick has managed to build Project Insight forty years early and continues to live and run SHIELD. The team splits up to blow up the rocket that will launch the satellite to kill important people considered dangerous to the future of HYDRA. But the time travelling bad guys have just about thought of everything. Now everyone on the team is in danger, as is their future. Jay and Josh slip on some wide collared shirts and wavy bell-bottoms on this week's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

Will the Agents get "Out of the Past" while successfully completing their mission of stopping the Chronicoms? Coulson reboots from the EMP blast that stopped the Chronicoms, but everything is looking a bit Film Noir now. Even though the bad guys didn't win last time, they still managed to mess up the timeline. They will have to help Agent Sousa get an important package to Howard Stark or risk changing the future in a big way. Unfortunately, this is to be Sousa's final, heroic mission before being killed. Our heroes will have to decide if they let him die, or save him and potentially give the Chronicoms the upper hand. Jay and Josh need a drink and a decent time machine. What they have is a coat, a hat and a gun on this week's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

A true American will never give in to "Alien Commies From The Future!" When the Zephyr arrives in New Mexico in the year 1955, the team quickly realizes they will have to infiltrate Area 51, which is of course a SHIELD base. Coulson and Simmons pick the perfect disguise and try to weed out imposters. The only problem is that they can't fool the highly skilled agent, and friend of Peggy Carter, Daniel Sousa. The rest of the team tries to get information from an abducted (and racist) government worker. May's condition appears to be getting worse when an anxiety attack allows a Chronicom to get away. And Yo-Yo still has no speed. Jay and Josh discuss turtles in the desert on this week's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

It's important to "Know Your Onions." As Mack and Deke struggle to keep Freddy Mallick safe from the Chroni-cops in 1931, the rest of the team struggles to decide if they should just let him be killed and stop HYDRA before they become a threat. When Simmons and Yo-Yo get to Koenig's speakeasy, they save the woman in the red dress, but Simmons makes a startling discovery about the mysterious liquid that Freddy is supposed to be transporting. Back on the ship, May has awoken, but she seems a bit….off. Enoch tries his best to help her understand, but May wants to go on the mission. Then, the team grabs the Zephyr to give Mack support, with Koenig tagging along. Their time in 1931 is about to expire, but they all wonder if they should save Mallick, or let him die for the greater good. Jay and Josh aren't crying! It's just the Onions, on this week's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

"The New Deal" for SHIELD is that our heroes will have to follow the Chronicoms to 1931 and save the day again. But they can't do it alone. That's why Simmons has created a Coulson LMD to give them the guidance they'll need to stop the time travelling bad guys. Enoch works on reviving May while everyone else suits up and tries to blend in to figure out why the Chronicoms chose this year. It seems as if they want to kill Franklin Roosevelt before he becomes president. The team joins up with Ernest Koenig, a bootlegger and distant relative to a future agent, to infiltrate a party that FDR will be attending. But they discover the Chronicoms have a much more complex plan than they'd have imagined. Jay and Josh dust of their SHIELD badges and don some fedoras on the season seven premiere of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

"Ant-Man and the Wasp" gives us the chance to catch up with Scott Lang. He's been on house arrest since he helped Cap fight a Civil War in Germany. When he has a vision of the long lost Janet Pym, he contacts her husband Hank to let him know. Hope sneaks him out to get the mysterious message out of his head. They've been on the run from the feds, having to get parts they need for a quantum tunnel from the black market. During one of these transactions, she's attacked by a mysterious ghost-like woman that steals the part the Pyms need and the miniaturized lab. With a tip from Hank's old colleague Bill Foster, they track down Ghost and discover she is the daughter of another former colleague who was killed in an experiment that made her molecules unstable. She blames him and reveals she's working with Foster. They want to use the quantum tunnel to cure herself, but it will kill Janet. Our heroes manage to get back the lab, and must enter the quantum realm before the FBI catches them and Ghost goes too far. Jay and Josh find ways to keep themselves occupied while on house arrest on a hiatus special of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files

"Black Panther" tells the tale of Wakandan King T'Challa as he prepares to assume the throne following his father's death. His coronation is observed by an almost unified Wakanda, including T'Challa's mother Ramonda and his highly-intelligent sister Shuri. When the new king discovers that a long-standing enemy of their people, Ulysses Klaue, has stolen more vibranium, he sets out as the Wakandan protector Black Panther to finally catch him. The king travels to South Korea with his trusted guard Okoye and his girlfriend Nakia and manage to capture Klaue with the help of CIA agent Everett Ross. But the mysterious Erik Stevens, aka Killmonger, helps Klaue escape. Stevens kills Klaue and takes his body to Wakanda where he successfully challenges T'Challa to the throne, because he is of royal blood. Thinking their good king is dead, the kingdom is in chaos and our heroes must form a rebellion to stop Killmonger before he unleashes his wrath upon the world. Luckily, the true Black Panther returns to test his abilities and make everything right. Jay and Josh aren't fooling anyone with the pop rocks tucked under their lips on a hiatus special of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

"Thor: Ragnarok" A story of loss, of family, and a rock named Korg. Thor returns home to Asgard to find that Loki has taken over and exiled Odin to Earth. The brothers go to retrieve him, only to be told by their father that he is about to die and their powerful, war-hungry sister Hela will return to destroy everything once he is dead. And he wasn't exaggerating. She quickly destroys Mjölnir, discards the princes, and takes control of the kingdom. Asgard's forces are no match for the Goddess of Death and it's all Heimdall can do to hide his people until Thor can return. He's stuck on Sakaar, a trash planet where the Grandmaster pits him against The Champion. Fortunately, that turns out to be Hulk. With the help of a former Valkyrie and Loki they return to Asgard for the final battle. Jay and Josh remain friends from work on a hiatus special of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

"Spider Man: Homecoming" finally gives us a chance to see the MCU version of our web-slinging hero in his very own movie. The young Peter Parker is trying to be a good hero to impress Tony Stark, but going up against the villainous Vulture may be a little too much for him. The Vulture, aka Adrian Toomes, secretly acquires and uses illegal alien tech for his own profit. He also gets away from Spider Man at each encounter. Peter's life is turned upside down by his new role as hero and he'll have to learn what it truly means before earning the suit. Plus, he needs to find a date to Homecoming. Jay and Josh show their expertise in the MCU, mostly because they didn't qualify for the academic decathlon team on a hiatus special of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

"Doctor Strange" may be arrogant, but he's one of the most brilliant surgeons in the world. That is, until he has a horrific accident that causes him to lose his ability to perform medical miracles. Now he travels the world and seeks a miracle that would give him his life back. This leads him to Kamar-Taj and the Ancient One. She teaches him in the ways of the mystic arts and helps him to understand that he can save lives for less selfish reasons. But while he learns, a rogue sorcerer grows more powerful. He is named Kaecilius, and has stolen a page from an ancient text, in hopes of summoning a powerful dark force from the dark dimension in his obsessive quest for eternal life. Strange must learn quickly if there is any hope of stopping Kaecilius before it's too late. Jay and Josh have come to bargain with Dormammu on a hiatus special of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

Mr. Blue Sky, please tell us why "Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 2" is such a fun romp in space? Peter Quill and the Guardians are hired to protect batteries for the Sovereign race in exchange for Gamora's sister Nebula. Rocket, instead steals them for himself, causing them to be on the run again. But a mysterious Celestial saves them and tells Peter that he's his long lost father, Ego. When taking Star Lord, Gamora, and Drax to his planet to explain everything they meet the Celestial's empath, Mantis. Rocket, Nebula, and Groot stay behind but are captured by the Ravagers, who mutiny against their captain, Yondu. Rocket and his team help Yondu stop the mutineers and blow up the ship. Discovering the real reason Yondu took Quill all those years ago, they make their way to the rest of the team to save them from Ego, who really wants his son's power to take over the galaxy. Jay and Josh heard her say, 'Come a little bit closer, you're my kind of men…' on a hiatus special of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

"Guardians of the Galaxy" introduced many otherworldly characters and settings to the MCU in a risky shift of tone for the movies. After his mother's death in 1988, Peter Quill gets abducted by Ravagers and raised in space. Now he's stolen a curious orb that begins to get him in trouble with not only Yondu, but with the maniacal Kree extremist Ronan who also wants what's inside the orb. Thanos's deadly warrior daughter Gamora tries to get the orb, while Rocket Raccoon and the tree-like Groot try to capture Quill. That gets them all thrown in prison where they meet the powerful Drax the Destroyer. After the unlikely team escapes, they make their way to Knowhere to sell the orb. But they learn that there is a powerful Infinity stone inside which Thanos also wants it. Ronan shows up to cause trouble and gets away with the stone. Now the Guardians have to help save the planet Xandar before Ronan destroys it all. This bunch of losers may have just what they need to save the day. Jay and Josh strap on their Walkman and hit play on the most epic space mixtape ever made on a hiatus special of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

In "Thor: The Dark World" the heir to the throne of Asgard learns that the coming Convergence begins opening up portals between the Nine Realms. One of these portals appears in London where Jane Foster accidentally falls through and is infected by the Aether, a weapon hidden by Odin's father years ago so the Dark Elf Malekith could not possess it. Jane's contact with the mysterious substance reawakens Malekith, who now makes his way to Asgard where Thor has taken Jane. Despite Odin's objections, they try to protect Jane. But when Frigga is killed by the Dark Elf, Thor breaks his brother Loki out of jail and they both escape with Jane. But their plan to save Jane only partly works as they get the Aether out of her, only to be acquired by the bad guy, who also seems to kill Loki. Malekith makes his way to Earth to unleash the substance in the center of the Convergence. Now Thor has to battle them all before the Dark Elves return to power and maybe figure out what to do with the mysterious Aether. Jay and Josh practice their Asgardian pronunciations on the next hiatus special of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

In "Iron Man 3" we find Tony Stark having a difficult time dealing with his experiences in the Battle of New York. To cope with his insomnia, he builds dozens of Iron Man suits and tries to make his relationship with Pepper work. But while he struggles, a scientist named Aldrich Killian, who Tony once rejected has developed a regenerative treatment for the disabled called Extremis. He's also become a power-hungry, sadistic, madman who uses former soldiers that were treated with his formula to further his power. Unfortunately, they can also lose control and explode. Killian then make it look like a deadly terrorist attack by presenting to the world an intimidating leader named The Mandarin. When Happy Hogan is badly injured in one of the attacks, Tony vows to stop the Mandarin. With his house destroyed, Pepper kidnapped, and one non-functioning Iron Man suit that he crashed in Tennessee, he has to get help from a ten-year old boy to get back on his feet. Tony will have to team up with Rhodey to save Pepper and the President, plus stop Aldrich from blowing everything up and gaining control. And we learn the fate of Trevor Slattery in the Marvel One Shot, "All Hail the King". PLUS discussion on Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings! Jay and Josh try to keep cool so they don't melt their microphones on a hiatus special of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

In 2008 "The Incredible Hulk" began the interpretation of our current version of Bruce Banner. Edward Norton portrayed the cursed scientist as he lived his life on the run from General Ross and SHIELD. But as Ross finally corners Banner, he is forced to return to his love, Betty Ross. She helps him make contact with Mr. Blue in hopes that an antidote can be found to rid him of the Hulk forever. Trusting people can be hard when you're trying not to turn into a giant rage monster. And when Major Blonsky wants a little taste of the Hulk's strength, he turns himself into an abomination and creates a really big problem. Jay and Josh try to control their anger on their first hiatus special of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

SHIELD watches for "The Sign" that Izel is about to release "New Life" from a portal created by the Di'Alla stones. She used the sudden creation of Mack's Inhuman friend Flint to reform the stones and begin the process of bringing the Shrike to Earth. May and Daisy lead a team to rescue them and stop their pink-haired nemesis with a lot of help from Deke's tech. But tragedy strikes May as they discover that they put a little too much trust in Sarge. Plus, Deke gets stuck in the temple, running from Shrike zombies while the rest of the team tries to get the Zephyr flying before they're overrun. Everyone battles it out for supremacy before Izel's plan comes to fruition. And we get the final answer to whether Coulson is coming back or not. Jay and Josh try to catch their breath (and not because they swallowed a Shrike) on the action-packed, exciting season finale of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files

SHIELD can find small victories "From the Ashes" of defeat. Knowing that Izel is using Mack and Yo-Yo to find an ancient temple, Daisy and May take over leadership at SHIELD. They use all their resources to look for their abducted friends, but they also interrogate Sarge to discover anything they can about his power and his history with Izel. May has trouble getting past his Coulson visage, but Daisy thinks she can put that aside and make some tough choices. But it seems as if Sarge is growing incredibly powerful as time goes on. Izel finds Dr. Benson who leads her to the temple, but they manage to help Benson escape to warn their comrades. Will they make it in time? Jay and Josh order new interrogation tables on this week's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

This week it's one big "Leap" for the bad guys, one small step for SHIELD. As FitzSimmons attempts to save Sarge, it's a closed room mystery for Mack as he tries to figure out why May shot the Coulson look-alike. Other members of the team experience strange behavior as Izel jumps from person to person looking to find the hidden Di'Alla's that she's been seeking. It's a crazy whodunnit that leads the team to the breaking point. Jay catches guest host Lou stealing a space pen on this week's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

The "Collision Course" that SHIELD began last week gets closer to impact. Deke tries desperately to stop the atomic bomb from being detonated before the runaway truck hits the Shrike tower. Fitz and Simmons come to the startling conclusion that Izel has something dangerous planned. Sarge begins his takeover of the Zephyr with the help of Jaco and Pax. But of course our heroes are resilient. Yo-Yo helps Mack get free, takes out Pax, and even begins to convince Jaco that Sarge may not be taking the right path. Jay and Josh argue whether to cut the red wire or the blue wire on this week's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

"Spider-Man: Far From Home" is the next chapter of Peter Parker's life, after the death of his friend Tony Stark. Peter just wants to enjoy his school trip to Europe, but he gets caught up in a battle against the strange and dangerous Elementals. Nick Fury recruits him to work with Mysterio to stop the new villains before it's too late. But Spidey soon discovers that Mysterio may not be what he seems, and in order to protect the legacy of Tony Stark and become an even better hero he will have to step up to stop him before it's too late. Jay and Josh close their eyes tight and try to experience a Peter Tingle on this special episode of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

Prepare for part one of a "Collision Course" against the Shrike. Sarge is now leading a team against the global threat, but he doesn't get to use his own people. Mack assigns Daisy and May to go with Sarge and Snowflake to stop the Shrike before the invasion begins. There is mistrust and tension between everyone though, so Mack follows in the Zephyr to keep an eye on the mysterious doppelganger. On the way, Sarge reveals that the real threat is Izel, who happens to be on her way to Earth with Fitz and Simmons. The three teams all approach the Shrike tower towards possible oblivion as Sarge arms the truck to blow up, with the team inside. Jay and Josh extort 10% of Deke's profits on this week's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

Don't be mad that Sarge "Toldja" he wasn't going to be locked up for long. Once May brings in the last of the mysterious team, Mack is pretty confident that he can take control of the situation and get the Coulson look-alike to cooperate with him. But Sarge doesn't seem swayed by Mack's leadership. Snowflake is her calm, perky self and Jaco just lays around and coughs. Plus, everyone at SHIELD tries to come to terms with having a guy that looks like their old boss in custody. Out in space Fitz, Simmons, and Enoch appear back on Kitson after their hasty escape from the Chronicoms. But they are still wanted and it doesn't take long for Kitson himself to grab them and put their heads on the chopping block...literally. Luckily for them, the mysterious Izel shows up to buy their freedom in exchange for becoming a part of her crew, plus passage to Earth. They may want to delay that though, because it seems that the Shrike (despite being caught by May and Yo-Yo) are becoming a big threat. The only way out seems to make a deal for Sarge's freedom. And just like that, we have a new leader that looks like the old leader. Jay and Josh hope the guy laying next to them has slippery hands or they may be a lot shorter on this week's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

Is your mind "Inescapable"? Atarah has connected the minds of Fitz and Simmons in an effort to force them to work together on a solution to time travel. This mind connection is a virtual prison for the two lovebirds, and it's full of their memories and fears. They work through a long, emotional history and once they begin to work through their feelings about each other, their deepest anxieties begin to surface. The most deadly of those are the evil, HYDRA leader Leopold, and a freaky, ghost-like Simmons who proceed to chase them through the hell that is in their mindscape. The only escape may be a solution to the Chronicom's problem. Jay and Josh channel their inner Inception on this week's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

When Sarge realizes May's connection to his visage is "The Other Thing", we witness some of the last moments of her time with Coulson in Tahiti. After revealing their mission is to destroy the parasitic Shrikes, Sarge wants May to join them. May isn't having any of that, and learns what she can before subduing him and Snowflake. Back at the Lighthouse, Yoyo copes with the loss of Keller, Mack feels the strain of leadership, and Dr. Benson learns more about the Shrike. And out in space the team is boarded by the last of the Chronicoms. Their homeworld has been destroyed and they want Fitz to build them a time machine to go back and stop it. This situation puts Enoch in a dangerous position as he tries to save everyone in his own, automaton way. Jay and Josh figure out ways to motivate each other on this week's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

SHIELD issues a "Code Yellow" to save an old friend. Deke Shaw, future grandson to Fitz and Simmons, has been spending his time in the present utilizing his knowledge of the future and SHIELD tech to create a successful company. This has made him happy and comfortable, but completely unaware that he is the target of Sarge and his band of mercenaries. When the Coulson look-alike shows up at Deke's office, he tries to learn a little from the chatty target. Eventually, even Deke can tell there's something wrong and has to once again run for his life. Back at headquarters, an alien bird that came from another of Sarge's victims, makes Agent Keller an unwilling host as it flies inside his body and takes over. Sacrifices are made as Jay and Josh enjoy their boba on this week's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

SHIELD experiences "Fear and Loathing on the Planet of Kitson." Fitz and Enoch try their best to get by when they are left broke and stranded on the infamous gambling planet. With a little luck and some Chronicom calculating abilities, they may be able to get what they need to continue their journey. What the unlikely duo doesn't realize is that Daisy and Simmons are hot on their trail. Unfortunately, that trail is twisty and psychedelic after they inadvertently ate some alien hallucinogen and become a bit loopy. What none of them realize is that a nasty hunter is after Fitz too, and he's not letting anything get in his way. Jay and Josh swear they only ate one or twelve happy puffs on this week's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

Coulson's doppelganger takes advantage of his "Window of Opportunity" when getting what he wants. The Sarge and his mysterious cohorts kill and steal while SHIELD follows their tracks. First, the bad guys look for the 'PEGs' that were lost when their teammate Tinker was killed. They think they'll find what they need at a jewelry store where they take the clerk hostage as she gives them access to the vault. May and Yo-Yo follow the clues (and trail of dead bodies) until they have them cornered, but locked in the vault. May realizes that they must have another way out and discovers the portal that transports them to their hideout. A fight ensues, but both she and the Sarge hesitate when Coulson's name is brought up, allowing them to get away before they execute their plan. And Dr. Benson discovers that the plan may involve destroying the planet. Plus, Fitz and Enoch have their cover blown on the alien spaceship where they are working and have to manipulate the captain to save both their lives and the lives of the crew. Jay and Josh try to talk themselves out of an opening airlock on this week's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

The "Missing Pieces" of SHIELD are not forgotten by anyone on the team. Daisy and Simmons tirelessly lead a team to find their frozen comrade Fitz, who is out in deep space waiting to rescue them from the future. Unfortunately, they keep hitting dead ends. Back on Earth, Mack has taken over the Directorial responsibilities from Coulson, who has succumbed to his illness and left the mortal world. Mack is a responsible and efficient director that has the respect of everyone. But they are still facing threats and need to build SHIELD back up with new agents and scientists. May tries to recruit Dr. Marcus Benson, who can help in areas of unusual science and also create a new training academy. That is, of course, if they can find a solution to these new reality distortions that are bringing some very surprising visitors to our planet. Jay and Josh return to action as the long hiatus is over on the Season 6 premiere of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

Behold! "Avengers: Endgame". The climax to a string of Marvel stories that began 10 years ago with Iron Man. After the snap, what's left of the team, and the universe, is in shambles. Many brood, but some continue to fight for justice. But when Scott Lang returns from the Quantum Realm, a new hope of bringing everyone back emerges. Once they convince Tony Stark to help build a machine that will transport them through time to collect the Infinity Stones and put things back the way they were. But a past version of Thanos gets word of this plan and attacks once more. The ensuing battle determines the fate of the universe, and not all of our heroes will make it to the end. Jay and Josh love you 3000 on this special look at the big movie "Avengers: Endgame" on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

"Captain Marvel" gives us the origin story of one of the most powerful heroes in the MCU. A woman named Vers, who defends the Kree from the shape-shifting Skrulls, has strong powers but no memory. After being caught by Talos, a Skrull leader, she escapes and lands on Earth in 1995. With the help of SHIELD agent Nick Fury she tries to stop the Skrull threat. But along the way she regains some of her memories, finds some of her friends, and realizes that her mission might have been wrong to begin with. Jay and Josh are allergic to Flerkens, but have made sure to their allergy medicine on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files Hiatus #11.

"Avengers: Infinity War" is a spectacle never before seen on the big screen! Almost every hero seen in the Marvel Cinematic Universe work together to stop Thanos from collecting all the Infinity Stones. Once he has them all in place in his gauntlet, one snap will eliminate half of the inhabitants of the universe! On Earth, Captain America gathers most of the Avengers in Wakanda to save Vision and destroy the mind stone. The army of Thanos attacks relentlessly, challenging the heroes like never before. On Titan, The Guardians of the Galaxy work with Iron Man, Dr. Strange, and Spider-Man to stop Thanos himself and get the gauntlet away from him before acquiring the time stone from Strange. But ultimately, Thanos, being the most powerful being in the universe, gets exactly what he wants and we are left to wonder where will the survivors of 'the snap' go from here. Jay and Josh tell Mr. Stark they don't feel so good, but it might just be that bad sandwich, on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files Hiatus #10.

"Captain America: Civil War" pits the heroes of the MCU against someone they never have before -- each other. After an accidental tragedy was caused by Scarlet Witch, the governments of the world want all powered-people to sign an agreement that would keep them in check. These Sokovia Accords are not well received by everyone though. Because of his strict moral code, Captain America refuses to sign. And when his good friend Bucky is framed for a terrorist attack that killed the king of Wakanda, Steve is forced to keep his friend safe from the likes of Iron Man, Spider-Man, Black Panther and more. But someone else is manipulating them all and he may just succeed. Jay and Josh started battling each other, but got too tired so they just made sandwiches instead on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files Hiatus #9.

"Ant-Man" takes the Marvel Cinematic universe into a much more comedic territory as we find ex-con Scott Lang thrust into a new life as a shrinking superhero. When Scott breaks into the house of scientist Hank Pym he discovers the Ant-Man suit. Pym trains him to use the suit so he can stop Darren Cross from selling the Yellowjacket suit to HYDRA to make an army of shrinking super soldiers. Scott just wants to be able to spend time with his daughter, but being an ex-con makes it hard for him to get back on his feet. Pym and his daughter Hope have relationship problems of their own, but all of them see how important it is to stop Cross before the shrinking tech gets into the wrong hands. Jay and Josh discuss why size doesn't matter on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files Hiatus #8.

"Avengers: Age of Ultron" leads our heroes into a much darker era. After retrieving the stone in Loki's scepter from HYDRA, Tony and Bruce use it to create Ultron; a sentient robot that was intended to protect the world. But it decided that it wanted to exterminate the humans that are plaguing the planet by dropping a city on us. Ultron uses the misguided Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch to help him at first, but they soon see that they are on the wrong side. And when the deviant droid's plan for a living body is thwarted, the team uses the bio-shell to create Vision; a powerful new team member. Even if the Avengers stop Ultron, will the world ever look at them the same again? Jay and Josh have no strings to hold them down on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files Hiatus #7.

"Captain America: The Winter Soldier" showed us how a 1940's era Steve Rogers will fit into a 21st century world. The answer: He'll do what's right in any time period. After Nick Fury discovers suspicious activities with SHIELD's Insight project, he is attacked by a powerful assassin codenamed 'The Winter Soldier'. Captain America and Black Widow go underground and discover that HYDRA has infiltrated the highest levels and will use Insight to murder thousands of people who they deem as threats. The two become fugitives on the run from the Winter Soldier, but soon learn that the dangerous foe is Cap's old friend Bucky Barnes. Enlisting the help of Sam Wilson and his Falcon wings, our heroes go on a daring mission to save the world from the very organization they worked for. Jay and Josh arm wrestle with their new left arms on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files Hiatus #6.

The first epic team up in Marvel comic book movie history was The Avengers. As we continue our look at the MCU history with SHIELD, we get to see possibly the best initiative to come out of the mind of Nick Fury: The collection of heroes that can help us save the world from an invasion lead by Loki. And a one-shot that couldn't have happened without the Battle of New York. Jay and Josh ask what you are prepared to do on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files Hiatus #5.

Ready for a cool origin story, bro? How about Captain America and SHIELD? We continue our look at SHIELD's appearances in the MCU with a look at where the agency all began; Captain America, The First Avenger. Plus, we watch the Marvel One-Shot that spotlights one of the founders of SHIELD; Agent Carter. Jay and Josh pull the filing cabinet all the way out to get the deep history of some of our favorite characters on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files Hiatus #4.

As we await the return of our heroes at SHIELD, we revisit the movies of the MCU that the agency was a part of. Agent Coulson himself was an important aspect of the arrival of Thor. We discuss how Coulson made the connection with Thor and his friends, where they received a lot of their research, and see the Asgardian's roles in the eventual problems we see in the Avengers. Jay and Josh take a detour to New Mexico as they review the cinematic history of SHIELD on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files Hiatus #3.

The SHIELD hiatus continues as we look back at the influences of SHIELD during the return of Tony Stark in Iron Man 2. Plus, Agent Coulson makes all the right moves to manipulate General Ross in making the decision they want. Who was responsible for the beginnings of SHIELD? How have those actions continued to influence people today? And how did Nick Fury and other agents help Tony Stark get ready to be a true Avenger? Jay and Josh continue to examine the history of SHIELD in the MCU on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files Hiatus #2.

There's nothing like a nice long vacation in Tahiti. Just because Agents Coulson and May are getting some much needed time off, that doesn't mean SHIELD isn't hard at work. On our first Hiatus Special, we take a look back at the movie that started it all, Iron Man. How has SHIELD evolved since that first appearance of Agent Coulson and Nick Fury? What can we expect for our heroes when they return? And is there any chance of seeing Agent Peggy Carter in action again. Jay and Josh shake the sand from their company issued shoes as we determined if Tony's lost his mind, if he can see or if he's blind on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files Hiatus #1.

And in "The End", the love you take, is equal to the love you make. As much as everyone loves Phil Coulson, the team can't agree on a course of action as he approaches the end of his life. Ultimately, Mack tells everyone that they will vote to see if they give him the Centipede serum or if they save it to stop Graviton. But May forces their hand and destroys the Odium before they vote. Emotions are high, and many think that their destiny has been sealed. Talbot has taken his ship to Chicago and landed it right on top of the city, where he intends to rip the Gravitonium from the ground, regardless of collateral damage. Daisy realizes that she has made a series of bad choices as leader of the team and she puts Mack in charge. Coulson, now up from his hospital bed, agrees with her choice. Mack's first order is to save lives. They rush to Chicago and Coulson explains to Daisy how she should confront Talbot, because he may not be recovering as much as everyone thought. In the battle that follows, Quake and Graviton fight violently and passionately. But there will be casualties and goodbyes for the future. Jay and Josh explore finality on the season finale of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.

It could be "The Force of Gravity" that dooms the planet Earth. Daisy breaks free from the grasp and enslavement plans of Kasius Senior. Coulson and May manage to escape their prison with a little help from Deke. But they have to figure out a way to stop Quovas from launching his missiles to the Lighthouse. Good thing May hasn't forgotten how to fight. Back on Earth, the team sees footage of General Talbot absorbing the Absorbing Man himself. Trying to track him down is a little tricky until they realize that he wants to prove himself to his son. When they find him at his own house, the powers he's acquired appear to be unstoppable (much to the dismay of his wife and son) and Talbot gets away once more. All of our heroes are en route to rendezvous at the Lighthouse once more, but it seems that Coulson has an injury that is more serious than expected and it could leave either him or humanity itself in jeopardy. Jay and Josh are the hero of their own story on this week's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Case Files.
