Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD finally reunited FitzSimmons in the last episode. But where are they headed and will they make it back to Earth?
Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD loves to torture Fitz and Simmons and their relationship. This week’s episode was no different than episodes of the past.
This week’s episode focused solely on FitzSimmons, their relationship, and all the baggage they need to unwrap and air out that’s happened in the last year. Like traveling to the future, getting married, meeting their grandson, traveling back to the present, Fitz dying, Coulson dying, and Simmons’ crazy search for frozen Fitz among the stars.
It’s a lot, especially when the darkest parts of them manifest and start trying to kill them.
In the end, Enoch rescues them from the mind machine, and they teleport off before the other Chronicoms can wake up.
So… where did they go?
MARVEL’S AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. – “Fear and Loathing on the Planet of Kitson” – It’s a wild night out on the planet of Kitson for the agents. While Fitz and Enoch try their luck at the casino, nearby, Daisy and Simmons find themselves in a much . groovier situation on “Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.,” airing FRIDAY, MAY 24 (8:00-9:00 p.m. EDT), on The ABC Television Network.

Honestly, they could be anywhere in the universe. Do we know how far those transport modules can take a person (let alone three)? Can they teleport onto a nearby ship and hope for rescue at the next planet?
The one thing I doubt very much is that they can transport all the way back to Earth. Even then, they may not want to lead the Chronicoms back to Earth.
Likewise, it’s probably not a bright idea to head back to Kitson with all of the fuss Daisy made before they left.
Their best bet is to teleport to an escape pod and fly to the nearest planet–like the shipping/receiving one outside of Kitson. If Fitz and Enoch can get rid of the bounty on their heads, they’ll have an easier time of getting around. But this show never makes anything easy for its characters.
If Agents of SHIELD wants to keep bouncing episodes between the two different plots until they somehow connect in the latter half of the season, that’s a good idea. The show has always struggled with its pacing issues. Allowing both plots to breathe and have a full 43 minutes a week to progress makes the most sense.
