It's so nice how watching Agents of SHIELD actually uncovers most of the things said in this video

“In order to save S.H.I.E.L.D...” “ We have to save Hydra.”
- Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

How to leave a guy speechless for ladies:
1) make eye contact with the guy
2) walk towards him and smile
3) whisper in his ears: "Hail Hydra!"
4) walk away

"Bucky killed JFK" was not a piece of lore I thought I'd ever learn

[savino]

Phil Coulson is Hydra’s worst nightmare ✊🏼

[lokivanderzee]

And then Red Skull was teleported to vormir where the soul stone was

Marvels Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D is my favorite show so this was surprisingly interesting, especially the parts about Hive because he had a huge role even though he ended up dying in space by his own weapon which was a nuclear warhead. Although i wish that they would have talked about how Simmons got stuck om Maveth or how she got back home to earth.

People that didn't watch Agents of shield show: wtf is going on?

[PsychoRavager]

It's amazing how the MCU managed to build this coherent story across many episodes and films. Sad that this level of world building isn't felt in all of the MCU.

[NorthernLaw_]

Hydra really said "execute order 66" when the uprising happened and they were told to kill their former Shield colleagues

[ZerGames]

the MCU is a masterpiece, i never thought in my childhood that this would become true one day :')

[thephoenix]

Agents of SHIELD really played a huge part in story building behind the scenes

[flightlesslord]

Agent of Shield added a lot to the MCU, I mean bloody Ghost Rider!

[supernunb]

Also, in Agents of SHIELD season 3, it had that whole backstory of Will, and him going from NASA to Hydra and through the Monolith, etc.

[flicks]

Please remake this in 2040, so we can catch up completely, thanks :P

"Hail Hydra"

... then AoS season 5 happened, revealing that General Hale had escaped the fall of HYDRA, and was contacted by Quovas, who warned of alien warship approaching Earth and demanded the Gravitonium, metal that can control gravity, for his help.

Hale instead restarted "the Destroyer of Worlds" project, originally thought up by Whitehall. It was a plan that would infuse Gravitonium with a strong individual, making the person the defender of Earth. Hale's daughter Ruby was the initial choice for "the Destroyer" but Hale decided that Daisy Johnson would be better candidate, and seeked cooperation from S.H.I.E.L.D.

After Ruby tried to become "the Destroyer" herself, she was killed by S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Elena Rodriguez. Now vengeful Hale informed Quovas of location of S.H.I.E.L.D., who now held the gravitonium.

However, during the attack, once-prisoned-but-freed, General Glenn Talbot wanted to make ammends and infused himself with the Gravitonium, becoming the superpowered individual known in the comics as "Graviton."

I have a theory that in Season 4, when AIDA injected herself into the Framework as Madame Hydra, she did so because there was a real-world person named Ophelia Sarkissian that the Framework predicted could become leader of HYDRA in the alternate timeline and thus took her place.

[grandsonofvader]

I don't know why I watch these when I know everything

[CK-vyqr]

I expected more Grant Ward, as (For a brief time) he was the head of a remaining hydra forces before joining forces with Gideon Malick.
