Collision Course (Part 1) (Mrmichaelt, Edward Zachary Sunrose)
Mrmichaelt wrote: AOS "Collision Course, Part 1"

-18:44 (DVR timestamp from TV broadcast) to 19:48 -Monoliths are really called Di'Allas and were created to "connect life together" but someone disagreed with that plan. Izel seems to hint it was Sarge. -Monoliths from the Lighthouse were stolen from Izel's home world "millennia ago."

-Benson's email to Mack 27:42-28:35 -Izel is the creator of the Shrikes and her back story is connected to Incan myth. -28:36-29:03 -Incan myth says Izel at escaped from a realm of fear and darkness "thousands of years ago" then started looking for her stolen Monoliths, destroying planets in her wake.

-34:10-14 -Sarge claims Izel murdered his family.

-33:36-33:40 -Sarge's crew went to the Chronicom home world but were too late to stop the Shrike and had to flee. Edward Zachary Sunrose wrote: Sarge couldn't have been the one to steal the Di'Allas unless he's lying about being 100 years old. The myths say Izel had them stolen from her thousands of years ago and we know that's factual because the Inhumans used it on Hive to banish him to Maveth.

And we still don't know how SHIELD got ahold of the four Di'Allas or why there's two black ones (Maveth one seen in S2 and S3, and the one blown up in the Lighthouse during S5). I wonder if this will be the storyline for the rest of this season as well as S7? It would definitely explain why the Shrike have the same crystalline structure as the Di'Allas. I thought it was odd that when Daisy asks him how old he is, he doesn't reply, like it's some sort of secret.

The show twice in the last few episodes has not quite revealed what the other Di'Allas/Monoliths do, in this case saying "space and time and-" "the Monoliths?". I wonder if we'll ever find out.

I'm also hoping that with this "Part 1"/"Part 2" double-episode, previously reserved for finales and premieres, they're considering these "significant" episodes and we'll find out the truth about Sarge next week, instead of stretching it for the whole season.

Avengers: Endgame Dates (additional)
I think I've worked out the number of days that pass in Endgame and assigned the dates.

Day 1 Day 2 Day 3 Day 4 Day 5 Day 6 Day 7 Day 8 Day 9 Day 10 Day 11 Day 12 Day 13 Day 14 Day 15 Day 16 Day 25 Day 26 Day 27 Day 28
 * Therapy scene.
 * Scott comes out of the Quantum Realm.
 * Doesn't need to be the same day as the therapy scene but no need for there to be a gap.
 * Scott presumably leaves San Francisco around the morning.
 * Scott drives to about Salt Lake City, Utah.
 * Assuming he drives about 11 hours a day to New York, he would get to about Salt Lake City by the end of the first day.
 * Scott drives to about Kearney, Nebraska.
 * Another 11 hours of driving.
 * Scott drives to about Elkhart, Indiana.
 * Another 11 hours of driving.
 * Natasha's conference call, Natasha and Steve's conversation.
 * Scott arrives in New York in the evening.
 * Another 11 hours of driving from Elkhart, Indiana so he wouldn't get there until the evening realistically, and just before the conference call it is shown to be evening.
 * They visit Tony.
 * Presumably the next day.
 * Hulk diner scene.
 * The deleted scene from the bonus footage seems to be between visiting Tony and the diner scene, and is night time, so this should be at least the next day (and presumably just the next day). They've changed clothes as well.
 * Tony changes his mind. He cracks time travel and puts Morgan to bed, then talks to Pepper about it.
 * Tony's in different clothes which matches it not still being Day 6. There could be a gap after the Hulk diner scene, but it doesn't seem like there's much of one.
 * The test on Scott goes badly. Tony arrives and gives Steve the shield. Steve says they're working on getting the team.
 * Presumably the morning after Tony cracked time travel. If there's no gap between the diner scene and Tony changing his mind, this would only be the day after Bruce agreed to help - but they haven't had to build anything new, they've only had to have a look at (unsuccessfully) trying to direct the Quantum Realm travel. It could just be one day.
 * Nebula, Rocket, and War Machine arrive.
 * This could be the same day as the last scene, or it could be a little while later. The scene where Tony calls Thor Lebowski and Rocket Ratchet seems to be the day after this, and in that scene they're very nearly done with the machine. While Tony works fast, I think there should be at least a couple of days between him arriving and them having built most of the machine. But also, this doesn't seem to be long after the Steve and Tony scene, considering they're only just getting to the facility and Steve implied they'd already contacted them. I'd say this is the day after the Steve and Tony scene.
 * Morning-to-midday-ish New York/late afternoon/early evening Norway - New Asgard.
 * Rocket doesn't get off the Benatar when they arrive at the facility, he asks where Hulk is, and then Hulk is walking towards the ship, plus Hulk is in the same clothes when they get to Norway. Definitely seems that flying to Norway follows immediately after the facility scene. Wouldn't take more than a couple of hours.
 * Midday-ish New York/night Tokyo - Tokyo.
 * The scene after this appears to be Thor getting to the facility, so the morning after the Norway scene, so this would still be the same day as Norway or the next morning, just before the scene with Thor popping his can open. Makes sense to be at the same time as the Norway scene, as they're gathering the team. Time zones line up as well.
 * Thor pops his beer can open. Tony calls him Lebowski and calls Rocket Ratchet. The machine is nearly there.
 * Appears to be Thor getting to the base for the first time since Norway, so in the morning having been dropped off yesterday evening, therefore the day after the New Asgard scene. The machine is nearly there which ideally would take more than 2 days but Tony does work fast.
 * Clint does a test run.
 * The machine is ready now, which would be either the same day as the last scene or the day after. I'm going to say the day after, there's no character overlap with checking clothes and it's more believable that the total making of the machine took 3 days rather than 2.
 * The team start to plan.
 * New clothes.
 * Nebula tells them about Vormir. They finish the plan.
 * New clothes again.
 * The Time Heist.
 * Could be the same day as the plan being finished, but I imagine they need a day to prepare every last detail.
 * Mourning Natasha.
 * Preparing the Nano Gauntlet.
 * This could be the same day as the Time Heist, but I think it's the next day. They've recovered a little bit from Natasha's death. This does mean that Nebula didn't bring Thanos and his army to 2023 until a day after the Time Heist, but maybe she just didn't get the chance until they were distracted.
 * Nebula brings them to 2023.
 * Hulk's snap.
 * The battle.
 * Clint gets home.
 * Presumably only the next day.
 * Peter goes back to school.
 * This montage cuts between scenes like they're roughly simultaneous, but that's just impossible. There's no way Clint doesn't return home A.S.A.P., but there's no way schools go back immediately, so just going to assume they're in the order of the first bit of each scene. The San Francisco fireworks shouldn't be more than about 10 days after the people came back (also due to the funeral after this that shouldn't be too long after Tony's death), so pushing the going back to school as late as possible (to allow them time to get schools somewhat sorted again), this should be about 10 days after the battle. That does seem very early, but also Peter and Ned haven't seen each other since they came back, it seems, so any more than 10 days would also be difficult to believe.
 * Fireworks over San Francisco.
 * Again, shouldn't be more than 10ish days after the people return, but also shouldn't be less than 10ish days for the school scene before this. So school pushing as late as possible, fireworks pulling as early as possible, meet at about 10 days.
 * Afternoon New York/night Wakanda - Full moon over Wakanda.
 * Due to time zones, this has to be at least the next day. Shouldn't be more than the next day to have Tony's funeral not be too long after his death and it has to be at least the day after this.
 * Tony's funeral.
 * Funerals are about 1-2 weeks after a death and this has to be at least 12 days after Tony's death really, so keeping it as close as possible to 10/11 days, putting it at 12 days. Allows the Ant-Man guys 2 days to travel from San Francisco (presumably flying) and the Wakandans could have got there in the morning, since Wakanda is 8 hours ahead of Eastern time and they can fly in under 6 hours.
 * Thor leaves.
 * No reason to assume it's not the day after the funeral.
 * Steve goes back.
 * Hulk will have had 13 days to make a new platform, and I think 13 days is enough time for the damage control going on at the site of the facility to be at the point they're at.

Day 26 is October 28th for Day 15 to be 8 months before June 26th and for Day 26 to be a full moon (if the beginning of Far from Home moves to July, the full moon would be November 27th so the dates would be shifted 30 days, plus an extra day for the final few scenes to put Peter and Ned returning to school on a weekday), so Day 1 is October 3rd. This makes Day 25, when Peter and Ned return to school, October 27th, a Friday. Not ideal for the day to return to school but it's a school day, it works enough. Maybe they had a "loose first day back on Friday just to settle, school starts again properly on Monday" situation.

So:

October 3rd October 4th October 5th October 6th October 7th October 8th October 9th October 10th October 11th October 12th October 13th October 14th October 15th October 16th October 17th October 18th October 27th October 28th October 29th October 30th

Update (additional)
I am now properly into my time off for summer, and will have until late September mostly free to work. You should see more and more write-ups going up, as well as finishing off my Iron Fist: Season 2/Daredevil: Season 3 conclusion write-up (the conclusion's been done, just got to finish the notes explaining it), Runaways: Season 2 conclusion, Jessica Jones: Season 3 notes (episode notes are done, breakdowns of what the notes mean are not), corrections to the write-ups of Captain Marvel, Endgame, and Far from Home, a detailed breakdown of the Time Heist side-by-sides with The Avengers, The Dark World, and Guardians of the Galaxy, some work on my blogs and preparing for my full project, reading more of the canon novels and sending my notes, and lots of other bits and pieces of work on the wiki.

I will also, once I've worked out how Jessica Jones: Season 3 would fit in May 2018 if we were to put it there, let you guys know the exact final decision on Infinity War and then make the big edit integrating things with The Punisher: Season 2 and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Season 5 and rewriting the edits, but it's looking like mid-to-late May 2018.
