12th
Although Yon-Rogg believed his pupil Vers was not ready to join the Starforce, due to her not being able to control her powers, the Supreme Intelligence figured otherwise and allowed her to join.
Ambush on Torfa: A squad consisting of Yon-Rogg, Vers, Minn-Erva, Korath, Bron-Char and Att-Lass goes to Torfa to rescue the Kree operative known as Soh-Larr from the Skrulls. The locals turned out to be disguised Skrulls, even Soh-Larr himself, who reveals himself to be Talos as he knocks out Vers and takes her to his ship.[13]
Escape from Skrulls' Ship: The Skrulls inspect Vers' memories and discovers she is from Planet C-53 and met Mar-Vell. After she awakens, she breaks herself free, fights the Skrulls and causes a hull breach. With the ship about to be destroyed above C-53 (better known as Earth), Vers commandeered one of the Skrulls' escape pods, but Talos managed to damage it in her escape, resulting in the pod being destroyed during planetary re-entry, leaving Vers in freefall.[13]
Vers crash-lands on a Los Angeles Blockbuster. After asking for help from a nearby security guard, she gets equipment from a nearby Radio Shack, and by joining the disassembled pieces with a payphone, creates a communicator to contact Yon-Rogg.[13]
Talos and three other Skrulls emerge from a Los Angeles beach, and disguise themselves as humans. S.H.I.E.L.D. arrives to inspect the events of the prior night, with director Keller inspecting the field operations, Phil Coulson entering the Blockbuster, and Nick Fury going after Vers.[13]
Chase of the Skrulls: Vers was about to be arrested by Fury, when the Skrulls showed up and attacked them. Vers then began to chase the Skrull through Los Angeles, including inside a train, and while the Skrull escapes, Vers gets a crystal with her extracted memories from him. Fury and Coulson followed them in a car until the real Coulson contacts in the radio. Realizing he's with an impostor, Fury crashes the car, which kills what is revealed to be another Skrull. [13]
To both lay low and seek answers, Vers steals clothes from a mannequin and a motorcycle from a man who teased her Starforce Uniform, and drives to a bar she saw in her memories. Fury is already there, and says he can get Vers' into the Nevada Air Force base of her memories.[13]
Ambush at Joint USAFA Facility: Fury reports to Keller of their location and a posse of agents led by the director arrive, including Coulson. Upon realizing that Keller had been compromised by Talos, Fury goes rogue with Vers; Coulson allows the two to escape. Motivated to seek answers from Rambeau, Fury, and Vers, accompanied by Goose, a cat who they encountered at the facility, hijack a Quadjet to Rambeau's residence in New Orleans, Louisiana.[13]
Rambeau is initially shocked at Vers' presence, while her daughter Monica is ecstatic at seeing her "Auntie Carol". With the help of some keepsakes, Vers learns more about her Earth life as Carol Danvers.[13]
Maria Rambeau flying the modified Quadjet.
Talos and Norex infiltrate the Rambeau house, and dissuade Danvers to listen to him by saying he had the black box recording of Lawson's jet. The audio recovered Danvers' memory of the crash and how she got her powers. Talos reveals that the Skrulls were victims of Kree persecution that Mar-Vell hoped to find a refuge for. Confused about her identity and revolted about being lied to by the Kree for the last six years, Danvers decided to make things right with the Skrulls by helping them find Lawson's old lab, whose coordinates were heard in the recording.[13]
14th
While Yon-Rogg kills Norex who disguised himself as Vers as a distraction, a modified Quadjet flies Mar-Vell's Laboratory in orbit.

Carol Danvers holding back a Kree missile.
Battle at Mar-Vell's Laboratory: The Starforce arrives, subdues Danvers and tries to throw the Skrulls and humans out of the airlock. Through the intervention of Goose, who is revealed as a Flerken, as well as Danvers unleashing her true powers, the Starforce are defeated. The Accusers arrive hoping to purge the Skrulls from Earth, but Danvers destroys their missiles and then one of their warships, making Ronan order a retreat.[13]
On the way back to Earth, Goose claws and blinds Fury's left eye.[13]
Danvers gives a modified pager to Fury so he would contact her in case of emergencies, and departs Earth to help the Skrulls fly into deep space in search of a new home.[13]

12th
Kitang, the head of the Genetic Council, delivers the news to Maximus that his Terrigenesis has removed the Inhuman gene. Maximus is dismayed to find out that not only has he not received any powers, but has been reduced to simply a human - and that this strips him of any rightful inheritance to the throne.[29][84]
Kitang goes to the Boltagon family to warn them of the extent of Blackagar's abilities. He explains that his voice gives him one of the most powerful Inhuman abilities ever, and that none of them will ever hear him speak again. While he suggests keeping Blackagar in isolation, his parents rush to defend him. Maximus stands by, jealous at his brother's powers and the way he is being treated.[29][84]
Black Bolt wishes to know his parents' reason for approving the surgery, and in his panic, he accidentally speaks the question, "Why?" The destructive force of his voice obliterates his parents completely, to his horror. Maximus watches on in similar shock, realizing the unintended consequences of his actions.[29][88][87]

Wilder is suspicious of his motivations, but Jonah says that he simply wants to make the most of the location - but that he can only make the deal if Wilder is a free man, available to work with him. Henderson has an idea for how she can set him free, and Jonah says that this would mean the deal could indeed proceed.[109][44]
Wilder meets with his friend Darius Davis, who is incarcerated with him, and offers him a deal.

Trivia
The scene depicted in Spider-Man: Homecoming
In the film Spider-Man: Homecoming there is a scene where Spider-Man tries to apprehend Vulture's men in the Staten Island Ferry, the director Jon Watts pointed out at a mistake that occurred creating that action sequence: "“The only real flaw is that there are cars on the ferry, and there haven’t been cars allowed since the ’90s. So I’ll declare that in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, they never had these rules.” This proves that the reality from the Marvel Cinematic Universe sometimes differs from the real world reality.[111]

↑In AKA Start at the Beginning, Jessica Jones says to Malcolm Ducasse that if her brother Phillip had lived, "He would've been your age." Phillip was born c. February 1990 (see other references), making Ducasse's date of birth c. February 1990. Eka Darville's age at the times of filming Jessica Jones: Season 1, The Defenders: Season 1, and Jessica Jones: Season 2, working back from the times of filming, would place Ducasse's date of birth a little earlier, around February 1989, so it can be assumed that due to the slight leniency of the comment, Ducasse is slightly older than Phillip Jones, born around January 1990.
↑In AKA Start at the Beginning, it is shown that Phillip Jones was born in "1990" and died aged "10" (also shown in AKA WWJD) in "2000". His date of death is April 13, 2000 (see 2000s references), meaning he was born between January 1, 1990 and April 13, 1990, making his date of birth approximately February 1990.
↑ 6.06.16.26.36.46.56.6In Rise and Shine, events with Hale at the HYDRA Preparatory Academy are shown to be "28 years ago" before Spring/early Summer 2018. The "2 years ago" scenes in the episode show Ruby Hale reaching the same stage in her education on April 26, 2016, so it would make sense if it were the same time of year for her mother - the last Tuesday of April, so April 24, 1990.
↑Based on weighted calculations from Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Elizabeth Olsen's ages at the times of shooting each film in which they feature, and working backwards from the settings of each film. The calculations for these dates can be found in detail here.
↑In The Blessing of Many Fractures, while discussing "that last summer in the Hamptons with Dad," Joy says, "I was 12 years old." This last summer would have been July 2003, before Harold's reasoned death date of January 2004. In Rolling Thunder Cannon Punch, Joy says, "I was 13 when Dad died." If she was 12 in July 2003, but 13 in January 2004, this implies she turned 13 around October 2003, making her date of birth approximately October 1990.
↑In The H Word, it is said that Sean Miller was 25 when he died. With his death dated to May 2016, his date of birth would be approximately November 1990.
↑ 19.019.119.2Sometimes the Marvel Cinematic Universe alludes to people who existed in our world, and it is assumed they were born on the same day in the universe, for timeline purposes.
↑In Snow Gives Way, Danny says he was "born on April 1st." Danny says in Snow Gives Way, "I was 10 when we crashed," as well as Claire saying in The Blessing of Many Fractures that he "must've been a pretty gangsta 10-year-old," while looking at his iPod from before the crash. This would mean his year of birth would be 1991. This fits what is said by Ward Meachum in Shadow Hawk Takes Flight, that Danny is in his "mid-20s," he would be 24 going on 25, and in Rolling Thunder Cannon Punch, where Danny's grave shows his birth year as "199-" with the last number obscured.
↑In Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Quill says that he has been flying the Milano since he was 10 years old. With his birthday reasoned to be around late October 1980, this would put him learning to pilot the ship at around late April 1991.
↑ 26.026.126.2From the various references to past events, characters' ages in relation to events, rough dates, and timespans, as well as the actors' ages, past dates referred to in Luke Cage: Season 1 work out as explained here.
↑ 39.039.139.239.339.4In Black Panther, on July 1, 2016 (see references on 2016), T'Challa says that Klaue "escaped our pursuits for almost 30 years". W'Kabi later says, "For 30 years your father was in power and did nothing," referring to Klaue, and to the time that spanned between his attack and T'Chaka's death, dated to June 22, 2016. As well as this, W'Kabi says in a deleted scene, on July 4, 2016, that when it comes to Klaue, for "30 years, there's been no justice". While these pieces of dialogue would imply the attack was around 1987, the film also shows scenes set in "1992" which depict the attack as having been recent. Weighted calculations from all the evidence and factors gives April 24, 1989 as the approximate best-fitting date for the attack, and January 15, 1992 as the approximate best-fitting date for the "1992" scenes. The calculations for these dates and the other events are all relative to each other, and can be found in detail here.
↑In Refraction, it it shown that Victor Stein and Janet met "25 years ago" before December 2017, making it late 1992. It is 18:41 and sunset in Mauna Kea, and the two times in the year when sunset in Mauna Kea is 18:41 are around April 20th and August 26th each year. Therefore, it is most likely August 26, 1992. However, in the scene, one other student says to another, "Dude, have you seen Reservoir Dogs yet?" Reservoir Dogs got its limited release in the U.S. on October 23, 1992, so this scene has to be after then - the phrasing implying at least a couple of days. Therefore, the earliest possible this scene can be is October 25, 1992. This earliest possible date should be used for it to be as close as possible to the August 26th date for the sunset, so the scene is dated to October 25, 1992.
↑Jessica Jones was born around October 1985 (see 1980s references), so she was "8" from approximately October 1993 to October 1994, meaning this event was approximately April 1994.
↑ 58.058.158.2Jack Murdock's death is dated to January 21, 1995 (see other references). Considering how far Matt has got with learning Braille in the flashbacks of Cut Man at the time of his father's death, he would have been blinded around 6 months earlier, roughly July 19, 1994. The Cut Man flashback of him stitching his father before he was blinded would be around a month earlier, Saturday, June 18, 1994.
↑ 63.063.163.263.363.463.563.663.7In Stick, on the reasoned date of January 30, 2015, Matt says to Stick that he has been gone for "20 years", suggesting he left Matt around March 1995. In the flashbacks in Kinbaku, on the reasoned date of October 29, 2005, Matt tells Elektra that his father died "10 years" ago, suggesting that he died around September 1995. However, Jack Murdock died a couple of months before Stick met Matt, which was another several months before he left Matt. If there is around 8 months between these dates, working from the midpoint of June 21, 1995 4 months either way would suggest that Jack died around Saturday (shown on the poster), January 21, 1995 and Stick left Matt around November 19, 1995 (with them meeting about 2 months after Jack's death, 6 months before Stick leaves, around March 19, 1995).
↑Brian 'Sene' Marc was born in February 1986, with the middle of filming for Luke Cage: Season 1 being December 2015. Chico's scenes are set in November 2015, so working back, he would have been born around January 1986. In Moment of Truth, Chico says, "[my father] walked out on me and moms when I was 9," placing this around July 1995.
↑In Avengers: Infinity War, Gamora says, "I hated this room, this ship, I hated my life." Thanos replies, "You told me that, too, every day, for almost 20 years." This implies that his massacre of half her people occurred "almost 20 years" before Gamora left him on August 1, 2014 in Guardians of the Galaxy. This piece of evidence, along with Gamora's date of birth, calculated from Zoe Saldana and Ariana Greenblatt's ages, places the Massacre of the Zehoberei at approximately August 27, 1995. The connected calculations are all explained here.
↑ 76.076.176.276.3In Ant-Man and the Wasp, Bill Foster is shown to be approximately 56 (Laurence Fishburne's age at the time of filming) in Spring 2018, and Ava Starr is shown to be approximately 28 (Hannah John-Kamen's age at the time of filming) in Spring 2018. The flashbacks showing a young Ava show Bill Foster through a mix of Laurence Fishburne's son, Langston, 29 at the time of filming, and deageing Laurence Fishburne to how he looked c. 1986, aged 25. Ava is shown to be approximately 7 (RaeLynn Bratten's age at the time of filming). Overall, it can be calculated that Foster was born around July 1965 and Starr around August 1988, and the flashbacks are approximately November 2-4, 1995, when Foster is 30 and Starr is 7. Her being taken by S.H.I.E.L.D. agents can be approximated as about a month later, roughly December 8, 1995.
↑ 78.078.1In You Know My Steez, a flashback is shown of Willis training Carl at boxing. In the background is a notice about an event coming up on "Friday November 15" (which would be 1996) and then "Monday 6-10 January" (1997), placing this around early November 1996. It is shown in Take It Personal that in May of whichever year (it refers to the car being a "1993" model, so at least 1994 or 1995 to refer to it as such), when Willis was 18 and Carl was 17, they stole a 1993 corvette. It can be assumed, considering the fact that the actors already look older than 16 and 18 in the November 1996 flashback and Mike Colter's age at the times of filming suggesting Luke would have turned 17 around the early 1990s, as well as the way the brothers' story is told, it can be assumed that they stole the car in the first May after the November 1996 flashback, May 1997.
↑In AKA Sole Survivor, Jessica Jones says on May 4, 2017, "Leslie Hansen worked at Metro-General in the '90s and then nothing. 20 years of web presence completely wiped out." 20 years prior to May 4, 2017 could specifically mean approximately May 4, 1997, or could more generally mean "2017 - 20 years = 1997" (so approximated at July 1, 1997), or even more generally "2010s - 2 decades = 1990s" (so approximated at December 31, 1994-January 1, 1995). Putting more weight on the most specific and least weight on the least specific, it can be calculated that Hansen stopped working at Metro-General around January 19, 1997.
↑In Cold Steel, Frank Castle says he drank Boone's Farm intensely until he "was 20". Castle's date of birth is approximated as November 15, 1976, which would mean the midpoint of him being 20 (the approximation for when he stopped) is May 16, 1997.
↑In AKA Start at the Beginning, Malcolm Ducasse says, "My folks started me building when I was about 7." Ducasse was born around January 1990 (see other references), so he was "about 7" from approximately January 1997 to January 1998, meaning this event was approximately July 1997.
↑In Rise and Shine, Talbot says to Hale on September 17, 2017 (see 2017 references), "I've known you 20 years." This could refer specifically to them having met around September 17, 1997, but could be more generally "2017 - 20 years = 1997", the midpoint of which, for estimation, would be July 2, 1997. Overall, putting more weight in the more precise but taking into account the more general as well, the date can be calculated as approximately August 22, 1997.
↑In AKA God Help the Hobo, Trish Walker says, "I haven't had any privacy since I was 12, when my mother sold it." Her date of birth is approximated at June 1985 (see 1980s references), so this is between June 1997 and June 1998, approximately December 1997.
↑Jessica Jones was born c. October 1985 (see 1980s references), so she was "12" from approximately October 1997 to October 1998, meaning this event was approximately April 1998.
↑In Metamorphosis, Amy Minoru is said to have been "16" when she died, which is dated to December 4, 2015, meaning she was born between December 5, 1998 and December 4, 1999. Amanda Suk was born on July 30, 1986, making her 31 in August 2017, the middle of filming for Runaways: Season 1, very much suggesting that Minoru must have been at least 16-going-on-17, for a 31-year-old actor to have any plausibility in playing the character. Therefore, it can be approximated that Minoru was born in December 1998, making her almost-17 at her time of death on December 4, 2015. As well as this, in the flashback in Doomsday showing the Minorus in 2001, Nico is only around 4 months old, making it May 2001, and Amy is roughly 2½, indeed making her date of birth approximately late 1998.
↑ 109.0109.1In Kingdom, it is shown that Wilder meeting Jonah was "18 years ago" from December 11, 2017. This would suggest approximately December 11, 1999, but also in the general sense of "18 years" before 2017, 1999, any time in 1999 (average July 2, 1999). Putting more weight on the exact 18 years, but considering the possibility that it could be any point in 1999, overall, this can be calculated to approximately ([December 11, 1999] × 2 + [July 2, 1999] × 1) ÷ 3 = October 18, 1999.
