- "I thought that if... I looked like her, then maybe... maybe there's a chance we could be together."
"Well, maybe we could. But not as Skye or May. No. It has to be with you." - ―Kara Palamas and Grant Ward[src]

Plot

This section needs a rewrite |
Because of Skye's newfound status as an Inhuman, Andrew Garner recommends that Skye be removed from active duty S.H.I.E.L.D. personnel, and be transferred to a remote location, where she will wear gloves that absorb her powers and calm her.
Grant Ward and Agent 33 hunt down the man who created the Photostatic Veil. He fixes her mask so she can revert to her original appearance, albeit still scarred, and change her appearance to anyone she wishes. Using the technology, they infiltrate Glenn Talbot's base and free Sunil Bakshi, whom S.H.I.E.L.D. had handed over as a sign of good faith. From Bakshi they learned about Agent 33's life before Daniel Whitehall brainwashed her, including her name, Kara, before brainwashing him themselves.
Alphonso Mackenzie introduces Lance Hunter to Robert Gonzales and the leadership of the "real S.H.I.E.L.D.", which Hunter learns was founded on the ideal of transparency, rather than Nick Fury's mantra of compartmentalization. They see Coulson and his erratic behavior as a threat needing to be neutralized, and try to convince Hunter to join them. However, Hunter escapes, and Bobbi Morse is sent to attack Coulson's S.H.I.E.L.D..
