Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Wednesdays 9:00 PM on ABCAgents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 5 Quotes
Daisy: I-- I can’t do what you’re asking of me. I can’t do it.
Coulson: You’ve always been capable of more than you imagined.
Daisy: No. Not without you. You found me alone in an alley, and you gave me everything. A home, a belief, solid ground to stand on. That was all you! You were what I believe in.
Coulson: You believe in yourself. And you should.
Daisy: Not if you want a symbol. *You* are the symbol. There is no SHIELD without you! There’s nothing without you!
May: Is this [Coulson’s impending death] why we took a step back?
Coulson: The last thing you need is to waste your time on another lost cause.
May: Who *I* waste my time on is for me to decide. It’s not like you to just roll over. There has to be a way out of this.
Coulson: I’ve come to terms with it. I got a second chance. I made a difference in a few people’s lives. I don’t want to be greedy. It’s time to make space for somebody else.
May [realizing]: For Daisy.
Coulson: I won’t be around forever. And, despite appearances to the contrary, neither will you. We need fresh blood to lead the team.
May: It’s more than a team, and you know it. None of us are giving up on you.
Coulson: Well, great. Because I have every intention of walking out of that basement. Just because I made peace with dying doesn’t mean I’m in a hurry. Now, do you want to help me get into this gear Fitz has for me? It’s super sexy.
Coulson: So you admit that you’re not real, that I created you in my head.
Mike Peterson: Of course. But you know something deeper. You’re here to face it.
Coulson: Face my fear.
Mike Peterson: How am I your fear, Phil? No. I mean, face *facts*.
Coulson: What “facts”?
Mike Peterson: That this is *all* in your head.
Coulson: Are you telling me that I’m still in TAHITI?
Mike Peterson: Coulson, I’m telling you you’ve never *been* to TAHITI. Or Malta, Puerto Rico, or outer space, or the Framework, or the future. You’re on the table, Coulson. Code Blue.
Mike Peterson: What makes more sense? You tell me. That you were brought back from the dead after many days, your mind programmed with false memories, a world with alternate realities and rocks that tear holes in space-time? Or that your brain is being stimulated with electricity to revive it, and your consciousness is trying to make sense of random synapses firing off in your brain?
Coulson: That’s not true.
Mike Peterson: You know it’s true. Loki ran a scepter through your heart, and we are trying desperately to bring you back. But it isn’t working.
General Hale: We had them right where we wanted them!
Ruby: We didn’t *have* Daisy Johnson! You promised me Daisy Johnson!
General Hale: She didn’t show up tonight.
Ruby: Well, I think if I keep cutting her friends’ arms off, she will.
Daisy: How do you show up in another time and, like, *immediately* get arrested?
Deke: Have you *tried* Zima?
Coulson: These things look roomier from the outside.
Mack: It’ll get us where we need to go.
May: Hey, could be worse.
Simmons: True. We could be enslaved by an alien sociopath in a dystopian future.
Mack: Or we could be trapped in a virtual reality fascist state.
Fitz: Or stuck at the bottom of the ocean.
Yo-Yo: Or stopping a crazy robot lady.
Simmons: Or falling out of a plane.
Mack: Fighting Daisy’s mom.
Coulson: Or fighting Daisy’s dad.
May: Or *dancing.*
Fitz: What’re you observing now?
Noah: Various potential threats. You’d be surprised how frequently SHIELD is mentioned.
May: We have a small but active fanbase.
Coulson: Did you *really* think after everything we’ve been through, you and me, that there was any universe in which I left you behind?
Daisy: Even with all of the risks--
Coulson: Don’t care. I need you here.
Coulson: I’ll stay here with Daisy. When she wakes up, she’ll have questions.
May: When she wakes up, she’s gonna wanna kill you.
General Hale: How about I bring us breakfast? We haven’t done that in a long time.
Ruby: No thanks, but if I turn 11 again, you got it!
Deke: The machine… uses the little piece to trigger the bigger piece through space?
Fitz: Yeah. Or time.
Simmons: It mirrors the harmonic resonant frequency of photons which can exist out of space-time.
Deke: Yeah, yeah, I hear you say words, but what do they mean?
