Spoilers ahead for the third episode of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 7, called “Alien Commies from the Future!”
In the process, S.H.I.E.L.D. seemingly debunked a theory that would have meant very big things for the final season.
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. continued its adventures through time with “Alien Commies from the Future,” which sent the heroes from 1931 (where they saved Hydra but lost Enoch) to Area 51 circa 1955.
The Chronicoms’ goal was to take out the brain trust of S.H.I.E.L.D. (including Agent Carter’s Daniel Sousa) in the ’50s and therefore prevent it from becoming an organization that could stop them by 2020, and the good guys had to get creative to save the past while also staying alive.
