Plot

After being attacked by Hydra,

Hydra member. Sending Strucker to Portugal, Malick later contacts Ward, offering him an alliance and telling him Strucker's location as a show of faith. May and Morse steal Strucker's safe deposit box, and Leo Fitz
traces the fake passports inside, finding further Strucker bank accounts and learning his location.

Meanwhile,

Alphonso "Mack" Mackenzie
spy on him, and Hunter shoots Banks with an I.C.E.R. so they can collect a blood sample. The DNA analysis proves Banks is not an Inhuman, but after finding a text on his phone regarding a delivery to Endotex Labs, the three agents go there and discover it is the facility where the Inhumans are being held by the ATCU. Daisy is shocked to find the Inhumans are being kept in suspended animation, and is further riled to see Coulson there. Though Coulson has misgivings, Price insists suspended animation is the only way to contain the Inhumans until the ATCU can find a cure to reverse their Terrigenesis. She also admits that her husband died from cancer years earlier, and that she genuinely wants to be allies with Coulson, if not friends.

May and Morse arrive in Portugal to find Kebo torturing Strucker, and while Morse fights Kebo and fatally electrocutes him in a swimming pool, May subdues the other Hydra agents and frees a mortally wounded Strucker. Before losing consciousness, he reveals to a horrified May that Andrew Garner is the real Lash, and that he killed his Hydra attackers and then set the explosion in the convenience store to cover his tracks.

In the end tag, Daisy shares a brief phone conversation with

Lincoln Campbell, who is still off the grid after the ATCU tried to capture him.[b]
Andrew asks her to try to persuade Lincoln to come to the Playground, secretly plotting to kill him.
