Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. S05E08 "The Last Day" Recap

Coulson, Daisy, Fitz, Simmons, and Deke all survive the crash and are reunited with May in the Zephyr, having much to catch up on. After being reunited they meet Samuel Voss, who knew Deke's father.

Back on the Lighthouse, Kasius enacts revenge on the people by cutting off access to necessary resources. Flint and Yo-Yo bring Mack to track down some weapons Fitz had hidden, but in the process learn that Kasius has released the Vrellnexians onto the lower levels. Together, they defeat these Vrellnexians and are able to rescue the residents still alive after the attack.

The rest of the team attempts to understand Robin's cryptic, child-like messages and discover a machine built into the Zephyr. Fitz and Simmons try to find a way to remove Daisy's inhibitor but find that it is currently beyond their resources and skills. May and Coulson come in after learning that there is a piece of the time monolith in Voss' locker. They'd like to use it to try to get back to their time and prevent any of this from ever happening.

Throughout the episode, flashback to the past show May taking care of Robin as a child and encouraging Fitz to build his machine so they'll be able to travel through time. Conversely, Yo-Yo is closed off and aggressive.

Deke interrogates Voss about the piece of the time monolith, saying that his father never would've left it behind, and Voss knocks him out. Voss then tries to kill Daisy and stabs Robin to try to stop her from giving the team the answers they are after. In her dying moments, Robin is comforted by May. Robin tells her about their history and how May can save the world, which will require Flint.
