Age𝔍nts of Shield season 7 – its final season – was always going to go out with a bang. What we didn’t expect, however, was just how much time travel meddling LMD Coulson and the gang would be doing, including one moment that has far-reaching consequences for the rest of the MC🃏U.

Stuck in 1930s New York, LMD (Life Model Decoy, it’s a long story) Coulson and his fellow Agents of Shield end up infiltrating a pꦍarty targeted by the Chronicoms (H/T ).

While at first 🔯it seems the era-spanning beings have the future President Roosevelt (who goes on to form Shield) in their sights, it t💎urns out that they want to assassinate a barman called Freddy.

But he’s not just a plain old barman. He’s Freddy Malick, father of Gideon Malick (Powers Boothe), who appears as a member of the World Security Council during 2012’s Avengersꩵ and is later revealed to be the head of modern-day Hydra in ꧅Agents of Shield.

Yet, Coulson and the crew now have to⛦ protect him. Without Freddy, Hydra doesn’t get to operate in the shadowy fringes of the MCU. And while that may sounds like a good thing – no Hydra equals no Shield. So, in a bizarre twist of fate, it falls on the Agents o🐻f Shield to stop any harm from coming to Malick.

In effect, without these time-travel shenanigans, multiple major events in the MCU would never happen: from Captain America and the Winter Soldier bringing Hydra into the spotlight and the ꦫdownfall of Shield to the likes of Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch harnessing their powers through Hydra experimentation. Without Coulson and the team, then, the MCU would be completely different.
