Episode Summary & Review
Summary
Coulson and the others meet up with the surface survivors, while Mack, Elena, and Flint battle the Roaches that Kasius has unleashed on the Lighthouse humans.
Our Take
A grim hour that finally shows us how the future fell apart, and the Vrellnexian attack on the Lighthouse gives Mack and Yo-Yo some genuinely tense material. The flashback structure works better than it should, though Kasius still feels like a villain running on fumes. Worth watching for the world-building alone, even if the pacing sags in the middle.
