While the latest promo strongly alluded to it, it looks like the next episode of Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. will indeed see the chronicoms go after Mack's (Henry Simmons) parents, which will undoubtedly send the team scrambling to as they race against the clock to save him from timeline erasure.
Elsewhere, Daisy (Chloe Bennet) and Sousa (Enver Gjokaj) will find themselves in serious trouble when they cross paths with Nathaniel Malick and his goons in the field, which is going to lead to Agent Phil Coulson (Clark Gregg) taking some seriously drastic measures to save the future.
ABC has released five new promotional stills from the upcoming episode, spotlighting the villains of the hour, although we do get one cool shot of Agent Daniel Sousa in action.
