Ep 12. Who You Really Are

S.H.I.E.L.D. is back with its second season and with a ton of new plot twists and turns. In the 12th episode, named "Who You Really Are," the team gets to investigate an extraterrestrial presence that has landed on Earth. It turns out that the mysterious specimen is a Kree warrior who has lost its memory and doesn't seem to remember its mission or identity. The team must help the alien regain its memory while also protecting Earth from any threat it might pose.

The episode starts with Sif, an Asgardian warrior, arriving at a small town to investigate the presence of the Kree warrior, Vintac. Meanwhile, Coulson is notified of a blue-skinned alien in the area, and he sends his people out to investigate. Fitz and Simmons are excited to study the new alien specimen, but Skye takes charge and orders them to back off until they can determine whether the alien is someone to be trusted or not.

As the team tries to track down Vintac and learn more about him, they discover that he possesses superhuman strength and agility, making him a formidable opponent even without his memories. Further complicating matters is the fact that Vintac's memories begin to slowly return as the episode progresses and his true mission and identity starts to reveal itself.

Simmons quickly realizes that Vintac is Kree, warning the team and revealing that he is one of the aliens that helped create the Inhumans on Earth. This new revelation only adds to the complexity of the situation as the team worries about the potential impact Vintac's presence may have on Earth and its inhabitants.

While Vintac gradually remembers his past, he starts acting more aggressively towards Sif and the rest of the team, requiring them to intervene before he can do any real damage. Coulson and Sif attempt to reason with Vintac and get him to remember who he is, but their efforts are continually thwarted by Vintac's intermittent violent outbursts that leave Coulson torn between trying to help Vintac regain his memories and protecting those around him.

As Vintac's memories finally start to come together, it becomes clear that his true mission is not to cause harm to Earth but to retrieve and bring back an object of great importance to his people. The team unites and embarks on a dangerous mission to help Vintac complete his mission and regain his identity once and for all.
