Nick Fury and Daisy discuss their situation. S.H.I.E.L.D. has been under the control of Hydra since the beginnning. All of the work and intelligence he has done over decades have all been compromised to Hydra.

Later, the secret warriors are in their street clothes and eating out at a Chinese restaurant. Through the dinner, Phobos revealed what the future holds for them: Druid will be best hero among them, Slingshot will be hurt badly, Stonewall will find out who he really is, Quake will be one of the greats but getting there will suck, and Hellfire is going to die...

Back at the base, Nick Fury finally reveals the situation to the Secret Warriors. Nick Fury and the team needs to work on intelligence. And one of them has to pose as an agent of Hydra.

On the opposite of the spectrum....

Three months ago: Ichor, underwater city of Hydra. The supreme Hydra, Baron Wolfgang von Strucker, dispatched a quartet of Skrull infiltrators. Realizing that the entire city maybe compromised, he initiated a self-destruct sequence that destroyed Ichor killing the 15,000 loyal Hydra servants within.

One month ago, Strucker encamped himself within the mountain compound Gehenna in New Zealand. He learns that Nick Fury has finally learned the truth after all these years. With that, he decides that the time for being subtle is over, and prepares the Grand Chamber.

Two weeks ago, Baron Strucker assembles the council of the Hydra organization:
  • Kraken

  • Madame Hydra

  • The Hive

  • Viper

Two days ago, Resurrection Temple of the Hand. Strucker and his team stormed the temple and bargained with Grandmaster of the Hand to resurrect a someone in exchange for Strucker's head as the Grandmaster's bedpan. Agreeing to the terms, he and a number of his men resurrect the body. To his despair, the resurrection consumed them, turning all of them to dust. And standing before them is the resurrected Gorgon, the mutant with the ability to turn people to stone.
