Lucio is murdered by Gutierrez while Malick falls captive into the hands of Campbell.

Campbell objects, but to no avail.
The same night Johnson visits him and offers to set him free but he refuses. He catches her motives and recognizes that she is under Hive's control. After which Johnson leaves, but not before creating an earthquake that destroys the S.H.I.E.L.D. base.
Speaking about this shocking turn, actress Chloe Bennet, who plays Daisy, told EW in an interview that it was not easy for her to go through the change in her character. When the team told her about the twist, she was distraught and tried to defend Daisy as she is very close to her character.
