The physique landed in Izel’s dimension, the place somebody like her named Pachakutiq took possession of the physique and fashioned this Sarge identification. Latest episodes confirmed that the recollections that Sarge has are from Coulson, however that they weren’t solely clear earlier than. He now remembers Melinda Might (Ming Na-Wen) and Daisy Johnson (Chloe Bennet) however as his spouse and daughter. This was believed to be all that he may recall from Coulson’s previous life, however the latest episode “From the Ashes” proves in any other case.
The penultimate episode of season 6 featured Daisy struggling to come back to understand with the likelihood that Sarge could possibly be Coulson in any manner. She noticed him as a weapon to make use of towards Izel that will additionally rid the workforce from ever having to see the acquainted face once more. Daisy snapped Sarge’s neck with the hope that extra recollections of Izel’s plan and their earlier life would floor. It initially appeared as if all this did was make Sarge extra highly effective, as he knocked down a wall along with his naked arms. Then, Daisy’s hope of extra recollections coming to Sarge was confirmed, simply not how she anticipated.

She fails to undergo with it, although when Sarge calls her Skye. Whereas Daisy is her actual title, Skye is the title she used to go by earlier than studying about her precise previous.

We have not seen any proof of this, however since Sarge and Izel’s race are inhabiting our bodies on this realm, Coulson could also be all that will be left if Pachakutiq/Sarge vacated the physique. How or why that will occur stays to be seen, however theoretically, it may occur and go away the present with the actual Coulson forward of the ultimate season. Now we’ll simply should see what precisely Brokers of SHIELD does over the last episode of season 6 to wrap this up or if this plot will proceed into season 7.
