This show had the episode (“Spacetime”) that pushed me over the edge in the matter of
whether to include precognition/premonitions in my time travel list. But when Fitz has quotes
such as “You guys, there is no time—” how could I not? It may take me a while to pull
in other visions-of-the-future stories, and I won’t include obvious non-examples (such as
predicting the future based on elements that are available in the present moment), but I
shall persevere. Here’s the reasoning behind my new ruling: If you (or Daisy) are actually
getting a picture of the future, then Occam’s Razor says that information about the future
is most likely traveling through time. Case closed.
Coulson: Like, in Terminator, if John
Connor’s alive and able to send his friend back in time to save his mom to make sure
he’s born, doesn’t that mean he doesn’t have to? Lincoln: I, uh, never saw the original Terminator. Coulson: You’re off the
team.
