In an interview with TVLine, Agents of SHIELD showrunner Jed Whedon spoke about what to expect from the season five finale that airs this Friday.

After the SHIELD agents traveled to the future: “The problem was that all of the clues we have as to what happened were so nebulous, and we keep thinking we’re encountering them. And now we’re facing one that we know is the definitive moment, where we have to decide our path.”

On the tensions among the team: “We can tell from the last couple episodes that tensions are high. Everyone will weigh in on this in a different way, and they know that no matter which path they choose, lives will be lost.”

On possible deaths: “It’s a question mark…We know who made it [to that future] and who didn’t, and we’ll have to see how that plays out.”
