Synopsis for "The Hiding Place!"
Fury thinks back on S.H.I.E.L.D.'s 1st battle with Hydra, when Laura Brown-- who had joined only to convince her father to give up his mad dream of world conquest-- saved his life and helped defeat them. As the President pushes thru a pardon for her, she's being transported by Gabe & Jasper-- whose car is attacked by Hydra. Fury & Dugan, in a captured Hydra saucer, go to rescue the trio. The Supreme Hydra dons a new disguise, that of "Agent Bronson", a S.H.I.E.L.D. man currently their prisoner. "Bronson" arrives at the Heli-Carrier just in time to join the team racing to help Fury.
