There are just a few weeks left before the "Agents of SHIELD" season 5 comes back to television. With how season 4 left its fans on a cliffhanger, the titles of the first two episodes of season 5 seem very fitting.

According to ComicBook, the two-hour premiere episodes are titled "The Orientation Part One" and "The Orientation Part Two." Season 4 ended with Coulson and his team successfully saving the world with the help of the Ghost Rider. In the middle of the celebration, they were interrupted and abducted by anonymous men. The next thing they knew was that they found themselves in Space.

Having to wake up to a completely different environment can definitely make anyone feel disoriented, hence making the premiere titles fitting. This is also taking into consideration the first 20 minutes of the episode that was shown during the New York Comic Con last month.

A lot of things happened within those 20 minutes. To summarize, the video directly picks up from the last minutes of season 4. Coulson wakes up only to find himself in the middle of a battle inside the spaceship. Someone tells him that the ship is, apparently, under attack by some sort of aliens. As he makes his way through, he finds Mack, Yo-Yo, and Simmons. Until this point, fans would expect that the whole team would be there.

May was revealed to be separated having her own troubles dealing with a mysterious figure. The 20-minute footage ended with aliens saying that "[Fitz] isn't on the list" — yet another cliffhanger.

Seeing the environment they find themselves in, it looks a lot like Marvel's "Guardians of the Galaxy." In fact, a Star Lord-like character enters with the matching jacket and helmet which almost undeniably is that of Star Lord, as pointed out by Movie Pilot. However, not much else is known at this point. Fans would not have to wait long as the two-hour premiere is set to air on Friday, Dec. 1, at 8 p.m. EST on ABC.
