On the midseason premiere of Season 3 we saw that President Matthew Ellis reunited with Director Coulson. They discussed about the global concern of Inhumans spreading, for some this was a nice crossover with the MCU, but for me it was quite small. The idea of having the President of the United States appear in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. only to have a little meeting with Coulson was ridicolous.
Connecting the dots there is potential for a major event that could set up Bobbi and Hunter's upcoming spin-off. What would put you in EVERYONE's most wanted list? Easy, killing the President of the United States. I think that the plan of Gideon Malick is to kill President Ellis and in the way frame Lance Hunter and Barbara Morse.
This would cause not only Bobbi and Hunter being wanted by the U.S. Government but also their own friends. This is a crazy theory and it might probably not happen, but here is my evidence about this:
1. Most Wanted's Sypnosis
MARVEL’S MOST WANTED (aka Mockingbird)
STUDIO: Marvel Television
TEAM: Jeffrey Bell (w, ep), Paul Zbyszewski (w, ep), Jeph Loeb (ep), Jim Chory (ep)
LOGLINE: Centers on Bobbi Morse (a.k.a. Mockingbird) and Lance Hunter of “Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., two ex-spies and ex-spouses who are on the run with no friends, no S.H.I.E.L.D. and a long list of enemies looking to claim a bounty on their heads. Able to trust no one but each other, Bobbi and Hunter form an uneasy alliance with Dominic Fortune, a rogue adventurer with a wealth of resources and even more adversaries, who agrees to protect them so long as they help him with his own agenda. These two heroes will help anyone in need, all while trying to uncover the conspiracy that put their own lives in jeopardy. CAST: Adrianne Palicki, Nick Blood, Delroy Lindo.
The sypnosis talks about them two being hunted and with a bounty on their heads, aswell S.H.I.E.L.D. trying to hunt them. They're out of friends and they must uncover the conspiracy that put their lives at jeopardy, this could be a conspiracy about the murder of the President.

As you can read in this sypnosis, Bobbi and Hunter become involved in an assassination plot, the tagline says the S.H.I.E.L.D. team will be changed forever and Powers Boothe (Gideon Malick) and William Sadler (President Matthew Ellis) are guest starring. This could create a real conflict that ties in with the MCU in a big way.
Do you think that Bobbi will be on the run for "murdering" the President of the United States? Is Gideon Malick intelligent enough to frame S.H.I.E.L.D.'s best tactical agents?
