The person who shot the two dudes at the end was a woman in disguise! That was no man. Homegirl was swaying her hips. I bet it's the new housemate. I swear.

Ezio, you drunk again? Lol.

Good episode. Lacking the action of the first 2, but that fight scene was great, and the story moved along nicely. So, is Sousa Peggy's future husband? He was injured in the war, maybe one of the men rescued by Cap...Peggy did say her future husband was rescued by Cap. I dunno, they could be messing with us.

@PAF I'm thinking Angie is a proto-Black Widow. Leviathan is gonna be behind the MCU's version of The Red Room.

@homodrone

That would be kind of cool honestly. What brings you to that theory tho?

@PAF

The actress playing Angie played a spy of Russian descent on The CW's Nikita.
Leviathan is essentially the Soviet/Communist answer to Hydra.
Agent Carter is post war and inspired by the nuclear arms race.
Black Widow isn't just Natasha Romanova's code name in the comics. She was one of many girl orphans who were experimented on, trained to kill and brainwashed into thinking they trained with the Russian ballet.

With the Russians playing villain, and the need for a proper female villain, the answer is Black Widow. Angie is so intent on being Peggy's friend. But why? Because any good spy would know to keep an eye on the woman who helped Captain America take down Hydra.

Also the new room mate studying ballet is a planted misdirect/easter egg. If anyone is the evil russian lady spy, it's the new girl from 'Ohio' studying 'ballet'. No one is going to suspect the pissy automat waitress with a strong new york accent.

@homodrone

I see. I know BW backstory already she's one of my fav characters but hmmm I can see it being a misdirect but idk, that person at the end looked like they had blonde hair tucked in the hat that's I believe it's the new girl. Then again Peggy wore a blonde wig going undercover so who knows. We'll see tho.

I'm going to try and watch that scene again. That was no man tho.

who knows, maybe we are supposed to be suspicious of Angie when the twist will be that Dorothy is the evil lady spy.

Very impressive my Canadian brother! I like that theory. I'm almost too stoned to follow it, but damn.

@PAF I think you're right. It's the roommate. Loomed like a woman. The way the Individual moved. Their figure looked slim too.

In what way is Stark hurting Cap's legacy I wonder...it seems like he's doing something directly tied to Cap. Has he mass produced a super soldier serum? ?? Also, it'd be cool to see Peggy visit Brooklyn, where she met Cap and his home borough, to revisit memories. Maybe brooklyn back then put up a Cap memorial.

My biggest concern with Agent Carter was that it would feel pointless. We already know she helps found SHIELD, gets married, and lives to a ripe old age. We already know SHIELD was compromised from within from its earliest days.

The best thing about this series is that it doesn't feel pointless. It feels like a fully worthy chapter in the MCU in its own right, including introducing Jarvis like we've never seen him. It even has that Mad Men vibe of how foreign the 40's feels compared to the modern world, and in particular a single woman's life in that era. Really, just great stuff.

The narrative is a bit uneven, and I haven't really been blown away by anything in particular, yet, but I am really digging it so far.


@homodrome and PAF

Interesting stuff. I didn't notice a womanly gait on the shooter, but had already assumed they've gotten Bridget Regan for more than just a walk-on as a girl from Ohio. Now that you mention it, I can totally see her as a Golden Age proto-Black Widow (whether it's a red herring or not it still an open question).



Are there seriously no good pictures of her online? Whatever.

Leviathan may be the beginings of the red room that trained young female Russian orphans. Hints at black widow s origins. There were many black widows. Romanoff was obviously the last. I think the roommate is a Russian spy and product of red room

@ComicsBornAndBred

Yup.

Like AOS set up inhumans, agent carter may set up red room and kgb...black widows beginings

@Spock0Clock

May fav pic of her from Paolo Rivera



But I don't think Homodrone meant her specifically. She has like supernatural powers and works for the devil.

Yelena Belova? The other Black Widow. I would rather see her in the past as a villain, than in the present as a villain.

@Crabnado holy sweet [frick]! THE CONTESSA! [frick]ing sweet jesus. What if she IS the MCU version of Contessa, working for Leviathan (the KGB Hydra) and a sleeper agent that is the product of the beta Black Widow Program and the Red Room. They don't even need to say red room or black widow. They can just have her as Contessa and allude to The Red Room when they explore Leviathan. Then in Age of Ultron, Natasha's flashbacks will draw the connection that it was the evolution of the program.

They are never gonna use The Contessa for Fury in the MCU and she doesn't really jive with Coulson. Working her into Agent Carter would be the perfect way to utilize a character witch a rich history. It's the same way they took the Howling Commandos and reworked them for Cap's story.

Frigging loving the show! Why the break? Is Obama doing the state of the union address? I'd rather have had a 1 hour premiere and not taken a week off.
GhostDog
GhostDog - 1/13/2015, 8:49 PM


I'm thinking she'll be yelena belova but I could see Contessa mayyyyyybe
GhostDog
GhostDog - 1/13/2015, 8:51 PM
You could tweak contessa and make her origins connected to red room. Leviathan isn't really related to red room but it could because they're both Russian. I'd like to think yelena makes more sense

why are they resting next week?
henniedebeer
henniedebeer - 1/13/2015, 10:28 PM
@Owlman88 - I'm not sure, but because of the 2 hour US premiere, they maybe need a week to make up? Here in South Africa we get one episode a week, as I think was the original plan. I have no idea how the UK's doing it, our countries are normally on the same schedule (we both get Age of Ultron a week earlier).
beeaey
beeaey - 1/14/2015, 12:09 AM
i think the 2-week break has to do with the president's state of the union speech.

wild guess, tho. i honestly don't know why. i thought re-runs are dead in today's world...unless it's ncis lol

The only part that seemed a little "off" was when Peggy walked into the Jarvis interrogation with the stolen car report, thereby completely clearing his name??? Didn't her boss already say that filing a stolen car report after engaging in illegal activity with it was a logical thing for Jarvis to have done? And they then totally dismissed the threat of the old treason charge, which obviously weighed heavily on ol' Jarvis. The ending to that scene seemed contrived and out of left field. Otherwise, another strong episode!

Dottie is definitely the shooter.

First agent carter article I've seen without at least one Hayley Atwell cleavage picture in the comments. Can't say I'm happy about it, but I cant say I'm upset

It's nice to see a mature discussion of the show without a flame war stirring. Could CBM users be growing up a little bit?
MercwithMouth
MercwithMouth - 1/14/2015, 7:16 AM
@BlanketMan

It did seem off...but it makes sense. The police report doesn't necessarily clear him from suspicion, but it takes away their ability to hold him. That was why they had to show Dooley with the report claiming it's "lost" or some shit. Because until it's presented, they can hold him on the claim that he may have never filed a report.

Also, the old treason charge was just intimidation, to try and make him sweat. It was a dropped charge that had no real bearing. Thompson just wanted to see how he would react, and if he would mention Stark's "influence".

@frova

Our sincerest apologies...here...
