Agent Carter Season 1 Episode 4: The Blitzkriegbutton

​Brant Englestein writes the fourth episode of Agent CTharter. This episode kicks off with Jarvis pretending to sell to some criminals while Carter sneaks around the back to take them out. They then go meet with Stark who takes out the last bad guy standing. They sneak Stark back to his house but things get tricky when agents are standing outside his house. Carter takes Stark back to her place and sneaks him up. Remember the land lady is crazy strict about men being upstairs.

She puts Stark into the dumb waiter but the Land Lady catches her. She leads Carter back to her room, forcing her to leave the dumb waiter behind. She tells Carter that she isn't old enough to take care of herself or keep herself from messing around with boys. The land lady makes Carter open the dump waiter upstairs in front of her. Lucky Stark is gone and her bag is left there. She waits till the land lady is gone and then goes looking for him. It isn't long before she finds him in a nearby room messing around with her neighbor. Carter forces him to leave. She can't let people find out that she is hiding Stark in her room.

Thomson takes charge of the SSR for the time being and he tells everyone that no one is leaving or resting until they get some headway against Stark. He orders Carter to go get their lunch. They really look down on her since she is a woman. It isn't right.

Sousa breaks ranks and goes to look for information on his own. Doing what he calls real police work. Carter comes home to find Stark in yet another girls room. This man just can't keep it in his pants. Sousa brings in a man who he thinks has some information on who called him in the tip the other day, the tip we know was called in by Jarvis, Thompson gives Sousa a hard time for it. He is so full of himself. He makes Sousa to let the bum go because he isn't giving out information right off the bat. Sousa fights him on it.

Stark tells Carter that the weapon the SSR recovered in the last episode could wipe out the cities power and that he needs her to switch it out with a fake one so that the government can't use it. She agrees and gets in the car with Jarvis. Meanwhile Sousa is getting nowhere with the bum when Thomson comes in and offers him food. He starts talking and tells them about a girl, not the blonde in the picture and a guy who went onto the boat. It is all he saw before the cops came. What we know is that it is the same girl. That it is Carter. Sousa is hunting Carter and doesn't know it.

The Chief is visiting a Nazi prisoner to find out information on the  Battle of Finow in exchange he will give him a pill so he can kill himself and make it painless. He tells the chief that no one died by German hands in the battle and chief gives him the pill. We find out that the pill is really just a breath mint. He played him.

Carter doesn't trust Jarvis or Stark and instead of bringing the device back to them she opens it and finds a vial of blood. She pockets it and leave. She ends up in a room with Thompson who asks her why she works here? As a woman she will never equal with a man and she should accept that. He is clearly a little too deep into that bottle that he is drinking.

Carter confronts Stark about the blood and he admits that it is Captain America's. He says that he lies to protect himself. One viral went to the government and one went to Howard. The Government is almost finished with theirs and they will keep Starks. She thinks he just wants it for the money. She tears him down. She tells him to get lost and she is done working to help clear his name. Meanwhile the white hair man who has been following her all episode shows up outside and tries to sneak into Carter's room when the next door neighbor tells him she wants his gun. She shows off some cool ass moves as she snaps his neck.

Jarvis comes up to Carter and she tells him she could tell he knew all along. He then goes to Stark and tells him that this is his fault but Stark says that Jarvis can get her back on his side. This of course leads us to the Stan Lee Cameo! He is sitting next to Stark as he gets his shoes cleaned.

The chief comes back to his office and catches up with what has been happening while he was gone. Carter comes home, Stark is gone and her neighbor has hid the dead body under her bed. Carter turns on the music and starts to hammer away at the wall behind a picture so that she can hide the blood there. She then puts the bricks back in place and rehangs the picture. The chief gets a mystery message that we don't get to see yet and thus ends another great episode in the life of Peggy Carter. With a part of Steve Rogers in it! Well his blood anyways.
