I mean, Wilkes is quite used to being mistreated because of his skin colour. In such situation I imagine him being cautios not to enrage the whole white population of LA. His carelessness seems odd to me.<br /><br />Another thing: the force that lifted all this trucks and soldiers didn't seem to affect the camera. I can give some leniency to the fact that big chunks of earth weren't ripped off and lifted as well, but camera stillness seems strange.<br /><br />All in all, that's a good episode. Mr. Jarvis' martial arts training kinda remided me of Sarah Michelle Gellar's role in "Scooby Doo" (which, of course, I only watched because of Sarah Michelle Gellar).<br /><br />And Sousa's reaction is quite believable, I think. Yes, he knows that Peggy is quite capable of defending herself. It doesn't make him worry about her any less.migmithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06981055611018991476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-45481377110522023902016-01-23T15:10:57.686-05:002016-01-23T15:10:57.686-05:00Are you saying she's a robot?Are you saying she's a robot?

No, seriously. She's all sunshine and smiles and baked goods.</i><br /><br />Yes! She's totally evil. And her name is Violet, right? That makes me think she's some obscure Marvel villain, like the Incredible Shrinking Violet, or Ultraviolet Raize. (I've made both those names up.) I suspect she is poisoning Sousa with her baked goods.<br /><br />Anyway: Sousa, you dog! I thought he and Peggy were fated for each other, then he goes and finds a hot blonde nurse. I would be far more upset about it if it weren't for the chemistry between Peggy and Dr. Wilkes. I hope he comes back from the "dead." (That's in ironic quotation marks, because "river" and "dead" don't mean the usual things in a Marvel version of LA.)Josie Kafkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17892717530356699008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-15350244288586726282016-01-23T12:20:55.510-05:002016-01-23T12:20:55.510-05:00I completely agree about the portrayal of women. I...I completely agree about the portrayal of women. I think we've all seen enough love triangles; it's nice that this show seems to have made a deliberate decision to stay away from them. <br /><br />I also thought that Zero Matter was the monolith, but my husband corrected me. It's the thing that created Blackout, who was introduced to us in Agents of SHIELD: http://agentsofshield.wikia.com/wiki/Marcus_Daniels It looks like the monolith because they're both portals. In the case of Zero Matter the portal sucks up all energy to wherever the other side of the portal is. <br /><br />I'm guessing that Dr. Wilkes got sucked up into the portal and Whitney Frost now has Blackout-like powers, but probably more with absorbing heat seeing as her last name is Frost. =)<br /><br />In Sousa's defense, Peggy did send out an SOS signal, so it makes sense to think it might be more danger than one person, even someone as amazing as Peggy, can handle.<br /><br />By the way, we've seen Hugh Jones, one of the Council members before in http://www.douxreviews.com/2015/01/agent-carter-bridge-and-tunnel.html. He seems to have his fingers in many pies.<br /><br />Mariannahttp://www.mariannahorn.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-73166250747879661502016-01-23T07:38:16.036-05:002016-01-23T07:38:16.036-05:00I haven't seen the episode yet, but this revie...I haven't seen the episode yet, but this review is hilarious, Sunbunny.
