Hey youtubers, it's Charlie, this is gonna be my Agent Carter episode 6 video
all about pushing deeper into the Leviathan plot, a little bit more about who they are.
Just a quick reminder too: there's only two episodes left, there's only eight episodes
in the season, so if they get picked up a for season 2
which they totally could, it sounds like they will, that will also probably be just
eight episodes. So, just careful for spoilers from the episode if you haven't seen it yet, starting twith top five moments.
Number 5: Leviathan flashback. This is really more exciting as a Dottie flashback
just because she looks so awesome being evil. We get to see the psychiatrist who
I actually that was the engineer,
I thought he told them that he was an engineer so he may have just been lying to the
Howling Commandos to infiltrate the SSR.
Plans within plans within plans. Based on this scene
it seems like Leviathan is a little bit different from what they are the comics.
The TV show's just using them as a straight-up HYDRA type organization,
so they're working within the Russian government. Leviathan, in the comics,
is really part of the Secret Warriors storyline, during like Dark Reign Secret Invasion.
If you want to read more, just read Secret Warriors, which is interesting because
Agents of SHIELD right now is borrowing a lot about aspects from the Secret Warriors storyline.
Moving on to number 4: Angie, world's most amazing actress.
So they said it up early in the episode she wants to follow her dreams but she's
getting really discourage, Peggy's like 'don't give up'.
Cut to later in the episode where she's like 'you're the world's best actor'. I mean she's just
able to distract Thompson by crying. It's a bit of a trope
that grown men can't handle women crying, but it was kinda funny the way they used it.
It's always funny watching actors pretend to act, they go like way over the top
and then Peggy was like 'you are amazing, you shouldn't do anything else'.
I mean of course she's a terrible actress. What I'm really hoping develops,
at the end of the season,
is that Peggy inducts Angie into whatever becomes SHIELD.
In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, SHIELD was created as a separate organization
and they just kinda roll the SSR into that. So we will see at some point in. I really
like Lyndsy Fonseca on the show so
hopefully they'll keep her character around, she'll become part of that too.
Part of being a spy is being really great actress,
so Peggy just needs to teach her martial arts. Moving on to number 3:
Peggy takes down an entire department. That fight scene was on par with anything
that Arrow's done.
Arrow probably has the best stunts of any of the comic book TV shows just across the board,
but I feel like this fight scene in the Automat was on par with anything they've done in
this season so far.
Yeah, there's not as much blood, it's not quite as crazy, but if you like the scene as a
whole, it was just well constructed as any of Arrow fight scenes.
Don't you just feel like the scenes though turn Peggy into a superhero?
Like Captain America style. She kinda has some of the same moves that he has.
Obviously he's like 10 times stronger, but you get the idea. There's been this huge
shift in the way
fight scenes are filmed, especially on television since the Bourne trilogy.
It's all about the use of improvised weapons. And my number 1 moment: Peggy gets captured
and now the SSR has Captain America's blood. To be fair
they had his blood before, they just didn't know it was his blood. I'd be
willing to bet that
is what the psychiatrist is trying to get, the Stark Tech he's trying to get.
Last week's episode, when they found out about the weapon of mass destruction,
that kinda seem like the endgame but I think that they're also after the Captain
America blood so they can make their own army a super soldiers.
They ended things in a way that made it seem like Peggy's in deep shit,
but I do think that Agent Sousa and Agent Thompson will help her.
There's only two episodes left, so it's not like they're gonna wait till like
the last 10 minutes of the final episode for them to finally believe her and go after the villain.
But they still don't know that the psychiatrist is a double agent, and neither does Peggy.
If those who are wondering, that ring of his that he uses to hypnotize people,
I don't think that that special. I that's just something he uses the catch people's
eyes, something he uses to distract people.
They have that weird music queue that made it sound like it was giving off some
weird hum, but I I don't think that's the case, I think it's just a normal ring.
Let me know though: what was your favorite moment? And here's my big question for you guys:
How do you think that the SSR is going to help Peggy?
I mean, like at a certain point, either Agent Sousa or one of the other
agents is gonna have to say 'okay we believe you, let's go get Leaviathan'.
Dooely seem like he was starting to come around on Stark, like he's like 'okay
I'm starting to believe that he doesn't have anything to do with this'. He let
Peggy go chase down some leads before he knew that she was involved with all of it,
which I think means that, as much as he's a dick, as well as the other agents in the office,
they'll eventually come around. She'll just have to punch them a couple times in the face
to bring them to the senses.
So there weren't a whole bunch Easter Eggs in the episode, there were a couple
really awesome ones that I saw though.
So first, whenever they're talking about the Stark's special, like that the paryting
bracelet that Stark gives the women,
they mae the joke about Ginger Rogers being a secret Russian assassin.
Ginger Rogers actually played a double agent in a movie with Cary Grant called
'Once Upon a Honeymoon'.
Then when Jarvis said 'you should have seen her eyes, the darkest gates to the abyss'
they cut to a shot of the Empire State Building, so during the Avengers movie when
the Tesseract opened up a portal, it was right above the Empire State
Building like, that's where Thor was when he was
firing his lightening up into the wormhole. I didn't really catch any other big Easter Eggs
but if you saw any, just write them below in the comments.
I already talked about my favorite fight scene but that slap montage that Jarvis went through,
that was so funny. Can you just picture like a modern version of Tony Stark
breaking up with a bunch of different women and sending the Vision to go do it for him?
I didn't have any significant thumbs down about the episode, I mean it was pretty tight,
it seem like they were trying to lead us into a very obvious assassination
attempt from Dottie,
but then they totally me pull the rug out from under us. So what's gonna happen
next is I'm gonna be posting
a Q&A for Arrow and the Flash this week and then I'll post a separate Q&A
for the Spider-Man Marvel announcement. We just have so much to talk about.
It sounds like Dylan O'Brien is probably gonna be casted as Spider-Man,
he seems like the front-runner right now Logan Lerman seems like the number two pick but
Dylan O'Brien is the one that's blowing it up at the box office,
so he just seems like the likely candidate. You guys going let me know how
you feel about that.
I'Il be happy with either choice, I feel like it'll be fine. Really if you gonna worry about something
worry about the next solo Spider-Man film script. So while you guys wait for all that stuff
to drop you can click here to catch up on Agent Carter
and you can click here for the Spider-Man Marvel announcement.
Thank you so much watching, so let's all high five, I'll see you guys tomorrow.
