Recap: Episode 8:

Radio show again. Captain America's plane was going down over the Sea of Japan. His love Betty Carter hears only static.

Agents talk to police at the movie theater. Peggy and Thompson look at the bodies. Sousa looks around the theater. Finds the baby carriage. And the canister on the floor. It sprays some mist at him and he starts choking on it, then attacks Thompson. Peggy pulls him off. Police knock him out.

Dottie and Ivchenko in the car. He says this is an amazing city. A beacon for all the world to envy. She says won't it be fun to tear it all down. Policeman pulls them over. He tells her she missed a traffic light. Tells her to be careful and get home safe. He goes back to the car and hears a radio call for.....the car they're in.

Sousa's tied to a bed. He wakes up coughing. Asks Peggy what's going on? She asks if he remembers anything. Some kind of gas. She says you attacked Agent Thompson. He says I wanted to kill everybody. Apologizing for hitting her. He feels back to normal.

Sousa and Peggy join the other agents. She says Ivchenko has a plan. Targeting something specific. Stark and Jarvis walk in!

Howard offers to help Sousa with his leg. Thompson yells at Stark. Howard says the gas is called Midnight Oil. The Army wanted something that would keep soldiers awake for days at a time. it failed. The Army took it and dropped it on Finhau. Ivchenko is Fenhoff. Howard wants to be bait. Thompson says something public Real showy.

Dottie goes to an airfield. Ivchenko hears a radio report about Stark holding a press conference. He tells Dottie our plans have changed. Going back to the city.

Howard's primping. Peggy brings him body armor. He says it's junk. He asks for his stuff. She takes him to the lab. He says all this stuff is stored wrong. She says the press conference is ridiculous. He says I care what you think of me. She says I don't want you to die. He says I need to fix this or I won't be able to live with myself. She calls him mad. He says As a hatter. He swipes something when her back is turned - Steve's blood?

The conference. Thompson says Stark is innocent and all charges have been dropped. Howard wants him to say he's a hero. LOL. Peggy looking around. Howard speaks. Shot fires! Jarvis and Stark run to a car. Howard gets kidnapped by a hypnotized officer.

Peggy finds the rifle rigged to fire itself. She says this gun was never supposed to kill Howard. It was a diversion. Radio says Stark has been grabbed.

Howard tries appealing to the officer. Bribing him.

Peggy and Thompson discuss. Peggy notices all the military boys walking by in uniform. She asks what day is it. May 8th. V-E Day. They're going to hit Times Square!

Car found. No Stark and the officer is slumped on the wheel.

Dottie has Howard. He tries charming her. She says you don't remember me, do you? You and I spent a nice weekend together. He asks is it Alice? She punches him.

Sousa updates Jarvis and Peggy. Thompson says there are 100,000 people in Times Square and the muckity-mucks won't call it off. Jarvis says I know where they're going. A vault of planes.

Dottie and Howard in a hanger. In eveningwear. Dottie slaps him awake. He still doesn't remember the name she used. Fenhoff and Stark meet. Do you know what your creation does? Howard says I saw it afterward. Fenhoff says I saw it happen. His brother died in it. He had no eyes and pieces of his flesh had been bitten off. Howard says he's so sorry. You have no idea how sorry. You can kill me, but leave innocent people out of it. Fenhoff says he has no intention of killing him. I'm going to make you suffer. Howard pleads with him. you feel remorse? Of course I do. I'm not a bad person. Fenhoff says yes, yes you are. It's the only way to achieve such remarkable success. your guilt eats you. Destroys you from the inside out. He's hypnotizing Howard. Focus. go back in your mind to a time and place that holds your greatest shame. What would you change?

Howard looking for Captain America. Peggy holds the shield and says bring him home.

Howard in a plane. Peggy and Jarvis are too late to stop him before take-off.

Jarvis can fly. He goes up to follow Howard and shoot if necessary. He's never had to shoot at someone before. Thompson tells him hopefully Peggy will get through and you won't have to.

Peggy and Dottie fight. Dottie envied her. Tells Fenhoff to leave. Dottie hits Peggy with a bat. I thought you'd be better. Peggy kicks her out the window. Dottie lands on a plane wing.

Peggy tells Sousa and Thompson that Fenhoff is out of the radio room. She talks to Howard on the radio. Tries getting through to him.

Sousa vs. Fenhoff. Fenhoff knocked Thompson out. He tries hypnotizing Sousa.

Peggy pleads with Howard to come back.

Sousa, shoot already!! Thompson comes to. Fenhoff tells Sousa to shoot Thompson. Jack says don't listen to him. Snap out of it! Sousa knocks the doc out. He had ear plugs in! Awesome.

Howard won't turn the plane around. Jarvis says I have the plane in my sights. We are 1 mile from land. Should I take the shot? Miss Carter? Miss Carter!

Jarvis pleads with Peggy to answer. She tells him don't take the shot until I tell you! Then she tells Howard Steve died over a year ago. He says he can see him. He was the one thing I did that brought good into this world. She says Howard, I know you loved him. I loved him, too. I can't lose you. Steve is gone. We have to move on, all of us. We have to let him go. Peg? He was good before I got a hold of him, huh? Yes, he was, where are you? Howard sees he's flying to Manhattan. She tells Jarvis. Jarvis says have Mr. Stark follow me back. I'll bring him home.

Peggy finds that Dottie is gone. But Fenhoff is in custody. Howard and Jarvis on the ground. Howard orders him to never shoot at me. Then hugs him. Awww. Tells Peggy I owe you another one. She says Dottie escaped. Howard says Ida, i knew I'd remember her name. Steel trap. ha!

Peggy walks into SSR and gets a standing ovation. Thompson says good morning. She says she came to get her paycheck. Men come in asking for Thompson. Cooper, a senator. Thanks him. We need more men like Jack Thompson. you're all lucky you work for him. You could get a congressional honor out of this situation. The president wants to thank you himself. Sousa says how can you stand that? He wants to tell the senator himself. Peggy says I know my value. I don't need anyone's approval. Sousa asks her for a drink after work. She says another time. I've got to meet a friend. Sure, another time. She smiles.

Angie and Peggy at one of Stark's houses. 6 bedrooms, 8 bathrooms. Jarvis says you and Peggy can stay as long as you want. There's a telephone in every room. Angie is so thrilled here. Jarvis says it's nice someone appreciates the finer things. Peggy says she's sure he looks forward to his regular duties. He says if she needs him, his services are at him disposal. Howard has decided to destroy everything. Jarvis gives her Steve's blood. Stark doesn't know. Jarvis says he doesn't own my integrity. Only one person in the world knows what to do with this. you, Miss Carter.

She looks out on the view from a bridge. Opens the vial and pours it in the water. Awww. She has tears. Bye, my darling. "Just the way you look tonight...."

Fenhoff is locked in a cell. He can't talk anymore. A man says the food here is quite good. it's the Hydra doctor! Brings him paper and pencil. Says you're fortunate. This is an American prison and America is the land of opportunity. Oh no!
