Press want to talk to Peggy. Sousa tells them to clear out. Dr. Wilkes' house. Peggy feels guilty. Sousa hasn't heard from Thompson. Peggy finds a hollow floor spot. Cash, plane ticket to Moscow, a Russian passport. An agent found a gun under the bed, too. Peggy thinks Isodyne is framing Dr. Wilkes.

A Western set. Director calls cut. Peggy and Jarvis are in the shot. Stark's production. Peggy shows him the film. Stark says this could be the greatest find of the century. He recognizes the Arena Club pin. Since the 1906. They've been trying to recruit Stark. But women aren't allowed. They have to remind him who Dottie Underwood is, LOL.

Whitney still has the black crack on her forehead. It was her idea to make Wilkes a spy. Hubby asks her why she isn't at work. She says she wasn't feeling well. She asks him about retiring from acting. He says after the campaign, right? Of course. He says we win the election and you can retire and have all the babies you want.

Thompson is in the office. Surprise. He changed Peggy's incident report. She asks about Dottie. Jack says it doesn't concerns her. She won't sign the report. Jack does it for her. Sousa's not happy with Jack's attitude. Peggy storms out, and things are floating on her desk!!

Peggy visits Howard again. Lots of women in and around the pool. Howard comes down. Peggy wants to plant listening devices in the club. She takes his drink. LOL.

Jack watches the Isodyne reel. Uh oh. Someone knocks. Vernon. Been briefed on Isodyne? Jack says the report will be very not controversial. Vernon wants sensitive material recovered from Wilkes. The material could be disastrous in the wrong hands. Don't be a Boy Scout, Jack. Thompson says he'll let him know if he finds anything.

The club. Howard and Jarvis getting the tour. Howard wants his martini now. Finds the place overly dull. He brings young ladies in. This way to the bar, ladies. Peggy sneaks in during the distraction. She starts planting bugs.

Jarvis gets behind the bar.

Peggy sneaks in the library. The bookcase moves. Council leaves. She goes in the hidden board room. Looks at newspapers with future dates. Someone's coming. She hides under the table. Plants a bug. Hears it buzz and takes it off and smashes it. Someone enters. Uh oh.

Man has a gun. Turns around and goes to the phone. Calls security. Peggy crawls behind a chair. Makes the broken bug smoke. Then sneaks out before the door closes. Gets caught in the hallway. Jarvis comes and says the powder room is that way.

They get out. Howard takes his girls home.

Thompson is not happy with Peggy. She says the Arena Club is fabricating the future. Tomorrow's date on the newspaper. Calvin Chadwick wins a seat on the Senate. Thompson says it's a serious accusation. But the bugs were destroyed and she couldn't bring out the newspapers. She calls Jack a coward. He says she's done here. Get on the next plane to New York. Sousa follows her and says he's not wrong. I believe in you, but Wilkes went in of his free will. He sees the floating office supplies. She says don't touch me. I could be contaminated.

Shows Howard. Metal floats around her. Temp around her is 7 degrees cooler than the rest of the room. Howard says you're not freezing or contaminated with zero matter. The gravitational field around her is disrupted. They go in Howard's lab. He and Jarvis have been working on a formula to make other wavelengths visible and photographical. It's Wilkes!!! Peggy's hand passes through him.

Wilkes is trying to talk. Howard says say AH. He sprays Wilkes throat, lol. Now he's audible. He's been shadowing Peggy hoping she'd notice him. He tells them what happened. Whitney Frost showed up. Had a gun. Wanted zero matter. I took the brunt of the explosion. He fades away again. Howard says we'll figure this out.

Gives a shopping list to Jarvis. You and Peggy make a great team. Just let me know if I need a new butler. I'm great, but so is she. Howard will help Peggy all he can. Jarvis and Howard leave. Peggy wants to check into Whitney. Sousa will do some digging.

Peggy visits Whitney at her dressing room. Asks about Isodyne. Whitney plays dumb. Peggy asks about the work. Whitney says she doesn't know a thing. Peggy says a security guard saw you there. Whitney says they're mistaken. Peggy trusts her instincts. Things aren't what they seem. Whitney is summoned to work.

Jack and Vernon. He gives Vernon the film reel. Jack says I trust you. Vernon says if it was up to me, you'd get a medal for this. Doing a great service for the United States. Jack says that's all I wanted to do. They shake hands. Is Jack finally starting to figure out he's working with the wrong man here?

Wilkes is back. Howard wants coffee. Wilkes doesn't know if he can fix this. She says you're in the best hands imaginable. You've impressed Howard Stark and you've impressed me. Howard couldn't find coffee. LOL.

Sousa in the files. Jack looks at it. Hands it back. Carter's still a pistol. Asks Sousa about a broken heart. Sousa says he's getting engaged. Really? Yeah. Jack offers to buy him a drink. Sousa says next time. Jack leaves.

Whitney rants about Peggy. Wants Cal to do something about her. Official channels won't cut it. Let Mr. Hunt take care of her. Cal says he can't. She sobs and says she scares me. She threatened me. She knows about Wilkes. She's using me to get to you. I would hate if this caught the Council's attention. Cal says he'll take care of it. Call Mr. Hunt right now. Once he's gone, she stops crying.

Peggy working out on the hit bag. Jarvis is ready to turn in. Anything I might do to help? She says no. He offers to get her a sparring partner. She's fine. Goodnight. Mr. Hunt grabs her from behind, trying to choke her. She takes him into the pool. And comes up. He attacks her on the deck. Jarvis hits him. Peggy shoots at him. He gets away. Jarvis checks on her.

Morning. Jarvis improving security. Peggy asks Howard if he's slept. Nope. He's off to Peru. Abner Brody. Howard's still had way too much caffeine. Wilkes says Howard is a menace, but more than alright. Peggy apologizes for asking him to go in the lab. He says better me than you. I can't stay here. She says you'll be as good as dead. You need us! And we need you. You're our best asset against Whitney Frost. You're not going anywhere. He capitulates. Her not wanting him to leave is reason enough to stay.

Sousa asks if she's okay. Yeah. She put a bullet in the assailant's hand. Whitney Frost is the brain behind Isodyne. It's her stage name.

Jack and Vernon. In the club! Meet Calvin Chadwick. Jack sees the paper about the senator that resigned. They share drinks.

Man visits Whitney. Studio wants to replace her. Looking for a fresh face. He told them no one treats his star that way and they folded. She thanks him. Hugs him. He doesn't want to let go. You're so beautiful. He sees the crack. She gets upset and absorbs him into the zero matter! Inside her. The crack lengthens.

Next week - Carter kidnaps Mr. Hunt.

Body is still frozen through. Can't do an autopsy, yet. Stab wounds are consistent. Peggy asks do we know what caused the lake to freeze? No. And the body glows in the dark! Peggy says fetch a chisel.

It's not ice. Don't know what it is. Lab tech gets snippy. Why don't you invite me when you agents grab drinks? LOL. The glow means the woman was near a particle accelerator. There's one at Isodyne Energy.

Chadwick in a club. The gentlemen are in the meeting room. Secret room. Chadwick enters. Lots of recognizable faces. Isodyne will be shut down and liquidated. Your experiments have yielded no results. You've put our interests in jeopardy. Chadwick says this substance is potentially priceless. Could make us billions. He's told the decision's been made. Tonight, our men will clear out the lab. Don't take this personally, Calvin. Focus on the senate race. Yeah. You're right. 

Bodies pulled out of the LA river. No sign of Jane's body. Peggy says this case is much larger than we thought. They have a warrant for Isodyne. Radiation danger sign. Peggy spots Wilkes. Lab is under isolation. Peggy says I'm going to find out what Isodyne is up to. They leave the facility. Wilkes gave her an address and meet time.

Jarvis shows Peggy to the car that Stark had tricked out. Even has a tracking device. It's a sex car, lol. 

Peggy walks in the place. Wilkes wanted to meet in public where they wouldn't get a lot of looks. He offers drinks. She says nothing for me. Not here for small talk. He says this morning I was escorted into a conference room with lawyers. Treason, prison, hanging.....lots of fun. Before I risk my career and my life, I'd like to know more about the woman I'm trusting. She orders a whiskey, neat. 

Whitney Frost on set. A kiss in the rain. Scene cut. Take 5. Director tells make-up to get rid of the lines on her face. And that her waist isn't small enough. 

Peggy tells a story. Wilkes is entertained. Singer starts. Wilkes says this is my song. Don't worry, I can dance and spill my guts at the same time. Peggy complies. She asks if Chadwick killed Jane Scott? No. But he would kill to cover up the research. It's bigger than you think it is. Best way to explain is to show you. Come on. Hitman is at the bar! Follows them out. 

Frost storms into her dressing room. Chadwick tells her they're scrapping it. Everything. She's not amused. Zero matter can make atomic as obsolete as the steam engine. You let them walk all over you like you always do! He says they're scrubbing the lab tonight. The Council wants me to focus on the senate campaign. Isn't that better for both of us? She nods. You're going to make a wonderful senator. I love you. I love you. That's my girl. But she doesn't look happy still. 

Peggy stops the car at Griffith Observatory. Wilkes loves it up here. Helps him keep perspective. He grew up working in the orange groves with his family. She asks how he made it to the laboratory. He worked a second job here. Then the War gave me opportunity. Applied to 16 companies and Isodyne was the only one to employ me. She's enjoyed herself this evening, but if this is only for a view, I'll be very cross. He plays the film reel. Rocket test. Didn't go as planned. There's an anomaly. It sucks everything in. Only one thing left behind. They call it Zero Matter. Unlike any substance we've ever seen. More dangerous than anything we've ever known. 

Hit guys pop the tires. Charge in. 

Wilkes tells her zero matter is the coldest object in the room. Jane must've made physical contact. I maintain the chamber to contain it. He says it could be not of this Earth. She says you and I are going to Isodyne tonight to steal it. They hear the men. Shots fired. Wilkes leads her out of the building. She turns on the tracker. 

Jarvis trying to catch the flamingo. Anna sees the signal. Come in now. There's a sock on the doorknob. 

Peggy tells Wilkes to follow. Cover me while I get this started. She works on another car. Gets it started. Get in! Wilkes climbs in the passenger side, dodging bullets. The men get in a 3rd car and follow her. 

Car radiator pops. Wilkes directs her to an alley. Kill the lights. Car goes past while they hide. She finds a pin. What do we do? She says we walk until we find a phone. 

Violet and Rose chatting. Daniel is ready to go. Clown sitting in the lobby. Phone rings. Rose says call for you. Jarvis. SOS from Miss Carter. At Griffith Observatory. 

They find a phone booth. No change. Enter a shop. The man says you'll have to buy something. Peggy insults him. Wilkes says the eclair ain't half bad. LOL. Gonna punch all of LA? Maybe, I could do with a hobby. Car coming. Peggy pulls him in the phone booth. Don't move. Is it them? What? No. We're safe, then. He kisses her. She kisses him back. I have an idea. We're going to steal that car. LOL. 

Sousa and Jarvis return to the SSR. Sousa goes in his office and beats on a cabinet. Then gives out orders. Get every badge in the city looking for Wilkes. Jarvis, we're going to Isodyne. I'm through playing nice. 

Peggy and Wilkes get to Isodyne. She'll take care of the men. You get the zero matter. 

Wilkes has a containment tube. He sends it to the containment chamber and sucks in the matter. Tube returns. Whitney Frost finds him. Uh-oh! 

Peggy attacks the men outside. 

Wilkes tells Frost it's not safe to be here. She says I'm surprised to see you alive. Place the specimen in that case and give it to me. She pulls a gun. Hand it over. 

Peggy knocks out all the men. 

Wilkes won't give her the matter. You're smart enough not to shoot me while I'm holding this. She attacks him. The tube drops and breaks. The matter is loose. 

Peggy hurries in. Dr. Wilkes? Jason? She finds a hole in the concrete wall. 

Sousa and Jarvis and the police etc. here. Daniel's relieved Peggy is alive. She rambles out what happened. He says stop, are you okay? Yes. Dr. Wilkes? No. Peggy, go home. Jarvis is relieved she's unharmed. She asks for a ride home. 

Sousa the day after. Violet on the porch. Everything okay? He says I'm fine, Peggy's fine. I'm tired. So sorry about last night. She says it's alright. I just like knowing you're safe. He says he'll make it up to her. She brought a bear claw for him. He asks her to call when she's off work. Deal. She kisses him. I love you, Daniel. Love you, too. She gets in her car. He hobbles to the door. 

Anna gives Peggy whiskey. Peggy says it's strange it should hit me so hard. Anna doesn't think so. Doesn't take long to realize you met someone special. Peggy wishes she had the chance to know him better. 

Whitney's closet. Chadwick knocking for her. She's shivering on the floor. A cut on her forehead is black. 

This season - Peggy vs. Whitney this season. Sousa's in it with her to the end.
