Agent 33

"I will never work for HYDRA!"

- Agent 33

Agent 33 is a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent who was brainwashed by Daniel Whitehall into serving HYDRA.

Recruiting Agent 33
"I'm happy to comply."

- Agent 33

Phil Coulson, the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., took a trip in order to ask Agent 33 to return to the organization. He returned to the Playground empty-handed and explained to Melinda May that S.H.I.E.L.D. and HYDRA were competing for the same candidates.

Meanwhile, Agent 33 was captured by HYDRA leader Daniel Whitehall. Whitehall used the Faustus method to brainwash her into serving HYDRA.

Words of Creation
"I won't go down easily." "That makes two of us."

- Agent 33 and Melinda May

Not long after, she assisted Sunil Bakshi in his mission to retrieve a painting which had the Words of Creation on its back and to capture Phil Coulson to help in the translation. While in their hotel room, Melinda May attacked her and Bakshi, but was tased to unconsciousness by Agent 33. She then took some of May's clothes, and used a Photostatic Veil to look like May. While tricking Coulson into going to the hotel room, she also managed to plant a virus on the Bus in an attempt to destroy it.

However, Coulson began to suspect that this wasn't the real May, and in a test, tricked her into saying that she would like to drink coffee with him, despite that May hated coffee. A fight broke out between Coulson and Agent 33, which was soon interrupted by the real May. The real May had a fight with the false May, while Coulson chased after Bakshi. After a prolonged fight, the real May won by electrocuting Agent 33's face with a lamp cable.

Abilities

Agent 33 was an excellent fighter in hand to hand combat. She was able to give Melinda May a prolonged battle.

She also was very strong willed, able to withstand the Faustus method Daniel Whitehall performed for an extended period of time.
