The Atomic Job is the fifth episode of the second season of the television series Agent Carter.
Synopsis
As Jarvis’ precision and quick-thinking skills are put to the ultimate test, Peggy must find a way to stop an atomic explosion that threatens to destroy all of California.
Plot
Peggy Carter is awakened by Jason Wilkes who shows her that Zero Matter is attracted to him; the experiment also reveals that the substance makes Wilkes tangible, so Carter and Edwin Jarvis go to where the body of Jane Scott is held to take the corpse to Wilkes. However, they find Whitney Frost and Calvin Chadwick already there, as Frost absorbs the Zero Matter and tells her husband that she needs an Atomic Bomb to recreate the rift that brought the anomoly. Wilkes tells Carter that Frost must not be allowed to succeed.
Meanwhile, Violet accepts the proposal of Daniel Sousa to marry him and a small party is held in the Auerbach Theatrical Agency for the chief. Carter arrives and congratulates Sousa, but she is more concerned with how to infiltrate the Roxxon Warehouse to disarm any bombs Frost might procure. Lab technician Aloysius Samberly gives Carter a Memory Inhibitor to use, which she does repeatedly on Hugh Jones before getting his access key.
Frost goes to her ex-lover the Maggia leader Joseph Manfredi to get men to help her carry the bombs; Chadwick fears Frost, so he constantly goes along with her plans.
Carter and Sousa realize that they need help to disarm the bombs or they could destroy Los Angeles, so Rose Roberts, Samberly, and Jarvis make up their crew for the heist. Inside the warehouse, Jarvis gets locked inside the room with the bomb, while Roberts and Carter fight mobsters; Sousa instructs Jarvis on how to isolate the uranium cores, while Samberly uses his scientific prowess to open the doors.
Carter confronts Frost who tires of the woman's interference; Frost ultimately grabs Carter's arm, disabling her. Carter, keeping Frost at a distance, purposefully falls, but she gets stabbed on rebarb as Frost and Chadwick escape. While Samberly and Roberts neutralise the uranium, Sousa and Jarvis take Carter to Violet's house for medical attention, since no one can be trusted since the reach of the Council of Nine is so encompassing. Violet helps Carter, but realizes that Sousa is in love with her.
Chadwick decides to stand up for himself against Frost, but she threatens him to watch his tone around her. He calls an emergency meeting of the Council after Frost falls asleep.
Wilkes suddenly fades away as he and Carter talk.
