'Agent Carter' Spoilers & Recap: Edwin Jarvis Gets Vindictive Over Wife Ana

Agent Carter is nearing the end of its second season, and the second Marvel Cinematic Universe ABC show hasn't stopped bringing in the glamour with Hayley Atwell, and villains, on funny and dramatic times. In this week's S02E08 episode, a disturbed Edwin Jarvis flips out against Whitney Frost after the villain shot his wife, Ana.

As it happened last week, Agent Carter showed off the latest from its story on a two-episode event last Tuesday, and things are getting increasingly dangerous with Zero Matter, a concept that will later be known as Darkforce in other Marvel media.

After last week's "Monsters" saw Ana Jarvis (Lotte Verbeek) take a shot from Whitney Frost (Wynn Everett), who then hijacked Jason Wilkes (Reggie Austin), the following two episodes were greatly focused on both Ana's recovery and Dr. Wilkes embracing his powers with Zero Matter.

In the first of two episodes from this week, "The Edge of Mystery," shows us how Edwin Jarvis' (James D'Arcy) adventures with Peggy first began from his home, when Ana first heard him talking to the SSR agent. Through this, we learn that Ana survived surgery, but we don't know if she'll wake up -- fortunately, eventually she does, but there was internal damage and she's now unable to have children.

This, in turn, causes the ever-passive Jarvis to flip out and thirst for revenge, but we'll get to that.

Of course, Peggy and Sousa (Enver Gjokaj) develop a plan to rescue Dr. Wilkes from Whitney Frost's crazed hands, which includes trading him for fake versions of the uranium rods, but things go sour.

Regarding Dr. Wilkes, while he was unconscious, Whitney handcuffs him and experiments with him, calculating the exact time it takes him to lose his corporeal form when he's not contained. The Hollywood star, marveled by how powerful Zero Matter has made her, convinces her fellow scientist to embrace his powers, which causes him to turn against Peggy and threaten to kill her.

He then escapes with Whitney, after chivalrous Sousa decides to tell him where the rods are located to save Peggy from imminent death, something she's certainly not happy about.

In any case, once the "good guys" are back in the mansion, Howard Stark sends them the tech specifications to create a new contraption that will throw gamma rays and make Zero Matter disappear. Of course, the knowledge of how dangerous gamma rays truly are won't be discovered in the MCU for about 70 more years after that infamous Bruce Banner accident.

Chief Thompson (Chad Michael Murray) pops back in this week's story arch to play a complicated game of alliances, seemingly playing for each side on every scene. After Vernon Masters (Kurtwood Smith) takes the rods and gives him the slip, Thompson stays on Peggy and Sousa's team, and they all follow Whitney to the desert, where she tries to imbue herself and Jason in even more Dark Matter.

They get there too late, and Zero Matter has swallowed up Dr. Wilkes while Whitney watches in wonderment. The crew manages to shoot the gamma cannon into the matter and a seemingly lifeless Jason drops to the ground.

Jarvis, mad with anger over his wife's close call, goes up to Whitney and shoots her (before that, he even asked someone to give Ana his will). Of course, being the supervillain she is, Whitney regenerates soon after being shot due to her powers.

When Whitney's mobster boyfriend (Ken Marino) is about to kill them, she stops him: they're more useful alive, as bargaining chips for Dr. Wilkes.
