Jason Wilkes returns to the real world but worries that at any moment he could be drawn away completely. He designs a containment chamber for himself, but requires more Zero Matter. Peggy Carter realizes that Whitney Frost is now the only source of Zero Matter, but is still too injured to get it herself. Instead, she breaks Dottie Underwood out of custody and sends her with Edwin Jarvis to one of Calvin Chadwick's campaign events. The event is also cover for a Council of Nine meeting, Chadwick having convinced them to see Frost (they usually never speak with outsiders, let alone women). Vernon Masters and Jack Thompson are also at the event; Jarvis distracts Thompson while Underwood collects a Zero Matter sample from Frost using a device designed by Wilkes. Daniel Sousa tells Carter that his fiancée left him due to his supposed feelings for her. Underwood eavesdrops on the Council meeting, watching as Chadwick betrays Frost and has her restrained. Showing greatly enhanced powers, Frost kills Chadwick and several of the Council members, proclaiming herself in control of the remainder. Masters and Thompson capture Underwood, but the Zero Matter sample is left behind. Masters insists that Thompson "destroy" Carter; he tries to convince her to return to New York City, but fails. Underwood ends up in Frost's control.
