Oh man. I'd grown to like Dooley. That hallucination of him reconciling with his wife was a gut punch.
Jossverse 1: Emotional Resonance & Rocket Launchers
TV, movies, web media--this thread is the home for any Joss projects that don't already have their own threads, such as Dr. Horrible.
Speculation: the gas was Stark's attempt at replicating the Super Soldier Forumla. It did grant super-strength (since the reports from Finow speak of people being ripped apart) but also imparted uncontrollable rage.
Also, awhile back someone mentioned Peggy eventually married one of the Howling Commandos. I thought the Peggy recording in CA:WS said that her eventual husband was someone she rescued alongside Cap and the Commandos.
She said Steve saved the man who became her husband. Which led to a lot of people speculating that it might have been one of the Howling Commandos. But Barb (who I don't think posts here) has a theory that maybe Thompson or Sousa gets gravely injured and the vial of Steve's blood saves him, and that's who she marries. The movie left it really vague and open-ended.
Okay. I couldn't remember the specifics, but I would think if she had married a Commando a news/documentary recording would have mentioned it straight-out, considering they were famous.
I've always been intrigued by the CA:WS recording not putting a married name on Peggy. Given the apparent age of the recording, that would have been on there.
I didn't realize until I was just thinking it over that the scene in Dooley's house was his hallucination. That's kind of cruel, to wake him from that. But yay him with the "Good girl."

I think Marvel wanted to leave it open-ended on purpose.
What is the deal with the hypno-guy's ring? Is it special, or a red herring?
I think it's just a tool for him to use: what's special is his hypnotic ability.
So sad to see Dooley go, I had grown to like him a lot in the last few episodes. But I'm glad he didn't die like poor Yauch.
There was a LOT packed into that episode. Every time I fast-forwarded through another set of commercials, I was surprised at how much there was left. This is some good storytelling.

YES. It's become so much better lately.
As I said before, and as everyone says now, yeah: I had grown to really like Dooley, so dammit. That was sad.
I hadn't put together the rage gas with the Battle of Finaw, but that makes sense! Eesh.
There was a LOT packed into that episode.
And Peggy never left the office.
