Rosemary woke up startled, almost jumping from her bed. The whole room was trembling and the book she had on her night table fell. Trying to find support, she clenched the bedsheets.

You are not in Hydra, you are safe.

She tried calming her erratic breathing, counting each breath she took.

They can't catch you, you are safe.

She clenched the sheets tighter, imagining she was holding someone else, imagining she was not alone.

No one's looking for you, you are safe.

As her beating heart picked up its normal pace, the shaking of the room came to a stop.

Your mom is—

Don't.

She wiped the tears that had fallen in her sleep and relaxed her body. She ran a hand through her hair looking around the room. A few things had fallen, but she didn't see anything broken. She would have to check the rest of the apartment to see if it had survived.

She remembered the new turntable she had bought hoping it was intact. The previous one broke after it fell during one of her nightmares. She had been listening to her records at Howard's place for a while. It would be too suspicious if she did that again.

She checked the time, 4.31. She had barely slept an hour.

Her nightmares were getting out of control and so were her powers.

She got out of bed picking up a book from the floor heading outside. It seemed it would be another night without sleep.

In the past four days, Peggy had freed Dottie Underwood to use her to infiltrate a party at the Arena Club where Whitney Frost would be to extract a sample of her blood since she was unable to fight due to her injury. Dr Wilkes wanted to study it, apparently, zero matter had been altering Frost's body which is why she could hurt Peggy and Rose, moreover examining her blood might help him to obtain body mass. In the meantime, the doctor had guided Ana, Jarvis and Rosemary in building a device that would allow him to become tangible, a machine that could contain zero matter.

They ended up with the blood. However, Frost had captured Underwood and set a trap for Peggy to come and rescue her, which she did for she felt responsible for her capture. She went with Jarvis, leaving Ana alone at Stark's place with Dr Wilkes, while Whitney Frost came in with her new boyfriend/bodyguard, to retrieve the scientist. 

It might have ended with Ana in the hospital, if Rosemary hadn't had a bad feeling and went to visit the mansion, managing to save Mrs Jarvis from a bullet. When Mr Jarvis detached himself from his wife, convincing himself that she was indeed safe and alive, he thanked Rosemary nonstop, not being able to show how much he was thankful for her help. He was in debt.
