  • Title: Secret Invasion – Betrayed
  • IMDb: link

The third episode of Secret Invasion is only a marginal improvement over the first two episodes of the series It may reveal Gravik‘s (Kingsley Ben-Adir) big plan of creating Super-Skrulls but it doesn’t do much else. It teases us about the relationship between Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) and Varra (Charlayne Woodard) without exploring it. It kills off G’iah (Emilia Clarke) before she can become interesting, and gives Fury and and Talos (Ben Mendelsohn) the opportunity to bicker like old lovers while stopping the Skrulls force an attack on an infiltrated nuclear submarine.

Once found, and discovering the trail leads to an analog information station it doesn’t take long for Dembe (Hisham Tawfiq) to put the pieces together and realize the entire operation was part of Reddington‘s (James Spader) empire and just like the Morgana Logistics Corporation he’s used the FBI to dismantle another key piece of his criminal empire.
