Secret Invasion season 1, episode 4 recap
In season 1 episode 4, something surprising happens—G’iah is still alive! It turns out her resurrection has something to do with a secret machine being built by Dr. Rosa and her husband at the nuclear plants.
We’ll learn more about this later. But first, let’s go back to 2012, right after the Avengers’ heroic mission in New York.
Nick Fury was a powerful and confident leader back then. In Paris, he goes on a romantic date with Priscilla.
They have a significant moment when she recites a poem called, “Last Fragment.” However, it’s strange because Priscilla is planning to betray Fury.
Priscilla meets Rhodey in a church, and it seems like he’s involved in some bad plans with Gravik. We’re left wondering if Rhodey is also a Skrull like Priscilla.
He is determined to kill Fury that day, regardless of Priscilla’s pleas. She believes Fury is weak and no longer a threat, but Rhodey won’t change his mind.
Fury has been listening to their conversation through a wire. He can’t believe Priscilla would betray her “beloved.”
He’s hurt and confused about her motives. G’iah meets with Talos to discuss their plans.
She has chosen her side, but she questions Talos’ plan to find a home for the Skrulls. Talos explains that they will demand refuge for the Skrulls from the U.S. President after defeating their enemies.
Talos believes the Skrulls should live as humans to stay safe. G’iah disagrees and walks away, unsure of what lies ahead.
Fury confronts Priscilla about her plan to kill him. He tells her she’s the biggest mistake of his life, but he still loves her.
Priscilla reveals that she took the appearance of a dead human named Dr. Priscilla Davis to get close to Fury. She explains that the real Priscilla made a deal not to hurt Fury.
They recite the poem “Last Fragment” together and shoot at each other but purposefully miss. It shows their love is stronger than their desire to harm each other.
Fury leaves Priscilla in a bittersweet moment. It turns out Rhodey is indeed a Skrull!
Fury confronts him in his hotel room and knows his secret. Rhodey shows a video where Gravik, disguised as Fury, kills Maria.
He uses it to threaten Fury, saying he’ll make it difficult for him to defend himself. Fury realizes he’s in a vulnerable position and leaves the room.
Meanwhile, Gravik and the other Skrulls continue their plan to turn the world’s superpowers against them. This time, they have an even bolder plan; Gravik wants to take control of the situation completely.
The President arrives in London for a meeting with the British Prime Minister, but it’s a setup. Gravik and his team are waiting to attack them.
They use rocket launchers to target the vehicles. The attack is severe, but the President survives.
Gravik and his team pretend to be Russians to make it seem like they’re responsible. Fury and Talos are nearby and help fight back.
Amidst the chaos, Fury’s presence confuses everyone. They focus on rescuing the President.
Talos uses his strength to break a window, gets shot but keeps going. Half of his body transforms into his Skrull form, but he doesn’t give up.
They save the President, and Fury takes him to safety while a soldier helps Talos. But it turns out the soldier is Gravik himself.
He stabs Talos, and he falls to the ground lifeless. Fury shoots Gravik in the face, but he quickly comes back to life, just like G’iah did.
The secret machine has made the Skrulls almost invincible. Talos lies on the road, and Fury drives away with the President to keep him safe.
