!Tropes
* ActionGirl / OneWomanArmy: [[BadassNormal Peggy's no Captain America]] but she does excellently on a mission intended for 3-5 agents all by herself.
* ADayInTheLimelight: For Peggy Carter.
* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: Peggy's masterful performance in the Zodiac mission leads to [[spoiler:her being invited to co-run SHIELD with Howard Stark.]]
* BackdoorPilot: Although not produced as such, response to the short was so strong that, coupled with the success of ''Series/AgentsOfSHIELD'', ABC eventually ordered an ''Series/AgentCarter'' series as a spinoff to the short and as a prequel/spinoff for ''[=AoS=]''.
* BaitAndSwitchComment: As the office closes up for the night, Agent Flynn tells Peggy that he and the others are going to go out for a drink. For a moment it sounds as though he's going to invite her to come along with them, but then it turns out he's actually asking for her to clean up the office.

* DeskJockey: What Peggy was reduced to after the events of ''The First Avenger''.
* HeadphonesEqualIsolation: A pre-headphones variant, but still the same idea; the desk guard of the Zodiac hideout doesn't overhear Peggy beating the snot out of two other flunkies because he's got the radio turned up.
* HeartbrokenBadass: Peggy. Agent Flynn even accuses their superiors of letting her still work for them because of this.
* ImprovisedWeapon: Peggy uses her suitcase to beat up Zodiac's agents.
* KickingAssInAllHerFinery: Peggy defeats seven mooks with her bare hands (and her briefcase) while dressed in a fashionable [[TheForties 1940s professional skirt, high heels, and jacket]]. She even stops to check her makeup in the middle of battle!
* MacGuffin: The briefcase full of serum.
* MeanBoss / {{Jerkass}}: Agent Flynn, who's kept Peggy from going on missions in the three months that she's been there.
* MilitaryMaverick: Peggy decides to go after the mission even when she wasn't assigned to do so.
* NeverASelfMadeWoman: Agent Flynn tells Peggy that the only reason she has a job is because everyone feels sorry for Captain America's bereft girlfriend. Considering Peggy was a badass long before Steve's procedure...
* OriginStory: The very beginning of an origin story for [[spoiler: SHIELD, which Peggy is invited to help form along with Philips, Stark, and presumably the Howling Commandos.]]
* ProtagonistTitle: Just like the [[Series/AgentCarter series]].
* TheStinger: [[spoiler: Howard Stark and Dum Dum Dugan are sitting next to each other as [[DistractedByTheSexy Dugan looks confusingly towards two women wearing bikinis]], which Stark has to explain to him about as he's never heard of them before.]]
** A second one also occurs at the very end in text.
--> Steve Rogers will return in ''Film/CaptainAmericaTheWinterSoldier''.
* TimeSkip: The one-shot begins by showing Peggy and Steve's last conversation in ''Film/CaptainAmericaTheFirstAvenger'', then fast-forwards one year later to Peggy's current job.
* TheUnreveal: The organization Peggy works for is hot on the tail of "Zodiac," an enigmatic person or persons (possibly both) that has eluded even their best groups of agents. As Peggy closes in on their operation, she seems to have cornered them - however, upon following information on Zodiac's location [[spoiler: she finds only a [[McGuffin mysterious serum]] that is not elaborated on in the short itself.]]
** SavedForTheSequel: Presumably this will be further elaborated on in the series.
