* ''[[Fanfic/SixesAndSevens Agent Carter: Phantom Pain]]'' is a tangled web full of these. The criminal factions are pushed by Joseph Manfredi (who wants to protect Whitney along with his usual organized crime), the Council of Nine (trying to keep their control of American Society after Whitney's mess), Cassandra Romulus (the same HYDRA power play, as well as obtain an ancient doomsday relic), Whitney Frost (who's still trying to master the Zero Matter), Michael Carter (who killed Thompson and is acting as a rogue agent from British Intelligence), and the FBI (who simply want to stop Peggy and her team at every corner). By the halfway point they've all interfered with each other in some way.
** Manfredi's operations [[spoiler: lend their help to Peggy after they determine Manfredi is in danger]].
** Cassandra Romulus [[spoiler: kills the Council of Nine (aside from those loyal to her) and turns out to have the feds in her pocket already]].
** Whitney Frost [[spoiler: is possessed by the Zero Matter itself and does...''something'' to Manfredi]].
