Season 4[]
"Mt. Weather"[]
Carlson greets the team after they execute the remaining members of Congress. She explains the situation regarding the President's thumbprint and shows them the VCR tape explaining what the Black Rainbow weapon is. She then escorts them to the 25th floor of the bunker, along with her Secret Service detail, and aids them in attempting to find the President. Carlson then positively identifies the President that Warren finds, and takes them back to the surface level. When Warren casually mentions that they are attempting to stop Black Rainbow, Carlson then orders Sarge and Agents Johnson and Johnson to arrest the team and takes them to the Oval Office for execution. However, when Sarge instead kills Carlson, she becomes a Mad Z. She is then killed by Warren.
Trivia[]
- Carlson's Oval Office contains many references to the Reagan era of the Cold War, such as many photos of Ronald Reagan, a red telephone, and a jar of jelly beans.
