Rose keeps the front desk of a New York telephone company that just so happens to never route a single honest phone call. She is the warm, pleasant face everyone meets first. Trading small talk and hat compliments while the switchboard behind her carries the real traffic. Behind the friendly operator sits the Strategic Scientific Reserve and Rose is the one working the seam, waving agents past the public fiction, into the classified work on the other side of the wall.
When Peggy Carter turns up for the day, the grim task of breaking the news falls to Rose. Ray Krzeminski is dead. She can barely get the words out, shaken and openly grieving as she tells Peggy how awful it is. She is one of the office's own, and the loss cuts her deep.
Rose remains part of the SSR's support staff while Peggy is being questioned. She works alongside the agents as the investigation into Peggy, Stark, and Leviathan develops and remains connected to the SSR's day-to-day operations.
Rose is the telephone operator that Jarvis convinces to allow him into the SSR with Stark's 'Confession'.
