"I'm going to go in alone." Bucky turns to Winnie and Sam.
"Why?" Sam asks.
"Bucky does have a better chance of getting answers." Winnie adds.
"Also you're an Avenger. You know how he feels about that." Bucky says.
"It's not like you two are known for frolicking in the sun together."
"Zemo would be a good informant though, Sam."
"He was obsessed with HYDRA. We have a history together. Trust me. I got it." Bucky walks off to speak with Zemo.
Sam turns to Winnie " Why aren't you volunteering to go in with him?"
"I can't, I doubt Zemo likes me much." Winnie scoffs.
"Right, SHIELD."
"Yeah." Winnie nods hoping Sam drops it.
"So." Sam changes the subject, " You were kind of out of it when I mentioned Sharon."
"I said then that I didn't want to talk about it."
"How about now?"
"Look, right before Shield fell I found some documents connecting the dots.I saved them to a flash drive and drove my ass home to the apartment Sharon and I shared. I tried to tell her, she got defensive, we got in a fight. She claimed I was a part of Hydra. I called her a bitch and left." Winnie explains.
"That's rough."
"Yeah, I don't see us working it out. "
"There's always couple's therapy." Sam suggests with a laugh.
"Oh right, how'd that session go?"
"Got to stare into his baby blues."
"Did that help?"
"No."
"I could do better than that."
"Oh I bet he'd like that." Sam smirks.
"Not what I meant." Winnie rolls her eyes.
"What are you talking about breaking Zemo out of jail? Where the hell are we Buck? Have you lost your mind?" Sam asks.
"That's a fantastic idea, Buck." Winnie says sarcastically.
"We have no leads, no moves, nothing."
"What we have is one of the most dangerous men in the world behind bars."
"That Bucky wants to let out of those bars." Winnie sidesteps by Sam to avoid tripping.
"We also have eight super soldiers on the loose."
"Shit, he's gotta point, Sam."
"Zemo is gonna mess with our minds. Especially yours."
"He also probably doesn't like me either." Winnie adds rubbing the back of her neck.
"Offense, super soldiers go against everything he believes in. He is crazy but he still has a code."
"How crazy?" Winnie asks.
"Bag of cats." Sam answers.
"He blew up the UN, killed King T'chaka and framed you for it." Sam continues.
"We don't know how they're getting the serum."
Bucky says.
"We don't even know how much serum is out there." Winnie replies then adds " Or who put it out there in the first place."
"What did you do?" Sam asks.
"I didn't do anything." Bucky says calmly.
Winnie takes a deep breath and puts her hands on her guns. If Bucky did what she thinks he did, then it's only a matter of time before shit gets real.
"The weakest point in any system is not the software, the hardware, it's the human element…" Bucky continues.
Three seconds to draw, two seconds to fire, three seconds to draw two seconds to fire, Winnie thinks over and over.
"I don't like how natural, you're being about this, and where are we, man?"
More lights fill the area and a door opens.
"Woah Woah Woah, What are you doing here!"
"I didn't want to tell you cause I knew you'd never let this happen."
Winnie follows the two with a gun in hand.
"What did you do?"
"We need him, Sam."
"You're going back to prison."
"If I may.." Zemo starts.
"No!" Both shout.
Winnie stands besides them with her gun pointed at Zemo.
"Apologies."Zemo says softly then looks at Winnie.
"When Steve refused to sign the Sokovia Accords, you back him." Bucky continues.
"I really think I'm invaluable."
"Shut up." Sam turns to Zemo.
"If we do this, you don't make a move without our permission." Sam says to Zemo.
"Fair."
Zemo turns to Winnie and says "You've been very quiet. Penny for your thoughts."
"Don't let him mess with you." Sam says as Winnie puts her gun back in the holster. "Okay, Zemo, where do we start."
"So our first move is grand theft auto?"
"These are mine, collected by family over the generations." Zemo starts collecting his things out of the cars.
"Nice wheels." Winnie gestures to a vintage cadillac.
"So she speaks."
"Leave her alone." Bucky says.
"I ended the Winter Soldier program once before. I have no intention of leaving my work unfinished. To do this, we'll have to scale a ladder of lowlifes."
"Well, join the party. We've already started."
"First stop is a woman named Selby." Zemo says carrying his bags away. "Mid level fence I still have a line on. From there, we climb."
Walking up to the private jet, " So all this time you've been rich." Sam asks.
"I'm a Baron, Sam." Zemo says as the four climb on the jet, " My family was royalty until your friends destroyed my country."
Zemo drinks the champagne his butler serves him.
"It seems like you have me at a disadvantage. I don't know your name, and if I had known such a treasure would be with those two idiots, I'd escape sooner." He says to Winnie.
"She's Winnie, she's a hacker. That's your introduction." Bucky says gruffly.
" A hacker...interesting." Zemo sips at his champagne.
"Not really."
"Oh no, it is. You're not with an agency, I guess."
"No."
"No health insurance or dental, no pay check."
"None of that."
"Do you live in a house?"
"Yes."
"With no income?"
"Yes."
"Must have a wealthy family?
"No, I'm an orphan."
"Then pray tell how you get paid."
"Easy, like Buck said, I'm a hacker, To make money I hack into bank accounts of the rich and take very little in the grand scheme of things. One percent of the richest men in the world's wealth."
"Winnie." Sam nudges her.
"It's the truth." Winnie adds. "Besides not like he needed it in prison."
The conversation lulls to a deafening silence.
"Why don't you tell us where we're going?" Sam asks.
"Sorry I was just fascinated by this. I don't know what to call it, but this part seems to be important. Who is Nakajima?"
Bucky jerks across and grabs Zemo by the throat.
"If you touch that again, I'll kill you."
Zemo nods understanding and Bucky sits back down.
"You okay, Buck." Winnie asks.
Bucky nods.
"I'm sorry. I understand the list of you've wronged as the Winter Soldier."
"Don't push it."
"I've seen that book." Sam adds. "It was Steve's when he came out of the ice. I told him about Trouble Man. He wrote it in that book. Did you hear it? What'd you think?"
"I like '40s music, so..." Bucky answers.
"You didn't like it."
"I liked it."
"It is a masterpiece, James. Complete. Comprehensive. It captures the African-American experience"
"He's out of line, but he's right."
"Extremely right." Winnie adds.
"Everyone likes Marvin Gaye."
"I like Marvin Gaye."
"Steve adored Marvin Gaye."
"You must have really looked up to I realized something when I met him. The danger with people like him, America's super soldiers is that we put them on pedestals."
"Watch your step, Zemo."
Winnie watches Bucky, and nudges his leg with her foot. He nudges her foot back with a small smile.
"They become symbols. Icons. And then we start to forget about their flaws. From there cities fly, innocent people die. Movements are formed, wars are fought."
"There is no avoiding war; it can only be postponed to the advantage of others." Winnie quotes Machiavelli.
"Clever." Zemo says then adds " Do we want to live in a world full of people like the Red Skull? That is why we go to Madripoor."
"What's up with Madripoor? You talk about it like it's Skull Island."
"It's an island nation in the Indonesian archipelago. It was a pirate sanctuary in the 1800s."
"It's kept it's lawless ways."
"Well let's get the show on the road." Winnie picks up her bag.
"We can't exactly walk in as ourselves. James you will have to become someone you claim is gone."
"We have to fix this." I'm the only one who looks like a pimp."
"Only an American would assume a fashion forward Black man looks like a pimp. You look exactly like the man you're supposed to be playing. The sophisticated, charming, African rake named Conrad Mack, aka the Smiling Tiger."
"Who am I?" Winnie asks. She dressed in a glittering short golden dress with black thigh high boots.
"A sugar baby."
"Why am I the sugar baby?"
"It's a role I thought you would be the most comfortable with."
"Is this payback for stealing money from you."
"No."
"Oh well then Sam and I will be constantly vigilant. I have extra guns strapped to my thighs just in case."
"The Smiling Tiger doesn't have a sugar baby."
"Then who am I.." Winnie's face falls as she realizes who she's paired up with on this mission.
"That." Zemo points to her face," is payback enough."
"I don't like you at all, but good play." Winnie admits holding out her hand.
Zemo takes her hand and kisses it.
"Oh you don't have to do that." Winnie adds.
"No matter what happens we have to stay in character."
The four of them climb into the car headed for Low Town.
Winnie stays close to Zemo looking around.
Zemo wraps an arm around her and whispers "Relax and fake like you're meant to be here."
"Right." Winnie straightens her postures and twirls her hair between her fingers.
"We're here." Zemo then speaks to Bucky in russian: Ready to comply, Winter Soldier.
Once at the bar the bartender welcomes them " Hello Gentleman, and lady, Wasn't expecting you, Smiling Tiger."
"His plans changed, we have to do business with Selby."
"The usual?" The bartender suggests.
"Ah, Smiling Tiger, your favorite." Zemo says.
Winnie puts a hand on Zemo's shoulder and lightly squeezes it.
"I love these." Sam takes the glass
"Cheers, Conrad."
Sam takes the drink and swallows the snake organ.
A man comes up to Zemo and Winnie lets go of his arm. Zemo wraps his arm around her.
"I got word from on high. You ain't welcome here."
"I have no business with the Power Broker, but if he insists, he can either come and talk to me…"
"New haircut." The man nods towards Bucky.
"Or bring Selby for a chat."
"Power broker, really."
"Every kingdom needs its king. Let's just stay under his radar."
"Do you know him?"
"Only by reputation. In Madripoor he is judge, jury, and executioner." Zemo begins walking to the middle of the room speaking Russian to Bucky.
' Oh no, Winnie thinks, it's showtime.'
Bucky attacks the man standing beside Zemo. People begin recording. Multiple men are attacked until a gun is cocked.
"Didn't take much for him to fall back into form."
"You're undoing so much therapy." Winnie adds softly.
"Keep in character or the whole bar turns against us." Zemo adds softly before ending Bucky's commands.
"Selby will see you now." The bartender says.
"You good?" Sam asks.
Bucky doesn't answer, just walks off.
The four go up the stairs.
"You should know, Baron." Selby says " People don't just come into my bar and make demands."
"Not a demand, an offer."
"A lot has changed since you were here the way I thought you were rotting away in a German prison. How did you escape?"
"People like us always find a way, don't we. I'm sure you've already figured out what I'm here for."
"You're taller than I'd heard, Smiling Tiger."She purs, " What's the offer?"
"Tell us what you know about the super soldier serum. And I give you him." Zemo touches Bucky's face. "Along with the code words to control him, of will do anything you want."
"Now that's the Zemo I remember."
"I'm glad I decided not to kill you immediately. It'd be a bad date for the pretty thing on your arm. You were right to come to me. Arrogant but right. The super soldier serum is here in Madripoor. Dr. Wilfred Nagel is the man you want to thank. Or condemn, depending on what side of this you're on. The Power Broker had him working on the serum but things didn't go as planned."
"Is Nagel still in Madripoor?"
"Oh the bread crumbs you can have for free, but the bakery is gonna cost you, Baron. And before you get all cute. Don't think you can find Nagel without me."
Sam's cell phone buzzes.
"Answer it."
Winnie stands with her hands by her side ready to grab her guns.
"On speaker."
"Hello."
"Hey, um we need to talk about this situation. It's been driving me, nuts."
"What situation exactly are you talkin' about?"
"Are you high? You know what situation, it's the only situation me and you have."
"What situation, Sarah? Say it."
"The damn boat. And watch your tone. Okay? I let you slide at the bank."
"The bank, yeah." Sam scoffs. "Laundered so much… Yeah they'll come around."
"If that was the case, then why'd they dog you out, Big time."
"Yeah you damn right I'm Big Time. You'll see when I have that banker killed."
"Cass! What'd I tell you about the Cheerios! I don't have time for this! Sam I'm sorry let me call you back."
"Sam? Who's Sam? Kill them."
The window breaks and Selby falls shot in the chest.
Bucky and Sam fight the two guards with Bucky grabbing the gun. Winnie follows Zemo to the door.
"They're going to pin this on us."
"We have a real problem now, so leave your weapons and follow my lead."
As they walk out, phone's all over the island begin buzzing with a bounty on the four of them.
"This is not good."
"Obviously not good." Winnie says
A man with a large gun begins shooting at the four, Sam and Bucky go in one direction, Zemo and Winnie in the other.
Winnie begins to notice the pattern of the sniper killing all those who want us dead. It reminds her of the cover she had on missions with Sharon. Winnie and Zemo keep going until they meet up with Sam and Bucky.
"We seem to have a guardian angel."
"Well this is too perfect." A woman says walking out of the shadows. " Drop it Zemo." She has him at gunpoint.
"Sharon." Bucky says
"You cost me everything." Sharon takes a step towards Zemo.
"Sharon wait, someone recreated the super soldier serum and Zemo had a lead." Sam explains.
"That explains why you guys are here. And Selby's dead."
"Then what are you doing here?"
"I stole Steve's shield, remember? I also took the wings for your ass to save his ass, from his ass. I didn't have the avengers to back me up. So I'm off the grid in Madripoor."
Winnie clears her throat," Sharon."
"Winnie."
"Don't blow smoke, I was on the run too."
"Was, is, big difference. I don't speak to my family anymore. I can't."
"Listen Sharon we need your help." Bucky asks.
"No we don't." Winnie argues.
Sharon laughs.
"Please." Bucky tries again.
"Bucky." Winnie interjects.
"Winnie, we need her help. You two can get over it." Bucky turns to Winnie.
"I have a place in High Town, You'll be safe there."
"Looks like breaking all those laws is treating you well."
"I thought if I had to hustle, I might as well enjoy the life of a real hustler. You know how much I can get for a real Monet."
"You never liked art before." Winnie mentions crossing her arms.
"Deactivate your hustle mode. You sell fake Monets."
"No, she means real. This gallery specializes in stolen artwork. Monet. Van Gogh. Classics."
Winnie stops by one painting, and Sharon stands beside her.
"The Beach in Pourville, it was your favorite, right." Sharon points out.
"Yeah, I didn't think you were listening, when I spoke about it while experimenting."
"You said that if you could jump into any painting like Mary Poppins, you'd choose this one. So you could lay on the beach after jumping in the waves and watch the sun set."
"I know what I said."
"Have you?"
"Do I look like I've been to any beaches?"
"There's a beach on High Town. You could stay."
"I can't leave Buck and Sam."
"You call him Buck."
"Yeah."
"It's nice," Sharon turns to the group away from Winnie " You guys need to change I'm hosting clients in an hour."
Winnie changes into the gown that Sharon picked for her. Albeit not as sparkly as the one Zemo picked out. It was nice and understated. A short lilac halter dress with a black belt paired with her same thigh high black boots, Zemo had picked out.
Sharon opens the door.
"Sure, Sharon, you can come right in." Winnie puts on the pearl earrings Sharon picked out.
"You look great."
"Thanks."
"You were right."
"About."
"Everything, shield, the government, being pessimistic. I didn't believe you, and then I stole the shield and after being on the run I realized I was wrong the whole time. I shouldn't have called you a hydra agent, especially after everything you did for Shield and the inventions."
"The rocket boots work."
"Course, they did, you made them."
"You think apologizing after more than seven years is going to fix everything."
"No, because I know you, and you hold grudges like no one else I know. But it's a start to not hating me."
Winnie sighs, "I don't hate you, that's too strong of a word but another start would be helping us a little more."
"I thought you didn't need my help."
"Buck was right. Any other information you have is going to help us."
" Speaking of Bucky, what is your deal?"
"Deal?"
"Yeah are you two friends or more, because I…" Sharon starts but gets interrupted.
"Don't." Winnie says sharply.
"Oh." Sharon smiles.
"Not like that. It's just, you remember when we'd go out together, and I'd flirt with a guy and then they'd ask me for your number."
"You don't want that to happen to Bucky."
"I plead the fifth."
"Noted. Just uh he might have heart palpitations when he sees you in this dress."
"Sharon, go check on the guys."
Sharon walks in the room as Sam's changing shirts.
"Much better."
"What's going on Sharon? You don't ever wanna come back home?"
"They'll lock me up if I step foot back in the States."
"Madripoor doesn't allow extradition."
"Look I'm sorry I didn't call. But after the blip and the chaos. I just.."
"Look you know the hero thing is a joke, right. The way you gave up that down, you must know it's all hypocrisy."
"He knows. And not so deep down."
"By the way how is the new Cap?" Sharon asks.
"Don't get me started." Bucky answers.
"I punched him in the face." Winnie enters the room in her new dress.
"You look nice." Bucky looks away from Winnie.
"Thanks." Winnie sits on the other couch by Zemo.
"Please you buy into all that stars and stripes bullshit. Before you were his pet psychopath, you were ! Cap's best friend." Sharon sits down by Bucky.
"Wow, she's kind of awful now."
"Karli Morgenthau and at least seven others have taken the serum." Sam starts.
Winnie looks down at her phone tracking the shield and John just to see that they are still in Germany.
"You guys really should steer clear of all this for your own safety. Winnie, seriously, you can and should stay here with me. You know all about art and I can get you drawing again, or inventing. Plenty of people would pay big money for rocket boots, or taser whips, boomerang daggers."
"I can't."
"We know it's a risk, but we won't leave until we find the person that cracked the code."
"We got a name, Wilfred Nagel."
"Nagel works for the Power Broker."
"We need your help Sharon, I can get your name cleared."
"You haggling with my life?"
"Not like that."
"I don't buy that."
"You pretending like you can clear my name."
"Okay maybe it is hypocrisy. Maybe you're right. What happened to you. But I'm willing to try if you are. They cleared the bionic staring machine, and he killed almost everybody he's met."
Sharon looks at Bucky, he's glaring at Zemo, who's talking to Winnie about art.
"You draw and paint?" Zemo asks.
"I did, when I had the stuff or the time." Winnie shrugs and pulls out her tattered sketchbook with pages falling out. She opens it flipping through a few landscapes and portraits of people she saw at coffee shops.
"You stole money from a billionaire and you didn't steal enough for art supplies." Zemo questions.
"I only stole money from you for rent, groceries and to sponsor a few Sokovian families." Winnie explains. " I make a tight budget and stick to it."
"You.. what?" Zemo looks surprised.
"I sponsored a few Sokovian families to emigrate to the United States. It was anonymous so I don't know where they ended up."
"I heard that." Bucky adds to Sharon.
"I don't trust charity."
"All right, a deal then."
"You help us out, and I get your name cleared."
Sharon shakes his hand.
"Well I sell to some well connected people. Lay low, blend in, enjoy the party. Try to stay out of trouble. I'll see what I can find."
"Trouble."
Loud electronic music plays. People are everywhere, dancing with everyone. Winnie feels a little out of place.
"A part to play,again." Zemo says from behind her. "Relax, your friend said to have fun."
"Ex-friend, and secondly parties like this aren't fun for me. I'd rather be.." She's interrupted by Zemo.
"You'd rather be in some greasy spoon hole in the wall diner with James, sharing a milkshake."
"Malts, and second why do you think this?"
"On the plane when after James choked me, you asked if he was okay."
"Friends do that."
"Again on the plane when I made James uncomfortable, you kicked his leg."
"Yeah, checking up on him without asking if he's okay. "
" He stares at you when you aren't looking."
"He stares at everyone."
"When he stares at you though, his features soften."
"And."
"Also when we were talking about art, he was glaring at me."
"He doesn't like you much anyway. He has reason to glare at you that doesn't have to do with me."
"I'm just saying if you two both feel the same way, why wait? No one is guaranteed time on this earth."
"You're ridiculous. Also you might want to change your pin code. Your dead wife's birthday isn't a secure code." Winnie walks off from Zemo.
Winnie finds Bucky by himself on the outskirts of the dance floor.
"Need a breather."
"Yeah."
"Winnie, stay away from Zemo. He plays mind games"
"I can handle myself. We were talking about you."
"That's another reason why you should stay away from him."
"He said you like me cause you stare at me, but.."
"I gotta find Sam." Bucky walks off to find Sam.
The moment Bucky is out of sight Zemo walks back to her.
"Did you get the answer?" He asks.
"Yeah, I did. Not the one I wanted" Winnie nods then says " Let's dance, Zem."
Bucky looks around and finds Sam.
"Winnie knows." Bucky says nervously to Sam.
"She's a genius and a hacker. What specifically does she know?"
"She knows that I.." Bucky trails off when Sharon arrives.
"Don't let me interrupt this." She says. " Winnie knows that you.."
"I'm fond of her being around." Bucky finishes.
"That was a secret?" Sam asks.
"Yes, did you know?"
"Of course I knew. The real question is does she like you?" Sam looks towards Sharon.
"I'm not violating Winnie's trust. She just stopped hating me. I also found him."
"Okay Bucky, let's put in a pin in your love life problem for now, and let's get this guy. Here we go."
Sharon signals Winnie and Zemo and they follow the three out of the party.
"Madripoor can give New York a run for its money."
"They know how to party."
"You're not a bad dancer, Zem."
"Neither are you Win."
"With that bounty on your head, the longer you're in Madripoor, the less likely you're ever leaving. All right. He's in there. Container four-two-six-one. I'll keep an eye out while you guys talk to Nagel."
"Need help out here." Winnie offers.
"No I got it." Sharon insists.
Winnie follows the three guys inside putting in her ear piece.
"Completely empty."
"I'm positive it has to be."
Walking around on the inside with a flashlight Zemo pushes in the false wall. Music is playing softly.
"Mel Torme, good taste." Winnie whispers.
"Agreed." Zemo motions for Bucky and Sam to go forward with the guns.
Winnie pulls out her guns, ready for anything and follows walking through the makeshift listens out for any signs of struggle from Sharon outside.
Zemo stops the record.
" ?"
"Who are you? What do you want?"
"We know you created the super soldier serum."
"Get out of my lab."
"Hey. You know who he is is Baron Zemo.I know you've heard of him too. You seem like a pretty smart guy. So you better become conversational real quick."
"How about a counter proposal? Make me a better offer and I'll talk."
Winnie looks around at the chemicals and the serum making process. It would take years to make sense of this.
"Guys we have company." Sharon says from the ear pieces. "Every bounty hunter in the city is here we gotta go."
Bucky grabs the doctor and puts him in a chair with a gun in his face. He fires the gun near him.
"Okay.I was brought into Hydra's Winter Soldier program to pick up their work after the five failed test subjects in Siberia. When Hydra fell I was recruited by the CIA. They had blood samples from an American test subject, with semi-stable traces of serum in his much labor, I was able to isolate the necessary components in his blood. I was a god. I did what no other scientist since Erskine was able to do. But mine was going to be different. No clunky machines or jacked up bodies. Mine was going to be subtle, optimized. Perfect."
"How have we never heard about this?"
"Because before I was able to complete my work. I turned to when I returned, it was five years later,the program had been abandoned, so I came here. THe Power Broker was more than happy to fund the recreation of my work."
"How many vials did you make?"
"Twenty."
"Karli Morgenthau stole those, so I can only imagine what the Power Broker has planned for that poor girl."
"Where's Karli now?"
"I don't know where she is. But a couple of days ago she called and asked if I could help someone named Donya Madani. Poor woman has tuberculosis. Typical of overpopulation in displacement camps like that."
"Well, what happened to her?"
"Not my pig, not my farm."
"Is there any serum in this lab?"
"No."
"Now what?"
"Guys we're seriously outta time here."
Zemo shots the doctor.
"No!"
A large explosion throws the five on the other side of the lab.
Bucky, Sam, Winnie, and Sharon on one side with Zemo on the other.
"Anybody see Zemo?" Sam asks.
"Let's go." Bucky pulls Winnie and Sharon up.
"Alright wait for my signal."
Gunfire breaks out.
Sam goes early.
"Damnit." Bucky says running after providing cover for Sam.
"You know the drill, right Winnie." Sharon says.
"Yeah yeah, go."
Sharon and Winnie run and fall into their old routine, as though it's been no time since they were partners. The four find cover and keep shooting.
"And you like living here?"
"It's not terrible."
"It's pretty terrible, Sharon."
"I thought you were going left."
"You went the wrong way."
"I was clearing the way."
"Do they always fight like this?" Sharon asks.
"Pretty much." Winnie answers.
"I came out first. You had to follow me."
"And where are we now!"
"Guys, Not the time!"
"I'm out."
"This is a barricade."
"It's in every action movie."
"Might have some more in my backpack." Winnie tells Sharon.
"You carry ammunition in a Jansport."
"I didn't judge you in your home with the off season prada purse you were carrying."
The four look up and see Zemo with a purple mask sniping the way clear.
"Go." Bucky taps Winnie and Sharon
They grab each other and run.
Bucky and Sam follow into a shipping container.
A car screeches to halt with Zemo in it,
"Supercharged."
"You're going back to jail."
"Do you want to find Karli or not?"
"He's right, we need him."
"There's three of us and at least twenty of them."
"Fine but if you try that shit again…"
"I wouldn't dream of it."
"Well that was one hell of a reunion."
The four get in the car.
"Come back to the states with us."
"I can't. Just get me the pardon you promised me. And here." Sharon gives Winnie back the flash drive with all the hydra information on it.
"Thanks."
"You're not gonna move your seat up, are you."
"No."
On board the private jet Sam calls Joaquin about Donya Madani.
"Oh ask him about the secret Winnie project."
"Sure."
"Do you have information on some secret Winnie project?"
"Yeah yeah it's a bad name, she'll work on it. Nothing, yet, okay more importantly is Donya Madani."
Winnie looks down at her phone tracking John with earbuds in listening to his conversations.
"You okay?" Bucky asks seeing Sam flop down into a chair.
"Yeah. Just thinking about all the shit Sharon had to go through, and Nagel referring to the American test subject like Isaiah wasn't even a real person. Just makes me wonder how many people have to get steamrolled to make way for this hunk of metal."
"Well it depends on who you ask. That hunk of metal saved a lot of lives."
"Yeah I get that. All right. Maybe I made a mistake."
"You did."
"Yeah."
"Maybe I shouldn't have put it in a museum. I should have destroyed it. "
"Look that shield represents a lotta things to a lotta people, including me. The world is upside down, and we need a new Cap. and it aint gonna be Walker. So before you destroy it, I'll take it from him myself."
Joaquin calls Sam back and Zemo comes back with plates of food.
He gestures towards Winnie and says to Bucky" Can she hear us?"
"No, she's in survelliance mode. Put a tracker on the new Cap."
"Smart."
"Surprised she hasn't put one on you."
"Winnie is quite special, isn't she?"
"Whatever you're thinking about saying or doing, don't."
"Oh I have no interest in her. Besides a financial one."
"You want her to hack on your behalf, not gonna happen."
"No, she's an artist."
"You want to pay her to draw and paint."
"Yes, she's very talented. She showed me her sketchbook, you've seen it haven't you?"
"No."
"Hm, interesting."
"Stop."
"They found Madani. Dead. She died in Riga, a city near the Baltic Sea."
"I have a place we can go." Zemo says. "I for one am looking forward to coming face to face with Karli. Oeznik we're changing course."
"Walker knows you two broke out Zemo." Winnie says taking out her earbuds. " He's also not too concerned with his rules of engagement."
Walking down the streets of Riga, Latvia, Zemo begins talking. Winnie looks at the small buildings lining the street, it looks like painting by the sea.
"I don't suppose any of you bothered visiting the memorial, at least the thief donated." Zemo gestures to Winnie.
Zemo stops at a large building, "We are here."
"I'm gonna go on a walk." Bucky says.
"You good?"
"Yeah."
"Be careful." Winnie adds.
"Always am." Bucky nods.
Once Zemo and Sam are inside Winnie follows them.
Sam turns towards Winnie with a smile.
"What?"
"Be careful." Sam mimics her.
"Not you too."
"No it's cute. It's adorable actually. That you have no clue." Sam says.
