Natasha had just given him everything she could find on the Winter Soldier and had walked away to take a call. Steve spoke to Sam for a moment and then he heard Natasha raise her voice.
"Alina! How many times do I have to tell you and James, you can't call this number without asking your dad first? . . . What? Give the phone to Dad...Put your- PUT YOUR FATHER ON THE PHONE!... CLINTON FRANCIS BARTON, I leave for one week and you manage to screw up this badly! ... HOW DO YOU FORGET THE KIDS HAVE TO GO TO SCHOOL?! ... " The rest of the conversation was left up to Sam's and Steve's imaginations as the Widow got in her car, and sped off.
"Huh," Steve said befuddled, staring her car driving away.
"I feel sorry for Clint, whoever he is," Sam commented.
"I would normally say he could hold his own, but right now I fear for his life."
