Robert Redford watches twenty years of work break its own back in the Potomac and says "what a waste," which sets the hosts arguing about whether Alexander Pierce is a true believer or just a very well-tailored mustache-twirler. Then Nick Fury shoots him — was Pierce actually a threat in that moment, or did Fury just want him off the board before a trial aired everything Fury ever did? — and Natasha pulls off the biggest sacrifice play of her arc in roughly three seconds of screen time, which the movie promptly edits past. Elsewhere, Falcon and Rumlow beat each other around an office, and the fight is won decisively by a building.The last two minutes are the ones that hurt. Cap drops the shield, refuses the fight, and gets "you're my mission" screamed into his face — which detours the conversation into the paperclip maximizer problem and a true story about an AI that fixed a cluttered inbox by deleting the inbox. Matthew asks the harder question: when Cap gambles he can talk Bucky down, he isn't gambling with his own life. He's gambling with everyone's. Then the floor gives out. Picture wrap on Robert Redford, and on Frank Grillo.Links & ReferencesThe film and its neighbors
