The two step in to cover minutes eleven through fifteen, which means you're getting a slightly different configuration of deeply considered opinions, comic book scholarship, and one truly committed Randy Newman impression.\nThe main event of these five minutes is the Cap vs. Batroc facedown, which Matthew finds baffling on multiple levels (why does a super soldier voluntarily make it a fair fight when fifteen hostages are at stake?) and Kyle finds completely logical on a thematic level (internal code, no witnesses required). They are both right, which is the fun part. They also make time to give proper credit to stunt double Sam Hargrave, trace George St-Pierre's Batroc back to his comics origins, and ask the truly important question: did Stan Lee name a French character \"the Leaper\" because of frogs? Kyle doesn't think so. The sixties were a wild time.\nThe back half of these minutes shifts gears entirely — from fists to politics — as we land at the Triskelion for the first time and meet Nick Fury in his natural habitat (a very sparsely decorated office). The Cap-vs.-Fury conversation is a tightrope of manipulation in both directions, the glass elevator is identified as Chekhov's most important elevator, and the hosts spend a genuinely enjoyable amount of time on whether Nick Fury's \"last time I trusted someone, I lost an eye\" is a reference to a person, a bad decision, or a very cute alien cat. Matthew has a headcanon about this. It is correct.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/JlOjETb_he-Cl9RIo-EmPIK5n5bllZ_Q1aRAfBGlSIE/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9iMzBi/NWYzMjA0MzBiNTQy/ODhhODNmNGEzNjVj/OTFiYi5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
