Minutes 26–30 of Captain America: The Winter Soldier are. In one, a veteran named Garcia describes what it felt like to swerve away from a bag she thought was an IED — and then get pulled over by the cops. In another, Nick Fury is being pincered from all sides by what appears to be the entire Washington D.C. Metropolitan Police Department, in a car that turns out to have a gatling gun where the center console should be. The scenes are separated by about three minutes of runtime. They are making the same argument.\nKyle Olson, Pete Wright, and Matthew Fox (Rob is competing in a Mortal Kombat tournament, where the crew wishes him nothing but fatalities, animalities, and babalities) spend this episode on the craft of Sam Wilson’s introduction — specifically, why the scene at the VA could have handed Steve Rogers a sidekick and instead gave him someone who has seen some stuff. They also spend time on Angela Russo-Otsot, the Russo Brothers’ younger sister, who is billed as a nepotism hire and has credits on The Shield, Cherry, and most of the Russo Brothers’ major productions — which makes the nepo-framing pretty tough to defend. Along the way: why does Nick Fury call Maria Hill and not Captain America? Does a car AI rebooting only the propulsion system count as good design or good luck?

Giving Steve Rogers an honest “I don’t know” as his emotional starting position — and making it count — is rarer than it should be. Don’t skip this one.\nEpisode Spotlight\nAngela Russo-Otsot is a writer and producer with credits on The Shield, Cherry, and most of the Russo Brothers’ major productions.
