Zemo dancing is the newest brand sensation marvel has ever made ever since bully maguire’s dance has been the most special one.

[@atari303]

John Walker: "DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?!?!" Everyone & Steve Rogers: "Son, just don't."

I'm surprised Hector didn't see the Wolverine easter egg when Zemo and the gang were walking past the different bars. The camera panned up to show a bar called The Princess Bar which is the bar frequented a lot by Wolverine under his Patch persona.

Hector, Adam and Agustin as a team reacting = Sam, Zemo and Bucky teaming up this episode🔥

[@IronMan-jj2fd]

Uncanny resemblance 🧐 But the real question is who is who?

[@snoogle20]

Hesitant prediction: Sam and Bucky should not have talked about Isaiah in front of Zemo on that plane. I’m worried for that man.

[@Omegafire17]

Depends upon whether or not he can accept that this particular super soldier just wants to be left alone, and doesn't want any trouble/doesn't want to be an icon/etc (and of course, that he's been off the scene for decades already, so it's best for everyone that he stay that way) ^If he can, there's no reason to go after him imo.

[@CitizenoftheWorld1]

@@Omegafire17 Agreed, I think Zemo is empathetic enough to spare Isiah considering the torture he been through and his choice of shutting himself from the superhero world

[@jeremybarnes3698]

True. Even if Zemo wants to visit Isaiah, I don’t think he’d kill him.

[@ragtimeraver]

I can't see Zemo tolerating the possibility that someone could start experimenting with Isiah's blood again. He's empathetic, but like he told Bucky, it's not personal.

[@nehaazhar946]

I don't think it's very fair to say that it is only Sam's show. Bucky has lived in the shadow of Captain America first and then Hydra, I think this show helps Bucky become his own person. This is as much Bucky's show as it is Sam's.

[@tonyrandall4364]

MCU Mission Impossible!The team up didn't know we needed Zemo, Sam, and Bucky. Sharon Carter kicked some ass. Wyatt is slowly go to dark side. Wakanda enters the arena. Come on Friday!

[@roastpork5437]

Sam idolizes Steve Rogers at first but later he gained newfound respect for Steve and knowing what Steve had done up to the end of Endgame, so much respect for the man. And they're friends! Sam is so honored to be Steve's friend but at the same time, he knows Steve does not ever put himself on a pedestal and Steve is not above anyone.

[@KW-vy1rf]

I really loved hearing your thoughts about Sam and Isaiah Bradley and how Sam feels like the heart of the show. I would be shocked if we didn't get a scene where he and Isaiah sit down and have a serious talk about everything and I'm really looking forward to that. I think it's going to be a huge turning point for Sam. I'm kind of surprised you guys didn't say anything about Zemo's continuous goading of Bucky in this episode and attempt to force him back into the headspace he was in as the Winter Soldier. I didn't realize how dangerous Zemo could be to Bucky just on a psychological level but I think this episode did a great job of making Zemo just fun and helpful enough to mask some of his clear machinations with regards to Bucky specifically. I wonder if Zemo's endgame is to try to get Bucky to kill himself because he wants him to believe that he isn't capable of change or is Zemo actually going to try to take him out the way he clearly plans to take out the Flag Smashers?

[@cerdas1814]

Something that Walker said last episode really bugged me. He said, in the interview with GMA, that Steve had guts (which is what he claimed he also had). But to me, that proved that he didn’t know CA. Cause it wasn’t that Steve had “guts” it was that Steve had heart. And in this episode, I think you can see even more the difference between Wyatt and Steve’s CA, the difference between guts and heart.

[@meta_marc9499]

You guys are my favorite reaction trio!

[@TDiveley87]

To add to the point of "Captain America and the White Wolf", if Bucky is to move on I think that he'll ditch the name "Winter Soldier" because of everything attached to it. Taking up the name White Wolf will allow him to be proud of the title because of the good that comes from it and really wear it like hes a new man. With no one to utter the name "Winter Soldier" it will eventually pass from knowledge and people wouldn't be able to peg him as a bad dude on sight like the night club scene with Zemo, and Sam.

[@connorjones2958]

[@dembones5005]

While I'm sure the Wakandans would have *loved* to get custody of Zemo themselves they were probably at least pacified he was sentenced at all. It makes perfect sense they'd be watching him like a hawk in his incarceration - either to make sure he stayed there, or even itching for an excuse to take him to Wakanda (like if he escaped, for instance). And I hope they get him. He's been out a day and has shot an unarmed man in their own place of work in front of our protagonists. He's not a friend or misunderstood in any way: He's Baron Zemo. He's a stone cold murderer with an agenda.

[@alexiskahlert6788]

I agree. Everyone's focusing on easter eggs and cameos when the heart of the shows is always the character development for the main characters. This show will do the exact same thing to Sam and Bucky like WV did for Wanda and Vision.

[@blueroninstudios]

"Sharon is so jaded, which was exactly how she was in the comics". THANK YOU, HECTOR! It really annoys me when people see how Sharon's personality is now, and they're like "why is so .... um .... different?" Being on the run from the government will do that to her, and her only crime was being loyal to Steve and his friends. Her attitude is justified, and she better get that pardon. Also, Sharon BEING the Power Broker?! Y'all been drinking a bit too much of that Madripoor snake juice shots!

I love the idea of Isiah pushed Sam and Bucky to have peace by acknowledging He killed the man's son.
