Captain America: Civil War Page #3

Synopsis: With many people fearing the actions of super heroes, the government decides to push for the Hero Registration Act, a law that limits a hero's actions. This results in a division in The Avengers. Iron Man stands with this Act, claiming that their actions must be kept in check otherwise cities will continue to be destroyed, but Captain America feels that saving the world is daring enough and that they cannot rely on the government to protect the world. This escalates into an all-out war between Team Iron Man (Iron Man, Black Panther, Vision, Black Widow, War Machine, and Spider-Man) and Team Captain America (Captain America, Bucky Barnes, Falcon, Scarlet Witch, Hawkeye, and Ant Man) while a new villain emerges.

Focus up. I'm sorry.

Did I just mishear you...

- or did you agree with me?

- I want to take it back now.

No, you can't retract it.

Thank you. Unprecedented.

Okay. Case closed. I win.

I have to go.

And now, I would like

to invite Sharon Carter

to come up and say a few words.

Margaret Carter was known to most

as a founder of S.H.I.E.L.D...

but I just knew her as Aunt Peggy.

She had a photograph in her office.

Aunt Peggy standing next to JFK.

As a kid, that was pretty cool.

But it was a lot to live up to.

Which is why I never told

anyone we were related.

I asked her once how she managed

to master diplomacy and espionage...

in a time when no one wanted to see

a woman succeed at either.

She said, compromise where you can.

But where you can't, don't.

Even if everyone is telling you

that something wrong is something right.

Even if the whole world

is telling you to move...

it is your duty to plant

yourself like a tree...

look them in the eye and say

"No, you move."

When I came out of the ice, I thought

everyone I had known was gone.

Then I found out she was alive.

I was just lucky to have her.

She had you back, too.

Who else signed?

Tony, Rhodey, Vision.

Clint?

Says he's retired.

- Wanda?

- TBD.

I'm off to Vienna

for the signing of the Accords.

There's plenty of room on the jet.

Just because it's the path

of least resistance...

doesn't mean it's the wrong path.

Staying together is more important

than how we stay together.

What are we giving up to do it?

I'm sorry, Nat.

I can't sign it.

I know.

Then what are you doing here?

I didn't want you to be alone.

Come here.

At a special United Nations conference...

117 countries have come together

to ratify the Sokovia Accords.

Excuse me, Ms Romanoff?

- Yes?

- These need your signature.

- Thank you.

- Thanks.

I suppose neither of us

is used to the spotlight.

Oh, well, it's not always so flattering.

You seem to be doing all right so far.

Considering your last trip

to Capitol Hill...

I wouldn't think you'd be particularly

comfortable in this company.

Well, I'm not.

And that alone makes me glad

you are here, Ms Romanoff.

Why? You don't approve of all this?

The Accords, yes.

The politics, not really.

Two people in a room can get

more done than a hundred.

Unless you need to move a piano.

Ms Romanoff.

King T'Chaka.

Please, allow me to apologise

for what happened in Nigeria.

Thank you.

Thank you for agreeing to all of this.

I'm sad to hear that Captain Rogers

will not be joining us today.

Yes, so am I.

If everyone could please be seated.

This assembly is now in session.

That is the future calling.

Such a pleasure.

Thank you.

For a man who disapproves of diplomacy,

you're getting quite good at it.

I'm happy, Father.

Thank you.

Thank you.

When stolen Wakandan vibranium

was used to make a terrible weapon...

we in Wakanda were forced

to question our legacy.

Those men and women killed in Nigeria...

were part of a goodwill mission

from a country too long in the shadows.

We will not, however,

let misfortune drive us back.

We will fight to improve

the world we wish to join.

I am grateful to the Avengers

for supporting this initiative.

Wakanda is proud

to extend its hand in peace.

Everybody get down!

My mom tried

to talk me out of enlisting...

but, um, not Aunt Peggy.

She bought me my first thigh holster.

Very practical.

And stylish.

CIA has you stationed over here now?

Berlin. Joint Terrorism Task Force.

Right. Right. Sounds fun.

I know, right?

I've been meaning to ask you.

When you were spying on me

from across the hall...

You mean when I was doing my job.

Did Peggy know?

She kept so many secrets.

I didn't want her to have one from you.

Thanks for walking me back.

Sure.

Steve.

There's something you gotta see.

A bomb hidden in a news van...

Who's coordinating?

...ripped through

the UN building in Vienna.

Good. They're solid. Forensics?

More than 70 people have been injured.

At least 12 are dead,

including Wakanda's King T'Chaka.

Officials have released

a video of a suspect...

who they have identified

as James Buchanan Barnes...

the Winter Soldier.

The infamous HYDRA agent...

linked to numerous acts of terrorism

and political assassinations.

I have to go to work.

Call MI6, see if we can get

Micro Forensics to hurry this up.

We need the whole team here

in two hours or it's not worth it.

I'm very sorry.

In my culture...

death is not the end.

It's more of a stepping-off point.

You reach out with both hands...

and Bast and Sekhmet,

they lead you into the green veldt...

where you can run forever.

That sounds very peaceful.

My father thought so.

I am not my father.

T'Challa...

Task Force will decide

who brings in Barnes.

Don't bother, Ms Romanoff.

I'll kill him myself.

Yeah?

You all right?

Uh, yeah, thanks. I got lucky.

I know how much Barnes

means to you. I really do.

Stay home. You'll only make this worse.

For all of us.

Please.

Are you saying you'll arrest me?

No.

Someone will.

If you interfere. That's how it works now.

If he's this far gone, Nat,

I should be the one to bring him in.

Why?

Because I'm the one

least likely to die trying.

Sh*t.

She tell you to stay out of it?

Might have a point.

He'd do it for me.

1945, maybe.

I just want to make sure

we consider all our options.

The people that shoot at you

usually wind up shooting at me.

Tips have been pouring in

since that footage went public.

Everybody thinks

the Winter Soldier goes to their gym.

Most of it's noise.

Except for this.

My boss expects a briefing,

pretty much now...

so that's all the head start

you're gonna get.

Thank you.

You're gonna have to hurry.

We have orders to shoot on sight.

Homecoming

One

One

Freight car

I have your breakfast.

I could smell it before I opened the door.

Side of bacon and black coffee.

Again.

I can make you something

different, if you like.

This is wonderful...

I will just put this on your...

It's okay, I can manage!

Heads up, Cap.

German Special Forces,

approaching from the south.

Understood.

Do you know me?

You're Steve.

I read about you in a museum.

They've set the perimeter.

I know you're nervous,

and you have plenty of reason to be.

But you're lying.

I wasn't in Vienna.

I don't do that any more.

They're entering the building.

Well, the people

who think you did are coming here now.

And they're not planning

on taking you alive.

That's smart.

Good strategy.

They're on the roof. I'm compromised.

This doesn't have to end in a fight, Buck.

- It always ends in a fight.

- Five seconds.

You pulled me from the river.

Why?

- I don't know.

- Three seconds.

Yes, you do.

Breach! Breach! Breach!

Buck, stop!

You're gonna kill someone.

I'm not gonna kill anyone.

Suspect has broken containment!

...he's headed down the east stairwell!

Come on, man.

Ahhh!

Sam, southwest rooftop.

Who the hell's the other guy?
