Captain America: The Winter Soldier Page #3

Yeah? What's it cost?

A cup of coffee?

Thank you, but

I already have a

load in downstairs,

and you really don't want

my scrubs in your machine.

I just finished a rotation

in the infectious disease ward, so...

Well, I'll keep my distance.

Hopefully, not too far.

And I think you left

your stereo on.

Right. Thank you.

Yeah.

I don't remember giving you a key.

You really think I'd need one?

My wife kicked me out.

I didn't know you were married.

A lot of things you

don't know about me.

I know, Nick. That's the problem.

I'm sorry to have to do this,

but I had no place else to crash.

Who else knows about your wife?

Just...

My friends.

Is that what we are?

That's up to you.

Don't trust anyone.

Captain Rogers?

Captain,

I'm Agent 13 of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Special Service.

Kate?

I'm assigned to protect you.

On whose order?

His.

Foxtrot is down, he's unresponsive.

I need EMTs.

Do we have a 20 on the shooter?

Tell him I'm in pursuit.

Is he gonna make it?

I don't know.

Tell me about the shooter.

He's fast. Strong.

Had a metal arm.

Ballistics?

Three slugs, no rifling.

Completely untraceable.

Soviet-made.

Yeah.

He's in V-tach.

- Crash cart coming in.

- Nurse, help me with the drape.

- BP's dropping.

- Defibrillator!

I want you to charge him at 100.

Don't do this to me, Nick.

Stand back.

Three, two,

one. Clear.

- Pulse?

- No pulse.

Okay, 200, please.

Stand back!

Three, two, one. Clear!

Get me epinephrine!

Pulse?

Negative.

Don't do this to me, Nick.

Don't do this to me.

What's the time?

1:
03, Doctor.

Time of death, 1:03 a.m.

I need to take him.

Natasha.

Natasha!

Why was Fury in your apartment?

I don't know.

Cap, they want you

back at S.H.I.E.L.D.

Yeah, give me a second.

They want you now.

Okay.

You're a terrible liar.

S.T.R.I.K.E. team,

escort Captain Rogers

back to S.H.I.E.L.D.

immediately for questioning.

I told him.

- Let's go.

- Yeah.

S.T.R.I.K.E., move it out.

Captain Rogers.

Neighbor.

Captain.

I'm Alexander Pierce.

Sir, it's an honor.

The honor's mine, Captain.

My father served in the 101st.

Come on in.

That photo was taken

five years after Nick and I met,

when I was at State Department

in Bogota.

E.L.N. rebels took the embassy,

and security got me out,

but the rebels took hostages.

Nick was Deputy Chief

of the S.H.I.E.L.D. station there,

and he comes to me with a plan.

He wants to storm the building

through the sewers.

I said, "No, we'll negotiate."

Turned out, the E.L.N. didn't negotiate,

so they put out a kill order.

They stormed the basement,

and what do they find?

They find it empty.

Nick had ignored my direct order,

and carried out an unauthorized

military operation on foreign soil,

and saved the lives of

a dozen political officers,

including my daughter.

So you gave him a promotion.

I've never had any

cause to regret it.

Captain, why was Nick

in your apartment last night?

I don't know.

Did you know it was bugged?

I did, because Nick told me.

Did he tell you

he was the one who bugged it?

I want you to see something.

Who hired you, Batroc?

Is that live?

Yeah, they picked him up last night

in a not-so-safe house in Algiers.

Are you saying he's a suspect?

Assassination isn't Batroc's line.

No, no. It's more

complicated than that.

Batroc was hired anonymously

to attack the Lemurian Star.

And he was contacted by email

and paid by wire transfer,

and then the money was run

through 17 fictitious accounts.

The last one going to

a holding company

that was registered

to a Jacob Veech.

Am I supposed to know who that is?

Not likely. Veech

died six years ago.

His last address was

1435 Elmhurst Drive.

When I first met Nick,

his mother lived at 1437.

Are you saying

Fury hired the pirates? Why?

The prevailing theory

was that the hijacking was

a cover for the acquisition

and sale of classified

intelligence.

The sale went sour

and that led to Nick's death.

If you really knew Nick Fury,

you'd know that's not true.

Why do you think we're talking?

See, I took a seat on the Council

not because I wanted to,

but because Nick asked me to,

because we were both realists.

We knew that, despite all the diplomacy

and the handshaking and the rhetoric,

to build a really better world

sometimes means having

to tear the old one down.

And that makes enemies.

Those people that call you dirty

because you got the guts

to stick your hands in the mud

and try to build something better.

And the idea that those people

could be happy today

makes me really, really angry.

Captain, you were the last

one to see Nick alive.

I don't think that's an accident.

And I don't think you do, either.

So, I'm gonna ask again.

Why was he there?

He told me not to trust anyone.

I wonder if that included him.

I'm sorry.

Those were his last words.

Excuse me.

Captain,

somebody murdered my friend

and I'm gonna find out why.

Anyone gets in my way,

they're gonna regret it.

Anyone.

Understood.

Operations Control.

Confirmed.

Keep all S.T.R.I.K.E.

personnel on site.

- Understood.

- Yes, sir.

- Forensics.

- Confirmed.

Cap.

Rumlow.

Evidence Response found some fibers

on the roof they want us to see.

You want me to get

the tac team ready?

No, let's wait and see

what it is first.

Right.

What's the status so far?

- Administrations level.

- Confirmed.

Excuse me.

I'm sorry about

what happened with Fury.

It's messed up, what

happened to him.

Thank you.

Records.

Confirmed.

Before we get started,

does anyone want to get out?

Mobilize S.T.R.I.K.E.

units, 25th floor.

Whoa, big guy.-

I just want you to know, Cap,

this isn't personal!

It kind of feels personal.

Drop the shield

and put your hands in the air!

Give it up, Rogers!

Get that door open!

You have nowhere to go!

Are you kidding me?

He's headed for the garage.

Lock down the bridge.

Stand down, Captain Rogers.

Stand down.

Repeat, stand down.

Eyes here.

Whatever your op is, bury it.

This is Level One.

Contact DOT.

All traffic lights in

the district go red.

Shut all runways at BWI,

IAD and Reagan.

All security cameras in the city

go through this monitor right here.

Scan all open sources,

phones, computers,

PDAs. Whatever.

If someone tweets about this

guy, I want to know about it.

With all due respect,

if S.H.I.E.L.D. is conducting

a manhunt for Captain America

we deserve to know why.

Because he lied to us.

Captain Rogers has information

regarding the death of Director Fury.

He refused to share it.

As difficult as this is to accept,

Captain America is a fugitive

from S.H.I.E.L.D.

- Where is it?

- Safe.

- Do better.

- Where did you get it?

Why would I tell you?

Fury gave it to you. Why?

- What's on it?

- I don't know.

Stop lying-

I only act like

I know everything, Rogers.

I bet you knew Fury hired

the pirates, didn't you?

Well, it makes sense. The ship was

dirty, Fury needed a way in, so do you.

I'm not gonna ask you again.
