Captain America: The Winter Soldier Page #3

in service of his country.

That was a difficult winter.

A blizzard had trapped half

our battalion behind the German line.

Steve, Captain Rogers,

he fought his way

through a HYDRA blockade

that had pinned our allies

down for months.

He saved over 1,000 men.

Including the man who would...

Who would become my husband,

as it turned out.

Even after he died,

Steve was still changing my life.

You should be

proud of yourself, Peggy.

I have lived a life.

My only regret is that

you didn't get to live yours.

What is it?

For as long as I can remember,

I just wanted to do what was right.

I guess I'm not quite sure

what that is anymore.

And I thought I could throw

myself back in and follow orders.

Serve.

It's just not the same.

You're always so dramatic.

Look, you saved the world.

We rather mucked it up.

You didn't.

Knowing that you helped found

S.H.I.E.L.D. is half the reason I stay.

Hey.

The world has changed,

and none of us can go back.

All we can do is our best.

And sometimes the best that

we can do is to start over.

Steve.

Yeah?

You're alive.

You came back.

Yeah, but...

It's been so long.

So long.

Well, I couldn't

leave my best girl.

Not when she owes me a dance.

Secure office.

Open Lemurian Star's

satellite launch file.

Access denied.

Run decryption.

Decryption failed.

Director override.

Fury, Nicholas J.

Override denied. AH files sealed.

On whose authority?

Fury, Nicholas J.

World Security Council.

Confirmed.

If Nick Fury thinks

he can get his costumed thugs

and S.T.R.I.K.E. commandos to

mop up his mess, he's sadly mistaken.

This failure is unacceptable.

Considering this attack took place

one mile from my country's

sovereign waters,

it's a bit more than that.

I move for immediate hearing.

We don't need hearings,

we need action.

It's this Council's duty

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

A breach like this

raises serious questions.

Like how the hell

did a French pirate

manage to hijack a covert S.H.I.E.L.D.

vessel in broad daylight?

For the record, Councilman,

he's Algerian.

I can draw a map if it'd help.

I appreciate your wit,

Secretary Pierce.

But this Council takes things like

international piracy fairly seriously.

Really? I don't.

I don't care about one boat,

I care about the fleet.

If this Council is going

to fall to rancor

every time someone pushes us

on the playing field,

maybe we need someone

to oversee US.

Mr. Secretary, nobody

is suggesting...

Excuse me.

More trouble, Mr. Secretary?

Depends on your definition.

I work 40 floors away and it takes

a hijacking for you to visit?

A nuclear war would do it, too.

You busy in there?

Nothing some earmarks can't fix.
