Bar scene in this one again showing why Bucky makes a better bad guy also.
I think Rhodey is probably retired between losing the use of his legs and Tony’s death.
Did I miss this?!

Wasn’t he in the big battle at the end of endgame?

And he was standing at the funeral?

He lost the use of his legs in Civil War (was it?) he was fighting falcon and vision clipped him with his laser trying to disable falcon.

Tony gave him super-advanced leg braces to help him walk again I think

Yes. As seen in the Tony Stank scene with Stan Lee.

He was using artificial legs, but also still using the War Machine armour.

I think using him for investigation into a small terror cell in Europe would be seen as overkill. That’s what Captain America is for.

The new captain America sure, but the old one went toe to toe with thanos. He was pretty much overkill for everything.

Much of this episode I felt they were giving us reasons why Sam Wilson should be Captain America, and why he should not take the Super Soldier serum. A lot of good writing.
Best ending of any episode do far.

Yeah great ending this week.

Didn't really like the casting of the Wyatt Russell in this at the start but he does brilliant in this episode.

Also Zemo is fast becoming my fave character in this show.

As for the new Cap, camera phones are a bh aren’t they?

In Civil War his artificial legs were on the outside of his trousers. There was no sign of them in Falcon and the Winter Soldier, I guess technology had moved on.
