I think "just a little girl" is too young to be Natasha - if she were 8 in the 1940s, she wouldn't be ScarJo's age in the present day.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

That's what the Red Room *wants* you to think.

Or maybe she just looks really good for someone in their 80s!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I can't figure out how Bucky could have trained Natasha. How is he still (a) alive and (b) young? Cryosleep in between missions, okay, but then he couldn't have done anything else.

Didn't Bucky get hit with a version of the super soldier serum?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Cryosleep in between missions, okay, but then he couldn't have done anything else.
This is the original version of Bucky-as-Winter-Soldier, as conceived by Brubaker. Cryosleep, wake up and kill, cryosleep, wake up and kill...that was all he did. Not sure when the training stuff would have fit in.
I'd agree that Dottie could be from the Red Room, but I don't think she's Natasha. I do wonder whether she's good or bad or in between, though. I liked that they set that guy up to be a new scary villain and then immediately offed him as a way to show how badass Dottie actually is.

I'm just tickled at Stan Lee's cameo.

When that third newspaper came down I was convinced it was going to be one of the SSR guys. I squealed when I saw it was Stan the Man.

Interesting! Intrigued about Dottie.
I was thinking Winter Soldier when Mueller was talking about all the massacred Russians.
Jarvis continues to charm me. I just love that he's not the Butler With Secret Ninja Skilz!.
What was the message on the typewriter?!!!1!

Also, one thing that I find refreshing in these four episodes is that the bad guy, so far, is simply the bad guy of the week, and not built up. There is no mustache-swirling mystery figure looming over the proceedings. I love an arc, but now that I see the lack of it, I have not really enjoyed The Big Bad of a show's season, at least when it's laid in as such. Maybe because it's too omniscient. That, if we were the characters in the story, we wouldn't know about some dude chuckling in the shadows. And also can lead to painting into corners, maybe.
Anyhow. I like that each new dude is winding up quite dead, no matter that he appeared in a major motion picture once or so.
