Yeah, we saw as of Infinity War Stark had functional nanotech armor, I bet Rhodey has some sort of malleable lower body brace/exoskeleton that's form-fitting enough to be unnoticeable under clothes.

I forgot about Rhodey 's injuries as well.

I kept thinking Torres was going to die. I liked most of the opening action but it went on too long.

It feels like TFATWS has too many moving parts.

I'm really liking the character stuff and am lukewarm about the action. Started the second ep thinking, "Oh no, don't make me like him... okay, so we're being sympathetic and nuanced, fine" and then hated him again by the end of the episode. Sticking true to the Marvel theme of "enhancements only matter when we want them to," Walker and Battlestar did at least as well in the fight on the trucks as Sam and Bucky. I have nothing against Erin Kellyman but I find it super weird that her character story so far is basically the same as in Solo. Continue to be very confused about what is and isn't public knowledge. Confused by the implication that Zemo is the best source for Hydra knowledge. Didn't really think he deserved the full operatic buildup.

Anyway, I'm loving this so far, and I even love that I have so many things to complain about.

My main reaction to the current Falcon WS episode was...this feels a lot like how reluctant duo to lovers fanfic starts .

I'm thinking I'm kind of on board with the bad guys so far. Their motto one people, one world sounds okay to me. And who were the people who showed up at the airfield and immediately started shooting? They seem bad.

I would also like to know, if Bucky and Sam are free agents, who is paying for their travel and equipment? Hell, who is paying for Bucky's therapy?

I do appreciate the way the show is being very forthright about the racism in American society, but I will continue to be worried about how it's basically still very pro-military.

Yeah, I can't tell if the show wants us to be on the side of the red hand group or not.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

And who were the people who showed up... (spoiler font)
When the scene first started, the guy said it was The Power Broker. That character is in the comics as well... and I'm pretty sure that he was the one that texted Karli when the Flag Smashers were settling into their hideaway.

The Isaiah Bradley stuff was heartbreaking and infuriating, and I think pretty important.

" One People, One World " sounds good, but I don't quite understand how they're going to fulfill their mission statement of bringing the world back to how it was during the Blip. I just don't see their vision board clearly here. The motto and the fact they're trying to get vaccines to communities in need are good things, but the Blip love seems to point to a half-extinction event in the plans.

Anyway, I really liked both episodes and I'm digging the show.
