    Summary

    “Steve told me you were quite the ladies’ man back in the day.”

    “Back in the day?” said Bucky, huffing a small laugh. “You mean 1943?”

    “Sure. Told me about all the double dates you’d set up for them. He said half the time he was just an excuse so that you could take out two girls.”

    “Steve said that? Geeze.” Bucky shook his head. “So ungrateful. Kid was like the hardest person to set up with a date.”

    “‘Cause of the skinny thing?”

    “No, the moral righteousness thing,” Bucky nodded at Sam. “Maybe you know something about that.”

    How Sam figures out that Bucky’s probably into him, which is a problem because Sam loves Bucky but it’s not like he’s IN love with Bucky, right? A remix on the last half of episode 6, Rated T for Tender Kisses.

    Summary

    As he steps inside the spaceship, Sam expects to find Bucky bruised, injured, maybe even unconscious. What he isn’t expecting is for Bucky to look up and beam when Sam walks in, like he’s happy to see him.

    “Hey, Sam,” Bucky says in the cheeriest voice Sam’s ever heard.

    Sam blinks.

    “Yeah, so, he’s been injected with truth serum.”

    Summary

    “What can you tell me about how you got to know the Winter Soldier?”

    Wilson chuckles. “The first time I met Buck—Sergeant Barnes—he ripped the steering wheel out of the car I was driving on the freeway. He got on the roof, punched through the windshield, pulled the steering wheel off. Just like that.” He mimes with his hands as he describes it.

    This doesn’t sound like an auspicious beginning to me, but Wilson is laughing.
