The first episode of The Falcon And The Winter Soldier is here and while it gets straight to the action unlike WandaVision, it still comes with it's own twists and turns.
The show picks up four months after the events of Avengers: Endgame, with Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie) and Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan) trying to make sense of this new world that's happening 5 years after "the blip." With billions of people back and Steve Rogers gone, life for both of them looks different.
Bucky's trying to make amends and deal with the after effects of his time as the Winter Soldier. Even though his actions during that time aren't his fault, he still blames himself. Then we have Sam who even though he was given Captain America's shield by Steve's decides to "give it back" by putting it in Steve Roger's section of the Smithsonian only for the government to introduce a "new Captain America."
While we probably have a few episodes to go before we really know what's going on. Here are some of my memes and reaction gifs to Episode 1:
1. Sam hitting us with this iconic line from Black moms everywhere
2. When someone doesn't stay at least 6 feet from me in a pandemic
3. Me when I walk up to a car and realize it's not my Uber
4. This character development
5. Steve is still on Sam's left
6. Me after seeing that great value Captain America
7. If Sam can't get the shield back then I know someone who will
8. No Mephisto theories this time (for now...jk...maybe)
