Another series of explosions rocks the factory. He clings grimly to the railing as the metal under their feet shudders, waiting it through.

It doesn't seem to bother Steve, who's squared off to confront the Nazi in the middle of the bridge. He's too far away to hear what they're saying, so Bucky keeps a weather eye on the doctor, as much as he can, and watches.

Steve throws the first punch; the Nazi rocks back a step, slams his fist against that flag-painted shield Steve's been carrying, and then the fight's on in earnest.

Bucky doesn't have the chance to figure out what he can do to help, though; Steve kicks the arrogant S.O.B. backward several feet, and the doctor scurries forward and slaps a lever in panic. The bridge splits in the middle and begins to draw back on each side. He does what he can to help it, pulling at the railing as it slides along, bringing Steve back to precarious safety.

The Nazi shouts something else -- "I was his greatest success!" -- and begins to claw at his own face. Standing beside Steve, Bucky stares in horror as the man peels off his own skin, revealing the hideous visage beneath.


Maddened eyes glare at them from a blood-red skull, and Bucky swallows hard.


"You don't have one of those, do you?"
