(first lines; Sam Wilson is jogging around Washington, D.C. when Steve quickly catches up to him and runs past him.)

Steve Rogers: On your left.

(as Sam continues to jog Steve comes around again quickly after doing another lap.)

Steve Rogers: On your left.

Sam Wilson: Uh-huh, on my left. Got it.

(as Sam is still jogging Steve comes around again from behind him from another lap.)

Sam Wilson: Don't say it! Don't you say it!

Steve Rogers: On your left!

Sam Wilson: Come on!

(Sam gets angry and tries to catch up to him but only after a few seconds he's unable to carry on and stops to rest.)

(as Sam is resting catching his breath sitting by a tree Steve walks over to him.)

Steve Rogers: Need a medic?

(Sam laughs.)

Sam Wilson: I need a new set of lungs. Dude, you just ran like 13 miles in 30 minutes.

Steve Rogers: I guess I got a late start.

Sam Wilson: Oh, really? You should be ashamed of yourself. You should take another lap.

(He hesitates for a moment before saying sarcastically.)

Sam Wilson: Did you just take it? I assumed you just took it.

Steve Rogers: What unit you with?

Sam Wilson: 58, Pararescue. But now I'm working down at the VA.

(Sam lifts hand to shake)

Sam Wilson: Sam Wilson.

(Steve gives Sam a hand to rise.)

Steve Rogers: Steve Rogers.

Sam Wilson: Yeah I kind of put that together. Must have freaked you out coming home after the whole defrosting thing.

Steve Rogers: It takes some getting used to. It's good to meet you, Sam.

(as Steve turns to leave.)

Sam Wilson: It's your bed, right?

Steve Rogers: What's that?

Sam Wilson: Your bed, it's too soft. When I was over there I'd sleep on the ground and use rock for pillows, like a caveman. Now I'm home, lying in my bed, and it's like...

Steve Rogers: Lying on a marshmallow. Feel like I'm gonna sink right to the floor.

(Sam smiles and nods his head.)

Steve Rogers: How long?

Sam Wilson: Two tours.

(Awkward silence)

Sam Wilson: You must miss the good old days, huh?

Steve Rogers: Well, things aren't so bad. Food's a lot better, we used to boil everything. No polio is good. Internet, so helpful. I've been reading that a lot trying to catch up.

(Sam looks up to think and raises finger)

Sam Wilson: Marvin Gaye, 1972, "Trouble Man" soundtrack. Everything you've missed jammed into one album.
