[Cleveland.][Vasily Karpov sits, eating at the table in a cluttered house. He hears the sound of something crashing outside and peers through drawn blinds. Outside, Helmut Zemo stands by his car, the front end crumpled against Karpov's car.]

Helmut Zemo: Hello? Is this your car out front?[Zemo comes to the door.]

Helmut Zemo: I jumped the curb.[Karpov eyes his gun nearby.]

"That man seems like he's up to no good" Molly points out, the Avengers nod agreeing with the women having knowing what he can do

Helmut Zemo: Maybe we could take care of it ourselves. If you wanna call the cops, tha--that's okay too, I guess.

Vasily Karpov: No. No cops.

Helmut Zemo: Thank you.[Karpov slides a heavy duty lock and opens the door. Zemo punches him.][Zemo is using a sledgehammer to smash a hole in the wall. He retrieves a large box from inside the hole and tips the contents onto a table. Karpov is hanging upside down, tied to pipes in his basement. There are various documents and the red book with the star on the cover. He holds the red book for a moment then opens a file. Inside is a photo of Karpov in his military uniform and beret.]

The students are scared of what's happening and the younger ones look away from the screen

Helmut Zemo: You have kept your looks, Colonel. Congratulations.[Karpov's head is in a sink, which is filling with water.]

Helmut Zemo: "Mission report: December 16, 1991."

Vasily Karpov: Who are you?

Helmut Zemo: My name is Zemo. I will repeat my question. Mission report. December 16, 1991.

Vasily Karpov: How did you find me?

Helmut Zemo: When SHIELD fell, Black Widow released HYDRA files to the public. Millions of pages much of it encrypted, not easy to decipher. But . . . I have experience. And patience. A man can do anything if he has those.

Vasily Karpov: What do you want?

Helmut Zemo: Mission report. December 16. 1991.

Vasily Karpov: Go . . . to . . . hell.[Zemo goes to lean on the sink as water continues to flow into it. He turns off the tap and studies Karpov's upside down face.]

Helmut Zemo: HYDRA deserves its place on the ash heap. So your death would not bother me. But I'd have to use this book . . . and other bloodier methods to find what I need. I don't look forward to that. You'd only be dying for . . . your pride.[Zemo stares at Karpov then nods resignedly. He turns the tap back on. The water is up to Karpov's eyes. Zemo watches the water level rise.]

Vasily Karpov: Hail HYDRA.[Holding the red book Zemo walks away. Karpov twitches and struggles in his bindings.][The Avengers are gathered at HQ. Steve is sitting, studying the Accords, while Rhodey and Sam argue behind him.]

"That's disgusting" Ron yells startling everyone 

"Shut up Ronald!" Hermonie smacks the back of his head 

James Rhodes: Secretary Ross has a Congressional Medal of Honor, which is one more than you have.

Sam Wilson: So let's say we agree to this thing. How long is it gonna be before they LoJack us like a bunch of common criminals?

James Rhodes: A 117 countries want to sign this. 117, Sam, and you're just like, "No, that's cool. We got it. "

Sam Wilson: How long are you going to play both sides?
