UP IN SNOWY MOUNTIANS OF GERMANY

Steve, Bucky and Rose stand at the edge of the ledge, overlooking the terrain and some railroad tracks. The Howling Commandos work behind them, a zip line set up over their heads.

"Remember when I made you ride the Cyclone on Coney Island?" Bucky recalls, looking down from the ledge.

"Yeah and I threw up," Steve remembers, his helmet in his hands.

"This isn't payback is it?" Bucky asks, glancing over to Steve over Rose's head

"Now why would I do that?" Steve asks Bucky, gazing up to the zip line, a small smile crossing his lips.

Rose giggles, drawing the two mens attention to her. "If that does happen, I'm going to be so happy."

"Now, now your frozen highness," Bucky chuckles, gazing down at the woman, "don't be getting any funny ideas."

Gabe calls out holding a receiver to his ear, "you were right. Doctor Zola is on the train. Hydra dispatcher gave him permission to open the throttle. Wherever they're going they need him, they must need him bad."

Jack looks over the railroad tracks in the distance through his binoculars, "and lets get moving because they're moving like the devil."

Putting his helmet on, Steve and Bucky turn around grabbing the handle bars for the zip line. "Alright we got about a ten second window. You miss that window," Steve passes a handle bar to Rose, allowing her to clip it to the zipline.

"You miss it and we're bugs on a windshield," Rose finishes saying.

Jack calls out to them, softly warning, "mind the gap."

"Gotta get moving, bugs," Dum Dum shouts encouragingly, patting Rose's shoulder.

"Maintenant. (now)" Jacques shouts, Rose leaning forward and gliding down the zipline.

Steve, Bucky and Gabe follow behind her, the train passing by allowing them to land on the train. Crouching closer to the train, Steve Bucky and Rose walk further down the train, Gabe stopping beside them and keeping an eye out. Climbing down the ladder, Rose enters the train with Steve and Bucky right behind her. Turning back to the door Bucky heaves it closed, before joining his two friends.
