The Falcon and The Winter Soldier: 5 best moments from “Truth”
By Liam Clark
2. Sam training to be Captain America
After the thought-provoking conversations he has with Isaiah Bradley, Sarah Wilson and Bucky Barnes, Sam realizes just how important it is for him to take up the role of Captain America. With the Flag Smashers currently running rampant and the actions of John Walker sparking panic and outrage across the world, Sam looks to step up and become a symbol of hope like Steve Rogers.
This results in the Avenger training intensely to become Captain America after he determines where the Flag Smashers are likely going to attack next. The montage is handled perfectly, displaying Sam’s development into the physical shape needed for the role and his struggles with learning the physics of the shield. This montage is executed quickly, but it still manages to showcase the depth and work ethic he put into preparing himself to undertake his next mission and first mission as Captain America.
The scene also ends with a tease as to what is inside the gift from Wakanda – and we all know that the reveal is definitely coming in the next episode. Fingers crossed Sam is about to shine with an amazing Captain America suit and wings.
