It is strange, she thinks, as they return home, relieving the babysitter and ensuring none of the safe boxes have been found or tampered with. All her life, Melina has been taught the essential value of precision. Lack of precision meant misunderstanding; misunderstandings created mistakes; mistakes lead to failure.
Yet here they are, a widow and the Red Guardian, capable of laughing at each other, at themselves to an extent, over one such instance; a misunderstanding that has led not to failure, but to clarification. Camaraderie, even.
"Good night. Try to resist murdering me in my sleep," Alexei says to her before turning out the light. A joke, incredibly enough.
"I would never." She rolls her eyes, but not before she drops a mocking little kiss on his forehead, smiles sweetly. "Easier to poison your coffee, my darling." The three years Melina spends with Alexei, Natasha, and Yelena. This is heartbreaking and beautifully done.

SHIELD has fallen and the Winter Soldier is in the wind, and far more formidable than anybody thought.
Not only is he staying hidden from all the world's intelligence agencies (how), but he's doing so while modeling for fashion magazines (what), posting videos about himself (why), gaining an internet following that absolutely includes Clint (and to his regret, Sam), and punching a whole lot of Nazis (in the face. with bullets).
Steve is absolutely supportive, much to everyone else’s concern. HILARIOUS.
