[Regarding his new prosthetic leg] I think I'm a fan of the 21st century.
Yeah, don't get your hopes up. We make a mean prosthetic, but, uh, fascism is back.
You mean the thing I helped wipe out 10 years ago?
Yeah. The past won't leave us alone.
Yeah, Mack caught me up. You know, you said her name to me when Malick was doing a number on you. "Jiaying."
Hydra did the same thing to her. They cut her up, they took her power, in my past and in her future. She can heal herself, live a long time.
Malick thought that's what I could do. He's after the real thing now.
Did Mack say anything about what happened with her and I? Yeah, well, things got really bad, and it's a long story. But it came to an end.
Maybe now's your chance to experience what she was like before that. You should talk to her.
No, I shouldn't. She can't know who I am.
Why not?
Because of the timeline...
The timeline is screwed. Pardon my French. And look who you're talking to: a guy who served under "I Like Ike" and was supposed to be dead by now.
Ike?
Point is, you got a rare opportunity here. I got a list of people long gone by now I'd do anything to have one last stolen moment with. Regardless of what space-time has to say about it.
