The Falcon And The Winter Soldier Episode 3 Ending Explained

Another week brings us another action-packed episode of the MCU's newest television show. Let's take a look at where The Falcon and the Winter Soldier leaves us at the end of its third episode.

Shortly after "Power Broker" opens, we see just how far Bucky is willing to go to pursue the Flag Smashers and find the Super Soldier Serum: he's willing to break his old nemesis, Baron Zemo, out of prison, much to Sam's surprise and disapproval. Not only that, but we learn quite a bit more about Zemo than we ever had before. Not only does he come from an incredibly wealthy family, but, just like in the Marvel comics, he's also a baron, a detail fans have been wondering about since his MCU introduction in 2014.

Additionally, fans get the first look at Zemo's famous purple mask when he dons it at the end of the trio's trip to Madripoor. Located in Southeast Asia, Madripoor is a recognizable locale from the pages of Marvel Comics, often associated with the X-Men — namely Wolverine.

Zemo, Sam, and Bucky visit the country to get information from Selby, one of Zemo's underworld contacts. The nation is characterized as a lawless, cutthroat area full of crime, thieves, and otherwise sketchy characters. This is why the trio has to play their parts carefully, with Sam taking on the identity of another Marvel comics character, Smiling Tiger. Bucky, meanwhile, slips back into his Winter Soldier alias acting as Zemo's mind-controlled muscle.

Their cover is eventually blown when Sam is forced to take a phone call from his sister Sarah and put it on speaker so the entire room can hear. Sarah calls him by his real name, prompting Selby to order her men to attack. But before her crew can act, someone from outside fires a bullet that kills Selby instead — sending Sam, Bucky, and Zemo on the run through the streets of Madripoor with a bounty on their heads.
