** Basically everyone is pissed off about Pleasant Hill, most especially the villains. One was willing to quit villainy and took solace in the belief of some public comeuppance, but after hearing there was a press conference for the rejuvenated Steve Rogers he attempted to assassinate him. He calls out Sam on not appearing to do anything either after publicly declaring himself more proactive.
