When Captain America is kidnapped by Red Skull, Iron Man must reassemble the Avengers for a rescue mission.
----
* AsYouKnow: The series opens with Tony and JARVIS discussing the events that led to the disbandment of the Avengers.
* BrickJoke: Falcon is introduced skipping S.H.I.E.L.D training to join the reformed Avengers. Halfway through the episode, Nick Fury calls to tell him he’s fired.
* {{Expy}}: Defied. Despite Tony requesting Sam Wilson wear the War Machine Armor like James “Rhodes” Rhodes did in the comics, he instead chooses the Falcon suit.
* FreakyFridayFlip: Red Skull’s scheme is to prolong his death by transferring his mind into Captain America’s body.
* TheHeroDies: Tony is the POVCharacter for the episode, and it ends on Red Skull stealing his Iron Man suit and the life-preserving Arc Reactor that powers it, leaving Tony dead.
* MythologyGag: Red Skull taking over Cap’s body calls to mind an arc in the comics where he had plastic surgery to resemble Steve Rogers.
