The finale officially declares Sam Wilson as Captain America, but he tries to convince Karli that death won’t change the world. John Walker still wants revenge against her, and fans find out who’s the Power Broker (and it’s who what some suspected).

Amalia tries to save Mary from Maladie, but there’s a shocking connection…and a difficult decision. Also, Lavinia “exhibits” the Touched to ease fears, but she also shows her true colors, driving her brother to dark places.

Who gets to be a hero? That’s the real question asked this week John Walker thinks he should still be a hero after last week’s tragedy, and he’ll do anything to keep that. A mysterious contessa may give him an option.
Meanwhile, Sam decides if he wants to use the shield Steve Rogers gave him, he should. He and Bucky are still worried about what Karli and the Flag Smashers will do next.
