Captain America/Steve Rogers (Chris Evans)’s Timeline and Summary
- In the Avengers' attack Baron von Strucker's HQ in Sokovia, Captain America zooms through the snow on a retro-looking motorcycle, mowing down hapless Hydra soldiers.
- After breaking into Strucker's lab, Cap confronts the bad guy in chief—but is zapped from behind by Wanda Maximoff.
- He quickly recovers and puts Strucker down with a well-placed kick to the chops.
- Back at Avengers' HQ, Cap is enjoying himself at the victory party—until Ultron shows up, that is. He uses his shield to smash and bash some of Ultron's Iron Legion bots.
- Captain America travels with the rest of the Avengers to a ship salvage yard off the African coast. There he and his team confront Ultron as the bad bot tries to buy some vibranium.
- In the middle of the ruckus, Cap is zapped (in the brain) by Wanda Maximoff.
- He finds himself transported to a World War II-era G.I. dance, only some of the men are bleeding from gunshots and others are straight up punching each other's lights out.
- His old (as in long-dead) flame Peggy Carter asks him to dance. Weird.
- Eventually, Cap snaps out of it. He winds up in a daze, being transported on the Avengers' Quinjet back to Hawkeye's house in the country.
- While there, the Captain starts splitting wood with Tony Stark. That's not a metaphor—these two are actually chopping logs together. Call it superhero bonding time.
- Only, they aren't bonding. Cap argues with Tony, convinced that Ultron was a bad idea from the start. He doesn't share Stark's enthusiasm for a force powerful enough to pre-emptively stop a war. It can only lead to innocents' death, in his view.
- Once the Avengers hatch a new plan of attack, Cap finds himself in Seoul, South Korea, jumping off a highway overpass onto an eighteen-wheeler that's hauling Ultron and his new android body.
- He fights to retrieve the cradle containing Ultron's android and winds up going toe-to-toe (does Ultron have toes?) with the bad guy on one of the city's commuter trains.
- Ultron escapes, and Cap finds himself going off the rails on a crazy train (sorry). Luckily, the Maximoff twins show up just in time to put the brakes on everything and shove the innocent civilians out of the way.
- Back at Avengers headquarters, Captain America and his new pals the Maximoffs bust into Tony Stark and Bruce Banner's science party. They want to stop Tony and Bruce from uploading J.A.R.V.I.S. into Ultron's vibranium android shell. A brief tussle ensues: shields get thrown, repulsor rays get fired, but then Thor crashes the party and brings the android to life.
- After a brief, but tense, stand-off, Cap agrees to have the new J.A.R.V.I.S. android on his team. He hatches a plan to destroy Ultron, free Black Widow, and, most of all, keep the citizens of Sokovia safe from harm.
- After punching, kicking, slamming, and shield-frisbee'ing a whole mess of Ultron's Iron Legion bots, Captain America joins his teammates in the church in central Sokovia. He works with them to prevent the bots from activating the vibranium core that will send the floating city-island crashing into Earth.
- Once Ultron runs away, Captain American jumps onto the Helicarrier at the last possible minute before Iron Man and Thor destroy the floating island.
- We next see Cap at the new Avengers headquarters in upstate New York. He's "home" he tells Tony Stark.
- His next mission? Working with Black Widow to train the new Avengers: War Machine, Falcon, Vision (the J.A.R.V.I.S. android), and the Scarlet Witch (Wanda Maximoff). They're not a team yet, in his view.
- Cap calls these new Avengers to—well, do something (we're gonna go out on a limb and say "assemble")—but the pushy film credits start to roll, cutting him off. End of flick.
