It ain't that hard, you'll get it. [ Maybe. He wonders how he copes with the futuristic appliances. ]

How're you keeping, buddy?

Bucky and I can't even change the channels on the television. The other day it was stuck on a cartoon with talking pink horses.

I'm okay. I'm kind of thinking about you. You all right?

Pink horses, huh? Y'sure Bucky-boy did't just wanna keep watching it?

I ain't bad. Getting the hang'a the place.

Positive. He had to go looking for someone to put it back on the food channel.

You guys sit and watch the food channel together? That's kind'a disappointing, I was imagining more action.

We don't actually sit and watch television much. I still think the radio is better.

We did watch Ride 'em Cowboy. Did you know you can watch whole movies from the cinema using this DVD gadget?

I hear you there, pal. Unless my face is on the screen, I ain't that interested.

[ DVD gadget? His tone carries a newly found interest. ] Didn't know that, but wouldn't mind finding out. What's a DVD?

So modest. I can't watch my movies more than once.

It's this silver flat round...well, it looks kind of like a sheet of paper but more solid. It goes in this machine and it plays movies on the television.

Hey, do they got them here?

Like a record?

I haven't exactly gone looking.

Yeah, but smaller and silver.

Got one I could play around with? [ Lying is optional, Steve, he can't be trusted. ]

Next time you come over.

And you that little pooch'a yours be there? 'Cause I think I might be in love.

I don't blame you, she's a heartbreaker.

You're telling me. How I heard, she's a bit'a table breaker too.

She likes to get underfoot.

Big guy like you tumbling down her way? Might'a learned her lesson.

[ Not that he's lonely or anything. ] So, uh, what'cha been up to?

She got out of the way pretty quick.

Nothing, want to get a coffee?

If you can spare the time? I'm all yours, Cap.

I let Bucky do the work. I'll even bring your new favorite dame.

Looks like the two'a are gonna be hanging out. Y'got anywhere in mind?

There's a big park called Xanadu, I'll meet you at the entrance.

Okay, Cap, see y'there.

[ He disconnects the call and heads straight out, the map something he's memorised even if he hasn't visited everywhere, and waits on a bench by the entrance. ]

[Crepe isn't pulling....until she sees Howard, that is. Then she yanks a little, meeting the immovable object that is Steve Rogers. He laughs and jogs up, and she attempts to climb up Howard's lap]

Bucky wasn't kidding. Hey, Howard.

[ The second the dog comes into sight, Howard pushes himself to perch on the end of the bench, leaning down to scoop her up while she attacks him with slobber. ]

He tell you I stopped by, huh? How's it going, Stevey boy?
