Synopsis for "The Coming of... The Swordsman!"
Meanwhile, in Nick Fury's office in Washington D.C., |Hydra agents find a letter from Captain America, explaining how Captain America wanted to work for S.H.I.E.L.D. They discard it as trash. A mobster finds it and gives it to the Swordsman.
A trap is laid for Captain America. He leaves the Mansion, thinking he is going to meet with Nick Fury. Hawkeye finds out about the plan and gathers the other Avengers to help him.
Captain America battles the Swordsman and gets captured before the others can arrive to help.
