Not sure what you are referring to, but there are several currently serving US Senators who are experienced pilots. The chances aren't that bad. [Reply]

It was way too obvious, IMO, which leads me to believe that it was a Skrull, especially considering that the cast for Secret Invasion is absolutely loaded with talent and should have a much bigger impact on the MCU than TFATWS.
If it wasn't a Skrull, it makes zero sense. Like I had mentioned earlier, this is a person who's the niece of the founder of SHIELD, who put her life on the line for Captain America and the country, yet the government disavows the character completely?
Like most of the series, it just made no sense. I'm seriously shocked that Kevin Feige allowed this absolute nonsense to air AND double down with the announced of Captain America 4, which is definitely a Disney+ watch for me and not a theatrical, especially considering I basically had to beg my kids to watch the series with me after Episode 1.

She's certainly a strange character to add to the overall Captain America lore.
First, she's secretly spying on Cap by pretending to be his neighbor and apparently at the behest of none other than Peggy Carter herself, Cap's lifelong love.
Then, after the reveal, Cap and Sharon make out, which was "overdue". Cap decided to stay back in 1945 or whatever and have a life with Peggy Carter, despite the fact he had the hots for her niece and would have given her the Captain's Stabbin' had there been more time.
Overall, she's just a weird character to include in the MCU. [Reply]

That was one of those storylines of the MCU that got completely abandoned, much like the Black Widow-Hulk relationship.
They so easily could have added resolution to the latter storyline in Endgame (especially after referencing it in IW), but just... didn't? [Reply]

I think this was mostly a vestigial organ from the comics. Sharon was Cap's classic love interest in the comics* and so that was shoehorned in even though it didn't really make sense for the MCU.
*And yes, more so than Peggy. Peggy wasn't actually in the comics in the 40s, she was added via retcon in the 60s as part of Sharon's backstory. Sharon and Peggy actually both make their first appearance in the same issue. [Reply]
