Hawkeye and Mockingbird are in New York and decide to pay a surprise visit to Captain America. Meanwhile, Steve Rogers is having an intense conversation with his girlfriend Bernie Rosenthal; she has decided to enroll in law school—in Madison, Wisconsin. Steve is upset that she is leaving, especially since she explains that she feels overshadowed by his dominant personality (not to mention his job) and needs to be by herself for a while. As they cuddle, they are interrupted by Clint and Bobbi. After an awkward first few minutes, the two couples go out on a double date….
Meanwhile at a Manhattan hotel, the giant armored Armadillo, formerly a villain but now a star on the Unlimited Class Wrestling circuit, arrives for a match. He is accompanied by his lovely wife Bonita who persuades him to stay home and rest while she goes out on the town with her bodyguard (or whatever) Ramon….
When Steve sees in the news that the Armadillo is in town, the two couples arrange to attend his match the following evening. The former villain wins his bout, and Steve dons his Cap outfit and heads backstage to wish his former foe well. There the huge wrestler explains that his wife has been cured of her illness and that she suggested he remain in his mutated form to earn money wrestling before being changed back to normal. Bonita arrives and Cap recognizes her as a woman he saw kissing another man outside. Cap feels awkward but doesn’t know what to say so he leaves. Later Bernie, Clint, and Bobbi, tell him he did the right thing….
The next day, as Steve and their friends Josh and Mike help Bernie pack for her move west, a report comes over the radio that Armadillo is on a rampage downtown. Cap heads to the scene to find the huge cuckold plowing through a SWAT team. Cap tries to talk the enraged Armadillo out of his mayhem but it is difficult protecting bystanders from the fallout while dodging the creature’s attacks. Armadillo begins climbing the Empire State Building, planning to jump off. Cap climbs up with him, trying to play marriage counselor at the same time. Hawkeye arrives on his jet cycle, distracting Cap long enough for the Armadillo to leap from the high perch. When Cap gets back to the ground, he finds the Armadillo has made a massive crater in the street—but is still alive. Cap calls an ambulance and tells the poor fool that things will get better.
