Easter Eggs You Missed In The Falcon And The Winter Soldier Episode 3

Episode 3 of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, "Power Broker," was a fight-filled good time, packed with plot and globetrotting galore. It also had its share of Easter eggs. Here are a few you may have missed.

In "Power Broker," we finally get to see Helmut Zemo, whose return has been looming since the series began. Knowing that the villain is the only way to help track down the origin of the new Super-Soldier serum, Bucky helps him break out of a high-security prison with ease. After getting the kinda-sorta approval from Sam, the three men are treated to a private plane ride across the globe.

It turns out that Zemo is rich — really rich — and there's a reason why. Finally, we hear this classic Marvel villain note that he is a baron, a title that's long been associated with Zemo in the comics, but never yet uttered in the MCU, until now. Zemo was a member of the Sokovian aristocracy, but that was all taken from him when Ultron decimated the country.

In the comics, the Zemos are actually of German descent. There have been 13 barons in total, with Helmut being the most recent. In 1973's Captain America #168, we learn that Helmut and his father were both disfigured by Adhesive X, the most powerful adhesive ever invented, and thus later donned masks to hide their faces. There's no instance of Adhesive X or any kind of disfigurement of Zemo in the MCU, so his mask-wearing is likely just an homage to the character and his father.
