   Summary

   The particulars of Bucky’s pardon get put to a hypothetical. Bucky can keep it hypothetical by doing a little favor, cleaning up a few messes. By chasing some old ghosts through the American darkness. Easy enough. Right?

   Bucky travels ten thousand miles searching for redemption. Sam travels ten thousand miles searching for Bucky. Neither of them seem to be able to find what they’re looking for.
