Aletheia's

But the part I remember most fondly is when Sam and Bucky worked on the boat, haha.
Same here! I expected it before watching and, well, confirmed. I was bummed it's so short. :D Or maybe it was good so it went too fast, compared to awful pieces like the therapy. XD

Indeed, whatever was missing there, it did feel like they changed the course somewhere midway, and the result derailed and crashed...

you're kind of dismissing the race relations aspect as American nonsense
No, I'm doing it deliberately. I see what they try to do there, I'm just done with pretending it's a quality mark in a movie/show/whatever. American media do anti-racism in the way that turns it into pro-racism. Because this, effectively, is introducing a character whose apparently only importance is drawn from his color, and beyond that nobody cares enough to give him anything but second-hand parts.
I could explain more. Maybe I should. Younger me might try. But as I say, I'm done. American media push shit I fundamentally disagree with and engaging in this is endorsing it, in a way. So I dismiss. I have elected to ignore their stupid-ass gimmick message.
