The recently discharged Cap resumes his public school teaching job and administers corporal punishment to a kid named Snipe. Snipe empties his pockets and reveals a bottle of perfume. The other kids make fun of him but it turns out crooks are using kids to sell perfume bottles that act as timed incendiary grenades in order to impersonate firemen and rob buildings. Cap and Bucky put a stop to this scheme with the help of Snipe. The first 2.75 pages (after the splash page) are a retelling of Captain America's origin and how Bucky discovered his secret identity.
