In case the hot potato sequence isn’t ringing any bells for you, Eric Leven is talking about the action-packed opening of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier’s first episode, which saw Sam Wilson rescuing Air Force Captain Vassant from a plane that’d been hijacked by the terrorist group LAF, led by fellow Captain America: The Winter Soldier alum Georges Batroc.
As such, we got takedowns like the parachute moment that Leven enjoyed so much.
While it would have been easy enough for Sam to gun down the terrorists, Eric Leven and those bringing this sequence to decided to ditch the firearms in favor of our winged hero dispatching opponents more creatively.
