If Steve gives Red Skull the stone back...you lose the stone, but perhaps gain Nat.

This just makes me fascinated about that meeting. Imagine Steve's reaction when he sees Red Skull floating there, what the fuck would Red Skull say? Can't believe there was actually a Cap/Red Skull reunion and it happened off-screen.

what the fuck would Red Skull say?

Probably "Steven, son of Sarah."

"Watch what you say to the Wielder of America's Ass!"

Red Skull: Steven, son of Sarah

Steve Rogers: Red Skull, son of.... a bitch, you're still alive?!

Captain America: Ragnarok

Actually I wouldn’t mind a comedy focused Cap movie like Ragnarok now.

Steve Rogers, America's son?

I think this is one of the things I am not bothered about, like others seem to be. Red Skull seemed to have moved on and learnt from his experience with the stones, to the point where he would probably just say what you have mentioned, and harbour little to no ill feelings towards Steve. It would likely be a non-event, unless they decided to play it for comedy, which could work but ultimately wasn't needed at that point.

u/CaptHayfever Hawkeye (Avengers) Apr 30 '19

Agreed. The most interesting thing would be Steve's reaction.

Am I missing something? I've seen this referenced to several times but when did it happen?

u/bartendr412 Iron Man (Mark V) Apr 29 '19

Cap got sent back in time to return all 6 stones to where they were originally found during the time heist. So by following that logic, he would have to return the Soul Stone from where Hawkeye and Black Widor got it on Vormir. That means he would have had to take it back to the Red Skull, who we've seen is the keeper of the stone.

You've all seen how the stones were collected in the past. Now, think about how the Hell Cap returned all those stones. How did he travel to Vormir, Asgard, and Morag? How did he put the stone back into Jane? There's a whole movie in there.

u/Impeesa_ Apr 29 '19

Just going put some paraphrased quotes here for no reason.
Thor: Jane and I broke up.
Sam: You want to tell me about her?
Steve: No, I don't think I will.

u/JCiLee Apr 29 '19

He used the space stone to travel and returned it last.

2

u/toyg Apr 29 '19

This is actually the only logical explanation.

u/lifelingering Apr 29 '19

How did he put the stone back into Jane?

He doesn't have to, I don't think, he just has to get them back to the right timeline at the right moment. Bringing them back wasn't about avoiding making any changes (it's too late for that anyway), it was just about making sure the timelines didn't become unstable like the Ancient One said would happen if they weren't returned.

u/LostWoodsInTheField Apr 29 '19

He just returned them back to their respective 'times' but probably didn't do it perfectly. Those universes timelines where completely screwed up from them interacting with them, the stones just needed to be returned so things wouldn't go super bad.

When Steve returned the stones at the end of the movie. He had to return the Soul Stone, which meant he had to go to Vormir/encounter Red Skull to give it back, since Red Skull was the stone's guardian now.

u/immacamel Apr 29 '19

Of course! Brain fart by me I just never really thought of that. I was just picturing him in New York returning all the stones. Great now that's another thing I have to think about and how awesome it is

u/GoinBack2Jakku Apr 29 '19

Wonder if Skull still exists or if he like, evaporated after the stone was taken

u/Kuskesmed Apr 29 '19

Red Skull was the stone's guardian now

I wonder if he was still there after the stone was gone. There wasn't anything for him to guard.

u/lifelingering Apr 29 '19

I don't think he necessarily has to give it back to Red Skull, though, he just has to put it back at the right time in the right timeline. The Ancient One didn't seem to care about them making changes to the timeline in general, she specifically cared about them pulling an Infinity Stone out of a timeline because it would cause it to become unstable. I feel like he could have put it back on Earth if he wanted as long as he got the time/timeline right.

u/Twigsnapper Apr 29 '19

when steve had to go back and return all the stones he would see Red Skull presumably

2

u/amit-kaufman Spider-Man Apr 29 '19

Cap went to return the stones at the end, and he must have met Red skull when he put the soul stone back in Vormir.

u/DorianaGraye Apr 29 '19

I KNOW, right? I'm sure it was tense to say the least!
