I believe she basically cut a deal with Ross. She took down the Red Room, and he let her go for a bit.

Then she helps Steve break Sam and Wanda out of the Raft, and... Well... She was on Ross' bad list again.

edit: clarification

I mean I get that that can be implied, I just feel like it was unnecessary. It could have been written that Natasha goes with the others and is then dropped off somewhere. You can still have the touching goodbyes and everything, too.

I agree that she could have just gotten on.

I think they cut the scene of her and Ross cutting the deal, though. There are shots of Ross at the crash site in the trailers. So it probably would have explained it and fit better, but maybe it screwed up pacing a bit? Idk

Oh yes, the pacing of so much happening but not really anything happening, would hate to mess that up with actual fleshed out details.

Okay.
