Arthur is lucky he doesn't get shoved back into the car like a kidnap victim. But Bucky does get the door and tries to guide him in without bumping his head on the roof.
Somehow it feels a little easier to talk once they're both back in the car. Bucky takes a deep breath in and out.
"I just want you to tell me what you want from me. And be specific about it. That's all. I will do my best to get you what you want." He's not going to get offended if he gets talked down to like a child.
