Perhaps there's something with Carol beyond 'the Captain' that could be appealed to, maybe even made to see that war against the government is the only way to secure their freedom.

He throws himself forwards in a blinding flash - a living solar flare, roaring with fire and light and heat - and bullets headlong at the Captain and those glowing fists.
