Honestly, he doesn't. He frowns as he tries to remember where he knows her from, but he's got a good memory for faces and unless she's been recently reanimated, he doesn't have to go back very far in memory to try and place her.

Confidently, he can say that no, he doesn't know her at all, until she says that people are after him. And he's confused, because he thought she knew him.

"Ma'am, I'm sure there are a lot of people after me and I think I can handle it," he says. "But if you'd like to tell me who they are in advance, I'd appreciate the help." He smiles because he thinks she's probably a psychic or something, and he's had his fair share of those. But she seems nice enough, so he gestures for her to sit down. "Can I get you a coffee?"

He thinks about this for a second, but he decides he wants information first. He can sense the urgency in her voice, and he says: "Why don't we go someplace more secure?" He gets up and offers her a hand. "And then you can tell me about who's coming after me on the way over." This is how he makes a deal. He'll trust her; he'll even believe something wrong is going to happen if she doesn't get to talk to him for five minutes, but this is all a little bit far-fetched and he definitely wants to take this on his terms.

He's sure that if something does come for him, he can handle it. If not, his friends are only a phonecall away. Bucky's probably in Manhattan and Sam is at home this weekend; half of the Avengers are away on leave but the rest of them are in the city. Two of the people he knows he can count on right now to help can fly, and quickly, so no, he's not worried at all. He's not scared, and he doesn't even seem to be confused.

It'll take at least five minutes to walk to the Helicarrier, so that'll at least give them the time to talk for whatever it is she needs to say. Other than that, he doesn't know another place he could go to completely disappear.
