[Oh good. Thrown down the staircase. Exactly what Tony needs.
He fidgets with the nail as he dragged across the hall, thinking fast. It'd be better if he could use it later, when the surprise would give him a better chance of escape, but on the other hand... Tony really can't think of a way for tumbling down stairs with a rusty nail in his hand would end well for him. He's had quite enough metal in his body, thanks.
Well. Guess that's that. Tony waits until the last possible moment, when the metal grip has loosened. Step one: get rid of the nail. He twists with a loud grunt, flinging his arm out to slam the nail between two plates in the soldier's bicep with all the strength he can muster. Step two: escape. Gravity is unfortunately his best ally here, and he's pretty sure the tumble down will still suck less than whatever Barnes will do to him.]
