[to Thor as he gets tricked by Loki's body double power
thinking he's escaping the cell and instead he ends up in the cell]
Loki: Are you ever not going to fall for
that?
[to Thor as he tries to use his hammer to break the glass
cell]
Loki: The humans think us immortal. Should
we test that?
[as
Loki is about to open the whole in the middle of the glass cell,
Coulson suddenly appears and threatens Loki with a Phase 2 weapon
prototype]
Agent Phil Coulson: Move away, please.
[Loki moves away from the switch]
Agent Phil Coulson:
You like this? We started working on the prototype after you sent The
Destroyer. Even I don't know what it does. Do you wanna find out?
[just as he's about to
use the weapon suddenly Loki stabs Coulson from behind]
Thor: Nooo!
[Loki
hits the button and opens the whole in the cell and drops Thor out of
the ship trapped in the glass cage, just as the cage is about to hit
the ground he uses his hammer to break free through the glass and leap
free]
[after dropping Thor to earth, Loki turns to leave but
Coulson stops him]
Agent Phil Coulson: You're gonna lose.
Loki: Am I?
Agent Phil Coulson: It's in your nature.
Loki: You're heroes are scattered, your
floating fortress falls from the sky. Where is my disadvantage?
Agent Phil Coulson: Your lack conviction.
Loki: I don't think I...
[suddenly shoots Loki through the wall with the Phase 2
weapon which blasts out fire]
Agent Phil Coulson: So that's what it does.
[as Stark is trying to get the engine started up]
Tony Stark: Cap, need a lever.
[Steve, who had been fighting with Loki's soldiers is now
hanging from the edge of the ship hanging on to a wire ]
Steve Rogers: I need a minute here!
Tony Stark: Lever! Now!
[Steve
drags himself back on the ship but Loki's soldiers start shooting at
him, Stark then gets dragged out of the engine just as Steve manages to
pull the red lever]
[as Loki escapes the ship via a jet, Fury finds Coulson
gravely wounded]
Agent Phil Coulson: I'm sorry, boss. They
got rabbited.
Nick Fury: Just stay awake. Eyes on me.
Agent Phil Coulson: No, I'm clockin' out
here.
Nick Fury: Not an option.
Agent Phil Coulson: It's okay, boss. This
was never gonna work if they didn't have something to...
[Coulson dies before he can finish the sentence]
[after Coulson dies, Fury gathers the remaining Avengers in
the ship's meeting room]
Nick Fury: These were in Phil Coulson's
jacket. Guess he never did get you to sign them.
[he throws Coulson's Captain America trading cards on the
table towards Steve]
Nick Fury:
We're dead in the air up here. Our communications, location of the
cube, Banner, Thor. I got nothing for you. Lost my one good eye. Maybe
I had that coming.
[he pauses for a moment]
Nick Fury:
Yes, we were going to build an arsenal with the Tesseract. I never put
all my chips on that number though, because I was playing something
even riskier. There was an idea, Stark knows this, called The Avengers
Initiative. The idea was to bring together a group of remarkable
people, see if they could become something more. See if they could work
together when we needed them to, to fight the battles that we never
could. Phil Coulson died still believing in that idea, in heroes.
[Stark gets up and walks off]
Nick Fury: Well, it's an old fashioned
notion.
[Banner now in his human form, wakes up naked in a pile of
rubble in an abandoned building]
Security Guard: You fell out of the sky.
Bruce Banner: Did I hurt anybody?
Security Guard: There's nobody around here
to get hurt. You did scare the hell out of some pigeons though.
Bruce Banner: Lucky.
Security Guard: Or just good aim. You were
awake when you fell.
Bruce Banner: You saw?
Security Guard: The whole thing, right
through the ceiling. Big and green and buck ass nude. Here...
[he throws Banner a pair of trousers]
Security Guard: I didn't think those would
fit you until you shrunk down to a regular size fella.
Bruce Banner: Thank you.
[Banner put on the trousers]
Security Guard: Are you an alien?
Bruce Banner: What?
Security Guard: From outer space, an alien?
Bruce Banner: No.
Security Guard: Well then, son, you've got
a condition.
[after Natasha has won her fight with Barton, she's strapped
him down so that he can shake off Loki's mind control]
Natasha Romanoff: Clint, You're gonna be
alright.
Clint Barton: You know that? Is that what
you know? I got...I gotta go in though. I gotta flush him out.
Natasha Romanoff: We don't have that long,
it's gonna take time.
Clint Barton:
I don't understand. Have you ever had someone take your brain and play?
Pull you out and send something else in? Do you know what it's like to
be unmade?
Natasha Romanoff: You know that I do.
Clint Barton: Why am I back? How did you
get him out?
Natasha Romanoff: Cognitive recalibration
I hit you really hard in the head.
Clint Barton: Thanks.
[Natasha frees his hands from the restraints]
Clint Barton: Tasha, how many agents?
Natasha Romanoff: Don't. Don't do that to
yourself, Clint. This is Loki. This is monsters and magic and nothing
we were ever trained for.
Clint Barton: Loki, he got away?
Natasha Romanoff: Yeah. I don't suppose
you know where?
Clint Barton: I didn't need to know. I
didn't ask. He's gonna make his play soon though. Today.
Natasha Romanoff: We gotta stop him.
Clint Barton: Yeah? Who's we?
Natasha Romanoff: I don't know. Who's ever
left.
Clint Barton: Well, if I put an arrow in
Loki's eye socket, I'd sleep better I suppose.
Natasha Romanoff: Now you sound like you.
Clint Barton: But you don't. You're a spy,
not a soldier. Now you want to wade into a war. Why? What did Loki do
to you?
Natasha Romanoff: He didn't, I just...
[she pauses]
Clint Barton: Natasha.
Natasha Romanoff: I've been compromised. I
got red in my ledger, I'd like to wipe it out.
[referring to Coulson]
Steve Rogers: Was he married?
Tony Stark: No. He was a uh...cellist, I
think.
Steve Rogers: I'm sorry. He seemed like a
good man.
Tony Stark: He was an idiot.
Steve Rogers: Why? For believing?
Tony Stark: For taking on Loki alone.
Steve Rogers: He was doing his job.
Tony Stark: He was out of his league. He
should have waited. He should have...
Steve Rogers: Sometimes there isn't a way
out, Tony.
Tony Stark: Right. How did that work for
him?
Steve Rogers: Is this the first time
you've lost a soldier?
Tony Stark: We are not soldiers! I'm not
marching to Fury's fife.
Steve Rogers:
Neither am I. He's got the same blood on his hands that Loki does, but
right now we gotta put that behind us and get this done. Now Loki needs
a power source, if we can put together a list...
Tony Stark: He made it personal.
Steve Rogers: That's not the point.
Tony Stark: That is the point. That's
Loki's point. He hit us all right where we live. Why?
Steve Rogers: To tear us apart.
Tony Stark:
He had to conquer his greed, but he knows he has to take us out to win,
right? That's what he wants. He wants to beat us, he wants to be seen
doing it. He wants an audience.
Steve Rogers: Right. I caught his act in
Stuttgart.
Tony Stark:
Yeah. That's just previews, this is...this is opening night. And Loki,
he's a full-tail diva. He wants flowers, he wants parades, he wants a
monument built to the skies with his name plastered!
[suddenly Stark realizes that Loki wants to use Stark Towers]
Tony Stark: Son of a bitch.
Steve Rogers: Time to go.
Natasha Romanoff: Go where?
Steve Rogers: I'll tell you on the way.
Can you fly one of those jets?
[Barton walks into the room]
Clint Barton: I can.
[Steve looks at Natasha and she nods her head to confirm
Barton's on their side]
Steve Rogers: You got a suit?
Clint Barton: Yeah.
Steve Rogers: Then suit up.
[as Steve, Barton and Natasha walk onto the jet]
Young Shield Pilot: You guys aren't
authorized to be in here.
Steve Rogers: Son, just don't.
Agent Maria Hill: Sir.
Nick Fury: Agent Hill?
Agent Maria Hill: Those cards, they were
in Coulson's locker, not in his jacket.
Nick Fury: They needed the push.
[he watches as Stark flies off in his Iron Man suit and the
jet that Steve, Barton and Natasha have boarded sets off]
Nick Fury: They found it. Get our
communications back up, whatever you have to do. I want eyes on
everything.
Agent Maria Hill: Yes, sir.
[Stark arrives at Stark Towers where Selvig, still under
Loki's mind control, is created a device powered by the Tesseract]
Tony Stark: Shut it down, Dr. Selvig.
Selvig: It's too late! It can't stop now.
He wants to show us something! A new universe.
Tony Stark: Okay.
[Stark uses his suit to shoot at the device but the Tesseract
shoots up a blue bolt into the sky, opening a doorway to outer space,
where the Chitauri's army awaits]
Jarvis: The barrier is pure energy. It's
unbreachable.
[Stark lands on Stark Towers and unsuits himself walking into
his penthouse where Loki is waiting]
Loki: Please tell me you're going to
appeal to my humanity.
Tony Stark: Uh...actually, I'm planning to
threaten you.
Loki: You should have left your armor on
for that.
Tony Stark: Yeah, it's seen a bit of
mileage. You've got the blue stick of destiny. Would you like a drink?
Loki: Stalling me won't change anything.
Tony Stark: No, no, no! Threatening. No
drink? You sure? I'm having one.
Loki: The Chitauri are coming, nothing
will change that. What have I to fear?
Tony Stark: The Avengers. It's what we
call ourselves, sort of like a team. 'Earth's Mightiest Heroes' type of
thing.
Loki: Yes, I've met them.
Tony Stark:
Yeah, takes us a while to get any traction, I'll give you that one.
But, let's do a head count here. Your brother, the demi-God; a super
soldier, a living legend who kind of lives up to the legend; a man with
breath-taking anger management issues; a couple of master assassins,
and you, big fella, you've managed to piss off every single one of them.
[as Loki turns away, Stark puts on his Iron Man suit homing
bracelet]
Loki: That was the plan.
Tony Stark: Not a great plan. When they
come, and they will, they'll come for you.
Loki: I have an army.
Tony Stark: We have a Hulk.
Loki: I thought the beast had wandered off.
Tony Stark:
You're missing the point. There's no throne, there is no version of
this, where you come out on top. Maybe your army comes and maybe it's
too much for us, but it's all on you. Because if we can't protect the
Earth, you can be damned well sure we'll avenge it.
Loki: How will your friends have time for
me, when they're so busy fighting you?
[suddenly
Loki hits Stark on the chest with his scepter planning to mind-control
him, but the scepter doesn't work on Stark because of his mechanical
heart]
Loki: It should work!
Tony Stark: Well, performance issues. You
know?
[in anger Loki grabs Stark by the throat and flings him
across the room]
Tony Stark: Jarvis, anytime now.
[Loki grabs Stark by the throat again]
Loki: You will all fall before me.
[Loki
throws Stark out the window but Stark uses a homing bracelet to call
his Iron Man suit, so the suit flies out the window and catches him
before he hits the ground, he flies back up to the Tower where Loki is
still standing]
Tony Stark: And there's one other person
you pissed off! His name is Phil.
[after the gateway has opened and the Chitauri warriors fly down to
earth and start attacking the streets of Manhattan, Thor arrives on
Stark Tower]
Thor: Loki, turn off the Tesseract or I'll
destroy it!
Loki: You can't. There is no stopping it.
There is only the war!
Thor: So be it.
[Loki attacks Thor and they start fighting]
[as Stark is battling with the Chitauri warriors, Natasha,
Steve and Barton arrive in the jet]
Natasha Romanoff: Stark, we're heading
north east.
Tony Stark: What, did you stop for
drive-thru? Swing that park, I'm gonna lay 'em out for you.
[after their jet crashes, Steve, Natasha and Barton end up on
the ground, they notice a giant airship that looks like a flying worm
coming through the portal along with more warriros]
Steve Rogers: Stark, are you seeing this?
Tony Stark: I'm seeing, still working on
believing. Where's Banner? Has he shown up yet?
Steve Rogers: Banner?
Tony Stark: Just keep me posted.
[referring to the giant worm like ship as he flies past it]
Tony Stark: Jarvis, find me a soft spot.
[referring to the Chitauri destroying Manhattan]
Thor: Look at this! Look around you! You
think this madness will end with your rule?
Loki: It's too late. It's too late to stop
it.
Thor: No. We can, together.
[suddenly Loki stabs Thor]
Loki: Sentiment!
[referring to the Chitauri warriors that have landed near
them]
Steve Rogers: You think you can hold them
off?
Clint Barton: Captain, it would be my
genuine pleasure.
[as Barton and Natasha start shooting at the Chitauri, Steve
makes his way towards the cops nearby to help them]
[as they are fighting off the Chitauri together]
Natasha Romanoff: Just like Budapest all
over again!
Clint Barton: You and I remember Budapest
very differently.
[as they watch Manhattan getting destroyed by the Chitauri
warriors]
Police Sergeant: Does the army know what's
happening here?
Young Cop: Do we?!
[suddenly Steve jumps in front of them]
Steve Rogers: I need men in these
buildings. There are people inside that can run into the line of fire.
You take them through the basement or through the subway, you keep them
off the streets. I need a perimeter as far back as 39th.
Police Sergeant: Why the hell should I
take orders from you?
[suddenly two of the Chitauri warriors attack, the cops watch
in shock as Steve fights them off with ease, the Sergeant turns to his
officer and gives out Steve's earlier orders]
Police Sergeant: I need men in those
buildings, lead the people down and away from the streets
[as Thor arrives on ground to join Steve, Natasha and Barton]
Thor: The powers surrounding the cube is
impenetrable.
[Stark talks to them through his Iron Man suit]
Tony Stark: Thor is right, we gotta deal
with these guys.
Natasha Romanoff: How do we do this?
Steve Rogers: As a team.
Thor: I have unfinished business with Loki.
Clint Barton: Yeah, get in line.
Steve Rogers: Save it. Loki's gonna keep
this fight focused on us and that's what we need. Without him these
things could run wild. We got Stark up top, he's gonna need us...
[just then Banner arrives on a motorbike]
Bruce Banner: So, this all seems horrible.
Natasha Romanoff: I've seen worse.
Bruce Banner: Sorry.
Natasha Romanoff: No, we could use a
little worse.
Steve Rogers: Stark, we got him, Banner,
just like you said.
Tony Stark: Tell him to suit up. I'm
bringing the party to you.
[they watch as Stark draws the giant worm ship towards them]
Natasha Romanoff: I don't see how that's a
party.
Steve Rogers: Dr. Banner, now might be a
good time for you to get angry.
Bruce Banner: That's my secret, Captain.
I'm always angry.
[he transforms into the Hulk and smashes the giant worm like
ship to bits]
[they watch as hundreds more giant worm like ships comes
through portal]
Natasha Romanoff: Guys.
Tony Stark: Call it, Captain.
Steve Rogers: Alright, listen up. Until we
can close that portal up there, we're gonna

use containment. Barton, I want you on that roof, eyes on everything.
Call out patterns and strays. Stark, you got the perimeter. Anything
gets more than three blocks out, you turn it back or your turn it to
ash.
[to Stark]
Clint Barton: Wanna give me a lift?
Tony Stark: Right. Better clench up,
Legolas.
[Stark lifts Barton up to the building]
Steve Rogers: Thor, you've gotta try and
bottleneck that portal, slow them down. You've got the lightning, light
the bastards up.
[to Natasha]
Steve Rogers: You and me, we stay here on
the ground, keep the fighting here. And Hulk, smash!
[as they are all busy fighting off the Chitauri army]
Natasha Romanoff: Captain, none of this is
gonna mean a damn thing if we don't close that portal.
Steve Rogers: Our biggest guns couldn't
touch it.
Natasha Romanoff: Well, maybe it's not
about guns.
Steve Rogers: You wanna get up there,
you're gonna need a ride.
Natasha Romanoff: I got a ride. I could
use a lift though.
Steve Rogers: Are you sure about this?
Natasha Romanoff: Yeah, it's gonna be fun.
[Steve gives her boost with his shield and Natasha jumps up
and commandeers one of the hover boards to fly to the top of Stark
Tower]
[whilst The Avengers are fighting with the Chitauri, Fury is
having a conference with the world security council]
World Security Council #2: Director Fury,
the council has made a decision.
Nick Fury: I recognize the council has
made a decision, but given that it's a stupid assed decision, I've
elected to ignore it.
World Security Council #1: Director,
you're closer than any of our subs, you scramble that jet...
Nick Fury: That is the island of
Manhattan, Councilman. Until I'm certain my team can't hold it, I will
not order a nuclear strike against a civilian population.
World Security Council #1: If we don't
hold them in the air, we lose everything.
Nick Fury: I'd send that bird out, we
already have.
[after Hulk throws Loki through a window into the Stark Tower
penthouse]
Loki: Enough! You are all of you beneath
me! I am God, you dull creature, and I will not be bullied by...
[Hulk grabs Loki by the legs and smashes him against the
floor repeatedly and finally throws him aside to the ground]
The Hulk: Puny God.
[as Hulk walks away Loki whimpers in pain]
[after Natasha lands on on the top of Stark Tower, Professor
Selvig is hit in the head with a piece of shrapnel, ending Loki's mind
control]
Natasha Romanoff: Doctor.
Selvig: Loki's scepter, the energy...the
Tesseract can't fight. You can't protect against yourself.
Natasha Romanoff: It's not your fault. You
didn't know what you were doing.
Selvig: Well, actually I think I did. I
built in a safety to cut the power source.
Natasha Romanoff: Loki's scepter.
Selvig: It might be able to close the
portal. And I'm looking right at it.
[after the world security council has decided to ignore
Fury's advice and sent a nuclear missile towards Manhattan]
Nick Fury: Stark, you hearing me? We have
a missile headed straight for the city.
Tony Stark: How long?
Nick Fury: Three minutes, at best.
[as they are battling it out with the Chitauri, Steve is
struck down and Thor helps him back to his feet]
Thor: You ready for another bout?
Steve Rogers: What, you gettin' sleepy?
[on Stark Tower, Natasha has Loki’s scepter and is about to
shut the portal when she calls to the others]
Natasha Romanoff: I can close it! Can
anybody hear me? I can shut the portal down!
Steve Rogers: Do it!
Tony Stark: No, wait!
Steve Rogers: Stark, these things are
still coming!
Tony Stark: I got a nuke coming in, it's
gonna blow in less than a minute.
[as he flies towards the missile]
Tony Stark: And I know just where to put
it.
[as Stark grabs the missile and heads towards the portal]
Steve Rogers: Stark, you know that's a one
way trip.
Jarvis:
Stark, we're losing altitude.
Tony Stark: Yeah, I noticed.
[Stark uses the last of the power in his suit and flies
straight through the portal and sends the the nuke towards the massive
Chitauri mother ship, blowing it up]
[after exploding the Chitauri ship, Stark's suit dies and he
slowly falls backwards and just as Natasha closes the portal Stark
falls through the gap and plummets to the earth]
Steve Rogers: Sun of a gun!
Thor: He's not slowing down.
[just before Stark hits the ground, the Hulk snags him out of
the air]
[after Hulk saves Stark, Steve takes off Stark's helmet,
but he appears to be dead, Hulk yells in fury, and the noise startles
Stark awake]
Tony Stark: What the hell? What just
happened? Please tell me nobody kissed me?
Steve Rogers: We won.
Tony Stark: Alright. Hey. Alright. Good
job, guys. Let's just not come in tomorrow. Let's just take a day. Have
you ever tried shawarma? There's a shawarma joint about two blocks from
here. I don't know what it is, but I wanna try it.
Thor: We're not finished yet.
Tony Stark: And then shawarma after.
[in Stark's penthouse, Loki turns to finds himself surrounded
by The Avengers]
Loki: If it's all the same to you, I'll
have that drink now.
[Stan Lee's cameo]
Old Man in TV Report: Superheroes? In New
York? Give me a break!
[as we see TV news montage about The Avengers]
Senator Boynton: These so called heroes
have to be held responsible for the destruction done to the city. This
was
their fight. Where are they now?
[as Fury meets with the world security council, at the same
time we see The Avengers meet up one last time to say goodbye and to
give the Tesseract to Thor who takes it and Loki back to Asgard]
World Security Council #3: Where are The
Avengers?
Nick Fury: I'm not currently tracking
their whereabouts. I'd say they'd earned a leave of absence.
World Security Council #2: And the
Tesseract?
Nick Fury: The Tesseract is where it
belongs, out of our reach.
World Security Council #1: That's not your
call.
Nick Fury: I didn't make it. I just didn't
argue with the God that did.
World Security Council #1: So you let him
take it and the war criminal, Loki, who should be answering for his
crime.
Nick Fury: Oh, I think he will be.
World Security Council #2: I don't think
you understand what you've started, letting The Avengers loose on this
world. They're dangerous.
Nick Fury: They surely are, and the whole
world knows it. Every world knows it.
World Security Council #1: Was that the
point in all this? A statement.
Nick Fury: A promise.
[last lines]
Agent Maria Hill: Sir, how does it work
now? They've gone their separate ways, some pretty extremely far. We
get into a situation like this again, what happens then?
Nick Fury: They'll come back.
Agent Maria Hill: Are you really sure
about that?
Nick Fury: I am.
Agent Maria Hill: Why?
Nick Fury: Because we'll need them to.
[final shot shows Stark with Pepper Pots looking at plans for
rebuilding Stark Tower, the letters for "STARK TOWER" have been blown
away, and all that remains is a giant A]
[lines during the credits; the leader of the Chitauri
warriors kneels before a mysterious alien]
The Other: The humans are stronger than we
thought. To attack them is to court death.
[the mysterious alien simply turns and smiles, and we see it
is Thanos]
