- Can you see?
- Yeah.
- You sure?
- Mm-hmm.
How about now?
Can you see now?
All right.
Ready? Three fingers.
Nice!
- Nice throw, kiddo!
- Go.
Hey, you guys want mayo
or mustard, or both?
Who wants mayo on a hotdog?
Pardon your brothers. Two mustards, please!
Thanks, momma.
Got it.
Nate, mayo or mustard?
I want ketchup.
Mind your elbow...
Good job, Hawkeye!
Go get your arrow.
Hey, guys. Enough practice.
Soup's on.
All right. We're coming.
We're hungry.
Lila, let's go.
Lila?
Honey?
Babe?
Babe?
Babe?
Boys!
Boys?
Laura!
You don't need to do that,
because you're just
holding the position.
Come on.
That was close.
That's a goal. We're
now one a-piece.
I would like to try again.
We're tied up.
Feel the tension? It's fun.
That was terrible. Now you
have a chance to win.
And you won. Congratulations.
Fair game.
Good sport.
You had fun?
It was fun.
This thing on?
Hey, Miss Potts... Pep.
If you find this recording...
don't post it, on social media.
It's gonna be a real tear-jerker.
I don't know if you're
ever gonna see these.
I don't even know
if you're still...
Oh, God. I hope so...
Today is day 21... uh, 22.
You know, if it wasn't for
the existensial terror of
staring into the
literal void of space,
I'd say, I'm feeling
more better today.
The infection's run its course,
thanks to the blue meanie back there.
You'd love her. Very practical.
Only a tiny bit sadistic.
Some fuel cells were cracked during battle, but
we figured out a way to reverse the ion charge
to buy ourselves, about,
48 hours of playtime.
But it's now dead in the water.
We're 1,000 lightyears
from the nearest 7-11.
Oxygen will run out
tomorrow morning.
That'll be it.
And Pep, I...
I know I said no
more surprises, but
I gotta say I was really hoping
to pull off one last one.
But it looks like...
Well, you know what
it looks like.
Don't feel bad about this.
I mean actually if you
grovel for a couple weeks,
and then, move on
with enormous guilt.
I should probably lie down.
I'm gonna caress my
Please know that...
When I drift off, it will be
goodbye the whole time...
I'll think about you.
Because it's always you.
- Couldn't stop him.
- Neither could I.
I lost the kid.
Tony, we lost.
Is, umm...
Oh, my God!
It's okay.
It's been 23 days since
Thanos came to Earth.
World governments are in pieces.
The parts that are still working
are trying to take a census,
And it looks like he did...
He did exactly what he said he
was gonna do. Thanos wiped out..
...fifty percent of
all living creatures.
Where is he now? Where?
We don't know.
He just opened a portal
and walked through.
What's wrong with him?
He's pissed.
He thinks he failed.
Which of course he did, but there's a
lot of that goin' around, ain't there?
Honestly, at this exact second, I
thought you were a Build-A-Bear.
Maybe I am.
We've been hunting Thanos
for three weeks now.
Deep space scans, and
satellites, and we got nothing.
- Tony you fought him.
- Who told you that?
Didn't fight him.
No. He wiped my face
with a planet while a
Bleecker Street magician
gave away the stone.
- That's what happened. There was no fight...
- Okay.
Did he give you any clues?
Any coordinates, anything?
Pfft!
I saw this coming a few years back. I had
a vision. I didn't wanna believe it.
Thought I was dreaming.
- Tony I'm gonna need you to focus.
- And I needed you.
As in past tense. That trumps what
you need. It's too late, buddy.
Sorry.
You know what I need?
I need to shave.
- And I believe I rememeber telling
- Tony, Tony, Tony...
why that otherwise,
that what we needed was a suit of armor
around the world. Remember that?
Whether it impacted our precious
freedoms, or not. That's what we needed.
- Well that didn't work out, did it?
- I said we'd lose.
You said, "We'll do
that together, too."
Well guess what, Cap? We lost.
You weren't there.
But that's what we do, right?
Our best work after the fact?
We're the Avengers? We're the Avengers?
Not the Prevengers?
Okay. You made your point.
Just sit down, okay?
- No, no. Here's my... She's great, by the way.
- Tony, sit, sit down!
We need you. You're new blood.
Bunch of tired old mills...
I got nothing for you, Cap.
I got no coordinates,
no clues, no strategies,
no options...
Zero. Zip. Nada. No
trust, you liar...
Here, take this. You find
him and you put that on.
You hide.
- Tony!
- I'm fine. I...
Bruce gave him a sedative. He's gonna
probably be out for the rest of the day.
You guys take care of him. And I'll bring
an Bezurian elixir when I come back.
- Where are you going?
- To kill Thanos.
Hey.
You know we usually work
as a team here, and
between you and I we're
also a little fragile.
We realize up there is more your
territory but this is our fight, too.
- You even know where he is?
- I know people who might.
Don't bother.
I can tell you where Thanos is.
Thanos spent a long time
trying to perfect me.
Then when he worked, he
talked about his great plan.
Even disassembled, I
wanted to please him.
I'd ask, where would we go
once his plan was complete?
His answer was always the same.
To The Garden.
That's cute. Thanos has
a retirement plan.
So where is he, then?
When Thanos snapped his fingers,
Earth became ground zero for a power surge
of ridiculously cosmic proportions.
No one's ever seen anything like it...
until two days ago.
On this planet.
Thanos is there.
He used the stones again.
Hey, hey, hey...
We'd be going in
short-handed, you know?
- Look, he still got the stones, so...
- So let's get him.
- We use them to bring everyone back.
- Just like that?
Yeah. Just like that.
Even if there's a small chance
that we can undo this...
I mean, we owe it to everyone
who's not in this room to try.
If we do this, how do we know it's gonna
end any differently than it did before?
Because before, you
didn't have me.
Hey, new girl, everybody in this
room is about that superhero life.
And if you don't mind my asking, where
the hell have you been all this time?
There are a lot of other
planets in the universe.
And unfortunately, they
didn't have you guys.
I like this one.
Let's go get this
son of a bitch.
Okay. Who here hasn't
been to space?
You better not throw
up on my ship.
Approaching jump in 3.. 2.. 1.
I'll head down for recon.
- This is gonna work Steve.
- I know it will.
Because I don't know what
I'm gonna do if it doesn't.
No satellites, no ships, no armies,
no ground defenses of any kind.
It's just him.
Then that's enough.
Oh, no.
Where are they?
Answer the question.
The universe
required correction.
After that, the stones served
no purpose, beyond temptation.
You murdered trillions!
You should be grateful.
- Where are the stones?
- Gone.
- Reduced to atoms.
- You used them two days ago.
I used the stones to
destroy the stones.
It nearly killed me.
But the work is done.
It always will be.
I am inevitable.
We have to tear this place apart.
He has to be lying.
My father is many things.
A liar is not one of them.
Thank you, Daughter.
Perhaps I treated
you too harshly...
What... what did you do?
I went for the head.
So I, uh...
Went on a date the other day.
It's the first time in five years,
you know? Sit there, dinner...
I didn't know what
to talk about.
What did you talk about?
Same old crap, you know? How
things have changed, and...
My job, his job....
How much we miss the Mets.
Then things get quiet..
He cried as they were
serving the salads.
What about you?
I cried just before dessert.
But I'm seeing him
again tomorrow, so...
That's great.
You did the hardest part.
You took the jump, you
didn't know where you
were gonna come down.
And that's it. That's those little
brave baby steps you gotta take.
To try and become whole again.
To try and find purpose.
I went in the ice in '45 right
after I met the love of my life.
Woke up 70 years later.
You got to move on.
Got to move on.
The world is in our hands.
It's left to us guys.
And we got to do
something with it.
Otherwise...
Thanos should've
killed all of us.
What the hell?
Hope?
Kid! Hey, kid!
What the hell happened here?
My God...
No. Please. Please, please.
No, no, no...
Excuse me. Sorry.
No, Cassie, no.
No.
No, no.
Please, please,
please, please....
No, Cassie...
What?
Cassie?
Dad?
You're so big!
Yeah, we boarded that highly
suspect warship Danvers pinged.
It was an infectious
garbage scowl.
So, thanks for the hot tip.
- Well, you were closer.
- Yeah. And now we smell like garbage.
You get a reading
on those tremors?
It was a mild subduction
under the African plate.
Do we have a visual? How
are we handling it?
Nat, it's an earthquake
under the ocean.
We handle it by not handling it.
Carol, are we seeing
you here next month?
- Not likely.
- What, you gonna get another haircut?
Listen, fur-face. I'm
covering a lot of territory.
The things that are
happening on Earth are
happening everywhere, on
thousands of planets.
That's a good point.
That's a good point.
So you might not see
me for a long time.
All right. Uh, well...
This channel is always active.
So, anything goes sideways...
Anyone's making trouble
where they shouldn't...
- Comes through me.
- Okay.
All right.
Good luck.
- Where are you?
- Mexico.
The federales found a
room full of bodies.
Looks like a bunch of cartel guys. Never
even had the chance to get their guns off.
- It's probably a rival gang...
- Except it isn't.
It's definitely Barton.
What he's done here, what he's
been doing for the last few years,
I mean, the scene
that he left...
I gotta tell you, there's a part of
me that doesn't even wanna find him.
Will you find out where
he's going next?
Nat...
Please.
Okay.
You know I'd offer to clip your dinner
but you seem pretty miserable already.
You here to do your laundry?
And to see a friend.
Clearly, your friend is fine.
You know I saw a pod of whales
when I was coming up the bridge.
- In the Hudson?
- There's fewer ships, cleaner water.
You know, if you're about to tell
me to look on the bright side...
Um...
I'm about to hit you in the head
with a peanut butter sandwich.
Sorry. Force of habit.
You know I keep telling everybody
they should move on and... grow.
Some do.
But not us.
- If I move on, who does this?
- Maybe it doesn't need to be done.
I used to have nothing.
And then I got this.
This job.
This family.
And I was... I was
better because of it.
And even though...
they're gone...
Now, I'm still
trying to be better.
I think we both
need to get a life.
You first.
Oh... Hi. Hi!
Is anyone home?
This is Scott Lang.
We met a few years ago, at the airport?
In Germany?
I got really big and
I had my mask on.
- You wouldn't recognize me.
- Is this an old message?
Ant-Man? Ant-Man, I
know you know that.
It's the front gate.
I need to talk to you guys.
Scott.
- Are you okay?
- Yeah.
Have either of you guys ever
studied quantum physics?
Only in mid-conversation.
Alright. So...
Five years ago, right before...
Thanos,
I was in a place called
the quantum realm.
The quantum realm is like its
own microscopic universe.
To get in there, you have to be
incredibly small. Hope, she's my...
She... she was my...
She was supposed to pull me out.
And then Thanos happened, and
- I got stuck in there.
- Sorry. That must've been a long 5 years.
Yeah, but that's just it.
It wasn't.
For me it was five hours.
See, the rules of the quantum realm
aren't like they are up here.
Everything is unpredictable. Is that
anybody's sandwich? I'm starving.
Scott.
What are you talking about?
So...
What I'm saying is...
Time works differently
in the quantum realm.
The only problem is right now, we
don't have a way to navigate it.
But what if we did?
I can't stop thinking about it. What
if we could somehow control the chaos,
and we could navigate it? What if
there was a way that we can enter
the quantum realm at a certain
point in time but then
exit the quantum realm at
another point in time? Like...
Like before Thanos.
Wait, are you talking
about a time machine?
No. No, of course not.
No, not a time machine.
It's more like a...
Yeah, a time machine. I know it's crazy.
It's crazy.
But I can't stop thinking about it.
There's gotta be...
Some wa... It's crazy.
I get e-mails from a raccoon. So,
nothing sounds crazy anymore.
So who do we talk to about this?
Chow-time!
Morgoona.
Morgan H. Stark.
Want some lunch?
- Define lunch or be disintegrated.
- Okay.
You should not be
wearing that, okay?
That is part of a special anniversary
gift I'm making for Mom.
There you go. Are you
thinking about lunch?
Want a handful of crickets?
- No.
- That's what you want.
- How did you find this?
- Garage.
Really?
- Were you looking for it?
- No.
I found it, though.
You like going to the garage, huh?
So does Daddy.
It's fine actually. Mom never
wears anything I wear.
Now, we know what
it sounds like...
Tony after everything you've seen,
is anything really impossible...
Quantum fluctuation messes
with the Planck scale,
which then triggers the Deutsch
proposition. Can we agree on that?
Thank you.
In Layman's terms, it means
you're not coming home.
- I did.
- No.
You accidentally survived. It's a---
It's a billion-to-one
cosmic fluke.
And now you wanna pull a...
What do you call it?
- A time heist?
- Yeah. Time heist.
Of course. Why didn't we
think of this before?
Oh! Because it's laughable?
Because it's a pipedream?
The stones are in the past. We
can go back and we can get them.
We can snap our own fingers.
We can bring everybody back.
Or screw it up worse than
he already has, right?
I don't believe we would.
Gotta say this. Sometimes, I
miss that giddy optimism.
However, high hopes won't
help if there's no logical,
tangible, way for me to safely
execute said time heist.
I believe the most likely outcome
will be our collective demise.
Not if we strictly follow
the rules of time travel.
That means no talking to our past selves,
no betting on sporting events...
I'm gonna stop you
right there, Scott.
Are you seriously telling
me that your plan to
save the universe is based
on Back to the Future?
- No.
- Good. You had me worried there.
'Cause that'd be horseshit. That's
not how quantum physics works.
Tony...
We have to take a stand.
We did stand. And
yet, here we are.
I know you got a lot on the line.
You got a wife, a daughter.
But I lost someone very important to me.
A lot of people did.
And now, now, we have a chance to bring
her back. To bring everyone back.
And you're telling me
that you won't even...
That's right, Scott.
I won't. Leave it.
Got a kid.
Mommy told me to
come and save you.
Good job. I'm saved.
I wish you'd come here to
ask me something else.
Anything else. Honestly, I
missed you guys, it was...
- Oh, and table's set for six.
- Tony, I get it.
And I'm happy for you.
I really am.
But this is a second chance.
I got my second chance
right here, Cap.
I can't roll the dice again.
If you don't talk shop,
you can stay for lunch.
- He's scared.
- He's not wrong.
Yeah, but I mean,
what are we gonna do?
We need him. What,
are we gonna stop?
No. I wanna do it right.
We're gonna need a
really big brain.
Bigger than his?
Come on. I feel like I'm the only
one eating. Try some of that.
Have some eggs.
I'm so confused.
- These are confusing times.
- Right. No, no...
- That's not what I meant. I...
- No, I get it.
I'm kidding! I know. It's crazy.
- I'm wearing shirts now.
- Yeah! How? Why?
Five years ago we
got our asses beat.
Except it was worse for me.
Because I lost twice.
First, Hulk lost. Then Banner lost.
Then, we all lost.
- No one blamed you, Bruce.
- I did.
For years I've been
treating the Hulk like he's
some kind of disease,
something to get rid of.
But then I started looking
at him as the cure.
Eighteen months in a gamma lab. I put
the brains and the brawn together.
And now look at me.
Best of both worlds.
- Excuse me, Mr. Hulk?
- Yes?
- Can we get a photo?
- 100%, little person.
Come on, step on up. You mind?
Oh.
- Say "green."
- Green.
Greeeen.
- Did you get that?
- That's good.
Don't you wanna grab one with me?
I'm Ant-Man.
They're Hulk fans.
They don't know Ant-Man.
- Nobody does.
- Wait, no, no, he wants to...
You want to take a
picture with him, right?
He's even saying no he doesn't.
I get it.
I don't want it either. I don't
want a picture with them.
- He's gonna feel bad.
- Sorry.
- They said they'd do it.
- I don't want it anymore.
- You'd feel bad...
- Take the goddamn phone.
Thank you, Mr. Hulk.
No, it's great, kids.
Thank you very much.
- Hulk out!
- Bruce.
- Dab.
- Bruce.
Listen to your Mom.
She knows better.
- About we were saying...
- Right.
The whole time travel do-over?
Guys, it's outside of
my area of expertise.
Well, you pulled this off.
I remember a time when that
seemed pretty impossible, too.
Look at a mod inspiration,
let me see what checks out.
So, recommend one last sim before
we pack it in for the night.
This time, in the shape of a
mobius strip, inverted. Please?
Processing...
Give me that eigenvalue. That, particle
factoring, and spectral decomp.
- Gotta take a second.
- Just a moment.
And don't worry if it doesn't pan out.
I'm just kinda...
Model rendered.
Shit!
Shit!
What are you doing
up, Little Miss?
- Shit.
- No. We don't say that.
Only Mommy says that word. She
coined it, it belongs to her.
Why you up?
'Cause I got some important shit
going on here. What do you think?
No, I got something on my mind.
I got something on my mind.
- Was it Juice Pops?
- Sure was.
That's extortion.
Great minds think alike. Juice
Pops, exactly was on...
my mind.
You done? Yeah? Now you are.
- That face, goes there.
- Tell me a story.
A story.
Once upon a time, a little
girl went to bed. The end.
That ain't the whole story.
Come on, that's your
favorite story.
I love you tons.
I love you 3,000.
Wow.
3,000. That's crazy.
Go to bed. Or I'll
sell all your toys.
Night-night.
Not that it's a competition,
but she loves me 3,000.
You were somewhere in
the low 6 to 900 range.
- What you reading?
- Just a book on composting.
What's new with composting?
- Just ....
- I figured it out...
by the way.
You know, just so we're talking
about the same thing...
Time travel.
What?
Wow.
That's...
Amazing, and.... terrifying.
That's right.
- I got really lucky.
- Yeah. I know.
- A lot of people didn't.
- No, I can't help everybody.
- It sorta seems like you can.
- Not if I stop.
I can put a pin in it
right now, and stop.
Tony...
trying to get you to stop has been one
of the few failures of my entire life.
I sometimes feel I should put it in a locked
box and drop it at the bottom of a lake...
...go to bed.
But would you be able to rest?
Okay, here we go. Time
travel test number one.
Scott, fire up the, uhh...
The van thing.
Breakers are set. Emergency
generators are on standby.
Good. 'Cause if we blow the grid, I don't
wanna lose Tiny here in the 1950's.
- Excuse me?
- He's kidding.
You can't say things like that.
Just... it was, just a bad joke.
- You were kidding, right?
- I have no idea.
We're talking about time travel here.
Either it's all a joke, or none of it is.
We're good! Get your helmet on.
Scott, I'm gonna send you
back a week, but you'll walk
around for an hour, then bring
you back in 10 seconds.
- Makes sense?
- Perfectly not confusing.
Good luck, Scott. You got this.
You're right. I do,
Captain America.
On the count of three.
3.. 2.. 1..
Guys? This doesn't feel right.
- What's going on? Hold on.
- Who is that?
- Is that Scott?
- Yes, it's Scott!
Ooh! My back!
- Can you bring him back?
- I'm working on it!
A baby.
- It's Scott.
- As a baby!
Bring Scott back.
When I say kill the
power, kill the power.
And... kill it!
Somebody peed my pants.
I don't know if it was
"baby" me or "old" me.
Or, just "me" me.
Time travel!
What?
I see this as an absolute win.
Why the long face?
Let me guess. He
turned into a baby.
Among other things, yeah.
What are you doing here?
That's the EPR paradox.
Instead of pushing Lang through time, you
might've wound up pushing time through Lang.
It's tricky. Dangerous. Somebody
coulda cautioned you against it.
- You did.
- Oh, did I?
Thank God, I'm here.
Regardless, I fixed it.
A fully functioning
time-space GPS.
I just want peace.
Turns out, resentment is
corrosive, and I hate it.
Me, too.
We got a shot at getting
these stones, but I
gotta tell you my
priority is to bring back
what we lost? I hope, yes.
Keep what I found? I
have to, at all costs.
And, maybe not die
trying will be nice.
Sounds like a deal.
- Tony, I don't know...
- Why? He made it for you.
Plus, honestly I have to get it out the
garage before Morgan takes it sledding.
Thank you, Tony.
Will you keep that a little quietly?
Didn't bring one for the whole team.
- We are getting, the whole team, yeah?
- We're working on that right now.
- Hey, humie! Where's big green?
- Kitchen. I think.
- That's awesome.
- Rodent, careful on re-entry.
There's an idiot on
the landing zone.
Oh, God!
What's up, regular-sized man?
Kind of a step down from a golden palace
for an Avenger highness or whatnot.
Hey, have a little compassion, pal.
First, they've lost Asgard,
then half the people. They're probably
just happy they have a home.
You shouldn't have come!
Valkyrie!
Great to see you, Angry Girl.
I think I liked you better
either of the other ways.
- This is Rocket.
- How you doin'?
- He won't see you.
- That bad, huh?
We only see him once a month,
when he comes in for...
...supplies.
- It's that bad.
- Yeah.
What the...
Woo! Something died in here.
Hello? Thor?
Are you here about the cable?
The Cinemax ran out two weeks ago,
and, sports were all kind of fuzzy...
Boys! Oh, my God!
My God! How have you been?
Come here, you little rascal!
No, I'm good! I'm good.
That's not necessary!
Hulk, you know my friends,
Miek, Korg, right?
- Hey, boys!
- Hey, guys. Long time no see.
Beer's on the bucket. Feel
free to log on to the wi-fi.
No password, obviously.
Thor, he's back. That kid on the TV
who's called me a dickhead again.
- Noobmaster.
- Yeah, Noobmaster69.
Noobmaster. Hey, it's Thor again.
You know, the God of Thunder?
Listen, buddy. If you don't log off
this game immediately I'm gonna fly
home to your house, come down to
that basement you're hiding in,
rip off your arms then
shove them up your butt!
Oh, that's right. Yes, go cry to
your father, you little weasel!
Thank you, Thor.
Let me know if he
bothers you again, okay?
Thank you very much. I will.
So you guys want a drink?
What are you drinking?
We have beer, tequila,
all sorts of things.
Buddy, you all right?
Yes, I'm fine! Why,
don't I look all right?
You look like melted ice cream.
So, what's up?
We need your help. There might be
a chance we could fix everything.
What, like the cable? 'Cause that's
been driving me bananas for weeks.
Like Thanos.
Don't say that name.
Um, yeah. We don't actually
say that name in here.
Please take your hand off me.
Now, I know that...
guy might scare you.
Why would I be? Why would, why
would I be scared of that guy?
I'm the one who killed
that guy, remember?
Anyone else here
killed that guy?
Nope. Didn't think so.
Korg, why don't you, tell everybody
who chopped Thanos' big head off.
Umm... Stormbreaker?
Now, who's swinging
Stormbreaker?
I get it. You're in a rough spot, okay?
I've been there myself.
You wanna know who
helped me out of it?
I don't know. Is it... Natasha?
It was you.
You helped me.
Why don't you ask the,
Asgardians down there,
how much my help was worth.
The ones that are left, anyway.
I think we can bring them back.
Stop. Just, stop...
I know you think I'm down here wallowing in
my own self-pity, waiting to be rescued and
and saved. But I'm fine, okay?
We're fine, aren't we?
Nah, all good here, mate!
So, whatever it is that
you're offering, we're
not into it, don't care,
couldn't care less.
Goodbye.
We need you, pal.
There's beer on the ship.
What kind?
It's him! He's after Akihiko!
We never did anything to you!
You're done hurting people.
You're crazy!
Wait! Help me!
What I want...
You can't give me.
You shouldn't be here.
Neither should you.
I've got a job to do.
Is that what you're
calling this?
Killing all these people isn't
gonna bring your family back.
We found something.
A chance, maybe...
Don't.
Don't what?
Don't give me hope.
I'm sorry I couldn't
give it to you sooner.
Drifting left. On the
side there, Lebowski.
- Ratchet, how's it going?
- It's Rocket.
Take it easy. You're only
a genius on Earth, pal.
Yup.
Time travel suit? Not bad.
Hey, hey, hey. Easy, easy!
- I'm being very careful.
- No, you're being very Hulky.
- I'm being careful.
- These are Pym particles, all right?
And ever since Hank Pym got snapped
out of existence, this is it.
This is what we have. We're
not making any more.
- Scott, calm down.
- Sorry.
We've got enough for
one round trip, each.
That's it. No do-overs.
Plus, two test runs.
One test run.
All right. I'm not
ready for this.
I'm game.
I'll do it.
Clint, now you're gonna feel
a little discombobulated
from the chronoshift.
Don't worry about it.
Wait a second, let me
ask you something.
If we can do this, you know, go
back in time, why don't we just
find baby Thanos, you know?
And...
- First of all, that's horrible.
- It's Thanos.
And secondly, time doesn't work that way.
Changing the past doesn't change the future.
Look, we go back, we get the
stones before Thanos gets them...
Thanos doesn't have the stones.
Problem solved.
- Bingo.
- That's not how it works.
- Well, that's what I heard.
- What? By who? Who told you that?
Star Trek, Terminator,
TimeCop, Time After Time,
- Quantum Leap.
- A Wrinkle in Time,
- Somewhere in Time,
- Hot Tub Time Machine.
Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. Basically,
any movie that deals with time travel.
Die Hard? No, it's not...
This is known.
I don't know why everyone believes
that, but that isn't true.
Think about it: If you travel to the
past, that past becomes your future.
And your former present
becomes the past.
Which can't now be changed
by your new future...
Exactly.
So Back to the Future's
a bunch of bullshit?
All right, Clint. We're going in 3..
2.. 1...
Cooper?
- Where are my headphones?
- Lila?
Lila! No!
Dad?
Dad?
Hey, hey. Look at me. You okay?
Yeah.
It worked.
It worked.
Okay, so the "how" works.
Now we gotta figure out the
"when," and the "where."
Almost everyone in this
room has had an encounter
with at least one of the
six Infinity Stones.
Well, I'd subtitute the
word 'encounter' for 'damn
near been killed by one of
the six Infinity Stones.'
I haven't. I don't even know what
the hell you're all talking about.
Regardless, we only have enough Pym
Particles for one round trip each,
and these stones have been in a lot of
different places throughout history.
Our history. So, not a lot of
convenient spots to just drop in.
- Which means we have to pick our targets.
- Correct.
So. Let's start
with the Aether.
Thor, what do you know?
Is he asleep?
Where to start? Umm...
The Aether, first,
is not a stone.
Someone's called it a stone before.
Ahem...
It's more of a... an angry
sludge, sort of thing. So...
Someone's gonna need to amend
that, and stop saying that.
Here's an interesting
story, though.
About the Aether. My
grandafther, many years
ago, had to hide the stone
from the Dark Elves.
Scary beings. So Jane...
Oh, there she is. That's Jane...
She's... an old flame of mine.
She... she stuck her hand
inside a rock this one time...
and then the Aether stuck
itself inside her.
And, she became very, very sick.
So I had to take her to
Asgard, which is where I'm from.
And we had to try and fix her.
We were dating at the time, you see. I
got to introduce her to my Mother...
who's dead, and umm....
Oh, you know. Jane and I aren't
even dating anymore, so...
These things happen though, you know.
Nothing lasts forever.
- The only thing that...
- Why don't you come sit down.
I'm not done yet. The only thing that
is permanent in life, is impermanence.
Awesome.
Eggs? Breakfast?
No. I'd like a Bloody Mary.
Quill said he stole the
Power Stone from Morag.
- Is that a person?
- Morag's a planet.
Quill was a person.
Like a planet? Like
in outer space?
Oh, look. It's like a little
puppy, all happy and everything.
Do you wanna go to space? You
wanna go to space, puppy?
I'll take you to space.
- Thanos found the Soul Stone on Vormir.
- What is Vormir?
A dominion of death, at the very
center of Celestial existence.
It's where... Thanos
murdered my sister.
Noted.
- That Time Stone guy...
- Doctor Strange.
Yeah, what kind
of doctor was he?
- Neurostuff meets rabbit from a hat.
- Nice place in the village, though.
- Yeah. Sullivan Street.
- Hmm... Bleecker.
Wait, he lived in New York?
- No. He lived in Toronto.
- Yeah, not Bleecker. It's Sullivan.
Guys, if you pick the right year,
there are three stones in New York.
Shut the front door!
All right. We have a plan.
Six stones, three
teams, one shot.
Five years ago, we lost.
All of us.
We lost friends...
We lost family...
We lost a part of ourselves.
Today, we have a chance
to take it all back.
You know your teams, you
know your missions.
Get the stones, get them back.
One round trip each. No mistakes.
No do-overs.
Most of us are going
somewhere we know.
But it doesn't mean we
should know what to expect.
Be careful. Look out
for each other.
This is the fight of our lives.
And we're gonna win.
Whatever it takes.
Good luck.
- He's pretty good at that.
- Right?
All right. You heard the man.
Stroke those keys, jelly green.
Tractors engaged.
You promise to bring that
back in one piece, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah. Okay.
- I'll do my best.
- As promises go, that was pretty lame.
See you in a minute.
All right, we all have our assignments.
Two stones uptown, one stone, down.
Stay low. Keep an
eye on the clock.
Feel free to smash if
things don't go your way.
I think it's gratuitous,
but whatever.
I'd be careful going that way.
We just had the floors waxed.
Ma'am, I'm looking
for Doctor Strange.
You're about... five
years too early.
Stephen Strange is currently performing
surgery about twenty blocks that way.
What do you want from him?
That, actually.
Ah.
- I'm afraid not.
- Sorry, but I wasn't asking.
- You don't wanna do this.
- You're right. I don't.
But I need that stone, and
I don't have time to...
Let's start over, shall we?
That's Jane.
All right.
Here's the deal, Tubby:
You're gonna charm her and I'm
gonna poke her with this thing
and extract the Reality Stone
and get gone, lickety-split.
I'll be right back, okay? There's a
wine cellar, that's just down there.
My father used to fish
with a barrel of ale.
- I'll see if the cellar has a couple of...
- Hey! Aren't you drunk enough already?
Who's the fancy broad?
It's my Mother.
She dies today.
Oh. That's today?
I can't do this.
I can't do this.
I shouldn't be here. I shouldn't have come.
This was a bad idea.
- Come here.
- No, no, no. I think I'm having...
- I'm having a panic attack.
- Come here. Right here.
You think you're the only one who lost
people? What do you think we're doing here?
I lost the only
family I ever had.
Quill, Groot, Drax, the chick
with the antenna, all gone.
Now, I get you miss your Mom.
But she's gone. Really gone.
And there are plenty of people
who are only kinda gone.
But you can help them.
So is it too much to ask that you
brush the crumbs outta your beard,
make schmoopy talk to Pretty
Pants, and when she's not looking,
suck out the Infinity Stone and
help me get my family back?
Okay.
- Are you crying?
- No...
Yes!
Get it together!
You can do this.
You can do this.
All right?
- Yes, I can.
- Good.
I can do this.
I can't do this.
Alright, Heartbreaker. She's alone.
This is our shot.
Thor?
Thor!
Alright. Bring it down low.
Right on that line. That's it.
Down, down.
Hey, can we hurry it up?
Guys, chop-chop. Come on.
We're on the clock.
All that, is really helpful.
- Take care, okay?
- Yeah.
Take that stone and come back.
No messing around.
- Hey.
- You got this.
- Let's get it done.
- Yes, sir.
See you back.
You guys watch each other's six.
Yeah.
The coordinates for
Vormir are laid in.
All they have to do
is not fall out.
We're a long way from Budapest.
Okay, so, uhh...
We just wait around for this
Quill guy to show up and
then he leads us to the
Power Stone, is that it?
Let's take cover.
We're not the only ones in
2014 looking for the stones.
Wait a minute, what are
you talking about right
now? Who else is looking
for these stones?
My father, my sister...
- and me.
- And you?
Where are you right now?
- You're welcome.
- I didn't ask for your help.
And yet, you always need it.
Get up.
- Father wants us back on the ship.
- Why?
He's found an Infinity Stone.
- Where?
- On a planet called Morag.
Father's plan is
finally in motion.
- One stone isn't six, Nebula.
- It's a start.
If he gets all of them...
Ronan's located the Power Stone.
I'm dispatching you to his ship.
- He won't like that.
- His alternative is death, then.
Ronan's obsession
clouds his judgement.
We will not fail you, Father.
No, you won't.
I swear...
I will make you proud.
We just, wait around for
this Quill guy to show up,
and then he leads us to the
Power Stone, is that it?
Let's take cover.
We're not the only ones in
2014 looking for the stones.
- Who was that?
- I don't know...
My head is splitting...
I don't know...
Her synaptic drive was
probably damaged in battle.
Bring her to my ship.
Got to hustle, Cap. Things look like
they're just about wrapped up here.
Got it. I'm approaching
the elevator now.
If it's all the same to you...
I'll have that drink now.
All right. Good one. No standing around,
I'm closing up this door for later.
By the way, feel
free to clean up.
Ugh, Mr. Rogers. I almost
forgot that that suit
- did nothing for your ass.
- No one asked you to look.
I think you look great, Cap.
As far as I'm concerned,
that's America's ass.
- Uhh, magic wand?
- STRIKE team's coming to secure it.
We can take that
off your hands.
By all means.
- Careful with that thing!
- Unless you want your mind erased.
- Not in a fun way.
- We promise to be careful.
- Who are these guys?
- They are SHIELD...
Well, actually Hydra. But,
we didn't know that yet.
Seriously, you didn't? I mean...
they look like bad guys.
You're small, but
you're talking loud.
On my way down to
coordinate search and rescue.
On my way down to
coordinate search and rescue!
I mean, honestly! How do
you think you'll be...
Shut up.
All right, you're up, little buddy.
There's our stone.
Alright. Flick me.
- Whoa! Whoa, whoa.
- Hey! Buddy.
What do you think? Maximum
occupancy has been reached.
- Take the stairs!
- Yeah. Stop. Stop!
Take the stairs.
Take the stairs!
All right, Cap. I got our scepter in the
elevator just passing the 80th floor.
On it.
- Head to the lobby.
- Alright. I'll see you there.
Evidence secure. We're
en route to Dr. List.
No. No hitches at all, Mr.
Secretary.
Captain. I thought you were
coordinating search and rescue?
Change of plans.
Hey, Cap.
Rumlow.
I just got a call from the Secretary. I'm
gonna be running point on the scepter.
Sir? I don't understand.
We got word there may be
an attempt to steal it.
Sorry, Cap.
I can't give you the scepter.
- I'm gonna have to call the Director.
- That's okay. Trust me.
Hail Hydra.
So many stairs!
Thumbelina, do you copy?
I've got eyes on the prize.
- It is go-time.
- Bombs away.
Is, is that Axe body spray?
Yeah, I had a can just
for emergencies. Relax.
- Can we focus, please?
- I'm going inside you. Now.
May I ask you
where you're going?
To lunch and then Asgard.
I'm sorry, you are?
Alexander Pierce. He's the man, one
of the folks behind Nick Fury.
My friends call me Mr. Secretary.
I'm gonna have to ask you to
turn that prisoner over to me.
- Loki will be answering to Odin himself.
- Oh, he's gonna answer to us.
Odin can have what's left. And
I'm gonna need that case.
That's been SHIELD property
for over 70 years.
Hand over the case, Stark.
All right, move it, Stuart Little. Things
are getting dicey up here. Let's go.
I'm not gonna argue who's got the
higher authority here, all right?
You promise me you won't die?
You're only giving me a
mild cardiac dysrythmia.
That doesn't sound mild.
I need the case.
I know you got a lotta pull.
I'm just saying...
Okay. Then give me the case.
Do it, Lang!
- Get your hands off!
- Window's closing. Pull my pin!
Here goes!
- Stark?
- Stark!
Look, he's convulsing.
Give him air!
- Medic!
- Medic!
You got some help!
Stark, you--- your
chest machine?
Breathe! Breathe!
Good job. Meet me in the alley.
I'm gonna grab a quick slice.
No stairs!
You'll be fine, Stark.
Stay with us!
I'll try something, okay? I have
no idea if it's gonna work.
Yes!
That worked a treat.
That was so crazy!
I had no idea if
that was gonna work.
- The case...
- The case. It's, uhh...
Where's the case? Where's Loki?
Loki!
- That wasn't supposed to happen, was it?
- Oh, we blew it.
Loki!?
Tony, what's going on?
Tell me you found that cube.
Oh, you gotta be shitting me.
I have eyes on Loki. 14th floor.
I'm not Loki.
And I don't wanna hurt you.
I can do this all day.
Yeah, I know. I know.
Where did you get this?
Bucky... is... alive!
What?
That is America's ass.
- Please, please!
- I'm sorry. I can't help you, Bruce.
If I give up the Time Stone to help
your reality, I'm dooming my own.
With all due respect, I'm not sure
the science really supports that.
The Infinity Stones create what you
experience as the flow of time.
Remove one of the stones,
and that flow splits.
Now this may benefit your reality.
But my new one, not so much.
In this new branched reality, without our
chief weapon against the forces of darkness,
our world will be overrun.
Millions will suffer.
So, tell me, doctor, can your
science prevent all that?
No. But we can erase it.
Because once we're done with the stones, we
can return each one into its own timeline
at the moment it was taken.
So, chronologically...
In that reality....
it never left.
Yes, but you're leaving out
the most important part.
In order to return the
stones, you have to survive.
We will. I will. I promise.
I can't risk this
reality on a promise.
It's the duty, of the Sorcerer
Supreme to protect the Time Stone.
Then why the hell did
Strange give it away?
- What did you say?
- Strange. He gave it away.
He gave it to Thanos.
- Willingly?
- Yes.
- Why?
- I have no idea. Maybe he made a mistake.
Or I did.
Strange was meant to
be the best of us.
So he must've done
it for a reason.
I fear you might be right.
Thank you.
I'm counting on you, Bruce.
We all are.
Run diagnostics.
Show me her memory file.
Sire, the file appears entangled.
It was a memory, but not hers.
There's another consciousness
sharing her network.
Another Nebula.
Impossible.
This duplicate carries a time stamp...
from nine years in the future.
Where is this other Nebula?
In our solar system.
On Morag.
- Can you access her?
- Yes. The two are linked.
Search the duplicate's
memories, for Infinity Stones.
And these stones have been in a lot of
different places throughout history.
Our history. So, not a lot of
convenient spots to just drop in.
- Which means we have to pick our targets.
- Correct.
Freeze image.
Terrans.
Avengers.
Unruly wretches. What's
that reflection?
Amplify this, Maw.
I don't understand.
- Two Nebulas.
- No. The same Nebula.
From two different times.
Set course for Morag. Scan
the duplicate's memories.
I want to see everything.
My ladies, I'll see you after.
Go on.
- What are you doing?
- Ahh!
You're better off leaving the
sneaking to your brother.
Yeah, I was simply just
going for a walk, and uh...
What are you wearing?
I always wear this. This
is one of my favorites.
What's wrong with your eye?
Oh, my eye. That's... you
remember the Battle of Haroquin?
When I got hit in the
face with a broadsword?
You're not the Thor I
know at all, are you?
Yes, I am.
The future hasn't been
kind to you, has it?
I didn't say I'm
from the future.
I was raised by witches, boy.
I see with more than
eyes, and you know that.
I am totally, totally
from the future!
Yes, you are.
- I really need to talk to you.
- We can talk.
His head was over there...
His body over there...
What was the point.
I was too late.
I was just standing there.
- Some idiot with an ax.
- You're no idiot.
You're here aren't you? Seeking counsel
from the wisest person in Asgard.
- I guess, yeah.
- Idiot? No.
- A failure? Absolutely.
- That's a little bit harsh.
You do know what
that makes you?
Just like everyone else.
I'm not supposed to be
like everyone else, am I?
Everyone fails at who they
are supposed to be, Thor.
The measure of a
person, of a hero
is how well they succeed
at being who they are.
I really missed you, Mum.
Thor! I got it!
Get that rabbit!
- Ma, I have to tell you something.
- No, son. You don't.
You're here to repair
your future, not mine.
- But this is about your future.
- It's none of my business.
Hey.
You must be Mom.
I got the thing. Come
on, we got to move.
- I wish we had more time.
- This was a gift.
And you're going to be the
man you're meant to be.
- I love you, Mom.
- I love you.
And eat a salad.
- Come on. We gotta go.
- Goodbye.
- Three... two...
- No, wait!
Wh- what am I looking at?
Oh, sometimes it takes a second.
I'm still worthy.
Oh, boy.
Goodbye, Mom.
So he's an idiot?
What's that?
The tool of a thief.
Whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa...
This is the part where spikes come out,
with skeletons on the end and everything...
What are you talking about?
When you break into a place called
the temple of the Power Stone,
There's gonna be a bunch of booby
traps--- Okay. All right. Go ahead.
I wasn't always like this.
Me either.
But we work with
what we got, right?
Sync up.
Three.. two.. one...
You murdered trillions!
You should be grateful.
- Where are the stones?
- Gone.
- Reduced to atoms.
- You used them two days ago.
I used the stones to destroy the stones.
It nearly killed me.
But the work is done.
It always will be.
I am inevitable.
- What did you do to them?
- Nothing. Yet.
They're not trying to stop something
I'm going to do in our time.
They're trying to undo something
I've already done in theirs.
The stones...
I found them all.
I won.
Tipped the cosmic
scales to balance.
This is your future.
It's my destiny.
My father is many things. A
liar is not one of them.
Thank you, Daughter.
Perhaps I treated
you too harshly...
And that, is destiny fulfilled.
Sire, your Daughter...
No...
...is a traitor.
That's not me. It's not. I could never...
I would never betray you. Never.
I know.
And you'll have the
chance to prove it.
No...
He knows!
Barton? Barton, come in.
Romanoff? Come in, we have a problem.
Come on!
Come in, we have a prob....
Thanos knows.
Thanos...
Cap...
Sorry, buddy.
We got a problem.
Huh. Yeah, we do.
- Well, what are we gonna do now?
- You know what, give me a break, Steve.
I just got hit in the
head with a Hulk.
You said that we had one shot.
This, this was our shot.
We shot it. It's shot. Six stones or nothing.
Six stones or nothing.
You're repeating yourself, you know that?
You're repeating yourself.
You're repeating yourself.
You're repeating yourself.
- No!
- Come on.
You never wanted a time heist, you
went on board with the time heist...
- I dropped the ball.
- You ruined the time heist.
- Is that what I did?
- Yeah!
Are there any other options
with the Tesseract?
No, no, no. There's
no other options.
There's no do-overs. We're
not going anywhere else.
We have one particle left. Each.
That's it, alright? We use that...
Bye, bye. You're not going home.
Yeah, well if we don't try...
then no one else is
going home, either.
I got it.
There's another way. To retake the
Tesseract and acquire new particles.
We'll stroll down memory lane.
Military installation, Garden State.
Why were they both there?
They were there at a...I've
a vaguely exact idea.
How vague?
What are you talking about?
Where are we going?
- I know for a fact they were there...
- Who's they?
- What are we doing?
- And I know how I know.
Guys, what's up? What is it?
Well, it looks like
we're improvising.
- Right.
- What are we improvising?
Scott, get this back
to the compound.
Suit up.
What's in New Jersey?
- 0-4, 0-4...
- Uhh, 0-7.
- 0-7.
- Excuse me...
1-9-7-0.
- Are you sure?
- Cap. Captain. Steve, sorry.
America. Rogers. Look,
if you do this,
and this doesn't work,
you're not coming back.
Thanks for the pep
talk, pissant.
You trust me?
I do.
Your call.
Here we go.
Hey, man!
Make love, not war!
Clearly, you weren't
actually born here, right?
The idea of me was.
Right. Well, imagine
you're SHIELD, running a
quasi-fascistic
intelligence organization.
Where do you hide it?
In plain sight.
Good luck on your
mission, Captain.
Good luck on your
project, doctor.
You're new here?
Not exactly.
Gotcha.
Back in the game.
Arnim, you in there?
Arnim?
Hey!
The door's this way, pal.
Oh, yeah.
I'm looking for Dr. Zola.
Have you seen him?
Yeah, no, Dr. Zol... No,
I haven't seen a soul.
Pardon me.
Do I know you?
No, sir. I'm, a...
visitor from MIT.
Huh. MIT.
Got a name?
Howard.
Well that'll be
easy to remember.
Howard...
...Potts.
Well, I'm Howard Stark.
Hi.
Shit. Now, don't pull it.
Yeah...
You look a little green around
the gills there, Potts.
I'm fine. Just, long hours.
Wanna get some air?
- Hello, Potts.
- Yeah. That would be swell.
- That way.
- Okay.
Need your briefcase?
You're not one of
those, are ya, Potts?
- Hello.
- Dr. Pym?
That would be the number
that you called. Yes.
This is Capt. Stevens
from shipping.
- We have a package for you.
- Bring it up.
Well, that's the thing, sir.
We can't.
I'm confused. I thought
that was your job.
Well, it's just... Sir,
the box is glowing and,
to be honest, some of our mail
guys aren't feeling that great.
They didn't know
better, did they?
Yeah, they did. You
better get down here.
Excuse me. Out of the way!
So, flowers and sauerkraut. You
got a big date tonight?
My wife's expecting.
And, uh... Too much
time in the office.
- Congratulations.
- Thanks. Hold this, will you?
Yeah, sure.
- How far along is she?
- I don't know... uh...
She's at the point where she can't
stand the sound of my chewing.
I guess I'll be eating
dinner in the pantry again.
I have a little girl.
A girl would be nice. Less of a chance
she'd turn out exactly like me.
What'd be so awful about that?
Let's just say that the greater
good has rarely outweighed
my own self-interests.
- And you've never seen these 2 men before?
- No, I've got an eye for this.
- The 2 of them looked fishy.
- Can you describe them?
- Well, one of them had a hippie beard.
- Hippie? Like Bee Gees or Mungo Jerry?
Definitely Mungo Jerry.
Yeah, this is Chesler. I
need every available MPs
on sub-level 6. We have
a potential breach.
So, where are you
at with names?
Well, if it's a boy,
my wife likes Almanzo.
Might wanna let that stew on.
You got time.
Let me ask you a question.
When your kid was born...
- were you nervous?
- Wildly. Yeah.
Did you feel qualified?
Like you had any idea how to
successfully operate that thing?
I literally pieced it
together as I went along,
I thought about what
my Dad did, and...
My old man, he never met a problem
he couldn't solve with a belt.
I thought my Dad
was tough on me.
And now, looking back, I just
remember the good stuff, you know.
- He did drop the odd pearl.
- Yeah? Like what?
"No amount of money ever
bought a second of time."
Smart guy.
He did his best.
Let me tell you. That
kid's not even here yet
and, there's nothing I
wouldn't do for him.
Good to meet you, Potts.
Yeah, Howard...
Everything's gonna be all right.
Thank you for everything...
...you've done for
this country.
Jarvis.
Have we ever met that guy?
Seems very familiar.
Weird beard, though.
- You're weak.
- I'm you.
You can stop this.
You know you want to.
Did you see what
happens in the future?
Thanos finds the Soul Stone.
You wanna know
how he does that?
You wanna know, what
he does to you?
That's enough.
You disgust me.
But, that doesn't
mean you're useless.
How do I look?
Wow...
Under different circumstances,
this would be totally awesome.
I bet the raccoon didn't
have to climb a mountain.
Technically, he's not
a raccoon, you know.
Whatever. He eats garbage.
Welcome.
Natasha, daughter of Ivan.
Clint, son of Edith.
Who are you?
Consider me a guide.
To you, and to all who
seek the Soul Stone.
Okay. You tell us where it is.
Then we'll be on our way.
If only it were that easy.
What you seek lies
in front of you...
...as does what you fear.
The stone is down there.
For one of you.
For the other...
In order to take the stone, you
must lose that which you love.
An everlasting exchange.
A soul, for a soul.
How's it going?
Jesus...
Maybe he's making this shit up.
No. I don't think so.
Why, 'cause he knows
your Daddy's name?
I didn't.
Thanos left here with the stone
without his daughter.
It's not a coincidence.
Yeah.
Whatever it takes.
Whatever it takes.
If we don't get that stone,
billions of people stay dead.
Then I guess we both
know who it's gotta be.
I guess we do.
I'm starting to think, we've been
different people here, Natasha.
For the last five years I've been trying
to do one thing: Get to right here.
That's all it's been about.
Bringing everybody back.
- Oh, don't you get all decent on me now.
- What, you think I wanna do it?
I'm trying to save
your life, you idiot.
Yeah well, I don't want
you to, because I...
Natasha, you know
what I've done.
You know what I've become.
I don't judge people on
their worst mistakes.
Maybe you should.
You didn't.
You're a pain in my
ass, you know that?
Okay.
You win.
Tell my family I love them.
You tell them yourself.
Damn you!
Let me go.
No.
Please, no.
It's okay.
Please...
Did we get them all?
You telling me this'll
actually work?
Clint, where's Nat?
Do we know if she had family?
Yeah. Us.
What?
I just asked him a question...
Yeah, you're acting like she's dead.
Why are we acting like she's dead?
We have the stones, right?
As long as we have
the stones, Cap, we can bring
her back, isn't that right?
So stop this shit. We're the
Avengers, get it together.
We can't get her back.
- Wha- what?
- It can't be undone. It can't.
I'm sorry. No offense, but you're
a very earthly being. Okay?
We're talking about space magic.
And "can't" seems very () don't you think?
Look, I know that I'm way
outside my paygrade here.
But she still isn't
here, is she?
- Now that's my point.
- It can't be undone.
Or that's at least what the,
great floating guy had to say.
Maybe you wanna go talk to him?
Okay?
Go grab your hammer, and you
go fly and you talk to him.
It was supposed to be me.
She sacrificed her life for that
goddamned stone. She bet her life on it.
She's not coming back.
We have to make it worth it.
We have to.
We will.
Boom!
All right. The glove's ready.
Question is, who's gonna
snap their freaking fingers?
I'll do it.
It's okay.
- No, no, no, no. Stop. Stop.
- Hey, hey...
Thor, just wait.
We haven't decided who's
gonna put that on yet.
I'm sorry. What, were you just sitting
around waiting for the right opportunity?
We should at least discuss it.
Look, us sitting here staring at that
thing is not gonna bring everybody back.
I'm the strongest Avenger, okay? So
this responsibility falls upon me.
It's my duty. It's not that... It's...
stop it! Just let me.
Just let me do it. Just
let me do something good.
- Something great.
- Look...
It's not just the fact that
that glove is channeling
enough energy to light up a
continent, I'm telling you
you're in no condition.
What do you think is coursing
through my veins right now?
Cheez Whiz?
- Lightning.
- Yeah.
Lightning won't help you, pal.
It's gotta be me.
You saw what those stones did to Thanos.
It almost killed him.
None of you could survive.
How do we know you will?
I don't. But the
radiation's mostly gamma.
It's like...
I was meant for this.
Good to go, yeah?
Let's do it.
You remember everyone
Thanos snapped away five
years ago and just bringing
them back to now, today.
Don't change anything
from the last five years.
Got it.
Friday, do me a favor and
activate protocol 8.
Yes, boss.
Everybody comes home.
- Take it off. Take it off!
- No, wait. Bruce, are you okay?
Talk to me, Banner.
I'm okay. I'm okay.
Bruce!
Don't move him.
- Did it work?
- Worth a shot. It's over. It's okay.
Honey.
Honey.
Guys...
I think it worked!
I can't breathe. I can't breathe!
I can't breathe.
Canopy. Canopy. Canopy.
Rhodey, Rocket, get outta here!
Hurry up! Hurry up!
Come on!
Rhodey!
Mayday, mayday! Does anybody copy? We're
in the lower level, it's flooding!
- What?
- We're drowning! Does anybody copy? Mayday!
Wait! I'm here! I'm
here, can you hear me?
Cap?
Daughter.
Yes, Father.
So, this is the future.
Well done.
Thank you, Father. They
suspected nothing.
The arrogant never do.
Go.
Find the stones.
Bring them to me.
What will you do?
Wait.
Tell me something.
In the future, what
happens to you and me?
I tried to kill you.
Several times.
But eventually,
we become friends.
We become sisters.
Come on.
We can stop him.
Come on, buddy. Wake up.
That's my man.
You lose this again,
I'm keeping it.
What happened?
We messed with time.
It tends to mess back.
You'll see.
What's he been doing?
Absolutely nothing.
Where are the stones?
Lost somewhere under all this.
All I know is he
doesn't have them.
So we keep it that way.
- You know it's a trap, right?
- Yeah...
I don't much care.
Good.
Just as long as we're
all in agreement.
Let's kill him
properly this time.
You could not live
with your own failure.
Where did that bring you?
Back to me.
I thought by eliminating
half of life,
the other half would thrive.
But you've shown me,
that's impossible.
And as long as there are those
that remember what was,
there will always be those that
are unable to accept what can be.
They will resist.
Yep. We're all
kinds of stubborn.
I'm thankful.
Because now, I know
what I must do.
I will shred this universe
down to its last atom.
And then...
With the stones you've collected
for me, create a new one.
Teeming with life,
but knows not what it has lost
but only what it has been given.
A grateful universe.
Born out of blood.
They'll never know it.
Because you won't be
alive to tell them.
See you on the other side, man.
Hang on! I'm coming!
Oh, hey...
I know you.
Father. I have the stones.
What?!
Stop.
You're betraying us?
You don't have to do this.
I am... this.
No, you're not.
You've seen what we become.
Nebula, listen to her.
You can change.
He won't let me.
No!
Okay, Thor. Hit me.
Boss, wake up.
I knew it!
In all my years of conquest...
violence...
slaughter...
It was never personal.
But I'll tell you now...
what I'm about to do
to your stubborn,
annoying little planet...
I'm gonna enjoy it.
Very, very much.
Cap, you hear me?
Cap, it's Sam.
Can you hear me?
On your left.
Is that everyone?
What, you wanted more?
Avengers...
... assemble.
No, no. Give me that.
You have the little one.
Hey!
Holy cow.
You will not believe what's been going on.
Do you remember when we were in space?
And I got all dusty? I must've passed
out, 'cause I woke up, and you were gone.
But Doctor Strange was there, right?
He was like,
"It's been five years.
Come on, they need us!"
And then he started doing the yellow
sparkly thing that he does all the time...
What are you doing?
This is nice.
Gamora?
I thought I lost you.
Don't... touch... me!
You missed the first time...
then you got them
both the second time.
This is the one? Seriously?
The choices were him, or a tree.
Cap, what do you want me to
do with this damn thing?
Get those stones as
far away as possible!
No!
We need to get them back
where they came from.
No way to get them back. Thanos
destroyed the quantum tunnel.
Hold on!
That wasn't our
only time machine.
Anyone see an ugly
brown van up there?
Yes!
But you're not gonna
like where it's parked.
Scott, how long you need
to get that thing working?
Maybe ten minutes.
Get it started. We'll
get the stones to you.
We're on it, Cap.
Hey.
You said one out of 14
million, we win, yeah?
Tell me this is it.
If I tell you what
happens, it won't happen.
You better be right.
It's a mess back here.
It's... it's dead.
- What?
- It's dead.
I have to hotwire it.
Where's Nebula?
She's not responding.
Sire!
Clint!
Give it to me.
You took everything from me.
I don't even know who you are.
You will.
I got it!
Activate Instant Kill!
Rain fire!
But Sire, our troops!
Just do it!
Is anyone else seeing this?
I got this.
I got this!
Okay, I don't got this.
- Help! Somebody, help!
- Hey, Queens. Heads up.
Hang on. I got you, kid.
Hey! Nice to meet---
Oh! My God!
What the hell is this?
Friday, what are they firing at?
Something just entered
the upper atmosphere.
Oh, yeah!
Danvers, we need an assist here.
Hi. I'm Peter Parker.
Hey, Peter Parker. Got
something for me?
I don't know how you're
gonna get through all that.
Don't worry.
She's got help.
I am... inevitable.
And I...
am...
... Iron Man.
Mr. Stark?
Hey...
Mr. Stark? Can you hear me?
It's Peter.
We won.
Mr. Stark....
We won, Mr. Stark.
We won and you did it, sir.
You did it.
I'm sorry... Tony...
- Hey.
- Hey, Pep...
- Friday?
- Life functions critical.
Tony.
Look at me.
We're gonna be okay.
You can rest now.
Everybody wants a
happy ending, right?
But it doesn't always
roll that way.
Maybe this time.
I'm hoping if you
play this back,
it's in celebration.
I hope families are reunited,
I hope we get it back,
and something like a
normal version of the
planet has been restored.
If there ever was such a thing.
God, what a world.
Universe, now.
If you told me ten years
ago that we weren't alone,
let alone, you know,
to this extent,
I mean, I wouldn't have been surprised.
But come on, you know?
That epic forces of darkness and
light that have come into play.
And, for better or worse,
that's the reality Morgan's gonna
have to find a way to grow up in.
So I found the time and I
recorded a little greeting...
In the case of an untimely death.
On my part.
Not that, death in any
time isn't untimely.
This time travel thing that we're
gonna try and pull off tomorrow,
it's, it's got me scratching
my head about this.
But then again, that's the hero gig.
Part of the journey is the end.
Everything's gonna work out
exactly the way it's supposed to.
I love you 3,000.
You know, I wish
there was a way...
that I could let her know.
That we won.
We did it.
She knows.
They both do.
How you doing, Squirt?
- Good.
- You good?
- Okay. You hungry?
- Mm-hmm.
- What do you want?
- Cheeseburgers.
You know your Dad
liked cheeseburgers?
I'm gonna get you all the
cheeseburgers you want.
Okay.
So, when can we expect you back?
- About that...
- Thor. Your people need a king.
No, they already have one.
That's funny.
You're being serious?
It's time for me to be
who I am rather than
who I'm supposed to be.
But you, you're a leader.
That's who you are.
You know I'd make a lot
of changes around here.
I'm counting on it.
Your Majesty.
What will you do?
I'm not sure.
For the first time in a
thousand years, I...
I have no path. I do
have a ride, though.
Move it or lose it, hairbag.
Well, here we are.
Tree! Good to see you.
Well...
The As-Guardians of the
Galaxy back together again.
Where to first?
Just so you know, this is my ship still.
I'm in charge.
I know. I know. Of
course, you are.
Of course.
See, you say of course, but
then you touch the map.
It makes you think that maybe you
didn't realize I was in charge.
Quail, that's your own
insecurities in there. Okay?
I'm merely trying to be of service.
An assistant.
- Quill.
- That's what I said.
You should fight one another
for the honor of leadership.
Sounds fair.
- It's not necessary.
- It's not.
Okay?
I got some blasters unless
you guys wanna use knives.
Oh, yes. Please, use knives.
I am Groot.
Not necessary.
There shall be no
knifing one another.
Everybody knows who's in charge.
It's me.
Yes, you! Of course!
Of course. Of course.
Remember...
You have to return the stones at
the exact moment you got them.
Or you're gonna open up a bunch
of nasty alternative realities.
Don't worry, Bruce.
Clip all the branches.
You know, I tried.
When I had the gauntlet, the stones,
I really tried to bring her back.
- I miss them, man.
- Me, too.
You know, if you want,
I can come with you.
You're a good man, Sam.
This one's on me, though.
Don't do anything stupid
'till I get back.
How can I? You're taking
all the stupid with you.
Gonna miss you, Buddy.
It's gonna be okay, Buck.
How long is this gonna take?
For him? As long as he
needs, For us, five seconds.
Ready, Cap?
Alright. We'll meet
you back here, okay?
You bet.
Going quantum. Three..
two.. one...
And returning in, five,
four, three, two, one...
Where is he?
I don't know. He blew right by his
time stamp. He should be here.
- Well, get him back.
- I'm trying.
- Get him the hell back.
- I said, I'm trying!
Sam.
Go ahead.
Cap?
Hi, Sam.
So did something go wrong,
or did something go right?
Well, after I put the
stones back, I thought...
Maybe I'll try some
of that life Tony was...
telling me to get.
How did that work out for you?
It was beautiful.
I'm happy for you. Truly.
Thank you.
Only thing bumming me
out is the fact I have
to live in a world
without Captain America.
Oh...
That reminds me...
Try it on.
How's it feel?
Like it's someone else's.
It isn't.
Thank you.
I'll do my best.
That's why it's yours.
You wanna tell me about her?
No.
No, I don't think I will.

         <title> 1 DECEMBER 2018 FINAL SHOOTING SCRIPTJOKER an originwritten byTodd Phillips &amp; Scott Silver This story takes place in its own universe. It has no connection to any of the DC films that have come before it.We see it as a classic Warner Bros. movie. Gritty, intimate and oddly funny, the characters live in the real world and the stakes are personal.Although it is never mentioned in the film, this story takes place in the past.Let&#39;s call it 1981.It&#39;s a troubled time. The crime rate in Gotham is at record highs. A garbage strike has crippled the city for the past six weeks. And the divide between the &quot;haves&quot; and the &quot;have- nots&quot; is palpable. Dreams are beyond reach, slipping into delusions.TP/SSii HEAR LAUGHTER.The sound of a man totally cracking up.INT. DEPT. OF HEALTH, OFFICE - MORNINGOVER BLACK:FADE IN:CLOSE ON ARTHUR (30&#39;s), tears in his eyes from laughing so hard. He&#39;s trying to get it under control. His greasy, black hair hanging down over his forehead. He&#39;s wearing an old, faded green cardigan sweater, a threadbare gray scarf, thin from years of use, hangs loosely around his neck.He&#39;s sitting across from an overworked SOCIAL WORKER (50&#39;s), African American. Her office is cramped and run-down in a cramped and run-down building. Stacks of folders piled high in front of her.She just sits behind her desk, waiting for his laughing fit to end, she&#39;s been through this before. Finally it subsides.Arthur takes a deep breath, pauses to see if it&#39;s over. Beat.ARTHUR--is it just me, or is it gettingcrazier out there?Despite the laughter, there&#39;s real pain in his eyes.Something broken in him. Looks like he hasn&#39;t slept in days. Beat.SOCIAL WORKERIt&#39;s certainly tense. People areupset, they&#39;re struggling. Looking for work. The garbage strike seems like it&#39;s been going on forever. These are tough times.(then)How &#39;bout you. Have you been keeping up with your journal?ARTHUR Everyday.SOCIAL WORKERGreat. Did you bring it with you? Beat.ARTHUR (dodging the subject)I&#39;m sorry. Did I bring what?SOCIAL WORKER (impatient; she doesn&#39;thave time for this)Arthur, last time I asked you to bring your journal with you. For these appointments. Do you have it?ARTHUR Yes ma&#39;am.SOCIAL WORKER Can I see it?He reluctantly reaches into the pocket of his jacket hanging on the chair behind him. Pulls out a weathered notebook. Slides it across to her--ARTHURI&#39;ve been using it as a journal,but also a joke diary. Funny thoughts or, or observations-- Did I tell you I&#39;m pursuing a career in stand-up comedy?She&#39;s half-listening as she flips through his journal.SOCIAL WORKER No. You didn&#39;t.ARTHUR I think I did.She doesn&#39;t respond, keeps flipping through his journal--PAGES AND PAGES OF NOTES, neat, angry-looking handwriting. Also, cut out photos from hardcore pornographic magazines and some crude handmade drawings.A flash of anger crosses Arthur&#39;s face--ARTHURI didn&#39;t realize you wanted to readit.The social worker gives him a look, then reads something in the pages that gives her pause--2. SOCIAL WORKER (reading out loud)&quot;I just hope my death makes more cents than my life.&quot;She looks up at Arthur. He just stares back. Lets it hang out there for a beat.Then he laughs a little, even though he doesn&#39;t think it&#39;s funny--ARTHURYeah. I mean, that&#39;s just--SOCIAL WORKERDoes my reading it upset you?He leans in.ARTHURNo. I just,-- some of it&#39;spersonal. You know?SOCIAL WORKERI understand. I just want to makesure you&#39;re keeping up with it.She slides his journal back to him. He holds it in his lap.SOCIAL WORKERHow does it feel to have to comehere? Does it help having someone to talk to?ARTHURI think I felt better when I waslocked up, in the hospital.SOCIAL WORKERAnd have you thought more about whyyou were “locked up?&quot;ARTHURWell I suppose I was mentally ill.SOCIAL WORKER How’s that?ARTHURWell my mother thought I wasmentally ill, so she had me committed.3. SOCIAL WORKER Did you feel mentally ill?ARTHURThey’ve been saying that since Iwas little. So who knows. Long pause.ARTHURI was wondering if you could askthe doctor to increase my medication.The social worker ruffles through some papers--Beat.SOCIAL WORKERArthur, you’re on seven differentmedications. Surely they must be doing something.ARTHURI just don’t want to feel so badanymore.And we HEAR &quot;TEMPTATION RAG&quot; playing on a broken down piano--EXT. GOTHAM SQUARE, MIDTOWN - AFTERNOON - DAYS LATERCLOSE ON ARTHUR, NOW DRESSED UP AS A CLOWN, painted white face... Wide red smile outlined in black around his mouth... Bulbous red nose... Bald cap with two patches of frizzy green hair sticking out over the ears, little bowler hat... Too- tight buttoned jacket... Baggy pants and oversized colored shoes. This is his job.PULLING OUT, we see he&#39;s holding a sign in front of Kenny&#39;s Music Shop that reads, &quot;EVERYTHING MUST GO!&quot; A banner above the store reads, &quot;GOING OUT OF BUSINESS!&quot; Behind him, an OLD MAN plays an old piano on the busy street, garbage bags piled everywhere.Arthur&#39;s doing a little Charlie Chaplin like performance to the music, twirling the sign, bringing attention to the sale. He&#39;s pretty good, feeling the music in his bones, light on his feet. Still most people walk right past, ignoring him.ARTHUR SEES A GROUP OF BOYS pointing at him from down the street, laughing at him... One of the boys throws an empty Coke can at Arthur as they get close... Arthur holds up the sign like a shield, Coke can bouncing off it--4.   The boys walk up on Arthur... He tries ignoring them, keeps dancing to the old ragtime, holding up the sign as they surround him... One of the kids knocks the sign out of Arthur&#39;s hands--The other kids crack up. Arthur bends over to pick up his sign and... Kicks it... Attempts to pick it up again and... Kicks it again... It&#39;s a bit.Arthur bends over a third time to pick up the sign and... One of the boys kicks him right in the ass--Arthur falls face first onto the sidewalk. Oddly, the old man playing the piano picks up the pace of the music--The kids crack up. One of the boys grabs Arthur&#39;s sign and takes off running across the street--The other kids follow, weaving through traffic--Arthur gets up and gives chase.

They&#39;re loud and obnoxious, clearly drunk. One of them is eating some french fries out of a greasy McDonald&#39;s bag. He flops down on the bench across from the young woman, and checks her out. The other two guys start getting into it with each other--WALL STREET #1--I&#39;m telling you, she wanted mynumber. We should have just stayed. The train starts moving again...WALL STREET #2You&#39;re dreaming, man. She wasn&#39;tinterested-- at all.WALL STREET #1Are you nuts? Did you see how closewe were dancing!?

Wall Street #2 takes a swig from the brown bag he is carrying.WALL STREET #2She couldn&#39;t wait to get away fromyou.Arthur&#39;s watching them closely, impressed by their confidence and easy-going camaraderie.WALL STREET #1 (to the third guy)Ryan, am I crazy? Tell him what you saw.28. But the third Wall Street guy isn&#39;t paying his friends any attention. He has his eyes set on the young woman sitting across from him, reading her book.WALL STREET #3 (to the girl)Hey. You want some french fries?He holds out his McDonald&#39;s bag and shakes it to get her attention. The other two share a look. Arthur watches from his seat.WALL STREET #3Hello? I&#39;m talking to you. You wantsome fries?She looks up and shakes her head, polite smile.YOUNG WOMAN No thank you.The other two guys crack up at this apparent blow-off. The third Wall Street guy shakes his head, embarrassed, and starts softly flinging fries at the young woman.WALL STREET #3You sure? They&#39;re really good.She just buries her face deeper in her book--WALL STREET #2Don&#39;t ignore him. He&#39;s being niceto you.One of the french fries lands in her hair. She looks down toward Arthur, looking to see if he&#39;s going to do something or say something--Arthur just sits there nervous. Not sure what to do, or even if he wants to do anything at all.AND HE JUST BURSTS OUT LAUGHING. He covers his mouth with his wig as they continue to harass the woman.They all look over-- What the fuck is this clown laughing at? WALL STREET #1Something funny, asshole?With their attention diverted, the young woman rushes out through the door between subway cars, glancing back at Arthur before she goes--29. WALL STREET #3 (shouts after her)BITCH!He laughs even harder through his green wig. The Wall Street guys turn to him sitting by himself at the end of the car--Arthur sees them staring.

Don&#39;t.WALL STREET #1 (continues singing to him)Isn&#39;t it bliss?Don&#39;t you approve?One who keeps tearing around, One who can&#39;t move.Arthur starts to get up-- The lead guy pulls him back down.WALL STREET #1Where are the clowns? There ought to be clowns.As he finishes the song, Arthur&#39;s laughing fit is coming to an end. One of the other guys sits down on the other side of him. He&#39;s now sandwiched in between them--WALL STREET #2So tell us, buddy. What&#39;s sofucking funny?30. ARTHURNothing. I have a condition--Arthur reaches into his shopping bag to get one of his &quot;Forgive my laughter&quot; cards, the third guy sees him reaching and tries to grab the bag from him---Arthur pulls on it--ARTHURNo. It&#39;s just my stuff.

My fault I fear...Arthur grabs the green wig from between the two dead bodies, blood everywhere, and stuffs it into his shopping bag--The subway doors wheeze open and Arthur steps halfway off the train, waiting to see if the third Wall Street guy gets off in the car ahead of him.

Glancing into the room he sees it&#39;s a pretty good crowd. Sees Sophie taking a seat in the back.Wheeling back into the stairway, he catches his breath in the shadows--40.

He continues to slow dance with himself for a moment-- He notices the envelope on the table, addressed to Thomas Wayne.He stares at it for a beat. Cranes his neck toward his mother&#39;s bedroom, listening if she&#39;s still awake. And then--Quietly rips it open, starts to read the letter:CLOSE ON WORDS, &quot;Dearest Thomas, I don&#39;t know where else toturn...&quot;&quot;We need your help...&quot; &quot;Your son and I need help&quot; Stops reading, stays on-- &quot;Your son&quot;He glances up at his mother&#39;s room, then back down at the words, &quot;Your son&quot;44.

METRO TRAIN (MOVING) - COUNTRYSIDE, OUTSIDE GOTHAM - AFTERNOONPUSHING PAST ROWS AND ROWS OF WHITE BUSINESSMEN, many of them reading one of Gotham&#39;s two tabloids.

The other cover screams, &quot;KILL THE RICH -- A NEW MOVEMENT?&quot;...WE PUSH PAST A &quot;KILLER CLOWN&quot; SKETCH, settle in on Arthur reading the tabloid.REVERSE ANGLE BEHIND ARTHUR, see the headline &quot;Thomas Wayne Announces Run -- Response to Troubled Times&quot;, over campaign- style photograph of Thomas Wayne waving to a crowd standing next to his wife, MARTHA (50&#39;s), a well-preserved former model, and a glimpse of their son, BRUCE WAYNE (10), hiding behind his father. Only catch half of his face looking straight into camera, eyes wide, scared by the crowd.SUB-HEADLINE READS, &quot;Protest Planned at Wayne Hall Gala.&quot; Arthur stares at the family photo.CLOSE ON WAYNE FAMILY PHOTO, Arthur&#39;s fingers ripping it out of the paper--47.       EXT. WAYNE MANOR, FRONT LAWN - SUNSETArthur walks down a small hill alongside an intimidating brick wall, surrounding the estate like a prison. From this angle he&#39;s able to peer over the wall, catching a glimpse of an innocent looking TEN-YEAR-OLD BOY tracking him from behind the trees, hiding as he follows.Arthur comes to the front. A giant, wrought iron gate. We see a long driveway that leads to the big house, surrounded by beautiful trees and plush, green grounds.Arthur stops.He sees the boy approach, but not get too close.Arthur reaches into his pocket and pulls out a magic wand-- He holds it up for the boy to see.The boy steps up to get a closer look.Arthur looks over the wand, pretending like he&#39;s trying to figure out what it does. He waves the wand over the front gate lock to &quot;try and see&quot; if it will open-- It doesn&#39;t.The little boy tentatively walks toward the fence, face like an angel.Arthur waits until he gets closer and then reaches his hand through the fence and hands the kid his magic wand so he can try and figure out what it does--The boy takes the wand and it goes limp in his hand before he can wave it-- He looks at it, confused. He hands it back to Arthur.Arthur straightens the wand back out, and reaches in through the fence again so the kid can give it another try.And again the wand droops in the boy&#39;s hand. Disappointed, he gives it back to Arthur--Arthur examines the wand as if its &quot;broken&quot;, stiffens it one last time, crouches down lower, and...Ta-da! A bouquet of flowers bursts out the end of the wand-- Arthur hands the boy the wand bouquet of flowers--The little boy takes the flowers. Keeps staring at Arthur, not sure what to do or say. Not smiling.Arthur looks back at him for a moment.48. THEN REACHES BOTH HANDS THROUGH THE GATE and firmly takes the little boy&#39;s face in his hands--Uses his thumbs to hook the corners of the boy&#39;s mouth and pulls them up into a smile, into a &quot;comedy mask&quot;--The boy is okay with it, puts his hands on top of Arthur&#39;s hands. They look at each other for a beat.ALFRED (OS) (shouting)Bruce!Arthur lets go. The boy is now smiling on his own--ALFRED (OS)Bruce! What are you doing? Get awayfrom that man.Little Bruce stops smiling, steps back from the gate.Arthur looks up and sees a tired-looking, ALFRED PENNYWORTH (50&#39;s) bounding toward them.Arthur stands back up.ALFRED (still shouting)What are you doing? Who are you?Bruce runs behind Alfred, hiding behind his legs.ARTHURI&#39;m here to see Mr. Wayne--ALFRED (interrupting)You shouldn&#39;t be talking to his son. Why did you give him those flowers?Alfred takes the flower-wand away from the kid--ARTHURI, I was just trying to make himsmile.He hands it back to Arthur.ALFREDWell it&#39;s not funny. Do I need tocall the police?49.  ARTHURNo, please. My mother&#39;s name isPenny Fleck. She used to work here, years ago. Can you tell Mr. Wayne that I need to see him?ALFRED(color drains from hisface; beat) You&#39;re her son?ARTHUR Did you know her?Alfred doesn&#39;t say anything.Arthur puts his face right up against the bars, whispers so the boy can&#39;t hear him--ARTHURI know about the two of them. Mymother told me everything.ALFREDThere&#39;s nothing to know. There isno &quot;them&quot;. Your mother was, was delusional. She was a sick woman.ARTHURNo. No, just let me speak to Mr.Wayne.Now Alfred leans in closer to Arthur, almost looks like he feels some pity for him--Beat.ALFREDPlease just go, before you make afool of yourself.ARTHUR (blurts out)Thomas Wayne is my father--Alfred looks at Arthur, and can&#39;t help but crack up laughing at him.AND ARTHUR REACHES HIS HANDS THROUGH THE BARS AGAIN AND GRABS HIM. Pulls Alfred in close, trying to choke him, still holding the wand of flowers in one hand--AS HE CHOKES ALFRED, Arthur sees little Bruce, wide-eyed in the shadows, looking out at him in horror.50.

Before he closes the drawer, he notices some old photographs of his mother. Sees one that makes him stop. He pulls it out--ANGLE ON BLACK &amp; WHITE PHOTOGRAPH OF A YOUNG PENNY, laughing at something or someone out of frame. She looks so young and beautiful and happy.

Somehow it&#39;s the exact same room Joker imagined his mother was in some 30 years ago.

A weathered notebook is on the table in front of him. Finally, Joker stops himself.CUT TO BLACK.FADE IN:  HOSPITAL DOCTOR What&#39;s so funny?He takes a deep breath, his eyes are glazed over.

         <description><![CDATA[<div> 1 DECEMBER 2018 FINAL SHOOTING SCRIPT<br>JOKER an origin<br>written by<br>Todd Phillips &amp; Scott Silver<br><br> This story takes place in its own universe. It has no connection to any of the DC films that have come before it.<br>We see it as a classic Warner Bros. movie. Gritty, intimate and oddly funny, the characters live in the real world and the stakes are personal.<br>Although it is never mentioned in the film, this story takes place in the past.<br>Let's call it 1981.<br>It's a troubled time. The crime rate in Gotham is at record highs. A garbage strike has crippled the city for the past six weeks. And the divide between the "haves" and the "have- nots" is palpable. Dreams are beyond reach, slipping into delusions.<br>TP/SS<br>ii<br><br> HEAR LAUGHTER.<br>The sound of a man totally cracking up.<br>INT. DEPT. OF HEALTH, OFFICE - MORNING<br>OVER BLACK:<br>FADE IN:<br>CLOSE ON ARTHUR (30's), tears in his eyes from laughing so hard. He's trying to get it under control. His greasy, black hair hanging down over his forehead. He's wearing an old, faded green cardigan sweater, a threadbare gray scarf, thin from years of use, hangs loosely around his neck.<br>He's sitting across from an overworked SOCIAL WORKER (50's), African American. Her office is cramped and run-down in a cramped and run-down building. Stacks of folders piled high in front of her.<br>She just sits behind her desk, waiting for his laughing fit to end, she's been through this before. Finally it subsides.<br>Arthur takes a deep breath, pauses to see if it's over. Beat.<br>ARTHUR<br>--is it just me, or is it getting<br>crazier out there?<br>Despite the laughter, there's real pain in his eyes.<br>Something broken in him. Looks like he hasn't slept in days.<br> Beat.<br>SOCIAL WORKER<br>It's certainly tense. People are<br>upset, they're struggling. Looking for work. The garbage strike seems like it's been going on forever. These are tough times.<br>(then)<br>How 'bout you. Have you been keeping up with your journal?<br>ARTHUR Everyday.<br>SOCIAL WORKER<br>Great. Did you bring it with you?<br><br> Beat.<br>ARTHUR (dodging the subject)<br>I'm sorry. Did I bring what?<br>SOCIAL WORKER (impatient; she doesn't<br>have time for this)<br>Arthur, last time I asked you to bring your journal with you. For these appointments. Do you have it?<br>ARTHUR Yes ma'am.<br>SOCIAL WORKER Can I see it?<br>He reluctantly reaches into the pocket of his jacket hanging on the chair behind him. Pulls out a weathered notebook. Slides it across to her--<br>ARTHUR<br>I've been using it as a journal,<br>but also a joke diary. Funny thoughts or, or observations-- Did I tell you I'm pursuing a career in stand-up comedy?<br>She's half-listening as she flips through his journal.<br>SOCIAL WORKER No. You didn't.<br>ARTHUR I think I did.<br>She doesn't respond, keeps flipping through his journal--<br>PAGES AND PAGES OF NOTES, neat, angry-looking handwriting. Also, cut out photos from hardcore pornographic magazines and some crude handmade drawings.<br>A flash of anger crosses Arthur's face--<br>ARTHUR<br>I didn't realize you wanted to read<br>it.<br>The social worker gives him a look, then reads something in the pages that gives her pause--<br>2.<br><br> SOCIAL WORKER (reading out loud)<br>"I just hope my death makes more cents than my life."<br>She looks up at Arthur. He just stares back. Lets it hang out there for a beat.<br>Then he laughs a little, even though he doesn't think it's funny--<br>ARTHUR<br>Yeah. I mean, that's just--<br>SOCIAL WORKER<br>Does my reading it upset you?<br>He leans in.<br>ARTHUR<br>No. I just,-- some of it's<br>personal. You know?<br>SOCIAL WORKER<br>I understand. I just want to make<br>sure you're keeping up with it.<br>She slides his journal back to him. He holds it in his lap.<br>SOCIAL WORKER<br>How does it feel to have to come<br>here? Does it help having someone to talk to?<br>ARTHUR<br>I think I felt better when I was<br>locked up, in the hospital.<br>SOCIAL WORKER<br>And have you thought more about why<br>you were “locked up?"<br>ARTHUR<br>Well I suppose I was mentally ill.<br>SOCIAL WORKER How’s that?<br>ARTHUR<br>Well my mother thought I was<br>mentally ill, so she had me committed.<br>3.<br><br> SOCIAL WORKER Did you feel mentally ill?<br>ARTHUR<br>They’ve been saying that since I<br>was little. So who knows. Long pause.<br>ARTHUR<br>I was wondering if you could ask<br>the doctor to increase my medication.<br>The social worker ruffles through some papers--<br>Beat.<br>SOCIAL WORKER<br>Arthur, you’re on seven different<br>medications. Surely they must be doing something.<br>ARTHUR<br>I just don’t want to feel so bad<br>anymore.<br>And we HEAR "TEMPTATION RAG" playing on a broken down piano--<br>EXT. GOTHAM SQUARE, MIDTOWN - AFTERNOON - DAYS LATER<br>CLOSE ON ARTHUR, NOW DRESSED UP AS A CLOWN, painted white face... Wide red smile outlined in black around his mouth... Bulbous red nose... Bald cap with two patches of frizzy green hair sticking out over the ears, little bowler hat... Too- tight buttoned jacket... Baggy pants and oversized colored shoes. This is his job.<br>PULLING OUT, we see he's holding a sign in front of Kenny's Music Shop that reads, "EVERYTHING MUST GO!" A banner above the store reads, "GOING OUT OF BUSINESS!" Behind him, an OLD MAN plays an old piano on the busy street, garbage bags piled everywhere.<br>Arthur's doing a little Charlie Chaplin like performance to the music, twirling the sign, bringing attention to the sale. He's pretty good, feeling the music in his bones, light on his feet. Still most people walk right past, ignoring him.<br>ARTHUR SEES A GROUP OF BOYS pointing at him from down the street, laughing at him... One of the boys throws an empty Coke can at Arthur as they get close... Arthur holds up the sign like a shield, Coke can bouncing off it--<br>4.<br>  <br> The boys walk up on Arthur... He tries ignoring them, keeps dancing to the old ragtime, holding up the sign as they surround him... One of the kids knocks the sign out of Arthur's hands--<br>The other kids crack up. Arthur bends over to pick up his sign and... Kicks it... Attempts to pick it up again and... Kicks it again... It's a bit.<br>Arthur bends over a third time to pick up the sign and... One of the boys kicks him right in the ass--<br>Arthur falls face first onto the sidewalk. Oddly, the old man playing the piano picks up the pace of the music--<br>The kids crack up. One of the boys grabs Arthur's sign and takes off running across the street--<br>The other kids follow, weaving through traffic--<br>Arthur gets up and gives chase. He needs his sign back.<br>He almost gets hit by a taxi, spinning out of the way just in time-- Spinning right into another taxi that stops just short of hitting him.<br>Arthur keeps running through traffic. People stare. A clown barreling down the street has got to be a joke--<br>EXT. CORNER, ALLEY - GOTHAM SQUARE - CONTINUOUS<br>The five boys are booking it down the busy street laughing and whooping it up. At the last second they take a sharp right turn down an alley--<br>Arthur almost overshoots the corner, slip-sliding in his oversized shoes--<br>He rights himself and heads down after them-- Sees them running up ahead--<br>WHAP! Out of nowhere Arthur gets hit in the face! He falls to the ground.<br>One of the kids was hiding behind a dumpster and hit Arthur with the "EVERYTHING MUST GO!" sign, splintering it in two--<br>The other kids turn back and walk up to Arthur down on the ground.<br>5.<br> <br> Arthur reaches out, still trying to save the sign--<br>THE KIDS START KICKING AND BEATING THE SHIT out of Arthur. It's brutal and vicious. Nobody on the street stops to help.<br>CLOSE ON ARTHUR'S CLOWN FACE, down on the ground. Sweat running down his face, smearing his make-up. Doesn't even look like he's in pain. He just takes the beating. Arthur's good at taking a beating.<br>That stupid smile painted on his face.<br>TITLE:<br>JOKER<br>INT. CITY BUS (MOVING) - HEADING UPTOWN - LATE AFTERNOON<br>Arthur sitting in the back of a crowded bus, looking out the window at the city passing him by... his make-up's washed off, still see some white grease-paint smudged on the sides of his face.<br>He feels somebody staring, turns OLD BOY, face puffy from crying, back at him. His mother's facing behind you can tell she's angry.<br>to see a sad-eyed THREE-YEAR- sitting on his knees looking forward, but even from<br>Arthur doesn't know where to look, feeling self-conscious and small. He gets back into "character" smiling like a clown and covers his face with his hands-- Starts playing the peek-a- boo game with him.<br>The boy stares back at him for a moment then giggles--<br>WOMAN ON BUS (turns back to Arthur;<br>already annoyed)<br>Can you please stop bothering my kid?<br>ARTHUR<br>I wasn't bothering him, I was--<br>WOMAN ON BUS (interrupts)<br>Just stop.<br>AND SUDDENLY ARTHUR STARTS TO LAUGH. LOUD. He covers his mouth trying to hide it-- Shakes his head, laughter pausing for a moment, but then it comes on stronger. His eyes are sad. It actually looks like the laughter causes him pain.<br>6.<br><br> People on the bus are staring. The little boy looks like he's going to cry again.<br>WOMAN ON BUS You think that's funny?<br>Arthur shakes his head no, but he can't stop laughing. He reaches in his pocket and pulls out a small card. Hands it to the woman.<br>CLOSE ON THE CARD, it reads: "Forgive my laughter. I have a<br>condition (more on back)"<br>She turns the card over and there is a bunch of information in small writing--<br>"It's a medical condition causing sudden, frequent, uncontrollable laughter that doesn’t match how you feel. It can happen in people with a brain injury or certain<br>neurological conditions."<br>She doesn't read it (but if you freeze frame the movie you could). She just shakes her head annoyed and throws the card on the ground.<br>Arthur laughs harder. Tears running down his face.<br>Not wanting to attract any more attention to himself, he covers his mouth with his threadbare scarf, trying to muffle the laughter--<br>EXT. THE BRONX, STREET - SUNSET<br>The bus pulls away, sun almost gone.<br>Arthur heads slowly limping down the litter-covered streets. Garbage is piled along the sidewalks, the air thick with smog creates a haze over everything.<br>The streets are crowded with the poor, the elderly and disenfranchised. Women with children in busted strollers. Homeless people sleeping on subway grates. Stray dogs. His is one of the few white faces.<br>Arthur makes his way into a run-down drug store, behind him two drunks fight on the corner, beating the shit out of each other. Arthur, and nobody else for that matter, pays them any attention.<br>No one here gives a shit.<br>7.<br>  <br> EXT. SIDE ALLEY, TENEMENTS - EARLY DUSK<br>Arthur cuts through a garbage filled alley behind decaying apartment buildings. Holding a small white (prescription) bag in his hand. Tenants overhead leaning out their windows, smoking out their windows, laughing, arguing over loud music.<br>A BUNCH OF YOUNG KIDS HANGING OUT ON A FIRE-ESCAPE, yell down at Arthur giving him shit in Spanish.<br>EXT. STEEP STAIRWAY, TENEMENTS - DUSK<br>Arthur turns from the street, looking up at a long, steep concrete stairway that seems to go up forever, cutting between two tenement buildings, graffiti tags sprayed all over the brick walls. He starts the long climb up, step-after- step-after-step-after-step...<br>INT. APARTMENT BUILDING, LOBBY - DUSK<br>A shabby lobby in a building that was nice, but now it's a dump.<br>Arthur checks his mailbox. He's still bag in his hand.<br>The mailbox is empty.<br>once probably pretty holding the small white<br>INT. ELEVATOR, APARTMENT BUILDING - CONTINUOUS<br>Arthur steps onto the small, graffiti covered elevator, flickering fluorescent lights.<br>INT. MOM'S APARTMENT, FRONT DOOR - EVENING<br>Old apartment, worn carpet. Nothing's new inside but it's fairly neat and well-kept.<br>PENNY (OS) (shattering the moment)<br>Happy?! Did you check the mail before you came up?<br>ARTHUR<br>Yes, Ma. Nothing. No letter.<br>His mother, PENNY FLECK (60's), comes in all made up. She walks over and gives him a kiss on the cheek. He covers the pain from his beating the best he can-- His mother doesn't seem to notice anyway.<br>8.<br><br> PENNY<br>You sure you looked? Sometimes I<br>don't know where your head is.<br>ARTHUR<br>Yes I'm sure. And my head's right<br>here. Go lie down, I’m gonna make you some dinner, okay?<br>ARTHUR TEARS OPEN THE PRESCRIPTION BAG... A FLURRY OF PILL BOTTLES TUMBLE OUT ONTO THE COUNTER.<br>SEE HIS NAME, "ARTHUR FLECK" ON THE ORANGE PILL BOTTLES, TEMAZEPAM... PERPHENAZINE... AHENELZINE... AMITRIPTYLINE... BENZEDRINE... DIAZEPAM...

The TV's on, playing the local news.<br>PENNY<br>He must not be getting my letters.<br>Arthur sits down on a small chair in front of an old vanity, table covered with his mother's make-up.<br>ARTHUR<br>It's Thomas Wayne, Mom. He's a busy<br>man.<br>PENNY<br>Please. I worked for that family<br>for years. He always had a smile for me. Least he could do is write back.<br>Ma, eat.<br>You need you are.<br>ARTHUR<br>You need to eat.<br>PENNY<br>to eat. Look how skinny<br>Before Arthur can say anything, his mother points to the news on the TV--<br>QUICK CUTS:<br>9.<br><br> PENNY<br>All day long it's more bad news.<br>That's all there is.<br>ARTHUR<br>Maybe you shouldn't watch so much<br>television.<br>PENNY<br>Thomas Wayne is our only hope.<br>He'll make a great mayor. Everybody says so.<br>ARTHUR (playful)<br>Everybody who? Who do you talk to?<br>PENNY<br>Well everybody on the news.<br>(beat)<br>He's the only one who can save this city. He owes it to us.<br>Arthur smiles for his mother as he cuts up some more of her food.<br>PENNY<br>(she pats the bed)<br>Come sit. It’s starting.<br>Arthur gets into bed with her, their nightly ritual. Stay on his face as he watches the opening to their favorite show--<br>BARRY O'DONNELL (OS ON TV)<br>From NCB Studios in Gotham City, it's "Live with Murray Franklin!"

Audience cheering and applauding loudly for him. Murray takes a little bow, and does one or two more steps to the music...<br>ANGLE ON ARTHUR, clapping in the middle of the crowd. He's dressed "richer" (it's Arthur's fantasy version of himself). Everybody around him is enthusiastically applauding Murray.<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN (looking into the crowd)<br>Thank you. Glad you're here. We've got a great looking audience tonight.<br>Murray motions for everybody to quiet down, nodding his head in appreciation of their applause--<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN Wow.

Hey Bobby, can you raise the lights for me?<br>The house lights come up. Murray takes a few steps downstage and points straight up at Arthur--<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN You there, will you stand up?<br>What's your name?<br>Arthur looks around at the people around him, and realizes<br>Murray's talking to him. Murray picked him out of the crowd-- Arthur gets up to his feet. He talks more here, and with more<br>confidence, looks more at ease than we've seen him.<br>ARTHUR<br>Hi Murray. Arthur.

WAYNE MANOR, FRONT LAWN - SUNSET<br>Arthur walks down a small hill alongside an intimidating brick wall, surrounding the estate like a prison. From this angle he's able to peer over the wall, catching a glimpse of an innocent looking TEN-YEAR-OLD BOY tracking him from behind the trees, hiding as he follows.<br>Arthur comes to the front. A giant, wrought iron gate. We see a long driveway that leads to the big house, surrounded by beautiful trees and plush, green grounds.<br>Arthur stops.<br>He sees the boy approach, but not get too close.<br>Arthur reaches into his pocket and pulls out a magic wand-- He holds it up for the boy to see.<br>The boy steps up to get a closer look.<br>Arthur looks over the wand, pretending like he's trying to figure out what it does. He waves the wand over the front gate lock to "try and see" if it will open-- It doesn't.<br>The little boy tentatively walks toward the fence, face like an angel.<br>Arthur waits until he gets closer and then reaches his hand through the fence and hands the kid his magic wand so he can try and figure out what it does--<br>The boy takes the wand and it goes limp in his hand before he can wave it-- He looks at it, confused. He hands it back to Arthur.<br>Arthur straightens the wand back out, and reaches in through the fence again so the kid can give it another try.<br>And again the wand droops in the boy's hand. Disappointed, he gives it back to Arthur--<br>Arthur examines the wand as if its "broken", stiffens it one last time, crouches down lower, and...<br>Ta-da! A bouquet of flowers bursts out the end of the wand-- Arthur hands the boy the wand bouquet of flowers--<br>The little boy takes the flowers. Keeps staring at Arthur, not sure what to do or say. Not smiling.<br>Arthur looks back at him for a moment.<br>48.<br><br> THEN REACHES BOTH HANDS THROUGH THE GATE and firmly takes the little boy's face in his hands--<br>Uses his thumbs to hook the corners of the boy's mouth and pulls them up into a smile, into a "comedy mask"--<br>The boy is okay with it, puts his hands on top of Arthur's hands. They look at each other for a beat.<br>ALFRED (OS) (shouting)<br>Bruce!<br>Arthur lets go. The boy is now smiling on his own--<br>ALFRED (OS)<br>Bruce! What are you doing?

Who are you?<br>Bruce runs behind Alfred, hiding behind his legs.<br>ARTHUR<br>I'm here to see Mr. Wayne--<br>ALFRED (interrupting)<br>You shouldn't be talking to his son. Why did you give him those flowers?<br>Alfred takes the flower-wand away from the kid--<br>ARTHUR<br>I, I was just trying to make him<br>smile.<br>He hands it back to Arthur.<br>ALFRED<br>Well it's not funny. Do I need to<br>call the police?<br>49.<br> <br> ARTHUR<br>No, please. My mother's name is<br>Penny Fleck. She used to work here, years ago.

My<br>mother told me everything.<br>ALFRED<br>There's nothing to know. There is<br>no "them". Your mother was, was delusional. She was a sick woman.<br>ARTHUR<br>No. No, just let me speak to Mr.<br>Wayne.<br>Now Alfred leans in closer to Arthur, almost looks like he feels some pity for him--<br>Beat.<br>ALFRED<br>Please just go, before you make a<br>fool of yourself.<br>ARTHUR (blurts out)<br>Thomas Wayne is my father--<br>Alfred looks at Arthur, and can't help but crack up laughing at him.<br>AND ARTHUR REACHES HIS HANDS THROUGH THE BARS AGAIN AND GRABS HIM.

She's batshit crazy.<br>Arthur starts to smile, feels a laugh coming on.<br>ARTHUR<br>No. No, I don't believe that.<br>61.<br> <br> Thomas finishes drying his hands. Turns to Arthur, his tone way more serious now.<br>THOMAS WAYNE<br>I don't really give a shit what you<br>believe.<br>(steps in closer)<br>But if you ever come to my house again, if you ever talk to my son again, if I ever even hear about you again, I'll--<br>AND ARTHUR CRACKS UP LAUGHING, interrupting his threat. Laughing right in his face--<br>THOMAS WAYNE<br>Are you laughing at me?<br>Arthur's laughing so hard he can't answer.<br>THOMAS SHOVES ARTHUR HARD UP AGAINST THE TILED WALL, gripping his neck with one hand. Arthur just cracks up louder, he drops the dustpan and broom--<br>THOMAS WAYNE (shouting)<br>You think this is funny?<br>Thomas Wayne's bodyguards bang open the door, rushing into the bathroom when they hear the shouting--<br>They stop when they see Thomas has Arthur jacked up against the wall.<br>ARTHUR<br>(tries shaking his head<br>no; still laughing and<br>choking)<br>No, no I have a con--<br>THOMAS WAYNE (interrupting; raising his<br>voice)<br>Is this a fucking joke to you?<br>AND THOMAS WAYNE PUNCHES ARTHUR STRAIGHT IN THE FACE with his free hand, blood spraying from his nose--<br>INT.

DOCUMENTS &amp; RECORDS OFFICE - BASEMENT HALLWAY, ARKHAM STATE HOSPITAL - MORNING<br>Arthur stands at a service window that looks into the cramped records office, a metal grate covers most of the window. Harsh fluorescent lights flicker above. He glances at the hallway behind him, sees two orderlies walking a dead-eyed patient back to his ward, hears distant echoing screams.<br>He's interrupted by a CLERK (40's), ID clipped to his shirt, who's lugging an old heavy file storage box. He drops the box down on a counter beneath the window.<br>CLERK<br>Sorry for the wait. All our records<br>that are 10 years or older are stored in the basement. You're talking over 30 years ago,-- I had to do some serious digging.<br>Arthur nods thanks.

Have we met before?<br>64.<br><br> Arthur shakes his head no.<br>The clerk opens the file box. Starts digging though it. Arthur watches the orderlies locking the doors behind them, still hears the screams.<br>Beat.<br>ARTHUR<br>Can I ask you a question? How does<br>someone wind up in here? Have all the people committed crimes?<br>CLERK<br>(going through the files)<br>Some have. Some are just crazy and pose a danger to themselves or others. Some just got nowhere else to go.<br>ARTHUR (nods; looks down)<br>Yeah, I know how that is. Sometimes I don't know what to do, y'know, I don't think I can take any more of this.<br>The clerk is half listening as he scans the paper work.<br>CLERK<br>Yeah, I can't take much more of<br>this shit either. Now they talking about more layoffs, man, we're understaffed as it is.

I thought it would bother me but, it really hasn't.<br>The clerk finally looks back at him--<br>CLERK What's that?<br>ARTHUR<br>It's just so hard to try and be<br>happy all the time, y'know, when everything's going to shit all around you.<br>65.<br><br> CLERK<br>(taken aback; beat)<br>Listen, I'm just an administrative assistant, like a clerk. I file paperwork. I don't really know what to tell you, but maybe you should see someone-- they have programs, like city services.<br>ARTHUR (backtracking)<br>Yeah. They cut those. Anyway, I was just talking to talk.<br>The clerk just stares at Arthur--<br>CLERK (realizing)<br>Wait, I know where I've seen you,-- You were on Murray Franklin the other night, weren't you?<br>ARTHUR (beat)<br>No. I don't know what you're talking about.<br>CLERK<br>(shrugs, goes back to<br>looking through the<br>files)<br>Sorry, Murray just killed some poor guy on TV,--<br>The clerk shakes his head to himself, finally finds what he was looking for.<br>CLERK (surprised)<br>Here it is,-- Fleck. Penny Fleck.<br>He pulls out an old file, bulging with yellowing records. Moves the box to the floor and sits down on his stool behind the window.<br>ARTHUR<br>(saying it out loud for<br>himself to hear)<br>So she was a patient here.<br>The guy opens the file. Yellowing pages of her records--<br>66.<br><br> CLERK<br>(nods, skim-reading)<br>Uh-huh. Diagnosed by Dr. Benjamin Stoner... The patient suffers from delusional psychosis and narcissistic personality<br>disorder... Found guilty of endangering the welfare of a child--<br>The clerk stops reading out loud, eyes going wide as he skims further ahead. Arthur just looks at the guy, waiting to see what he's gonna say.<br>What?<br>ARTHUR<br>CLERK<br>You said she's your mother?<br>Arthur just nods.<br>CLERK (closes the file)<br>I'm sorry, I can't. Like I said, I can't release this without the proper forms. I could get in trouble.<br>(closes the file; beat) Besides, it's pretty bad.<br>CLOSE ON ARTHUR, he shakes his head and smiles to himself.<br>ARTHUR I can handle bad.<br>The clerk puts the file down on the counter--<br>CLERK<br>Yeah, sorry. If you want these<br>records you have to get your mom to sign a patient disclosure form. I can have someone mail you one.<br>Arthur just stands there, thinking it all over for a moment. Then reaches in under the metal cage and snatches the file-- The clerk grabs it as well.<br>They play tug-of-war with the file, it's awkward and goes on way too long. Out-of-nowhere Arthur slams his own head violently against the metal grate, surprising the guy, allowing him to pull the file away--<br>67.<br><br> Arthur takes off running down the hall with it. The clerk watches for a beat, but does nothing.<br>INT. HALLWAY, ARKHAM STATE HOSPITAL - MORNING<br>Arthur running down the hallway, files in his hands. Frantic. Unaware he is not being chased.

Undoes the chain and opens the door for them--<br>Randall and Gary get a look at Arthur's face, his dyed green hair still wet, streaking white grease-paint smeared over his face, red lips half done--<br>GARY (re: his look)<br>Hey Arthur, how's it going?<br>ARTHUR<br>Oh hey guys. Come on in.<br>GARY You get a new gig?<br>75.<br>   No.<br>ARTHUR<br>Arthur shakes his head no, steps aside so they can come in, palming the scissors in his hand--<br>RANDALL<br>You must be goin' down to that<br>rally at City Hall, right? I hear it's gonna be nuts.<br><br> ARTHUR Is that today?<br>Randall looks at him and laughs--<br>RANDALL<br>Yeah. What's with the make-up then?<br>Arthur shuts the door behind them. Locks the chain-lock.<br>ARTHUR<br>My mom died. I'm celebrating.<br>Randall and Gary share a look... that's weird.<br>RANDALL (nodding)<br>Right, we heard. That's why we came by, figured you could use some cheering up.<br>Arthur stares at Randall.<br>ARTHUR (beat)<br>That's sweet. But no, I feel good. I stopped taking my medication. I feel a lot better now.<br>RANDALL<br>Oh, okay. Well, good for you.<br>(beat)<br>Listen, I don't know if you heard, but the cops have been coming around the shop-- talking to all the guys about those subway murders. And um--<br>GARY (interrupting)<br>They didn't talk to me.<br>RANDALL (annoyed)<br>That's because the suspect was a regular-sized person. If it was a fucking midget you'd be in jail right now.<br>(back to Arthur, sincere) Anyway, Hoyt said they talked to you and now they're looking for me, and, and I just wanna know what you said.<br>(MORE)<br>76.<br><br> RANDALL (CONT’D) Make sure our stories line up,<br>bein' that you're my boy and all.<br>ARTHUR<br>Yeah, that's important. Yeah, that<br>makes a lot of sense. Thank you, Randall. Thank you so much--<br>AND ARTHUR STABS THE SCISSORS AS DEEP AS HE CAN into Randall's neck. Blood spurts. Randall screams. Gary stumbles back in shock--<br>GARY (screaming)<br>What the fuck what the fuck WHAT THE FUCK--<br>Arthur pulls them out and jams them into Randall's eye before he can react. The sound is sickening. Gary's screaming in the background--<br>Randall blindly fights back, screaming in pain, flailing his arms, his own blood blinding him--<br>Arthur grabs Randall by the head -- all of his pent up rage and frustration pouring out of him -- AND SLAMS HIS HEAD AGAINST THE WALL.<br>AGAIN. And AGAIN. And AGAIN.<br>Arthur lets go of Randall's head and Randall drops to the ground. Arthur leans back against the wall, out of breath, kind of slides down the wall to the floor--<br>Sees Gary huddled in the corner, trembling with fear--<br>ARTHUR (catching his breath)<br>Do you watch the Murray Franklin show? I'm gonna be on tonight.<br>Gary doesn't answer. Doesn't move--<br>ARTHUR<br>It's okay, Gary. You can go.<br>Gary backs away toward the door. Arthur sits there for a moment, breathing heavy, wipes Randall's blood off his face--<br>GARY (OS) Hey, Art?<br>Arthur turns, sees Gary at the front door. He points up high to the chain-lock. He can't reach it.<br>77.<br><br> Arthur just shakes his head to himself and gets up to unlock the door.<br>He walks past Gary who's still trembling almost too afraid to look up at him. Arthur leans over him and undoes the chain, opens the door. Gary takes off, Arthur closing the door behind him--<br>ANGLE ON ARTHUR, leaning his back against the wall. Takes out a cigarette, lights it with his left hand and smokes.<br>Exhales deeply.<br>INT. MOM'S BEDROOM, APARTMENT - LATE AFTERNOON<br>CUT TO:<br>(Over the following, we don't see Arthur's face.

HALLWAY, APARTMENT BUILDING - LATE AFTERNOON<br>FOLLOWING BEHIND ARTHUR, walking down the hallway as if in slow motion, heading for Sophie's apartment. His dyed green hair now slicked back.<br>He's wearing an ill-fitting rust colored suit.<br>STILL FROM BEHIND, he lays the envelope in front of Sophie's door, then pulls something else out of his pocket -- his body obscuring what it is -- puts it down by her door and leaves.<br>78.<br>    <br> As he walks away down the hallway, we see what else Arthur left behind--<br>HIS MAGIC WAND OF FLOWERS, at Sophie's door.

White grease paint smeared over his face... red nose painted on... blue peaks over and under his eyes... his mother's red lipstick crudely outlining his smiling mouth... Under the harsh flickering fluorescent lights, he looks like an insane version of his mask.<br>Ding.

STEEP STAIRWAY, TENEMENTS - LATE AFTERNOON<br>ARTHUR, NOW "JOKER" DANCING HIS WAY DOWN THE LONG STAIRCASE, doing his own Bill "Bojangles" Robinson stair dance...

But not dead.<br>80.<br><br> Burke has drawn his service revolver as he runs out of the alley with Garrity--<br>Joker takes off running, limping down the street toward the entrance for the elevated train, passing a few other people dressed as clowns, some in "Joker" masks, others painted up to look like the "Joker" mask...<br>EXT. ELEVATED TRAIN STATION, STEPS - CONTINUOUS<br>Joker hustling up the stairs, dripping sweat, his white grease-paint running down his face, starts to slow down as he mixes in with the crowd of clowns.

PLATFORM, ELEVATED TRAIN STATION - CONTINUOUS<br>Joker makes his way down the crowded platform, passengers starting to file on the train. It's packed with protesters heading to the rally at City Hall. Many carrying signs, most of them look like Joker, or are dressed as clowns. Joker fits in with all of them. "Rock 'n' Roll (Part 2)" ends.<br>Joker looks through the crowd of clowns and sees the two cops getting to the top of the stairs, looking up and down the platform for him. Pulling out their badges on chains from around their necks. Identifying themselves as cops.<br>Joker's willing the doors to close. But they don't.<br>The two detectives run onto the train just as the doors are finally closing--<br>INT.

"AM I<br>A CLOWN?"... "SAVE A CITY, KILL A YUPPIE"...<br>The two cops push through the car, scanning all the "clown" faces... So many look like Joker. They just shove protesters out of the way, shouting at them all the while. A few more voices rising up in protest--<br>Joker feels Burke and Garrity behind him getting closer. In the flickering light sees a DRUNK GUY (20's) wearing a 'Joker' mask and pulls it right off his face--<br>The drunk guy turns ready to fight.<br>He throws a punch at Joker, and Joker steps out of the way--<br>The guy pummels someone else--<br>A FIGHT BREAKS OUT, spilling down the car.<br>Joker slips the clown mask over his clown face--<br>AND JUST STANDS THERE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CHAOS, at home with the mayhem all around him--<br>Garrity and Burke spot Joker's rust colored suit in the middle of the unruly mob--<br>Burke pulls his gun--<br>DET.

HALLWAY, FRANKLIN THEATER - NIGHT<br>WIDE SHOT, empty hallway.<br>Then Murray Franklin turns the corner, walking fast toward the drab dressing rooms with his producer, GENE UFLAND (50's), who's holding the show's rundown rolled up in his hand. Murray looks a little more frayed around the edges than he did in Arthur's fantasy.<br>GENE UFLAND<br>--You gotta see this nut for<br>yourself, Murray. I don't think we can put him on. With all the shit that's going on out there.<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN (in a sour mood; annoyed)<br>Jesus, Gene, I don't have time for this. Cindy's been breaking my balls all day.<br>GENE UFLAND<br>She's still mad at you about that<br>thing?<br> <br> MURRAY FRANKLIN<br>Four marriages, you'd think I'da<br>fuckin' learned something. (then)<br>What do I gotta see? I already know he's a nut. That's why we're putting him on, it's a goof.<br>A young BLONDE INTERN walks by in the opposite direction. She nervously smiles to them and keeps walking. Both men turn and check out her ass. Murray winks at Gene.<br>GENE UFLAND<br>(just shakes his head, and<br>smiles)<br>I'm telling you, you gotta see him, Murray. I think it's too risky, the show's too big. It's worth too much to blow it on this,-- this freak.<br>INT. DRESSING ROOM, FRANKLIN THEATER - CONTINUOUS<br>Joker's sitting on a small couch in the cramped dressing room, watching the local news on a TV that's mounted up on the wall, live shots from the subway station where Burke shot the protestor, footage of the City Hall rally, clashes with police.<br>He's cleaned himself up as best he could... white grease- paint smeared more evenly over his face, green dyed hair slicked back in place. Red lips redone.<br>Murray and his producer Gene open the dressing room door without knocking--<br>Joker gets up off the couch and goes to shake Murray's hand. Murray pauses when he sees Joker's face.<br>JOKER<br>(shakes Murray's hand;<br>effusive) Murray,--<br>GENE UFLAND It's Mr. Franklin, buddy.<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN<br>Oh shut up, Gene. Who gives a shit.<br>84.<br>   <br> JOKER<br>Thanks, Murray. I feel like I know<br>you,-- I've been watching you forever. My mother never missed a show.<br>Murray nods not listening, he's heard this before.<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN<br>So what's with the face? Are you<br>part of the protests?<br>JOKER<br>No, I don't believe in any of that.<br>I don't believe in anything. I just thought it would be good for my act.<br>GENE UFLAND (upset)<br>Your act? Did you hear what happened on the subway? Some clown got killed.<br>Joker looks like he's about to bust out laughing. All of that news is playing out on the TV behind him. He takes a deep breath. Swallows the laugh.<br>Beat.<br>JOKER No. I hadn't heard.<br>GENE UFLAND (turns to Murray)<br>-- the audience is gonna go crazy if you put him on. It was okay maybe for a bit, but not a whole segment.<br>Murray thinks about it for a beat.<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN<br>No. I think it works. We're gonna<br>go with it.<br>Gene rubs his temples, he doesn't like this, but Murray is the boss.<br>JOKER Thank you, Murray.<br>85.<br><br> MURRAY FRANKLIN (flashes his bemused<br>smile; condescending)<br>Couple rules though,-- No cursing, no off-color material, we do a clean show, okay? You'll be on after Dr. Sally. Someone will come and get you. Good?<br>Joker nods good. Smiles back at Murray.<br>Murray and Gene turn to go, exchanging smirks with each other as they walk out, making light of Joker who we see behind them still standing there.<br>JOKER<br>Hey Murray,-- one small thing? When<br>you bring me out, can you introduce me as “Joker”?<br>Murray and Gene look back at him<br>GENE UFLAND<br>What? You don’t want to use your<br>real name?<br>JOKER<br>Honestly, I don't even know what my<br>real name is.<br>Joker smiles, the guys can't tell if he's kidding or not.<br>JOKER<br>Besides, that's what you called me<br>on the show, Murray. A joker. Remember?<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN (to Gene; trying not to<br>crack up) Did I?<br>GENE UFLAND I have no idea.<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN (turns back to Joker)<br>Well, if you say so, kid. Joker it is.<br>Murray starts to laugh at Joker as he closes the dressing room door, shutting it right in his face.<br>CUT TO:<br>86.<br><br> INT. BACKSTAGE, BEHIND CURTAIN - STUDIO 4B - NIGHT<br>JOKER'S BACKSTAGE AT THE EDGE OF THE CURTAIN, trying to watch the show through a slim gap.

SALLY FRIEDMAN (60's), sitting next to Barry O'Donnell.<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN<br>-- I'll try it, but I'm not sure my<br>wife will let me do it. Maybe my next wife.<br>The audience laughs.<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN (laughs; to Dr. Sally)<br>Will you stick around? You gotta see our next guest for yourself. I'm pretty sure he could use a doctor.<br>DR. SALLY FRIEDMAN<br>Oh. Does he have sexual problems?<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN<br>He looks like he's got a lot of<br>problems. Another big laugh.<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN (turns, looks into camera)<br>Alright folks, don't go anywhere. We'll be right back.<br>APPLAUSE SIGN LIGHTS UP. Everyone claps.

Sees the FLOOR MANAGER counting him down silently with her fingers... Three... Two... points to Camera One.<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN (looking into camera)<br>O-kay, you may have seen that clip of our next guest when we first played it a couple weeks ago. Now before he comes out, I just want to say that we're all heartbroken at what's going on in the city tonight. But, this is how he wanted to come out, and honestly I think we could all use a good laugh. So, please welcome-- Joker.<br>BEHIND THE SHIMMERING MULTICOLORED CURTAIN, Joker gathers himself, ready for his moment. Doesn't hear his introduction or see a STAGEHAND pull open the curtain for him to go out--<br>ON SET, THE CURTAIN'S OPEN, Ellis Drane and his Jazz Orchestra are playing Joker on. He doesn't come out. Murray looks over to the empty space in the curtain.<br>The audience laughs.<br>BEHIND THE CURTAIN, Joker sees the stagehand motioning for him to go out on stage.<br>88.<br><br> Joker starts out, pausing when he takes a step into the bright lights. The stagehand doesn't see him stop, and drops the curtain back on Joker before the audience can really see his face--<br>Tangling Joker up in the curtain.<br>The audience keeps laughing thinking it's part of his act. The band keeps playing him on. Joker untangles himself from the curtain and the audience gets a good look at him.<br>Some continue laughing. A few boo. Most don't know what to make of him.<br>Joker walks across the stage, forgetting to wave like he practiced. He trips over the riser surrounding the set when he goes to shake Murray's hand. Almost falls on him.<br>Murray tries not to crack up. The audience laughs. Thinks it's part of Joker's act.<br>Joker reaches out to hug Dr. Sally as she goes in for a handshake. Another awkward moment. More laughs.<br>Barry O'Donnell stands there with his hands up, as if to say "what about me?"<br>Joker ignores him and just sits down next to Murray. Crosses and uncrosses his legs. Can't get comfortable. Murray shakes his head.<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN<br>So, ahhh, thanks for coming on the<br>show. But I gotta tell ya, with what happened at City Hall today, I'm sure many of our viewers here, and at home, might find this look of yours in poor taste.<br>Joker's not listening to Murray. He's mesmerized by all the lights shining on him... all the eyes on him... he doesn't answer Murray.<br>Nervous laughter from the audience.<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN (tries again)<br>So... can you tell us why you're dressed like this? A lot of protesters are going with this look, right? City seems to be full of clowns these days.<br>A long uncomfortable beat.<br>89.<br><br> JOKER<br>(glances at the studio<br>audience; awkward) Yeah. Isn't it great?<br>INT. DIRECTOR'S BOOTH, STUDIO 4B - CONTINUOUS<br>Dead silence in the booth, everybody's just staring at the monitors.<br>TECHNICAL DIRECTOR (looks to the director)<br>This guy's got nothing.<br>DIRECTOR<br>(hits the producer's talk<br>button; into the mic)<br>Gene, what the hell? You wanna kill this?<br>INT. TALK SHOW SET, STAGE - CONTINUOUS<br>Murray glances over at his producer Gene Ufland, who's sitting off-camera on a director's chair by a monitor. Gene shrugs at him.<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN (smiles; trying to save<br>the interview)<br>So when we talked earlier, you mentioned that you aren't political. That this look isn't a political statement.<br>JOKER<br>That's right. I'm not political,<br>Murray. I'm just trying to make people laugh.<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN (beat; smiles)<br>How's that goin' for ya?<br>The studio audience laughs at Joker. Joker doesn't answer Murray, just smiles to himself.<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN (trying not to laugh)<br>Have you been working on any new<br>material? Do you want to tell us a joke now?<br>90.<br><br> The audience claps, egging Joker on to tell a joke. Joker reaches into his jacket pocket and--<br>Pulls out his worn notebook. Looks through it, sees Bruce Wayne's photo, pauses for a moment then turns the page. Finds the joke--<br>JOKER (reading)<br>Okay. Here's one. Knock-knock. MURRAY FRANKLIN<br>And you had to look that up?<br>Studio audience laughs.<br>JOKER<br>(nods; reads it again)<br>I want to get it right. Knock knock.<br>Murray makes a face like, "Okay, I’ll go along with this."<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN Who’s there?<br>Joker looks up from his notebook-- Sees the audience looking back at him, waiting for the punchline.<br>Decides to finish the joke--<br>JOKER<br>It's the police, ma'am. Your son<br>has been hit by a drunk driver. He's dead.<br>A few in the audience groan. A couple even laugh.<br>Ellis Drane plays "wha-wha-wha-whuuuuh" on his trumpet from the band stand. Barry O'Donnell clears his throat.<br>DR. SALLY FRIEDMAN Ahhhh! No, no,-- You can not joke<br>about that.<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN (shakes his head;<br>irritated)<br>Yeah, that's not funny, that's not the kind of humor we do on this show.<br>91.<br><br> Murray glances over at Gene in the wings. He gives him the "wrap it up" sign.<br>Beat.<br>JOKER<br>(just keeps going, on a<br>roll)<br>Sorry. It's been a rough few weeks, Murray. Ever since I killed those three Wall Street guys.<br>Studio audience can't tell if he's joking or not. Murray can't either.<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN (looks at him confused)<br>Okay. I'm waiting for the punchline.<br>JOKER<br>There is no punchline. It's not a<br>joke.<br>INT. DIRECTOR'S BOOTH, STUDIO 4B - CONTINUOUS<br>The director stares at the monitor.<br>DIRECTOR<br>Did he just confess to killing the<br>Wall Street Three?<br>TECHNICAL DIRECTOR (horrified)<br>Yeah.

TALK SHOW SET, STAGE - CONTINUOUS<br>Gene Ufland motions for Murray to kill the interview. Murray shakes his head to himself. This is a big "get," it could be great television.<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN (turns back to Joker; with<br>gravitas)<br>You're serious, aren't you? You're telling us you killed those three young men on the subway. Why should we believe you?<br>JOKER (shrugs)<br>I got nothing left to lose, Murray. Nothing can hurt me anymore. This is my fate, my life is nothing but a comedy.<br>INT. SOPHIE'S APARTMENT, LIVING ROOM - CONTINUOUS<br>Sophie's sitting on her couch watching this interview play out on TV. GiGi's asleep next to her. The open envelope and the money are lying on the coffee table. No sign of the flowers anywhere.<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN (ON TV) Let me get this straight, you think<br>killing those guys is funny?<br>JOKER (ON TV)<br>Comedy is sub, subjective, isn't<br>that what they say? All of you, the system that knows so much, you decide what's right or wrong. What's real or what's made up. The same way you decide what's funny or not.<br>Sophie edges forward on the couch, can almost see a hint of agreement on her face.<br>INT. TALK SHOW SET, STAGE - STUDIO 4B - CONTINUOUS<br>Back on set, we can tell by the way Murray's now interviewing Joker, talking to him slower, more thoughtfully, that he thinks this is gonna get him an Emmy... Maybe even a Peabody.<br>93.<br> <br> MURRAY FRANKLIN (beat)<br>Okay, I think I understand. You did it to start a movement, to become a symbol.<br>JOKER<br>C'mon, Murray, do I look like the<br>kind of clown who could start a movement? I killed those guys because they were awful. Everybody's awful these days. It's enough to make anyone crazy.<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN<br>So that's it, huh, you're crazy.<br>That's your defense for killing three young men? Because they were mean to you?<br>JOKER<br>No. They couldn't carry a tune to<br>save their lives.<br>Some audible groans from the audience.<br>JOKER<br>Why is everyone so upset about<br>these guys? Because Thomas Wayne went and cried about them on TV?<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN<br>You have a problem with Thomas<br>Wayne, too?<br>JOKER<br>Yeah. I do. Everything comes so<br>easy for him.<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN And what's wrong with that?<br>JOKER<br>Have you seen what it's like out<br>there, Murray? Do you ever actually leave this studio? Everybody just yells and screams at each other. Nobody's civil anymore. Nobody thinks what it's like to be the other guy. You think men like Thomas Wayne ever think what it's like to be a guy like me? To be anybody but themselves.<br>(MORE)<br>94.<br><br>                     JOKER (CONT’D)<br>(shaking his head, voice rising)<br>They don't. They think we'll all just sit there and take it like good little boys. That we won't go wild. Well, this is for all of you out there.<br>Joker "howls at the moon." It's fucking weird.<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN<br>So much self-pity, Arthur. You<br>sound like you're making excuses for killing three young men. Not everybody's awful.<br>JOKER You're awful, Murray.<br>There is no more laughter. The audience is watching this exchange with full attention.<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN Me? How am I awful?<br>JOKER<br>Playing my video, inviting me on<br>the show,-- You just wanted to make fun of me. You're just like the rest of them, Murray. Everything comes too easy for you.<br>MURRAY FRANKLIN (on the spot; defensive)<br>You don't know the first thing about me, pal. Look what happened because of what you did, what it led to.

He looks medicated or maybe even lobotomized.<br>He's sitting across from an overworked HOSPITAL DOCTOR (50's), African American woman. Somehow it's the exact same room Joker imagined his mother was in some 30 years ago. The room and the doctor also look vaguely similar to the social worker and her office in the opening scene.<br>The doctor just sits there, waiting for him to stop laughing. A weathered notebook is on the table in front of him. Finally, Joker stops himself.<br>CUT TO BLACK.<br>FADE IN:<br> <br> HOSPITAL DOCTOR What's so funny?<br>He takes a deep breath, his eyes are glazed over.

Beat.<br>101.<br> <br> ANGLE ON JOKER, his smile creeping wider across his face. And we HEAR the groovy organ opening to FRANK SINATRA's anthem "That's Life"...<br>Beat.<br>INT. HALLWAY, ARKHAM STATE HOSPITAL - MORNING<br>From behind, see Joker shuffling down the long hallway past all the other mental patients. Sinatra starts singing...<br>And Joker does a slide step to the music like he can hear it too... into a skip... and another slide step into a spin...

- Can you see?
- Yeah.
- You sure?
- Mm-hmm.
How about now?
Can you see now?
All right.
Ready? Three fingers.
Nice!
- Nice throw, kiddo!
- Go.
Hey, you guys want mayo
or mustard, or both?
Who wants mayo on a hotdog?
Pardon your brothers. Two mustards, please!
Thanks, momma.
Got it.
Nate, mayo or mustard?
I want ketchup.
Mind your elbow...
Good job, Hawkeye!
Go get your arrow.
Hey, guys. Enough practice.
Soup's on.
All right. We're coming.
We're hungry.
Lila, let's go.
Lila?
Honey?
Babe?
Babe?
Babe?
Boys!
Boys?
Laura!
You don't need to do that,
because you're just
holding the position.
Come on.
That was close.
That's a goal. We're
now one a-piece.
I would like to try again.
We're tied up.
Feel the tension? It's fun.
That was terrible. Now you
have a chance to win.
And you won. Congratulations.
Fair game.
Good sport.
You had fun?
It was fun.
This thing on?
Hey, Miss Potts... Pep.
If you find this recording...
don't post it, on social media.
It's gonna be a real tear-jerker.
I don't know if you're
ever gonna see these.
I don't even know
if you're still...
Oh, God. I hope so...
Today is day 21... uh, 22.
You know, if it wasn't for
the existensial terror of
staring into the
literal void of space,
I'd say, I'm feeling
more better today.
The infection's run its course,
thanks to the blue meanie back there.
You'd love her. Very practical.
Only a tiny bit sadistic.
Some fuel cells were cracked during battle, but
we figured out a way to reverse the ion charge
to buy ourselves, about,
48 hours of playtime.
But it's now dead in the water.
We're 1,000 lightyears
from the nearest 7-11.
Oxygen will run out
tomorrow morning.
That'll be it.
And Pep, I...
I know I said no
more surprises, but
I gotta say I was really hoping
to pull off one last one.
But it looks like...
Well, you know what
it looks like.
Don't feel bad about this.
I mean actually if you
grovel for a couple weeks,
and then, move on
with enormous guilt.
I should probably lie down.
I'm gonna caress my
Please know that...
When I drift off, it will be
goodbye the whole time...
I'll think about you.
Because it's always you.
- Couldn't stop him.
- Neither could I.
I lost the kid.
Tony, we lost.
Is, umm...
Oh, my God!
It's okay.
It's been 23 days since
Thanos came to Earth.
World governments are in pieces.
The parts that are still working
are trying to take a census,
And it looks like he did...
He did exactly what he said he
was gonna do. Thanos wiped out..
...fifty percent of
all living creatures.
Where is he now? Where?
We don't know.
He just opened a portal
and walked through.
What's wrong with him?
He's pissed.
He thinks he failed.
Which of course he did, but there's a
lot of that goin' around, ain't there?
Honestly, at this exact second, I
thought you were a Build-A-Bear.
Maybe I am.
We've been hunting Thanos
for three weeks now.
Deep space scans, and
satellites, and we got nothing.
- Tony you fought him.
- Who told you that?
Didn't fight him.
No. He wiped my face
with a planet while a
Bleecker Street magician
gave away the stone.
- That's what happened. There was no fight...
- Okay.
Did he give you any clues?
Any coordinates, anything?
Pfft!
I saw this coming a few years back. I had
a vision. I didn't wanna believe it.
Thought I was dreaming.
- Tony I'm gonna need you to focus.
- And I needed you.
As in past tense. That trumps what
you need. It's too late, buddy.
Sorry.
You know what I need?
I need to shave.
- And I believe I rememeber telling
- Tony, Tony, Tony...
why that otherwise,
that what we needed was a suit of armor
around the world. Remember that?
Whether it impacted our precious
freedoms, or not. That's what we needed.
- Well that didn't work out, did it?
- I said we'd lose.
You said, "We'll do
that together, too."
Well guess what, Cap? We lost.
You weren't there.
But that's what we do, right?
Our best work after the fact?
We're the Avengers? We're the Avengers?
Not the Prevengers?
Okay. You made your point.
Just sit down, okay?
- No, no. Here's my... She's great, by the way.
- Tony, sit, sit down!
We need you. You're new blood.
Bunch of tired old mills...
I got nothing for you, Cap.
I got no coordinates,
no clues, no strategies,
no options...
Zero. Zip. Nada. No
trust, you liar...
Here, take this. You find
him and you put that on.
You hide.
- Tony!
- I'm fine. I...
Bruce gave him a sedative. He's gonna
probably be out for the rest of the day.
You guys take care of him. And I'll bring
an Bezurian elixir when I come back.
- Where are you going?
- To kill Thanos.
Hey.
You know we usually work
as a team here, and
between you and I we're
also a little fragile.
We realize up there is more your
territory but this is our fight, too.
- You even know where he is?
- I know people who might.
Don't bother.
I can tell you where Thanos is.
Thanos spent a long time
trying to perfect me.
Then when he worked, he
talked about his great plan.
Even disassembled, I
wanted to please him.
I'd ask, where would we go
once his plan was complete?
His answer was always the same.
To The Garden.
That's cute. Thanos has
a retirement plan.
So where is he, then?
When Thanos snapped his fingers,
Earth became ground zero for a power surge
of ridiculously cosmic proportions.
No one's ever seen anything like it...
until two days ago.
On this planet.
Thanos is there.
He used the stones again.
Hey, hey, hey...
We'd be going in
short-handed, you know?
- Look, he still got the stones, so...
- So let's get him.
- We use them to bring everyone back.
- Just like that?
Yeah. Just like that.
Even if there's a small chance
that we can undo this...
I mean, we owe it to everyone
who's not in this room to try.
If we do this, how do we know it's gonna
end any differently than it did before?
Because before, you
didn't have me.
Hey, new girl, everybody in this
room is about that superhero life.
And if you don't mind my asking, where
the hell have you been all this time?
There are a lot of other
planets in the universe.
And unfortunately, they
didn't have you guys.
I like this one.
Let's go get this
son of a bitch.
Okay. Who here hasn't
been to space?
You better not throw
up on my ship.
Approaching jump in 3.. 2.. 1.
I'll head down for recon.
- This is gonna work Steve.
- I know it will.
Because I don't know what
I'm gonna do if it doesn't.
No satellites, no ships, no armies,
no ground defenses of any kind.
It's just him.
Then that's enough.
Oh, no.
Where are they?
Answer the question.
The universe
required correction.
After that, the stones served
no purpose, beyond temptation.
You murdered trillions!
You should be grateful.
- Where are the stones?
- Gone.
- Reduced to atoms.
- You used them two days ago.
I used the stones to
destroy the stones.
It nearly killed me.
But the work is done.
It always will be.
I am inevitable.
We have to tear this place apart.
He has to be lying.
My father is many things.
A liar is not one of them.
Thank you, Daughter.
Perhaps I treated
you too harshly...
What... what did you do?
I went for the head.
So I, uh...
Went on a date the other day.
It's the first time in five years,
you know? Sit there, dinner...
I didn't know what
to talk about.
What did you talk about?
Same old crap, you know? How
things have changed, and...
My job, his job....
How much we miss the Mets.
Then things get quiet..
He cried as they were
serving the salads.
What about you?
I cried just before dessert.
But I'm seeing him
again tomorrow, so...
That's great.
You did the hardest part.
You took the jump, you
didn't know where you
were gonna come down.
And that's it. That's those little
brave baby steps you gotta take.
To try and become whole again.
To try and find purpose.
I went in the ice in '45 right
after I met the love of my life.
Woke up 70 years later.
You got to move on.
Got to move on.
The world is in our hands.
It's left to us guys.
And we got to do
something with it.
Otherwise...
Thanos should've
killed all of us.
What the hell?
Hope?
Kid! Hey, kid!
What the hell happened here?
My God...
No. Please. Please, please.
No, no, no...
Excuse me. Sorry.
No, Cassie, no.
No.
No, no.
Please, please,
please, please....
No, Cassie...
What?
Cassie?
Dad?
You're so big!
Yeah, we boarded that highly
suspect warship Danvers pinged.
It was an infectious
garbage scowl.
So, thanks for the hot tip.
- Well, you were closer.
- Yeah. And now we smell like garbage.
You get a reading
on those tremors?
It was a mild subduction
under the African plate.
Do we have a visual? How
are we handling it?
Nat, it's an earthquake
under the ocean.
We handle it by not handling it.
Carol, are we seeing
you here next month?
- Not likely.
- What, you gonna get another haircut?
Listen, fur-face. I'm
covering a lot of territory.
The things that are
happening on Earth are
happening everywhere, on
thousands of planets.
That's a good point.
That's a good point.
So you might not see
me for a long time.
All right. Uh, well...
This channel is always active.
So, anything goes sideways...
Anyone's making trouble
where they shouldn't...
- Comes through me.
- Okay.
All right.
Good luck.
- Where are you?
- Mexico.
The federales found a
room full of bodies.
Looks like a bunch of cartel guys. Never
even had the chance to get their guns off.
- It's probably a rival gang...
- Except it isn't.
It's definitely Barton.
What he's done here, what he's
been doing for the last few years,
I mean, the scene
that he left...
I gotta tell you, there's a part of
me that doesn't even wanna find him.
Will you find out where
he's going next?
Nat...
Please.
Okay.
You know I'd offer to clip your dinner
but you seem pretty miserable already.
You here to do your laundry?
And to see a friend.
Clearly, your friend is fine.
You know I saw a pod of whales
when I was coming up the bridge.
- In the Hudson?
- There's fewer ships, cleaner water.
You know, if you're about to tell
me to look on the bright side...
Um...
I'm about to hit you in the head
with a peanut butter sandwich.
Sorry. Force of habit.
You know I keep telling everybody
they should move on and... grow.
Some do.
But not us.
- If I move on, who does this?
- Maybe it doesn't need to be done.
I used to have nothing.
And then I got this.
This job.
This family.
And I was... I was
better because of it.
And even though...
they're gone...
Now, I'm still
trying to be better.
I think we both
need to get a life.
You first.
Oh... Hi. Hi!
Is anyone home?
This is Scott Lang.
We met a few years ago, at the airport?
In Germany?
I got really big and
I had my mask on.
- You wouldn't recognize me.
- Is this an old message?
Ant-Man? Ant-Man, I
know you know that.
It's the front gate.
I need to talk to you guys.
Scott.
- Are you okay?
- Yeah.
Have either of you guys ever
studied quantum physics?
Only in mid-conversation.
Alright. So...
Five years ago, right before...
Thanos,
I was in a place called
the quantum realm.
The quantum realm is like its
own microscopic universe.
To get in there, you have to be
incredibly small. Hope, she's my...
She... she was my...
She was supposed to pull me out.
And then Thanos happened, and
- I got stuck in there.
- Sorry. That must've been a long 5 years.
Yeah, but that's just it.
It wasn't.
For me it was five hours.
See, the rules of the quantum realm
aren't like they are up here.
Everything is unpredictable. Is that
anybody's sandwich? I'm starving.
Scott.
What are you talking about?
So...
What I'm saying is...
Time works differently
in the quantum realm.
The only problem is right now, we
don't have a way to navigate it.
But what if we did?
I can't stop thinking about it. What
if we could somehow control the chaos,
and we could navigate it? What if
there was a way that we can enter
the quantum realm at a certain
point in time but then
exit the quantum realm at
another point in time? Like...
Like before Thanos.
Wait, are you talking
about a time machine?
No. No, of course not.
No, not a time machine.
It's more like a...
Yeah, a time machine. I know it's crazy.
It's crazy.
But I can't stop thinking about it.
There's gotta be...
Some wa... It's crazy.
I get e-mails from a raccoon. So,
nothing sounds crazy anymore.
So who do we talk to about this?
Chow-time!
Morgoona.
Morgan H. Stark.
Want some lunch?
- Define lunch or be disintegrated.
- Okay.
You should not be
wearing that, okay?
That is part of a special anniversary
gift I'm making for Mom.
There you go. Are you
thinking about lunch?
Want a handful of crickets?
- No.
- That's what you want.
- How did you find this?
- Garage.
Really?
- Were you looking for it?
- No.
I found it, though.
You like going to the garage, huh?
So does Daddy.
It's fine actually. Mom never
wears anything I wear.
Now, we know what
it sounds like...
Tony after everything you've seen,
is anything really impossible...
Quantum fluctuation messes
with the Planck scale,
which then triggers the Deutsch
proposition. Can we agree on that?
Thank you.
In Layman's terms, it means
you're not coming home.
- I did.
- No.
You accidentally survived. It's a---
It's a billion-to-one
cosmic fluke.
And now you wanna pull a...
What do you call it?
- A time heist?
- Yeah. Time heist.
Of course. Why didn't we
think of this before?
Oh! Because it's laughable?
Because it's a pipedream?
The stones are in the past. We
can go back and we can get them.
We can snap our own fingers.
We can bring everybody back.
Or screw it up worse than
he already has, right?
I don't believe we would.
Gotta say this. Sometimes, I
miss that giddy optimism.
However, high hopes won't
help if there's no logical,
tangible, way for me to safely
execute said time heist.
I believe the most likely outcome
will be our collective demise.
Not if we strictly follow
the rules of time travel.
That means no talking to our past selves,
no betting on sporting events...
I'm gonna stop you
right there, Scott.
Are you seriously telling
me that your plan to
save the universe is based
on Back to the Future?
- No.
- Good. You had me worried there.
'Cause that'd be horseshit. That's
not how quantum physics works.
Tony...
We have to take a stand.
We did stand. And
yet, here we are.
I know you got a lot on the line.
You got a wife, a daughter.
But I lost someone very important to me.
A lot of people did.
And now, now, we have a chance to bring
her back. To bring everyone back.
And you're telling me
that you won't even...
That's right, Scott.
I won't. Leave it.
Got a kid.
Mommy told me to
come and save you.
Good job. I'm saved.
I wish you'd come here to
ask me something else.
Anything else. Honestly, I
missed you guys, it was...
- Oh, and table's set for six.
- Tony, I get it.
And I'm happy for you.
I really am.
But this is a second chance.
I got my second chance
right here, Cap.
I can't roll the dice again.
If you don't talk shop,
you can stay for lunch.
- He's scared.
- He's not wrong.
Yeah, but I mean,
what are we gonna do?
We need him. What,
are we gonna stop?
No. I wanna do it right.
We're gonna need a
really big brain.
Bigger than his?
Come on. I feel like I'm the only
one eating. Try some of that.
Have some eggs.
I'm so confused.
- These are confusing times.
- Right. No, no...
- That's not what I meant. I...
- No, I get it.
I'm kidding! I know. It's crazy.
- I'm wearing shirts now.
- Yeah! How? Why?
Five years ago we
got our asses beat.
Except it was worse for me.
Because I lost twice.
First, Hulk lost. Then Banner lost.
Then, we all lost.
- No one blamed you, Bruce.
- I did.
For years I've been
treating the Hulk like he's
some kind of disease,
something to get rid of.
But then I started looking
at him as the cure.
Eighteen months in a gamma lab. I put
the brains and the brawn together.
And now look at me.
Best of both worlds.
- Excuse me, Mr. Hulk?
- Yes?
- Can we get a photo?
- 100%, little person.
Come on, step on up. You mind?
Oh.
- Say "green."
- Green.
Greeeen.
- Did you get that?
- That's good.
Don't you wanna grab one with me?
I'm Ant-Man.
They're Hulk fans.
They don't know Ant-Man.
- Nobody does.
- Wait, no, no, he wants to...
You want to take a
picture with him, right?
He's even saying no he doesn't.
I get it.
I don't want it either. I don't
want a picture with them.
- He's gonna feel bad.
- Sorry.
- They said they'd do it.
- I don't want it anymore.
- You'd feel bad...
- Take the goddamn phone.
Thank you, Mr. Hulk.
No, it's great, kids.
Thank you very much.
- Hulk out!
- Bruce.
- Dab.
- Bruce.
Listen to your Mom.
She knows better.
- About we were saying...
- Right.
The whole time travel do-over?
Guys, it's outside of
my area of expertise.
Well, you pulled this off.
I remember a time when that
seemed pretty impossible, too.
Look at a mod inspiration,
let me see what checks out.
So, recommend one last sim before
we pack it in for the night.
This time, in the shape of a
mobius strip, inverted. Please?
Processing...
Give me that eigenvalue. That, particle
factoring, and spectral decomp.
- Gotta take a second.
- Just a moment.
And don't worry if it doesn't pan out.
I'm just kinda...
Model rendered.
Shit!
Shit!
What are you doing
up, Little Miss?
- Shit.
- No. We don't say that.
Only Mommy says that word. She
coined it, it belongs to her.
Why you up?
'Cause I got some important shit
going on here. What do you think?
No, I got something on my mind.
I got something on my mind.
- Was it Juice Pops?
- Sure was.
That's extortion.
Great minds think alike. Juice
Pops, exactly was on...
my mind.
You done? Yeah? Now you are.
- That face, goes there.
- Tell me a story.
A story.
Once upon a time, a little
girl went to bed. The end.
That ain't the whole story.
Come on, that's your
favorite story.
I love you tons.
I love you 3,000.
Wow.
3,000. That's crazy.
Go to bed. Or I'll
sell all your toys.
Night-night.
Not that it's a competition,
but she loves me 3,000.
You were somewhere in
the low 6 to 900 range.
- What you reading?
- Just a book on composting.
What's new with composting?
- Just ....
- I figured it out...
by the way.
You know, just so we're talking
about the same thing...
Time travel.
What?
Wow.
That's...
Amazing, and.... terrifying.
That's right.
- I got really lucky.
- Yeah. I know.
- A lot of people didn't.
- No, I can't help everybody.
- It sorta seems like you can.
- Not if I stop.
I can put a pin in it
right now, and stop.
Tony...
trying to get you to stop has been one
of the few failures of my entire life.
I sometimes feel I should put it in a locked
box and drop it at the bottom of a lake...
...go to bed.
But would you be able to rest?
Okay, here we go. Time
travel test number one.
Scott, fire up the, uhh...
The van thing.
Breakers are set. Emergency
generators are on standby.
Good. 'Cause if we blow the grid, I don't
wanna lose Tiny here in the 1950's.
- Excuse me?
- He's kidding.
You can't say things like that.
Just... it was, just a bad joke.
- You were kidding, right?
- I have no idea.
We're talking about time travel here.
Either it's all a joke, or none of it is.
We're good! Get your helmet on.
Scott, I'm gonna send you
back a week, but you'll walk
around for an hour, then bring
you back in 10 seconds.
- Makes sense?
- Perfectly not confusing.
Good luck, Scott. You got this.
You're right. I do,
Captain America.
On the count of three.
3.. 2.. 1..
Guys? This doesn't feel right.
- What's going on? Hold on.
- Who is that?
- Is that Scott?
- Yes, it's Scott!
Ooh! My back!
- Can you bring him back?
- I'm working on it!
A baby.
- It's Scott.
- As a baby!
Bring Scott back.
When I say kill the
power, kill the power.
And... kill it!
Somebody peed my pants.
I don't know if it was
"baby" me or "old" me.
Or, just "me" me.
Time travel!
What?
I see this as an absolute win.
Why the long face?
Let me guess. He
turned into a baby.
Among other things, yeah.
What are you doing here?
That's the EPR paradox.
Instead of pushing Lang through time, you
might've wound up pushing time through Lang.
It's tricky. Dangerous. Somebody
coulda cautioned you against it.
- You did.
- Oh, did I?
Thank God, I'm here.
Regardless, I fixed it.
A fully functioning
time-space GPS.
I just want peace.
Turns out, resentment is
corrosive, and I hate it.
Me, too.
We got a shot at getting
these stones, but I
gotta tell you my
priority is to bring back
what we lost? I hope, yes.
Keep what I found? I
have to, at all costs.
And, maybe not die
trying will be nice.
Sounds like a deal.
- Tony, I don't know...
- Why? He made it for you.
Plus, honestly I have to get it out the
garage before Morgan takes it sledding.
Thank you, Tony.
Will you keep that a little quietly?
Didn't bring one for the whole team.
- We are getting, the whole team, yeah?
- We're working on that right now.
- Hey, humie! Where's big green?
- Kitchen. I think.
- That's awesome.
- Rodent, careful on re-entry.
There's an idiot on
the landing zone.
Oh, God!
What's up, regular-sized man?
Kind of a step down from a golden palace
for an Avenger highness or whatnot.
Hey, have a little compassion, pal.
First, they've lost Asgard,
then half the people. They're probably
just happy they have a home.
You shouldn't have come!
Valkyrie!
Great to see you, Angry Girl.
I think I liked you better
either of the other ways.
- This is Rocket.
- How you doin'?
- He won't see you.
- That bad, huh?
We only see him once a month,
when he comes in for...
...supplies.
- It's that bad.
- Yeah.
What the...
Woo! Something died in here.
Hello? Thor?
Are you here about the cable?
The Cinemax ran out two weeks ago,
and, sports were all kind of fuzzy...
Boys! Oh, my God!
My God! How have you been?
Come here, you little rascal!
No, I'm good! I'm good.
That's not necessary!
Hulk, you know my friends,
Miek, Korg, right?
- Hey, boys!
- Hey, guys. Long time no see.
Beer's on the bucket. Feel
free to log on to the wi-fi.
No password, obviously.
Thor, he's back. That kid on the TV
who's called me a dickhead again.
- Noobmaster.
- Yeah, Noobmaster69.
Noobmaster. Hey, it's Thor again.
You know, the God of Thunder?
Listen, buddy. If you don't log off
this game immediately I'm gonna fly
home to your house, come down to
that basement you're hiding in,
rip off your arms then
shove them up your butt!
Oh, that's right. Yes, go cry to
your father, you little weasel!
Thank you, Thor.
Let me know if he
bothers you again, okay?
Thank you very much. I will.
So you guys want a drink?
What are you drinking?
We have beer, tequila,
all sorts of things.
Buddy, you all right?
Yes, I'm fine! Why,
don't I look all right?
You look like melted ice cream.
So, what's up?
We need your help. There might be
a chance we could fix everything.
What, like the cable? 'Cause that's
been driving me bananas for weeks.
Like Thanos.
Don't say that name.
Um, yeah. We don't actually
say that name in here.
Please take your hand off me.
Now, I know that...
guy might scare you.
Why would I be? Why would, why
would I be scared of that guy?
I'm the one who killed
that guy, remember?
Anyone else here
killed that guy?
Nope. Didn't think so.
Korg, why don't you, tell everybody
who chopped Thanos' big head off.
Umm... Stormbreaker?
Now, who's swinging
Stormbreaker?
I get it. You're in a rough spot, okay?
I've been there myself.
You wanna know who
helped me out of it?
I don't know. Is it... Natasha?
It was you.
You helped me.
Why don't you ask the,
Asgardians down there,
how much my help was worth.
The ones that are left, anyway.
I think we can bring them back.
Stop. Just, stop...
I know you think I'm down here wallowing in
my own self-pity, waiting to be rescued and
and saved. But I'm fine, okay?
We're fine, aren't we?
Nah, all good here, mate!
So, whatever it is that
you're offering, we're
not into it, don't care,
couldn't care less.
Goodbye.
We need you, pal.
There's beer on the ship.
What kind?
It's him! He's after Akihiko!
We never did anything to you!
You're done hurting people.
You're crazy!
Wait! Help me!
What I want...
You can't give me.
You shouldn't be here.
Neither should you.
I've got a job to do.
Is that what you're
calling this?
Killing all these people isn't
gonna bring your family back.
We found something.
A chance, maybe...
Don't.
Don't what?
Don't give me hope.
I'm sorry I couldn't
give it to you sooner.
Drifting left. On the
side there, Lebowski.
- Ratchet, how's it going?
- It's Rocket.
Take it easy. You're only
a genius on Earth, pal.
Yup.
Time travel suit? Not bad.
Hey, hey, hey. Easy, easy!
- I'm being very careful.
- No, you're being very Hulky.
- I'm being careful.
- These are Pym particles, all right?
And ever since Hank Pym got snapped
out of existence, this is it.
This is what we have. We're
not making any more.
- Scott, calm down.
- Sorry.
We've got enough for
one round trip, each.
That's it. No do-overs.
Plus, two test runs.
One test run.
All right. I'm not
ready for this.
I'm game.
I'll do it.
Clint, now you're gonna feel
a little discombobulated
from the chronoshift.
Don't worry about it.
Wait a second, let me
ask you something.
If we can do this, you know, go
back in time, why don't we just
find baby Thanos, you know?
And...
- First of all, that's horrible.
- It's Thanos.
And secondly, time doesn't work that way.
Changing the past doesn't change the future.
Look, we go back, we get the
stones before Thanos gets them...
Thanos doesn't have the stones.
Problem solved.
- Bingo.
- That's not how it works.
- Well, that's what I heard.
- What? By who? Who told you that?
Star Trek, Terminator,
TimeCop, Time After Time,
- Quantum Leap.
- A Wrinkle in Time,
- Somewhere in Time,
- Hot Tub Time Machine.
Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. Basically,
any movie that deals with time travel.
Die Hard? No, it's not...
This is known.
I don't know why everyone believes
that, but that isn't true.
Think about it: If you travel to the
past, that past becomes your future.
And your former present
becomes the past.
Which can't now be changed
by your new future...
Exactly.
So Back to the Future's
a bunch of bullshit?
All right, Clint. We're going in 3..
2.. 1...
Cooper?
- Where are my headphones?
- Lila?
Lila! No!
Dad?
Dad?
Hey, hey. Look at me. You okay?
Yeah.
It worked.
It worked.
Okay, so the "how" works.
Now we gotta figure out the
"when," and the "where."
Almost everyone in this
room has had an encounter
with at least one of the
six Infinity Stones.
Well, I'd subtitute the
word 'encounter' for 'damn
near been killed by one of
the six Infinity Stones.'
I haven't. I don't even know what
the hell you're all talking about.
Regardless, we only have enough Pym
Particles for one round trip each,
and these stones have been in a lot of
different places throughout history.
Our history. So, not a lot of
convenient spots to just drop in.
- Which means we have to pick our targets.
- Correct.
So. Let's start
with the Aether.
Thor, what do you know?
Is he asleep?
Where to start? Umm...
The Aether, first,
is not a stone.
Someone's called it a stone before.
Ahem...
It's more of a... an angry
sludge, sort of thing. So...
Someone's gonna need to amend
that, and stop saying that.
Here's an interesting
story, though.
About the Aether. My
grandafther, many years
ago, had to hide the stone
from the Dark Elves.
Scary beings. So Jane...
Oh, there she is. That's Jane...
She's... an old flame of mine.
She... she stuck her hand
inside a rock this one time...
and then the Aether stuck
itself inside her.
And, she became very, very sick.
So I had to take her to
Asgard, which is where I'm from.
And we had to try and fix her.
We were dating at the time, you see. I
got to introduce her to my Mother...
who's dead, and umm....
Oh, you know. Jane and I aren't
even dating anymore, so...
These things happen though, you know.
Nothing lasts forever.
- The only thing that...
- Why don't you come sit down.
I'm not done yet. The only thing that
is permanent in life, is impermanence.
Awesome.
Eggs? Breakfast?
No. I'd like a Bloody Mary.
Quill said he stole the
Power Stone from Morag.
- Is that a person?
- Morag's a planet.
Quill was a person.
Like a planet? Like
in outer space?
Oh, look. It's like a little
puppy, all happy and everything.
Do you wanna go to space? You
wanna go to space, puppy?
I'll take you to space.
- Thanos found the Soul Stone on Vormir.
- What is Vormir?
A dominion of death, at the very
center of Celestial existence.
It's where... Thanos
murdered my sister.
Noted.
- That Time Stone guy...
- Doctor Strange.
Yeah, what kind
of doctor was he?
- Neurostuff meets rabbit from a hat.
- Nice place in the village, though.
- Yeah. Sullivan Street.
- Hmm... Bleecker.
Wait, he lived in New York?
- No. He lived in Toronto.
- Yeah, not Bleecker. It's Sullivan.
Guys, if you pick the right year,
there are three stones in New York.
Shut the front door!
All right. We have a plan.
Six stones, three
teams, one shot.
Five years ago, we lost.
All of us.
We lost friends...
We lost family...
We lost a part of ourselves.
Today, we have a chance
to take it all back.
You know your teams, you
know your missions.
Get the stones, get them back.
One round trip each. No mistakes.
No do-overs.
Most of us are going
somewhere we know.
But it doesn't mean we
should know what to expect.
Be careful. Look out
for each other.
This is the fight of our lives.
And we're gonna win.
Whatever it takes.
Good luck.
- He's pretty good at that.
- Right?
All right. You heard the man.
Stroke those keys, jelly green.
Tractors engaged.
You promise to bring that
back in one piece, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah. Okay.
- I'll do my best.
- As promises go, that was pretty lame.
See you in a minute.
All right, we all have our assignments.
Two stones uptown, one stone, down.
Stay low. Keep an
eye on the clock.
Feel free to smash if
things don't go your way.
I think it's gratuitous,
but whatever.
I'd be careful going that way.
We just had the floors waxed.
Ma'am, I'm looking
for Doctor Strange.
You're about... five
years too early.
Stephen Strange is currently performing
surgery about twenty blocks that way.
What do you want from him?
That, actually.
Ah.
- I'm afraid not.
- Sorry, but I wasn't asking.
- You don't wanna do this.
- You're right. I don't.
But I need that stone, and
I don't have time to...
Let's start over, shall we?
That's Jane.
All right.
Here's the deal, Tubby:
You're gonna charm her and I'm
gonna poke her with this thing
and extract the Reality Stone
and get gone, lickety-split.
I'll be right back, okay? There's a
wine cellar, that's just down there.
My father used to fish
with a barrel of ale.
- I'll see if the cellar has a couple of...
- Hey! Aren't you drunk enough already?
Who's the fancy broad?
It's my Mother.
She dies today.
Oh. That's today?
I can't do this.
I can't do this.
I shouldn't be here. I shouldn't have come.
This was a bad idea.
- Come here.
- No, no, no. I think I'm having...
- I'm having a panic attack.
- Come here. Right here.
You think you're the only one who lost
people? What do you think we're doing here?
I lost the only
family I ever had.
Quill, Groot, Drax, the chick
with the antenna, all gone.
Now, I get you miss your Mom.
But she's gone. Really gone.
And there are plenty of people
who are only kinda gone.
But you can help them.
So is it too much to ask that you
brush the crumbs outta your beard,
make schmoopy talk to Pretty
Pants, and when she's not looking,
suck out the Infinity Stone and
help me get my family back?
Okay.
- Are you crying?
- No...
Yes!
Get it together!
You can do this.
You can do this.
All right?
- Yes, I can.
- Good.
I can do this.
I can't do this.
Alright, Heartbreaker. She's alone.
This is our shot.
Thor?
Thor!
Alright. Bring it down low.
Right on that line. That's it.
Down, down.
Hey, can we hurry it up?
Guys, chop-chop. Come on.
We're on the clock.
All that, is really helpful.
- Take care, okay?
- Yeah.
Take that stone and come back.
No messing around.
- Hey.
- You got this.
- Let's get it done.
- Yes, sir.
See you back.
You guys watch each other's six.
Yeah.
The coordinates for
Vormir are laid in.
All they have to do
is not fall out.
We're a long way from Budapest.
Okay, so, uhh...
We just wait around for this
Quill guy to show up and
then he leads us to the
Power Stone, is that it?
Let's take cover.
We're not the only ones in
2014 looking for the stones.
Wait a minute, what are
you talking about right
now? Who else is looking
for these stones?
My father, my sister...
- and me.
- And you?
Where are you right now?
- You're welcome.
- I didn't ask for your help.
And yet, you always need it.
Get up.
- Father wants us back on the ship.
- Why?
He's found an Infinity Stone.
- Where?
- On a planet called Morag.
Father's plan is
finally in motion.
- One stone isn't six, Nebula.
- It's a start.
If he gets all of them...
Ronan's located the Power Stone.
I'm dispatching you to his ship.
- He won't like that.
- His alternative is death, then.
Ronan's obsession
clouds his judgement.
We will not fail you, Father.
No, you won't.
I swear...
I will make you proud.
We just, wait around for
this Quill guy to show up,
and then he leads us to the
Power Stone, is that it?
Let's take cover.
We're not the only ones in
2014 looking for the stones.
- Who was that?
- I don't know...
My head is splitting...
I don't know...
Her synaptic drive was
probably damaged in battle.
Bring her to my ship.
Got to hustle, Cap. Things look like
they're just about wrapped up here.
Got it. I'm approaching
the elevator now.
If it's all the same to you...
I'll have that drink now.
All right. Good one. No standing around,
I'm closing up this door for later.
By the way, feel
free to clean up.
Ugh, Mr. Rogers. I almost
forgot that that suit
- did nothing for your ass.
- No one asked you to look.
I think you look great, Cap.
As far as I'm concerned,
that's America's ass.
- Uhh, magic wand?
- STRIKE team's coming to secure it.
We can take that
off your hands.
By all means.
- Careful with that thing!
- Unless you want your mind erased.
- Not in a fun way.
- We promise to be careful.
- Who are these guys?
- They are SHIELD...
Well, actually Hydra. But,
we didn't know that yet.
Seriously, you didn't? I mean...
they look like bad guys.
You're small, but
you're talking loud.
On my way down to
coordinate search and rescue.
On my way down to
coordinate search and rescue!
I mean, honestly! How do
you think you'll be...
Shut up.
All right, you're up, little buddy.
There's our stone.
Alright. Flick me.
- Whoa! Whoa, whoa.
- Hey! Buddy.
What do you think? Maximum
occupancy has been reached.
- Take the stairs!
- Yeah. Stop. Stop!
Take the stairs.
Take the stairs!
All right, Cap. I got our scepter in the
elevator just passing the 80th floor.
On it.
- Head to the lobby.
- Alright. I'll see you there.
Evidence secure. We're
en route to Dr. List.
No. No hitches at all, Mr.
Secretary.
Captain. I thought you were
coordinating search and rescue?
Change of plans.
Hey, Cap.
Rumlow.
I just got a call from the Secretary. I'm
gonna be running point on the scepter.
Sir? I don't understand.
We got word there may be
an attempt to steal it.
Sorry, Cap.
I can't give you the scepter.
- I'm gonna have to call the Director.
- That's okay. Trust me.
Hail Hydra.
So many stairs!
Thumbelina, do you copy?
I've got eyes on the prize.
- It is go-time.
- Bombs away.
Is, is that Axe body spray?
Yeah, I had a can just
for emergencies. Relax.
- Can we focus, please?
- I'm going inside you. Now.
May I ask you
where you're going?
To lunch and then Asgard.
I'm sorry, you are?
Alexander Pierce. He's the man, one
of the folks behind Nick Fury.
My friends call me Mr. Secretary.
I'm gonna have to ask you to
turn that prisoner over to me.
- Loki will be answering to Odin himself.
- Oh, he's gonna answer to us.
Odin can have what's left. And
I'm gonna need that case.
That's been SHIELD property
for over 70 years.
Hand over the case, Stark.
All right, move it, Stuart Little. Things
are getting dicey up here. Let's go.
I'm not gonna argue who's got the
higher authority here, all right?
You promise me you won't die?
You're only giving me a
mild cardiac dysrythmia.
That doesn't sound mild.
I need the case.
I know you got a lotta pull.
I'm just saying...
Okay. Then give me the case.
Do it, Lang!
- Get your hands off!
- Window's closing. Pull my pin!
Here goes!
- Stark?
- Stark!
Look, he's convulsing.
Give him air!
- Medic!
- Medic!
You got some help!
Stark, you--- your
chest machine?
Breathe! Breathe!
Good job. Meet me in the alley.
I'm gonna grab a quick slice.
No stairs!
You'll be fine, Stark.
Stay with us!
I'll try something, okay? I have
no idea if it's gonna work.
Yes!
That worked a treat.
That was so crazy!
I had no idea if
that was gonna work.
- The case...
- The case. It's, uhh...
Where's the case? Where's Loki?
Loki!
- That wasn't supposed to happen, was it?
- Oh, we blew it.
Loki!?
Tony, what's going on?
Tell me you found that cube.
Oh, you gotta be shitting me.
I have eyes on Loki. 14th floor.
I'm not Loki.
And I don't wanna hurt you.
I can do this all day.
Yeah, I know. I know.
Where did you get this?
Bucky... is... alive!
What?
That is America's ass.
- Please, please!
- I'm sorry. I can't help you, Bruce.
If I give up the Time Stone to help
your reality, I'm dooming my own.
With all due respect, I'm not sure
the science really supports that.
The Infinity Stones create what you
experience as the flow of time.
Remove one of the stones,
and that flow splits.
Now this may benefit your reality.
But my new one, not so much.
In this new branched reality, without our
chief weapon against the forces of darkness,
our world will be overrun.
Millions will suffer.
So, tell me, doctor, can your
science prevent all that?
No. But we can erase it.
Because once we're done with the stones, we
can return each one into its own timeline
at the moment it was taken.
So, chronologically...
In that reality....
it never left.
Yes, but you're leaving out
the most important part.
In order to return the
stones, you have to survive.
We will. I will. I promise.
I can't risk this
reality on a promise.
It's the duty, of the Sorcerer
Supreme to protect the Time Stone.
Then why the hell did
Strange give it away?
- What did you say?
- Strange. He gave it away.
He gave it to Thanos.
- Willingly?
- Yes.
- Why?
- I have no idea. Maybe he made a mistake.
Or I did.
Strange was meant to
be the best of us.
So he must've done
it for a reason.
I fear you might be right.
Thank you.
I'm counting on you, Bruce.
We all are.
Run diagnostics.
Show me her memory file.
Sire, the file appears entangled.
It was a memory, but not hers.
There's another consciousness
sharing her network.
Another Nebula.
Impossible.
This duplicate carries a time stamp...
from nine years in the future.
Where is this other Nebula?
In our solar system.
On Morag.
- Can you access her?
- Yes. The two are linked.
Search the duplicate's
memories, for Infinity Stones.
And these stones have been in a lot of
different places throughout history.
Our history. So, not a lot of
convenient spots to just drop in.
- Which means we have to pick our targets.
- Correct.
Freeze image.
Terrans.
Avengers.
Unruly wretches. What's
that reflection?
Amplify this, Maw.
I don't understand.
- Two Nebulas.
- No. The same Nebula.
From two different times.
Set course for Morag. Scan
the duplicate's memories.
I want to see everything.
My ladies, I'll see you after.
Go on.
- What are you doing?
- Ahh!
You're better off leaving the
sneaking to your brother.
Yeah, I was simply just
going for a walk, and uh...
What are you wearing?
I always wear this. This
is one of my favorites.
What's wrong with your eye?
Oh, my eye. That's... you
remember the Battle of Haroquin?
When I got hit in the
face with a broadsword?
You're not the Thor I
know at all, are you?
Yes, I am.
The future hasn't been
kind to you, has it?
I didn't say I'm
from the future.
I was raised by witches, boy.
I see with more than
eyes, and you know that.
I am totally, totally
from the future!
Yes, you are.
- I really need to talk to you.
- We can talk.
His head was over there...
His body over there...
What was the point.
I was too late.
I was just standing there.
- Some idiot with an ax.
- You're no idiot.
You're here aren't you? Seeking counsel
from the wisest person in Asgard.
- I guess, yeah.
- Idiot? No.
- A failure? Absolutely.
- That's a little bit harsh.
You do know what
that makes you?
Just like everyone else.
I'm not supposed to be
like everyone else, am I?
Everyone fails at who they
are supposed to be, Thor.
The measure of a
person, of a hero
is how well they succeed
at being who they are.
I really missed you, Mum.
Thor! I got it!
Get that rabbit!
- Ma, I have to tell you something.
- No, son. You don't.
You're here to repair
your future, not mine.
- But this is about your future.
- It's none of my business.
Hey.
You must be Mom.
I got the thing. Come
on, we got to move.
- I wish we had more time.
- This was a gift.
And you're going to be the
man you're meant to be.
- I love you, Mom.
- I love you.
And eat a salad.
- Come on. We gotta go.
- Goodbye.
- Three... two...
- No, wait!
Wh- what am I looking at?
Oh, sometimes it takes a second.
I'm still worthy.
Oh, boy.
Goodbye, Mom.
So he's an idiot?
What's that?
The tool of a thief.
Whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa...
This is the part where spikes come out,
with skeletons on the end and everything...
What are you talking about?
When you break into a place called
the temple of the Power Stone,
There's gonna be a bunch of booby
traps--- Okay. All right. Go ahead.
I wasn't always like this.
Me either.
But we work with
what we got, right?
Sync up.
Three.. two.. one...
You murdered trillions!
You should be grateful.
- Where are the stones?
- Gone.
- Reduced to atoms.
- You used them two days ago.
I used the stones to destroy the stones.
It nearly killed me.
But the work is done.
It always will be.
I am inevitable.
- What did you do to them?
- Nothing. Yet.
They're not trying to stop something
I'm going to do in our time.
They're trying to undo something
I've already done in theirs.
The stones...
I found them all.
I won.
Tipped the cosmic
scales to balance.
This is your future.
It's my destiny.
My father is many things. A
liar is not one of them.
Thank you, Daughter.
Perhaps I treated
you too harshly...
And that, is destiny fulfilled.
Sire, your Daughter...
No...
...is a traitor.
That's not me. It's not. I could never...
I would never betray you. Never.
I know.
And you'll have the
chance to prove it.
No...
He knows!
Barton? Barton, come in.
Romanoff? Come in, we have a problem.
Come on!
Come in, we have a prob....
Thanos knows.
Thanos...
Cap...
Sorry, buddy.
We got a problem.
Huh. Yeah, we do.
- Well, what are we gonna do now?
- You know what, give me a break, Steve.
I just got hit in the
head with a Hulk.
You said that we had one shot.
This, this was our shot.
We shot it. It's shot. Six stones or nothing.
Six stones or nothing.
You're repeating yourself, you know that?
You're repeating yourself.
You're repeating yourself.
You're repeating yourself.
- No!
- Come on.
You never wanted a time heist, you
went on board with the time heist...
- I dropped the ball.
- You ruined the time heist.
- Is that what I did?
- Yeah!
Are there any other options
with the Tesseract?
No, no, no. There's
no other options.
There's no do-overs. We're
not going anywhere else.
We have one particle left. Each.
That's it, alright? We use that...
Bye, bye. You're not going home.
Yeah, well if we don't try...
then no one else is
going home, either.
I got it.
There's another way. To retake the
Tesseract and acquire new particles.
We'll stroll down memory lane.
Military installation, Garden State.
Why were they both there?
They were there at a...I've
a vaguely exact idea.
How vague?
What are you talking about?
Where are we going?
- I know for a fact they were there...
- Who's they?
- What are we doing?
- And I know how I know.
Guys, what's up? What is it?
Well, it looks like
we're improvising.
- Right.
- What are we improvising?
Scott, get this back
to the compound.
Suit up.
What's in New Jersey?
- 0-4, 0-4...
- Uhh, 0-7.
- 0-7.
- Excuse me...
1-9-7-0.
- Are you sure?
- Cap. Captain. Steve, sorry.
America. Rogers. Look,
if you do this,
and this doesn't work,
you're not coming back.
Thanks for the pep
talk, pissant.
You trust me?
I do.
Your call.
Here we go.
Hey, man!
Make love, not war!
Clearly, you weren't
actually born here, right?
The idea of me was.
Right. Well, imagine
you're SHIELD, running a
quasi-fascistic
intelligence organization.
Where do you hide it?
In plain sight.
Good luck on your
mission, Captain.
Good luck on your
project, doctor.
You're new here?
Not exactly.
Gotcha.
Back in the game.
Arnim, you in there?
Arnim?
Hey!
The door's this way, pal.
Oh, yeah.
I'm looking for Dr. Zola.
Have you seen him?
Yeah, no, Dr. Zol... No,
I haven't seen a soul.
Pardon me.
Do I know you?
No, sir. I'm, a...
visitor from MIT.
Huh. MIT.
Got a name?
Howard.
Well that'll be
easy to remember.
Howard...
...Potts.
Well, I'm Howard Stark.
Hi.
Shit. Now, don't pull it.
Yeah...
You look a little green around
the gills there, Potts.
I'm fine. Just, long hours.
Wanna get some air?
- Hello, Potts.
- Yeah. That would be swell.
- That way.
- Okay.
Need your briefcase?
You're not one of
those, are ya, Potts?
- Hello.
- Dr. Pym?
That would be the number
that you called. Yes.
This is Capt. Stevens
from shipping.
- We have a package for you.
- Bring it up.
Well, that's the thing, sir.
We can't.
I'm confused. I thought
that was your job.
Well, it's just... Sir,
the box is glowing and,
to be honest, some of our mail
guys aren't feeling that great.
They didn't know
better, did they?
Yeah, they did. You
better get down here.
Excuse me. Out of the way!
So, flowers and sauerkraut. You
got a big date tonight?
My wife's expecting.
And, uh... Too much
time in the office.
- Congratulations.
- Thanks. Hold this, will you?
Yeah, sure.
- How far along is she?
- I don't know... uh...
She's at the point where she can't
stand the sound of my chewing.
I guess I'll be eating
dinner in the pantry again.
I have a little girl.
A girl would be nice. Less of a chance
she'd turn out exactly like me.
What'd be so awful about that?
Let's just say that the greater
good has rarely outweighed
my own self-interests.
- And you've never seen these 2 men before?
- No, I've got an eye for this.
- The 2 of them looked fishy.
- Can you describe them?
- Well, one of them had a hippie beard.
- Hippie? Like Bee Gees or Mungo Jerry?
Definitely Mungo Jerry.
Yeah, this is Chesler. I
need every available MPs
on sub-level 6. We have
a potential breach.
So, where are you
at with names?
Well, if it's a boy,
my wife likes Almanzo.
Might wanna let that stew on.
You got time.
Let me ask you a question.
When your kid was born...
- were you nervous?
- Wildly. Yeah.
Did you feel qualified?
Like you had any idea how to
successfully operate that thing?
I literally pieced it
together as I went along,
I thought about what
my Dad did, and...
My old man, he never met a problem
he couldn't solve with a belt.
I thought my Dad
was tough on me.
And now, looking back, I just
remember the good stuff, you know.
- He did drop the odd pearl.
- Yeah? Like what?
"No amount of money ever
bought a second of time."
Smart guy.
He did his best.
Let me tell you. That
kid's not even here yet
and, there's nothing I
wouldn't do for him.
Good to meet you, Potts.
Yeah, Howard...
Everything's gonna be all right.
Thank you for everything...
...you've done for
this country.
Jarvis.
Have we ever met that guy?
Seems very familiar.
Weird beard, though.
- You're weak.
- I'm you.
You can stop this.
You know you want to.
Did you see what
happens in the future?
Thanos finds the Soul Stone.
You wanna know
how he does that?
You wanna know, what
he does to you?
That's enough.
You disgust me.
But, that doesn't
mean you're useless.
How do I look?
Wow...
Under different circumstances,
this would be totally awesome.
I bet the raccoon didn't
have to climb a mountain.
Technically, he's not
a raccoon, you know.
Whatever. He eats garbage.
Welcome.
Natasha, daughter of Ivan.
Clint, son of Edith.
Who are you?
Consider me a guide.
To you, and to all who
seek the Soul Stone.
Okay. You tell us where it is.
Then we'll be on our way.
If only it were that easy.
What you seek lies
in front of you...
...as does what you fear.
The stone is down there.
For one of you.
For the other...
In order to take the stone, you
must lose that which you love.
An everlasting exchange.
A soul, for a soul.
How's it going?
Jesus...
Maybe he's making this shit up.
No. I don't think so.
Why, 'cause he knows
your Daddy's name?
I didn't.
Thanos left here with the stone
without his daughter.
It's not a coincidence.
Yeah.
Whatever it takes.
Whatever it takes.
If we don't get that stone,
billions of people stay dead.
Then I guess we both
know who it's gotta be.
I guess we do.
I'm starting to think, we've been
different people here, Natasha.
For the last five years I've been trying
to do one thing: Get to right here.
That's all it's been about.
Bringing everybody back.
- Oh, don't you get all decent on me now.
- What, you think I wanna do it?
I'm trying to save
your life, you idiot.
Yeah well, I don't want
you to, because I...
Natasha, you know
what I've done.
You know what I've become.
I don't judge people on
their worst mistakes.
Maybe you should.
You didn't.
You're a pain in my
ass, you know that?
Okay.
You win.
Tell my family I love them.
You tell them yourself.
Damn you!
Let me go.
No.
Please, no.
It's okay.
Please...
Did we get them all?
You telling me this'll
actually work?
Clint, where's Nat?
Do we know if she had family?
Yeah. Us.
What?
I just asked him a question...
Yeah, you're acting like she's dead.
Why are we acting like she's dead?
We have the stones, right?
As long as we have
the stones, Cap, we can bring
her back, isn't that right?
So stop this shit. We're the
Avengers, get it together.
We can't get her back.
- Wha- what?
- It can't be undone. It can't.
I'm sorry. No offense, but you're
a very earthly being. Okay?
We're talking about space magic.
And "can't" seems very () don't you think?
Look, I know that I'm way
outside my paygrade here.
But she still isn't
here, is she?
- Now that's my point.
- It can't be undone.
Or that's at least what the,
great floating guy had to say.
Maybe you wanna go talk to him?
Okay?
Go grab your hammer, and you
go fly and you talk to him.
It was supposed to be me.
She sacrificed her life for that
goddamned stone. She bet her life on it.
She's not coming back.
We have to make it worth it.
We have to.
We will.
Boom!
All right. The glove's ready.
Question is, who's gonna
snap their freaking fingers?
I'll do it.
It's okay.
- No, no, no, no. Stop. Stop.
- Hey, hey...
Thor, just wait.
We haven't decided who's
gonna put that on yet.
I'm sorry. What, were you just sitting
around waiting for the right opportunity?
We should at least discuss it.
Look, us sitting here staring at that
thing is not gonna bring everybody back.
I'm the strongest Avenger, okay? So
this responsibility falls upon me.
It's my duty. It's not that... It's...
stop it! Just let me.
Just let me do it. Just
let me do something good.
- Something great.
- Look...
It's not just the fact that
that glove is channeling
enough energy to light up a
continent, I'm telling you
you're in no condition.
What do you think is coursing
through my veins right now?
Cheez Whiz?
- Lightning.
- Yeah.
Lightning won't help you, pal.
It's gotta be me.
You saw what those stones did to Thanos.
It almost killed him.
None of you could survive.
How do we know you will?
I don't. But the
radiation's mostly gamma.
It's like...
I was meant for this.
Good to go, yeah?
Let's do it.
You remember everyone
Thanos snapped away five
years ago and just bringing
them back to now, today.
Don't change anything
from the last five years.
Got it.
Friday, do me a favor and
activate protocol 8.
Yes, boss.
Everybody comes home.
- Take it off. Take it off!
- No, wait. Bruce, are you okay?
Talk to me, Banner.
I'm okay. I'm okay.
Bruce!
Don't move him.
- Did it work?
- Worth a shot. It's over. It's okay.
Honey.
Honey.
Guys...
I think it worked!
I can't breathe. I can't breathe!
I can't breathe.
Canopy. Canopy. Canopy.
Rhodey, Rocket, get outta here!
Hurry up! Hurry up!
Come on!
Rhodey!
Mayday, mayday! Does anybody copy? We're
in the lower level, it's flooding!
- What?
- We're drowning! Does anybody copy? Mayday!
Wait! I'm here! I'm
here, can you hear me?
Cap?
Daughter.
Yes, Father.
So, this is the future.
Well done.
Thank you, Father. They
suspected nothing.
The arrogant never do.
Go.
Find the stones.
Bring them to me.
What will you do?
Wait.
Tell me something.
In the future, what
happens to you and me?
I tried to kill you.
Several times.
But eventually,
we become friends.
We become sisters.
Come on.
We can stop him.
Come on, buddy. Wake up.
That's my man.
You lose this again,
I'm keeping it.
What happened?
We messed with time.
It tends to mess back.
You'll see.
What's he been doing?
Absolutely nothing.
Where are the stones?
Lost somewhere under all this.
All I know is he
doesn't have them.
So we keep it that way.
- You know it's a trap, right?
- Yeah...
I don't much care.
Good.
Just as long as we're
all in agreement.
Let's kill him
properly this time.
You could not live
with your own failure.
Where did that bring you?
Back to me.
I thought by eliminating
half of life,
the other half would thrive.
But you've shown me,
that's impossible.
And as long as there are those
that remember what was,
there will always be those that
are unable to accept what can be.
They will resist.
Yep. We're all
kinds of stubborn.
I'm thankful.
Because now, I know
what I must do.
I will shred this universe
down to its last atom.
And then...
With the stones you've collected
for me, create a new one.
Teeming with life,
but knows not what it has lost
but only what it has been given.
A grateful universe.
Born out of blood.
They'll never know it.
Because you won't be
alive to tell them.
See you on the other side, man.
Hang on! I'm coming!
Oh, hey...
I know you.
Father. I have the stones.
What?!
Stop.
You're betraying us?
You don't have to do this.
I am... this.
No, you're not.
You've seen what we become.
Nebula, listen to her.
You can change.
He won't let me.
No!
Okay, Thor. Hit me.
Boss, wake up.
I knew it!
In all my years of conquest...
violence...
slaughter...
It was never personal.
But I'll tell you now...
what I'm about to do
to your stubborn,
annoying little planet...
I'm gonna enjoy it.
Very, very much.
Cap, you hear me?
Cap, it's Sam.
Can you hear me?
On your left.
Is that everyone?
What, you wanted more?
Avengers...
... assemble.
No, no. Give me that.
You have the little one.
Hey!
Holy cow.
You will not believe what's been going on.
Do you remember when we were in space?
And I got all dusty? I must've passed
out, 'cause I woke up, and you were gone.
But Doctor Strange was there, right?
He was like,
"It's been five years.
Come on, they need us!"
And then he started doing the yellow
sparkly thing that he does all the time...
What are you doing?
This is nice.
Gamora?
I thought I lost you.
Don't... touch... me!
You missed the first time...
then you got them
both the second time.
This is the one? Seriously?
The choices were him, or a tree.
Cap, what do you want me to
do with this damn thing?
Get those stones as
far away as possible!
No!
We need to get them back
where they came from.
No way to get them back. Thanos
destroyed the quantum tunnel.
Hold on!
That wasn't our
only time machine.
Anyone see an ugly
brown van up there?
Yes!
But you're not gonna
like where it's parked.
Scott, how long you need
to get that thing working?
Maybe ten minutes.
Get it started. We'll
get the stones to you.
We're on it, Cap.
Hey.
You said one out of 14
million, we win, yeah?
Tell me this is it.
If I tell you what
happens, it won't happen.
You better be right.
It's a mess back here.
It's... it's dead.
- What?
- It's dead.
I have to hotwire it.
Where's Nebula?
She's not responding.
Sire!
Clint!
Give it to me.
You took everything from me.
I don't even know who you are.
You will.
I got it!
Activate Instant Kill!
Rain fire!
But Sire, our troops!
Just do it!
Is anyone else seeing this?
I got this.
I got this!
Okay, I don't got this.
- Help! Somebody, help!
- Hey, Queens. Heads up.
Hang on. I got you, kid.
Hey! Nice to meet---
Oh! My God!
What the hell is this?
Friday, what are they firing at?
Something just entered
the upper atmosphere.
Oh, yeah!
Danvers, we need an assist here.
Hi. I'm Peter Parker.
Hey, Peter Parker. Got
something for me?
I don't know how you're
gonna get through all that.
Don't worry.
She's got help.
I am... inevitable.
And I...
am...
... Iron Man.
Mr. Stark?
Hey...
Mr. Stark? Can you hear me?
It's Peter.
We won.
Mr. Stark....
We won, Mr. Stark.
We won and you did it, sir.
You did it.
I'm sorry... Tony...
- Hey.
- Hey, Pep...
- Friday?
- Life functions critical.
Tony.
Look at me.
We're gonna be okay.
You can rest now.
Everybody wants a
happy ending, right?
But it doesn't always
roll that way.
Maybe this time.
I'm hoping if you
play this back,
it's in celebration.
I hope families are reunited,
I hope we get it back,
and something like a
normal version of the
planet has been restored.
If there ever was such a thing.
God, what a world.
Universe, now.
If you told me ten years
ago that we weren't alone,
let alone, you know,
to this extent,
I mean, I wouldn't have been surprised.
But come on, you know?
That epic forces of darkness and
light that have come into play.
And, for better or worse,
that's the reality Morgan's gonna
have to find a way to grow up in.
So I found the time and I
recorded a little greeting...
In the case of an untimely death.
On my part.
Not that, death in any
time isn't untimely.
This time travel thing that we're
gonna try and pull off tomorrow,
it's, it's got me scratching
my head about this.
But then again, that's the hero gig.
Part of the journey is the end.
Everything's gonna work out
exactly the way it's supposed to.
I love you 3,000.
You know, I wish
there was a way...
that I could let her know.
That we won.
We did it.
She knows.
They both do.
How you doing, Squirt?
- Good.
- You good?
- Okay. You hungry?
- Mm-hmm.
- What do you want?
- Cheeseburgers.
You know your Dad
liked cheeseburgers?
I'm gonna get you all the
cheeseburgers you want.
Okay.
So, when can we expect you back?
- About that...
- Thor. Your people need a king.
No, they already have one.
That's funny.
You're being serious?
It's time for me to be
who I am rather than
who I'm supposed to be.
But you, you're a leader.
That's who you are.
You know I'd make a lot
of changes around here.
I'm counting on it.
Your Majesty.
What will you do?
I'm not sure.
For the first time in a
thousand years, I...
I have no path. I do
have a ride, though.
Move it or lose it, hairbag.
Well, here we are.
Tree! Good to see you.
Well...
The As-Guardians of the
Galaxy back together again.
Where to first?
Just so you know, this is my ship still.
I'm in charge.
I know. I know. Of
course, you are.
Of course.
See, you say of course, but
then you touch the map.
It makes you think that maybe you
didn't realize I was in charge.
Quail, that's your own
insecurities in there. Okay?
I'm merely trying to be of service.
An assistant.
- Quill.
- That's what I said.
You should fight one another
for the honor of leadership.
Sounds fair.
- It's not necessary.
- It's not.
Okay?
I got some blasters unless
you guys wanna use knives.
Oh, yes. Please, use knives.
I am Groot.
Not necessary.
There shall be no
knifing one another.
Everybody knows who's in charge.
It's me.
Yes, you! Of course!
Of course. Of course.
Remember...
You have to return the stones at
the exact moment you got them.
Or you're gonna open up a bunch
of nasty alternative realities.
Don't worry, Bruce.
Clip all the branches.
You know, I tried.
When I had the gauntlet, the stones,
I really tried to bring her back.
- I miss them, man.
- Me, too.
You know, if you want,
I can come with you.
You're a good man, Sam.
This one's on me, though.
Don't do anything stupid
'till I get back.
How can I? You're taking
all the stupid with you.
Gonna miss you, Buddy.
It's gonna be okay, Buck.
How long is this gonna take?
For him? As long as he
needs, For us, five seconds.
Ready, Cap?
Alright. We'll meet
you back here, okay?
You bet.
Going quantum. Three..
two.. one...
And returning in, five,
four, three, two, one...
Where is he?
I don't know. He blew right by his
time stamp. He should be here.
- Well, get him back.
- I'm trying.
- Get him the hell back.
- I said, I'm trying!
Sam.
Go ahead.
Cap?
Hi, Sam.
So did something go wrong,
or did something go right?
Well, after I put the
stones back, I thought...
Maybe I'll try some
of that life Tony was...
telling me to get.
How did that work out for you?
It was beautiful.
I'm happy for you. Truly.
Thank you.
Only thing bumming me
out is the fact I have
to live in a world
without Captain America.
Oh...
That reminds me...
Try it on.
How's it feel?
Like it's someone else's.
It isn't.
Thank you.
I'll do my best.
That's why it's yours.
You wanna tell me about her?
No.
No, I don't think I will.

We&#39;renow one a-piece.I would like to try again.We&#39;re tied up.Feel the tension? It&#39;s fun.That was terrible. Now youhave a chance to win.And you won. Congratulations.Fair game.Good sport.You had fun?It was fun.This thing on?Hey, Miss Potts... Pep.If you find this recording...don&#39;t post it, on social media.It&#39;s gonna be a real tear-jerker.I don&#39;t know if you&#39;reever gonna see these.I don&#39;t even knowif you&#39;re still...Oh, God. I hope so...Today is day 21... uh, 22.You know, if it wasn&#39;t forthe existensial terror ofstaring into theliteral void of space,I&#39;d say, I&#39;m feelingmore better today.The infection&#39;s run its course,thanks to the blue meanie back there.You&#39;d love her. Very practical.Only a tiny bit sadistic.Some fuel cells were cracked during battle, butwe figured out a way to reverse the ion chargeto buy ourselves, about,48 hours of playtime.But it&#39;s now dead in the water.We&#39;re 1,000 lightyearsfrom the nearest 7-11.Oxygen will run outtomorrow morning.That&#39;ll be it.And Pep, I...I know I said nomore surprises, butI gotta say I was really hopingto pull off one last one.But it looks like...Well, you know whatit looks like.Don&#39;t feel bad about this.I mean actually if yougrovel for a couple weeks,and then, move onwith enormous guilt.I should probably lie down.I&#39;m gonna caress myPlease know that...When I drift off, it will begoodbye the whole time...I&#39;ll think about you.Because it&#39;s always you.- Couldn&#39;t stop him.- Neither could I.I lost the kid.Tony, we lost.Is, umm...Oh, my God!It&#39;s okay.It&#39;s been 23 days sinceThanos came to Earth.World governments are in pieces.The parts that are still workingare trying to take a census,And it looks like he did...He did exactly what he said hewas gonna do. Thanos wiped out.....fifty percent ofall living creatures.Where is he now? Where?We don&#39;t know.He just opened a portaland walked through.What&#39;s wrong with him?He&#39;s pissed.He thinks he failed.Which of course he did, but there&#39;s alot of that goin&#39; around, ain&#39;t there?Honestly, at this exact second, Ithought you were a Build-A-Bear.Maybe I am.We&#39;ve been hunting Thanosfor three weeks now.Deep space scans, andsatellites, and we got nothing.- Tony you fought him.- Who told you that?Didn&#39;t fight him.No. He wiped my facewith a planet while aBleecker Street magiciangave away the stone.- That&#39;s what happened. There was no fight...- Okay.Did he give you any clues?Any coordinates, anything?Pfft!I saw this coming a few years back. I hada vision. I didn&#39;t wanna believe it.Thought I was dreaming.- Tony I&#39;m gonna need you to focus.- And I needed you.As in past tense. That trumps whatyou need. It&#39;s too late, buddy.Sorry.You know what I need?I need to shave.- And I believe I rememeber telling- Tony, Tony, Tony...why that otherwise,that what we needed was a suit of armoraround the world. Remember that?Whether it impacted our preciousfreedoms, or not. That&#39;s what we needed.- Well that didn&#39;t work out, did it?- I said we&#39;d lose.You said, &quot;We&#39;ll dothat together, too.&quot;Well guess what, Cap? We lost.You weren&#39;t there.But that&#39;s what we do, right?Our best work after the fact?We&#39;re the Avengers? We&#39;re the Avengers?Not the Prevengers?Okay. You made your point.Just sit down, okay?- No, no. Here&#39;s my... She&#39;s great, by the way.- Tony, sit, sit down!We need you. You&#39;re new blood.Bunch of tired old mills...I got nothing for you, Cap.I got no coordinates,no clues, no strategies,no options...Zero. Zip. Nada. Notrust, you liar...Here, take this. You findhim and you put that on.You hide.- Tony!- I&#39;m fine. I...Bruce gave him a sedative. He&#39;s gonnaprobably be out for the rest of the day.You guys take care of him. And I&#39;ll bringan Bezurian elixir when I come back.- Where are you going?- To kill Thanos.Hey.You know we usually workas a team here, andbetween you and I we&#39;realso a little fragile.We realize up there is more yourterritory but this is our fight, too.- You even know where he is?- I know people who might.Don&#39;t bother.I can tell you where Thanos is.Thanos spent a long timetrying to perfect me.Then when he worked, hetalked about his great plan.Even disassembled, Iwanted to please him.I&#39;d ask, where would we goonce his plan was complete?His answer was always the same.To The Garden.That&#39;s cute. Thanos hasa retirement plan.So where is he, then?When Thanos snapped his fingers,Earth became ground zero for a power surgeof ridiculously cosmic proportions.No one&#39;s ever seen anything like it...until two days ago.On this planet.Thanos is there.He used the stones again.Hey, hey, hey...We&#39;d be going inshort-handed, you know?- Look, he still got the stones, so...- So let&#39;s get him.- We use them to bring everyone back.- Just like that?Yeah. Just like that.Even if there&#39;s a small chancethat we can undo this...I mean, we owe it to everyonewho&#39;s not in this room to try.If we do this, how do we know it&#39;s gonnaend any differently than it did before?Because before, youdidn&#39;t have me.Hey, new girl, everybody in thisroom is about that superhero life.And if you don&#39;t mind my asking, wherethe hell have you been all this time?There are a lot of otherplanets in the universe.And unfortunately, theydidn&#39;t have you guys.I like this one.Let&#39;s go get thisson of a bitch.Okay. Who here hasn&#39;tbeen to space?You better not throwup on my ship.Approaching jump in 3.. 2.. 1.I&#39;ll head down for recon.- This is gonna work Steve.- I know it will.Because I don&#39;t know whatI&#39;m gonna do if it doesn&#39;t.No satellites, no ships, no armies,no ground defenses of any kind.It&#39;s just him.Then that&#39;s enough.Oh, no.Where are they?Answer the question.The universerequired correction.After that, the stones servedno purpose, beyond temptation.You murdered trillions!You should be grateful.- Where are the stones?- Gone.- Reduced to atoms.- You used them two days ago.I used the stones todestroy the stones.It nearly killed me.But the work is done.It always will be.I am inevitable.We have to tear this place apart.He has to be lying.My father is many things.A liar is not one of them.Thank you, Daughter.Perhaps I treatedyou too harshly...What... what did you do?I went for the head.So I, uh...Went on a date the other day.It&#39;s the first time in five years,you know? Sit there, dinner...I didn&#39;t know whatto talk about.What did you talk about?Same old crap, you know? Howthings have changed, and...My job, his job....How much we miss the Mets.Then things get quiet..He cried as they wereserving the salads.What about you?I cried just before dessert.But I&#39;m seeing himagain tomorrow, so...That&#39;s great.You did the hardest part.You took the jump, youdidn&#39;t know where youwere gonna come down.And that&#39;s it. That&#39;s those littlebrave baby steps you gotta take.To try and become whole again.To try and find purpose.I went in the ice in &#39;45 rightafter I met the love of my life.Woke up 70 years later.You got to move on.Got to move on.The world is in our hands.It&#39;s left to us guys.And we got to dosomething with it.Otherwise...Thanos should&#39;vekilled all of us.What the hell?Hope?Kid! Hey, kid!What the hell happened here?My God...No. Please. Please, please.No, no, no...Excuse me. Sorry.No, Cassie, no.No.No, no.Please, please,please, please....No, Cassie...What?Cassie?Dad?You&#39;re so big!Yeah, we boarded that highlysuspect warship Danvers pinged.It was an infectiousgarbage scowl.So, thanks for the hot tip.- Well, you were closer.- Yeah. And now we smell like garbage.You get a readingon those tremors?It was a mild subductionunder the African plate.Do we have a visual? Howare we handling it?Nat, it&#39;s an earthquakeunder the ocean.We handle it by not handling it.Carol, are we seeingyou here next month?- Not likely.- What, you gonna get another haircut?Listen, fur-face. I&#39;mcovering a lot of territory.The things that arehappening on Earth arehappening everywhere, onthousands of planets.That&#39;s a good point.That&#39;s a good point.So you might not seeme for a long time.All right. Uh, well...This channel is always active.So, anything goes sideways...Anyone&#39;s making troublewhere they shouldn&#39;t...- Comes through me.- Okay.All right.Good luck.- Where are you?- Mexico.The federales found aroom full of bodies.Looks like a bunch of cartel guys. Nevereven had the chance to get their guns off.- It&#39;s probably a rival gang...- Except it isn&#39;t.It&#39;s definitely Barton.What he&#39;s done here, what he&#39;sbeen doing for the last few years,I mean, the scenethat he left...I gotta tell you, there&#39;s a part ofme that doesn&#39;t even wanna find him.Will you find out wherehe&#39;s going next?Nat...Please.Okay.You know I&#39;d offer to clip your dinnerbut you seem pretty miserable already.You here to do your laundry?And to see a friend.Clearly, your friend is fine.You know I saw a pod of whaleswhen I was coming up the bridge.- In the Hudson?- There&#39;s fewer ships, cleaner water.You know, if you&#39;re about to tellme to look on the bright side...Um...I&#39;m about to hit you in the headwith a peanut butter sandwich.Sorry. Force of habit.You know I keep telling everybodythey should move on and... grow.Some do.But not us.- If I move on, who does this?- Maybe it doesn&#39;t need to be done.I used to have nothing.And then I got this.This job.This family.And I was... I wasbetter because of it.And even though...they&#39;re gone...Now, I&#39;m stilltrying to be better.I think we bothneed to get a life.You first.Oh... Hi. Hi!Is anyone home?This is Scott Lang.We met a few years ago, at the airport?In Germany?I got really big andI had my mask on.- You wouldn&#39;t recognize me.- Is this an old message?Ant-Man? Ant-Man, Iknow you know that.It&#39;s the front gate.I need to talk to you guys.Scott.- Are you okay?- Yeah.Have either of you guys everstudied quantum physics?Only in mid-conversation.Alright. So...Five years ago, right before...Thanos,I was in a place calledthe quantum realm.The quantum realm is like itsown microscopic universe.To get in there, you have to beincredibly small. Hope, she&#39;s my...She... she was my...She was supposed to pull me out.And then Thanos happened, and- I got stuck in there.- Sorry. That must&#39;ve been a long 5 years.Yeah, but that&#39;s just it.It wasn&#39;t.For me it was five hours.See, the rules of the quantum realmaren&#39;t like they are up here.Everything is unpredictable. Is thatanybody&#39;s sandwich? I&#39;m starving.Scott.What are you talking about?So...What I&#39;m saying is...Time works differentlyin the quantum realm.The only problem is right now, wedon&#39;t have a way to navigate it.But what if we did?I can&#39;t stop thinking about it. Whatif we could somehow control the chaos,and we could navigate it? What ifthere was a way that we can enterthe quantum realm at a certainpoint in time but thenexit the quantum realm atanother point in time? Like...Like before Thanos.Wait, are you talkingabout a time machine?No. No, of course not.No, not a time machine.It&#39;s more like a...Yeah, a time machine. I know it&#39;s crazy.It&#39;s crazy.But I can&#39;t stop thinking about it.There&#39;s gotta be...Some wa... It&#39;s crazy.I get e-mails from a raccoon. So,nothing sounds crazy anymore.So who do we talk to about this?Chow-time!Morgoona.Morgan H. Stark.Want some lunch?- Define lunch or be disintegrated.- Okay.You should not bewearing that, okay?That is part of a special anniversarygift I&#39;m making for Mom.There you go. Are youthinking about lunch?Want a handful of crickets?- No.- That&#39;s what you want.- How did you find this?- Garage.Really?- Were you looking for it?- No.I found it, though.You like going to the garage, huh?So does Daddy.It&#39;s fine actually. Mom neverwears anything I wear.Now, we know whatit sounds like...Tony after everything you&#39;ve seen,is anything really impossible...Quantum fluctuation messeswith the Planck scale,which then triggers the Deutschproposition. Can we agree on that?Thank you.In Layman&#39;s terms, it meansyou&#39;re not coming home.- I did.- No.You accidentally survived. It&#39;s a---It&#39;s a billion-to-onecosmic fluke.And now you wanna pull a...What do you call it?- A time heist?- Yeah. Time heist.Of course. Why didn&#39;t wethink of this before?Oh! Because it&#39;s laughable?Because it&#39;s a pipedream?The stones are in the past. Wecan go back and we can get them.We can snap our own fingers.We can bring everybody back.Or screw it up worse thanhe already has, right?I don&#39;t believe we would.Gotta say this. Sometimes, Imiss that giddy optimism.However, high hopes won&#39;thelp if there&#39;s no logical,tangible, way for me to safelyexecute said time heist.I believe the most likely outcomewill be our collective demise.Not if we strictly followthe rules of time travel.That means no talking to our past selves,no betting on sporting events...I&#39;m gonna stop youright there, Scott.Are you seriously tellingme that your plan tosave the universe is basedon Back to the Future?- No.- Good. You had me worried there.&#39;Cause that&#39;d be horseshit. That&#39;snot how quantum physics works.Tony...We have to take a stand.We did stand. Andyet, here we are.I know you got a lot on the line.You got a wife, a daughter.But I lost someone very important to me.A lot of people did.And now, now, we have a chance to bringher back. To bring everyone back.And you&#39;re telling methat you won&#39;t even...That&#39;s right, Scott.I won&#39;t. Leave it.Got a kid.Mommy told me tocome and save you.Good job. I&#39;m saved.I wish you&#39;d come here toask me something else.Anything else. Honestly, Imissed you guys, it was...- Oh, and table&#39;s set for six.- Tony, I get it.And I&#39;m happy for you.I really am.But this is a second chance.I got my second chanceright here, Cap.I can&#39;t roll the dice again.If you don&#39;t talk shop,you can stay for lunch.- He&#39;s scared.- He&#39;s not wrong.Yeah, but I mean,what are we gonna do?We need him. What,are we gonna stop?No. I wanna do it right.We&#39;re gonna need areally big brain.Bigger than his?Come on. I feel like I&#39;m the onlyone eating. Try some of that.Have some eggs.I&#39;m so confused.- These are confusing times.- Right. No, no...- That&#39;s not what I meant. I...- No, I get it.I&#39;m kidding! I know. It&#39;s crazy.- I&#39;m wearing shirts now.- Yeah! How? Why?Five years ago wegot our asses beat.Except it was worse for me.Because I lost twice.First, Hulk lost. Then Banner lost.Then, we all lost.- No one blamed you, Bruce.- I did.For years I&#39;ve beentreating the Hulk like he&#39;ssome kind of disease,something to get rid of.But then I started lookingat him as the cure.Eighteen months in a gamma lab. I putthe brains and the brawn together.And now look at me.Best of both worlds.- Excuse me, Mr. Hulk?- Yes?- Can we get a photo?- 100%, little person.Come on, step on up. You mind?Oh.- Say &quot;green.&quot;- Green.Greeeen.- Did you get that?- That&#39;s good.Don&#39;t you wanna grab one with me?I&#39;m Ant-Man.They&#39;re Hulk fans.They don&#39;t know Ant-Man.- Nobody does.- Wait, no, no, he wants to...You want to take apicture with him, right?He&#39;s even saying no he doesn&#39;t.I get it.I don&#39;t want it either. I don&#39;twant a picture with them.- He&#39;s gonna feel bad.- Sorry.- They said they&#39;d do it.- I don&#39;t want it anymore.- You&#39;d feel bad...- Take the goddamn phone.Thank you, Mr. Hulk.No, it&#39;s great, kids.Thank you very much.- Hulk out!- Bruce.- Dab.- Bruce.Listen to your Mom.She knows better.- About we were saying...- Right.The whole time travel do-over?Guys, it&#39;s outside ofmy area of expertise.Well, you pulled this off.I remember a time when thatseemed pretty impossible, too.Look at a mod inspiration,let me see what checks out.So, recommend one last sim beforewe pack it in for the night.This time, in the shape of amobius strip, inverted. Please?Processing...Give me that eigenvalue. That, particlefactoring, and spectral decomp.- Gotta take a second.- Just a moment.And don&#39;t worry if it doesn&#39;t pan out.I&#39;m just kinda...Model rendered.Shit!Shit!What are you doingup, Little Miss?- Shit.- No. We don&#39;t say that.Only Mommy says that word. Shecoined it, it belongs to her.Why you up?&#39;Cause I got some important shitgoing on here. What do you think?No, I got something on my mind.I got something on my mind.- Was it Juice Pops?- Sure was.That&#39;s extortion.Great minds think alike. JuicePops, exactly was on...my mind.You done? Yeah? Now you are.- That face, goes there.- Tell me a story.A story.Once upon a time, a littlegirl went to bed. The end.That ain&#39;t the whole story.Come on, that&#39;s yourfavorite story.I love you tons.I love you 3,000.Wow.3,000. That&#39;s crazy.Go to bed. Or I&#39;llsell all your toys.Night-night.Not that it&#39;s a competition,but she loves me 3,000.You were somewhere inthe low 6 to 900 range.- What you reading?- Just a book on composting.What&#39;s new with composting?- Just ....- I figured it out...by the way.You know, just so we&#39;re talkingabout the same thing...Time travel.What?Wow.That&#39;s...Amazing, and.... terrifying.That&#39;s right.- I got really lucky.- Yeah. I know.- A lot of people didn&#39;t.- No, I can&#39;t help everybody.- It sorta seems like you can.- Not if I stop.I can put a pin in itright now, and stop.Tony...trying to get you to stop has been oneof the few failures of my entire life.I sometimes feel I should put it in a lockedbox and drop it at the bottom of a lake......go to bed.But would you be able to rest?Okay, here we go. Timetravel test number one.Scott, fire up the, uhh...The van thing.Breakers are set. Emergencygenerators are on standby.Good. &#39;Cause if we blow the grid, I don&#39;twanna lose Tiny here in the 1950&#39;s.- Excuse me?- He&#39;s kidding.You can&#39;t say things like that.Just... it was, just a bad joke.- You were kidding, right?- I have no idea.We&#39;re talking about time travel here.Either it&#39;s all a joke, or none of it is.We&#39;re good! Get your helmet on.Scott, I&#39;m gonna send youback a week, but you&#39;ll walkaround for an hour, then bringyou back in 10 seconds.- Makes sense?- Perfectly not confusing.Good luck, Scott. You got this.You&#39;re right. I do,Captain America.On the count of three.3.. 2.. 1..Guys? This doesn&#39;t feel right.- What&#39;s going on? Hold on.- Who is that?- Is that Scott?- Yes, it&#39;s Scott!Ooh! My back!- Can you bring him back?- I&#39;m working on it!A baby.- It&#39;s Scott.- As a baby!Bring Scott back.When I say kill thepower, kill the power.And... kill it!Somebody peed my pants.I don&#39;t know if it was&quot;baby&quot; me or &quot;old&quot; me.Or, just &quot;me&quot; me.Time travel!What?I see this as an absolute win.Why the long face?Let me guess. Heturned into a baby.Among other things, yeah.What are you doing here?That&#39;s the EPR paradox.Instead of pushing Lang through time, youmight&#39;ve wound up pushing time through Lang.It&#39;s tricky. Dangerous. Somebodycoulda cautioned you against it.- You did.- Oh, did I?Thank God, I&#39;m here.Regardless, I fixed it.A fully functioningtime-space GPS.I just want peace.Turns out, resentment iscorrosive, and I hate it.Me, too.We got a shot at gettingthese stones, but Igotta tell you mypriority is to bring backwhat we lost? I hope, yes.Keep what I found? Ihave to, at all costs.And, maybe not dietrying will be nice.Sounds like a deal.- Tony, I don&#39;t know...- Why? He made it for you.Plus, honestly I have to get it out thegarage before Morgan takes it sledding.Thank you, Tony.Will you keep that a little quietly?Didn&#39;t bring one for the whole team.- We are getting, the whole team, yeah?- We&#39;re working on that right now.- Hey, humie! Where&#39;s big green?- Kitchen. I think.- That&#39;s awesome.- Rodent, careful on re-entry.There&#39;s an idiot onthe landing zone.Oh, God!What&#39;s up, regular-sized man?Kind of a step down from a golden palacefor an Avenger highness or whatnot.Hey, have a little compassion, pal.First, they&#39;ve lost Asgard,then half the people. They&#39;re probablyjust happy they have a home.You shouldn&#39;t have come!Valkyrie!Great to see you, Angry Girl.I think I liked you bettereither of the other ways.- This is Rocket.- How you doin&#39;?- He won&#39;t see you.- That bad, huh?We only see him once a month,when he comes in for......supplies.- It&#39;s that bad.- Yeah.What the...Woo! Something died in here.Hello? Thor?Are you here about the cable?The Cinemax ran out two weeks ago,and, sports were all kind of fuzzy...Boys! Oh, my God!My God! How have you been?Come here, you little rascal!No, I&#39;m good! I&#39;m good.That&#39;s not necessary!Hulk, you know my friends,Miek, Korg, right?- Hey, boys!- Hey, guys. Long time no see.Beer&#39;s on the bucket. Feelfree to log on to the wi-fi.No password, obviously.Thor, he&#39;s back. That kid on the TVwho&#39;s called me a dickhead again.- Noobmaster.- Yeah, Noobmaster69.Noobmaster. Hey, it&#39;s Thor again.You know, the God of Thunder?Listen, buddy. If you don&#39;t log offthis game immediately I&#39;m gonna flyhome to your house, come down tothat basement you&#39;re hiding in,rip off your arms thenshove them up your butt!Oh, that&#39;s right. Yes, go cry toyour father, you little weasel!Thank you, Thor.Let me know if hebothers you again, okay?Thank you very much. I will.So you guys want a drink?What are you drinking?We have beer, tequila,all sorts of things.Buddy, you all right?Yes, I&#39;m fine! Why,don&#39;t I look all right?You look like melted ice cream.So, what&#39;s up?We need your help. There might bea chance we could fix everything.What, like the cable? &#39;Cause that&#39;sbeen driving me bananas for weeks.Like Thanos.Don&#39;t say that name.Um, yeah. We don&#39;t actuallysay that name in here.Please take your hand off me.Now, I know that...guy might scare you.Why would I be? Why would, whywould I be scared of that guy?I&#39;m the one who killedthat guy, remember?Anyone else herekilled that guy?Nope. Didn&#39;t think so.Korg, why don&#39;t you, tell everybodywho chopped Thanos&#39; big head off.Umm... Stormbreaker?Now, who&#39;s swingingStormbreaker?I get it. You&#39;re in a rough spot, okay?I&#39;ve been there myself.You wanna know whohelped me out of it?I don&#39;t know. Is it... Natasha?It was you.You helped me.Why don&#39;t you ask the,Asgardians down there,how much my help was worth.The ones that are left, anyway.I think we can bring them back.Stop. Just, stop...I know you think I&#39;m down here wallowing inmy own self-pity, waiting to be rescued andand saved. But I&#39;m fine, okay?We&#39;re fine, aren&#39;t we?Nah, all good here, mate!So, whatever it is thatyou&#39;re offering, we&#39;renot into it, don&#39;t care,couldn&#39;t care less.Goodbye.We need you, pal.There&#39;s beer on the ship.What kind?It&#39;s him! He&#39;s after Akihiko!We never did anything to you!You&#39;re done hurting people.You&#39;re crazy!Wait! Help me!What I want...You can&#39;t give me.You shouldn&#39;t be here.Neither should you.I&#39;ve got a job to do.Is that what you&#39;recalling this?Killing all these people isn&#39;tgonna bring your family back.We found something.A chance, maybe...Don&#39;t.Don&#39;t what?Don&#39;t give me hope.I&#39;m sorry I couldn&#39;tgive it to you sooner.Drifting left. On theside there, Lebowski.- Ratchet, how&#39;s it going?- It&#39;s Rocket.Take it easy. You&#39;re onlya genius on Earth, pal.Yup.Time travel suit? Not bad.Hey, hey, hey. Easy, easy!- I&#39;m being very careful.- No, you&#39;re being very Hulky.- I&#39;m being careful.- These are Pym particles, all right?And ever since Hank Pym got snappedout of existence, this is it.This is what we have. We&#39;renot making any more.- Scott, calm down.- Sorry.We&#39;ve got enough forone round trip, each.That&#39;s it. No do-overs.Plus, two test runs.One test run.All right. I&#39;m notready for this.I&#39;m game.I&#39;ll do it.Clint, now you&#39;re gonna feela little discombobulatedfrom the chronoshift.Don&#39;t worry about it.Wait a second, let meask you something.If we can do this, you know, goback in time, why don&#39;t we justfind baby Thanos, you know?And...- First of all, that&#39;s horrible.- It&#39;s Thanos.And secondly, time doesn&#39;t work that way.Changing the past doesn&#39;t change the future.Look, we go back, we get thestones before Thanos gets them...Thanos doesn&#39;t have the stones.Problem solved.- Bingo.- That&#39;s not how it works.- Well, that&#39;s what I heard.- What? By who? Who told you that?Star Trek, Terminator,TimeCop, Time After Time,- Quantum Leap.- A Wrinkle in Time,- Somewhere in Time,- Hot Tub Time Machine.Bill and Ted&#39;s Excellent Adventure. Basically,any movie that deals with time travel.Die Hard? No, it&#39;s not...This is known.I don&#39;t know why everyone believesthat, but that isn&#39;t true.Think about it: If you travel to thepast, that past becomes your future.And your former presentbecomes the past.Which can&#39;t now be changedby your new future...Exactly.So Back to the Future&#39;sa bunch of bullshit?All right, Clint. We&#39;re going in 3..2.. 1...Cooper?- Where are my headphones?- Lila?Lila! No!Dad?Dad?Hey, hey. Look at me. You okay?Yeah.It worked.It worked.Okay, so the &quot;how&quot; works.Now we gotta figure out the&quot;when,&quot; and the &quot;where.&quot;Almost everyone in thisroom has had an encounterwith at least one of thesix Infinity Stones.Well, I&#39;d subtitute theword &#39;encounter&#39; for &#39;damnnear been killed by one ofthe six Infinity Stones.&#39;I haven&#39;t. I don&#39;t even know whatthe hell you&#39;re all talking about.Regardless, we only have enough PymParticles for one round trip each,and these stones have been in a lot ofdifferent places throughout history.Our history. So, not a lot ofconvenient spots to just drop in.- Which means we have to pick our targets.- Correct.So. Let&#39;s startwith the Aether.Thor, what do you know?Is he asleep?Where to start? Umm...The Aether, first,is not a stone.Someone&#39;s called it a stone before.Ahem...It&#39;s more of a... an angrysludge, sort of thing. So...Someone&#39;s gonna need to amendthat, and stop saying that.Here&#39;s an interestingstory, though.About the Aether. Mygrandafther, many yearsago, had to hide the stonefrom the Dark Elves.Scary beings. So Jane...Oh, there she is. That&#39;s Jane...She&#39;s... an old flame of mine.She... she stuck her handinside a rock this one time...and then the Aether stuckitself inside her.And, she became very, very sick.So I had to take her toAsgard, which is where I&#39;m from.And we had to try and fix her.We were dating at the time, you see. Igot to introduce her to my Mother...who&#39;s dead, and umm....Oh, you know. Jane and I aren&#39;teven dating anymore, so...These things happen though, you know.Nothing lasts forever.- The only thing that...- Why don&#39;t you come sit down.I&#39;m not done yet. The only thing thatis permanent in life, is impermanence.Awesome.Eggs? Breakfast?No. I&#39;d like a Bloody Mary.Quill said he stole thePower Stone from Morag.- Is that a person?- Morag&#39;s a planet.Quill was a person.Like a planet? Likein outer space?Oh, look. It&#39;s like a littlepuppy, all happy and everything.Do you wanna go to space? Youwanna go to space, puppy?I&#39;ll take you to space.- Thanos found the Soul Stone on Vormir.- What is Vormir?A dominion of death, at the verycenter of Celestial existence.It&#39;s where... Thanosmurdered my sister.Noted.- That Time Stone guy...- Doctor Strange.Yeah, what kindof doctor was he?- Neurostuff meets rabbit from a hat.- Nice place in the village, though.- Yeah. Sullivan Street.- Hmm... Bleecker.Wait, he lived in New York?- No. He lived in Toronto.- Yeah, not Bleecker. It&#39;s Sullivan.Guys, if you pick the right year,there are three stones in New York.Shut the front door!All right. We have a plan.Six stones, threeteams, one shot.Five years ago, we lost.All of us.We lost friends...We lost family...We lost a part of ourselves.Today, we have a chanceto take it all back.You know your teams, youknow your missions.Get the stones, get them back.One round trip each. No mistakes.No do-overs.Most of us are goingsomewhere we know.But it doesn&#39;t mean weshould know what to expect.Be careful. Look outfor each other.This is the fight of our lives.And we&#39;re gonna win.Whatever it takes.Good luck.- He&#39;s pretty good at that.- Right?All right. You heard the man.Stroke those keys, jelly green.Tractors engaged.You promise to bring thatback in one piece, right?Yeah, yeah, yeah,yeah. Okay.- I&#39;ll do my best.- As promises go, that was pretty lame.See you in a minute.All right, we all have our assignments.Two stones uptown, one stone, down.Stay low. Keep aneye on the clock.Feel free to smash ifthings don&#39;t go your way.I think it&#39;s gratuitous,but whatever.I&#39;d be careful going that way.We just had the floors waxed.Ma&#39;am, I&#39;m lookingfor Doctor Strange.You&#39;re about... fiveyears too early.Stephen Strange is currently performingsurgery about twenty blocks that way.What do you want from him?That, actually.Ah.- I&#39;m afraid not.- Sorry, but I wasn&#39;t asking.- You don&#39;t wanna do this.- You&#39;re right. I don&#39;t.But I need that stone, andI don&#39;t have time to...Let&#39;s start over, shall we?That&#39;s Jane.All right.Here&#39;s the deal, Tubby:You&#39;re gonna charm her and I&#39;mgonna poke her with this thingand extract the Reality Stoneand get gone, lickety-split.I&#39;ll be right back, okay? There&#39;s awine cellar, that&#39;s just down there.My father used to fishwith a barrel of ale.- I&#39;ll see if the cellar has a couple of...- Hey! Aren&#39;t you drunk enough already?Who&#39;s the fancy broad?It&#39;s my Mother.She dies today.Oh. That&#39;s today?I can&#39;t do this.I can&#39;t do this.I shouldn&#39;t be here. I shouldn&#39;t have come.This was a bad idea.- Come here.- No, no, no. I think I&#39;m having...- I&#39;m having a panic attack.- Come here. Right here.You think you&#39;re the only one who lostpeople? What do you think we&#39;re doing here?I lost the onlyfamily I ever had.Quill, Groot, Drax, the chickwith the antenna, all gone.Now, I get you miss your Mom.But she&#39;s gone. Really gone.And there are plenty of peoplewho are only kinda gone.But you can help them.So is it too much to ask that youbrush the crumbs outta your beard,make schmoopy talk to PrettyPants, and when she&#39;s not looking,suck out the Infinity Stone andhelp me get my family back?Okay.- Are you crying?- No...Yes!Get it together!You can do this.You can do this.All right?- Yes, I can.- Good.I can do this.I can&#39;t do this.Alright, Heartbreaker. She&#39;s alone.This is our shot.Thor?Thor!Alright. Bring it down low.Right on that line. That&#39;s it.Down, down.Hey, can we hurry it up?Guys, chop-chop. Come on.We&#39;re on the clock.All that, is really helpful.- Take care, okay?- Yeah.Take that stone and come back.No messing around.- Hey.- You got this.- Let&#39;s get it done.- Yes, sir.See you back.You guys watch each other&#39;s six.Yeah.The coordinates forVormir are laid in.All they have to dois not fall out.We&#39;re a long way from Budapest.Okay, so, uhh...We just wait around for thisQuill guy to show up andthen he leads us to thePower Stone, is that it?Let&#39;s take cover.We&#39;re not the only ones in2014 looking for the stones.Wait a minute, what areyou talking about rightnow?

Things look likethey&#39;re just about wrapped up here.Got it. I&#39;m approachingthe elevator now.If it&#39;s all the same to you...I&#39;ll have that drink now.All right. Good one.

He&#39;s the man, oneof the folks behind Nick Fury.My friends call me Mr. Secretary.I&#39;m gonna have to ask you toturn that prisoner over to me.- Loki will be answering to Odin himself.- Oh, he&#39;s gonna answer to us.Odin can have what&#39;s left. AndI&#39;m gonna need that case.That&#39;s been SHIELD propertyfor over 70 years.Hand over the case, Stark.All right, move it, Stuart Little. Thingsare getting dicey up here. Let&#39;s go.I&#39;m not gonna argue who&#39;s got thehigher authority here, all right?You promise me you won&#39;t die?You&#39;re only giving me amild cardiac dysrythmia.That doesn&#39;t sound mild.I need the case.I know you got a lotta pull.I&#39;m just saying...Okay.

I haveno idea if it&#39;s gonna work.Yes!That worked a treat.That was so crazy!I had no idea ifthat was gonna work.- The case...- The case. It&#39;s, uhh...Where&#39;s the case? Where&#39;s Loki?Loki!- That wasn&#39;t supposed to happen, was it?- Oh, we blew it.Loki!?Tony, what&#39;s going on?Tell me you found that cube.Oh, you gotta be shitting me.I have eyes on Loki. 14th floor.I&#39;m not Loki.And I don&#39;t wanna hurt you.I can do this all day.Yeah, I know. I know.Where did you get this?Bucky... is... alive!What?That is America&#39;s ass.- Please, please!- I&#39;m sorry. I can&#39;t help you, Bruce.If I give up the Time Stone to helpyour reality, I&#39;m dooming my own.With all due respect, I&#39;m not surethe science really supports that.The Infinity Stones create what youexperience as the flow of time.Remove one of the stones,and that flow splits.Now this may benefit your reality.But my new one, not so much.In this new branched reality, without ourchief weapon against the forces of darkness,our world will be overrun.Millions will suffer.So, tell me, doctor, can yourscience prevent all that?No. But we can erase it.Because once we&#39;re done with the stones, wecan return each one into its own timelineat the moment it was taken.So, chronologically...In that reality....it never left.Yes, but you&#39;re leaving outthe most important part.In order to return thestones, you have to survive.We will. I will. I promise.I can&#39;t risk thisreality on a promise.It&#39;s the duty, of the SorcererSupreme to protect the Time Stone.Then why the hell didStrange give it away?- What did you say?- Strange. He gave it away.He gave it to Thanos.- Willingly?- Yes.- Why?- I have no idea. Maybe he made a mistake.Or I did.Strange was meant tobe the best of us.So he must&#39;ve doneit for a reason.I fear you might be right.Thank you.I&#39;m counting on you, Bruce.We all are.Run diagnostics.Show me her memory file.Sire, the file appears entangled.It was a memory, but not hers.There&#39;s another consciousnesssharing her network.Another Nebula.Impossible.This duplicate carries a time stamp...from nine years in the future.Where is this other Nebula?In our solar system.On Morag.- Can you access her?- Yes. The two are linked.Search the duplicate&#39;smemories, for Infinity Stones.And these stones have been in a lot ofdifferent places throughout history.Our history. So, not a lot ofconvenient spots to just drop in.- Which means we have to pick our targets.- Correct.Freeze image.Terrans.Avengers.Unruly wretches. What&#39;sthat reflection?Amplify this, Maw.I don&#39;t understand.- Two Nebulas.- No. The same Nebula.From two different times.Set course for Morag. Scanthe duplicate&#39;s memories.I want to see everything.My ladies, I&#39;ll see you after.Go on.- What are you doing?- Ahh!You&#39;re better off leaving thesneaking to your brother.Yeah, I was simply justgoing for a walk, and uh...What are you wearing?I always wear this. Thisis one of my favorites.What&#39;s wrong with your eye?Oh, my eye. That&#39;s... youremember the Battle of Haroquin?When I got hit in theface with a broadsword?You&#39;re not the Thor Iknow at all, are you?Yes, I am.The future hasn&#39;t beenkind to you, has it?I didn&#39;t say I&#39;mfrom the future.I was raised by witches, boy.I see with more thaneyes, and you know that.I am totally, totallyfrom the future!Yes, you are.- I really need to talk to you.- We can talk.His head was over there...His body over there...What was the point.I was too late.I was just standing there.- Some idiot with an ax.- You&#39;re no idiot.You&#39;re here aren&#39;t you? Seeking counselfrom the wisest person in Asgard.- I guess, yeah.- Idiot? No.- A failure? Absolutely.- That&#39;s a little bit harsh.You do know whatthat makes you?Just like everyone else.I&#39;m not supposed to belike everyone else, am I?Everyone fails at who theyare supposed to be, Thor.The measure of aperson, of a herois how well they succeedat being who they are.I really missed you, Mum.Thor! I got it!Get that rabbit!- Ma, I have to tell you something.- No, son. You don&#39;t.You&#39;re here to repairyour future, not mine.- But this is about your future.- It&#39;s none of my business.Hey.You must be Mom.I got the thing. Comeon, we got to move.- I wish we had more time.- This was a gift.And you&#39;re going to be theman you&#39;re meant to be.- I love you, Mom.- I love you.And eat a salad.- Come on. We gotta go.- Goodbye.- Three... two...- No, wait!Wh- what am I looking at?Oh, sometimes it takes a second.I&#39;m still worthy.Oh, boy.Goodbye, Mom.So he&#39;s an idiot?What&#39;s that?The tool of a thief.Whoa, whoa,whoa, whoa...This is the part where spikes come out,with skeletons on the end and everything...What are you talking about?When you break into a place calledthe temple of the Power Stone,There&#39;s gonna be a bunch of boobytraps--- Okay. All right. Go ahead.I wasn&#39;t always like this.Me either.But we work withwhat we got, right?Sync up.Three.. two.. one...You murdered trillions!You should be grateful.- Where are the stones?- Gone.- Reduced to atoms.- You used them two days ago.I used the stones to destroy the stones.It nearly killed me.But the work is done.It always will be.I am inevitable.- What did you do to them?- Nothing. Yet.They&#39;re not trying to stop somethingI&#39;m going to do in our time.They&#39;re trying to undo somethingI&#39;ve already done in theirs.The stones...I found them all.I won.Tipped the cosmicscales to balance.This is your future.It&#39;s my destiny.My father is many things. Aliar is not one of them.Thank you, Daughter.Perhaps I treatedyou too harshly...And that, is destiny fulfilled.Sire, your Daughter...No......is a traitor.That&#39;s not me. It&#39;s not. I could never...I would never betray you. Never.I know.And you&#39;ll have thechance to prove it.No...He knows!Barton? Barton, come in.Romanoff? Come in, we have a problem.Come on!Come in, we have a prob....Thanos knows.Thanos...Cap...Sorry, buddy.We got a problem.Huh. Yeah, we do.- Well, what are we gonna do now?- You know what, give me a break, Steve.I just got hit in thehead with a Hulk.You said that we had one shot.This, this was our shot.We shot it. It&#39;s shot. Six stones or nothing.Six stones or nothing.You&#39;re repeating yourself, you know that?You&#39;re repeating yourself.You&#39;re repeating yourself.You&#39;re repeating yourself.- No!- Come on.You never wanted a time heist, youwent on board with the time heist...- I dropped the ball.- You ruined the time heist.- Is that what I did?- Yeah!Are there any other optionswith the Tesseract?No, no, no. There&#39;sno other options.There&#39;s no do-overs. We&#39;renot going anywhere else.We have one particle left. Each.That&#39;s it, alright? We use that...Bye, bye. You&#39;re not going home.Yeah, well if we don&#39;t try...then no one else isgoing home, either.I got it.There&#39;s another way. To retake theTesseract and acquire new particles.We&#39;ll stroll down memory lane.Military installation, Garden State.Why were they both there?They were there at a...I&#39;vea vaguely exact idea.How vague?What are you talking about?Where are we going?- I know for a fact they were there...- Who&#39;s they?- What are we doing?- And I know how I know.Guys, what&#39;s up? What is it?Well, it looks likewe&#39;re improvising.- Right.- What are we improvising?Scott, get this backto the compound.Suit up.What&#39;s in New Jersey?- 0-4, 0-4...- Uhh, 0-7.- 0-7.- Excuse me...1-9-7-0.- Are you sure?- Cap.

- Can you see?
- Yeah.
- You sure?
- Mm-hmm.
How about now?
Can you see now?
All right.
Ready? Three fingers.
Nice!
- Nice throw, kiddo!
- Go.
Hey, you guys want mayo
or mustard, or both?
Who wants mayo on a hotdog?
Pardon your brothers. Two mustards, please!
Thanks, momma.
Got it.
Nate, mayo or mustard?
I want ketchup.
Mind your elbow...
Good job, Hawkeye!
Go get your arrow.
Hey, guys. Enough practice.
Soup's on.
All right. We're coming.
We're hungry.
Lila, let's go.
Lila?
Honey?
Babe?
Babe?
Babe?
Boys!
Boys?
Laura!
You don't need to do that,
because you're just
holding the position.
Come on.
That was close.
That's a goal. We're
now one a-piece.
I would like to try again.
We're tied up.
Feel the tension? It's fun.
That was terrible. Now you
have a chance to win.
And you won. Congratulations.
Fair game.
Good sport.
You had fun?
It was fun.
This thing on?
Hey, Miss Potts... Pep.
If you find this recording...
don't post it, on social media.
It's gonna be a real tear-jerker.
I don't know if you're
ever gonna see these.
I don't even know
if you're still...
Oh, God. I hope so...
Today is day 21... uh, 22.
You know, if it wasn't for
the existensial terror of
staring into the
literal void of space,
I'd say, I'm feeling
more better today.
The infection's run its course,
thanks to the blue meanie back there.
You'd love her. Very practical.
Only a tiny bit sadistic.
Some fuel cells were cracked during battle, but
we figured out a way to reverse the ion charge
to buy ourselves, about,
48 hours of playtime.
But it's now dead in the water.
We're 1,000 lightyears
from the nearest 7-11.
Oxygen will run out
tomorrow morning.
That'll be it.
And Pep, I...
I know I said no
more surprises, but
I gotta say I was really hoping
to pull off one last one.
But it looks like...
Well, you know what
it looks like.
Don't feel bad about this.
I mean actually if you
grovel for a couple weeks,
and then, move on
with enormous guilt.
I should probably lie down.
I'm gonna caress my
Please know that...
When I drift off, it will be
goodbye the whole time...
I'll think about you.
Because it's always you.
- Couldn't stop him.
- Neither could I.
I lost the kid.
Tony, we lost.
Is, umm...
Oh, my God!
It's okay.
It's been 23 days since
Thanos came to Earth.
World governments are in pieces.
The parts that are still working
are trying to take a census,
And it looks like he did...
He did exactly what he said he
was gonna do. Thanos wiped out..
...fifty percent of
all living creatures.
Where is he now? Where?
We don't know.
He just opened a portal
and walked through.
What's wrong with him?
He's pissed.
He thinks he failed.
Which of course he did, but there's a
lot of that goin' around, ain't there?
Honestly, at this exact second, I
thought you were a Build-A-Bear.
Maybe I am.
We've been hunting Thanos
for three weeks now.
Deep space scans, and
satellites, and we got nothing.
- Tony you fought him.
- Who told you that?
Didn't fight him.
No. He wiped my face
with a planet while a
Bleecker Street magician
gave away the stone.
- That's what happened. There was no fight...
- Okay.
Did he give you any clues?
Any coordinates, anything?
Pfft!
I saw this coming a few years back. I had
a vision. I didn't wanna believe it.
Thought I was dreaming.
- Tony I'm gonna need you to focus.
- And I needed you.
As in past tense. That trumps what
you need. It's too late, buddy.
Sorry.
You know what I need?
I need to shave.
- And I believe I rememeber telling
- Tony, Tony, Tony...
why that otherwise,
that what we needed was a suit of armor
around the world. Remember that?
Whether it impacted our precious
freedoms, or not. That's what we needed.
- Well that didn't work out, did it?
- I said we'd lose.
You said, "We'll do
that together, too."
Well guess what, Cap? We lost.
You weren't there.
But that's what we do, right?
Our best work after the fact?
We're the Avengers? We're the Avengers?
Not the Prevengers?
Okay. You made your point.
Just sit down, okay?
- No, no. Here's my... She's great, by the way.
- Tony, sit, sit down!
We need you. You're new blood.
Bunch of tired old mills...
I got nothing for you, Cap.
I got no coordinates,
no clues, no strategies,
no options...
Zero. Zip. Nada. No
trust, you liar...
Here, take this. You find
him and you put that on.
You hide.
- Tony!
- I'm fine. I...
Bruce gave him a sedative. He's gonna
probably be out for the rest of the day.
You guys take care of him. And I'll bring
an Bezurian elixir when I come back.
- Where are you going?
- To kill Thanos.
Hey.
You know we usually work
as a team here, and
between you and I we're
also a little fragile.
We realize up there is more your
territory but this is our fight, too.
- You even know where he is?
- I know people who might.
Don't bother.
I can tell you where Thanos is.
Thanos spent a long time
trying to perfect me.
Then when he worked, he
talked about his great plan.
Even disassembled, I
wanted to please him.
I'd ask, where would we go
once his plan was complete?
His answer was always the same.
To The Garden.
That's cute. Thanos has
a retirement plan.
So where is he, then?
When Thanos snapped his fingers,
Earth became ground zero for a power surge
of ridiculously cosmic proportions.
No one's ever seen anything like it...
until two days ago.
On this planet.
Thanos is there.
He used the stones again.
Hey, hey, hey...
We'd be going in
short-handed, you know?
- Look, he still got the stones, so...
- So let's get him.
- We use them to bring everyone back.
- Just like that?
Yeah. Just like that.
Even if there's a small chance
that we can undo this...
I mean, we owe it to everyone
who's not in this room to try.
If we do this, how do we know it's gonna
end any differently than it did before?
Because before, you
didn't have me.
Hey, new girl, everybody in this
room is about that superhero life.
And if you don't mind my asking, where
the hell have you been all this time?
There are a lot of other
planets in the universe.
And unfortunately, they
didn't have you guys.
I like this one.
Let's go get this
son of a bitch.
Okay. Who here hasn't
been to space?
You better not throw
up on my ship.
Approaching jump in 3.. 2.. 1.
I'll head down for recon.
- This is gonna work Steve.
- I know it will.
Because I don't know what
I'm gonna do if it doesn't.
No satellites, no ships, no armies,
no ground defenses of any kind.
It's just him.
Then that's enough.
Oh, no.
Where are they?
Answer the question.
The universe
required correction.
After that, the stones served
no purpose, beyond temptation.
You murdered trillions!
You should be grateful.
- Where are the stones?
- Gone.
- Reduced to atoms.
- You used them two days ago.
I used the stones to
destroy the stones.
It nearly killed me.
But the work is done.
It always will be.
I am inevitable.
We have to tear this place apart.
He has to be lying.
My father is many things.
A liar is not one of them.
Thank you, Daughter.
Perhaps I treated
you too harshly...
What... what did you do?
I went for the head.
So I, uh...
Went on a date the other day.
It's the first time in five years,
you know? Sit there, dinner...
I didn't know what
to talk about.
What did you talk about?
Same old crap, you know? How
things have changed, and...
My job, his job....
How much we miss the Mets.
Then things get quiet..
He cried as they were
serving the salads.
What about you?
I cried just before dessert.
But I'm seeing him
again tomorrow, so...
That's great.
You did the hardest part.
You took the jump, you
didn't know where you
were gonna come down.
And that's it. That's those little
brave baby steps you gotta take.
To try and become whole again.
To try and find purpose.
I went in the ice in '45 right
after I met the love of my life.
Woke up 70 years later.
You got to move on.
Got to move on.
The world is in our hands.
It's left to us guys.
And we got to do
something with it.
Otherwise...
Thanos should've
killed all of us.
What the hell?
Hope?
Kid! Hey, kid!
What the hell happened here?
My God...
No. Please. Please, please.
No, no, no...
Excuse me. Sorry.
No, Cassie, no.
No.
No, no.
Please, please,
please, please....
No, Cassie...
What?
Cassie?
Dad?
You're so big!
Yeah, we boarded that highly
suspect warship Danvers pinged.
It was an infectious
garbage scowl.
So, thanks for the hot tip.
- Well, you were closer.
- Yeah. And now we smell like garbage.
You get a reading
on those tremors?
It was a mild subduction
under the African plate.
Do we have a visual? How
are we handling it?
Nat, it's an earthquake
under the ocean.
We handle it by not handling it.
Carol, are we seeing
you here next month?
- Not likely.
- What, you gonna get another haircut?
Listen, fur-face. I'm
covering a lot of territory.
The things that are
happening on Earth are
happening everywhere, on
thousands of planets.
That's a good point.
That's a good point.
So you might not see
me for a long time.
All right. Uh, well...
This channel is always active.
So, anything goes sideways...
Anyone's making trouble
where they shouldn't...
- Comes through me.
- Okay.
All right.
Good luck.
- Where are you?
- Mexico.
The federales found a
room full of bodies.
Looks like a bunch of cartel guys. Never
even had the chance to get their guns off.
- It's probably a rival gang...
- Except it isn't.
It's definitely Barton.
What he's done here, what he's
been doing for the last few years,
I mean, the scene
that he left...
I gotta tell you, there's a part of
me that doesn't even wanna find him.
Will you find out where
he's going next?
Nat...
Please.
Okay.
You know I'd offer to clip your dinner
but you seem pretty miserable already.
You here to do your laundry?
And to see a friend.
Clearly, your friend is fine.
You know I saw a pod of whales
when I was coming up the bridge.
- In the Hudson?
- There's fewer ships, cleaner water.
You know, if you're about to tell
me to look on the bright side...
Um...
I'm about to hit you in the head
with a peanut butter sandwich.
Sorry. Force of habit.
You know I keep telling everybody
they should move on and... grow.
Some do.
But not us.
- If I move on, who does this?
- Maybe it doesn't need to be done.
I used to have nothing.
And then I got this.
This job.
This family.
And I was... I was
better because of it.
And even though...
they're gone...
Now, I'm still
trying to be better.
I think we both
need to get a life.
You first.
Oh... Hi. Hi!
Is anyone home?
This is Scott Lang.
We met a few years ago, at the airport?
In Germany?
I got really big and
I had my mask on.
- You wouldn't recognize me.
- Is this an old message?
Ant-Man? Ant-Man, I
know you know that.
It's the front gate.
I need to talk to you guys.
Scott.
- Are you okay?
- Yeah.
Have either of you guys ever
studied quantum physics?
Only in mid-conversation.
Alright. So...
Five years ago, right before...
Thanos,
I was in a place called
the quantum realm.
The quantum realm is like its
own microscopic universe.
To get in there, you have to be
incredibly small. Hope, she's my...
She... she was my...
She was supposed to pull me out.
And then Thanos happened, and
- I got stuck in there.
- Sorry. That must've been a long 5 years.
Yeah, but that's just it.
It wasn't.
For me it was five hours.
See, the rules of the quantum realm
aren't like they are up here.
Everything is unpredictable. Is that
anybody's sandwich? I'm starving.
Scott.
What are you talking about?
So...
What I'm saying is...
Time works differently
in the quantum realm.
The only problem is right now, we
don't have a way to navigate it.
But what if we did?
I can't stop thinking about it. What
if we could somehow control the chaos,
and we could navigate it? What if
there was a way that we can enter
the quantum realm at a certain
point in time but then
exit the quantum realm at
another point in time? Like...
Like before Thanos.
Wait, are you talking
about a time machine?
No. No, of course not.
No, not a time machine.
It's more like a...
Yeah, a time machine. I know it's crazy.
It's crazy.
But I can't stop thinking about it.
There's gotta be...
Some wa... It's crazy.
I get e-mails from a raccoon. So,
nothing sounds crazy anymore.
So who do we talk to about this?
Chow-time!
Morgoona.
Morgan H. Stark.
Want some lunch?
- Define lunch or be disintegrated.
- Okay.
You should not be
wearing that, okay?
That is part of a special anniversary
gift I'm making for Mom.
There you go. Are you
thinking about lunch?
Want a handful of crickets?
- No.
- That's what you want.
- How did you find this?
- Garage.
Really?
- Were you looking for it?
- No.
I found it, though.
You like going to the garage, huh?
So does Daddy.
It's fine actually. Mom never
wears anything I wear.
Now, we know what
it sounds like...
Tony after everything you've seen,
is anything really impossible...
Quantum fluctuation messes
with the Planck scale,
which then triggers the Deutsch
proposition. Can we agree on that?
Thank you.
In Layman's terms, it means
you're not coming home.
- I did.
- No.
You accidentally survived. It's a---
It's a billion-to-one
cosmic fluke.
And now you wanna pull a...
What do you call it?
- A time heist?
- Yeah. Time heist.
Of course. Why didn't we
think of this before?
Oh! Because it's laughable?
Because it's a pipedream?
The stones are in the past. We
can go back and we can get them.
We can snap our own fingers.
We can bring everybody back.
Or screw it up worse than
he already has, right?
I don't believe we would.
Gotta say this. Sometimes, I
miss that giddy optimism.
However, high hopes won't
help if there's no logical,
tangible, way for me to safely
execute said time heist.
I believe the most likely outcome
will be our collective demise.
Not if we strictly follow
the rules of time travel.
That means no talking to our past selves,
no betting on sporting events...
I'm gonna stop you
right there, Scott.
Are you seriously telling
me that your plan to
save the universe is based
on Back to the Future?
- No.
- Good. You had me worried there.
'Cause that'd be horseshit. That's
not how quantum physics works.
Tony...
We have to take a stand.
We did stand. And
yet, here we are.
I know you got a lot on the line.
You got a wife, a daughter.
But I lost someone very important to me.
A lot of people did.
And now, now, we have a chance to bring
her back. To bring everyone back.
And you're telling me
that you won't even...
That's right, Scott.
I won't. Leave it.
Got a kid.
Mommy told me to
come and save you.
Good job. I'm saved.
I wish you'd come here to
ask me something else.
Anything else. Honestly, I
missed you guys, it was...
- Oh, and table's set for six.
- Tony, I get it.
And I'm happy for you.
I really am.
But this is a second chance.
I got my second chance
right here, Cap.
I can't roll the dice again.
If you don't talk shop,
you can stay for lunch.
- He's scared.
- He's not wrong.
Yeah, but I mean,
what are we gonna do?
We need him. What,
are we gonna stop?
No. I wanna do it right.
We're gonna need a
really big brain.
Bigger than his?
Come on. I feel like I'm the only
one eating. Try some of that.
Have some eggs.
I'm so confused.
- These are confusing times.
- Right. No, no...
- That's not what I meant. I...
- No, I get it.
I'm kidding! I know. It's crazy.
- I'm wearing shirts now.
- Yeah! How? Why?
Five years ago we
got our asses beat.
Except it was worse for me.
Because I lost twice.
First, Hulk lost. Then Banner lost.
Then, we all lost.
- No one blamed you, Bruce.
- I did.
For years I've been
treating the Hulk like he's
some kind of disease,
something to get rid of.
But then I started looking
at him as the cure.
Eighteen months in a gamma lab. I put
the brains and the brawn together.
And now look at me.
Best of both worlds.
- Excuse me, Mr. Hulk?
- Yes?
- Can we get a photo?
- 100%, little person.
Come on, step on up. You mind?
Oh.
- Say "green."
- Green.
Greeeen.
- Did you get that?
- That's good.
Don't you wanna grab one with me?
I'm Ant-Man.
They're Hulk fans.
They don't know Ant-Man.
- Nobody does.
- Wait, no, no, he wants to...
You want to take a
picture with him, right?
He's even saying no he doesn't.
I get it.
I don't want it either. I don't
want a picture with them.
- He's gonna feel bad.
- Sorry.
- They said they'd do it.
- I don't want it anymore.
- You'd feel bad...
- Take the goddamn phone.
Thank you, Mr. Hulk.
No, it's great, kids.
Thank you very much.
- Hulk out!
- Bruce.
- Dab.
- Bruce.
Listen to your Mom.
She knows better.
- About we were saying...
- Right.
The whole time travel do-over?
Guys, it's outside of
my area of expertise.
Well, you pulled this off.
I remember a time when that
seemed pretty impossible, too.
Look at a mod inspiration,
let me see what checks out.
So, recommend one last sim before
we pack it in for the night.
This time, in the shape of a
mobius strip, inverted. Please?
Processing...
Give me that eigenvalue. That, particle
factoring, and spectral decomp.
- Gotta take a second.
- Just a moment.
And don't worry if it doesn't pan out.
I'm just kinda...
Model rendered.
Shit!
Shit!
What are you doing
up, Little Miss?
- Shit.
- No. We don't say that.
Only Mommy says that word. She
coined it, it belongs to her.
Why you up?
'Cause I got some important shit
going on here. What do you think?
No, I got something on my mind.
I got something on my mind.
- Was it Juice Pops?
- Sure was.
That's extortion.
Great minds think alike. Juice
Pops, exactly was on...
my mind.
You done? Yeah? Now you are.
- That face, goes there.
- Tell me a story.
A story.
Once upon a time, a little
girl went to bed. The end.
That ain't the whole story.
Come on, that's your
favorite story.
I love you tons.
I love you 3,000.
Wow.
3,000. That's crazy.
Go to bed. Or I'll
sell all your toys.
Night-night.
Not that it's a competition,
but she loves me 3,000.
You were somewhere in
the low 6 to 900 range.
- What you reading?
- Just a book on composting.
What's new with composting?
- Just ....
- I figured it out...
by the way.
You know, just so we're talking
about the same thing...
Time travel.
What?
Wow.
That's...
Amazing, and.... terrifying.
That's right.
- I got really lucky.
- Yeah. I know.
- A lot of people didn't.
- No, I can't help everybody.
- It sorta seems like you can.
- Not if I stop.
I can put a pin in it
right now, and stop.
Tony...
trying to get you to stop has been one
of the few failures of my entire life.
I sometimes feel I should put it in a locked
box and drop it at the bottom of a lake...
...go to bed.
But would you be able to rest?
Okay, here we go. Time
travel test number one.
Scott, fire up the, uhh...
The van thing.
Breakers are set. Emergency
generators are on standby.
Good. 'Cause if we blow the grid, I don't
wanna lose Tiny here in the 1950's.
- Excuse me?
- He's kidding.
You can't say things like that.
Just... it was, just a bad joke.
- You were kidding, right?
- I have no idea.
We're talking about time travel here.
Either it's all a joke, or none of it is.
We're good! Get your helmet on.
Scott, I'm gonna send you
back a week, but you'll walk
around for an hour, then bring
you back in 10 seconds.
- Makes sense?
- Perfectly not confusing.
Good luck, Scott. You got this.
You're right. I do,
Captain America.
On the count of three.
3.. 2.. 1..
Guys? This doesn't feel right.
- What's going on? Hold on.
- Who is that?
- Is that Scott?
- Yes, it's Scott!
Ooh! My back!
- Can you bring him back?
- I'm working on it!
A baby.
- It's Scott.
- As a baby!
Bring Scott back.
When I say kill the
power, kill the power.
And... kill it!
Somebody peed my pants.
I don't know if it was
"baby" me or "old" me.
Or, just "me" me.
Time travel!
What?
I see this as an absolute win.
Why the long face?
Let me guess. He
turned into a baby.
Among other things, yeah.
What are you doing here?
That's the EPR paradox.
Instead of pushing Lang through time, you
might've wound up pushing time through Lang.
It's tricky. Dangerous. Somebody
coulda cautioned you against it.
- You did.
- Oh, did I?
Thank God, I'm here.
Regardless, I fixed it.
A fully functioning
time-space GPS.
I just want peace.
Turns out, resentment is
corrosive, and I hate it.
Me, too.
We got a shot at getting
these stones, but I
gotta tell you my
priority is to bring back
what we lost? I hope, yes.
Keep what I found? I
have to, at all costs.
And, maybe not die
trying will be nice.
Sounds like a deal.
- Tony, I don't know...
- Why? He made it for you.
Plus, honestly I have to get it out the
garage before Morgan takes it sledding.
Thank you, Tony.
Will you keep that a little quietly?
Didn't bring one for the whole team.
- We are getting, the whole team, yeah?
- We're working on that right now.
- Hey, humie! Where's big green?
- Kitchen. I think.
- That's awesome.
- Rodent, careful on re-entry.
There's an idiot on
the landing zone.
Oh, God!
What's up, regular-sized man?
Kind of a step down from a golden palace
for an Avenger highness or whatnot.
Hey, have a little compassion, pal.
First, they've lost Asgard,
then half the people. They're probably
just happy they have a home.
You shouldn't have come!
Valkyrie!
Great to see you, Angry Girl.
I think I liked you better
either of the other ways.
- This is Rocket.
- How you doin'?
- He won't see you.
- That bad, huh?
We only see him once a month,
when he comes in for...
...supplies.
- It's that bad.
- Yeah.
What the...
Woo! Something died in here.
Hello? Thor?
Are you here about the cable?
The Cinemax ran out two weeks ago,
and, sports were all kind of fuzzy...
Boys! Oh, my God!
My God! How have you been?
Come here, you little rascal!
No, I'm good! I'm good.
That's not necessary!
Hulk, you know my friends,
Miek, Korg, right?
- Hey, boys!
- Hey, guys. Long time no see.
Beer's on the bucket. Feel
free to log on to the wi-fi.
No password, obviously.
Thor, he's back. That kid on the TV
who's called me a dickhead again.
- Noobmaster.
- Yeah, Noobmaster69.
Noobmaster. Hey, it's Thor again.
You know, the God of Thunder?
Listen, buddy. If you don't log off
this game immediately I'm gonna fly
home to your house, come down to
that basement you're hiding in,
rip off your arms then
shove them up your butt!
Oh, that's right. Yes, go cry to
your father, you little weasel!
Thank you, Thor.
Let me know if he
bothers you again, okay?
Thank you very much. I will.
So you guys want a drink?
What are you drinking?
We have beer, tequila,
all sorts of things.
Buddy, you all right?
Yes, I'm fine! Why,
don't I look all right?
You look like melted ice cream.
So, what's up?
We need your help. There might be
a chance we could fix everything.
What, like the cable? 'Cause that's
been driving me bananas for weeks.
Like Thanos.
Don't say that name.
Um, yeah. We don't actually
say that name in here.
Please take your hand off me.
Now, I know that...
guy might scare you.
Why would I be? Why would, why
would I be scared of that guy?
I'm the one who killed
that guy, remember?
Anyone else here
killed that guy?
Nope. Didn't think so.
Korg, why don't you, tell everybody
who chopped Thanos' big head off.
Umm... Stormbreaker?
Now, who's swinging
Stormbreaker?
I get it. You're in a rough spot, okay?
I've been there myself.
You wanna know who
helped me out of it?
I don't know. Is it... Natasha?
It was you.
You helped me.
Why don't you ask the,
Asgardians down there,
how much my help was worth.
The ones that are left, anyway.
I think we can bring them back.
Stop. Just, stop...
I know you think I'm down here wallowing in
my own self-pity, waiting to be rescued and
and saved. But I'm fine, okay?
We're fine, aren't we?
Nah, all good here, mate!
So, whatever it is that
you're offering, we're
not into it, don't care,
couldn't care less.
Goodbye.
We need you, pal.
There's beer on the ship.
What kind?
It's him! He's after Akihiko!
We never did anything to you!
You're done hurting people.
You're crazy!
Wait! Help me!
What I want...
You can't give me.
You shouldn't be here.
Neither should you.
I've got a job to do.
Is that what you're
calling this?
Killing all these people isn't
gonna bring your family back.
We found something.
A chance, maybe...
Don't.
Don't what?
Don't give me hope.
I'm sorry I couldn't
give it to you sooner.
Drifting left. On the
side there, Lebowski.
- Ratchet, how's it going?
- It's Rocket.
Take it easy. You're only
a genius on Earth, pal.
Yup.
Time travel suit? Not bad.
Hey, hey, hey. Easy, easy!
- I'm being very careful.
- No, you're being very Hulky.
- I'm being careful.
- These are Pym particles, all right?
And ever since Hank Pym got snapped
out of existence, this is it.
This is what we have. We're
not making any more.
- Scott, calm down.
- Sorry.
We've got enough for
one round trip, each.
That's it. No do-overs.
Plus, two test runs.
One test run.
All right. I'm not
ready for this.
I'm game.
I'll do it.
Clint, now you're gonna feel
a little discombobulated
from the chronoshift.
Don't worry about it.
Wait a second, let me
ask you something.
If we can do this, you know, go
back in time, why don't we just
find baby Thanos, you know?
And...
- First of all, that's horrible.
- It's Thanos.
And secondly, time doesn't work that way.
Changing the past doesn't change the future.
Look, we go back, we get the
stones before Thanos gets them...
Thanos doesn't have the stones.
Problem solved.
- Bingo.
- That's not how it works.
- Well, that's what I heard.
- What? By who? Who told you that?
Star Trek, Terminator,
TimeCop, Time After Time,
- Quantum Leap.
- A Wrinkle in Time,
- Somewhere in Time,
- Hot Tub Time Machine.
Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. Basically,
any movie that deals with time travel.
Die Hard? No, it's not...
This is known.
I don't know why everyone believes
that, but that isn't true.
Think about it: If you travel to the
past, that past becomes your future.
And your former present
becomes the past.
Which can't now be changed
by your new future...
Exactly.
So Back to the Future's
a bunch of bullshit?
All right, Clint. We're going in 3..
2.. 1...
Cooper?
- Where are my headphones?
- Lila?
Lila! No!
Dad?
Dad?
Hey, hey. Look at me. You okay?
Yeah.
It worked.
It worked.
Okay, so the "how" works.
Now we gotta figure out the
"when," and the "where."
Almost everyone in this
room has had an encounter
with at least one of the
six Infinity Stones.
Well, I'd subtitute the
word 'encounter' for 'damn
near been killed by one of
the six Infinity Stones.'
I haven't. I don't even know what
the hell you're all talking about.
Regardless, we only have enough Pym
Particles for one round trip each,
and these stones have been in a lot of
different places throughout history.
Our history. So, not a lot of
convenient spots to just drop in.
- Which means we have to pick our targets.
- Correct.
So. Let's start
with the Aether.
Thor, what do you know?
Is he asleep?
Where to start? Umm...
The Aether, first,
is not a stone.
Someone's called it a stone before.
Ahem...
It's more of a... an angry
sludge, sort of thing. So...
Someone's gonna need to amend
that, and stop saying that.
Here's an interesting
story, though.
About the Aether. My
grandafther, many years
ago, had to hide the stone
from the Dark Elves.
Scary beings. So Jane...
Oh, there she is. That's Jane...
She's... an old flame of mine.
She... she stuck her hand
inside a rock this one time...
and then the Aether stuck
itself inside her.
And, she became very, very sick.
So I had to take her to
Asgard, which is where I'm from.
And we had to try and fix her.
We were dating at the time, you see. I
got to introduce her to my Mother...
who's dead, and umm....
Oh, you know. Jane and I aren't
even dating anymore, so...
These things happen though, you know.
Nothing lasts forever.
- The only thing that...
- Why don't you come sit down.
I'm not done yet. The only thing that
is permanent in life, is impermanence.
Awesome.
Eggs? Breakfast?
No. I'd like a Bloody Mary.
Quill said he stole the
Power Stone from Morag.
- Is that a person?
- Morag's a planet.
Quill was a person.
Like a planet? Like
in outer space?
Oh, look. It's like a little
puppy, all happy and everything.
Do you wanna go to space? You
wanna go to space, puppy?
I'll take you to space.
- Thanos found the Soul Stone on Vormir.
- What is Vormir?
A dominion of death, at the very
center of Celestial existence.
It's where... Thanos
murdered my sister.
Noted.
- That Time Stone guy...
- Doctor Strange.
Yeah, what kind
of doctor was he?
- Neurostuff meets rabbit from a hat.
- Nice place in the village, though.
- Yeah. Sullivan Street.
- Hmm... Bleecker.
Wait, he lived in New York?
- No. He lived in Toronto.
- Yeah, not Bleecker. It's Sullivan.
Guys, if you pick the right year,
there are three stones in New York.
Shut the front door!
All right. We have a plan.
Six stones, three
teams, one shot.
Five years ago, we lost.
All of us.
We lost friends...
We lost family...
We lost a part of ourselves.
Today, we have a chance
to take it all back.
You know your teams, you
know your missions.
Get the stones, get them back.
One round trip each. No mistakes.
No do-overs.
Most of us are going
somewhere we know.
But it doesn't mean we
should know what to expect.
Be careful. Look out
for each other.
This is the fight of our lives.
And we're gonna win.
Whatever it takes.
Good luck.
- He's pretty good at that.
- Right?
All right. You heard the man.
Stroke those keys, jelly green.
Tractors engaged.
You promise to bring that
back in one piece, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah. Okay.
- I'll do my best.
- As promises go, that was pretty lame.
See you in a minute.
All right, we all have our assignments.
Two stones uptown, one stone, down.
Stay low. Keep an
eye on the clock.
Feel free to smash if
things don't go your way.
I think it's gratuitous,
but whatever.
I'd be careful going that way.
We just had the floors waxed.
Ma'am, I'm looking
for Doctor Strange.
You're about... five
years too early.
Stephen Strange is currently performing
surgery about twenty blocks that way.
What do you want from him?
That, actually.
Ah.
- I'm afraid not.
- Sorry, but I wasn't asking.
- You don't wanna do this.
- You're right. I don't.
But I need that stone, and
I don't have time to...
Let's start over, shall we?
That's Jane.
All right.
Here's the deal, Tubby:
You're gonna charm her and I'm
gonna poke her with this thing
and extract the Reality Stone
and get gone, lickety-split.
I'll be right back, okay? There's a
wine cellar, that's just down there.
My father used to fish
with a barrel of ale.
- I'll see if the cellar has a couple of...
- Hey! Aren't you drunk enough already?
Who's the fancy broad?
It's my Mother.
She dies today.
Oh. That's today?
I can't do this.
I can't do this.
I shouldn't be here. I shouldn't have come.
This was a bad idea.
- Come here.
- No, no, no. I think I'm having...
- I'm having a panic attack.
- Come here. Right here.
You think you're the only one who lost
people? What do you think we're doing here?
I lost the only
family I ever had.
Quill, Groot, Drax, the chick
with the antenna, all gone.
Now, I get you miss your Mom.
But she's gone. Really gone.
And there are plenty of people
who are only kinda gone.
But you can help them.
So is it too much to ask that you
brush the crumbs outta your beard,
make schmoopy talk to Pretty
Pants, and when she's not looking,
suck out the Infinity Stone and
help me get my family back?
Okay.
- Are you crying?
- No...
Yes!
Get it together!
You can do this.
You can do this.
All right?
- Yes, I can.
- Good.
I can do this.
I can't do this.
Alright, Heartbreaker. She's alone.
This is our shot.
Thor?
Thor!
Alright. Bring it down low.
Right on that line. That's it.
Down, down.
Hey, can we hurry it up?
Guys, chop-chop. Come on.
We're on the clock.
All that, is really helpful.
- Take care, okay?
- Yeah.
Take that stone and come back.
No messing around.
- Hey.
- You got this.
- Let's get it done.
- Yes, sir.
See you back.
You guys watch each other's six.
Yeah.
The coordinates for
Vormir are laid in.
All they have to do
is not fall out.
We're a long way from Budapest.
Okay, so, uhh...
We just wait around for this
Quill guy to show up and
then he leads us to the
Power Stone, is that it?
Let's take cover.
We're not the only ones in
2014 looking for the stones.
Wait a minute, what are
you talking about right
now? Who else is looking
for these stones?
My father, my sister...
- and me.
- And you?
Where are you right now?
- You're welcome.
- I didn't ask for your help.
And yet, you always need it.
Get up.
- Father wants us back on the ship.
- Why?
He's found an Infinity Stone.
- Where?
- On a planet called Morag.
Father's plan is
finally in motion.
- One stone isn't six, Nebula.
- It's a start.
If he gets all of them...
Ronan's located the Power Stone.
I'm dispatching you to his ship.
- He won't like that.
- His alternative is death, then.
Ronan's obsession
clouds his judgement.
We will not fail you, Father.
No, you won't.
I swear...
I will make you proud.
We just, wait around for
this Quill guy to show up,
and then he leads us to the
Power Stone, is that it?
Let's take cover.
We're not the only ones in
2014 looking for the stones.
- Who was that?
- I don't know...
My head is splitting...
I don't know...
Her synaptic drive was
probably damaged in battle.
Bring her to my ship.
Got to hustle, Cap. Things look like
they're just about wrapped up here.
Got it. I'm approaching
the elevator now.
If it's all the same to you...
I'll have that drink now.
All right. Good one. No standing around,
I'm closing up this door for later.
By the way, feel
free to clean up.
Ugh, Mr. Rogers. I almost
forgot that that suit
- did nothing for your ass.
- No one asked you to look.
I think you look great, Cap.
As far as I'm concerned,
that's America's ass.
- Uhh, magic wand?
- STRIKE team's coming to secure it.
We can take that
off your hands.
By all means.
- Careful with that thing!
- Unless you want your mind erased.
- Not in a fun way.
- We promise to be careful.
- Who are these guys?
- They are SHIELD...
Well, actually Hydra. But,
we didn't know that yet.
Seriously, you didn't? I mean...
they look like bad guys.
You're small, but
you're talking loud.
On my way down to
coordinate search and rescue.
On my way down to
coordinate search and rescue!
I mean, honestly! How do
you think you'll be...
Shut up.
All right, you're up, little buddy.
There's our stone.
Alright. Flick me.
- Whoa! Whoa, whoa.
- Hey! Buddy.
What do you think? Maximum
occupancy has been reached.
- Take the stairs!
- Yeah. Stop. Stop!
Take the stairs.
Take the stairs!
All right, Cap. I got our scepter in the
elevator just passing the 80th floor.
On it.
- Head to the lobby.
- Alright. I'll see you there.
Evidence secure. We're
en route to Dr. List.
No. No hitches at all, Mr.
Secretary.
Captain. I thought you were
coordinating search and rescue?
Change of plans.
Hey, Cap.
Rumlow.
I just got a call from the Secretary. I'm
gonna be running point on the scepter.
Sir? I don't understand.
We got word there may be
an attempt to steal it.
Sorry, Cap.
I can't give you the scepter.
- I'm gonna have to call the Director.
- That's okay. Trust me.
Hail Hydra.
So many stairs!
Thumbelina, do you copy?
I've got eyes on the prize.
- It is go-time.
- Bombs away.
Is, is that Axe body spray?
Yeah, I had a can just
for emergencies. Relax.
- Can we focus, please?
- I'm going inside you. Now.
May I ask you
where you're going?
To lunch and then Asgard.
I'm sorry, you are?
Alexander Pierce. He's the man, one
of the folks behind Nick Fury.
My friends call me Mr. Secretary.
I'm gonna have to ask you to
turn that prisoner over to me.
- Loki will be answering to Odin himself.
- Oh, he's gonna answer to us.
Odin can have what's left. And
I'm gonna need that case.
That's been SHIELD property
for over 70 years.
Hand over the case, Stark.
All right, move it, Stuart Little. Things
are getting dicey up here. Let's go.
I'm not gonna argue who's got the
higher authority here, all right?
You promise me you won't die?
You're only giving me a
mild cardiac dysrythmia.
That doesn't sound mild.
I need the case.
I know you got a lotta pull.
I'm just saying...
Okay. Then give me the case.
Do it, Lang!
- Get your hands off!
- Window's closing. Pull my pin!
Here goes!
- Stark?
- Stark!
Look, he's convulsing.
Give him air!
- Medic!
- Medic!
You got some help!
Stark, you--- your
chest machine?
Breathe! Breathe!
Good job. Meet me in the alley.
I'm gonna grab a quick slice.
No stairs!
You'll be fine, Stark.
Stay with us!
I'll try something, okay? I have
no idea if it's gonna work.
Yes!
That worked a treat.
That was so crazy!
I had no idea if
that was gonna work.
- The case...
- The case. It's, uhh...
Where's the case? Where's Loki?
Loki!
- That wasn't supposed to happen, was it?
- Oh, we blew it.
Loki!?
Tony, what's going on?
Tell me you found that cube.
Oh, you gotta be shitting me.
I have eyes on Loki. 14th floor.
I'm not Loki.
And I don't wanna hurt you.
I can do this all day.
Yeah, I know. I know.
Where did you get this?
Bucky... is... alive!
What?
That is America's ass.
- Please, please!
- I'm sorry. I can't help you, Bruce.
If I give up the Time Stone to help
your reality, I'm dooming my own.
With all due respect, I'm not sure
the science really supports that.
The Infinity Stones create what you
experience as the flow of time.
Remove one of the stones,
and that flow splits.
Now this may benefit your reality.
But my new one, not so much.
In this new branched reality, without our
chief weapon against the forces of darkness,
our world will be overrun.
Millions will suffer.
So, tell me, doctor, can your
science prevent all that?
No. But we can erase it.
Because once we're done with the stones, we
can return each one into its own timeline
at the moment it was taken.
So, chronologically...
In that reality....
it never left.
Yes, but you're leaving out
the most important part.
In order to return the
stones, you have to survive.
We will. I will. I promise.
I can't risk this
reality on a promise.
It's the duty, of the Sorcerer
Supreme to protect the Time Stone.
Then why the hell did
Strange give it away?
- What did you say?
- Strange. He gave it away.
He gave it to Thanos.
- Willingly?
- Yes.
- Why?
- I have no idea. Maybe he made a mistake.
Or I did.
Strange was meant to
be the best of us.
So he must've done
it for a reason.
I fear you might be right.
Thank you.
I'm counting on you, Bruce.
We all are.
Run diagnostics.
Show me her memory file.
Sire, the file appears entangled.
It was a memory, but not hers.
There's another consciousness
sharing her network.
Another Nebula.
Impossible.
This duplicate carries a time stamp...
from nine years in the future.
Where is this other Nebula?
In our solar system.
On Morag.
- Can you access her?
- Yes. The two are linked.
Search the duplicate's
memories, for Infinity Stones.
And these stones have been in a lot of
different places throughout history.
Our history. So, not a lot of
convenient spots to just drop in.
- Which means we have to pick our targets.
- Correct.
Freeze image.
Terrans.
Avengers.
Unruly wretches. What's
that reflection?
Amplify this, Maw.
I don't understand.
- Two Nebulas.
- No. The same Nebula.
From two different times.
Set course for Morag. Scan
the duplicate's memories.
I want to see everything.
My ladies, I'll see you after.
Go on.
- What are you doing?
- Ahh!
You're better off leaving the
sneaking to your brother.
Yeah, I was simply just
going for a walk, and uh...
What are you wearing?
I always wear this. This
is one of my favorites.
What's wrong with your eye?
Oh, my eye. That's... you
remember the Battle of Haroquin?
When I got hit in the
face with a broadsword?
You're not the Thor I
know at all, are you?
Yes, I am.
The future hasn't been
kind to you, has it?
I didn't say I'm
from the future.
I was raised by witches, boy.
I see with more than
eyes, and you know that.
I am totally, totally
from the future!
Yes, you are.
- I really need to talk to you.
- We can talk.
His head was over there...
His body over there...
What was the point.
I was too late.
I was just standing there.
- Some idiot with an ax.
- You're no idiot.
You're here aren't you? Seeking counsel
from the wisest person in Asgard.
- I guess, yeah.
- Idiot? No.
- A failure? Absolutely.
- That's a little bit harsh.
You do know what
that makes you?
Just like everyone else.
I'm not supposed to be
like everyone else, am I?
Everyone fails at who they
are supposed to be, Thor.
The measure of a
person, of a hero
is how well they succeed
at being who they are.
I really missed you, Mum.
Thor! I got it!
Get that rabbit!
- Ma, I have to tell you something.
- No, son. You don't.
You're here to repair
your future, not mine.
- But this is about your future.
- It's none of my business.
Hey.
You must be Mom.
I got the thing. Come
on, we got to move.
- I wish we had more time.
- This was a gift.
And you're going to be the
man you're meant to be.
- I love you, Mom.
- I love you.
And eat a salad.
- Come on. We gotta go.
- Goodbye.
- Three... two...
- No, wait!
Wh- what am I looking at?
Oh, sometimes it takes a second.
I'm still worthy.
Oh, boy.
Goodbye, Mom.
So he's an idiot?
What's that?
The tool of a thief.
Whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa...
This is the part where spikes come out,
with skeletons on the end and everything...
What are you talking about?
When you break into a place called
the temple of the Power Stone,
There's gonna be a bunch of booby
traps--- Okay. All right. Go ahead.
I wasn't always like this.
Me either.
But we work with
what we got, right?
Sync up.
Three.. two.. one...
You murdered trillions!
You should be grateful.
- Where are the stones?
- Gone.
- Reduced to atoms.
- You used them two days ago.
I used the stones to destroy the stones.
It nearly killed me.
But the work is done.
It always will be.
I am inevitable.
- What did you do to them?
- Nothing. Yet.
They're not trying to stop something
I'm going to do in our time.
They're trying to undo something
I've already done in theirs.
The stones...
I found them all.
I won.
Tipped the cosmic
scales to balance.
This is your future.
It's my destiny.
My father is many things. A
liar is not one of them.
Thank you, Daughter.
Perhaps I treated
you too harshly...
And that, is destiny fulfilled.
Sire, your Daughter...
No...
...is a traitor.
That's not me. It's not. I could never...
I would never betray you. Never.
I know.
And you'll have the
chance to prove it.
No...
He knows!
Barton? Barton, come in.
Romanoff? Come in, we have a problem.
Come on!
Come in, we have a prob....
Thanos knows.
Thanos...
Cap...
Sorry, buddy.
We got a problem.
Huh. Yeah, we do.
- Well, what are we gonna do now?
- You know what, give me a break, Steve.
I just got hit in the
head with a Hulk.
You said that we had one shot.
This, this was our shot.
We shot it. It's shot. Six stones or nothing.
Six stones or nothing.
You're repeating yourself, you know that?
You're repeating yourself.
You're repeating yourself.
You're repeating yourself.
- No!
- Come on.
You never wanted a time heist, you
went on board with the time heist...
- I dropped the ball.
- You ruined the time heist.
- Is that what I did?
- Yeah!
Are there any other options
with the Tesseract?
No, no, no. There's
no other options.
There's no do-overs. We're
not going anywhere else.
We have one particle left. Each.
That's it, alright? We use that...
Bye, bye. You're not going home.
Yeah, well if we don't try...
then no one else is
going home, either.
I got it.
There's another way. To retake the
Tesseract and acquire new particles.
We'll stroll down memory lane.
Military installation, Garden State.
Why were they both there?
They were there at a...I've
a vaguely exact idea.
How vague?
What are you talking about?
Where are we going?
- I know for a fact they were there...
- Who's they?
- What are we doing?
- And I know how I know.
Guys, what's up? What is it?
Well, it looks like
we're improvising.
- Right.
- What are we improvising?
Scott, get this back
to the compound.
Suit up.
What's in New Jersey?
- 0-4, 0-4...
- Uhh, 0-7.
- 0-7.
- Excuse me...
1-9-7-0.
- Are you sure?
- Cap. Captain. Steve, sorry.
America. Rogers. Look,
if you do this,
and this doesn't work,
you're not coming back.
Thanks for the pep
talk, pissant.
You trust me?
I do.
Your call.
Here we go.
Hey, man!
Make love, not war!
Clearly, you weren't
actually born here, right?
The idea of me was.
Right. Well, imagine
you're SHIELD, running a
quasi-fascistic
intelligence organization.
Where do you hide it?
In plain sight.
Good luck on your
mission, Captain.
Good luck on your
project, doctor.
You're new here?
Not exactly.
Gotcha.
Back in the game.
Arnim, you in there?
Arnim?
Hey!
The door's this way, pal.
Oh, yeah.
I'm looking for Dr. Zola.
Have you seen him?
Yeah, no, Dr. Zol... No,
I haven't seen a soul.
Pardon me.
Do I know you?
No, sir. I'm, a...
visitor from MIT.
Huh. MIT.
Got a name?
Howard.
Well that'll be
easy to remember.
Howard...
...Potts.
Well, I'm Howard Stark.
Hi.
Shit. Now, don't pull it.
Yeah...
You look a little green around
the gills there, Potts.
I'm fine. Just, long hours.
Wanna get some air?
- Hello, Potts.
- Yeah. That would be swell.
- That way.
- Okay.
Need your briefcase?
You're not one of
those, are ya, Potts?
- Hello.
- Dr. Pym?
That would be the number
that you called. Yes.
This is Capt. Stevens
from shipping.
- We have a package for you.
- Bring it up.
Well, that's the thing, sir.
We can't.
I'm confused. I thought
that was your job.
Well, it's just... Sir,
the box is glowing and,
to be honest, some of our mail
guys aren't feeling that great.
They didn't know
better, did they?
Yeah, they did. You
better get down here.
Excuse me. Out of the way!
So, flowers and sauerkraut. You
got a big date tonight?
My wife's expecting.
And, uh... Too much
time in the office.
- Congratulations.
- Thanks. Hold this, will you?
Yeah, sure.
- How far along is she?
- I don't know... uh...
She's at the point where she can't
stand the sound of my chewing.
I guess I'll be eating
dinner in the pantry again.
I have a little girl.
A girl would be nice. Less of a chance
she'd turn out exactly like me.
What'd be so awful about that?
Let's just say that the greater
good has rarely outweighed
my own self-interests.
- And you've never seen these 2 men before?
- No, I've got an eye for this.
- The 2 of them looked fishy.
- Can you describe them?
- Well, one of them had a hippie beard.
- Hippie? Like Bee Gees or Mungo Jerry?
Definitely Mungo Jerry.
Yeah, this is Chesler. I
need every available MPs
on sub-level 6. We have
a potential breach.
So, where are you
at with names?
Well, if it's a boy,
my wife likes Almanzo.
Might wanna let that stew on.
You got time.
Let me ask you a question.
When your kid was born...
- were you nervous?
- Wildly. Yeah.
Did you feel qualified?
Like you had any idea how to
successfully operate that thing?
I literally pieced it
together as I went along,
I thought about what
my Dad did, and...
My old man, he never met a problem
he couldn't solve with a belt.
I thought my Dad
was tough on me.
And now, looking back, I just
remember the good stuff, you know.
- He did drop the odd pearl.
- Yeah? Like what?
"No amount of money ever
bought a second of time."
Smart guy.
He did his best.
Let me tell you. That
kid's not even here yet
and, there's nothing I
wouldn't do for him.
Good to meet you, Potts.
Yeah, Howard...
Everything's gonna be all right.
Thank you for everything...
...you've done for
this country.
Jarvis.
Have we ever met that guy?
Seems very familiar.
Weird beard, though.
- You're weak.
- I'm you.
You can stop this.
You know you want to.
Did you see what
happens in the future?
Thanos finds the Soul Stone.
You wanna know
how he does that?
You wanna know, what
he does to you?
That's enough.
You disgust me.
But, that doesn't
mean you're useless.
How do I look?
Wow...
Under different circumstances,
this would be totally awesome.
I bet the raccoon didn't
have to climb a mountain.
Technically, he's not
a raccoon, you know.
Whatever. He eats garbage.
Welcome.
Natasha, daughter of Ivan.
Clint, son of Edith.
Who are you?
Consider me a guide.
To you, and to all who
seek the Soul Stone.
Okay. You tell us where it is.
Then we'll be on our way.
If only it were that easy.
What you seek lies
in front of you...
...as does what you fear.
The stone is down there.
For one of you.
For the other...
In order to take the stone, you
must lose that which you love.
An everlasting exchange.
A soul, for a soul.
How's it going?
Jesus...
Maybe he's making this shit up.
No. I don't think so.
Why, 'cause he knows
your Daddy's name?
I didn't.
Thanos left here with the stone
without his daughter.
It's not a coincidence.
Yeah.
Whatever it takes.
Whatever it takes.
If we don't get that stone,
billions of people stay dead.
Then I guess we both
know who it's gotta be.
I guess we do.
I'm starting to think, we've been
different people here, Natasha.
For the last five years I've been trying
to do one thing: Get to right here.
That's all it's been about.
Bringing everybody back.
- Oh, don't you get all decent on me now.
- What, you think I wanna do it?
I'm trying to save
your life, you idiot.
Yeah well, I don't want
you to, because I...
Natasha, you know
what I've done.
You know what I've become.
I don't judge people on
their worst mistakes.
Maybe you should.
You didn't.
You're a pain in my
ass, you know that?
Okay.
You win.
Tell my family I love them.
You tell them yourself.
Damn you!
Let me go.
No.
Please, no.
It's okay.
Please...
Did we get them all?
You telling me this'll
actually work?
Clint, where's Nat?
Do we know if she had family?
Yeah. Us.
What?
I just asked him a question...
Yeah, you're acting like she's dead.
Why are we acting like she's dead?
We have the stones, right?
As long as we have
the stones, Cap, we can bring
her back, isn't that right?
So stop this shit. We're the
Avengers, get it together.
We can't get her back.
- Wha- what?
- It can't be undone. It can't.
I'm sorry. No offense, but you're
a very earthly being. Okay?
We're talking about space magic.
And "can't" seems very () don't you think?
Look, I know that I'm way
outside my paygrade here.
But she still isn't
here, is she?
- Now that's my point.
- It can't be undone.
Or that's at least what the,
great floating guy had to say.
Maybe you wanna go talk to him?
Okay?
Go grab your hammer, and you
go fly and you talk to him.
It was supposed to be me.
She sacrificed her life for that
goddamned stone. She bet her life on it.
She's not coming back.
We have to make it worth it.
We have to.
We will.
Boom!
All right. The glove's ready.
Question is, who's gonna
snap their freaking fingers?
I'll do it.
It's okay.
- No, no, no, no. Stop. Stop.
- Hey, hey...
Thor, just wait.
We haven't decided who's
gonna put that on yet.
I'm sorry. What, were you just sitting
around waiting for the right opportunity?
We should at least discuss it.
Look, us sitting here staring at that
thing is not gonna bring everybody back.
I'm the strongest Avenger, okay? So
this responsibility falls upon me.
It's my duty. It's not that... It's...
stop it! Just let me.
Just let me do it. Just
let me do something good.
- Something great.
- Look...
It's not just the fact that
that glove is channeling
enough energy to light up a
continent, I'm telling you
you're in no condition.
What do you think is coursing
through my veins right now?
Cheez Whiz?
- Lightning.
- Yeah.
Lightning won't help you, pal.
It's gotta be me.
You saw what those stones did to Thanos.
It almost killed him.
None of you could survive.
How do we know you will?
I don't. But the
radiation's mostly gamma.
It's like...
I was meant for this.
Good to go, yeah?
Let's do it.
You remember everyone
Thanos snapped away five
years ago and just bringing
them back to now, today.
Don't change anything
from the last five years.
Got it.
Friday, do me a favor and
activate protocol 8.
Yes, boss.
Everybody comes home.
- Take it off. Take it off!
- No, wait. Bruce, are you okay?
Talk to me, Banner.
I'm okay. I'm okay.
Bruce!
Don't move him.
- Did it work?
- Worth a shot. It's over. It's okay.
Honey.
Honey.
Guys...
I think it worked!
I can't breathe. I can't breathe!
I can't breathe.
Canopy. Canopy. Canopy.
Rhodey, Rocket, get outta here!
Hurry up! Hurry up!
Come on!
Rhodey!
Mayday, mayday! Does anybody copy? We're
in the lower level, it's flooding!
- What?
- We're drowning! Does anybody copy? Mayday!
Wait! I'm here! I'm
here, can you hear me?
Cap?
Daughter.
Yes, Father.
So, this is the future.
Well done.
Thank you, Father. They
suspected nothing.
The arrogant never do.
Go.
Find the stones.
Bring them to me.
What will you do?
Wait.
Tell me something.
In the future, what
happens to you and me?
I tried to kill you.
Several times.
But eventually,
we become friends.
We become sisters.
Come on.
We can stop him.
Come on, buddy. Wake up.
That's my man.
You lose this again,
I'm keeping it.
What happened?
We messed with time.
It tends to mess back.
You'll see.
What's he been doing?
Absolutely nothing.
Where are the stones?
Lost somewhere under all this.
All I know is he
doesn't have them.
So we keep it that way.
- You know it's a trap, right?
- Yeah...
I don't much care.
Good.
Just as long as we're
all in agreement.
Let's kill him
properly this time.
You could not live
with your own failure.
Where did that bring you?
Back to me.
I thought by eliminating
half of life,
the other half would thrive.
But you've shown me,
that's impossible.
And as long as there are those
that remember what was,
there will always be those that
are unable to accept what can be.
They will resist.
Yep. We're all
kinds of stubborn.
I'm thankful.
Because now, I know
what I must do.
I will shred this universe
down to its last atom.
And then...
With the stones you've collected
for me, create a new one.
Teeming with life,
but knows not what it has lost
but only what it has been given.
A grateful universe.
Born out of blood.
They'll never know it.
Because you won't be
alive to tell them.
See you on the other side, man.
Hang on! I'm coming!
Oh, hey...
I know you.
Father. I have the stones.
What?!
Stop.
You're betraying us?
You don't have to do this.
I am... this.
No, you're not.
You've seen what we become.
Nebula, listen to her.
You can change.
He won't let me.
No!
Okay, Thor. Hit me.
Boss, wake up.
I knew it!
In all my years of conquest...
violence...
slaughter...
It was never personal.
But I'll tell you now...
what I'm about to do
to your stubborn,
annoying little planet...
I'm gonna enjoy it.
Very, very much.
Cap, you hear me?
Cap, it's Sam.
Can you hear me?
On your left.
Is that everyone?
What, you wanted more?
Avengers...
... assemble.
No, no. Give me that.
You have the little one.
Hey!
Holy cow.
You will not believe what's been going on.
Do you remember when we were in space?
And I got all dusty? I must've passed
out, 'cause I woke up, and you were gone.
But Doctor Strange was there, right?
He was like,
"It's been five years.
Come on, they need us!"
And then he started doing the yellow
sparkly thing that he does all the time...
What are you doing?
This is nice.
Gamora?
I thought I lost you.
Don't... touch... me!
You missed the first time...
then you got them
both the second time.
This is the one? Seriously?
The choices were him, or a tree.
Cap, what do you want me to
do with this damn thing?
Get those stones as
far away as possible!
No!
We need to get them back
where they came from.
No way to get them back. Thanos
destroyed the quantum tunnel.
Hold on!
That wasn't our
only time machine.
Anyone see an ugly
brown van up there?
Yes!
But you're not gonna
like where it's parked.
Scott, how long you need
to get that thing working?
Maybe ten minutes.
Get it started. We'll
get the stones to you.
We're on it, Cap.
Hey.
You said one out of 14
million, we win, yeah?
Tell me this is it.
If I tell you what
happens, it won't happen.
You better be right.
It's a mess back here.
It's... it's dead.
- What?
- It's dead.
I have to hotwire it.
Where's Nebula?
She's not responding.
Sire!
Clint!
Give it to me.
You took everything from me.
I don't even know who you are.
You will.
I got it!
Activate Instant Kill!
Rain fire!
But Sire, our troops!
Just do it!
Is anyone else seeing this?
I got this.
I got this!
Okay, I don't got this.
- Help! Somebody, help!
- Hey, Queens. Heads up.
Hang on. I got you, kid.
Hey! Nice to meet---
Oh! My God!
What the hell is this?
Friday, what are they firing at?
Something just entered
the upper atmosphere.
Oh, yeah!
Danvers, we need an assist here.
Hi. I'm Peter Parker.
Hey, Peter Parker. Got
something for me?
I don't know how you're
gonna get through all that.
Don't worry.
She's got help.
I am... inevitable.
And I...
am...
... Iron Man.
Mr. Stark?
Hey...
Mr. Stark? Can you hear me?
It's Peter.
We won.
Mr. Stark....
We won, Mr. Stark.
We won and you did it, sir.
You did it.
I'm sorry... Tony...
- Hey.
- Hey, Pep...
- Friday?
- Life functions critical.
Tony.
Look at me.
We're gonna be okay.
You can rest now.
Everybody wants a
happy ending, right?
But it doesn't always
roll that way.
Maybe this time.
I'm hoping if you
play this back,
it's in celebration.
I hope families are reunited,
I hope we get it back,
and something like a
normal version of the
planet has been restored.
If there ever was such a thing.
God, what a world.
Universe, now.
If you told me ten years
ago that we weren't alone,
let alone, you know,
to this extent,
I mean, I wouldn't have been surprised.
But come on, you know?
That epic forces of darkness and
light that have come into play.
And, for better or worse,
that's the reality Morgan's gonna
have to find a way to grow up in.
So I found the time and I
recorded a little greeting...
In the case of an untimely death.
On my part.
Not that, death in any
time isn't untimely.
This time travel thing that we're
gonna try and pull off tomorrow,
it's, it's got me scratching
my head about this.
But then again, that's the hero gig.
Part of the journey is the end.
Everything's gonna work out
exactly the way it's supposed to.
I love you 3,000.
You know, I wish
there was a way...
that I could let her know.
That we won.
We did it.
She knows.
They both do.
How you doing, Squirt?
- Good.
- You good?
- Okay. You hungry?
- Mm-hmm.
- What do you want?
- Cheeseburgers.
You know your Dad
liked cheeseburgers?
I'm gonna get you all the
cheeseburgers you want.
Okay.
So, when can we expect you back?
- About that...
- Thor. Your people need a king.
No, they already have one.
That's funny.
You're being serious?
It's time for me to be
who I am rather than
who I'm supposed to be.
But you, you're a leader.
That's who you are.
You know I'd make a lot
of changes around here.
I'm counting on it.
Your Majesty.
What will you do?
I'm not sure.
For the first time in a
thousand years, I...
I have no path. I do
have a ride, though.
Move it or lose it, hairbag.
Well, here we are.
Tree! Good to see you.
Well...
The As-Guardians of the
Galaxy back together again.
Where to first?
Just so you know, this is my ship still.
I'm in charge.
I know. I know. Of
course, you are.
Of course.
See, you say of course, but
then you touch the map.
It makes you think that maybe you
didn't realize I was in charge.
Quail, that's your own
insecurities in there. Okay?
I'm merely trying to be of service.
An assistant.
- Quill.
- That's what I said.
You should fight one another
for the honor of leadership.
Sounds fair.
- It's not necessary.
- It's not.
Okay?
I got some blasters unless
you guys wanna use knives.
Oh, yes. Please, use knives.
I am Groot.
Not necessary.
There shall be no
knifing one another.
Everybody knows who's in charge.
It's me.
Yes, you! Of course!
Of course. Of course.
Remember...
You have to return the stones at
the exact moment you got them.
Or you're gonna open up a bunch
of nasty alternative realities.
Don't worry, Bruce.
Clip all the branches.
You know, I tried.
When I had the gauntlet, the stones,
I really tried to bring her back.
- I miss them, man.
- Me, too.
You know, if you want,
I can come with you.
You're a good man, Sam.
This one's on me, though.
Don't do anything stupid
'till I get back.
How can I? You're taking
all the stupid with you.
Gonna miss you, Buddy.
It's gonna be okay, Buck.
How long is this gonna take?
For him? As long as he
needs, For us, five seconds.
Ready, Cap?
Alright. We'll meet
you back here, okay?
You bet.
Going quantum. Three..
two.. one...
And returning in, five,
four, three, two, one...
Where is he?
I don't know. He blew right by his
time stamp. He should be here.
- Well, get him back.
- I'm trying.
- Get him the hell back.
- I said, I'm trying!
Sam.
Go ahead.
Cap?
Hi, Sam.
So did something go wrong,
or did something go right?
Well, after I put the
stones back, I thought...
Maybe I'll try some
of that life Tony was...
telling me to get.
How did that work out for you?
It was beautiful.
I'm happy for you. Truly.
Thank you.
Only thing bumming me
out is the fact I have
to live in a world
without Captain America.
Oh...
That reminds me...
Try it on.
How's it feel?
Like it's someone else's.
It isn't.
Thank you.
I'll do my best.
That's why it's yours.
You wanna tell me about her?
No.
No, I don't think I will.

I hope so...Today is day 21... uh, 22.You know, if it wasn&#39;t forthe existensial terror ofstaring into theliteral void of space,I&#39;d say, I&#39;m feelingmore better today.The infection&#39;s run its course,thanks to the blue meanie back there.You&#39;d love her. Very practical.Only a tiny bit sadistic.Some fuel cells were cracked during battle, butwe figured out a way to reverse the ion chargeto buy ourselves, about,48 hours of playtime.But it&#39;s now dead in the water.We&#39;re 1,000 lightyearsfrom the nearest 7-11.Oxygen will run outtomorrow morning.That&#39;ll be it.And Pep, I...I know I said nomore surprises, butI gotta say I was really hopingto pull off one last one.But it looks like...Well, you know whatit looks like.Don&#39;t feel bad about this.I mean actually if yougrovel for a couple weeks,and then, move onwith enormous guilt.I should probably lie down.I&#39;m gonna caress myPlease know that...When I drift off, it will begoodbye the whole time...I&#39;ll think about you.Because it&#39;s always you.- Couldn&#39;t stop him.- Neither could I.I lost the kid.Tony, we lost.Is, umm...Oh, my God!It&#39;s okay.It&#39;s been 23 days sinceThanos came to Earth.World governments are in pieces.The parts that are still workingare trying to take a census,And it looks like he did...He did exactly what he said hewas gonna do. Thanos wiped out.....fifty percent ofall living creatures.Where is he now? Where?We don&#39;t know.He just opened a portaland walked through.What&#39;s wrong with him?He&#39;s pissed.He thinks he failed.Which of course he did, but there&#39;s alot of that goin&#39; around, ain&#39;t there?Honestly, at this exact second, Ithought you were a Build-A-Bear.Maybe I am.We&#39;ve been hunting Thanosfor three weeks now.Deep space scans, andsatellites, and we got nothing.- Tony you fought him.- Who told you that?Didn&#39;t fight him.No. He wiped my facewith a planet while aBleecker Street magiciangave away the stone.- That&#39;s what happened. There was no fight...- Okay.Did he give you any clues?Any coordinates, anything?Pfft!I saw this coming a few years back. I hada vision. I didn&#39;t wanna believe it.Thought I was dreaming.- Tony I&#39;m gonna need you to focus.- And I needed you.As in past tense. That trumps whatyou need. It&#39;s too late, buddy.Sorry.You know what I need?I need to shave.- And I believe I rememeber telling- Tony, Tony, Tony...why that otherwise,that what we needed was a suit of armoraround the world. Remember that?Whether it impacted our preciousfreedoms, or not. That&#39;s what we needed.- Well that didn&#39;t work out, did it?- I said we&#39;d lose.You said, &quot;We&#39;ll dothat together, too.&quot;Well guess what, Cap? We lost.You weren&#39;t there.But that&#39;s what we do, right?Our best work after the fact?We&#39;re the Avengers? We&#39;re the Avengers?Not the Prevengers?Okay. You made your point.Just sit down, okay?- No, no. Here&#39;s my... She&#39;s great, by the way.- Tony, sit, sit down!We need you. You&#39;re new blood.Bunch of tired old mills...I got nothing for you, Cap.I got no coordinates,no clues, no strategies,no options...Zero. Zip. Nada. Notrust, you liar...Here, take this. You findhim and you put that on.You hide.- Tony!- I&#39;m fine. I...Bruce gave him a sedative. He&#39;s gonnaprobably be out for the rest of the day.You guys take care of him. And I&#39;ll bringan Bezurian elixir when I come back.- Where are you going?- To kill Thanos.Hey.You know we usually workas a team here, andbetween you and I we&#39;realso a little fragile.We realize up there is more yourterritory but this is our fight, too.- You even know where he is?- I know people who might.Don&#39;t bother.I can tell you where Thanos is.Thanos spent a long timetrying to perfect me.Then when he worked, hetalked about his great plan.Even disassembled, Iwanted to please him.I&#39;d ask, where would we goonce his plan was complete?His answer was always the same.To The Garden.That&#39;s cute. Thanos hasa retirement plan.So where is he, then?When Thanos snapped his fingers,Earth became ground zero for a power surgeof ridiculously cosmic proportions.No one&#39;s ever seen anything like it...until two days ago.On this planet.Thanos is there.He used the stones again.Hey, hey, hey...We&#39;d be going inshort-handed, you know?- Look, he still got the stones, so...- So let&#39;s get him.- We use them to bring everyone back.- Just like that?Yeah. Just like that.Even if there&#39;s a small chancethat we can undo this...I mean, we owe it to everyonewho&#39;s not in this room to try.If we do this, how do we know it&#39;s gonnaend any differently than it did before?Because before, youdidn&#39;t have me.Hey, new girl, everybody in thisroom is about that superhero life.And if you don&#39;t mind my asking, wherethe hell have you been all this time?There are a lot of otherplanets in the universe.And unfortunately, theydidn&#39;t have you guys.I like this one.Let&#39;s go get thisson of a bitch.Okay. Who here hasn&#39;tbeen to space?You better not throwup on my ship.Approaching jump in 3.. 2.. 1.I&#39;ll head down for recon.- This is gonna work Steve.- I know it will.Because I don&#39;t know whatI&#39;m gonna do if it doesn&#39;t.No satellites, no ships, no armies,no ground defenses of any kind.It&#39;s just him.Then that&#39;s enough.Oh, no.Where are they?Answer the question.The universerequired correction.After that, the stones servedno purpose, beyond temptation.You murdered trillions!You should be grateful.- Where are the stones?- Gone.- Reduced to atoms.- You used them two days ago.I used the stones todestroy the stones.It nearly killed me.But the work is done.It always will be.I am inevitable.We have to tear this place apart.He has to be lying.My father is many things.A liar is not one of them.Thank you, Daughter.Perhaps I treatedyou too harshly...What... what did you do?I went for the head.So I, uh...Went on a date the other day.It&#39;s the first time in five years,you know? Sit there, dinner...I didn&#39;t know whatto talk about.What did you talk about?Same old crap, you know? Howthings have changed, and...My job, his job....How much we miss the Mets.Then things get quiet..He cried as they wereserving the salads.What about you?I cried just before dessert.But I&#39;m seeing himagain tomorrow, so...That&#39;s great.You did the hardest part.You took the jump, youdidn&#39;t know where youwere gonna come down.And that&#39;s it. That&#39;s those littlebrave baby steps you gotta take.To try and become whole again.To try and find purpose.I went in the ice in &#39;45 rightafter I met the love of my life.Woke up 70 years later.You got to move on.Got to move on.The world is in our hands.It&#39;s left to us guys.And we got to dosomething with it.Otherwise...Thanos should&#39;vekilled all of us.What the hell?Hope?Kid! Hey, kid!What the hell happened here?My God...No. Please. Please, please.No, no, no...Excuse me. Sorry.No, Cassie, no.No.No, no.Please, please,please, please....No, Cassie...What?Cassie?Dad?You&#39;re so big!Yeah, we boarded that highlysuspect warship Danvers pinged.It was an infectiousgarbage scowl.So, thanks for the hot tip.- Well, you were closer.- Yeah. And now we smell like garbage.You get a readingon those tremors?It was a mild subductionunder the African plate.Do we have a visual? Howare we handling it?Nat, it&#39;s an earthquakeunder the ocean.We handle it by not handling it.Carol, are we seeingyou here next month?- Not likely.- What, you gonna get another haircut?Listen, fur-face. I&#39;mcovering a lot of territory.The things that arehappening on Earth arehappening everywhere, onthousands of planets.That&#39;s a good point.That&#39;s a good point.So you might not seeme for a long time.All right. Uh, well...This channel is always active.So, anything goes sideways...Anyone&#39;s making troublewhere they shouldn&#39;t...- Comes through me.- Okay.All right.Good luck.- Where are you?- Mexico.The federales found aroom full of bodies.Looks like a bunch of cartel guys. Nevereven had the chance to get their guns off.- It&#39;s probably a rival gang...- Except it isn&#39;t.It&#39;s definitely Barton.What he&#39;s done here, what he&#39;sbeen doing for the last few years,I mean, the scenethat he left...I gotta tell you, there&#39;s a part ofme that doesn&#39;t even wanna find him.Will you find out wherehe&#39;s going next?Nat...Please.Okay.You know I&#39;d offer to clip your dinnerbut you seem pretty miserable already.You here to do your laundry?And to see a friend.Clearly, your friend is fine.You know I saw a pod of whaleswhen I was coming up the bridge.- In the Hudson?- There&#39;s fewer ships, cleaner water.You know, if you&#39;re about to tellme to look on the bright side...Um...I&#39;m about to hit you in the headwith a peanut butter sandwich.Sorry. Force of habit.You know I keep telling everybodythey should move on and... grow.Some do.But not us.- If I move on, who does this?- Maybe it doesn&#39;t need to be done.I used to have nothing.And then I got this.This job.This family.And I was... I wasbetter because of it.And even though...they&#39;re gone...Now, I&#39;m stilltrying to be better.I think we bothneed to get a life.You first.Oh... Hi. Hi!Is anyone home?This is Scott Lang.We met a few years ago, at the airport?In Germany?I got really big andI had my mask on.- You wouldn&#39;t recognize me.- Is this an old message?Ant-Man? Ant-Man, Iknow you know that.It&#39;s the front gate.I need to talk to you guys.Scott.- Are you okay?- Yeah.Have either of you guys everstudied quantum physics?Only in mid-conversation.Alright. So...Five years ago, right before...Thanos,I was in a place calledthe quantum realm.The quantum realm is like itsown microscopic universe.To get in there, you have to beincredibly small. Hope, she&#39;s my...She... she was my...She was supposed to pull me out.And then Thanos happened, and- I got stuck in there.- Sorry. That must&#39;ve been a long 5 years.Yeah, but that&#39;s just it.It wasn&#39;t.For me it was five hours.See, the rules of the quantum realmaren&#39;t like they are up here.Everything is unpredictable. Is thatanybody&#39;s sandwich? I&#39;m starving.Scott.What are you talking about?So...What I&#39;m saying is...Time works differentlyin the quantum realm.The only problem is right now, wedon&#39;t have a way to navigate it.But what if we did?I can&#39;t stop thinking about it. Whatif we could somehow control the chaos,and we could navigate it? What ifthere was a way that we can enterthe quantum realm at a certainpoint in time but thenexit the quantum realm atanother point in time? Like...Like before Thanos.Wait, are you talkingabout a time machine?No. No, of course not.No, not a time machine.It&#39;s more like a...Yeah, a time machine. I know it&#39;s crazy.It&#39;s crazy.But I can&#39;t stop thinking about it.There&#39;s gotta be...Some wa... It&#39;s crazy.I get e-mails from a raccoon. So,nothing sounds crazy anymore.So who do we talk to about this?Chow-time!Morgoona.Morgan H. Stark.Want some lunch?- Define lunch or be disintegrated.- Okay.You should not bewearing that, okay?That is part of a special anniversarygift I&#39;m making for Mom.There you go. Are youthinking about lunch?Want a handful of crickets?- No.- That&#39;s what you want.- How did you find this?- Garage.Really?- Were you looking for it?- No.I found it, though.You like going to the garage, huh?So does Daddy.It&#39;s fine actually. Mom neverwears anything I wear.Now, we know whatit sounds like...Tony after everything you&#39;ve seen,is anything really impossible...Quantum fluctuation messeswith the Planck scale,which then triggers the Deutschproposition. Can we agree on that?Thank you.In Layman&#39;s terms, it meansyou&#39;re not coming home.- I did.- No.You accidentally survived. It&#39;s a---It&#39;s a billion-to-onecosmic fluke.And now you wanna pull a...What do you call it?- A time heist?- Yeah. Time heist.Of course. Why didn&#39;t wethink of this before?Oh! Because it&#39;s laughable?Because it&#39;s a pipedream?The stones are in the past. Wecan go back and we can get them.We can snap our own fingers.We can bring everybody back.Or screw it up worse thanhe already has, right?I don&#39;t believe we would.Gotta say this. Sometimes, Imiss that giddy optimism.However, high hopes won&#39;thelp if there&#39;s no logical,tangible, way for me to safelyexecute said time heist.I believe the most likely outcomewill be our collective demise.Not if we strictly followthe rules of time travel.That means no talking to our past selves,no betting on sporting events...I&#39;m gonna stop youright there, Scott.Are you seriously tellingme that your plan tosave the universe is basedon Back to the Future?- No.- Good. You had me worried there.&#39;Cause that&#39;d be horseshit. That&#39;snot how quantum physics works.Tony...We have to take a stand.We did stand. Andyet, here we are.I know you got a lot on the line.You got a wife, a daughter.But I lost someone very important to me.A lot of people did.And now, now, we have a chance to bringher back. To bring everyone back.And you&#39;re telling methat you won&#39;t even...That&#39;s right, Scott.I won&#39;t. Leave it.Got a kid.Mommy told me tocome and save you.Good job. I&#39;m saved.I wish you&#39;d come here toask me something else.Anything else. Honestly, Imissed you guys, it was...- Oh, and table&#39;s set for six.- Tony, I get it.And I&#39;m happy for you.I really am.But this is a second chance.I got my second chanceright here, Cap.I can&#39;t roll the dice again.If you don&#39;t talk shop,you can stay for lunch.- He&#39;s scared.- He&#39;s not wrong.Yeah, but I mean,what are we gonna do?We need him. What,are we gonna stop?No. I wanna do it right.We&#39;re gonna need areally big brain.Bigger than his?Come on. I feel like I&#39;m the onlyone eating. Try some of that.Have some eggs.I&#39;m so confused.- These are confusing times.- Right. No, no...- That&#39;s not what I meant. I...- No, I get it.I&#39;m kidding! I know. It&#39;s crazy.- I&#39;m wearing shirts now.- Yeah! How? Why?Five years ago wegot our asses beat.Except it was worse for me.Because I lost twice.First, Hulk lost. Then Banner lost.Then, we all lost.- No one blamed you, Bruce.- I did.For years I&#39;ve beentreating the Hulk like he&#39;ssome kind of disease,something to get rid of.But then I started lookingat him as the cure.Eighteen months in a gamma lab. I putthe brains and the brawn together.And now look at me.Best of both worlds.- Excuse me, Mr. Hulk?- Yes?- Can we get a photo?- 100%, little person.Come on, step on up. You mind?Oh.- Say &quot;green.&quot;- Green.Greeeen.- Did you get that?- That&#39;s good.Don&#39;t you wanna grab one with me?I&#39;m Ant-Man.They&#39;re Hulk fans.They don&#39;t know Ant-Man.- Nobody does.- Wait, no, no, he wants to...You want to take apicture with him, right?He&#39;s even saying no he doesn&#39;t.I get it.I don&#39;t want it either. I don&#39;twant a picture with them.- He&#39;s gonna feel bad.- Sorry.- They said they&#39;d do it.- I don&#39;t want it anymore.- You&#39;d feel bad...- Take the goddamn phone.Thank you, Mr. Hulk.No, it&#39;s great, kids.Thank you very much.- Hulk out!- Bruce.- Dab.- Bruce.Listen to your Mom.She knows better.- About we were saying...- Right.The whole time travel do-over?Guys, it&#39;s outside ofmy area of expertise.Well, you pulled this off.I remember a time when thatseemed pretty impossible, too.Look at a mod inspiration,let me see what checks out.So, recommend one last sim beforewe pack it in for the night.This time, in the shape of amobius strip, inverted. Please?Processing...Give me that eigenvalue. That, particlefactoring, and spectral decomp.- Gotta take a second.- Just a moment.And don&#39;t worry if it doesn&#39;t pan out.I&#39;m just kinda...Model rendered.Shit!Shit!What are you doingup, Little Miss?- Shit.- No. We don&#39;t say that.Only Mommy says that word. Shecoined it, it belongs to her.Why you up?&#39;Cause I got some important shitgoing on here. What do you think?No, I got something on my mind.I got something on my mind.- Was it Juice Pops?- Sure was.That&#39;s extortion.Great minds think alike. JuicePops, exactly was on...my mind.You done? Yeah? Now you are.- That face, goes there.- Tell me a story.A story.Once upon a time, a littlegirl went to bed. The end.That ain&#39;t the whole story.Come on, that&#39;s yourfavorite story.I love you tons.I love you 3,000.Wow.3,000. That&#39;s crazy.Go to bed. Or I&#39;llsell all your toys.Night-night.Not that it&#39;s a competition,but she loves me 3,000.You were somewhere inthe low 6 to 900 range.- What you reading?- Just a book on composting.What&#39;s new with composting?- Just ....- I figured it out...by the way.You know, just so we&#39;re talkingabout the same thing...Time travel.What?Wow.That&#39;s...Amazing, and.... terrifying.That&#39;s right.- I got really lucky.- Yeah. I know.- A lot of people didn&#39;t.- No, I can&#39;t help everybody.- It sorta seems like you can.- Not if I stop.I can put a pin in itright now, and stop.Tony...trying to get you to stop has been oneof the few failures of my entire life.I sometimes feel I should put it in a lockedbox and drop it at the bottom of a lake......go to bed.But would you be able to rest?Okay, here we go. Timetravel test number one.Scott, fire up the, uhh...The van thing.Breakers are set. Emergencygenerators are on standby.Good. &#39;Cause if we blow the grid, I don&#39;twanna lose Tiny here in the 1950&#39;s.- Excuse me?- He&#39;s kidding.You can&#39;t say things like that.Just... it was, just a bad joke.- You were kidding, right?- I have no idea.We&#39;re talking about time travel here.Either it&#39;s all a joke, or none of it is.We&#39;re good! Get your helmet on.Scott, I&#39;m gonna send youback a week, but you&#39;ll walkaround for an hour, then bringyou back in 10 seconds.- Makes sense?- Perfectly not confusing.Good luck, Scott. You got this.You&#39;re right. I do,Captain America.On the count of three.3.. 2.. 1..Guys? This doesn&#39;t feel right.- What&#39;s going on? Hold on.- Who is that?- Is that Scott?- Yes, it&#39;s Scott!Ooh! My back!- Can you bring him back?- I&#39;m working on it!A baby.- It&#39;s Scott.- As a baby!Bring Scott back.When I say kill thepower, kill the power.And... kill it!Somebody peed my pants.I don&#39;t know if it was&quot;baby&quot; me or &quot;old&quot; me.Or, just &quot;me&quot; me.Time travel!What?I see this as an absolute win.Why the long face?Let me guess. Heturned into a baby.Among other things, yeah.What are you doing here?That&#39;s the EPR paradox.Instead of pushing Lang through time, youmight&#39;ve wound up pushing time through Lang.It&#39;s tricky. Dangerous. Somebodycoulda cautioned you against it.- You did.- Oh, did I?Thank God, I&#39;m here.Regardless, I fixed it.A fully functioningtime-space GPS.I just want peace.Turns out, resentment iscorrosive, and I hate it.Me, too.We got a shot at gettingthese stones, but Igotta tell you mypriority is to bring backwhat we lost? I hope, yes.Keep what I found? Ihave to, at all costs.And, maybe not dietrying will be nice.Sounds like a deal.- Tony, I don&#39;t know...- Why? He made it for you.Plus, honestly I have to get it out thegarage before Morgan takes it sledding.Thank you, Tony.Will you keep that a little quietly?Didn&#39;t bring one for the whole team.- We are getting, the whole team, yeah?- We&#39;re working on that right now.- Hey, humie! Where&#39;s big green?- Kitchen. I think.- That&#39;s awesome.- Rodent, careful on re-entry.There&#39;s an idiot onthe landing zone.Oh, God!What&#39;s up, regular-sized man?Kind of a step down from a golden palacefor an Avenger highness or whatnot.Hey, have a little compassion, pal.First, they&#39;ve lost Asgard,then half the people. They&#39;re probablyjust happy they have a home.You shouldn&#39;t have come!Valkyrie!Great to see you, Angry Girl.I think I liked you bettereither of the other ways.- This is Rocket.- How you doin&#39;?- He won&#39;t see you.- That bad, huh?We only see him once a month,when he comes in for......supplies.- It&#39;s that bad.- Yeah.What the...Woo! Something died in here.Hello? Thor?Are you here about the cable?The Cinemax ran out two weeks ago,and, sports were all kind of fuzzy...Boys! Oh, my God!My God! How have you been?Come here, you little rascal!No, I&#39;m good! I&#39;m good.That&#39;s not necessary!Hulk, you know my friends,Miek, Korg, right?- Hey, boys!- Hey, guys. Long time no see.Beer&#39;s on the bucket. Feelfree to log on to the wi-fi.No password, obviously.Thor, he&#39;s back. That kid on the TVwho&#39;s called me a dickhead again.- Noobmaster.- Yeah, Noobmaster69.Noobmaster. Hey, it&#39;s Thor again.You know, the God of Thunder?Listen, buddy. If you don&#39;t log offthis game immediately I&#39;m gonna flyhome to your house, come down tothat basement you&#39;re hiding in,rip off your arms thenshove them up your butt!Oh, that&#39;s right. Yes, go cry toyour father, you little weasel!Thank you, Thor.Let me know if hebothers you again, okay?Thank you very much.

Why,don&#39;t I look all right?You look like melted ice cream.So, what&#39;s up?We need your help. There might bea chance we could fix everything.What, like the cable? &#39;Cause that&#39;sbeen driving me bananas for weeks.Like Thanos.Don&#39;t say that name.Um, yeah. We don&#39;t actuallysay that name in here.Please take your hand off me.Now, I know that...guy might scare you.Why would I be? Why would, whywould I be scared of that guy?I&#39;m the one who killedthat guy, remember?Anyone else herekilled that guy?Nope. Didn&#39;t think so.Korg, why don&#39;t you, tell everybodywho chopped Thanos&#39; big head off.Umm... Stormbreaker?Now, who&#39;s swingingStormbreaker?I get it. You&#39;re in a rough spot, okay?I&#39;ve been there myself.You wanna know whohelped me out of it?I don&#39;t know. Is it... Natasha?It was you.You helped me.Why don&#39;t you ask the,Asgardians down there,how much my help was worth.The ones that are left, anyway.I think we can bring them back.Stop. Just, stop...I know you think I&#39;m down here wallowing inmy own self-pity, waiting to be rescued andand saved. But I&#39;m fine, okay?We&#39;re fine, aren&#39;t we?Nah, all good here, mate!So, whatever it is thatyou&#39;re offering, we&#39;renot into it, don&#39;t care,couldn&#39;t care less.Goodbye.We need you, pal.There&#39;s beer on the ship.What kind?It&#39;s him! He&#39;s after Akihiko!We never did anything to you!You&#39;re done hurting people.You&#39;re crazy!Wait! Help me!What I want...You can&#39;t give me.You shouldn&#39;t be here.Neither should you.I&#39;ve got a job to do.Is that what you&#39;recalling this?Killing all these people isn&#39;tgonna bring your family back.We found something.A chance, maybe...Don&#39;t.Don&#39;t what?Don&#39;t give me hope.I&#39;m sorry I couldn&#39;tgive it to you sooner.Drifting left. On theside there, Lebowski.- Ratchet, how&#39;s it going?- It&#39;s Rocket.Take it easy. You&#39;re onlya genius on Earth, pal.Yup.Time travel suit? Not bad.Hey, hey, hey. Easy, easy!- I&#39;m being very careful.- No, you&#39;re being very Hulky.- I&#39;m being careful.- These are Pym particles, all right?And ever since Hank Pym got snappedout of existence, this is it.This is what we have. We&#39;renot making any more.- Scott, calm down.- Sorry.We&#39;ve got enough forone round trip, each.That&#39;s it. No do-overs.Plus, two test runs.One test run.All right. I&#39;m notready for this.I&#39;m game.I&#39;ll do it.Clint, now you&#39;re gonna feela little discombobulatedfrom the chronoshift.Don&#39;t worry about it.Wait a second, let meask you something.If we can do this, you know, goback in time, why don&#39;t we justfind baby Thanos, you know?And...- First of all, that&#39;s horrible.- It&#39;s Thanos.And secondly, time doesn&#39;t work that way.Changing the past doesn&#39;t change the future.Look, we go back, we get thestones before Thanos gets them...Thanos doesn&#39;t have the stones.Problem solved.- Bingo.- That&#39;s not how it works.- Well, that&#39;s what I heard.- What? By who? Who told you that?Star Trek, Terminator,TimeCop, Time After Time,- Quantum Leap.- A Wrinkle in Time,- Somewhere in Time,- Hot Tub Time Machine.Bill and Ted&#39;s Excellent Adventure. Basically,any movie that deals with time travel.Die Hard? No, it&#39;s not...This is known.I don&#39;t know why everyone believesthat, but that isn&#39;t true.Think about it: If you travel to thepast, that past becomes your future.And your former presentbecomes the past.Which can&#39;t now be changedby your new future...Exactly.So Back to the Future&#39;sa bunch of bullshit?All right, Clint. We&#39;re going in 3..2.. 1...Cooper?- Where are my headphones?- Lila?Lila! No!Dad?Dad?Hey, hey. Look at me. You okay?Yeah.It worked.It worked.Okay, so the &quot;how&quot; works.Now we gotta figure out the&quot;when,&quot; and the &quot;where.&quot;Almost everyone in thisroom has had an encounterwith at least one of thesix Infinity Stones.Well, I&#39;d subtitute theword &#39;encounter&#39; for &#39;damnnear been killed by one ofthe six Infinity Stones.&#39;I haven&#39;t. I don&#39;t even know whatthe hell you&#39;re all talking about.Regardless, we only have enough PymParticles for one round trip each,and these stones have been in a lot ofdifferent places throughout history.Our history. So, not a lot ofconvenient spots to just drop in.- Which means we have to pick our targets.- Correct.So. Let&#39;s startwith the Aether.Thor, what do you know?Is he asleep?Where to start? Umm...The Aether, first,is not a stone.Someone&#39;s called it a stone before.Ahem...It&#39;s more of a... an angrysludge, sort of thing. So...Someone&#39;s gonna need to amendthat, and stop saying that.Here&#39;s an interestingstory, though.About the Aether. Mygrandafther, many yearsago, had to hide the stonefrom the Dark Elves.Scary beings. So Jane...Oh, there she is. That&#39;s Jane...She&#39;s... an old flame of mine.She... she stuck her handinside a rock this one time...and then the Aether stuckitself inside her.And, she became very, very sick.So I had to take her toAsgard, which is where I&#39;m from.And we had to try and fix her.We were dating at the time, you see. Igot to introduce her to my Mother...who&#39;s dead, and umm....Oh, you know. Jane and I aren&#39;teven dating anymore, so...These things happen though, you know.Nothing lasts forever.- The only thing that...- Why don&#39;t you come sit down.I&#39;m not done yet. The only thing thatis permanent in life, is impermanence.Awesome.Eggs? Breakfast?No. I&#39;d like a Bloody Mary.Quill said he stole thePower Stone from Morag.- Is that a person?- Morag&#39;s a planet.Quill was a person.Like a planet? Likein outer space?Oh, look. It&#39;s like a littlepuppy, all happy and everything.Do you wanna go to space? Youwanna go to space, puppy?I&#39;ll take you to space.- Thanos found the Soul Stone on Vormir.- What is Vormir?A dominion of death, at the verycenter of Celestial existence.It&#39;s where... Thanosmurdered my sister.Noted.- That Time Stone guy...- Doctor Strange.Yeah, what kindof doctor was he?- Neurostuff meets rabbit from a hat.- Nice place in the village, though.- Yeah. Sullivan Street.- Hmm... Bleecker.Wait, he lived in New York?- No. He lived in Toronto.- Yeah, not Bleecker. It&#39;s Sullivan.Guys, if you pick the right year,there are three stones in New York.Shut the front door!All right. We have a plan.Six stones, threeteams, one shot.Five years ago, we lost.All of us.We lost friends...We lost family...We lost a part of ourselves.Today, we have a chanceto take it all back.You know your teams, youknow your missions.Get the stones, get them back.One round trip each. No mistakes.No do-overs.Most of us are goingsomewhere we know.But it doesn&#39;t mean weshould know what to expect.Be careful. Look outfor each other.This is the fight of our lives.And we&#39;re gonna win.Whatever it takes.Good luck.- He&#39;s pretty good at that.- Right?All right. You heard the man.Stroke those keys, jelly green.Tractors engaged.You promise to bring thatback in one piece, right?Yeah, yeah, yeah,yeah. Okay.- I&#39;ll do my best.- As promises go, that was pretty lame.See you in a minute.All right, we all have our assignments.Two stones uptown, one stone, down.Stay low. Keep aneye on the clock.Feel free to smash ifthings don&#39;t go your way.I think it&#39;s gratuitous,but whatever.I&#39;d be careful going that way.We just had the floors waxed.Ma&#39;am, I&#39;m lookingfor Doctor Strange.You&#39;re about... fiveyears too early.Stephen Strange is currently performingsurgery about twenty blocks that way.What do you want from him?That, actually.Ah.- I&#39;m afraid not.- Sorry, but I wasn&#39;t asking.- You don&#39;t wanna do this.- You&#39;re right. I don&#39;t.But I need that stone, andI don&#39;t have time to...Let&#39;s start over, shall we?That&#39;s Jane.All right.Here&#39;s the deal, Tubby:You&#39;re gonna charm her and I&#39;mgonna poke her with this thingand extract the Reality Stoneand get gone, lickety-split.I&#39;ll be right back, okay? There&#39;s awine cellar, that&#39;s just down there.My father used to fishwith a barrel of ale.- I&#39;ll see if the cellar has a couple of...- Hey! Aren&#39;t you drunk enough already?Who&#39;s the fancy broad?It&#39;s my Mother.She dies today.Oh. That&#39;s today?I can&#39;t do this.I can&#39;t do this.I shouldn&#39;t be here. I shouldn&#39;t have come.This was a bad idea.- Come here.- No, no, no. I think I&#39;m having...- I&#39;m having a panic attack.- Come here. Right here.You think you&#39;re the only one who lostpeople? What do you think we&#39;re doing here?I lost the onlyfamily I ever had.Quill, Groot, Drax, the chickwith the antenna, all gone.Now, I get you miss your Mom.But she&#39;s gone. Really gone.And there are plenty of peoplewho are only kinda gone.But you can help them.So is it too much to ask that youbrush the crumbs outta your beard,make schmoopy talk to PrettyPants, and when she&#39;s not looking,suck out the Infinity Stone andhelp me get my family back?Okay.- Are you crying?- No...Yes!Get it together!You can do this.You can do this.All right?- Yes, I can.- Good.I can do this.I can&#39;t do this.Alright, Heartbreaker. She&#39;s alone.This is our shot.Thor?Thor!Alright. Bring it down low.Right on that line. That&#39;s it.Down, down.Hey, can we hurry it up?Guys, chop-chop. Come on.We&#39;re on the clock.All that, is really helpful.- Take care, okay?- Yeah.Take that stone and come back.No messing around.- Hey.- You got this.- Let&#39;s get it done.- Yes, sir.See you back.You guys watch each other&#39;s six.Yeah.The coordinates forVormir are laid in.All they have to dois not fall out.We&#39;re a long way from Budapest.Okay, so, uhh...We just wait around for thisQuill guy to show up andthen he leads us to thePower Stone, is that it?Let&#39;s take cover.We&#39;re not the only ones in2014 looking for the stones.Wait a minute, what areyou talking about rightnow? Who else is lookingfor these stones?My father, my sister...- and me.- And you?Where are you right now?- You&#39;re welcome.- I didn&#39;t ask for your help.And yet, you always need it.Get up.- Father wants us back on the ship.- Why?He&#39;s found an Infinity Stone.- Where?- On a planet called Morag.Father&#39;s plan isfinally in motion.- One stone isn&#39;t six, Nebula.- It&#39;s a start.If he gets all of them...Ronan&#39;s located the Power Stone.I&#39;m dispatching you to his ship.- He won&#39;t like that.- His alternative is death, then.Ronan&#39;s obsessionclouds his judgement.We will not fail you, Father.No, you won&#39;t.I swear...I will make you proud.We just, wait around forthis Quill guy to show up,and then he leads us to thePower Stone, is that it?Let&#39;s take cover.We&#39;re not the only ones in2014 looking for the stones.- Who was that?- I don&#39;t know...My head is splitting...I don&#39;t know...Her synaptic drive wasprobably damaged in battle.Bring her to my ship.Got to hustle, Cap. Things look likethey&#39;re just about wrapped up here.Got it. I&#39;m approachingthe elevator now.If it&#39;s all the same to you...I&#39;ll have that drink now.All right. Good one. No standing around,I&#39;m closing up this door for later.By the way, feelfree to clean up.Ugh, Mr. Rogers. I almostforgot that that suit- did nothing for your ass.- No one asked you to look.I think you look great, Cap.As far as I&#39;m concerned,that&#39;s America&#39;s ass.- Uhh, magic wand?- STRIKE team&#39;s coming to secure it.We can take thatoff your hands.By all means.- Careful with that thing!- Unless you want your mind erased.- Not in a fun way.- We promise to be careful.- Who are these guys?- They are SHIELD...Well, actually Hydra. But,we didn&#39;t know that yet.Seriously, you didn&#39;t? I mean...they look like bad guys.You&#39;re small, butyou&#39;re talking loud.On my way down tocoordinate search and rescue.On my way down tocoordinate search and rescue!I mean, honestly!

He&#39;s the man, oneof the folks behind Nick Fury.My friends call me Mr. Secretary.I&#39;m gonna have to ask you toturn that prisoner over to me.- Loki will be answering to Odin himself.- Oh, he&#39;s gonna answer to us.Odin can have what&#39;s left. AndI&#39;m gonna need that case.That&#39;s been SHIELD propertyfor over 70 years.Hand over the case, Stark.All right, move it, Stuart Little. Thingsare getting dicey up here. Let&#39;s go.I&#39;m not gonna argue who&#39;s got thehigher authority here, all right?You promise me you won&#39;t die?You&#39;re only giving me amild cardiac dysrythmia.That doesn&#39;t sound mild.I need the case.I know you got a lotta pull.I&#39;m just saying...Okay.

I know.Where did you get this?Bucky... is... alive!What?That is America&#39;s ass.- Please, please!- I&#39;m sorry. I can&#39;t help you, Bruce.If I give up the Time Stone to helpyour reality, I&#39;m dooming my own.With all due respect, I&#39;m not surethe science really supports that.The Infinity Stones create what youexperience as the flow of time.Remove one of the stones,and that flow splits.Now this may benefit your reality.But my new one, not so much.In this new branched reality, without ourchief weapon against the forces of darkness,our world will be overrun.Millions will suffer.So, tell me, doctor, can yourscience prevent all that?No. But we can erase it.Because once we&#39;re done with the stones, wecan return each one into its own timelineat the moment it was taken.So, chronologically...In that reality....it never left.Yes, but you&#39;re leaving outthe most important part.In order to return thestones, you have to survive.We will. I will. I promise.I can&#39;t risk thisreality on a promise.It&#39;s the duty, of the SorcererSupreme to protect the Time Stone.Then why the hell didStrange give it away?- What did you say?- Strange. He gave it away.He gave it to Thanos.- Willingly?- Yes.- Why?- I have no idea. Maybe he made a mistake.Or I did.Strange was meant tobe the best of us.So he must&#39;ve doneit for a reason.I fear you might be right.Thank you.I&#39;m counting on you, Bruce.We all are.Run diagnostics.Show me her memory file.Sire, the file appears entangled.It was a memory, but not hers.There&#39;s another consciousnesssharing her network.Another Nebula.Impossible.This duplicate carries a time stamp...from nine years in the future.Where is this other Nebula?In our solar system.On Morag.- Can you access her?- Yes. The two are linked.Search the duplicate&#39;smemories, for Infinity Stones.And these stones have been in a lot ofdifferent places throughout history.Our history. So, not a lot ofconvenient spots to just drop in.- Which means we have to pick our targets.- Correct.Freeze image.Terrans.Avengers.Unruly wretches. What&#39;sthat reflection?Amplify this, Maw.I don&#39;t understand.- Two Nebulas.- No. The same Nebula.From two different times.Set course for Morag. Scanthe duplicate&#39;s memories.I want to see everything.My ladies, I&#39;ll see you after.Go on.- What are you doing?- Ahh!You&#39;re better off leaving thesneaking to your brother.Yeah, I was simply justgoing for a walk, and uh...What are you wearing?I always wear this. Thisis one of my favorites.What&#39;s wrong with your eye?Oh, my eye. That&#39;s... youremember the Battle of Haroquin?When I got hit in theface with a broadsword?You&#39;re not the Thor Iknow at all, are you?Yes, I am.The future hasn&#39;t beenkind to you, has it?I didn&#39;t say I&#39;mfrom the future.I was raised by witches, boy.I see with more thaneyes, and you know that.I am totally, totallyfrom the future!Yes, you are.- I really need to talk to you.- We can talk.His head was over there...His body over there...What was the point.I was too late.I was just standing there.- Some idiot with an ax.- You&#39;re no idiot.You&#39;re here aren&#39;t you? Seeking counselfrom the wisest person in Asgard.- I guess, yeah.- Idiot? No.- A failure? Absolutely.- That&#39;s a little bit harsh.You do know whatthat makes you?Just like everyone else.I&#39;m not supposed to belike everyone else, am I?Everyone fails at who theyare supposed to be, Thor.The measure of aperson, of a herois how well they succeedat being who they are.I really missed you, Mum.Thor! I got it!Get that rabbit!- Ma, I have to tell you something.- No, son. You don&#39;t.You&#39;re here to repairyour future, not mine.- But this is about your future.- It&#39;s none of my business.Hey.You must be Mom.I got the thing. Comeon, we got to move.- I wish we had more time.- This was a gift.And you&#39;re going to be theman you&#39;re meant to be.- I love you, Mom.- I love you.And eat a salad.- Come on. We gotta go.- Goodbye.- Three... two...- No, wait!Wh- what am I looking at?Oh, sometimes it takes a second.I&#39;m still worthy.Oh, boy.Goodbye, Mom.So he&#39;s an idiot?What&#39;s that?The tool of a thief.Whoa, whoa,whoa, whoa...This is the part where spikes come out,with skeletons on the end and everything...What are you talking about?When you break into a place calledthe temple of the Power Stone,There&#39;s gonna be a bunch of boobytraps--- Okay. All right. Go ahead.I wasn&#39;t always like this.Me either.But we work withwhat we got, right?Sync up.Three.. two.. one...You murdered trillions!You should be grateful.- Where are the stones?- Gone.- Reduced to atoms.- You used them two days ago.I used the stones to destroy the stones.It nearly killed me.But the work is done.It always will be.I am inevitable.- What did you do to them?- Nothing. Yet.They&#39;re not trying to stop somethingI&#39;m going to do in our time.They&#39;re trying to undo somethingI&#39;ve already done in theirs.The stones...I found them all.I won.Tipped the cosmicscales to balance.This is your future.It&#39;s my destiny.My father is many things. Aliar is not one of them.Thank you, Daughter.Perhaps I treatedyou too harshly...And that, is destiny fulfilled.Sire, your Daughter...No......is a traitor.That&#39;s not me. It&#39;s not. I could never...I would never betray you. Never.I know.And you&#39;ll have thechance to prove it.No...He knows!Barton? Barton, come in.Romanoff? Come in, we have a problem.Come on!Come in, we have a prob....Thanos knows.Thanos...Cap...Sorry, buddy.We got a problem.Huh. Yeah, we do.- Well, what are we gonna do now?- You know what, give me a break, Steve.I just got hit in thehead with a Hulk.You said that we had one shot.This, this was our shot.We shot it. It&#39;s shot. Six stones or nothing.Six stones or nothing.You&#39;re repeating yourself, you know that?You&#39;re repeating yourself.You&#39;re repeating yourself.You&#39;re repeating yourself.- No!- Come on.You never wanted a time heist, youwent on board with the time heist...- I dropped the ball.- You ruined the time heist.- Is that what I did?- Yeah!Are there any other optionswith the Tesseract?No, no, no. There&#39;sno other options.There&#39;s no do-overs. We&#39;renot going anywhere else.We have one particle left. Each.That&#39;s it, alright? We use that...Bye, bye. You&#39;re not going home.Yeah, well if we don&#39;t try...then no one else isgoing home, either.I got it.There&#39;s another way. To retake theTesseract and acquire new particles.We&#39;ll stroll down memory lane.Military installation, Garden State.Why were they both there?They were there at a...I&#39;vea vaguely exact idea.How vague?What are you talking about?Where are we going?- I know for a fact they were there...- Who&#39;s they?- What are we doing?- And I know how I know.Guys, what&#39;s up? What is it?Well, it looks likewe&#39;re improvising.- Right.- What are we improvising?Scott, get this backto the compound.Suit up.What&#39;s in New Jersey?- 0-4, 0-4...- Uhh, 0-7.- 0-7.- Excuse me...1-9-7-0.- Are you sure?- Cap.

Less of a chanceshe&#39;d turn out exactly like me.What&#39;d be so awful about that?Let&#39;s just say that the greatergood has rarely outweighedmy own self-interests.- And you&#39;ve never seen these 2 men before?- No, I&#39;ve got an eye for this.- The 2 of them looked fishy.- Can you describe them?- Well, one of them had a hippie beard.- Hippie?

Seriously?The choices were him, or a tree.Cap, what do you want me todo with this damn thing?Get those stones asfar away as possible!No!We need to get them backwhere they came from.No way to get them back. Thanosdestroyed the quantum tunnel.Hold on!That wasn&#39;t ouronly time machine.Anyone see an uglybrown van up there?Yes!But you&#39;re not gonnalike where it&#39;s parked.Scott, how long you needto get that thing working?Maybe ten minutes.Get it started. We&#39;llget the stones to you.We&#39;re on it, Cap.Hey.You said one out of 14million, we win, yeah?Tell me this is it.If I tell you whathappens, it won&#39;t happen.You better be right.It&#39;s a mess back here.It&#39;s... it&#39;s dead.- What?- It&#39;s dead.I have to hotwire it.Where&#39;s Nebula?She&#39;s not responding.Sire!Clint!Give it to me.You took everything from me.I don&#39;t even know who you are.You will.I got it!Activate Instant Kill!Rain fire!But Sire, our troops!Just do it!Is anyone else seeing this?I got this.I got this!Okay, I don&#39;t got this.- Help!

Gotsomething for me?I don&#39;t know how you&#39;regonna get through all that.Don&#39;t worry.She&#39;s got help.I am... inevitable.And I...am...... Iron Man.Mr. Stark?Hey...Mr. Stark? Can you hear me?It&#39;s Peter.We won.Mr. Stark....We won, Mr. Stark.We won and you did it, sir.You did it.I&#39;m sorry... Tony...- Hey.- Hey, Pep...- Friday?- Life functions critical.Tony.Look at me.We&#39;re gonna be okay.You can rest now.Everybody wants ahappy ending, right?But it doesn&#39;t alwaysroll that way.Maybe this time.I&#39;m hoping if youplay this back,it&#39;s in celebration.I hope families are reunited,I hope we get it back,and something like anormal version of theplanet has been restored.If there ever was such a thing.God, what a world.Universe, now.If you told me ten yearsago that we weren&#39;t alone,let alone, you know,to this extent,I mean, I wouldn&#39;t have been surprised.But come on, you know?That epic forces of darkness andlight that have come into play.And, for better or worse,that&#39;s the reality Morgan&#39;s gonnahave to find a way to grow up in.So I found the time and Irecorded a little greeting...In the case of an untimely death.On my part.Not that, death in anytime isn&#39;t untimely.This time travel thing that we&#39;regonna try and pull off tomorrow,it&#39;s, it&#39;s got me scratchingmy head about this.But then again, that&#39;s the hero gig.Part of the journey is the end.Everything&#39;s gonna work outexactly the way it&#39;s supposed to.I love you 3,000.You know, I wishthere was a way...that I could let her know.That we won.We did it.She knows.They both do.How you doing, Squirt?- Good.- You good?- Okay.

Your people need a king.No, they already have one.That&#39;s funny.You&#39;re being serious?It&#39;s time for me to bewho I am rather thanwho I&#39;m supposed to be.But you, you&#39;re a leader.That&#39;s who you are.You know I&#39;d make a lotof changes around here.I&#39;m counting on it.Your Majesty.What will you do?I&#39;m not sure.For the first time in athousand years, I...I have no path.

- Can you see?
- Yeah.
- You sure?
- Mm-hmm.
How about now?
Can you see now?
All right.
Ready? Three fingers.
Nice!
- Nice throw, kiddo!
- Go.
Hey, you guys want mayo
or mustard, or both?
Who wants mayo on a hotdog?
Pardon your brothers. Two mustards, please!
Thanks, momma.
Got it.
Nate, mayo or mustard?
I want ketchup.
Mind your elbow...
Good job, Hawkeye!
Go get your arrow.
Hey, guys. Enough practice.
Soup's on.
All right. We're coming.
We're hungry.
Lila, let's go.
Lila?
Honey?
Babe?
Babe?
Babe?
Boys!
Boys?
Laura!
You don't need to do that,
because you're just
holding the position.
Come on.
That was close.
That's a goal. We're
now one a-piece.
I would like to try again.
We're tied up.
Feel the tension? It's fun.
That was terrible. Now you
have a chance to win.
And you won. Congratulations.
Fair game.
Good sport.
You had fun?
It was fun.
This thing on?
Hey, Miss Potts... Pep.
If you find this recording...
don't post it, on social media.
It's gonna be a real tear-jerker.
I don't know if you're
ever gonna see these.
I don't even know
if you're still...
Oh, God. I hope so...
Today is day 21... uh, 22.
You know, if it wasn't for
the existensial terror of
staring into the
literal void of space,
I'd say, I'm feeling
more better today.
The infection's run its course,
thanks to the blue meanie back there.
You'd love her. Very practical.
Only a tiny bit sadistic.
Some fuel cells were cracked during battle, but
we figured out a way to reverse the ion charge
to buy ourselves, about,
48 hours of playtime.
But it's now dead in the water.
We're 1,000 lightyears
from the nearest 7-11.
Oxygen will run out
tomorrow morning.
That'll be it.
And Pep, I...
I know I said no
more surprises, but
I gotta say I was really hoping
to pull off one last one.
But it looks like...
Well, you know what
it looks like.
Don't feel bad about this.
I mean actually if you
grovel for a couple weeks,
and then, move on
with enormous guilt.
I should probably lie down.
I'm gonna caress my
Please know that...
When I drift off, it will be
goodbye the whole time...
I'll think about you.
Because it's always you.
- Couldn't stop him.
- Neither could I.
I lost the kid.
Tony, we lost.
Is, umm...
Oh, my God!
It's okay.
It's been 23 days since
Thanos came to Earth.
World governments are in pieces.
The parts that are still working
are trying to take a census,
And it looks like he did...
He did exactly what he said he
was gonna do. Thanos wiped out..
...fifty percent of
all living creatures.
Where is he now? Where?
We don't know.
He just opened a portal
and walked through.
What's wrong with him?
He's pissed.
He thinks he failed.
Which of course he did, but there's a
lot of that goin' around, ain't there?
Honestly, at this exact second, I
thought you were a Build-A-Bear.
Maybe I am.
We've been hunting Thanos
for three weeks now.
Deep space scans, and
satellites, and we got nothing.
- Tony you fought him.
- Who told you that?
Didn't fight him.
No. He wiped my face
with a planet while a
Bleecker Street magician
gave away the stone.
- That's what happened. There was no fight...
- Okay.
Did he give you any clues?
Any coordinates, anything?
Pfft!
I saw this coming a few years back. I had
a vision. I didn't wanna believe it.
Thought I was dreaming.
- Tony I'm gonna need you to focus.
- And I needed you.
As in past tense. That trumps what
you need. It's too late, buddy.
Sorry.
You know what I need?
I need to shave.
- And I believe I rememeber telling
- Tony, Tony, Tony...
why that otherwise,
that what we needed was a suit of armor
around the world. Remember that?
Whether it impacted our precious
freedoms, or not. That's what we needed.
- Well that didn't work out, did it?
- I said we'd lose.
You said, "We'll do
that together, too."
Well guess what, Cap? We lost.
You weren't there.
But that's what we do, right?
Our best work after the fact?
We're the Avengers? We're the Avengers?
Not the Prevengers?
Okay. You made your point.
Just sit down, okay?
- No, no. Here's my... She's great, by the way.
- Tony, sit, sit down!
We need you. You're new blood.
Bunch of tired old mills...
I got nothing for you, Cap.
I got no coordinates,
no clues, no strategies,
no options...
Zero. Zip. Nada. No
trust, you liar...
Here, take this. You find
him and you put that on.
You hide.
- Tony!
- I'm fine. I...
Bruce gave him a sedative. He's gonna
probably be out for the rest of the day.
You guys take care of him. And I'll bring
an Bezurian elixir when I come back.
- Where are you going?
- To kill Thanos.
Hey.
You know we usually work
as a team here, and
between you and I we're
also a little fragile.
We realize up there is more your
territory but this is our fight, too.
- You even know where he is?
- I know people who might.
Don't bother.
I can tell you where Thanos is.
Thanos spent a long time
trying to perfect me.
Then when he worked, he
talked about his great plan.
Even disassembled, I
wanted to please him.
I'd ask, where would we go
once his plan was complete?
His answer was always the same.
To The Garden.
That's cute. Thanos has
a retirement plan.
So where is he, then?
When Thanos snapped his fingers,
Earth became ground zero for a power surge
of ridiculously cosmic proportions.
No one's ever seen anything like it...
until two days ago.
On this planet.
Thanos is there.
He used the stones again.
Hey, hey, hey...
We'd be going in
short-handed, you know?
- Look, he still got the stones, so...
- So let's get him.
- We use them to bring everyone back.
- Just like that?
Yeah. Just like that.
Even if there's a small chance
that we can undo this...
I mean, we owe it to everyone
who's not in this room to try.
If we do this, how do we know it's gonna
end any differently than it did before?
Because before, you
didn't have me.
Hey, new girl, everybody in this
room is about that superhero life.
And if you don't mind my asking, where
the hell have you been all this time?
There are a lot of other
planets in the universe.
And unfortunately, they
didn't have you guys.
I like this one.
Let's go get this
son of a bitch.
Okay. Who here hasn't
been to space?
You better not throw
up on my ship.
Approaching jump in 3.. 2.. 1.
I'll head down for recon.
- This is gonna work Steve.
- I know it will.
Because I don't know what
I'm gonna do if it doesn't.
No satellites, no ships, no armies,
no ground defenses of any kind.
It's just him.
Then that's enough.
Oh, no.
Where are they?
Answer the question.
The universe
required correction.
After that, the stones served
no purpose, beyond temptation.
You murdered trillions!
You should be grateful.
- Where are the stones?
- Gone.
- Reduced to atoms.
- You used them two days ago.
I used the stones to
destroy the stones.
It nearly killed me.
But the work is done.
It always will be.
I am inevitable.
We have to tear this place apart.
He has to be lying.
My father is many things.
A liar is not one of them.
Thank you, Daughter.
Perhaps I treated
you too harshly...
What... what did you do?
I went for the head.
So I, uh...
Went on a date the other day.
It's the first time in five years,
you know? Sit there, dinner...
I didn't know what
to talk about.
What did you talk about?
Same old crap, you know? How
things have changed, and...
My job, his job....
How much we miss the Mets.
Then things get quiet..
He cried as they were
serving the salads.
What about you?
I cried just before dessert.
But I'm seeing him
again tomorrow, so...
That's great.
You did the hardest part.
You took the jump, you
didn't know where you
were gonna come down.
And that's it. That's those little
brave baby steps you gotta take.
To try and become whole again.
To try and find purpose.
I went in the ice in '45 right
after I met the love of my life.
Woke up 70 years later.
You got to move on.
Got to move on.
The world is in our hands.
It's left to us guys.
And we got to do
something with it.
Otherwise...
Thanos should've
killed all of us.
What the hell?
Hope?
Kid! Hey, kid!
What the hell happened here?
My God...
No. Please. Please, please.
No, no, no...
Excuse me. Sorry.
No, Cassie, no.
No.
No, no.
Please, please,
please, please....
No, Cassie...
What?
Cassie?
Dad?
You're so big!
Yeah, we boarded that highly
suspect warship Danvers pinged.
It was an infectious
garbage scowl.
So, thanks for the hot tip.
- Well, you were closer.
- Yeah. And now we smell like garbage.
You get a reading
on those tremors?
It was a mild subduction
under the African plate.
Do we have a visual? How
are we handling it?
Nat, it's an earthquake
under the ocean.
We handle it by not handling it.
Carol, are we seeing
you here next month?
- Not likely.
- What, you gonna get another haircut?
Listen, fur-face. I'm
covering a lot of territory.
The things that are
happening on Earth are
happening everywhere, on
thousands of planets.
That's a good point.
That's a good point.
So you might not see
me for a long time.
All right. Uh, well...
This channel is always active.
So, anything goes sideways...
Anyone's making trouble
where they shouldn't...
- Comes through me.
- Okay.
All right.
Good luck.
- Where are you?
- Mexico.
The federales found a
room full of bodies.
Looks like a bunch of cartel guys. Never
even had the chance to get their guns off.
- It's probably a rival gang...
- Except it isn't.
It's definitely Barton.
What he's done here, what he's
been doing for the last few years,
I mean, the scene
that he left...
I gotta tell you, there's a part of
me that doesn't even wanna find him.
Will you find out where
he's going next?
Nat...
Please.
Okay.
You know I'd offer to clip your dinner
but you seem pretty miserable already.
You here to do your laundry?
And to see a friend.
Clearly, your friend is fine.
You know I saw a pod of whales
when I was coming up the bridge.
- In the Hudson?
- There's fewer ships, cleaner water.
You know, if you're about to tell
me to look on the bright side...
Um...
I'm about to hit you in the head
with a peanut butter sandwich.
Sorry. Force of habit.
You know I keep telling everybody
they should move on and... grow.
Some do.
But not us.
- If I move on, who does this?
- Maybe it doesn't need to be done.
I used to have nothing.
And then I got this.
This job.
This family.
And I was... I was
better because of it.
And even though...
they're gone...
Now, I'm still
trying to be better.
I think we both
need to get a life.
You first.
Oh... Hi. Hi!
Is anyone home?
This is Scott Lang.
We met a few years ago, at the airport?
In Germany?
I got really big and
I had my mask on.
- You wouldn't recognize me.
- Is this an old message?
Ant-Man? Ant-Man, I
know you know that.
It's the front gate.
I need to talk to you guys.
Scott.
- Are you okay?
- Yeah.
Have either of you guys ever
studied quantum physics?
Only in mid-conversation.
Alright. So...
Five years ago, right before...
Thanos,
I was in a place called
the quantum realm.
The quantum realm is like its
own microscopic universe.
To get in there, you have to be
incredibly small. Hope, she's my...
She... she was my...
She was supposed to pull me out.
And then Thanos happened, and
- I got stuck in there.
- Sorry. That must've been a long 5 years.
Yeah, but that's just it.
It wasn't.
For me it was five hours.
See, the rules of the quantum realm
aren't like they are up here.
Everything is unpredictable. Is that
anybody's sandwich? I'm starving.
Scott.
What are you talking about?
So...
What I'm saying is...
Time works differently
in the quantum realm.
The only problem is right now, we
don't have a way to navigate it.
But what if we did?
I can't stop thinking about it. What
if we could somehow control the chaos,
and we could navigate it? What if
there was a way that we can enter
the quantum realm at a certain
point in time but then
exit the quantum realm at
another point in time? Like...
Like before Thanos.
Wait, are you talking
about a time machine?
No. No, of course not.
No, not a time machine.
It's more like a...
Yeah, a time machine. I know it's crazy.
It's crazy.
But I can't stop thinking about it.
There's gotta be...
Some wa... It's crazy.
I get e-mails from a raccoon. So,
nothing sounds crazy anymore.
So who do we talk to about this?
Chow-time!
Morgoona.
Morgan H. Stark.
Want some lunch?
- Define lunch or be disintegrated.
- Okay.
You should not be
wearing that, okay?
That is part of a special anniversary
gift I'm making for Mom.
There you go. Are you
thinking about lunch?
Want a handful of crickets?
- No.
- That's what you want.
- How did you find this?
- Garage.
Really?
- Were you looking for it?
- No.
I found it, though.
You like going to the garage, huh?
So does Daddy.
It's fine actually. Mom never
wears anything I wear.
Now, we know what
it sounds like...
Tony after everything you've seen,
is anything really impossible...
Quantum fluctuation messes
with the Planck scale,
which then triggers the Deutsch
proposition. Can we agree on that?
Thank you.
In Layman's terms, it means
you're not coming home.
- I did.
- No.
You accidentally survived. It's a---
It's a billion-to-one
cosmic fluke.
And now you wanna pull a...
What do you call it?
- A time heist?
- Yeah. Time heist.
Of course. Why didn't we
think of this before?
Oh! Because it's laughable?
Because it's a pipedream?
The stones are in the past. We
can go back and we can get them.
We can snap our own fingers.
We can bring everybody back.
Or screw it up worse than
he already has, right?
I don't believe we would.
Gotta say this. Sometimes, I
miss that giddy optimism.
However, high hopes won't
help if there's no logical,
tangible, way for me to safely
execute said time heist.
I believe the most likely outcome
will be our collective demise.
Not if we strictly follow
the rules of time travel.
That means no talking to our past selves,
no betting on sporting events...
I'm gonna stop you
right there, Scott.
Are you seriously telling
me that your plan to
save the universe is based
on Back to the Future?
- No.
- Good. You had me worried there.
'Cause that'd be horseshit. That's
not how quantum physics works.
Tony...
We have to take a stand.
We did stand. And
yet, here we are.
I know you got a lot on the line.
You got a wife, a daughter.
But I lost someone very important to me.
A lot of people did.
And now, now, we have a chance to bring
her back. To bring everyone back.
And you're telling me
that you won't even...
That's right, Scott.
I won't. Leave it.
Got a kid.
Mommy told me to
come and save you.
Good job. I'm saved.
I wish you'd come here to
ask me something else.
Anything else. Honestly, I
missed you guys, it was...
- Oh, and table's set for six.
- Tony, I get it.
And I'm happy for you.
I really am.
But this is a second chance.
I got my second chance
right here, Cap.
I can't roll the dice again.
If you don't talk shop,
you can stay for lunch.
- He's scared.
- He's not wrong.
Yeah, but I mean,
what are we gonna do?
We need him. What,
are we gonna stop?
No. I wanna do it right.
We're gonna need a
really big brain.
Bigger than his?
Come on. I feel like I'm the only
one eating. Try some of that.
Have some eggs.
I'm so confused.
- These are confusing times.
- Right. No, no...
- That's not what I meant. I...
- No, I get it.
I'm kidding! I know. It's crazy.
- I'm wearing shirts now.
- Yeah! How? Why?
Five years ago we
got our asses beat.
Except it was worse for me.
Because I lost twice.
First, Hulk lost. Then Banner lost.
Then, we all lost.
- No one blamed you, Bruce.
- I did.
For years I've been
treating the Hulk like he's
some kind of disease,
something to get rid of.
But then I started looking
at him as the cure.
Eighteen months in a gamma lab. I put
the brains and the brawn together.
And now look at me.
Best of both worlds.
- Excuse me, Mr. Hulk?
- Yes?
- Can we get a photo?
- 100%, little person.
Come on, step on up. You mind?
Oh.
- Say "green."
- Green.
Greeeen.
- Did you get that?
- That's good.
Don't you wanna grab one with me?
I'm Ant-Man.
They're Hulk fans.
They don't know Ant-Man.
- Nobody does.
- Wait, no, no, he wants to...
You want to take a
picture with him, right?
He's even saying no he doesn't.
I get it.
I don't want it either. I don't
want a picture with them.
- He's gonna feel bad.
- Sorry.
- They said they'd do it.
- I don't want it anymore.
- You'd feel bad...
- Take the goddamn phone.
Thank you, Mr. Hulk.
No, it's great, kids.
Thank you very much.
- Hulk out!
- Bruce.
- Dab.
- Bruce.
Listen to your Mom.
She knows better.
- About we were saying...
- Right.
The whole time travel do-over?
Guys, it's outside of
my area of expertise.
Well, you pulled this off.
I remember a time when that
seemed pretty impossible, too.
Look at a mod inspiration,
let me see what checks out.
So, recommend one last sim before
we pack it in for the night.
This time, in the shape of a
mobius strip, inverted. Please?
Processing...
Give me that eigenvalue. That, particle
factoring, and spectral decomp.
- Gotta take a second.
- Just a moment.
And don't worry if it doesn't pan out.
I'm just kinda...
Model rendered.
Shit!
Shit!
What are you doing
up, Little Miss?
- Shit.
- No. We don't say that.
Only Mommy says that word. She
coined it, it belongs to her.
Why you up?
'Cause I got some important shit
going on here. What do you think?
No, I got something on my mind.
I got something on my mind.
- Was it Juice Pops?
- Sure was.
That's extortion.
Great minds think alike. Juice
Pops, exactly was on...
my mind.
You done? Yeah? Now you are.
- That face, goes there.
- Tell me a story.
A story.
Once upon a time, a little
girl went to bed. The end.
That ain't the whole story.
Come on, that's your
favorite story.
I love you tons.
I love you 3,000.
Wow.
3,000. That's crazy.
Go to bed. Or I'll
sell all your toys.
Night-night.
Not that it's a competition,
but she loves me 3,000.
You were somewhere in
the low 6 to 900 range.
- What you reading?
- Just a book on composting.
What's new with composting?
- Just ....
- I figured it out...
by the way.
You know, just so we're talking
about the same thing...
Time travel.
What?
Wow.
That's...
Amazing, and.... terrifying.
That's right.
- I got really lucky.
- Yeah. I know.
- A lot of people didn't.
- No, I can't help everybody.
- It sorta seems like you can.
- Not if I stop.
I can put a pin in it
right now, and stop.
Tony...
trying to get you to stop has been one
of the few failures of my entire life.
I sometimes feel I should put it in a locked
box and drop it at the bottom of a lake...
...go to bed.
But would you be able to rest?
Okay, here we go. Time
travel test number one.
Scott, fire up the, uhh...
The van thing.
Breakers are set. Emergency
generators are on standby.
Good. 'Cause if we blow the grid, I don't
wanna lose Tiny here in the 1950's.
- Excuse me?
- He's kidding.
You can't say things like that.
Just... it was, just a bad joke.
- You were kidding, right?
- I have no idea.
We're talking about time travel here.
Either it's all a joke, or none of it is.
We're good! Get your helmet on.
Scott, I'm gonna send you
back a week, but you'll walk
around for an hour, then bring
you back in 10 seconds.
- Makes sense?
- Perfectly not confusing.
Good luck, Scott. You got this.
You're right. I do,
Captain America.
On the count of three.
3.. 2.. 1..
Guys? This doesn't feel right.
- What's going on? Hold on.
- Who is that?
- Is that Scott?
- Yes, it's Scott!
Ooh! My back!
- Can you bring him back?
- I'm working on it!
A baby.
- It's Scott.
- As a baby!
Bring Scott back.
When I say kill the
power, kill the power.
And... kill it!
Somebody peed my pants.
I don't know if it was
"baby" me or "old" me.
Or, just "me" me.
Time travel!
What?
I see this as an absolute win.
Why the long face?
Let me guess. He
turned into a baby.
Among other things, yeah.
What are you doing here?
That's the EPR paradox.
Instead of pushing Lang through time, you
might've wound up pushing time through Lang.
It's tricky. Dangerous. Somebody
coulda cautioned you against it.
- You did.
- Oh, did I?
Thank God, I'm here.
Regardless, I fixed it.
A fully functioning
time-space GPS.
I just want peace.
Turns out, resentment is
corrosive, and I hate it.
Me, too.
We got a shot at getting
these stones, but I
gotta tell you my
priority is to bring back
what we lost? I hope, yes.
Keep what I found? I
have to, at all costs.
And, maybe not die
trying will be nice.
Sounds like a deal.
- Tony, I don't know...
- Why? He made it for you.
Plus, honestly I have to get it out the
garage before Morgan takes it sledding.
Thank you, Tony.
Will you keep that a little quietly?
Didn't bring one for the whole team.
- We are getting, the whole team, yeah?
- We're working on that right now.
- Hey, humie! Where's big green?
- Kitchen. I think.
- That's awesome.
- Rodent, careful on re-entry.
There's an idiot on
the landing zone.
Oh, God!
What's up, regular-sized man?
Kind of a step down from a golden palace
for an Avenger highness or whatnot.
Hey, have a little compassion, pal.
First, they've lost Asgard,
then half the people. They're probably
just happy they have a home.
You shouldn't have come!
Valkyrie!
Great to see you, Angry Girl.
I think I liked you better
either of the other ways.
- This is Rocket.
- How you doin'?
- He won't see you.
- That bad, huh?
We only see him once a month,
when he comes in for...
...supplies.
- It's that bad.
- Yeah.
What the...
Woo! Something died in here.
Hello? Thor?
Are you here about the cable?
The Cinemax ran out two weeks ago,
and, sports were all kind of fuzzy...
Boys! Oh, my God!
My God! How have you been?
Come here, you little rascal!
No, I'm good! I'm good.
That's not necessary!
Hulk, you know my friends,
Miek, Korg, right?
- Hey, boys!
- Hey, guys. Long time no see.
Beer's on the bucket. Feel
free to log on to the wi-fi.
No password, obviously.
Thor, he's back. That kid on the TV
who's called me a dickhead again.
- Noobmaster.
- Yeah, Noobmaster69.
Noobmaster. Hey, it's Thor again.
You know, the God of Thunder?
Listen, buddy. If you don't log off
this game immediately I'm gonna fly
home to your house, come down to
that basement you're hiding in,
rip off your arms then
shove them up your butt!
Oh, that's right. Yes, go cry to
your father, you little weasel!
Thank you, Thor.
Let me know if he
bothers you again, okay?
Thank you very much. I will.
So you guys want a drink?
What are you drinking?
We have beer, tequila,
all sorts of things.
Buddy, you all right?
Yes, I'm fine! Why,
don't I look all right?
You look like melted ice cream.
So, what's up?
We need your help. There might be
a chance we could fix everything.
What, like the cable? 'Cause that's
been driving me bananas for weeks.
Like Thanos.
Don't say that name.
Um, yeah. We don't actually
say that name in here.
Please take your hand off me.
Now, I know that...
guy might scare you.
Why would I be? Why would, why
would I be scared of that guy?
I'm the one who killed
that guy, remember?
Anyone else here
killed that guy?
Nope. Didn't think so.
Korg, why don't you, tell everybody
who chopped Thanos' big head off.
Umm... Stormbreaker?
Now, who's swinging
Stormbreaker?
I get it. You're in a rough spot, okay?
I've been there myself.
You wanna know who
helped me out of it?
I don't know. Is it... Natasha?
It was you.
You helped me.
Why don't you ask the,
Asgardians down there,
how much my help was worth.
The ones that are left, anyway.
I think we can bring them back.
Stop. Just, stop...
I know you think I'm down here wallowing in
my own self-pity, waiting to be rescued and
and saved. But I'm fine, okay?
We're fine, aren't we?
Nah, all good here, mate!
So, whatever it is that
you're offering, we're
not into it, don't care,
couldn't care less.
Goodbye.
We need you, pal.
There's beer on the ship.
What kind?
It's him! He's after Akihiko!
We never did anything to you!
You're done hurting people.
You're crazy!
Wait! Help me!
What I want...
You can't give me.
You shouldn't be here.
Neither should you.
I've got a job to do.
Is that what you're
calling this?
Killing all these people isn't
gonna bring your family back.
We found something.
A chance, maybe...
Don't.
Don't what?
Don't give me hope.
I'm sorry I couldn't
give it to you sooner.
Drifting left. On the
side there, Lebowski.
- Ratchet, how's it going?
- It's Rocket.
Take it easy. You're only
a genius on Earth, pal.
Yup.
Time travel suit? Not bad.
Hey, hey, hey. Easy, easy!
- I'm being very careful.
- No, you're being very Hulky.
- I'm being careful.
- These are Pym particles, all right?
And ever since Hank Pym got snapped
out of existence, this is it.
This is what we have. We're
not making any more.
- Scott, calm down.
- Sorry.
We've got enough for
one round trip, each.
That's it. No do-overs.
Plus, two test runs.
One test run.
All right. I'm not
ready for this.
I'm game.
I'll do it.
Clint, now you're gonna feel
a little discombobulated
from the chronoshift.
Don't worry about it.
Wait a second, let me
ask you something.
If we can do this, you know, go
back in time, why don't we just
find baby Thanos, you know?
And...
- First of all, that's horrible.
- It's Thanos.
And secondly, time doesn't work that way.
Changing the past doesn't change the future.
Look, we go back, we get the
stones before Thanos gets them...
Thanos doesn't have the stones.
Problem solved.
- Bingo.
- That's not how it works.
- Well, that's what I heard.
- What? By who? Who told you that?
Star Trek, Terminator,
TimeCop, Time After Time,
- Quantum Leap.
- A Wrinkle in Time,
- Somewhere in Time,
- Hot Tub Time Machine.
Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. Basically,
any movie that deals with time travel.
Die Hard? No, it's not...
This is known.
I don't know why everyone believes
that, but that isn't true.
Think about it: If you travel to the
past, that past becomes your future.
And your former present
becomes the past.
Which can't now be changed
by your new future...
Exactly.
So Back to the Future's
a bunch of bullshit?
All right, Clint. We're going in 3..
2.. 1...
Cooper?
- Where are my headphones?
- Lila?
Lila! No!
Dad?
Dad?
Hey, hey. Look at me. You okay?
Yeah.
It worked.
It worked.
Okay, so the "how" works.
Now we gotta figure out the
"when," and the "where."
Almost everyone in this
room has had an encounter
with at least one of the
six Infinity Stones.
Well, I'd subtitute the
word 'encounter' for 'damn
near been killed by one of
the six Infinity Stones.'
I haven't. I don't even know what
the hell you're all talking about.
Regardless, we only have enough Pym
Particles for one round trip each,
and these stones have been in a lot of
different places throughout history.
Our history. So, not a lot of
convenient spots to just drop in.
- Which means we have to pick our targets.
- Correct.
So. Let's start
with the Aether.
Thor, what do you know?
Is he asleep?
Where to start? Umm...
The Aether, first,
is not a stone.
Someone's called it a stone before.
Ahem...
It's more of a... an angry
sludge, sort of thing. So...
Someone's gonna need to amend
that, and stop saying that.
Here's an interesting
story, though.
About the Aether. My
grandafther, many years
ago, had to hide the stone
from the Dark Elves.
Scary beings. So Jane...
Oh, there she is. That's Jane...
She's... an old flame of mine.
She... she stuck her hand
inside a rock this one time...
and then the Aether stuck
itself inside her.
And, she became very, very sick.
So I had to take her to
Asgard, which is where I'm from.
And we had to try and fix her.
We were dating at the time, you see. I
got to introduce her to my Mother...
who's dead, and umm....
Oh, you know. Jane and I aren't
even dating anymore, so...
These things happen though, you know.
Nothing lasts forever.
- The only thing that...
- Why don't you come sit down.
I'm not done yet. The only thing that
is permanent in life, is impermanence.
Awesome.
Eggs? Breakfast?
No. I'd like a Bloody Mary.
Quill said he stole the
Power Stone from Morag.
- Is that a person?
- Morag's a planet.
Quill was a person.
Like a planet? Like
in outer space?
Oh, look. It's like a little
puppy, all happy and everything.
Do you wanna go to space? You
wanna go to space, puppy?
I'll take you to space.
- Thanos found the Soul Stone on Vormir.
- What is Vormir?
A dominion of death, at the very
center of Celestial existence.
It's where... Thanos
murdered my sister.
Noted.
- That Time Stone guy...
- Doctor Strange.
Yeah, what kind
of doctor was he?
- Neurostuff meets rabbit from a hat.
- Nice place in the village, though.
- Yeah. Sullivan Street.
- Hmm... Bleecker.
Wait, he lived in New York?
- No. He lived in Toronto.
- Yeah, not Bleecker. It's Sullivan.
Guys, if you pick the right year,
there are three stones in New York.
Shut the front door!
All right. We have a plan.
Six stones, three
teams, one shot.
Five years ago, we lost.
All of us.
We lost friends...
We lost family...
We lost a part of ourselves.
Today, we have a chance
to take it all back.
You know your teams, you
know your missions.
Get the stones, get them back.
One round trip each. No mistakes.
No do-overs.
Most of us are going
somewhere we know.
But it doesn't mean we
should know what to expect.
Be careful. Look out
for each other.
This is the fight of our lives.
And we're gonna win.
Whatever it takes.
Good luck.
- He's pretty good at that.
- Right?
All right. You heard the man.
Stroke those keys, jelly green.
Tractors engaged.
You promise to bring that
back in one piece, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah. Okay.
- I'll do my best.
- As promises go, that was pretty lame.
See you in a minute.
All right, we all have our assignments.
Two stones uptown, one stone, down.
Stay low. Keep an
eye on the clock.
Feel free to smash if
things don't go your way.
I think it's gratuitous,
but whatever.
I'd be careful going that way.
We just had the floors waxed.
Ma'am, I'm looking
for Doctor Strange.
You're about... five
years too early.
Stephen Strange is currently performing
surgery about twenty blocks that way.
What do you want from him?
That, actually.
Ah.
- I'm afraid not.
- Sorry, but I wasn't asking.
- You don't wanna do this.
- You're right. I don't.
But I need that stone, and
I don't have time to...
Let's start over, shall we?
That's Jane.
All right.
Here's the deal, Tubby:
You're gonna charm her and I'm
gonna poke her with this thing
and extract the Reality Stone
and get gone, lickety-split.
I'll be right back, okay? There's a
wine cellar, that's just down there.
My father used to fish
with a barrel of ale.
- I'll see if the cellar has a couple of...
- Hey! Aren't you drunk enough already?
Who's the fancy broad?
It's my Mother.
She dies today.
Oh. That's today?
I can't do this.
I can't do this.
I shouldn't be here. I shouldn't have come.
This was a bad idea.
- Come here.
- No, no, no. I think I'm having...
- I'm having a panic attack.
- Come here. Right here.
You think you're the only one who lost
people? What do you think we're doing here?
I lost the only
family I ever had.
Quill, Groot, Drax, the chick
with the antenna, all gone.
Now, I get you miss your Mom.
But she's gone. Really gone.
And there are plenty of people
who are only kinda gone.
But you can help them.
So is it too much to ask that you
brush the crumbs outta your beard,
make schmoopy talk to Pretty
Pants, and when she's not looking,
suck out the Infinity Stone and
help me get my family back?
Okay.
- Are you crying?
- No...
Yes!
Get it together!
You can do this.
You can do this.
All right?
- Yes, I can.
- Good.
I can do this.
I can't do this.
Alright, Heartbreaker. She's alone.
This is our shot.
Thor?
Thor!
Alright. Bring it down low.
Right on that line. That's it.
Down, down.
Hey, can we hurry it up?
Guys, chop-chop. Come on.
We're on the clock.
All that, is really helpful.
- Take care, okay?
- Yeah.
Take that stone and come back.
No messing around.
- Hey.
- You got this.
- Let's get it done.
- Yes, sir.
See you back.
You guys watch each other's six.
Yeah.
The coordinates for
Vormir are laid in.
All they have to do
is not fall out.
We're a long way from Budapest.
Okay, so, uhh...
We just wait around for this
Quill guy to show up and
then he leads us to the
Power Stone, is that it?
Let's take cover.
We're not the only ones in
2014 looking for the stones.
Wait a minute, what are
you talking about right
now? Who else is looking
for these stones?
My father, my sister...
- and me.
- And you?
Where are you right now?
- You're welcome.
- I didn't ask for your help.
And yet, you always need it.
Get up.
- Father wants us back on the ship.
- Why?
He's found an Infinity Stone.
- Where?
- On a planet called Morag.
Father's plan is
finally in motion.
- One stone isn't six, Nebula.
- It's a start.
If he gets all of them...
Ronan's located the Power Stone.
I'm dispatching you to his ship.
- He won't like that.
- His alternative is death, then.
Ronan's obsession
clouds his judgement.
We will not fail you, Father.
No, you won't.
I swear...
I will make you proud.
We just, wait around for
this Quill guy to show up,
and then he leads us to the
Power Stone, is that it?
Let's take cover.
We're not the only ones in
2014 looking for the stones.
- Who was that?
- I don't know...
My head is splitting...
I don't know...
Her synaptic drive was
probably damaged in battle.
Bring her to my ship.
Got to hustle, Cap. Things look like
they're just about wrapped up here.
Got it. I'm approaching
the elevator now.
If it's all the same to you...
I'll have that drink now.
All right. Good one. No standing around,
I'm closing up this door for later.
By the way, feel
free to clean up.
Ugh, Mr. Rogers. I almost
forgot that that suit
- did nothing for your ass.
- No one asked you to look.
I think you look great, Cap.
As far as I'm concerned,
that's America's ass.
- Uhh, magic wand?
- STRIKE team's coming to secure it.
We can take that
off your hands.
By all means.
- Careful with that thing!
- Unless you want your mind erased.
- Not in a fun way.
- We promise to be careful.
- Who are these guys?
- They are SHIELD...
Well, actually Hydra. But,
we didn't know that yet.
Seriously, you didn't? I mean...
they look like bad guys.
You're small, but
you're talking loud.
On my way down to
coordinate search and rescue.
On my way down to
coordinate search and rescue!
I mean, honestly! How do
you think you'll be...
Shut up.
All right, you're up, little buddy.
There's our stone.
Alright. Flick me.
- Whoa! Whoa, whoa.
- Hey! Buddy.
What do you think? Maximum
occupancy has been reached.
- Take the stairs!
- Yeah. Stop. Stop!
Take the stairs.
Take the stairs!
All right, Cap. I got our scepter in the
elevator just passing the 80th floor.
On it.
- Head to the lobby.
- Alright. I'll see you there.
Evidence secure. We're
en route to Dr. List.
No. No hitches at all, Mr.
Secretary.
Captain. I thought you were
coordinating search and rescue?
Change of plans.
Hey, Cap.
Rumlow.
I just got a call from the Secretary. I'm
gonna be running point on the scepter.
Sir? I don't understand.
We got word there may be
an attempt to steal it.
Sorry, Cap.
I can't give you the scepter.
- I'm gonna have to call the Director.
- That's okay. Trust me.
Hail Hydra.
So many stairs!
Thumbelina, do you copy?
I've got eyes on the prize.
- It is go-time.
- Bombs away.
Is, is that Axe body spray?
Yeah, I had a can just
for emergencies. Relax.
- Can we focus, please?
- I'm going inside you. Now.
May I ask you
where you're going?
To lunch and then Asgard.
I'm sorry, you are?
Alexander Pierce. He's the man, one
of the folks behind Nick Fury.
My friends call me Mr. Secretary.
I'm gonna have to ask you to
turn that prisoner over to me.
- Loki will be answering to Odin himself.
- Oh, he's gonna answer to us.
Odin can have what's left. And
I'm gonna need that case.
That's been SHIELD property
for over 70 years.
Hand over the case, Stark.
All right, move it, Stuart Little. Things
are getting dicey up here. Let's go.
I'm not gonna argue who's got the
higher authority here, all right?
You promise me you won't die?
You're only giving me a
mild cardiac dysrythmia.
That doesn't sound mild.
I need the case.
I know you got a lotta pull.
I'm just saying...
Okay. Then give me the case.
Do it, Lang!
- Get your hands off!
- Window's closing. Pull my pin!
Here goes!
- Stark?
- Stark!
Look, he's convulsing.
Give him air!
- Medic!
- Medic!
You got some help!
Stark, you--- your
chest machine?
Breathe! Breathe!
Good job. Meet me in the alley.
I'm gonna grab a quick slice.
No stairs!
You'll be fine, Stark.
Stay with us!
I'll try something, okay? I have
no idea if it's gonna work.
Yes!
That worked a treat.
That was so crazy!
I had no idea if
that was gonna work.
- The case...
- The case. It's, uhh...
Where's the case? Where's Loki?
Loki!
- That wasn't supposed to happen, was it?
- Oh, we blew it.
Loki!?
Tony, what's going on?
Tell me you found that cube.
Oh, you gotta be shitting me.
I have eyes on Loki. 14th floor.
I'm not Loki.
And I don't wanna hurt you.
I can do this all day.
Yeah, I know. I know.
Where did you get this?
Bucky... is... alive!
What?
That is America's ass.
- Please, please!
- I'm sorry. I can't help you, Bruce.
If I give up the Time Stone to help
your reality, I'm dooming my own.
With all due respect, I'm not sure
the science really supports that.
The Infinity Stones create what you
experience as the flow of time.
Remove one of the stones,
and that flow splits.
Now this may benefit your reality.
But my new one, not so much.
In this new branched reality, without our
chief weapon against the forces of darkness,
our world will be overrun.
Millions will suffer.
So, tell me, doctor, can your
science prevent all that?
No. But we can erase it.
Because once we're done with the stones, we
can return each one into its own timeline
at the moment it was taken.
So, chronologically...
In that reality....
it never left.
Yes, but you're leaving out
the most important part.
In order to return the
stones, you have to survive.
We will. I will. I promise.
I can't risk this
reality on a promise.
It's the duty, of the Sorcerer
Supreme to protect the Time Stone.
Then why the hell did
Strange give it away?
- What did you say?
- Strange. He gave it away.
He gave it to Thanos.
- Willingly?
- Yes.
- Why?
- I have no idea. Maybe he made a mistake.
Or I did.
Strange was meant to
be the best of us.
So he must've done
it for a reason.
I fear you might be right.
Thank you.
I'm counting on you, Bruce.
We all are.
Run diagnostics.
Show me her memory file.
Sire, the file appears entangled.
It was a memory, but not hers.
There's another consciousness
sharing her network.
Another Nebula.
Impossible.
This duplicate carries a time stamp...
from nine years in the future.
Where is this other Nebula?
In our solar system.
On Morag.
- Can you access her?
- Yes. The two are linked.
Search the duplicate's
memories, for Infinity Stones.
And these stones have been in a lot of
different places throughout history.
Our history. So, not a lot of
convenient spots to just drop in.
- Which means we have to pick our targets.
- Correct.
Freeze image.
Terrans.
Avengers.
Unruly wretches. What's
that reflection?
Amplify this, Maw.
I don't understand.
- Two Nebulas.
- No. The same Nebula.
From two different times.
Set course for Morag. Scan
the duplicate's memories.
I want to see everything.
My ladies, I'll see you after.
Go on.
- What are you doing?
- Ahh!
You're better off leaving the
sneaking to your brother.
Yeah, I was simply just
going for a walk, and uh...
What are you wearing?
I always wear this. This
is one of my favorites.
What's wrong with your eye?
Oh, my eye. That's... you
remember the Battle of Haroquin?
When I got hit in the
face with a broadsword?
You're not the Thor I
know at all, are you?
Yes, I am.
The future hasn't been
kind to you, has it?
I didn't say I'm
from the future.
I was raised by witches, boy.
I see with more than
eyes, and you know that.
I am totally, totally
from the future!
Yes, you are.
- I really need to talk to you.
- We can talk.
His head was over there...
His body over there...
What was the point.
I was too late.
I was just standing there.
- Some idiot with an ax.
- You're no idiot.
You're here aren't you? Seeking counsel
from the wisest person in Asgard.
- I guess, yeah.
- Idiot? No.
- A failure? Absolutely.
- That's a little bit harsh.
You do know what
that makes you?
Just like everyone else.
I'm not supposed to be
like everyone else, am I?
Everyone fails at who they
are supposed to be, Thor.
The measure of a
person, of a hero
is how well they succeed
at being who they are.
I really missed you, Mum.
Thor! I got it!
Get that rabbit!
- Ma, I have to tell you something.
- No, son. You don't.
You're here to repair
your future, not mine.
- But this is about your future.
- It's none of my business.
Hey.
You must be Mom.
I got the thing. Come
on, we got to move.
- I wish we had more time.
- This was a gift.
And you're going to be the
man you're meant to be.
- I love you, Mom.
- I love you.
And eat a salad.
- Come on. We gotta go.
- Goodbye.
- Three... two...
- No, wait!
Wh- what am I looking at?
Oh, sometimes it takes a second.
I'm still worthy.
Oh, boy.
Goodbye, Mom.
So he's an idiot?
What's that?
The tool of a thief.
Whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa...
This is the part where spikes come out,
with skeletons on the end and everything...
What are you talking about?
When you break into a place called
the temple of the Power Stone,
There's gonna be a bunch of booby
traps--- Okay. All right. Go ahead.
I wasn't always like this.
Me either.
But we work with
what we got, right?
Sync up.
Three.. two.. one...
You murdered trillions!
You should be grateful.
- Where are the stones?
- Gone.
- Reduced to atoms.
- You used them two days ago.
I used the stones to destroy the stones.
It nearly killed me.
But the work is done.
It always will be.
I am inevitable.
- What did you do to them?
- Nothing. Yet.
They're not trying to stop something
I'm going to do in our time.
They're trying to undo something
I've already done in theirs.
The stones...
I found them all.
I won.
Tipped the cosmic
scales to balance.
This is your future.
It's my destiny.
My father is many things. A
liar is not one of them.
Thank you, Daughter.
Perhaps I treated
you too harshly...
And that, is destiny fulfilled.
Sire, your Daughter...
No...
...is a traitor.
That's not me. It's not. I could never...
I would never betray you. Never.
I know.
And you'll have the
chance to prove it.
No...
He knows!
Barton? Barton, come in.
Romanoff? Come in, we have a problem.
Come on!
Come in, we have a prob....
Thanos knows.
Thanos...
Cap...
Sorry, buddy.
We got a problem.
Huh. Yeah, we do.
- Well, what are we gonna do now?
- You know what, give me a break, Steve.
I just got hit in the
head with a Hulk.
You said that we had one shot.
This, this was our shot.
We shot it. It's shot. Six stones or nothing.
Six stones or nothing.
You're repeating yourself, you know that?
You're repeating yourself.
You're repeating yourself.
You're repeating yourself.
- No!
- Come on.
You never wanted a time heist, you
went on board with the time heist...
- I dropped the ball.
- You ruined the time heist.
- Is that what I did?
- Yeah!
Are there any other options
with the Tesseract?
No, no, no. There's
no other options.
There's no do-overs. We're
not going anywhere else.
We have one particle left. Each.
That's it, alright? We use that...
Bye, bye. You're not going home.
Yeah, well if we don't try...
then no one else is
going home, either.
I got it.
There's another way. To retake the
Tesseract and acquire new particles.
We'll stroll down memory lane.
Military installation, Garden State.
Why were they both there?
They were there at a...I've
a vaguely exact idea.
How vague?
What are you talking about?
Where are we going?
- I know for a fact they were there...
- Who's they?
- What are we doing?
- And I know how I know.
Guys, what's up? What is it?
Well, it looks like
we're improvising.
- Right.
- What are we improvising?
Scott, get this back
to the compound.
Suit up.
What's in New Jersey?
- 0-4, 0-4...
- Uhh, 0-7.
- 0-7.
- Excuse me...
1-9-7-0.
- Are you sure?
- Cap. Captain. Steve, sorry.
America. Rogers. Look,
if you do this,
and this doesn't work,
you're not coming back.
Thanks for the pep
talk, pissant.
You trust me?
I do.
Your call.
Here we go.
Hey, man!
Make love, not war!
Clearly, you weren't
actually born here, right?
The idea of me was.
Right. Well, imagine
you're SHIELD, running a
quasi-fascistic
intelligence organization.
Where do you hide it?
In plain sight.
Good luck on your
mission, Captain.
Good luck on your
project, doctor.
You're new here?
Not exactly.
Gotcha.
Back in the game.
Arnim, you in there?
Arnim?
Hey!
The door's this way, pal.
Oh, yeah.
I'm looking for Dr. Zola.
Have you seen him?
Yeah, no, Dr. Zol... No,
I haven't seen a soul.
Pardon me.
Do I know you?
No, sir. I'm, a...
visitor from MIT.
Huh. MIT.
Got a name?
Howard.
Well that'll be
easy to remember.
Howard...
...Potts.
Well, I'm Howard Stark.
Hi.
Shit. Now, don't pull it.
Yeah...
You look a little green around
the gills there, Potts.
I'm fine. Just, long hours.
Wanna get some air?
- Hello, Potts.
- Yeah. That would be swell.
- That way.
- Okay.
Need your briefcase?
You're not one of
those, are ya, Potts?
- Hello.
- Dr. Pym?
That would be the number
that you called. Yes.
This is Capt. Stevens
from shipping.
- We have a package for you.
- Bring it up.
Well, that's the thing, sir.
We can't.
I'm confused. I thought
that was your job.
Well, it's just... Sir,
the box is glowing and,
to be honest, some of our mail
guys aren't feeling that great.
They didn't know
better, did they?
Yeah, they did. You
better get down here.
Excuse me. Out of the way!
So, flowers and sauerkraut. You
got a big date tonight?
My wife's expecting.
And, uh... Too much
time in the office.
- Congratulations.
- Thanks. Hold this, will you?
Yeah, sure.
- How far along is she?
- I don't know... uh...
She's at the point where she can't
stand the sound of my chewing.
I guess I'll be eating
dinner in the pantry again.
I have a little girl.
A girl would be nice. Less of a chance
she'd turn out exactly like me.
What'd be so awful about that?
Let's just say that the greater
good has rarely outweighed
my own self-interests.
- And you've never seen these 2 men before?
- No, I've got an eye for this.
- The 2 of them looked fishy.
- Can you describe them?
- Well, one of them had a hippie beard.
- Hippie? Like Bee Gees or Mungo Jerry?
Definitely Mungo Jerry.
Yeah, this is Chesler. I
need every available MPs
on sub-level 6. We have
a potential breach.
So, where are you
at with names?
Well, if it's a boy,
my wife likes Almanzo.
Might wanna let that stew on.
You got time.
Let me ask you a question.
When your kid was born...
- were you nervous?
- Wildly. Yeah.
Did you feel qualified?
Like you had any idea how to
successfully operate that thing?
I literally pieced it
together as I went along,
I thought about what
my Dad did, and...
My old man, he never met a problem
he couldn't solve with a belt.
I thought my Dad
was tough on me.
And now, looking back, I just
remember the good stuff, you know.
- He did drop the odd pearl.
- Yeah? Like what?
"No amount of money ever
bought a second of time."
Smart guy.
He did his best.
Let me tell you. That
kid's not even here yet
and, there's nothing I
wouldn't do for him.
Good to meet you, Potts.
Yeah, Howard...
Everything's gonna be all right.
Thank you for everything...
...you've done for
this country.
Jarvis.
Have we ever met that guy?
Seems very familiar.
Weird beard, though.
- You're weak.
- I'm you.
You can stop this.
You know you want to.
Did you see what
happens in the future?
Thanos finds the Soul Stone.
You wanna know
how he does that?
You wanna know, what
he does to you?
That's enough.
You disgust me.
But, that doesn't
mean you're useless.
How do I look?
Wow...
Under different circumstances,
this would be totally awesome.
I bet the raccoon didn't
have to climb a mountain.
Technically, he's not
a raccoon, you know.
Whatever. He eats garbage.
Welcome.
Natasha, daughter of Ivan.
Clint, son of Edith.
Who are you?
Consider me a guide.
To you, and to all who
seek the Soul Stone.
Okay. You tell us where it is.
Then we'll be on our way.
If only it were that easy.
What you seek lies
in front of you...
...as does what you fear.
The stone is down there.
For one of you.
For the other...
In order to take the stone, you
must lose that which you love.
An everlasting exchange.
A soul, for a soul.
How's it going?
Jesus...
Maybe he's making this shit up.
No. I don't think so.
Why, 'cause he knows
your Daddy's name?
I didn't.
Thanos left here with the stone
without his daughter.
It's not a coincidence.
Yeah.
Whatever it takes.
Whatever it takes.
If we don't get that stone,
billions of people stay dead.
Then I guess we both
know who it's gotta be.
I guess we do.
I'm starting to think, we've been
different people here, Natasha.
For the last five years I've been trying
to do one thing: Get to right here.
That's all it's been about.
Bringing everybody back.
- Oh, don't you get all decent on me now.
- What, you think I wanna do it?
I'm trying to save
your life, you idiot.
Yeah well, I don't want
you to, because I...
Natasha, you know
what I've done.
You know what I've become.
I don't judge people on
their worst mistakes.
Maybe you should.
You didn't.
You're a pain in my
ass, you know that?
Okay.
You win.
Tell my family I love them.
You tell them yourself.
Damn you!
Let me go.
No.
Please, no.
It's okay.
Please...
Did we get them all?
You telling me this'll
actually work?
Clint, where's Nat?
Do we know if she had family?
Yeah. Us.
What?
I just asked him a question...
Yeah, you're acting like she's dead.
Why are we acting like she's dead?
We have the stones, right?
As long as we have
the stones, Cap, we can bring
her back, isn't that right?
So stop this shit. We're the
Avengers, get it together.
We can't get her back.
- Wha- what?
- It can't be undone. It can't.
I'm sorry. No offense, but you're
a very earthly being. Okay?
We're talking about space magic.
And "can't" seems very () don't you think?
Look, I know that I'm way
outside my paygrade here.
But she still isn't
here, is she?
- Now that's my point.
- It can't be undone.
Or that's at least what the,
great floating guy had to say.
Maybe you wanna go talk to him?
Okay?
Go grab your hammer, and you
go fly and you talk to him.
It was supposed to be me.
She sacrificed her life for that
goddamned stone. She bet her life on it.
She's not coming back.
We have to make it worth it.
We have to.
We will.
Boom!
All right. The glove's ready.
Question is, who's gonna
snap their freaking fingers?
I'll do it.
It's okay.
- No, no, no, no. Stop. Stop.
- Hey, hey...
Thor, just wait.
We haven't decided who's
gonna put that on yet.
I'm sorry. What, were you just sitting
around waiting for the right opportunity?
We should at least discuss it.
Look, us sitting here staring at that
thing is not gonna bring everybody back.
I'm the strongest Avenger, okay? So
this responsibility falls upon me.
It's my duty. It's not that... It's...
stop it! Just let me.
Just let me do it. Just
let me do something good.
- Something great.
- Look...
It's not just the fact that
that glove is channeling
enough energy to light up a
continent, I'm telling you
you're in no condition.
What do you think is coursing
through my veins right now?
Cheez Whiz?
- Lightning.
- Yeah.
Lightning won't help you, pal.
It's gotta be me.
You saw what those stones did to Thanos.
It almost killed him.
None of you could survive.
How do we know you will?
I don't. But the
radiation's mostly gamma.
It's like...
I was meant for this.
Good to go, yeah?
Let's do it.
You remember everyone
Thanos snapped away five
years ago and just bringing
them back to now, today.
Don't change anything
from the last five years.
Got it.
Friday, do me a favor and
activate protocol 8.
Yes, boss.
Everybody comes home.
- Take it off. Take it off!
- No, wait. Bruce, are you okay?
Talk to me, Banner.
I'm okay. I'm okay.
Bruce!
Don't move him.
- Did it work?
- Worth a shot. It's over. It's okay.
Honey.
Honey.
Guys...
I think it worked!
I can't breathe. I can't breathe!
I can't breathe.
Canopy. Canopy. Canopy.
Rhodey, Rocket, get outta here!
Hurry up! Hurry up!
Come on!
Rhodey!
Mayday, mayday! Does anybody copy? We're
in the lower level, it's flooding!
- What?
- We're drowning! Does anybody copy? Mayday!
Wait! I'm here! I'm
here, can you hear me?
Cap?
Daughter.
Yes, Father.
So, this is the future.
Well done.
Thank you, Father. They
suspected nothing.
The arrogant never do.
Go.
Find the stones.
Bring them to me.
What will you do?
Wait.
Tell me something.
In the future, what
happens to you and me?
I tried to kill you.
Several times.
But eventually,
we become friends.
We become sisters.
Come on.
We can stop him.
Come on, buddy. Wake up.
That's my man.
You lose this again,
I'm keeping it.
What happened?
We messed with time.
It tends to mess back.
You'll see.
What's he been doing?
Absolutely nothing.
Where are the stones?
Lost somewhere under all this.
All I know is he
doesn't have them.
So we keep it that way.
- You know it's a trap, right?
- Yeah...
I don't much care.
Good.
Just as long as we're
all in agreement.
Let's kill him
properly this time.
You could not live
with your own failure.
Where did that bring you?
Back to me.
I thought by eliminating
half of life,
the other half would thrive.
But you've shown me,
that's impossible.
And as long as there are those
that remember what was,
there will always be those that
are unable to accept what can be.
They will resist.
Yep. We're all
kinds of stubborn.
I'm thankful.
Because now, I know
what I must do.
I will shred this universe
down to its last atom.
And then...
With the stones you've collected
for me, create a new one.
Teeming with life,
but knows not what it has lost
but only what it has been given.
A grateful universe.
Born out of blood.
They'll never know it.
Because you won't be
alive to tell them.
See you on the other side, man.
Hang on! I'm coming!
Oh, hey...
I know you.
Father. I have the stones.
What?!
Stop.
You're betraying us?
You don't have to do this.
I am... this.
No, you're not.
You've seen what we become.
Nebula, listen to her.
You can change.
He won't let me.
No!
Okay, Thor. Hit me.
Boss, wake up.
I knew it!
In all my years of conquest...
violence...
slaughter...
It was never personal.
But I'll tell you now...
what I'm about to do
to your stubborn,
annoying little planet...
I'm gonna enjoy it.
Very, very much.
Cap, you hear me?
Cap, it's Sam.
Can you hear me?
On your left.
Is that everyone?
What, you wanted more?
Avengers...
... assemble.
No, no. Give me that.
You have the little one.
Hey!
Holy cow.
You will not believe what's been going on.
Do you remember when we were in space?
And I got all dusty? I must've passed
out, 'cause I woke up, and you were gone.
But Doctor Strange was there, right?
He was like,
"It's been five years.
Come on, they need us!"
And then he started doing the yellow
sparkly thing that he does all the time...
What are you doing?
This is nice.
Gamora?
I thought I lost you.
Don't... touch... me!
You missed the first time...
then you got them
both the second time.
This is the one? Seriously?
The choices were him, or a tree.
Cap, what do you want me to
do with this damn thing?
Get those stones as
far away as possible!
No!
We need to get them back
where they came from.
No way to get them back. Thanos
destroyed the quantum tunnel.
Hold on!
That wasn't our
only time machine.
Anyone see an ugly
brown van up there?
Yes!
But you're not gonna
like where it's parked.
Scott, how long you need
to get that thing working?
Maybe ten minutes.
Get it started. We'll
get the stones to you.
We're on it, Cap.
Hey.
You said one out of 14
million, we win, yeah?
Tell me this is it.
If I tell you what
happens, it won't happen.
You better be right.
It's a mess back here.
It's... it's dead.
- What?
- It's dead.
I have to hotwire it.
Where's Nebula?
She's not responding.
Sire!
Clint!
Give it to me.
You took everything from me.
I don't even know who you are.
You will.
I got it!
Activate Instant Kill!
Rain fire!
But Sire, our troops!
Just do it!
Is anyone else seeing this?
I got this.
I got this!
Okay, I don't got this.
- Help! Somebody, help!
- Hey, Queens. Heads up.
Hang on. I got you, kid.
Hey! Nice to meet---
Oh! My God!
What the hell is this?
Friday, what are they firing at?
Something just entered
the upper atmosphere.
Oh, yeah!
Danvers, we need an assist here.
Hi. I'm Peter Parker.
Hey, Peter Parker. Got
something for me?
I don't know how you're
gonna get through all that.
Don't worry.
She's got help.
I am... inevitable.
And I...
am...
... Iron Man.
Mr. Stark?
Hey...
Mr. Stark? Can you hear me?
It's Peter.
We won.
Mr. Stark....
We won, Mr. Stark.
We won and you did it, sir.
You did it.
I'm sorry... Tony...
- Hey.
- Hey, Pep...
- Friday?
- Life functions critical.
Tony.
Look at me.
We're gonna be okay.
You can rest now.
Everybody wants a
happy ending, right?
But it doesn't always
roll that way.
Maybe this time.
I'm hoping if you
play this back,
it's in celebration.
I hope families are reunited,
I hope we get it back,
and something like a
normal version of the
planet has been restored.
If there ever was such a thing.
God, what a world.
Universe, now.
If you told me ten years
ago that we weren't alone,
let alone, you know,
to this extent,
I mean, I wouldn't have been surprised.
But come on, you know?
That epic forces of darkness and
light that have come into play.
And, for better or worse,
that's the reality Morgan's gonna
have to find a way to grow up in.
So I found the time and I
recorded a little greeting...
In the case of an untimely death.
On my part.
Not that, death in any
time isn't untimely.
This time travel thing that we're
gonna try and pull off tomorrow,
it's, it's got me scratching
my head about this.
But then again, that's the hero gig.
Part of the journey is the end.
Everything's gonna work out
exactly the way it's supposed to.
I love you 3,000.
You know, I wish
there was a way...
that I could let her know.
That we won.
We did it.
She knows.
They both do.
How you doing, Squirt?
- Good.
- You good?
- Okay. You hungry?
- Mm-hmm.
- What do you want?
- Cheeseburgers.
You know your Dad
liked cheeseburgers?
I'm gonna get you all the
cheeseburgers you want.
Okay.
So, when can we expect you back?
- About that...
- Thor. Your people need a king.
No, they already have one.
That's funny.
You're being serious?
It's time for me to be
who I am rather than
who I'm supposed to be.
But you, you're a leader.
That's who you are.
You know I'd make a lot
of changes around here.
I'm counting on it.
Your Majesty.
What will you do?
I'm not sure.
For the first time in a
thousand years, I...
I have no path. I do
have a ride, though.
Move it or lose it, hairbag.
Well, here we are.
Tree! Good to see you.
Well...
The As-Guardians of the
Galaxy back together again.
Where to first?
Just so you know, this is my ship still.
I'm in charge.
I know. I know. Of
course, you are.
Of course.
See, you say of course, but
then you touch the map.
It makes you think that maybe you
didn't realize I was in charge.
Quail, that's your own
insecurities in there. Okay?
I'm merely trying to be of service.
An assistant.
- Quill.
- That's what I said.
You should fight one another
for the honor of leadership.
Sounds fair.
- It's not necessary.
- It's not.
Okay?
I got some blasters unless
you guys wanna use knives.
Oh, yes. Please, use knives.
I am Groot.
Not necessary.
There shall be no
knifing one another.
Everybody knows who's in charge.
It's me.
Yes, you! Of course!
Of course. Of course.
Remember...
You have to return the stones at
the exact moment you got them.
Or you're gonna open up a bunch
of nasty alternative realities.
Don't worry, Bruce.
Clip all the branches.
You know, I tried.
When I had the gauntlet, the stones,
I really tried to bring her back.
- I miss them, man.
- Me, too.
You know, if you want,
I can come with you.
You're a good man, Sam.
This one's on me, though.
Don't do anything stupid
'till I get back.
How can I? You're taking
all the stupid with you.
Gonna miss you, Buddy.
It's gonna be okay, Buck.
How long is this gonna take?
For him? As long as he
needs, For us, five seconds.
Ready, Cap?
Alright. We'll meet
you back here, okay?
You bet.
Going quantum. Three..
two.. one...
And returning in, five,
four, three, two, one...
Where is he?
I don't know. He blew right by his
time stamp. He should be here.
- Well, get him back.
- I'm trying.
- Get him the hell back.
- I said, I'm trying!
Sam.
Go ahead.
Cap?
Hi, Sam.
So did something go wrong,
or did something go right?
Well, after I put the
stones back, I thought...
Maybe I'll try some
of that life Tony was...
telling me to get.
How did that work out for you?
It was beautiful.
I'm happy for you. Truly.
Thank you.
Only thing bumming me
out is the fact I have
to live in a world
without Captain America.
Oh...
That reminds me...
Try it on.
How's it feel?
Like it's someone else's.
It isn't.
Thank you.
I'll do my best.
That's why it's yours.
You wanna tell me about her?
No.
No, I don't think I will.

- Can you see?
- Yeah.
- You sure?
- Mm-hmm.
How about now?
Can you see now?
All right.
Ready? Three fingers.
Nice!
- Nice throw, kiddo!
- Go.
Hey, you guys want mayo
or mustard, or both?
Who wants mayo on a hotdog?
Pardon your brothers. Two mustards, please!
Thanks, momma.
Got it.
Nate, mayo or mustard?
I want ketchup.
Mind your elbow...
Good job, Hawkeye!
Go get your arrow.
Hey, guys. Enough practice.
Soup's on.
All right. We're coming.
We're hungry.
Lila, let's go.
Lila?
Honey?
Babe?
Babe?
Babe?
Boys!
Boys?
Laura!
You don't need to do that,
because you're just
holding the position.
Come on.
That was close.
That's a goal. We're
now one a-piece.
I would like to try again.
We're tied up.
Feel the tension? It's fun.
That was terrible. Now you
have a chance to win.
And you won. Congratulations.
Fair game.
Good sport.
You had fun?
It was fun.
This thing on?
Hey, Miss Potts... Pep.
If you find this recording...
don't post it, on social media.
It's gonna be a real tear-jerker.
I don't know if you're
ever gonna see these.
I don't even know
if you're still...
Oh, God. I hope so...
Today is day 21... uh, 22.
You know, if it wasn't for
the existensial terror of
staring into the
literal void of space,
I'd say, I'm feeling
more better today.
The infection's run its course,
thanks to the blue meanie back there.
You'd love her. Very practical.
Only a tiny bit sadistic.
Some fuel cells were cracked during battle, but
we figured out a way to reverse the ion charge
to buy ourselves, about,
48 hours of playtime.
But it's now dead in the water.
We're 1,000 lightyears
from the nearest 7-11.
Oxygen will run out
tomorrow morning.
That'll be it.
And Pep, I...
I know I said no
more surprises, but
I gotta say I was really hoping
to pull off one last one.
But it looks like...
Well, you know what
it looks like.
Don't feel bad about this.
I mean actually if you
grovel for a couple weeks,
and then, move on
with enormous guilt.
I should probably lie down.
I'm gonna caress my
Please know that...
When I drift off, it will be
goodbye the whole time...
I'll think about you.
Because it's always you.
- Couldn't stop him.
- Neither could I.
I lost the kid.
Tony, we lost.
Is, umm...
Oh, my God!
It's okay.
It's been 23 days since
Thanos came to Earth.
World governments are in pieces.
The parts that are still working
are trying to take a census,
And it looks like he did...
He did exactly what he said he
was gonna do. Thanos wiped out..
...fifty percent of
all living creatures.
Where is he now? Where?
We don't know.
He just opened a portal
and walked through.
What's wrong with him?
He's pissed.
He thinks he failed.
Which of course he did, but there's a
lot of that goin' around, ain't there?
Honestly, at this exact second, I
thought you were a Build-A-Bear.
Maybe I am.
We've been hunting Thanos
for three weeks now.
Deep space scans, and
satellites, and we got nothing.
- Tony you fought him.
- Who told you that?
Didn't fight him.
No. He wiped my face
with a planet while a
Bleecker Street magician
gave away the stone.
- That's what happened. There was no fight...
- Okay.
Did he give you any clues?
Any coordinates, anything?
Pfft!
I saw this coming a few years back. I had
a vision. I didn't wanna believe it.
Thought I was dreaming.
- Tony I'm gonna need you to focus.
- And I needed you.
As in past tense. That trumps what
you need. It's too late, buddy.
Sorry.
You know what I need?
I need to shave.
- And I believe I rememeber telling
- Tony, Tony, Tony...
why that otherwise,
that what we needed was a suit of armor
around the world. Remember that?
Whether it impacted our precious
freedoms, or not. That's what we needed.
- Well that didn't work out, did it?
- I said we'd lose.
You said, "We'll do
that together, too."
Well guess what, Cap? We lost.
You weren't there.
But that's what we do, right?
Our best work after the fact?
We're the Avengers? We're the Avengers?
Not the Prevengers?
Okay. You made your point.
Just sit down, okay?
- No, no. Here's my... She's great, by the way.
- Tony, sit, sit down!
We need you. You're new blood.
Bunch of tired old mills...
I got nothing for you, Cap.
I got no coordinates,
no clues, no strategies,
no options...
Zero. Zip. Nada. No
trust, you liar...
Here, take this. You find
him and you put that on.
You hide.
- Tony!
- I'm fine. I...
Bruce gave him a sedative. He's gonna
probably be out for the rest of the day.
You guys take care of him. And I'll bring
an Bezurian elixir when I come back.
- Where are you going?
- To kill Thanos.
Hey.
You know we usually work
as a team here, and
between you and I we're
also a little fragile.
We realize up there is more your
territory but this is our fight, too.
- You even know where he is?
- I know people who might.
Don't bother.
I can tell you where Thanos is.
Thanos spent a long time
trying to perfect me.
Then when he worked, he
talked about his great plan.
Even disassembled, I
wanted to please him.
I'd ask, where would we go
once his plan was complete?
His answer was always the same.
To The Garden.
That's cute. Thanos has
a retirement plan.
So where is he, then?
When Thanos snapped his fingers,
Earth became ground zero for a power surge
of ridiculously cosmic proportions.
No one's ever seen anything like it...
until two days ago.
On this planet.
Thanos is there.
He used the stones again.
Hey, hey, hey...
We'd be going in
short-handed, you know?
- Look, he still got the stones, so...
- So let's get him.
- We use them to bring everyone back.
- Just like that?
Yeah. Just like that.
Even if there's a small chance
that we can undo this...
I mean, we owe it to everyone
who's not in this room to try.
If we do this, how do we know it's gonna
end any differently than it did before?
Because before, you
didn't have me.
Hey, new girl, everybody in this
room is about that superhero life.
And if you don't mind my asking, where
the hell have you been all this time?
There are a lot of other
planets in the universe.
And unfortunately, they
didn't have you guys.
I like this one.
Let's go get this
son of a bitch.
Okay. Who here hasn't
been to space?
You better not throw
up on my ship.
Approaching jump in 3.. 2.. 1.
I'll head down for recon.
- This is gonna work Steve.
- I know it will.
Because I don't know what
I'm gonna do if it doesn't.
No satellites, no ships, no armies,
no ground defenses of any kind.
It's just him.
Then that's enough.
Oh, no.
Where are they?
Answer the question.
The universe
required correction.
After that, the stones served
no purpose, beyond temptation.
You murdered trillions!
You should be grateful.
- Where are the stones?
- Gone.
- Reduced to atoms.
- You used them two days ago.
I used the stones to
destroy the stones.
It nearly killed me.
But the work is done.
It always will be.
I am inevitable.
We have to tear this place apart.
He has to be lying.
My father is many things.
A liar is not one of them.
Thank you, Daughter.
Perhaps I treated
you too harshly...
What... what did you do?
I went for the head.
So I, uh...
Went on a date the other day.
It's the first time in five years,
you know? Sit there, dinner...
I didn't know what
to talk about.
What did you talk about?
Same old crap, you know? How
things have changed, and...
My job, his job....
How much we miss the Mets.
Then things get quiet..
He cried as they were
serving the salads.
What about you?
I cried just before dessert.
But I'm seeing him
again tomorrow, so...
That's great.
You did the hardest part.
You took the jump, you
didn't know where you
were gonna come down.
And that's it. That's those little
brave baby steps you gotta take.
To try and become whole again.
To try and find purpose.
I went in the ice in '45 right
after I met the love of my life.
Woke up 70 years later.
You got to move on.
Got to move on.
The world is in our hands.
It's left to us guys.
And we got to do
something with it.
Otherwise...
Thanos should've
killed all of us.
What the hell?
Hope?
Kid! Hey, kid!
What the hell happened here?
My God...
No. Please. Please, please.
No, no, no...
Excuse me. Sorry.
No, Cassie, no.
No.
No, no.
Please, please,
please, please....
No, Cassie...
What?
Cassie?
Dad?
You're so big!
Yeah, we boarded that highly
suspect warship Danvers pinged.
It was an infectious
garbage scowl.
So, thanks for the hot tip.
- Well, you were closer.
- Yeah. And now we smell like garbage.
You get a reading
on those tremors?
It was a mild subduction
under the African plate.
Do we have a visual? How
are we handling it?
Nat, it's an earthquake
under the ocean.
We handle it by not handling it.
Carol, are we seeing
you here next month?
- Not likely.
- What, you gonna get another haircut?
Listen, fur-face. I'm
covering a lot of territory.
The things that are
happening on Earth are
happening everywhere, on
thousands of planets.
That's a good point.
That's a good point.
So you might not see
me for a long time.
All right. Uh, well...
This channel is always active.
So, anything goes sideways...
Anyone's making trouble
where they shouldn't...
- Comes through me.
- Okay.
All right.
Good luck.
- Where are you?
- Mexico.
The federales found a
room full of bodies.
Looks like a bunch of cartel guys. Never
even had the chance to get their guns off.
- It's probably a rival gang...
- Except it isn't.
It's definitely Barton.
What he's done here, what he's
been doing for the last few years,
I mean, the scene
that he left...
I gotta tell you, there's a part of
me that doesn't even wanna find him.
Will you find out where
he's going next?
Nat...
Please.
Okay.
You know I'd offer to clip your dinner
but you seem pretty miserable already.
You here to do your laundry?
And to see a friend.
Clearly, your friend is fine.
You know I saw a pod of whales
when I was coming up the bridge.
- In the Hudson?
- There's fewer ships, cleaner water.
You know, if you're about to tell
me to look on the bright side...
Um...
I'm about to hit you in the head
with a peanut butter sandwich.
Sorry. Force of habit.
You know I keep telling everybody
they should move on and... grow.
Some do.
But not us.
- If I move on, who does this?
- Maybe it doesn't need to be done.
I used to have nothing.
And then I got this.
This job.
This family.
And I was... I was
better because of it.
And even though...
they're gone...
Now, I'm still
trying to be better.
I think we both
need to get a life.
You first.
Oh... Hi. Hi!
Is anyone home?
This is Scott Lang.
We met a few years ago, at the airport?
In Germany?
I got really big and
I had my mask on.
- You wouldn't recognize me.
- Is this an old message?
Ant-Man? Ant-Man, I
know you know that.
It's the front gate.
I need to talk to you guys.
Scott.
- Are you okay?
- Yeah.
Have either of you guys ever
studied quantum physics?
Only in mid-conversation.
Alright. So...
Five years ago, right before...
Thanos,
I was in a place called
the quantum realm.
The quantum realm is like its
own microscopic universe.
To get in there, you have to be
incredibly small. Hope, she's my...
She... she was my...
She was supposed to pull me out.
And then Thanos happened, and
- I got stuck in there.
- Sorry. That must've been a long 5 years.
Yeah, but that's just it.
It wasn't.
For me it was five hours.
See, the rules of the quantum realm
aren't like they are up here.
Everything is unpredictable. Is that
anybody's sandwich? I'm starving.
Scott.
What are you talking about?
So...
What I'm saying is...
Time works differently
in the quantum realm.
The only problem is right now, we
don't have a way to navigate it.
But what if we did?
I can't stop thinking about it. What
if we could somehow control the chaos,
and we could navigate it? What if
there was a way that we can enter
the quantum realm at a certain
point in time but then
exit the quantum realm at
another point in time? Like...
Like before Thanos.
Wait, are you talking
about a time machine?
No. No, of course not.
No, not a time machine.
It's more like a...
Yeah, a time machine. I know it's crazy.
It's crazy.
But I can't stop thinking about it.
There's gotta be...
Some wa... It's crazy.
I get e-mails from a raccoon. So,
nothing sounds crazy anymore.
So who do we talk to about this?
Chow-time!
Morgoona.
Morgan H. Stark.
Want some lunch?
- Define lunch or be disintegrated.
- Okay.
You should not be
wearing that, okay?
That is part of a special anniversary
gift I'm making for Mom.
There you go. Are you
thinking about lunch?
Want a handful of crickets?
- No.
- That's what you want.
- How did you find this?
- Garage.
Really?
- Were you looking for it?
- No.
I found it, though.
You like going to the garage, huh?
So does Daddy.
It's fine actually. Mom never
wears anything I wear.
Now, we know what
it sounds like...
Tony after everything you've seen,
is anything really impossible...
Quantum fluctuation messes
with the Planck scale,
which then triggers the Deutsch
proposition. Can we agree on that?
Thank you.
In Layman's terms, it means
you're not coming home.
- I did.
- No.
You accidentally survived. It's a---
It's a billion-to-one
cosmic fluke.
And now you wanna pull a...
What do you call it?
- A time heist?
- Yeah. Time heist.
Of course. Why didn't we
think of this before?
Oh! Because it's laughable?
Because it's a pipedream?
The stones are in the past. We
can go back and we can get them.
We can snap our own fingers.
We can bring everybody back.
Or screw it up worse than
he already has, right?
I don't believe we would.
Gotta say this. Sometimes, I
miss that giddy optimism.
However, high hopes won't
help if there's no logical,
tangible, way for me to safely
execute said time heist.
I believe the most likely outcome
will be our collective demise.
Not if we strictly follow
the rules of time travel.
That means no talking to our past selves,
no betting on sporting events...
I'm gonna stop you
right there, Scott.
Are you seriously telling
me that your plan to
save the universe is based
on Back to the Future?
- No.
- Good. You had me worried there.
'Cause that'd be horseshit. That's
not how quantum physics works.
Tony...
We have to take a stand.
We did stand. And
yet, here we are.
I know you got a lot on the line.
You got a wife, a daughter.
But I lost someone very important to me.
A lot of people did.
And now, now, we have a chance to bring
her back. To bring everyone back.
And you're telling me
that you won't even...
That's right, Scott.
I won't. Leave it.
Got a kid.
Mommy told me to
come and save you.
Good job. I'm saved.
I wish you'd come here to
ask me something else.
Anything else. Honestly, I
missed you guys, it was...
- Oh, and table's set for six.
- Tony, I get it.
And I'm happy for you.
I really am.
But this is a second chance.
I got my second chance
right here, Cap.
I can't roll the dice again.
If you don't talk shop,
you can stay for lunch.
- He's scared.
- He's not wrong.
Yeah, but I mean,
what are we gonna do?
We need him. What,
are we gonna stop?
No. I wanna do it right.
We're gonna need a
really big brain.
Bigger than his?
Come on. I feel like I'm the only
one eating. Try some of that.
Have some eggs.
I'm so confused.
- These are confusing times.
- Right. No, no...
- That's not what I meant. I...
- No, I get it.
I'm kidding! I know. It's crazy.
- I'm wearing shirts now.
- Yeah! How? Why?
Five years ago we
got our asses beat.
Except it was worse for me.
Because I lost twice.
First, Hulk lost. Then Banner lost.
Then, we all lost.
- No one blamed you, Bruce.
- I did.
For years I've been
treating the Hulk like he's
some kind of disease,
something to get rid of.
But then I started looking
at him as the cure.
Eighteen months in a gamma lab. I put
the brains and the brawn together.
And now look at me.
Best of both worlds.
- Excuse me, Mr. Hulk?
- Yes?
- Can we get a photo?
- 100%, little person.
Come on, step on up. You mind?
Oh.
- Say "green."
- Green.
Greeeen.
- Did you get that?
- That's good.
Don't you wanna grab one with me?
I'm Ant-Man.
They're Hulk fans.
They don't know Ant-Man.
- Nobody does.
- Wait, no, no, he wants to...
You want to take a
picture with him, right?
He's even saying no he doesn't.
I get it.
I don't want it either. I don't
want a picture with them.
- He's gonna feel bad.
- Sorry.
- They said they'd do it.
- I don't want it anymore.
- You'd feel bad...
- Take the goddamn phone.
Thank you, Mr. Hulk.
No, it's great, kids.
Thank you very much.
- Hulk out!
- Bruce.
- Dab.
- Bruce.
Listen to your Mom.
She knows better.
- About we were saying...
- Right.
The whole time travel do-over?
Guys, it's outside of
my area of expertise.
Well, you pulled this off.
I remember a time when that
seemed pretty impossible, too.
Look at a mod inspiration,
let me see what checks out.
So, recommend one last sim before
we pack it in for the night.
This time, in the shape of a
mobius strip, inverted. Please?
Processing...
Give me that eigenvalue. That, particle
factoring, and spectral decomp.
- Gotta take a second.
- Just a moment.
And don't worry if it doesn't pan out.
I'm just kinda...
Model rendered.
Shit!
Shit!
What are you doing
up, Little Miss?
- Shit.
- No. We don't say that.
Only Mommy says that word. She
coined it, it belongs to her.
Why you up?
'Cause I got some important shit
going on here. What do you think?
No, I got something on my mind.
I got something on my mind.
- Was it Juice Pops?
- Sure was.
That's extortion.
Great minds think alike. Juice
Pops, exactly was on...
my mind.
You done? Yeah? Now you are.
- That face, goes there.
- Tell me a story.
A story.
Once upon a time, a little
girl went to bed. The end.
That ain't the whole story.
Come on, that's your
favorite story.
I love you tons.
I love you 3,000.
Wow.
3,000. That's crazy.
Go to bed. Or I'll
sell all your toys.
Night-night.
Not that it's a competition,
but she loves me 3,000.
You were somewhere in
the low 6 to 900 range.
- What you reading?
- Just a book on composting.
What's new with composting?
- Just ....
- I figured it out...
by the way.
You know, just so we're talking
about the same thing...
Time travel.
What?
Wow.
That's...
Amazing, and.... terrifying.
That's right.
- I got really lucky.
- Yeah. I know.
- A lot of people didn't.
- No, I can't help everybody.
- It sorta seems like you can.
- Not if I stop.
I can put a pin in it
right now, and stop.
Tony...
trying to get you to stop has been one
of the few failures of my entire life.
I sometimes feel I should put it in a locked
box and drop it at the bottom of a lake...
...go to bed.
But would you be able to rest?
Okay, here we go. Time
travel test number one.
Scott, fire up the, uhh...
The van thing.
Breakers are set. Emergency
generators are on standby.
Good. 'Cause if we blow the grid, I don't
wanna lose Tiny here in the 1950's.
- Excuse me?
- He's kidding.
You can't say things like that.
Just... it was, just a bad joke.
- You were kidding, right?
- I have no idea.
We're talking about time travel here.
Either it's all a joke, or none of it is.
We're good! Get your helmet on.
Scott, I'm gonna send you
back a week, but you'll walk
around for an hour, then bring
you back in 10 seconds.
- Makes sense?
- Perfectly not confusing.
Good luck, Scott. You got this.
You're right. I do,
Captain America.
On the count of three.
3.. 2.. 1..
Guys? This doesn't feel right.
- What's going on? Hold on.
- Who is that?
- Is that Scott?
- Yes, it's Scott!
Ooh! My back!
- Can you bring him back?
- I'm working on it!
A baby.
- It's Scott.
- As a baby!
Bring Scott back.
When I say kill the
power, kill the power.
And... kill it!
Somebody peed my pants.
I don't know if it was
"baby" me or "old" me.
Or, just "me" me.
Time travel!
What?
I see this as an absolute win.
Why the long face?
Let me guess. He
turned into a baby.
Among other things, yeah.
What are you doing here?
That's the EPR paradox.
Instead of pushing Lang through time, you
might've wound up pushing time through Lang.
It's tricky. Dangerous. Somebody
coulda cautioned you against it.
- You did.
- Oh, did I?
Thank God, I'm here.
Regardless, I fixed it.
A fully functioning
time-space GPS.
I just want peace.
Turns out, resentment is
corrosive, and I hate it.
Me, too.
We got a shot at getting
these stones, but I
gotta tell you my
priority is to bring back
what we lost? I hope, yes.
Keep what I found? I
have to, at all costs.
And, maybe not die
trying will be nice.
Sounds like a deal.
- Tony, I don't know...
- Why? He made it for you.
Plus, honestly I have to get it out the
garage before Morgan takes it sledding.
Thank you, Tony.
Will you keep that a little quietly?
Didn't bring one for the whole team.
- We are getting, the whole team, yeah?
- We're working on that right now.
- Hey, humie! Where's big green?
- Kitchen. I think.
- That's awesome.
- Rodent, careful on re-entry.
There's an idiot on
the landing zone.
Oh, God!
What's up, regular-sized man?
Kind of a step down from a golden palace
for an Avenger highness or whatnot.
Hey, have a little compassion, pal.
First, they've lost Asgard,
then half the people. They're probably
just happy they have a home.
You shouldn't have come!
Valkyrie!
Great to see you, Angry Girl.
I think I liked you better
either of the other ways.
- This is Rocket.
- How you doin'?
- He won't see you.
- That bad, huh?
We only see him once a month,
when he comes in for...
...supplies.
- It's that bad.
- Yeah.
What the...
Woo! Something died in here.
Hello? Thor?
Are you here about the cable?
The Cinemax ran out two weeks ago,
and, sports were all kind of fuzzy...
Boys! Oh, my God!
My God! How have you been?
Come here, you little rascal!
No, I'm good! I'm good.
That's not necessary!
Hulk, you know my friends,
Miek, Korg, right?
- Hey, boys!
- Hey, guys. Long time no see.
Beer's on the bucket. Feel
free to log on to the wi-fi.
No password, obviously.
Thor, he's back. That kid on the TV
who's called me a dickhead again.
- Noobmaster.
- Yeah, Noobmaster69.
Noobmaster. Hey, it's Thor again.
You know, the God of Thunder?
Listen, buddy. If you don't log off
this game immediately I'm gonna fly
home to your house, come down to
that basement you're hiding in,
rip off your arms then
shove them up your butt!
Oh, that's right. Yes, go cry to
your father, you little weasel!
Thank you, Thor.
Let me know if he
bothers you again, okay?
Thank you very much. I will.
So you guys want a drink?
What are you drinking?
We have beer, tequila,
all sorts of things.
Buddy, you all right?
Yes, I'm fine! Why,
don't I look all right?
You look like melted ice cream.
So, what's up?
We need your help. There might be
a chance we could fix everything.
What, like the cable? 'Cause that's
been driving me bananas for weeks.
Like Thanos.
Don't say that name.
Um, yeah. We don't actually
say that name in here.
Please take your hand off me.
Now, I know that...
guy might scare you.
Why would I be? Why would, why
would I be scared of that guy?
I'm the one who killed
that guy, remember?
Anyone else here
killed that guy?
Nope. Didn't think so.
Korg, why don't you, tell everybody
who chopped Thanos' big head off.
Umm... Stormbreaker?
Now, who's swinging
Stormbreaker?
I get it. You're in a rough spot, okay?
I've been there myself.
You wanna know who
helped me out of it?
I don't know. Is it... Natasha?
It was you.
You helped me.
Why don't you ask the,
Asgardians down there,
how much my help was worth.
The ones that are left, anyway.
I think we can bring them back.
Stop. Just, stop...
I know you think I'm down here wallowing in
my own self-pity, waiting to be rescued and
and saved. But I'm fine, okay?
We're fine, aren't we?
Nah, all good here, mate!
So, whatever it is that
you're offering, we're
not into it, don't care,
couldn't care less.
Goodbye.
We need you, pal.
There's beer on the ship.
What kind?
It's him! He's after Akihiko!
We never did anything to you!
You're done hurting people.
You're crazy!
Wait! Help me!
What I want...
You can't give me.
You shouldn't be here.
Neither should you.
I've got a job to do.
Is that what you're
calling this?
Killing all these people isn't
gonna bring your family back.
We found something.
A chance, maybe...
Don't.
Don't what?
Don't give me hope.
I'm sorry I couldn't
give it to you sooner.
Drifting left. On the
side there, Lebowski.
- Ratchet, how's it going?
- It's Rocket.
Take it easy. You're only
a genius on Earth, pal.
Yup.
Time travel suit? Not bad.
Hey, hey, hey. Easy, easy!
- I'm being very careful.
- No, you're being very Hulky.
- I'm being careful.
- These are Pym particles, all right?
And ever since Hank Pym got snapped
out of existence, this is it.
This is what we have. We're
not making any more.
- Scott, calm down.
- Sorry.
We've got enough for
one round trip, each.
That's it. No do-overs.
Plus, two test runs.
One test run.
All right. I'm not
ready for this.
I'm game.
I'll do it.
Clint, now you're gonna feel
a little discombobulated
from the chronoshift.
Don't worry about it.
Wait a second, let me
ask you something.
If we can do this, you know, go
back in time, why don't we just
find baby Thanos, you know?
And...
- First of all, that's horrible.
- It's Thanos.
And secondly, time doesn't work that way.
Changing the past doesn't change the future.
Look, we go back, we get the
stones before Thanos gets them...
Thanos doesn't have the stones.
Problem solved.
- Bingo.
- That's not how it works.
- Well, that's what I heard.
- What? By who? Who told you that?
Star Trek, Terminator,
TimeCop, Time After Time,
- Quantum Leap.
- A Wrinkle in Time,
- Somewhere in Time,
- Hot Tub Time Machine.
Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. Basically,
any movie that deals with time travel.
Die Hard? No, it's not...
This is known.
I don't know why everyone believes
that, but that isn't true.
Think about it: If you travel to the
past, that past becomes your future.
And your former present
becomes the past.
Which can't now be changed
by your new future...
Exactly.
So Back to the Future's
a bunch of bullshit?
All right, Clint. We're going in 3..
2.. 1...
Cooper?
- Where are my headphones?
- Lila?
Lila! No!
Dad?
Dad?
Hey, hey. Look at me. You okay?
Yeah.
It worked.
It worked.
Okay, so the "how" works.
Now we gotta figure out the
"when," and the "where."
Almost everyone in this
room has had an encounter
with at least one of the
six Infinity Stones.
Well, I'd subtitute the
word 'encounter' for 'damn
near been killed by one of
the six Infinity Stones.'
I haven't. I don't even know what
the hell you're all talking about.
Regardless, we only have enough Pym
Particles for one round trip each,
and these stones have been in a lot of
different places throughout history.
Our history. So, not a lot of
convenient spots to just drop in.
- Which means we have to pick our targets.
- Correct.
So. Let's start
with the Aether.
Thor, what do you know?
Is he asleep?
Where to start? Umm...
The Aether, first,
is not a stone.
Someone's called it a stone before.
Ahem...
It's more of a... an angry
sludge, sort of thing. So...
Someone's gonna need to amend
that, and stop saying that.
Here's an interesting
story, though.
About the Aether. My
grandafther, many years
ago, had to hide the stone
from the Dark Elves.
Scary beings. So Jane...
Oh, there she is. That's Jane...
She's... an old flame of mine.
She... she stuck her hand
inside a rock this one time...
and then the Aether stuck
itself inside her.
And, she became very, very sick.
So I had to take her to
Asgard, which is where I'm from.
And we had to try and fix her.
We were dating at the time, you see. I
got to introduce her to my Mother...
who's dead, and umm....
Oh, you know. Jane and I aren't
even dating anymore, so...
These things happen though, you know.
Nothing lasts forever.
- The only thing that...
- Why don't you come sit down.
I'm not done yet. The only thing that
is permanent in life, is impermanence.
Awesome.
Eggs? Breakfast?
No. I'd like a Bloody Mary.
Quill said he stole the
Power Stone from Morag.
- Is that a person?
- Morag's a planet.
Quill was a person.
Like a planet? Like
in outer space?
Oh, look. It's like a little
puppy, all happy and everything.
Do you wanna go to space? You
wanna go to space, puppy?
I'll take you to space.
- Thanos found the Soul Stone on Vormir.
- What is Vormir?
A dominion of death, at the very
center of Celestial existence.
It's where... Thanos
murdered my sister.
Noted.
- That Time Stone guy...
- Doctor Strange.
Yeah, what kind
of doctor was he?
- Neurostuff meets rabbit from a hat.
- Nice place in the village, though.
- Yeah. Sullivan Street.
- Hmm... Bleecker.
Wait, he lived in New York?
- No. He lived in Toronto.
- Yeah, not Bleecker. It's Sullivan.
Guys, if you pick the right year,
there are three stones in New York.
Shut the front door!
All right. We have a plan.
Six stones, three
teams, one shot.
Five years ago, we lost.
All of us.
We lost friends...
We lost family...
We lost a part of ourselves.
Today, we have a chance
to take it all back.
You know your teams, you
know your missions.
Get the stones, get them back.
One round trip each. No mistakes.
No do-overs.
Most of us are going
somewhere we know.
But it doesn't mean we
should know what to expect.
Be careful. Look out
for each other.
This is the fight of our lives.
And we're gonna win.
Whatever it takes.
Good luck.
- He's pretty good at that.
- Right?
All right. You heard the man.
Stroke those keys, jelly green.
Tractors engaged.
You promise to bring that
back in one piece, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah. Okay.
- I'll do my best.
- As promises go, that was pretty lame.
See you in a minute.
All right, we all have our assignments.
Two stones uptown, one stone, down.
Stay low. Keep an
eye on the clock.
Feel free to smash if
things don't go your way.
I think it's gratuitous,
but whatever.
I'd be careful going that way.
We just had the floors waxed.
Ma'am, I'm looking
for Doctor Strange.
You're about... five
years too early.
Stephen Strange is currently performing
surgery about twenty blocks that way.
What do you want from him?
That, actually.
Ah.
- I'm afraid not.
- Sorry, but I wasn't asking.
- You don't wanna do this.
- You're right. I don't.
But I need that stone, and
I don't have time to...
Let's start over, shall we?
That's Jane.
All right.
Here's the deal, Tubby:
You're gonna charm her and I'm
gonna poke her with this thing
and extract the Reality Stone
and get gone, lickety-split.
I'll be right back, okay? There's a
wine cellar, that's just down there.
My father used to fish
with a barrel of ale.
- I'll see if the cellar has a couple of...
- Hey! Aren't you drunk enough already?
Who's the fancy broad?
It's my Mother.
She dies today.
Oh. That's today?
I can't do this.
I can't do this.
I shouldn't be here. I shouldn't have come.
This was a bad idea.
- Come here.
- No, no, no. I think I'm having...
- I'm having a panic attack.
- Come here. Right here.
You think you're the only one who lost
people? What do you think we're doing here?
I lost the only
family I ever had.
Quill, Groot, Drax, the chick
with the antenna, all gone.
Now, I get you miss your Mom.
But she's gone. Really gone.
And there are plenty of people
who are only kinda gone.
But you can help them.
So is it too much to ask that you
brush the crumbs outta your beard,
make schmoopy talk to Pretty
Pants, and when she's not looking,
suck out the Infinity Stone and
help me get my family back?
Okay.
- Are you crying?
- No...
Yes!
Get it together!
You can do this.
You can do this.
All right?
- Yes, I can.
- Good.
I can do this.
I can't do this.
Alright, Heartbreaker. She's alone.
This is our shot.
Thor?
Thor!
Alright. Bring it down low.
Right on that line. That's it.
Down, down.
Hey, can we hurry it up?
Guys, chop-chop. Come on.
We're on the clock.
All that, is really helpful.
- Take care, okay?
- Yeah.
Take that stone and come back.
No messing around.
- Hey.
- You got this.
- Let's get it done.
- Yes, sir.
See you back.
You guys watch each other's six.
Yeah.
The coordinates for
Vormir are laid in.
All they have to do
is not fall out.
We're a long way from Budapest.
Okay, so, uhh...
We just wait around for this
Quill guy to show up and
then he leads us to the
Power Stone, is that it?
Let's take cover.
We're not the only ones in
2014 looking for the stones.
Wait a minute, what are
you talking about right
now? Who else is looking
for these stones?
My father, my sister...
- and me.
- And you?
Where are you right now?
- You're welcome.
- I didn't ask for your help.
And yet, you always need it.
Get up.
- Father wants us back on the ship.
- Why?
He's found an Infinity Stone.
- Where?
- On a planet called Morag.
Father's plan is
finally in motion.
- One stone isn't six, Nebula.
- It's a start.
If he gets all of them...
Ronan's located the Power Stone.
I'm dispatching you to his ship.
- He won't like that.
- His alternative is death, then.
Ronan's obsession
clouds his judgement.
We will not fail you, Father.
No, you won't.
I swear...
I will make you proud.
We just, wait around for
this Quill guy to show up,
and then he leads us to the
Power Stone, is that it?
Let's take cover.
We're not the only ones in
2014 looking for the stones.
- Who was that?
- I don't know...
My head is splitting...
I don't know...
Her synaptic drive was
probably damaged in battle.
Bring her to my ship.
Got to hustle, Cap. Things look like
they're just about wrapped up here.
Got it. I'm approaching
the elevator now.
If it's all the same to you...
I'll have that drink now.
All right. Good one. No standing around,
I'm closing up this door for later.
By the way, feel
free to clean up.
Ugh, Mr. Rogers. I almost
forgot that that suit
- did nothing for your ass.
- No one asked you to look.
I think you look great, Cap.
As far as I'm concerned,
that's America's ass.
- Uhh, magic wand?
- STRIKE team's coming to secure it.
We can take that
off your hands.
By all means.
- Careful with that thing!
- Unless you want your mind erased.
- Not in a fun way.
- We promise to be careful.
- Who are these guys?
- They are SHIELD...
Well, actually Hydra. But,
we didn't know that yet.
Seriously, you didn't? I mean...
they look like bad guys.
You're small, but
you're talking loud.
On my way down to
coordinate search and rescue.
On my way down to
coordinate search and rescue!
I mean, honestly! How do
you think you'll be...
Shut up.
All right, you're up, little buddy.
There's our stone.
Alright. Flick me.
- Whoa! Whoa, whoa.
- Hey! Buddy.
What do you think? Maximum
occupancy has been reached.
- Take the stairs!
- Yeah. Stop. Stop!
Take the stairs.
Take the stairs!
All right, Cap. I got our scepter in the
elevator just passing the 80th floor.
On it.
- Head to the lobby.
- Alright. I'll see you there.
Evidence secure. We're
en route to Dr. List.
No. No hitches at all, Mr.
Secretary.
Captain. I thought you were
coordinating search and rescue?
Change of plans.
Hey, Cap.
Rumlow.
I just got a call from the Secretary. I'm
gonna be running point on the scepter.
Sir? I don't understand.
We got word there may be
an attempt to steal it.
Sorry, Cap.
I can't give you the scepter.
- I'm gonna have to call the Director.
- That's okay. Trust me.
Hail Hydra.
So many stairs!
Thumbelina, do you copy?
I've got eyes on the prize.
- It is go-time.
- Bombs away.
Is, is that Axe body spray?
Yeah, I had a can just
for emergencies. Relax.
- Can we focus, please?
- I'm going inside you. Now.
May I ask you
where you're going?
To lunch and then Asgard.
I'm sorry, you are?
Alexander Pierce. He's the man, one
of the folks behind Nick Fury.
My friends call me Mr. Secretary.
I'm gonna have to ask you to
turn that prisoner over to me.
- Loki will be answering to Odin himself.
- Oh, he's gonna answer to us.
Odin can have what's left. And
I'm gonna need that case.
That's been SHIELD property
for over 70 years.
Hand over the case, Stark.
All right, move it, Stuart Little. Things
are getting dicey up here. Let's go.
I'm not gonna argue who's got the
higher authority here, all right?
You promise me you won't die?
You're only giving me a
mild cardiac dysrythmia.
That doesn't sound mild.
I need the case.
I know you got a lotta pull.
I'm just saying...
Okay. Then give me the case.
Do it, Lang!
- Get your hands off!
- Window's closing. Pull my pin!
Here goes!
- Stark?
- Stark!
Look, he's convulsing.
Give him air!
- Medic!
- Medic!
You got some help!
Stark, you--- your
chest machine?
Breathe! Breathe!
Good job. Meet me in the alley.
I'm gonna grab a quick slice.
No stairs!
You'll be fine, Stark.
Stay with us!
I'll try something, okay? I have
no idea if it's gonna work.
Yes!
That worked a treat.
That was so crazy!
I had no idea if
that was gonna work.
- The case...
- The case. It's, uhh...
Where's the case? Where's Loki?
Loki!
- That wasn't supposed to happen, was it?
- Oh, we blew it.
Loki!?
Tony, what's going on?
Tell me you found that cube.
Oh, you gotta be shitting me.
I have eyes on Loki. 14th floor.
I'm not Loki.
And I don't wanna hurt you.
I can do this all day.
Yeah, I know. I know.
Where did you get this?
Bucky... is... alive!
What?
That is America's ass.
- Please, please!
- I'm sorry. I can't help you, Bruce.
If I give up the Time Stone to help
your reality, I'm dooming my own.
With all due respect, I'm not sure
the science really supports that.
The Infinity Stones create what you
experience as the flow of time.
Remove one of the stones,
and that flow splits.
Now this may benefit your reality.
But my new one, not so much.
In this new branched reality, without our
chief weapon against the forces of darkness,
our world will be overrun.
Millions will suffer.
So, tell me, doctor, can your
science prevent all that?
No. But we can erase it.
Because once we're done with the stones, we
can return each one into its own timeline
at the moment it was taken.
So, chronologically...
In that reality....
it never left.
Yes, but you're leaving out
the most important part.
In order to return the
stones, you have to survive.
We will. I will. I promise.
I can't risk this
reality on a promise.
It's the duty, of the Sorcerer
Supreme to protect the Time Stone.
Then why the hell did
Strange give it away?
- What did you say?
- Strange. He gave it away.
He gave it to Thanos.
- Willingly?
- Yes.
- Why?
- I have no idea. Maybe he made a mistake.
Or I did.
Strange was meant to
be the best of us.
So he must've done
it for a reason.
I fear you might be right.
Thank you.
I'm counting on you, Bruce.
We all are.
Run diagnostics.
Show me her memory file.
Sire, the file appears entangled.
It was a memory, but not hers.
There's another consciousness
sharing her network.
Another Nebula.
Impossible.
This duplicate carries a time stamp...
from nine years in the future.
Where is this other Nebula?
In our solar system.
On Morag.
- Can you access her?
- Yes. The two are linked.
Search the duplicate's
memories, for Infinity Stones.
And these stones have been in a lot of
different places throughout history.
Our history. So, not a lot of
convenient spots to just drop in.
- Which means we have to pick our targets.
- Correct.
Freeze image.
Terrans.
Avengers.
Unruly wretches. What's
that reflection?
Amplify this, Maw.
I don't understand.
- Two Nebulas.
- No. The same Nebula.
From two different times.
Set course for Morag. Scan
the duplicate's memories.
I want to see everything.
My ladies, I'll see you after.
Go on.
- What are you doing?
- Ahh!
You're better off leaving the
sneaking to your brother.
Yeah, I was simply just
going for a walk, and uh...
What are you wearing?
I always wear this. This
is one of my favorites.
What's wrong with your eye?
Oh, my eye. That's... you
remember the Battle of Haroquin?
When I got hit in the
face with a broadsword?
You're not the Thor I
know at all, are you?
Yes, I am.
The future hasn't been
kind to you, has it?
I didn't say I'm
from the future.
I was raised by witches, boy.
I see with more than
eyes, and you know that.
I am totally, totally
from the future!
Yes, you are.
- I really need to talk to you.
- We can talk.
His head was over there...
His body over there...
What was the point.
I was too late.
I was just standing there.
- Some idiot with an ax.
- You're no idiot.
You're here aren't you? Seeking counsel
from the wisest person in Asgard.
- I guess, yeah.
- Idiot? No.
- A failure? Absolutely.
- That's a little bit harsh.
You do know what
that makes you?
Just like everyone else.
I'm not supposed to be
like everyone else, am I?
Everyone fails at who they
are supposed to be, Thor.
The measure of a
person, of a hero
is how well they succeed
at being who they are.
I really missed you, Mum.
Thor! I got it!
Get that rabbit!
- Ma, I have to tell you something.
- No, son. You don't.
You're here to repair
your future, not mine.
- But this is about your future.
- It's none of my business.
Hey.
You must be Mom.
I got the thing. Come
on, we got to move.
- I wish we had more time.
- This was a gift.
And you're going to be the
man you're meant to be.
- I love you, Mom.
- I love you.
And eat a salad.
- Come on. We gotta go.
- Goodbye.
- Three... two...
- No, wait!
Wh- what am I looking at?
Oh, sometimes it takes a second.
I'm still worthy.
Oh, boy.
Goodbye, Mom.
So he's an idiot?
What's that?
The tool of a thief.
Whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa...
This is the part where spikes come out,
with skeletons on the end and everything...
What are you talking about?
When you break into a place called
the temple of the Power Stone,
There's gonna be a bunch of booby
traps--- Okay. All right. Go ahead.
I wasn't always like this.
Me either.
But we work with
what we got, right?
Sync up.
Three.. two.. one...
You murdered trillions!
You should be grateful.
- Where are the stones?
- Gone.
- Reduced to atoms.
- You used them two days ago.
I used the stones to destroy the stones.
It nearly killed me.
But the work is done.
It always will be.
I am inevitable.
- What did you do to them?
- Nothing. Yet.
They're not trying to stop something
I'm going to do in our time.
They're trying to undo something
I've already done in theirs.
The stones...
I found them all.
I won.
Tipped the cosmic
scales to balance.
This is your future.
It's my destiny.
My father is many things. A
liar is not one of them.
Thank you, Daughter.
Perhaps I treated
you too harshly...
And that, is destiny fulfilled.
Sire, your Daughter...
No...
...is a traitor.
That's not me. It's not. I could never...
I would never betray you. Never.
I know.
And you'll have the
chance to prove it.
No...
He knows!
Barton? Barton, come in.
Romanoff? Come in, we have a problem.
Come on!
Come in, we have a prob....
Thanos knows.
Thanos...
Cap...
Sorry, buddy.
We got a problem.
Huh. Yeah, we do.
- Well, what are we gonna do now?
- You know what, give me a break, Steve.
I just got hit in the
head with a Hulk.
You said that we had one shot.
This, this was our shot.
We shot it. It's shot. Six stones or nothing.
Six stones or nothing.
You're repeating yourself, you know that?
You're repeating yourself.
You're repeating yourself.
You're repeating yourself.
- No!
- Come on.
You never wanted a time heist, you
went on board with the time heist...
- I dropped the ball.
- You ruined the time heist.
- Is that what I did?
- Yeah!
Are there any other options
with the Tesseract?
No, no, no. There's
no other options.
There's no do-overs. We're
not going anywhere else.
We have one particle left. Each.
That's it, alright? We use that...
Bye, bye. You're not going home.
Yeah, well if we don't try...
then no one else is
going home, either.
I got it.
There's another way. To retake the
Tesseract and acquire new particles.
We'll stroll down memory lane.
Military installation, Garden State.
Why were they both there?
They were there at a...I've
a vaguely exact idea.
How vague?
What are you talking about?
Where are we going?
- I know for a fact they were there...
- Who's they?
- What are we doing?
- And I know how I know.
Guys, what's up? What is it?
Well, it looks like
we're improvising.
- Right.
- What are we improvising?
Scott, get this back
to the compound.
Suit up.
What's in New Jersey?
- 0-4, 0-4...
- Uhh, 0-7.
- 0-7.
- Excuse me...
1-9-7-0.
- Are you sure?
- Cap. Captain. Steve, sorry.
America. Rogers. Look,
if you do this,
and this doesn't work,
you're not coming back.
Thanks for the pep
talk, pissant.
You trust me?
I do.
Your call.
Here we go.
Hey, man!
Make love, not war!
Clearly, you weren't
actually born here, right?
The idea of me was.
Right. Well, imagine
you're SHIELD, running a
quasi-fascistic
intelligence organization.
Where do you hide it?
In plain sight.
Good luck on your
mission, Captain.
Good luck on your
project, doctor.
You're new here?
Not exactly.
Gotcha.
Back in the game.
Arnim, you in there?
Arnim?
Hey!
The door's this way, pal.
Oh, yeah.
I'm looking for Dr. Zola.
Have you seen him?
Yeah, no, Dr. Zol... No,
I haven't seen a soul.
Pardon me.
Do I know you?
No, sir. I'm, a...
visitor from MIT.
Huh. MIT.
Got a name?
Howard.
Well that'll be
easy to remember.
Howard...
...Potts.
Well, I'm Howard Stark.
Hi.
Shit. Now, don't pull it.
Yeah...
You look a little green around
the gills there, Potts.
I'm fine. Just, long hours.
Wanna get some air?
- Hello, Potts.
- Yeah. That would be swell.
- That way.
- Okay.
Need your briefcase?
You're not one of
those, are ya, Potts?
- Hello.
- Dr. Pym?
That would be the number
that you called. Yes.
This is Capt. Stevens
from shipping.
- We have a package for you.
- Bring it up.
Well, that's the thing, sir.
We can't.
I'm confused. I thought
that was your job.
Well, it's just... Sir,
the box is glowing and,
to be honest, some of our mail
guys aren't feeling that great.
They didn't know
better, did they?
Yeah, they did. You
better get down here.
Excuse me. Out of the way!
So, flowers and sauerkraut. You
got a big date tonight?
My wife's expecting.
And, uh... Too much
time in the office.
- Congratulations.
- Thanks. Hold this, will you?
Yeah, sure.
- How far along is she?
- I don't know... uh...
She's at the point where she can't
stand the sound of my chewing.
I guess I'll be eating
dinner in the pantry again.
I have a little girl.
A girl would be nice. Less of a chance
she'd turn out exactly like me.
What'd be so awful about that?
Let's just say that the greater
good has rarely outweighed
my own self-interests.
- And you've never seen these 2 men before?
- No, I've got an eye for this.
- The 2 of them looked fishy.
- Can you describe them?
- Well, one of them had a hippie beard.
- Hippie? Like Bee Gees or Mungo Jerry?
Definitely Mungo Jerry.
Yeah, this is Chesler. I
need every available MPs
on sub-level 6. We have
a potential breach.
So, where are you
at with names?
Well, if it's a boy,
my wife likes Almanzo.
Might wanna let that stew on.
You got time.
Let me ask you a question.
When your kid was born...
- were you nervous?
- Wildly. Yeah.
Did you feel qualified?
Like you had any idea how to
successfully operate that thing?
I literally pieced it
together as I went along,
I thought about what
my Dad did, and...
My old man, he never met a problem
he couldn't solve with a belt.
I thought my Dad
was tough on me.
And now, looking back, I just
remember the good stuff, you know.
- He did drop the odd pearl.
- Yeah? Like what?
"No amount of money ever
bought a second of time."
Smart guy.
He did his best.
Let me tell you. That
kid's not even here yet
and, there's nothing I
wouldn't do for him.
Good to meet you, Potts.
Yeah, Howard...
Everything's gonna be all right.
Thank you for everything...
...you've done for
this country.
Jarvis.
Have we ever met that guy?
Seems very familiar.
Weird beard, though.
- You're weak.
- I'm you.
You can stop this.
You know you want to.
Did you see what
happens in the future?
Thanos finds the Soul Stone.
You wanna know
how he does that?
You wanna know, what
he does to you?
That's enough.
You disgust me.
But, that doesn't
mean you're useless.
How do I look?
Wow...
Under different circumstances,
this would be totally awesome.
I bet the raccoon didn't
have to climb a mountain.
Technically, he's not
a raccoon, you know.
Whatever. He eats garbage.
Welcome.
Natasha, daughter of Ivan.
Clint, son of Edith.
Who are you?
Consider me a guide.
To you, and to all who
seek the Soul Stone.
Okay. You tell us where it is.
Then we'll be on our way.
If only it were that easy.
What you seek lies
in front of you...
...as does what you fear.
The stone is down there.
For one of you.
For the other...
In order to take the stone, you
must lose that which you love.
An everlasting exchange.
A soul, for a soul.
How's it going?
Jesus...
Maybe he's making this shit up.
No. I don't think so.
Why, 'cause he knows
your Daddy's name?
I didn't.
Thanos left here with the stone
without his daughter.
It's not a coincidence.
Yeah.
Whatever it takes.
Whatever it takes.
If we don't get that stone,
billions of people stay dead.
Then I guess we both
know who it's gotta be.
I guess we do.
I'm starting to think, we've been
different people here, Natasha.
For the last five years I've been trying
to do one thing: Get to right here.
That's all it's been about.
Bringing everybody back.
- Oh, don't you get all decent on me now.
- What, you think I wanna do it?
I'm trying to save
your life, you idiot.
Yeah well, I don't want
you to, because I...
Natasha, you know
what I've done.
You know what I've become.
I don't judge people on
their worst mistakes.
Maybe you should.
You didn't.
You're a pain in my
ass, you know that?
Okay.
You win.
Tell my family I love them.
You tell them yourself.
Damn you!
Let me go.
No.
Please, no.
It's okay.
Please...
Did we get them all?
You telling me this'll
actually work?
Clint, where's Nat?
Do we know if she had family?
Yeah. Us.
What?
I just asked him a question...
Yeah, you're acting like she's dead.
Why are we acting like she's dead?
We have the stones, right?
As long as we have
the stones, Cap, we can bring
her back, isn't that right?
So stop this shit. We're the
Avengers, get it together.
We can't get her back.
- Wha- what?
- It can't be undone. It can't.
I'm sorry. No offense, but you're
a very earthly being. Okay?
We're talking about space magic.
And "can't" seems very () don't you think?
Look, I know that I'm way
outside my paygrade here.
But she still isn't
here, is she?
- Now that's my point.
- It can't be undone.
Or that's at least what the,
great floating guy had to say.
Maybe you wanna go talk to him?
Okay?
Go grab your hammer, and you
go fly and you talk to him.
It was supposed to be me.
She sacrificed her life for that
goddamned stone. She bet her life on it.
She's not coming back.
We have to make it worth it.
We have to.
We will.
Boom!
All right. The glove's ready.
Question is, who's gonna
snap their freaking fingers?
I'll do it.
It's okay.
- No, no, no, no. Stop. Stop.
- Hey, hey...
Thor, just wait.
We haven't decided who's
gonna put that on yet.
I'm sorry. What, were you just sitting
around waiting for the right opportunity?
We should at least discuss it.
Look, us sitting here staring at that
thing is not gonna bring everybody back.
I'm the strongest Avenger, okay? So
this responsibility falls upon me.
It's my duty. It's not that... It's...
stop it! Just let me.
Just let me do it. Just
let me do something good.
- Something great.
- Look...
It's not just the fact that
that glove is channeling
enough energy to light up a
continent, I'm telling you
you're in no condition.
What do you think is coursing
through my veins right now?
Cheez Whiz?
- Lightning.
- Yeah.
Lightning won't help you, pal.
It's gotta be me.
You saw what those stones did to Thanos.
It almost killed him.
None of you could survive.
How do we know you will?
I don't. But the
radiation's mostly gamma.
It's like...
I was meant for this.
Good to go, yeah?
Let's do it.
You remember everyone
Thanos snapped away five
years ago and just bringing
them back to now, today.
Don't change anything
from the last five years.
Got it.
Friday, do me a favor and
activate protocol 8.
Yes, boss.
Everybody comes home.
- Take it off. Take it off!
- No, wait. Bruce, are you okay?
Talk to me, Banner.
I'm okay. I'm okay.
Bruce!
Don't move him.
- Did it work?
- Worth a shot. It's over. It's okay.
Honey.
Honey.
Guys...
I think it worked!
I can't breathe. I can't breathe!
I can't breathe.
Canopy. Canopy. Canopy.
Rhodey, Rocket, get outta here!
Hurry up! Hurry up!
Come on!
Rhodey!
Mayday, mayday! Does anybody copy? We're
in the lower level, it's flooding!
- What?
- We're drowning! Does anybody copy? Mayday!
Wait! I'm here! I'm
here, can you hear me?
Cap?
Daughter.
Yes, Father.
So, this is the future.
Well done.
Thank you, Father. They
suspected nothing.
The arrogant never do.
Go.
Find the stones.
Bring them to me.
What will you do?
Wait.
Tell me something.
In the future, what
happens to you and me?
I tried to kill you.
Several times.
But eventually,
we become friends.
We become sisters.
Come on.
We can stop him.
Come on, buddy. Wake up.
That's my man.
You lose this again,
I'm keeping it.
What happened?
We messed with time.
It tends to mess back.
You'll see.
What's he been doing?
Absolutely nothing.
Where are the stones?
Lost somewhere under all this.
All I know is he
doesn't have them.
So we keep it that way.
- You know it's a trap, right?
- Yeah...
I don't much care.
Good.
Just as long as we're
all in agreement.
Let's kill him
properly this time.
You could not live
with your own failure.
Where did that bring you?
Back to me.
I thought by eliminating
half of life,
the other half would thrive.
But you've shown me,
that's impossible.
And as long as there are those
that remember what was,
there will always be those that
are unable to accept what can be.
They will resist.
Yep. We're all
kinds of stubborn.
I'm thankful.
Because now, I know
what I must do.
I will shred this universe
down to its last atom.
And then...
With the stones you've collected
for me, create a new one.
Teeming with life,
but knows not what it has lost
but only what it has been given.
A grateful universe.
Born out of blood.
They'll never know it.
Because you won't be
alive to tell them.
See you on the other side, man.
Hang on! I'm coming!
Oh, hey...
I know you.
Father. I have the stones.
What?!
Stop.
You're betraying us?
You don't have to do this.
I am... this.
No, you're not.
You've seen what we become.
Nebula, listen to her.
You can change.
He won't let me.
No!
Okay, Thor. Hit me.
Boss, wake up.
I knew it!
In all my years of conquest...
violence...
slaughter...
It was never personal.
But I'll tell you now...
what I'm about to do
to your stubborn,
annoying little planet...
I'm gonna enjoy it.
Very, very much.
Cap, you hear me?
Cap, it's Sam.
Can you hear me?
On your left.
Is that everyone?
What, you wanted more?
Avengers...
... assemble.
No, no. Give me that.
You have the little one.
Hey!
Holy cow.
You will not believe what's been going on.
Do you remember when we were in space?
And I got all dusty? I must've passed
out, 'cause I woke up, and you were gone.
But Doctor Strange was there, right?
He was like,
"It's been five years.
Come on, they need us!"
And then he started doing the yellow
sparkly thing that he does all the time...
What are you doing?
This is nice.
Gamora?
I thought I lost you.
Don't... touch... me!
You missed the first time...
then you got them
both the second time.
This is the one? Seriously?
The choices were him, or a tree.
Cap, what do you want me to
do with this damn thing?
Get those stones as
far away as possible!
No!
We need to get them back
where they came from.
No way to get them back. Thanos
destroyed the quantum tunnel.
Hold on!
That wasn't our
only time machine.
Anyone see an ugly
brown van up there?
Yes!
But you're not gonna
like where it's parked.
Scott, how long you need
to get that thing working?
Maybe ten minutes.
Get it started. We'll
get the stones to you.
We're on it, Cap.
Hey.
You said one out of 14
million, we win, yeah?
Tell me this is it.
If I tell you what
happens, it won't happen.
You better be right.
It's a mess back here.
It's... it's dead.
- What?
- It's dead.
I have to hotwire it.
Where's Nebula?
She's not responding.
Sire!
Clint!
Give it to me.
You took everything from me.
I don't even know who you are.
You will.
I got it!
Activate Instant Kill!
Rain fire!
But Sire, our troops!
Just do it!
Is anyone else seeing this?
I got this.
I got this!
Okay, I don't got this.
- Help! Somebody, help!
- Hey, Queens. Heads up.
Hang on. I got you, kid.
Hey! Nice to meet---
Oh! My God!
What the hell is this?
Friday, what are they firing at?
Something just entered
the upper atmosphere.
Oh, yeah!
Danvers, we need an assist here.
Hi. I'm Peter Parker.
Hey, Peter Parker. Got
something for me?
I don't know how you're
gonna get through all that.
Don't worry.
She's got help.
I am... inevitable.
And I...
am...
... Iron Man.
Mr. Stark?
Hey...
Mr. Stark? Can you hear me?
It's Peter.
We won.
Mr. Stark....
We won, Mr. Stark.
We won and you did it, sir.
You did it.
I'm sorry... Tony...
- Hey.
- Hey, Pep...
- Friday?
- Life functions critical.
Tony.
Look at me.
We're gonna be okay.
You can rest now.
Everybody wants a
happy ending, right?
But it doesn't always
roll that way.
Maybe this time.
I'm hoping if you
play this back,
it's in celebration.
I hope families are reunited,
I hope we get it back,
and something like a
normal version of the
planet has been restored.
If there ever was such a thing.
God, what a world.
Universe, now.
If you told me ten years
ago that we weren't alone,
let alone, you know,
to this extent,
I mean, I wouldn't have been surprised.
But come on, you know?
That epic forces of darkness and
light that have come into play.
And, for better or worse,
that's the reality Morgan's gonna
have to find a way to grow up in.
So I found the time and I
recorded a little greeting...
In the case of an untimely death.
On my part.
Not that, death in any
time isn't untimely.
This time travel thing that we're
gonna try and pull off tomorrow,
it's, it's got me scratching
my head about this.
But then again, that's the hero gig.
Part of the journey is the end.
Everything's gonna work out
exactly the way it's supposed to.
I love you 3,000.
You know, I wish
there was a way...
that I could let her know.
That we won.
We did it.
She knows.
They both do.
How you doing, Squirt?
- Good.
- You good?
- Okay. You hungry?
- Mm-hmm.
- What do you want?
- Cheeseburgers.
You know your Dad
liked cheeseburgers?
I'm gonna get you all the
cheeseburgers you want.
Okay.
So, when can we expect you back?
- About that...
- Thor. Your people need a king.
No, they already have one.
That's funny.
You're being serious?
It's time for me to be
who I am rather than
who I'm supposed to be.
But you, you're a leader.
That's who you are.
You know I'd make a lot
of changes around here.
I'm counting on it.
Your Majesty.
What will you do?
I'm not sure.
For the first time in a
thousand years, I...
I have no path. I do
have a ride, though.
Move it or lose it, hairbag.
Well, here we are.
Tree! Good to see you.
Well...
The As-Guardians of the
Galaxy back together again.
Where to first?
Just so you know, this is my ship still.
I'm in charge.
I know. I know. Of
course, you are.
Of course.
See, you say of course, but
then you touch the map.
It makes you think that maybe you
didn't realize I was in charge.
Quail, that's your own
insecurities in there. Okay?
I'm merely trying to be of service.
An assistant.
- Quill.
- That's what I said.
You should fight one another
for the honor of leadership.
Sounds fair.
- It's not necessary.
- It's not.
Okay?
I got some blasters unless
you guys wanna use knives.
Oh, yes. Please, use knives.
I am Groot.
Not necessary.
There shall be no
knifing one another.
Everybody knows who's in charge.
It's me.
Yes, you! Of course!
Of course. Of course.
Remember...
You have to return the stones at
the exact moment you got them.
Or you're gonna open up a bunch
of nasty alternative realities.
Don't worry, Bruce.
Clip all the branches.
You know, I tried.
When I had the gauntlet, the stones,
I really tried to bring her back.
- I miss them, man.
- Me, too.
You know, if you want,
I can come with you.
You're a good man, Sam.
This one's on me, though.
Don't do anything stupid
'till I get back.
How can I? You're taking
all the stupid with you.
Gonna miss you, Buddy.
It's gonna be okay, Buck.
How long is this gonna take?
For him? As long as he
needs, For us, five seconds.
Ready, Cap?
Alright. We'll meet
you back here, okay?
You bet.
Going quantum. Three..
two.. one...
And returning in, five,
four, three, two, one...
Where is he?
I don't know. He blew right by his
time stamp. He should be here.
- Well, get him back.
- I'm trying.
- Get him the hell back.
- I said, I'm trying!
Sam.
Go ahead.
Cap?
Hi, Sam.
So did something go wrong,
or did something go right?
Well, after I put the
stones back, I thought...
Maybe I'll try some
of that life Tony was...
telling me to get.
How did that work out for you?
It was beautiful.
I'm happy for you. Truly.
Thank you.
Only thing bumming me
out is the fact I have
to live in a world
without Captain America.
Oh...
That reminds me...
Try it on.
How's it feel?
Like it's someone else's.
It isn't.
Thank you.
I'll do my best.
That's why it's yours.
You wanna tell me about her?
No.
No, I don't think I will.

- Can you see?
- Yeah.
- You sure?
- Mm-hmm.
How about now?
Can you see now?
All right.
Ready? Three fingers.
Nice!
- Nice throw, kiddo!
- Go.
Hey, you guys want mayo
or mustard, or both?
Who wants mayo on a hotdog?
Pardon your brothers. Two mustards, please!
Thanks, momma.
Got it.
Nate, mayo or mustard?
I want ketchup.
Mind your elbow...
Good job, Hawkeye!
Go get your arrow.
Hey, guys. Enough practice.
Soup's on.
All right. We're coming.
We're hungry.
Lila, let's go.
Lila?
Honey?
Babe?
Babe?
Babe?
Boys!
Boys?
Laura!
You don't need to do that,
because you're just
holding the position.
Come on.
That was close.
That's a goal. We're
now one a-piece.
I would like to try again.
We're tied up.
Feel the tension? It's fun.
That was terrible. Now you
have a chance to win.
And you won. Congratulations.
Fair game.
Good sport.
You had fun?
It was fun.
This thing on?
Hey, Miss Potts... Pep.
If you find this recording...
don't post it, on social media.
It's gonna be a real tear-jerker.
I don't know if you're
ever gonna see these.
I don't even know
if you're still...
Oh, God. I hope so...
Today is day 21... uh, 22.
You know, if it wasn't for
the existensial terror of
staring into the
literal void of space,
I'd say, I'm feeling
more better today.
The infection's run its course,
thanks to the blue meanie back there.
You'd love her. Very practical.
Only a tiny bit sadistic.
Some fuel cells were cracked during battle, but
we figured out a way to reverse the ion charge
to buy ourselves, about,
48 hours of playtime.
But it's now dead in the water.
We're 1,000 lightyears
from the nearest 7-11.
Oxygen will run out
tomorrow morning.
That'll be it.
And Pep, I...
I know I said no
more surprises, but
I gotta say I was really hoping
to pull off one last one.
But it looks like...
Well, you know what
it looks like.
Don't feel bad about this.
I mean actually if you
grovel for a couple weeks,
and then, move on
with enormous guilt.
I should probably lie down.
I'm gonna caress my
Please know that...
When I drift off, it will be
goodbye the whole time...
I'll think about you.
Because it's always you.
- Couldn't stop him.
- Neither could I.
I lost the kid.
Tony, we lost.
Is, umm...
Oh, my God!
It's okay.
It's been 23 days since
Thanos came to Earth.
World governments are in pieces.
The parts that are still working
are trying to take a census,
And it looks like he did...
He did exactly what he said he
was gonna do. Thanos wiped out..
...fifty percent of
all living creatures.
Where is he now? Where?
We don't know.
He just opened a portal
and walked through.
What's wrong with him?
He's pissed.
He thinks he failed.
Which of course he did, but there's a
lot of that goin' around, ain't there?
Honestly, at this exact second, I
thought you were a Build-A-Bear.
Maybe I am.
We've been hunting Thanos
for three weeks now.
Deep space scans, and
satellites, and we got nothing.
- Tony you fought him.
- Who told you that?
Didn't fight him.
No. He wiped my face
with a planet while a
Bleecker Street magician
gave away the stone.
- That's what happened. There was no fight...
- Okay.
Did he give you any clues?
Any coordinates, anything?
Pfft!
I saw this coming a few years back. I had
a vision. I didn't wanna believe it.
Thought I was dreaming.
- Tony I'm gonna need you to focus.
- And I needed you.
As in past tense. That trumps what
you need. It's too late, buddy.
Sorry.
You know what I need?
I need to shave.
- And I believe I rememeber telling
- Tony, Tony, Tony...
why that otherwise,
that what we needed was a suit of armor
around the world. Remember that?
Whether it impacted our precious
freedoms, or not. That's what we needed.
- Well that didn't work out, did it?
- I said we'd lose.
You said, "We'll do
that together, too."
Well guess what, Cap? We lost.
You weren't there.
But that's what we do, right?
Our best work after the fact?
We're the Avengers? We're the Avengers?
Not the Prevengers?
Okay. You made your point.
Just sit down, okay?
- No, no. Here's my... She's great, by the way.
- Tony, sit, sit down!
We need you. You're new blood.
Bunch of tired old mills...
I got nothing for you, Cap.
I got no coordinates,
no clues, no strategies,
no options...
Zero. Zip. Nada. No
trust, you liar...
Here, take this. You find
him and you put that on.
You hide.
- Tony!
- I'm fine. I...
Bruce gave him a sedative. He's gonna
probably be out for the rest of the day.
You guys take care of him. And I'll bring
an Bezurian elixir when I come back.
- Where are you going?
- To kill Thanos.
Hey.
You know we usually work
as a team here, and
between you and I we're
also a little fragile.
We realize up there is more your
territory but this is our fight, too.
- You even know where he is?
- I know people who might.
Don't bother.
I can tell you where Thanos is.
Thanos spent a long time
trying to perfect me.
Then when he worked, he
talked about his great plan.
Even disassembled, I
wanted to please him.
I'd ask, where would we go
once his plan was complete?
His answer was always the same.
To The Garden.
That's cute. Thanos has
a retirement plan.
So where is he, then?
When Thanos snapped his fingers,
Earth became ground zero for a power surge
of ridiculously cosmic proportions.
No one's ever seen anything like it...
until two days ago.
On this planet.
Thanos is there.
He used the stones again.
Hey, hey, hey...
We'd be going in
short-handed, you know?
- Look, he still got the stones, so...
- So let's get him.
- We use them to bring everyone back.
- Just like that?
Yeah. Just like that.
Even if there's a small chance
that we can undo this...
I mean, we owe it to everyone
who's not in this room to try.
If we do this, how do we know it's gonna
end any differently than it did before?
Because before, you
didn't have me.
Hey, new girl, everybody in this
room is about that superhero life.
And if you don't mind my asking, where
the hell have you been all this time?
There are a lot of other
planets in the universe.
And unfortunately, they
didn't have you guys.
I like this one.
Let's go get this
son of a bitch.
Okay. Who here hasn't
been to space?
You better not throw
up on my ship.
Approaching jump in 3.. 2.. 1.
I'll head down for recon.
- This is gonna work Steve.
- I know it will.
Because I don't know what
I'm gonna do if it doesn't.
No satellites, no ships, no armies,
no ground defenses of any kind.
It's just him.
Then that's enough.
Oh, no.
Where are they?
Answer the question.
The universe
required correction.
After that, the stones served
no purpose, beyond temptation.
You murdered trillions!
You should be grateful.
- Where are the stones?
- Gone.
- Reduced to atoms.
- You used them two days ago.
I used the stones to
destroy the stones.
It nearly killed me.
But the work is done.
It always will be.
I am inevitable.
We have to tear this place apart.
He has to be lying.
My father is many things.
A liar is not one of them.
Thank you, Daughter.
Perhaps I treated
you too harshly...
What... what did you do?
I went for the head.
So I, uh...
Went on a date the other day.
It's the first time in five years,
you know? Sit there, dinner...
I didn't know what
to talk about.
What did you talk about?
Same old crap, you know? How
things have changed, and...
My job, his job....
How much we miss the Mets.
Then things get quiet..
He cried as they were
serving the salads.
What about you?
I cried just before dessert.
But I'm seeing him
again tomorrow, so...
That's great.
You did the hardest part.
You took the jump, you
didn't know where you
were gonna come down.
And that's it. That's those little
brave baby steps you gotta take.
To try and become whole again.
To try and find purpose.
I went in the ice in '45 right
after I met the love of my life.
Woke up 70 years later.
You got to move on.
Got to move on.
The world is in our hands.
It's left to us guys.
And we got to do
something with it.
Otherwise...
Thanos should've
killed all of us.
What the hell?
Hope?
Kid! Hey, kid!
What the hell happened here?
My God...
No. Please. Please, please.
No, no, no...
Excuse me. Sorry.
No, Cassie, no.
No.
No, no.
Please, please,
please, please....
No, Cassie...
What?
Cassie?
Dad?
You're so big!
Yeah, we boarded that highly
suspect warship Danvers pinged.
It was an infectious
garbage scowl.
So, thanks for the hot tip.
- Well, you were closer.
- Yeah. And now we smell like garbage.
You get a reading
on those tremors?
It was a mild subduction
under the African plate.
Do we have a visual? How
are we handling it?
Nat, it's an earthquake
under the ocean.
We handle it by not handling it.
Carol, are we seeing
you here next month?
- Not likely.
- What, you gonna get another haircut?
Listen, fur-face. I'm
covering a lot of territory.
The things that are
happening on Earth are
happening everywhere, on
thousands of planets.
That's a good point.
That's a good point.
So you might not see
me for a long time.
All right. Uh, well...
This channel is always active.
So, anything goes sideways...
Anyone's making trouble
where they shouldn't...
- Comes through me.
- Okay.
All right.
Good luck.
- Where are you?
- Mexico.
The federales found a
room full of bodies.
Looks like a bunch of cartel guys. Never
even had the chance to get their guns off.
- It's probably a rival gang...
- Except it isn't.
It's definitely Barton.
What he's done here, what he's
been doing for the last few years,
I mean, the scene
that he left...
I gotta tell you, there's a part of
me that doesn't even wanna find him.
Will you find out where
he's going next?
Nat...
Please.
Okay.
You know I'd offer to clip your dinner
but you seem pretty miserable already.
You here to do your laundry?
And to see a friend.
Clearly, your friend is fine.
You know I saw a pod of whales
when I was coming up the bridge.
- In the Hudson?
- There's fewer ships, cleaner water.
You know, if you're about to tell
me to look on the bright side...
Um...
I'm about to hit you in the head
with a peanut butter sandwich.
Sorry. Force of habit.
You know I keep telling everybody
they should move on and... grow.
Some do.
But not us.
- If I move on, who does this?
- Maybe it doesn't need to be done.
I used to have nothing.
And then I got this.
This job.
This family.
And I was... I was
better because of it.
And even though...
they're gone...
Now, I'm still
trying to be better.
I think we both
need to get a life.
You first.
Oh... Hi. Hi!
Is anyone home?
This is Scott Lang.
We met a few years ago, at the airport?
In Germany?
I got really big and
I had my mask on.
- You wouldn't recognize me.
- Is this an old message?
Ant-Man? Ant-Man, I
know you know that.
It's the front gate.
I need to talk to you guys.
Scott.
- Are you okay?
- Yeah.
Have either of you guys ever
studied quantum physics?
Only in mid-conversation.
Alright. So...
Five years ago, right before...
Thanos,
I was in a place called
the quantum realm.
The quantum realm is like its
own microscopic universe.
To get in there, you have to be
incredibly small. Hope, she's my...
She... she was my...
She was supposed to pull me out.
And then Thanos happened, and
- I got stuck in there.
- Sorry. That must've been a long 5 years.
Yeah, but that's just it.
It wasn't.
For me it was five hours.
See, the rules of the quantum realm
aren't like they are up here.
Everything is unpredictable. Is that
anybody's sandwich? I'm starving.
Scott.
What are you talking about?
So...
What I'm saying is...
Time works differently
in the quantum realm.
The only problem is right now, we
don't have a way to navigate it.
But what if we did?
I can't stop thinking about it. What
if we could somehow control the chaos,
and we could navigate it? What if
there was a way that we can enter
the quantum realm at a certain
point in time but then
exit the quantum realm at
another point in time? Like...
Like before Thanos.
Wait, are you talking
about a time machine?
No. No, of course not.
No, not a time machine.
It's more like a...
Yeah, a time machine. I know it's crazy.
It's crazy.
But I can't stop thinking about it.
There's gotta be...
Some wa... It's crazy.
I get e-mails from a raccoon. So,
nothing sounds crazy anymore.
So who do we talk to about this?
Chow-time!
Morgoona.
Morgan H. Stark.
Want some lunch?
- Define lunch or be disintegrated.
- Okay.
You should not be
wearing that, okay?
That is part of a special anniversary
gift I'm making for Mom.
There you go. Are you
thinking about lunch?
Want a handful of crickets?
- No.
- That's what you want.
- How did you find this?
- Garage.
Really?
- Were you looking for it?
- No.
I found it, though.
You like going to the garage, huh?
So does Daddy.
It's fine actually. Mom never
wears anything I wear.
Now, we know what
it sounds like...
Tony after everything you've seen,
is anything really impossible...
Quantum fluctuation messes
with the Planck scale,
which then triggers the Deutsch
proposition. Can we agree on that?
Thank you.
In Layman's terms, it means
you're not coming home.
- I did.
- No.
You accidentally survived. It's a---
It's a billion-to-one
cosmic fluke.
And now you wanna pull a...
What do you call it?
- A time heist?
- Yeah. Time heist.
Of course. Why didn't we
think of this before?
Oh! Because it's laughable?
Because it's a pipedream?
The stones are in the past. We
can go back and we can get them.
We can snap our own fingers.
We can bring everybody back.
Or screw it up worse than
he already has, right?
I don't believe we would.
Gotta say this. Sometimes, I
miss that giddy optimism.
However, high hopes won't
help if there's no logical,
tangible, way for me to safely
execute said time heist.
I believe the most likely outcome
will be our collective demise.
Not if we strictly follow
the rules of time travel.
That means no talking to our past selves,
no betting on sporting events...
I'm gonna stop you
right there, Scott.
Are you seriously telling
me that your plan to
save the universe is based
on Back to the Future?
- No.
- Good. You had me worried there.
'Cause that'd be horseshit. That's
not how quantum physics works.
Tony...
We have to take a stand.
We did stand. And
yet, here we are.
I know you got a lot on the line.
You got a wife, a daughter.
But I lost someone very important to me.
A lot of people did.
And now, now, we have a chance to bring
her back. To bring everyone back.
And you're telling me
that you won't even...
That's right, Scott.
I won't. Leave it.
Got a kid.
Mommy told me to
come and save you.
Good job. I'm saved.
I wish you'd come here to
ask me something else.
Anything else. Honestly, I
missed you guys, it was...
- Oh, and table's set for six.
- Tony, I get it.
And I'm happy for you.
I really am.
But this is a second chance.
I got my second chance
right here, Cap.
I can't roll the dice again.
If you don't talk shop,
you can stay for lunch.
- He's scared.
- He's not wrong.
Yeah, but I mean,
what are we gonna do?
We need him. What,
are we gonna stop?
No. I wanna do it right.
We're gonna need a
really big brain.
Bigger than his?
Come on. I feel like I'm the only
one eating. Try some of that.
Have some eggs.
I'm so confused.
- These are confusing times.
- Right. No, no...
- That's not what I meant. I...
- No, I get it.
I'm kidding! I know. It's crazy.
- I'm wearing shirts now.
- Yeah! How? Why?
Five years ago we
got our asses beat.
Except it was worse for me.
Because I lost twice.
First, Hulk lost. Then Banner lost.
Then, we all lost.
- No one blamed you, Bruce.
- I did.
For years I've been
treating the Hulk like he's
some kind of disease,
something to get rid of.
But then I started looking
at him as the cure.
Eighteen months in a gamma lab. I put
the brains and the brawn together.
And now look at me.
Best of both worlds.
- Excuse me, Mr. Hulk?
- Yes?
- Can we get a photo?
- 100%, little person.
Come on, step on up. You mind?
Oh.
- Say "green."
- Green.
Greeeen.
- Did you get that?
- That's good.
Don't you wanna grab one with me?
I'm Ant-Man.
They're Hulk fans.
They don't know Ant-Man.
- Nobody does.
- Wait, no, no, he wants to...
You want to take a
picture with him, right?
He's even saying no he doesn't.
I get it.
I don't want it either. I don't
want a picture with them.
- He's gonna feel bad.
- Sorry.
- They said they'd do it.
- I don't want it anymore.
- You'd feel bad...
- Take the goddamn phone.
Thank you, Mr. Hulk.
No, it's great, kids.
Thank you very much.
- Hulk out!
- Bruce.
- Dab.
- Bruce.
Listen to your Mom.
She knows better.
- About we were saying...
- Right.
The whole time travel do-over?
Guys, it's outside of
my area of expertise.
Well, you pulled this off.
I remember a time when that
seemed pretty impossible, too.
Look at a mod inspiration,
let me see what checks out.
So, recommend one last sim before
we pack it in for the night.
This time, in the shape of a
mobius strip, inverted. Please?
Processing...
Give me that eigenvalue. That, particle
factoring, and spectral decomp.
- Gotta take a second.
- Just a moment.
And don't worry if it doesn't pan out.
I'm just kinda...
Model rendered.
Shit!
Shit!
What are you doing
up, Little Miss?
- Shit.
- No. We don't say that.
Only Mommy says that word. She
coined it, it belongs to her.
Why you up?
'Cause I got some important shit
going on here. What do you think?
No, I got something on my mind.
I got something on my mind.
- Was it Juice Pops?
- Sure was.
That's extortion.
Great minds think alike. Juice
Pops, exactly was on...
my mind.
You done? Yeah? Now you are.
- That face, goes there.
- Tell me a story.
A story.
Once upon a time, a little
girl went to bed. The end.
That ain't the whole story.
Come on, that's your
favorite story.
I love you tons.
I love you 3,000.
Wow.
3,000. That's crazy.
Go to bed. Or I'll
sell all your toys.
Night-night.
Not that it's a competition,
but she loves me 3,000.
You were somewhere in
the low 6 to 900 range.
- What you reading?
- Just a book on composting.
What's new with composting?
- Just ....
- I figured it out...
by the way.
You know, just so we're talking
about the same thing...
Time travel.
What?
Wow.
That's...
Amazing, and.... terrifying.
That's right.
- I got really lucky.
- Yeah. I know.
- A lot of people didn't.
- No, I can't help everybody.
- It sorta seems like you can.
- Not if I stop.
I can put a pin in it
right now, and stop.
Tony...
trying to get you to stop has been one
of the few failures of my entire life.
I sometimes feel I should put it in a locked
box and drop it at the bottom of a lake...
...go to bed.
But would you be able to rest?
Okay, here we go. Time
travel test number one.
Scott, fire up the, uhh...
The van thing.
Breakers are set. Emergency
generators are on standby.
Good. 'Cause if we blow the grid, I don't
wanna lose Tiny here in the 1950's.
- Excuse me?
- He's kidding.
You can't say things like that.
Just... it was, just a bad joke.
- You were kidding, right?
- I have no idea.
We're talking about time travel here.
Either it's all a joke, or none of it is.
We're good! Get your helmet on.
Scott, I'm gonna send you
back a week, but you'll walk
around for an hour, then bring
you back in 10 seconds.
- Makes sense?
- Perfectly not confusing.
Good luck, Scott. You got this.
You're right. I do,
Captain America.
On the count of three.
3.. 2.. 1..
Guys? This doesn't feel right.
- What's going on? Hold on.
- Who is that?
- Is that Scott?
- Yes, it's Scott!
Ooh! My back!
- Can you bring him back?
- I'm working on it!
A baby.
- It's Scott.
- As a baby!
Bring Scott back.
When I say kill the
power, kill the power.
And... kill it!
Somebody peed my pants.
I don't know if it was
"baby" me or "old" me.
Or, just "me" me.
Time travel!
What?
I see this as an absolute win.
Why the long face?
Let me guess. He
turned into a baby.
Among other things, yeah.
What are you doing here?
That's the EPR paradox.
Instead of pushing Lang through time, you
might've wound up pushing time through Lang.
It's tricky. Dangerous. Somebody
coulda cautioned you against it.
- You did.
- Oh, did I?
Thank God, I'm here.
Regardless, I fixed it.
A fully functioning
time-space GPS.
I just want peace.
Turns out, resentment is
corrosive, and I hate it.
Me, too.
We got a shot at getting
these stones, but I
gotta tell you my
priority is to bring back
what we lost? I hope, yes.
Keep what I found? I
have to, at all costs.
And, maybe not die
trying will be nice.
Sounds like a deal.
- Tony, I don't know...
- Why? He made it for you.
Plus, honestly I have to get it out the
garage before Morgan takes it sledding.
Thank you, Tony.
Will you keep that a little quietly?
Didn't bring one for the whole team.
- We are getting, the whole team, yeah?
- We're working on that right now.
- Hey, humie! Where's big green?
- Kitchen. I think.
- That's awesome.
- Rodent, careful on re-entry.
There's an idiot on
the landing zone.
Oh, God!
What's up, regular-sized man?
Kind of a step down from a golden palace
for an Avenger highness or whatnot.
Hey, have a little compassion, pal.
First, they've lost Asgard,
then half the people. They're probably
just happy they have a home.
You shouldn't have come!
Valkyrie!
Great to see you, Angry Girl.
I think I liked you better
either of the other ways.
- This is Rocket.
- How you doin'?
- He won't see you.
- That bad, huh?
We only see him once a month,
when he comes in for...
...supplies.
- It's that bad.
- Yeah.
What the...
Woo! Something died in here.
Hello? Thor?
Are you here about the cable?
The Cinemax ran out two weeks ago,
and, sports were all kind of fuzzy...
Boys! Oh, my God!
My God! How have you been?
Come here, you little rascal!
No, I'm good! I'm good.
That's not necessary!
Hulk, you know my friends,
Miek, Korg, right?
- Hey, boys!
- Hey, guys. Long time no see.
Beer's on the bucket. Feel
free to log on to the wi-fi.
No password, obviously.
Thor, he's back. That kid on the TV
who's called me a dickhead again.
- Noobmaster.
- Yeah, Noobmaster69.
Noobmaster. Hey, it's Thor again.
You know, the God of Thunder?
Listen, buddy. If you don't log off
this game immediately I'm gonna fly
home to your house, come down to
that basement you're hiding in,
rip off your arms then
shove them up your butt!
Oh, that's right. Yes, go cry to
your father, you little weasel!
Thank you, Thor.
Let me know if he
bothers you again, okay?
Thank you very much. I will.
So you guys want a drink?
What are you drinking?
We have beer, tequila,
all sorts of things.
Buddy, you all right?
Yes, I'm fine! Why,
don't I look all right?
You look like melted ice cream.
So, what's up?
We need your help. There might be
a chance we could fix everything.
What, like the cable? 'Cause that's
been driving me bananas for weeks.
Like Thanos.
Don't say that name.
Um, yeah. We don't actually
say that name in here.
Please take your hand off me.
Now, I know that...
guy might scare you.
Why would I be? Why would, why
would I be scared of that guy?
I'm the one who killed
that guy, remember?
Anyone else here
killed that guy?
Nope. Didn't think so.
Korg, why don't you, tell everybody
who chopped Thanos' big head off.
Umm... Stormbreaker?
Now, who's swinging
Stormbreaker?
I get it. You're in a rough spot, okay?
I've been there myself.
You wanna know who
helped me out of it?
I don't know. Is it... Natasha?
It was you.
You helped me.
Why don't you ask the,
Asgardians down there,
how much my help was worth.
The ones that are left, anyway.
I think we can bring them back.
Stop. Just, stop...
I know you think I'm down here wallowing in
my own self-pity, waiting to be rescued and
and saved. But I'm fine, okay?
We're fine, aren't we?
Nah, all good here, mate!
So, whatever it is that
you're offering, we're
not into it, don't care,
couldn't care less.
Goodbye.
We need you, pal.
There's beer on the ship.
What kind?
It's him! He's after Akihiko!
We never did anything to you!
You're done hurting people.
You're crazy!
Wait! Help me!
What I want...
You can't give me.
You shouldn't be here.
Neither should you.
I've got a job to do.
Is that what you're
calling this?
Killing all these people isn't
gonna bring your family back.
We found something.
A chance, maybe...
Don't.
Don't what?
Don't give me hope.
I'm sorry I couldn't
give it to you sooner.
Drifting left. On the
side there, Lebowski.
- Ratchet, how's it going?
- It's Rocket.
Take it easy. You're only
a genius on Earth, pal.
Yup.
Time travel suit? Not bad.
Hey, hey, hey. Easy, easy!
- I'm being very careful.
- No, you're being very Hulky.
- I'm being careful.
- These are Pym particles, all right?
And ever since Hank Pym got snapped
out of existence, this is it.
This is what we have. We're
not making any more.
- Scott, calm down.
- Sorry.
We've got enough for
one round trip, each.
That's it. No do-overs.
Plus, two test runs.
One test run.
All right. I'm not
ready for this.
I'm game.
I'll do it.
Clint, now you're gonna feel
a little discombobulated
from the chronoshift.
Don't worry about it.
Wait a second, let me
ask you something.
If we can do this, you know, go
back in time, why don't we just
find baby Thanos, you know?
And...
- First of all, that's horrible.
- It's Thanos.
And secondly, time doesn't work that way.
Changing the past doesn't change the future.
Look, we go back, we get the
stones before Thanos gets them...
Thanos doesn't have the stones.
Problem solved.
- Bingo.
- That's not how it works.
- Well, that's what I heard.
- What? By who? Who told you that?
Star Trek, Terminator,
TimeCop, Time After Time,
- Quantum Leap.
- A Wrinkle in Time,
- Somewhere in Time,
- Hot Tub Time Machine.
Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. Basically,
any movie that deals with time travel.
Die Hard? No, it's not...
This is known.
I don't know why everyone believes
that, but that isn't true.
Think about it: If you travel to the
past, that past becomes your future.
And your former present
becomes the past.
Which can't now be changed
by your new future...
Exactly.
So Back to the Future's
a bunch of bullshit?
All right, Clint. We're going in 3..
2.. 1...
Cooper?
- Where are my headphones?
- Lila?
Lila! No!
Dad?
Dad?
Hey, hey. Look at me. You okay?
Yeah.
It worked.
It worked.
Okay, so the "how" works.
Now we gotta figure out the
"when," and the "where."
Almost everyone in this
room has had an encounter
with at least one of the
six Infinity Stones.
Well, I'd subtitute the
word 'encounter' for 'damn
near been killed by one of
the six Infinity Stones.'
I haven't. I don't even know what
the hell you're all talking about.
Regardless, we only have enough Pym
Particles for one round trip each,
and these stones have been in a lot of
different places throughout history.
Our history. So, not a lot of
convenient spots to just drop in.
- Which means we have to pick our targets.
- Correct.
So. Let's start
with the Aether.
Thor, what do you know?
Is he asleep?
Where to start? Umm...
The Aether, first,
is not a stone.
Someone's called it a stone before.
Ahem...
It's more of a... an angry
sludge, sort of thing. So...
Someone's gonna need to amend
that, and stop saying that.
Here's an interesting
story, though.
About the Aether. My
grandafther, many years
ago, had to hide the stone
from the Dark Elves.
Scary beings. So Jane...
Oh, there she is. That's Jane...
She's... an old flame of mine.
She... she stuck her hand
inside a rock this one time...
and then the Aether stuck
itself inside her.
And, she became very, very sick.
So I had to take her to
Asgard, which is where I'm from.
And we had to try and fix her.
We were dating at the time, you see. I
got to introduce her to my Mother...
who's dead, and umm....
Oh, you know. Jane and I aren't
even dating anymore, so...
These things happen though, you know.
Nothing lasts forever.
- The only thing that...
- Why don't you come sit down.
I'm not done yet. The only thing that
is permanent in life, is impermanence.
Awesome.
Eggs? Breakfast?
No. I'd like a Bloody Mary.
Quill said he stole the
Power Stone from Morag.
- Is that a person?
- Morag's a planet.
Quill was a person.
Like a planet? Like
in outer space?
Oh, look. It's like a little
puppy, all happy and everything.
Do you wanna go to space? You
wanna go to space, puppy?
I'll take you to space.
- Thanos found the Soul Stone on Vormir.
- What is Vormir?
A dominion of death, at the very
center of Celestial existence.
It's where... Thanos
murdered my sister.
Noted.
- That Time Stone guy...
- Doctor Strange.
Yeah, what kind
of doctor was he?
- Neurostuff meets rabbit from a hat.
- Nice place in the village, though.
- Yeah. Sullivan Street.
- Hmm... Bleecker.
Wait, he lived in New York?
- No. He lived in Toronto.
- Yeah, not Bleecker. It's Sullivan.
Guys, if you pick the right year,
there are three stones in New York.
Shut the front door!
All right. We have a plan.
Six stones, three
teams, one shot.
Five years ago, we lost.
All of us.
We lost friends...
We lost family...
We lost a part of ourselves.
Today, we have a chance
to take it all back.
You know your teams, you
know your missions.
Get the stones, get them back.
One round trip each. No mistakes.
No do-overs.
Most of us are going
somewhere we know.
But it doesn't mean we
should know what to expect.
Be careful. Look out
for each other.
This is the fight of our lives.
And we're gonna win.
Whatever it takes.
Good luck.
- He's pretty good at that.
- Right?
All right. You heard the man.
Stroke those keys, jelly green.
Tractors engaged.
You promise to bring that
back in one piece, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah. Okay.
- I'll do my best.
- As promises go, that was pretty lame.
See you in a minute.
All right, we all have our assignments.
Two stones uptown, one stone, down.
Stay low. Keep an
eye on the clock.
Feel free to smash if
things don't go your way.
I think it's gratuitous,
but whatever.
I'd be careful going that way.
We just had the floors waxed.
Ma'am, I'm looking
for Doctor Strange.
You're about... five
years too early.
Stephen Strange is currently performing
surgery about twenty blocks that way.
What do you want from him?
That, actually.
Ah.
- I'm afraid not.
- Sorry, but I wasn't asking.
- You don't wanna do this.
- You're right. I don't.
But I need that stone, and
I don't have time to...
Let's start over, shall we?
That's Jane.
All right.
Here's the deal, Tubby:
You're gonna charm her and I'm
gonna poke her with this thing
and extract the Reality Stone
and get gone, lickety-split.
I'll be right back, okay? There's a
wine cellar, that's just down there.
My father used to fish
with a barrel of ale.
- I'll see if the cellar has a couple of...
- Hey! Aren't you drunk enough already?
Who's the fancy broad?
It's my Mother.
She dies today.
Oh. That's today?
I can't do this.
I can't do this.
I shouldn't be here. I shouldn't have come.
This was a bad idea.
- Come here.
- No, no, no. I think I'm having...
- I'm having a panic attack.
- Come here. Right here.
You think you're the only one who lost
people? What do you think we're doing here?
I lost the only
family I ever had.
Quill, Groot, Drax, the chick
with the antenna, all gone.
Now, I get you miss your Mom.
But she's gone. Really gone.
And there are plenty of people
who are only kinda gone.
But you can help them.
So is it too much to ask that you
brush the crumbs outta your beard,
make schmoopy talk to Pretty
Pants, and when she's not looking,
suck out the Infinity Stone and
help me get my family back?
Okay.
- Are you crying?
- No...
Yes!
Get it together!
You can do this.
You can do this.
All right?
- Yes, I can.
- Good.
I can do this.
I can't do this.
Alright, Heartbreaker. She's alone.
This is our shot.
Thor?
Thor!
Alright. Bring it down low.
Right on that line. That's it.
Down, down.
Hey, can we hurry it up?
Guys, chop-chop. Come on.
We're on the clock.
All that, is really helpful.
- Take care, okay?
- Yeah.
Take that stone and come back.
No messing around.
- Hey.
- You got this.
- Let's get it done.
- Yes, sir.
See you back.
You guys watch each other's six.
Yeah.
The coordinates for
Vormir are laid in.
All they have to do
is not fall out.
We're a long way from Budapest.
Okay, so, uhh...
We just wait around for this
Quill guy to show up and
then he leads us to the
Power Stone, is that it?
Let's take cover.
We're not the only ones in
2014 looking for the stones.
Wait a minute, what are
you talking about right
now? Who else is looking
for these stones?
My father, my sister...
- and me.
- And you?
Where are you right now?
- You're welcome.
- I didn't ask for your help.
And yet, you always need it.
Get up.
- Father wants us back on the ship.
- Why?
He's found an Infinity Stone.
- Where?
- On a planet called Morag.
Father's plan is
finally in motion.
- One stone isn't six, Nebula.
- It's a start.
If he gets all of them...
Ronan's located the Power Stone.
I'm dispatching you to his ship.
- He won't like that.
- His alternative is death, then.
Ronan's obsession
clouds his judgement.
We will not fail you, Father.
No, you won't.
I swear...
I will make you proud.
We just, wait around for
this Quill guy to show up,
and then he leads us to the
Power Stone, is that it?
Let's take cover.
We're not the only ones in
2014 looking for the stones.
- Who was that?
- I don't know...
My head is splitting...
I don't know...
Her synaptic drive was
probably damaged in battle.
Bring her to my ship.
Got to hustle, Cap. Things look like
they're just about wrapped up here.
Got it. I'm approaching
the elevator now.
If it's all the same to you...
I'll have that drink now.
All right. Good one. No standing around,
I'm closing up this door for later.
By the way, feel
free to clean up.
Ugh, Mr. Rogers. I almost
forgot that that suit
- did nothing for your ass.
- No one asked you to look.
I think you look great, Cap.
As far as I'm concerned,
that's America's ass.
- Uhh, magic wand?
- STRIKE team's coming to secure it.
We can take that
off your hands.
By all means.
- Careful with that thing!
- Unless you want your mind erased.
- Not in a fun way.
- We promise to be careful.
- Who are these guys?
- They are SHIELD...
Well, actually Hydra. But,
we didn't know that yet.
Seriously, you didn't? I mean...
they look like bad guys.
You're small, but
you're talking loud.
On my way down to
coordinate search and rescue.
On my way down to
coordinate search and rescue!
I mean, honestly! How do
you think you'll be...
Shut up.
All right, you're up, little buddy.
There's our stone.
Alright. Flick me.
- Whoa! Whoa, whoa.
- Hey! Buddy.
What do you think? Maximum
occupancy has been reached.
- Take the stairs!
- Yeah. Stop. Stop!
Take the stairs.
Take the stairs!
All right, Cap. I got our scepter in the
elevator just passing the 80th floor.
On it.
- Head to the lobby.
- Alright. I'll see you there.
Evidence secure. We're
en route to Dr. List.
No. No hitches at all, Mr.
Secretary.
Captain. I thought you were
coordinating search and rescue?
Change of plans.
Hey, Cap.
Rumlow.
I just got a call from the Secretary. I'm
gonna be running point on the scepter.
Sir? I don't understand.
We got word there may be
an attempt to steal it.
Sorry, Cap.
I can't give you the scepter.
- I'm gonna have to call the Director.
- That's okay. Trust me.
Hail Hydra.
So many stairs!
Thumbelina, do you copy?
I've got eyes on the prize.
- It is go-time.
- Bombs away.
Is, is that Axe body spray?
Yeah, I had a can just
for emergencies. Relax.
- Can we focus, please?
- I'm going inside you. Now.
May I ask you
where you're going?
To lunch and then Asgard.
I'm sorry, you are?
Alexander Pierce. He's the man, one
of the folks behind Nick Fury.
My friends call me Mr. Secretary.
I'm gonna have to ask you to
turn that prisoner over to me.
- Loki will be answering to Odin himself.
- Oh, he's gonna answer to us.
Odin can have what's left. And
I'm gonna need that case.
That's been SHIELD property
for over 70 years.
Hand over the case, Stark.
All right, move it, Stuart Little. Things
are getting dicey up here. Let's go.
I'm not gonna argue who's got the
higher authority here, all right?
You promise me you won't die?
You're only giving me a
mild cardiac dysrythmia.
That doesn't sound mild.
I need the case.
I know you got a lotta pull.
I'm just saying...
Okay. Then give me the case.
Do it, Lang!
- Get your hands off!
- Window's closing. Pull my pin!
Here goes!
- Stark?
- Stark!
Look, he's convulsing.
Give him air!
- Medic!
- Medic!
You got some help!
Stark, you--- your
chest machine?
Breathe! Breathe!
Good job. Meet me in the alley.
I'm gonna grab a quick slice.
No stairs!
You'll be fine, Stark.
Stay with us!
I'll try something, okay? I have
no idea if it's gonna work.
Yes!
That worked a treat.
That was so crazy!
I had no idea if
that was gonna work.
- The case...
- The case. It's, uhh...
Where's the case? Where's Loki?
Loki!
- That wasn't supposed to happen, was it?
- Oh, we blew it.
Loki!?
Tony, what's going on?
Tell me you found that cube.
Oh, you gotta be shitting me.
I have eyes on Loki. 14th floor.
I'm not Loki.
And I don't wanna hurt you.
I can do this all day.
Yeah, I know. I know.
Where did you get this?
Bucky... is... alive!
What?
That is America's ass.
- Please, please!
- I'm sorry. I can't help you, Bruce.
If I give up the Time Stone to help
your reality, I'm dooming my own.
With all due respect, I'm not sure
the science really supports that.
The Infinity Stones create what you
experience as the flow of time.
Remove one of the stones,
and that flow splits.
Now this may benefit your reality.
But my new one, not so much.
In this new branched reality, without our
chief weapon against the forces of darkness,
our world will be overrun.
Millions will suffer.
So, tell me, doctor, can your
science prevent all that?
No. But we can erase it.
Because once we're done with the stones, we
can return each one into its own timeline
at the moment it was taken.
So, chronologically...
In that reality....
it never left.
Yes, but you're leaving out
the most important part.
In order to return the
stones, you have to survive.
We will. I will. I promise.
I can't risk this
reality on a promise.
It's the duty, of the Sorcerer
Supreme to protect the Time Stone.
Then why the hell did
Strange give it away?
- What did you say?
- Strange. He gave it away.
He gave it to Thanos.
- Willingly?
- Yes.
- Why?
- I have no idea. Maybe he made a mistake.
Or I did.
Strange was meant to
be the best of us.
So he must've done
it for a reason.
I fear you might be right.
Thank you.
I'm counting on you, Bruce.
We all are.
Run diagnostics.
Show me her memory file.
Sire, the file appears entangled.
It was a memory, but not hers.
There's another consciousness
sharing her network.
Another Nebula.
Impossible.
This duplicate carries a time stamp...
from nine years in the future.
Where is this other Nebula?
In our solar system.
On Morag.
- Can you access her?
- Yes. The two are linked.
Search the duplicate's
memories, for Infinity Stones.
And these stones have been in a lot of
different places throughout history.
Our history. So, not a lot of
convenient spots to just drop in.
- Which means we have to pick our targets.
- Correct.
Freeze image.
Terrans.
Avengers.
Unruly wretches. What's
that reflection?
Amplify this, Maw.
I don't understand.
- Two Nebulas.
- No. The same Nebula.
From two different times.
Set course for Morag. Scan
the duplicate's memories.
I want to see everything.
My ladies, I'll see you after.
Go on.
- What are you doing?
- Ahh!
You're better off leaving the
sneaking to your brother.
Yeah, I was simply just
going for a walk, and uh...
What are you wearing?
I always wear this. This
is one of my favorites.
What's wrong with your eye?
Oh, my eye. That's... you
remember the Battle of Haroquin?
When I got hit in the
face with a broadsword?
You're not the Thor I
know at all, are you?
Yes, I am.
The future hasn't been
kind to you, has it?
I didn't say I'm
from the future.
I was raised by witches, boy.
I see with more than
eyes, and you know that.
I am totally, totally
from the future!
Yes, you are.
- I really need to talk to you.
- We can talk.
His head was over there...
His body over there...
What was the point.
I was too late.
I was just standing there.
- Some idiot with an ax.
- You're no idiot.
You're here aren't you? Seeking counsel
from the wisest person in Asgard.
- I guess, yeah.
- Idiot? No.
- A failure? Absolutely.
- That's a little bit harsh.
You do know what
that makes you?
Just like everyone else.
I'm not supposed to be
like everyone else, am I?
Everyone fails at who they
are supposed to be, Thor.
The measure of a
person, of a hero
is how well they succeed
at being who they are.
I really missed you, Mum.
Thor! I got it!
Get that rabbit!
- Ma, I have to tell you something.
- No, son. You don't.
You're here to repair
your future, not mine.
- But this is about your future.
- It's none of my business.
Hey.
You must be Mom.
I got the thing. Come
on, we got to move.
- I wish we had more time.
- This was a gift.
And you're going to be the
man you're meant to be.
- I love you, Mom.
- I love you.
And eat a salad.
- Come on. We gotta go.
- Goodbye.
- Three... two...
- No, wait!
Wh- what am I looking at?
Oh, sometimes it takes a second.
I'm still worthy.
Oh, boy.
Goodbye, Mom.
So he's an idiot?
What's that?
The tool of a thief.
Whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa...
This is the part where spikes come out,
with skeletons on the end and everything...
What are you talking about?
When you break into a place called
the temple of the Power Stone,
There's gonna be a bunch of booby
traps--- Okay. All right. Go ahead.
I wasn't always like this.
Me either.
But we work with
what we got, right?
Sync up.
Three.. two.. one...
You murdered trillions!
You should be grateful.
- Where are the stones?
- Gone.
- Reduced to atoms.
- You used them two days ago.
I used the stones to destroy the stones.
It nearly killed me.
But the work is done.
It always will be.
I am inevitable.
- What did you do to them?
- Nothing. Yet.
They're not trying to stop something
I'm going to do in our time.
They're trying to undo something
I've already done in theirs.
The stones...
I found them all.
I won.
Tipped the cosmic
scales to balance.
This is your future.
It's my destiny.
My father is many things. A
liar is not one of them.
Thank you, Daughter.
Perhaps I treated
you too harshly...
And that, is destiny fulfilled.
Sire, your Daughter...
No...
...is a traitor.
That's not me. It's not. I could never...
I would never betray you. Never.
I know.
And you'll have the
chance to prove it.
No...
He knows!
Barton? Barton, come in.
Romanoff? Come in, we have a problem.
Come on!
Come in, we have a prob....
Thanos knows.
Thanos...
Cap...
Sorry, buddy.
We got a problem.
Huh. Yeah, we do.
- Well, what are we gonna do now?
- You know what, give me a break, Steve.
I just got hit in the
head with a Hulk.
You said that we had one shot.
This, this was our shot.
We shot it. It's shot. Six stones or nothing.
Six stones or nothing.
You're repeating yourself, you know that?
You're repeating yourself.
You're repeating yourself.
You're repeating yourself.
- No!
- Come on.
You never wanted a time heist, you
went on board with the time heist...
- I dropped the ball.
- You ruined the time heist.
- Is that what I did?
- Yeah!
Are there any other options
with the Tesseract?
No, no, no. There's
no other options.
There's no do-overs. We're
not going anywhere else.
We have one particle left. Each.
That's it, alright? We use that...
Bye, bye. You're not going home.
Yeah, well if we don't try...
then no one else is
going home, either.
I got it.
There's another way. To retake the
Tesseract and acquire new particles.
We'll stroll down memory lane.
Military installation, Garden State.
Why were they both there?
They were there at a...I've
a vaguely exact idea.
How vague?
What are you talking about?
Where are we going?
- I know for a fact they were there...
- Who's they?
- What are we doing?
- And I know how I know.
Guys, what's up? What is it?
Well, it looks like
we're improvising.
- Right.
- What are we improvising?
Scott, get this back
to the compound.
Suit up.
What's in New Jersey?
- 0-4, 0-4...
- Uhh, 0-7.
- 0-7.
- Excuse me...
1-9-7-0.
- Are you sure?
- Cap. Captain. Steve, sorry.
America. Rogers. Look,
if you do this,
and this doesn't work,
you're not coming back.
Thanks for the pep
talk, pissant.
You trust me?
I do.
Your call.
Here we go.
Hey, man!
Make love, not war!
Clearly, you weren't
actually born here, right?
The idea of me was.
Right. Well, imagine
you're SHIELD, running a
quasi-fascistic
intelligence organization.
Where do you hide it?
In plain sight.
Good luck on your
mission, Captain.
Good luck on your
project, doctor.
You're new here?
Not exactly.
Gotcha.
Back in the game.
Arnim, you in there?
Arnim?
Hey!
The door's this way, pal.
Oh, yeah.
I'm looking for Dr. Zola.
Have you seen him?
Yeah, no, Dr. Zol... No,
I haven't seen a soul.
Pardon me.
Do I know you?
No, sir. I'm, a...
visitor from MIT.
Huh. MIT.
Got a name?
Howard.
Well that'll be
easy to remember.
Howard...
...Potts.
Well, I'm Howard Stark.
Hi.
Shit. Now, don't pull it.
Yeah...
You look a little green around
the gills there, Potts.
I'm fine. Just, long hours.
Wanna get some air?
- Hello, Potts.
- Yeah. That would be swell.
- That way.
- Okay.
Need your briefcase?
You're not one of
those, are ya, Potts?
- Hello.
- Dr. Pym?
That would be the number
that you called. Yes.
This is Capt. Stevens
from shipping.
- We have a package for you.
- Bring it up.
Well, that's the thing, sir.
We can't.
I'm confused. I thought
that was your job.
Well, it's just... Sir,
the box is glowing and,
to be honest, some of our mail
guys aren't feeling that great.
They didn't know
better, did they?
Yeah, they did. You
better get down here.
Excuse me. Out of the way!
So, flowers and sauerkraut. You
got a big date tonight?
My wife's expecting.
And, uh... Too much
time in the office.
- Congratulations.
- Thanks. Hold this, will you?
Yeah, sure.
- How far along is she?
- I don't know... uh...
She's at the point where she can't
stand the sound of my chewing.
I guess I'll be eating
dinner in the pantry again.
I have a little girl.
A girl would be nice. Less of a chance
she'd turn out exactly like me.
What'd be so awful about that?
Let's just say that the greater
good has rarely outweighed
my own self-interests.
- And you've never seen these 2 men before?
- No, I've got an eye for this.
- The 2 of them looked fishy.
- Can you describe them?
- Well, one of them had a hippie beard.
- Hippie? Like Bee Gees or Mungo Jerry?
Definitely Mungo Jerry.
Yeah, this is Chesler. I
need every available MPs
on sub-level 6. We have
a potential breach.
So, where are you
at with names?
Well, if it's a boy,
my wife likes Almanzo.
Might wanna let that stew on.
You got time.
Let me ask you a question.
When your kid was born...
- were you nervous?
- Wildly. Yeah.
Did you feel qualified?
Like you had any idea how to
successfully operate that thing?
I literally pieced it
together as I went along,
I thought about what
my Dad did, and...
My old man, he never met a problem
he couldn't solve with a belt.
I thought my Dad
was tough on me.
And now, looking back, I just
remember the good stuff, you know.
- He did drop the odd pearl.
- Yeah? Like what?
"No amount of money ever
bought a second of time."
Smart guy.
He did his best.
Let me tell you. That
kid's not even here yet
and, there's nothing I
wouldn't do for him.
Good to meet you, Potts.
Yeah, Howard...
Everything's gonna be all right.
Thank you for everything...
...you've done for
this country.
Jarvis.
Have we ever met that guy?
Seems very familiar.
Weird beard, though.
- You're weak.
- I'm you.
You can stop this.
You know you want to.
Did you see what
happens in the future?
Thanos finds the Soul Stone.
You wanna know
how he does that?
You wanna know, what
he does to you?
That's enough.
You disgust me.
But, that doesn't
mean you're useless.
How do I look?
Wow...
Under different circumstances,
this would be totally awesome.
I bet the raccoon didn't
have to climb a mountain.
Technically, he's not
a raccoon, you know.
Whatever. He eats garbage.
Welcome.
Natasha, daughter of Ivan.
Clint, son of Edith.
Who are you?
Consider me a guide.
To you, and to all who
seek the Soul Stone.
Okay. You tell us where it is.
Then we'll be on our way.
If only it were that easy.
What you seek lies
in front of you...
...as does what you fear.
The stone is down there.
For one of you.
For the other...
In order to take the stone, you
must lose that which you love.
An everlasting exchange.
A soul, for a soul.
How's it going?
Jesus...
Maybe he's making this shit up.
No. I don't think so.
Why, 'cause he knows
your Daddy's name?
I didn't.
Thanos left here with the stone
without his daughter.
It's not a coincidence.
Yeah.
Whatever it takes.
Whatever it takes.
If we don't get that stone,
billions of people stay dead.
Then I guess we both
know who it's gotta be.
I guess we do.
I'm starting to think, we've been
different people here, Natasha.
For the last five years I've been trying
to do one thing: Get to right here.
That's all it's been about.
Bringing everybody back.
- Oh, don't you get all decent on me now.
- What, you think I wanna do it?
I'm trying to save
your life, you idiot.
Yeah well, I don't want
you to, because I...
Natasha, you know
what I've done.
You know what I've become.
I don't judge people on
their worst mistakes.
Maybe you should.
You didn't.
You're a pain in my
ass, you know that?
Okay.
You win.
Tell my family I love them.
You tell them yourself.
Damn you!
Let me go.
No.
Please, no.
It's okay.
Please...
Did we get them all?
You telling me this'll
actually work?
Clint, where's Nat?
Do we know if she had family?
Yeah. Us.
What?
I just asked him a question...
Yeah, you're acting like she's dead.
Why are we acting like she's dead?
We have the stones, right?
As long as we have
the stones, Cap, we can bring
her back, isn't that right?
So stop this shit. We're the
Avengers, get it together.
We can't get her back.
- Wha- what?
- It can't be undone. It can't.
I'm sorry. No offense, but you're
a very earthly being. Okay?
We're talking about space magic.
And "can't" seems very () don't you think?
Look, I know that I'm way
outside my paygrade here.
But she still isn't
here, is she?
- Now that's my point.
- It can't be undone.
Or that's at least what the,
great floating guy had to say.
Maybe you wanna go talk to him?
Okay?
Go grab your hammer, and you
go fly and you talk to him.
It was supposed to be me.
She sacrificed her life for that
goddamned stone. She bet her life on it.
She's not coming back.
We have to make it worth it.
We have to.
We will.
Boom!
All right. The glove's ready.
Question is, who's gonna
snap their freaking fingers?
I'll do it.
It's okay.
- No, no, no, no. Stop. Stop.
- Hey, hey...
Thor, just wait.
We haven't decided who's
gonna put that on yet.
I'm sorry. What, were you just sitting
around waiting for the right opportunity?
We should at least discuss it.
Look, us sitting here staring at that
thing is not gonna bring everybody back.
I'm the strongest Avenger, okay? So
this responsibility falls upon me.
It's my duty. It's not that... It's...
stop it! Just let me.
Just let me do it. Just
let me do something good.
- Something great.
- Look...
It's not just the fact that
that glove is channeling
enough energy to light up a
continent, I'm telling you
you're in no condition.
What do you think is coursing
through my veins right now?
Cheez Whiz?
- Lightning.
- Yeah.
Lightning won't help you, pal.
It's gotta be me.
You saw what those stones did to Thanos.
It almost killed him.
None of you could survive.
How do we know you will?
I don't. But the
radiation's mostly gamma.
It's like...
I was meant for this.
Good to go, yeah?
Let's do it.
You remember everyone
Thanos snapped away five
years ago and just bringing
them back to now, today.
Don't change anything
from the last five years.
Got it.
Friday, do me a favor and
activate protocol 8.
Yes, boss.
Everybody comes home.
- Take it off. Take it off!
- No, wait. Bruce, are you okay?
Talk to me, Banner.
I'm okay. I'm okay.
Bruce!
Don't move him.
- Did it work?
- Worth a shot. It's over. It's okay.
Honey.
Honey.
Guys...
I think it worked!
I can't breathe. I can't breathe!
I can't breathe.
Canopy. Canopy. Canopy.
Rhodey, Rocket, get outta here!
Hurry up! Hurry up!
Come on!
Rhodey!
Mayday, mayday! Does anybody copy? We're
in the lower level, it's flooding!
- What?
- We're drowning! Does anybody copy? Mayday!
Wait! I'm here! I'm
here, can you hear me?
Cap?
Daughter.
Yes, Father.
So, this is the future.
Well done.
Thank you, Father. They
suspected nothing.
The arrogant never do.
Go.
Find the stones.
Bring them to me.
What will you do?
Wait.
Tell me something.
In the future, what
happens to you and me?
I tried to kill you.
Several times.
But eventually,
we become friends.
We become sisters.
Come on.
We can stop him.
Come on, buddy. Wake up.
That's my man.
You lose this again,
I'm keeping it.
What happened?
We messed with time.
It tends to mess back.
You'll see.
What's he been doing?
Absolutely nothing.
Where are the stones?
Lost somewhere under all this.
All I know is he
doesn't have them.
So we keep it that way.
- You know it's a trap, right?
- Yeah...
I don't much care.
Good.
Just as long as we're
all in agreement.
Let's kill him
properly this time.
You could not live
with your own failure.
Where did that bring you?
Back to me.
I thought by eliminating
half of life,
the other half would thrive.
But you've shown me,
that's impossible.
And as long as there are those
that remember what was,
there will always be those that
are unable to accept what can be.
They will resist.
Yep. We're all
kinds of stubborn.
I'm thankful.
Because now, I know
what I must do.
I will shred this universe
down to its last atom.
And then...
With the stones you've collected
for me, create a new one.
Teeming with life,
but knows not what it has lost
but only what it has been given.
A grateful universe.
Born out of blood.
They'll never know it.
Because you won't be
alive to tell them.
See you on the other side, man.
Hang on! I'm coming!
Oh, hey...
I know you.
Father. I have the stones.
What?!
Stop.
You're betraying us?
You don't have to do this.
I am... this.
No, you're not.
You've seen what we become.
Nebula, listen to her.
You can change.
He won't let me.
No!
Okay, Thor. Hit me.
Boss, wake up.
I knew it!
In all my years of conquest...
violence...
slaughter...
It was never personal.
But I'll tell you now...
what I'm about to do
to your stubborn,
annoying little planet...
I'm gonna enjoy it.
Very, very much.
Cap, you hear me?
Cap, it's Sam.
Can you hear me?
On your left.
Is that everyone?
What, you wanted more?
Avengers...
... assemble.
No, no. Give me that.
You have the little one.
Hey!
Holy cow.
You will not believe what's been going on.
Do you remember when we were in space?
And I got all dusty? I must've passed
out, 'cause I woke up, and you were gone.
But Doctor Strange was there, right?
He was like,
"It's been five years.
Come on, they need us!"
And then he started doing the yellow
sparkly thing that he does all the time...
What are you doing?
This is nice.
Gamora?
I thought I lost you.
Don't... touch... me!
You missed the first time...
then you got them
both the second time.
This is the one? Seriously?
The choices were him, or a tree.
Cap, what do you want me to
do with this damn thing?
Get those stones as
far away as possible!
No!
We need to get them back
where they came from.
No way to get them back. Thanos
destroyed the quantum tunnel.
Hold on!
That wasn't our
only time machine.
Anyone see an ugly
brown van up there?
Yes!
But you're not gonna
like where it's parked.
Scott, how long you need
to get that thing working?
Maybe ten minutes.
Get it started. We'll
get the stones to you.
We're on it, Cap.
Hey.
You said one out of 14
million, we win, yeah?
Tell me this is it.
If I tell you what
happens, it won't happen.
You better be right.
It's a mess back here.
It's... it's dead.
- What?
- It's dead.
I have to hotwire it.
Where's Nebula?
She's not responding.
Sire!
Clint!
Give it to me.
You took everything from me.
I don't even know who you are.
You will.
I got it!
Activate Instant Kill!
Rain fire!
But Sire, our troops!
Just do it!
Is anyone else seeing this?
I got this.
I got this!
Okay, I don't got this.
- Help! Somebody, help!
- Hey, Queens. Heads up.
Hang on. I got you, kid.
Hey! Nice to meet---
Oh! My God!
What the hell is this?
Friday, what are they firing at?
Something just entered
the upper atmosphere.
Oh, yeah!
Danvers, we need an assist here.
Hi. I'm Peter Parker.
Hey, Peter Parker. Got
something for me?
I don't know how you're
gonna get through all that.
Don't worry.
She's got help.
I am... inevitable.
And I...
am...
... Iron Man.
Mr. Stark?
Hey...
Mr. Stark? Can you hear me?
It's Peter.
We won.
Mr. Stark....
We won, Mr. Stark.
We won and you did it, sir.
You did it.
I'm sorry... Tony...
- Hey.
- Hey, Pep...
- Friday?
- Life functions critical.
Tony.
Look at me.
We're gonna be okay.
You can rest now.
Everybody wants a
happy ending, right?
But it doesn't always
roll that way.
Maybe this time.
I'm hoping if you
play this back,
it's in celebration.
I hope families are reunited,
I hope we get it back,
and something like a
normal version of the
planet has been restored.
If there ever was such a thing.
God, what a world.
Universe, now.
If you told me ten years
ago that we weren't alone,
let alone, you know,
to this extent,
I mean, I wouldn't have been surprised.
But come on, you know?
That epic forces of darkness and
light that have come into play.
And, for better or worse,
that's the reality Morgan's gonna
have to find a way to grow up in.
So I found the time and I
recorded a little greeting...
In the case of an untimely death.
On my part.
Not that, death in any
time isn't untimely.
This time travel thing that we're
gonna try and pull off tomorrow,
it's, it's got me scratching
my head about this.
But then again, that's the hero gig.
Part of the journey is the end.
Everything's gonna work out
exactly the way it's supposed to.
I love you 3,000.
You know, I wish
there was a way...
that I could let her know.
That we won.
We did it.
She knows.
They both do.
How you doing, Squirt?
- Good.
- You good?
- Okay. You hungry?
- Mm-hmm.
- What do you want?
- Cheeseburgers.
You know your Dad
liked cheeseburgers?
I'm gonna get you all the
cheeseburgers you want.
Okay.
So, when can we expect you back?
- About that...
- Thor. Your people need a king.
No, they already have one.
That's funny.
You're being serious?
It's time for me to be
who I am rather than
who I'm supposed to be.
But you, you're a leader.
That's who you are.
You know I'd make a lot
of changes around here.
I'm counting on it.
Your Majesty.
What will you do?
I'm not sure.
For the first time in a
thousand years, I...
I have no path. I do
have a ride, though.
Move it or lose it, hairbag.
Well, here we are.
Tree! Good to see you.
Well...
The As-Guardians of the
Galaxy back together again.
Where to first?
Just so you know, this is my ship still.
I'm in charge.
I know. I know. Of
course, you are.
Of course.
See, you say of course, but
then you touch the map.
It makes you think that maybe you
didn't realize I was in charge.
Quail, that's your own
insecurities in there. Okay?
I'm merely trying to be of service.
An assistant.
- Quill.
- That's what I said.
You should fight one another
for the honor of leadership.
Sounds fair.
- It's not necessary.
- It's not.
Okay?
I got some blasters unless
you guys wanna use knives.
Oh, yes. Please, use knives.
I am Groot.
Not necessary.
There shall be no
knifing one another.
Everybody knows who's in charge.
It's me.
Yes, you! Of course!
Of course. Of course.
Remember...
You have to return the stones at
the exact moment you got them.
Or you're gonna open up a bunch
of nasty alternative realities.
Don't worry, Bruce.
Clip all the branches.
You know, I tried.
When I had the gauntlet, the stones,
I really tried to bring her back.
- I miss them, man.
- Me, too.
You know, if you want,
I can come with you.
You're a good man, Sam.
This one's on me, though.
Don't do anything stupid
'till I get back.
How can I? You're taking
all the stupid with you.
Gonna miss you, Buddy.
It's gonna be okay, Buck.
How long is this gonna take?
For him? As long as he
needs, For us, five seconds.
Ready, Cap?
Alright. We'll meet
you back here, okay?
You bet.
Going quantum. Three..
two.. one...
And returning in, five,
four, three, two, one...
Where is he?
I don't know. He blew right by his
time stamp. He should be here.
- Well, get him back.
- I'm trying.
- Get him the hell back.
- I said, I'm trying!
Sam.
Go ahead.
Cap?
Hi, Sam.
So did something go wrong,
or did something go right?
Well, after I put the
stones back, I thought...
Maybe I'll try some
of that life Tony was...
telling me to get.
How did that work out for you?
It was beautiful.
I'm happy for you. Truly.
Thank you.
Only thing bumming me
out is the fact I have
to live in a world
without Captain America.
Oh...
That reminds me...
Try it on.
How's it feel?
Like it's someone else's.
It isn't.
Thank you.
I'll do my best.
That's why it's yours.
You wanna tell me about her?
No.
No, I don't think I will.

He&#39;s famous!Here, Grandma.Whoa, Mitsuha.Mitsuha, Yotsuha, do you know &quot;Musubi&quot;?Musubi?Musubi is the old way of callingthe local guardian god.This word has profound meaning.Tying thread is Musubi.Connecting people is Musubi.The flow of time is Musubi.These are all the god&#39;s power.So the braided cords that we makeare the god&#39;s art and representthe flow of time itself.They converge and take shape.They twist, tanglesometimes unravel, break,then connect again.Musubi - knotting. That&#39;s time.Drink.Thank you.I want some too!That&#39;s also Musubi.Whether it be water, rice, or sake,when a person consumes something andit joins their soul, that&#39;s Musubi.So today&#39;s offeringis an important custom thatconnects the god and people.Hey, I see it!That&#39;s the bodyof Miyamizu Shrine&#39;s god?Beyond this point is &quot;kakuriyo.&quot;It means the underworld.It&#39;s the underworld!In exchange for returning to this world,you must leave behindwhat is most important to you.The kuchikamisake.The kuchikamisake?You&#39;ll offer it inside the god&#39;s body.It&#39;s half of you.Half of Mitsuha...It&#39;s twilight - &quot;kataware-doki&quot; already.Kataware-doki?Oh yeah,maybe I can see the comet.The comet?Oh,Mitsuha,you&#39;re dreaming right now, aren&#39;t you?Tears?

That&#39;s not true at all.I wonder.Oh well. Thanks for today.See you at work.By the time the date is over,the comet will be visible in the sky.What is she saying?&quot;Mitsuha Miyamizu.&quot;Oh, it&#39;s you, Tessie.No, I just didn&#39;t feel like going,that&#39;s all. I&#39;m fine.What? The festival? Well...Oh yeah, the comet. Today&#39;s the peakof its brightness, isn&#39;t it?OK, got it. Later, then.You just want to see her in ayukata.What I? No!That didn&#39;t even occur to me.Hey, she sounded kind of down.Maybe you annoyed her.Come on!Sorry I&#39;m late.- Here she is!- Finally!- Your... your...- Oh! What happened, Mitsuha?Your hair!Looks kinda funny, I guess?You think some guy is the reason?Ditched, maybe?Why do guys associatecutting hair with breakups?She said she just felt like it.Really? She just felt like cutting offthat much hair?Oh! Hey! You can see it!Wow!The number you are trying to call is notreachable or has been turned offi...I&#39;ll tell her about the disastrous datethe next time we switch,I thought. But...For some reason, after that,Mitsuha and I neverswitched places again.&quot;Mountains in Gifu Prefecture.&quot;&quot;Hida mountains.&quot;What the... What are you doing here?Tsukasa told me and here I am!Tsukasa, I asked you to cover for meat home and at work.Takagi will cover your shift.Leave it to me! But you owe me a meal!This isn&#39;t funny.- We were worried about you.- Huh?You can&#39;t go alone. What if it&#39;s a con act?A con act?You&#39;re meeting an online friend.Well no, not exactly...- I think he&#39;s using a dating site.- No!You&#39;ve been acting weird lately.We&#39;ll keep an eye on you.I&#39;m not a kid!The switching stopped.My calls and texts didn&#39;t go through.So I decided to go see Mitsuhain person.I wanted to meet her. But...What? You don&#39;t know where?The town&#39;s scenery is your only clue?Yes.And you can&#39;t contact her?What&#39;s this all about?Seriously. What a lousy tour planner.I did not plan a tour!Oh well. We&#39;ll help you look for her.Oh how cute! Look!So annoying.Oh, it moved!So it&#39;s impossible after all...What? After all the troublewe went through?You haven&#39;t done anything.ATakayama ramen.ATakayama ramen.Oh, then a Takayama ramen.- OK. 3 ramens.- OK.Can we return to Tokyo today?We could be cutting it close.I&#39;ll check.Thanks.Are you all right with that?I&#39;m starting to feel likeI&#39;m barking up the wrong tree.Why young man,that&#39;s ltomori, isn&#39;t it?It&#39;s a very good drawing.Isn&#39;t it, dear?Yeah, it&#39;s ltomori.Brings back memories.He was born in ltomori.Itomori...?Yes! Ltomori Town! That&#39;s it!It&#39;s nearby, isn&#39;t it?- What are you...- ltomori was...ltomori? No way!Is it where that comet...?&quot;Keep Out.&quot;Hey. Is this really the place?No way! Taki must be misremembering.No. I&#39;m sure this is it.This schoolyard. The mountains.I remember this high school clearly!That can&#39;t be true!Surely you remember that disasterthat took hundreds of lives 3 years ago!Died?Died 3 years ago?That can&#39;t be.I still have the memosthat she left behind...They&#39;re disappearing...Comet Tiamat, with an orbital periodof 1,200 years,&quot;ltomori,the Town that Vanished&quot;made a close approach to Earth3 years ago in October.&quot;Meteor Strikes, Wipes out Town&quot; Nobody predictedthat its nucleus would split at its perigee.&quot;Town Annihilated.&quot;&quot;Over 500 dead or missing&quot;&quot;ltomori, the Town that Vanished.&quot;A fragment of the comet becamea meteor that struck Japan.&quot;Itomori, comet, damage.&quot;It was the day of the autumn festival.The point of impact was here.At 8:42 p.m., it struck where peoplewere gathered for the festival.&quot;List of the Names of Victims.&quot;Over 500 people died,a third of the town&#39;s population,and now nobody lives in ltomori anymore.Tessie and Sayaka...&quot;Mitsuha Miyamizu.&quot;It has to be some kind of mistake.This person died 3 years ago!Just 2, 3 weeks ago, she said to methat the comet would be visible.So...You &#39;re dreaming now...I......aren&#39;t you?I...What did l...?Lively up there.I&#39;m sorry we could only get one room.No problem.How&#39;s Taki?He&#39;s still reading articles on ltomori.Newspapers and magazinesat the time at random it seems.- What?- Nothing. I didn&#39;t know you smoked.Oh. I&#39;d quit recently, but...What do you think about Taki&#39;s story?I liked him.The way he was recently. He was alwaysa nice guy, but even more so lately.Like he was trying so hard. It was cute.What he&#39;s sayingdoesn&#39;t make sense to me...But I&#39;m sure he met someoneand that someone changed him.That much is for sure, I think.&quot;Worst-everltomori Comet Disaster.&quot;It was all just a dream.I recognized the scenery becauseI remembered the news from 3 years ago.If not that, then... a ghost?No... Was I fantasizing?Her name... What was it?Tsukasa went to take a bath.Oh, Ms.Okudera. I, uh...I&#39;ve been saying such strange things.Thank you for coming along today.No problem.&quot;Tatara Iron Making Site.&quot;&quot;Braided Cords of ltomori.&quot;Braided cords. How pretty.Is that a braided cord you&#39;re wearing?Oh, this... I think someonegave it to me a long time ago.I wear it sometimesas kind of a lucky charm...Who was it?Why don&#39;t you go take a bath, too?Yes... No.Someone who makes braided cordstold me before...The cords representthe flow of time itself.The threads twist, tangle,unravel, and connect again. That&#39;s time...Maybe at that place...&quot;Around here?&quot;Taki.Taki.Taki.Don&#39;t you remember me?&quot;I have to go somewhere. Return to Tokyowithout me. I&#39;ll return later. Thanks.&quot;Taki...Eat this up there.Your drawing of ltomori... It was good.They converge and take shape.They twist, tangle,sometimes unravel,then connect again...Musubi - knotting. That&#39;s time.There it is!It&#39;s really there!It wasn&#39;t just a dream!From here is the underworld.It&#39;s the sake we brought.This is my sister&#39;s, and this is mine.Before the comet struck... So theMitsuha I know is from 3 years ago?Our timelines weren&#39;t in step.Half of her...Musubi.If time can really be turned back,give me one last chance...The comet!Your name is Mitsuha.You&#39;re both my treasures.You&#39;re a big sister now.&quot;Get well soon, Mom.&quot;I&#39;m so sorry, my dears.Dad, when is Mom going to come home?I couldn&#39;t save her.Get a hold of yourself!Who cares about the shrine?You&#39;re the adopted son-in-law!I loved my wife Futaba.Not Miyamizu Shrine.Get out of here!Mitsuha, Yotsuha,you&#39;ll be with Grandma from now on.&quot;Who are you?&quot;Who am I? No, who are you?Who am I? No, who are you?&quot;Fool.&quot;Don&#39;t be full of yourself.Not like YOU have a girlfriend.He&#39;s so lucky. They must be togetheraround now...I...I&#39;m going to Tokyo.What? Hey, Mitsuha!Grandma, could you do me a favor?Oh yeah, the comet.Today&#39;s the peak of its brightness...Mitsuha! Don&#39;t stay there!Mitsuha, get out of therebefore the comet strikes!Mitsuha, get out of there!Mitsuha! Mitsuha!Mitsuha!I&#39;m Mitsuha! She&#39;s still alive!Mitsuha, are you touching...My sister!Yotsuha!Mitsuha has finally lost it.I&#39;m leaving without her.She&#39;s lost it.She&#39;s completely lost it.Scary.Comet Tiamat&#39; has been visibleto the naked eye for a few days now.Tonight it will finally reachits perigee around 7:40 p.m.,and will achieve its maximum brightness.It&#39;s tonight. There&#39;s still time.Good morning, Mitsuha.Oh...You&#39;re not Mitsuha, are you?You knew, Grandma?No, but watching the way you behavedlately triggered some memories.I also remember seeing strange dreamswhen I was a young girl.Although now I&#39;ve forgotten aboutwhose life I was dreaming about.Forgotten...Treasure the experience.Dreams fade away after you wake up.There were times your mother and Ihad similar experiences.Maybe those dreams thatthe Miyamizu people hadwere all for what will happen today.Grandma, listen.A comet will strike ltomori tonightand everyone will die.&quot;Nobody will believe that&quot;? What asurprisingly ordinary reply, Grandma.I won&#39;t let them die!Oh! What happened, Mitsuha?Your... your hair!Oh, this. It looked better before, huh?Oh, that&#39;s it?Forget that! If nothing is done,everyone will die tonight!So we have to act!Why aren&#39;t you at school?Uh... We have to save the town.The community wireless system?Yeah, those speakers you see everywhere.&quot;Superimposition, frequency.&quot;I see! That could work!You&#39;re awesome, Tessie!Hey! Don&#39;t come so close!What, embarrassed? Hey, hey!Stop! You&#39;re a girl of marriageable age!&quot;Club Discontinued - Keep Out.&quot;You&#39;re such a nice guy!Got them. Here&#39;s your change.Sorry, Sayaka.It&#39;s all right.- What a cheap fee.- Deal with it.What about you? Have you come upwith an escape plan?What? A bomb?We have water gel explosivesfor construction at our storage site.Broadcast hijacking?The town&#39;s wireless system can be easilyjacked using the start-up frequency.So we can broadcast an evacuationwarning from the school.The school is outside the disaster area,so people can evacuate here.It&#39;s... It&#39;s totally a crime!You do the broadcast.- Why?- You&#39;re in the broadcast club.I&#39;m in charge of explosives.I&#39;ll go talk to the mayor.In the end, the city councilhas to evacuate everyone.I&#39;m his daughter. I can persuade him.It&#39;s a perfect plan.Oh, whatever. It&#39;s just awhat-if fantasy, isn&#39;t it?What? Well...Not necessarily! Do you knowhow Lake ltomori was formed?&quot;A meteor crater lakeformed 1,200 years ago.&quot;It&#39;s a meteor crater! So one did strikethis area a thousand years ago!Oh! So that&#39;s why...You&#39;re right, Tessie!Let&#39;s do it together!What on earth are you talking about?I said we have to evacuate everyonein town before tonight or...Shut your mouth.&quot;The comet will split andstrike the town&quot;?&quot;Itomori Town Hal I.&quot;How dare you spout such nonsense?If you&#39;re serious, then you&#39;re sick.Madness must be from the Miyamizu side.I&#39;ll get someone to drive youto a hospital in the city.I&#39;ll listen to youafter a doctor examines you.You son of a...!Mitsuha! No...Who...Who are you?See you later at the festival.Let&#39;s meet at the shrine.- Don&#39;t be late.- Bye!- See you.- Later.You shouldn&#39;t go!Get out of town. Tell your friends.What are you saying?Mitsuha!- What was that?- Let&#39;s go.What are you doing?Could Mitsuha...Could she have persuaded them?Is it my fault?Yotsuha, leave town with Grandmabefore nightfall.You&#39;ll die if you stay here!What are you saying?Yesterday you suddenly went to Tokyo.What&#39;s wrong with you?Tokyo?Hey, Mitsuha!How did it go with your old man?Hey, Mitsuha?What&#39;s wrong with her?No idea.Are you there?Is something over there?Let me use your bike.Hey, what the...Hey, Mitsuha!What about our plan?Get ready as planned!Please!I&#39;m Taki again.What&#39;s Taki doing here?The town...is gone.At that moment... did I...die?Taki.
