[first lines]
James Rogers : Can we hear it again? Please.
Torunn : More - tell us the story more! Please.
Tony Stark : Okay, one more time and then it's off to bed.
[Tony tells the story]
Tony Stark : And there came the day, unlike any other. When Earth's mightiest heroes were united against a common threat. The Soldier, the God, the Knight, the Spy, the Giant, the King, the Pixie, the Ghost, and the Archer. On that day, the Avengers were born. To fight foes that no single hero could withstand: time-traveling conquerors, alien invaders and masters of evil. The Avengers vanquished them all. And finally, when the world was at peace, the heroes built lives of their own. The Soldier and Spy fell in love, as did the Giant and Pixie. The King found his Queen. And the Thunder God returned to his kingdom far away from the world of man. And one by one, the children of the Avengers came to be. Children who would one day become a new generation of heroes. But in time, evil returned. An evil called Ultron. Ultron wanted nothing less than total dominion over the world. But the Avengers stood in its way. Sadly, their defeat was inevitable. But before they fell, the Avengers hid their children in a faraway place, where they would grow up safe from Ultron's grasp. Because the Avengers knew that as long as their children were alive, there was hope. Hope for the future.

James Rogers : We can't hide anymore, Torunn. If we don't stand up to Ultron, who will? If we don't protect people like the Scavengers, who will? We have to make a stand. The longer we wait the more powerful Ultron becomes. He'll never stop hunting us. He'll never stop coming after Tony. We have to stop him. We owe it to our parents. We're all that's left of their legacy.
-
Pym : I think I can get him up and running. I'll need to reconfigure his power matrix.
Torunn : I say thee nay! I will not run and I will not hide! I am the daughter of Thor and Ultron will pay for what he's done!
Azari : James?
James Rogers : I led Ultron to our home. Tony's gone because of me.
Torunn : No! We're going after Ultron. Pym, take the controls and head for this Ultra City.
Pym : I'm on it, Torunn!... Uh, two questions: How do you fly this thing and where is Ultra City?
-
Hulk : [smashes Ultron] Hulk is strongest there is!
James Rogers : Uh-oh...
Azari : Uh-oh? What do you mean, "uh-oh"?
[the Hulk charges at the children...]
Hulk : [to Pym] Shrinking boy no sting Hulk anymore!
Pym : Never again... I promise!
-
Azari : Wait a minute. Barton? Do you know a guy named Clint Barton?
Hawkeye : Okay, kid. How do you know my dad?
Pym : Kid? You're like a day older than us!
Azari : We think your dad was an Avenger like our parents.
Hawkeye : Like your parents? Your parents were Avengers? That's not possible. My dad said I was the last! He told me I'd be the last Avenger! I've been here fighting all this time. Where have you been?
James Rogers : Let him go! We didn't know!
Hawkeye : I thought I was the last one...
-
[sees the Hulk for the first time]
James Rogers : Incredible...
-
Torunn : Hereth be the plan.
Pym : I don't think 'hereth' is right...
Torunn : Shut up, Pym! Here's the plan: we fight our way through the city, get to Ultron, smite him, free Tony.
James Rogers : That plan is insane on several levels. We can't beat Ultron.
Torunn : I am immortal and invulnerable. Ultron holds no fear for me. Besides, my father watches over me.
James Rogers : You don't know that you're invulnerable.
Torunn : FOR ASGARD!
-
Azari : What is your problem, James? You've been sleeping all day, missing training, blowing off your chores, and generally being a real pain.
James Rogers : Who cares. What, am I gonna miss laundry day? So what if we don't do the chores and train? For what? Seriously, nothing's ever going to happen in this place. You can act like a king, Pym can play superhero, and Torunn can live in a fantasy land saying 'aye' and 'verily' till she's blue in the face! What's the point?
Torunn : The point is to not be such a jerk!
James Rogers : Oh, right, sorry. There's no point for us 'cause our parents are dead. Your dad just abandoned you, so there's still hope.
-
Tony Stark : I know you feel trapped here with just the five of us, but try not to take out on your brothers and sister. If you want to be mad at someone, be mad at me.
James Rogers : I'll apologize to 'em later.
Tony Stark : Your father was never very good at doing nothing, either. You know you can always come talk to me, James.
James Rogers : But it's not the same, is it? Like you say, you're not my dad.
-
Torunn : We should be out there with Tony, not hiding!
Pym : Maybe this is a new training drill. Maybe... maybe it's Ultron.
James Rogers : What? That's ridiculous! It's not Ultron! It's probably something stupid like a fire on the machine level or that time Jocasta went nuts because of a water main leak! It's not Ultron...
-
Tony Stark : The Hulk was a monster, a creature of pure rage.
James Rogers : Is the Hulk strong enough to defeat Ultron?
Betty Ross : He won't help you, James. He's too scared.
-
James Rogers : Can the Hulk defeat Ultron?
Tony Stark : James!
Bruce Banner : The Hulk doesn't care about Ultron, boy! He just wants to be left alone!
