Stark: “Yes. Shall I render using proposed specifications?”. “Thrill me.”. “Mr. Stark.” “Agent Coulson.” “Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division.” “Right, yeah. Whew! God, you guys need a new name for that.” “Yeah, we hear that a lot. Listen, I know this must be a trying time for you, but we need to debrief you. How ’bout the 24th at 7 p.m. at Stark Industries?”
“You look fantastic. I didn’t recognize you.”.
- What are you doing here?”. “Just avoiding government agents.” – “Are you by yourself?”. “Where’d you get that dress?”. “I- oh, it was a birthday present…” – “That’s great.”. “You have a lot of nerve showing up here tonight. You’re my boss and I’m dancing with you.” “I really don’t think it was taken that way.”.
If we can’t accept limitations, if we are boundary less, we are no better than the bad guys.”
“Tony, if someone dies on your watch, you don’t give up.”. “Who said we’re giving up?”. “We are if we’re not taking responsibility for our actions.”
Part of the journey is the end
Being adrift in space with zero promise of rescue is more fun than it sounds
- Food and water ran out four days ago
- Oxygen will run out tomorrow morning
- When I drift off, I will dream about you
- If you find this recording, don’t post it on social media
- It’s gonna be a real tearjerker
- I hope families are reunited
“My father, Anton Vanko.”.
“Never heard of him.”. “My father is the reason you’re alive.”. “No, the reason I’m alive is because you made a shot, and you missed.”.
- “If you could make God bleed, people would cease to believe in Him.”
What are you not telling me?
Tony Stark is not going home. At all.
- “I don’t want to go home. Let’s cancel my birthday party and-and, uh… we’re in Europe.” – “Let’s go to Venice, Cipriani. Remember?” – “It’s a great place to-to… be healthy.”. “No, I don’t think this is the right time. We’re in… kind of a mess.”. – “Yeah, but maybe that’s why it’s the best time…” – “Well, I think as the CEO I need to show up.”

“They’re filing an injunction.” “They wanna lock you out.” “Why? ‘Cause the stocks dipped forty points?” “Fifty-six and a half.” “It doesn’t matter! We own the controlling interest in the company.” “Tony, the board has rights too.” “I’m being responsible for the way that… Oh, this is great.” “Hey, hey, hey Tony. Listen. I’m trying to turn this thing around, but you’ve gotta give me something. Something to pitch ’em.” “No.” “J.A.R.V.I.S., you there?”. “At your service, sir.”
Tony Stark:
“I know you got a lot on the line, Happy. Your wife, your daughter. But I lost someone very important to me. I can’t help everybody.”.
- Tony, trying to get you to stop has been one of the few failures of my entire life. I just really miss him.”

- “Yeah, a time heist.”
“Welcome to the inside of my mind, Sheeple. You’ve been programmed through little screens, big screens, and morphine drips of sequels and prequels, all designed by the media, corporate S.H.I.E.L.D. machine, and you’re asleep, binge-watching the Apocalypse!”

I signed because it was the right thing to do. And, yeah, this sucks. But it hasn’t change my mind. I just wanted to mention that I think with a little more mentoring, you could be a real asset to the team. There’s about 50 reporters behind that door, real ones, not bloggers, so when you’re ready…Why don’t you try that on, and we’ll introduce the world to the newest official member of the Avengers: Spider-Man.”

- Colonel: “Look who fell out of the sky. Tony Stark.”
What’d I do? I feel like you’re gonna pull over and ***** me. What? You’re not allowed to talk? Hey, Forrest!” “You can talk, sir.” “Oh, I see. So it’s personal?”. “No, you intimidate them.” “Good god, you’re a woman. I thought it’d be as a soldier first.”
