02x02 - Infiltration Black Market Auction

[bunniefuu]

WASP: What's on the menu for today?Z

There's an assignment
I want you to help me with.

Sounds serious.

BLACK WIDOW: I've been invited
to an overnight cruise on a luxury liner.

You interested?

A luxury cruise liner?

Mmm-hmm.

Let me guess.

This overnight cruise
won't be relaxing, will it?

No.

But it could be exciting.

Hmm.

Okay. Count me in.

Wait.

Me too. I want to come with you.

Are you sure?

I'm positive.

Especially since Makoto is with Thor,

and Adi and Bruno are off on
a mission with Captain Hulk.

And Tony, he just stays
cooped up in his lab

doing who knows what.

Please don't make me stay here.

It's so boring.

Take me with you.

Please.

Mmm. Should we?

Sure. Why not.

Maybe we can use those
camouflage act skills of yours

while we're on this job.

All right.

[GIGGLING]

[THEME MUSIC]

The luxury cruise ship, "Star Bright",

that's where our job is.

And right now she's anchored


I've heard about that ship.

It only caters to the world's
most rich and powerful.

Very exclusive.

And secretive too.

Tonight it will host
a black market auction.

Ah, what's a black market auction?

BLACK WIDOW: Artwork and artifacts

that have been stolen from
museums and ancient ruins

around the globe.

They'll all be on sale for
society's wealthiest elites.

Deadly weapons will also be for sale,

and the buyers will be villains.

Many of the world's
most dangerous criminals

are on that ship.

WASP: Which means,
if we crush that auction,

we could take down a big piece of

the international underground.

Mmm-hmm.

Okay, girl Avengers, let's assemble.

Ah.

BLACK WIDOW: This isn't a game, Chloe,

so don't get too carried away.

She's always such a downer.

Black Widow does have a point.

We shouldn't get too excited just because

we're going on a fancy ship.

Are you ready?

You bet.

WASP: I take it there's
something important

going on at this auction.

You only ask for help
when the stakes are high.

What are we looking for, exactly?

BLACK WIDOW: The stone of infinite power.

What is the stone of infinite power?

Honestly, we don't
know what it looks like.

We don't know its origin
or where it was stolen from either.

The one thing we do know,
that stone is imbued

with massive destructive power.

It almost sounds like some fairy tale.

No. I've heard about the stone as well.

It has the power to reduce
an entire city to ash and rubble.

Really?

BLACK WIDOW: The stone of infinite power

has a shadowed history,
always leaving a trail

of destruction in its wake.

I don't know what criminal
got their hands on it,

but they've decided
to bring it to the ship

for tonight's auction.

Whoever is selling this stone
isn't our biggest concern.

It's the villain who's willing to place
the highest bid to buy it.

We've got to stop them.

BLACK WIDOW: That's our mission.

Secure the stone of infinite power,

and keep it out of the hands of evil.

WASP: As a bonus, we get to
bust the underground auction

and roundup the riff-raff.

BLACK WIDOW: We're getting close.

CHLOE: Amazing.

It's like a floating hotel.

DIAMONDBACK: Well. Well. Well.

I thought this ship
was kept squeaky clean,

but it looks like we've got rats.

ASP: Sorry, Cinderella.

You and your guests are
too late for the party.

BLACK MAMBA: And what's even worse,

your fairy godmother didn't send you here
in a pumpkin carriage, just a little boat.

DIAMONDBACK: Something tells me
these girls weren't invited.

What a surprise.

I was wrong.

Apparently, we don't have a rat here,
but a nasty spider.

Hello, Black Widow.

Looks like we found
a nest of poisonous snakes.

ASP: Avengers, welcome aboard.

But I hope the three of you
didn't come here planning

to bust up the auction.

Even if you were, it's not going to happen

because now you've been caught
by Bad Girls Inc.

Bad girls? What is that?

They're bad news.

You got that right,

because you have just crossed Diamondback.

And Asp.

And me, Black Mamba.

Whether you're a spider or a rat,
we will swallow you whole.

Let's take these snakes down.

Chloe, be careful.

Oh, I got this.

[SPARRING SOUNDS]

Take this venom bolt.

Wasp sting.

Oh.

Ah.

Unh.

Unh.

Ah!

Chloe!

Unh.

Nice shot, Wasp.

Hmm?

Visco is reading the chip.

Visco is reading the chip.

Visco is reading the chip.

A map of the ship.

They must have been hired to protect it
from any outside interference.

Hey, what is that?

Is that the location for the auction?

BLACK WIDOW: No,
that's the ship's cargo hold.

I doubt they would host an event in there.

WASP: Could it be where
all the items for sale

are being stored?

Hmm, more than likely.

How do we get down to the lower levels?

Hmm.

Well, I bet the guards can
do it without any problems.

Ah.

WASP: Sleep tight.

What do you think?

Hmm.

I guess it's not bad.

If you think you can do better,
then show us.

Time for camouflage act.

Well, nice.

Got us beat.

This ship is huge.

Wasp and I will go
check out the lower decks.

Huh? What about me?

Walk around up here.

Case the ship and find out
where the auction is being held.

Search the entire ship?

That's right.

I'd guess they're holding it
in one of the ship's halls.

And you've got one more job.

Find out where
the criminal types hang out.

Well, that's an exciting way
to spend the night.

How am I supposed to figure
out which room they're in?

BLACK WIDOW: If you can't do that,

I'm wondering why
we even brought you with us.

Hmm.

Why is she so mean?

Chloe, listen, don't involve
the regular passengers.

And also don't do anything rash.

Got it?

I got it.

Let's split up and keep looking.

There are meeting halls
all over this ship.

It's such a drag.

Why did I have to get the boring job?

Huh?

Ooh, what smells so good?

Sorry, ma'am.

Ship's crew only.

Oh, I'm sorry.

[STOMACH GROWLING]

Why did I have to get hungry now.

CHEF: Let's go.

Let's get these hors d'oeuvres
out of here. Table 20.

Got it.

Hmm.

Ah.

CHLOE: [VOICEOVER] Delicious.

CHEF: No eating in the kitchen.

Table 7.

Come on. Table 7.

Let's get going.

Oh. Yes, sir.

WAITER: Why are you just standing there?

The food will get cold.

Of course.

Can you remind me where table 7 is?

Right over there.

CHLOE: Thank you for waiting.

Oh, I'm so sorry.

Don't worry about it.

Accidents happen. It'll be fine.

Thank you. I'm so sorry about that.

Oh, I hope I didn't get
that lovely box wet.

No, it's dry.

But it is very special to us.

I'll admit for a second
I was worried it was damaged.

I'm glad it's all right.

No harm done.

You're such a sweet, young girl.

And so lovely.

Oh, thank you.

CHLOE: [VOICEOVER]
What a sweet, old couple.

Oh, no.

Here.

I'm done with this.

Ah, yes, ma'am.

CHLOE: [VOICEOVER] That was close.

WASP: The stone of infinite power.

That must be it.

BLACK WIDOW: [ON EAR PHONE] Careful.

There's a grid of infrared sensors
around it.

They're everywhere.

It might be difficult to
get through even for you.

WASP: [ON EAR PHONE] What should I do?

Find the security systems control box
and take it out.

Copy that.

GUARD: Hey.

What are you doing?

You're supposed to be standing
guard on the main deck.

I know.

I'm just taking a bit of a break.

GUARD: [ON EAR PHONE]
You can't take a break now.

The auction is going to start any minute.

BLACK WIDOW: [VOICEOVER]
We don't have much time.

Get moving.

Go on back to your position.

All right.

Ah.

Hey, by the way, what stuff
are you thinking of bidding on

at tonight's auction?

I'm not bidding on nothing.

WASP: But there will be all kinds
of valuable arts and rare gems.

All I'm interested in is cash money.

WASP: Oh, wow. Practical.

GUARD: [ON EAR PHONE] [LAUGHING]

Cash is king.

It's the only thing
that you can truly count on.

The world's an unpredictable place.

I hear you,
but it sounds like a boring way to live.

No romance.

Once you see how much
dough I have, sweetheart,

you won't think I'm boring at all.

Oh, really.

How interesting.

Oh, but my break's over.

Sorry, I need to get going.

Maybe some other time, you could show me.

BLACK WIDOW: It's gone.

Tell you what,
after we bring out the auction items,

you and I can talk some more.

Sure, that sounds great.

See you later.

So did you get it?

What's going on?

BLACK WIDOW: [ON EAR PHONE]
There was nothing in the box.

It's not ideal,
but now we'll have to grab it

while the auction is going on.

CHLOE: [ON EAR PHONE] Wasp, do you copy?

What is it?

CHLOE: [ON EAR PHONE] The only hall

that's being used today
is the Queen's Hall on the third floor.

Got it.

BLACK WIDOW: [ON EAR PHONE]
We'll meet you there.

Which way is it?

Oh, dear.

Hi. Can I help?

Yes, please.

We were thinking of going
to the Queen's Hall,

but somehow we got lost.

Do you know where it is?

Oh, right. Yeah.

The Queen's Hall. No, I don't know.

Ah, I see.

What I do know is you two
should hurry back to your room

and stay in bed safe and sound.

Oh.

Why do you say that?

That's a good question.

There might be a bit
of a disturbance tonight.

Disturbance?

Sleep tight now.

Oh.

Wait, this is the auction?

Where are the criminals?

These are all normal passengers.

BLACK WIDOW: That's not true.

Do you see that man in the back?

That's The Hood.

He's a powerful g*ng boss who's dead set
on expanding his empire.

So he's bidding in the auction?

What about all the regular passengers?

We can't do anything.

There are too many innocent bystanders.

Maybe this is how he planned it.

GUARD: Hey, I finally made it back.

You want to talk some more or something?

Eh?

What's going on?
She's away from a post again.

What happened here?

They're about to start.

Where's the stone?

A relic of incredible power
shouldn't be too hard to find.

GUARD: We have a situation!

Our main deck security has been pacified.

Hmm?

Hey, wait a minute.

You!

MAN: It was those three.

The one in pink even tried to warn us.

Ah.

That sweet, old couple?

Not so sweet.

No way.

You're mixed up in all this?

I guess we do this the hard way.

Hmm.

Chloe, evacuate the passengers.

Everyone, you need to get out.

THE HOOD: Get out?

I don't think so.

You guys, what's going on?

I think I understand what's happening.

There are no innocent
passengers on this ship.

You got that right,
and you're like rats caught in a trap.

And by the look of it,
they're all Avengers.

Yes, dear.

And we get to eliminate them
all by ourselves.

Now this is what I call good luck.

Live long enough,
and luck will come your way.

Well, I guess this makes our job easier.

Yeah. We don't have to worry
about involving innocent people

because there aren't any.

Enough with that phony brave talk.

You don't know who you're talking to.

But you're about to find out.

[SPARRING SOUNDS]

Careful what you ask for!

Come on.

[INAUDIBLE]

You should be honored
that you're dying by my hand.

I warned you.

You should have gone back to your room.

Maybe next time you'll take my advice.

[GIGGLING]

[SPARRING SOUNDS]

Whoa.

The stone.

That's it. The stone of infinite power.

No way.

THE HOOD: Today's my lucky day.

MAN: No. Come back! Stop!

WOMAN: Dirty thief. Give it back!

BLACK WIDOW: Stop!

We'll find him.

Hmm.

THE HOOD: It's too good to be true.

I got what I came for
without paying a cent.

This was like taking candy from a baby.

Nothing can stop me now.

Seriously?

I didn't call for room service.

Fine with me, because I'm not here
to change your towels.

Too bad.

Because now that I have the stone,
things might just get messy.

It's strange.

All the power I've craved
held inside this cute little box.

Wait.

How did you... What's going on?

I'm sorry.

Were you hoping to keep this stone?

You little pest.

How did you get in here?

From up there.

You've gotta be kidding.

You missed me.

Why you... Ah!

MAKOTO: Are you serious?

You're telling me
the three of you brought down

an entire underworld g*ng?

CHLOE: Yep.

Ah.

What a waste of our time.

We rushed over here to help you.

Ah.

I'll tell you what, see all
the unconscious th*gs in the hall?

Make yourself useful and tie them up.

I can't believe this.

So what, now I'm supposed
to clean up your mess?

CHLOE: Don't be such a...

That's the one.

This is the infinity stone
that was stolen from Asgard.

It shouldn't be here.

It belongs in your world.

Thank you.

I shall go.

I will take it to Odin.

My father will be glad it's finally home.

Let's take this ship back to the port.

We can hand over all these villains
to the authorities.

[GIGGLING]

Huh?

Anyone here interested
in taking advantage of this luxury cruise

back to the harbor?

Oh, I am.

Well done, Chloe.

I'm proud of you.

Thank you.

Huh?

What a view.

So awesome.

Hey, guys.

What am I supposed to do?
