04x24 - The Wastelands

[bunniefuu]

♪♪

It's me, the uncanny Ms. Marvel.

We gotta move fast,
so here are the deets.

The alien Beyonder
took parts of planets

with all the people
and all the Avengers,

then mashed it up to make Battleworld.

Loki switched sides.

Now he and Iron Man just
finished building a new Bifrost.

With it, we can undo Battleworld
and send everyone home.

The fate of the universe is at stake.

No pressure.

[IRON MAN] With the info we got
from the Beyonder's Citadel,

we finished building the Bifrost.

But we can't turn it on until we
deliver it to the proper location.

That's why we need all of you
to stay on the move.

If you're lucky, you'll draw
the Beyonder away from us.

If we're lucky, the Bifrost
won't blow up in our faces.

Tempting fate by making
a "blow up in our faces" joke.

Why so nervous,
Dr. Foster?

Because it's crunch time.

Everything comes down to this.
It's a big moment.

Well, sometimes the moment chooses you.

Ooh, that sounded great.
Very dramatic.

I had a tech on it, though.
Can we get another read?

This time facing the camera.

Don't you have something
you should be doing?

Uh, by the way, if anybody finds
a coffee mug with my name on it,

that's, uh... that's mine.

I'm sensing something most grave.

Doctor Strange is right.
I sense it too.

[THUNDERCLAP]

The Beyonder.

[WIND HOWLING]

[STATIC]

[CAPTAIN AMERICA]
Brace yourselves, Avengers!

This is no pleasure cruise,
so stay sharp, Avengers.

Ms. Marvel, Vision, we need
you to secure the Bifrost.

No big. We got it.

[FALCON] The storm's not moving.

Maybe we gave the Beyonder the slip.

Well, that's the hope.
If we're lucky,

by the time the Beyonder
figures it out,

we'll be long...
[VEHICLE APPROACHING]

Oh! You see it?

- Yeah.
- Wish I didn't.

[GROWLS]

[YELLS]

[FALCON] Well, that's not
something you see every day.

Not even on Battleworld.

Pick a target and start blasting.

[BEEPS]

[GROWLING]

[ROARS]

[SNARLS]

Of course.

An entire planet destined only for w*r,

and you Avengers want
to take that away from me?

[GRUNTS]

Hey, Ares, think fast!

Aah!

[GRUNTS]

[GRUNTING]

[GROWLS, YELLS]

[GROWLING]

[YELLING]
[GRUNTS]

How's it on this side?

Our situation is tenuous.

Is it better on the other side? Uh, no.

[GRUNTS]

[GRUNTS]
[GROWLING]

[GRUNTS] Keep them away from the Bifrost.
[GROWLING]

Embiggen!

[BOTH GRUNT]

This is your stop! Off you go! Aaahhh!

Any reason why this platform's so slow?

My grandma drives faster than this, and
she thinks driving over is a sin.

What, you want me to go back
there and push? [HORN BLARES]

Hmm. That's worrisome.

[GROWLING]

[YELLS]

Uh-oh. Everyone hold on!

[YELLING]

[GRUNTING]

[YELLS]

Look out!

[BOTH YELL]

Hawkeye! Widow!

[YELLS, GRUNTS]

[GRUNTS]

[GRUNTING]

Clint!

I'm okay.

[MOTORCYCLE APPROACHING]

[GHOST RIDER GRUNTS]

[GROWLS, GRUNTS]

I got him.
[GRUNTS]

You're gonna have to do
better than that, son!

[GRUNTS]

Lucky sh*t.

[YELLS]

[GRUNTING]

You wanna see a real lucky sh*t?

Check this out.

- You hurt?
- [GRUNTS] I'll be fine.

Hope the others can say the same.

[YELLS]

[GRUNTS]

[BOTH GRUNT]

[GRUNTS]
Vision!

[GRUNTING]

[YELLING]

[YELLING]

You lack the stomach for
combat, Captain. [GRUNTS]

You could be a great warrior if you'd
only embrace the glory of battle!

[SWORD BLOWS LANDING]

[GROANS]

[GRUNTS]

[GRUNTS]

Greatness doesn't come from
fighting, Ares. [GRUNTING]

Greatness comes from finding
a way to stop it!

[GRUNTS, CHUCKLES]
Huh?

[CRIES OUT]

[GRUNTING]

Now this fight is done.
Huh?

[GROWLING]

[YELLS]
[GRUNTS]

[GRUNTING]

[GROWLS] Come on, Tony. We can do it.

Sensors showing something fast
coming up on our tail.

And cue the Beyonder.

We need to get out of this valley.
Kamala, take the wheel.

Me? Why me?

I don't know.
Why not you?

Gah! There must be
different controls in here!

[IRON MAN]
A hundred-and-fifty-one!

There you are.

You can't run from me, Stark.

Who's running?

[GRUNTS]

You interfere with my experiment,

then you reject
my offer of immortality.

You're nothing but
a constant source of irritation!

Constant irritation? They have
a topical cream for that now.

[GRUNTS]

The only joy I will get from you
is watching you suffer.

I just wanna state for the record that I
don't even have my learner's permit yet.

Gah! How do you adjust
the seat back?

Never mind.
I can do this!

[ALL GRUNT]

Uh-oh. Tony, what do
we do now? Tony?

[ALARM BEEPING]

I'm going to crush
everything you've ever built.

But first, I'm going to crush you.

[CRYING OUT]

[GRUNTS]
[ELECTRICITY ARCING]

[GRUNTS]

I can't hold it!

[YELLS]

[GRUNTING]

[SIGHS]

[GROANING]

Now begins the end of Tony Stark.

Did you think I would let you
use the Bifrost against me?

What's a Bifrost?

Don't play dumb with me.

[CHUCKLES] I have to play dumb
with you, because you're dumb.

You're very dumb.

[YELLS]

[GRUNTS]

[GRUNTS]

It was my idea to use the
Bifrost to build Battleworld.

Then you steal my idea to use the
Bifrost to undo my Battleworld.

You're just a copycat, a thief!

I thought there was
more to you than this.

Ares, tear the Bifrost apart.

[CHUCKLES]
With pleasure.

[GRUNTS]

[GRUNTS]

Huh?
[GASPS]

Mm?

It's what Ant-Man
had lying around.

A decoy?

Well, technically, it's a coffee mug.

We needed to keep you distracted
for as long as possible.

And you fell for it.
Because, again... dumb.

See ya, suspenders!

This isn't over, Stark!

Aah! Does no one understand
Battleworld but me?

Somebody fight me!

Aah!
[GROWLS]

You want someone to fight,
we can oblige.

[CAPTAIN MARVEL] We gotta work
fast, Avengers. Wasp, the package.

[WASP] Tony wanted it
positioned right at this spot.

Then that's my cue.
B.R.B.

[GRUNTS]

Everybody step back.

Doctor Strange, Loki, you're up.

Our worlds are depending on us
getting the Bifrost up and running.

[GRUNTING]

What is it, Black Panther?

I am sensing something.

[MOTORCYCLE ENGINES IN DISTANCE]

[CAPTAIN MARVEL]
There's your something.

[BLACK PANTHER]
Avengers, we are under siege.

Create a perimeter and defend
the Bifrost at all costs.

[GRUNTS]

[GRUNTS]

Accursed creatures, have at thee!

[GROWLING]

[GRUNTING]

[GRUNTS]

These guys look tired.
I think they need a break!

[GASPS]

Too many skeletons on this mountain.

[YELLS]
[YELLS]

Aah! They're buying us time.
keep going!

[GROWLS]

Don't bring that weak sauce
here, biker guy. [GRUNTS]

[YELLS]
[YELLS]

Wasp, I got things here.
You rally the others. Me?

You're not just an Avenger.
You are a leader.

Now get to work!

Let's do it, boys and girls!
Don't hold back!

SEND THESE REJECTS THE MESSAGE:
Avengers can do this

all day, all night, all the time. Aah!

Attagirl.

[GRUNTS]

[YELLS]

[GRUNTS]
Aaahhh!

[YELLS]

[GRUNTS]

Aaahhh!

[YELLS]
[GRUNTS]

Huh?
Hulk!

[CRIES OUT]

[YELLING]

The Bifrost must be started up
in precise order.

If the monsters interrupt the
process, we'll never get home.

Don't stop.
You two keep at it.

Jane Foster's gotta go to work.

[BOTH GRUNT]

[YELLS, GRUNTS]

[YELLS]

You certainly know
how to make an entrance.

Stop.
You're embarrassing me.

Actually, do not stop.
We need that Bifrost running.

[WHOOSH]

I dig your new suit.
It just screams,

"I'm the Beyonder,
and I'm overcompensating."

You think you're special.

But you're not the only one
who can build armor.

I'm not the only one.
I'm just the best.

[GRUNTS] [BEYONDER] No more
tricks, no more running.

You want to destroy my experiment?
Then I will see you destroyed.

Your world, your friends,
everything you love... destroyed.

[GROWLS]

[LAUGHS]

What, no jokey banter?

Good!
[GRUNTING]

[YELLING]

[ALARM BEEPING]

Your tech is dull, without edge.

My tech... has bite.

Your tech bites.

[CRIES OUT]

Aw. You seem to have
taken on a little damage.

I'll make it more.

I've got one trick left up my sleeve.

Huh?

What is this?

Just a little something I cooked up.

Aah!
[GROANS]

My systems... disrupted.

But how?

Old-school computer virus.

From info I hacked from your Citadel.
[GRUNTS]

[PANTS]
[ELECTRICITY ARCING]

I always win, Stark.
If you'd done what I told you,

Battleworld could've been your triumph.

[GRUNTS]

BREAKING NEWS ALERT:

Battleworld is over.
You didn't win.

[YELLS]

This energy won't hold for long!

By the Seven Suns of...
[GRUNTS]

[GHOST RIDER YELLS]

Doctor Strange!

Get up!

There isn't much time!

Strange, I cannot
complete this by myself!

It needs your magic!

[GRUNTS WEAKLY]
Can't cast. But you can.

Take this.
[GRUNTS]

[GROANS]

The Eye of Agamotto.

By the Seven Suns of Cinnibus,

by the Hoary Hosts of Hoggoth,

and by the Lights of the
All-Seeing Eye of Agomotto!

Aahh!

You did it.
Now we need the spark.

[ROARS]

I'm back, and I feel like smashing!

[YELLING]
[GROWLING]

[YELLS]

[GRUNTS]

[GRUNTS]

Loki...

you appreciate and understand power.

Join me, and help me
crush the Avengers.

Have you not been paying attention?

I suppose it's not
your fault for asking.

But let me connect the dots for you

in a way your simple brain
can understand.

I am an Avenger!

[YELLS]

[GRUNTS]

Nice job, Loki.
I'll take it from here.

Thor, the Bifrost needs your lightning!

Hurry!

Could've fallen in line,

but you persisted in defying me!

[AVENGERS GRUNT]

[YELLS]

[STRAINING]

The lab mice always think
they have a chance.

But they're wrong.

See, I make the rules,
and the cold truth is,

you have no chance.

You never did.

[JANE] Oh, there's always a chance.
[GRUNTS]

[GRUNTS, GROANS]

Jane!

Say good-bye, Dr. Foster.

[GRUNTING]

It's quicksand!

[STRAINS, YELLS]

[LAUGHING]

[GRUNTING]
No!

Thor!
[GRUNTING]

[LAUGHS]

Jane!
[GRUNTS]

Aahhh!
[GRUNTS]

[GRUNTS]
[GRUNTING]

[YELLS]

The hammer went to Jane!

Nay. Jane took the hammer.

This can't be happening.

You know what they say, Beyonder.

Whoever is worthy
will possess the power of Thor!

[CRIES OUT]

You... bested me.

But my experiment's not done.

Yes, it is.

Curse you, Avengers!

[CRIES OUT, ECHOING]

Asgard.

'Tis restored.

So is Earth, and everything else.

We did it! We won!

Whoo! Yeah!

[ANT-MAN]
Ha-ha-ha! Yeah! All right.

We stomped the Beyonder
and saved the universe.

I don't know about you,
but I need a vacation.

And we could never
have done it without Loki.

Uh, I am surprised as anyone
at how this turned out.

Well done, Loki.

But before we return home,
a little housekeeping.

I need you to return
the Eye of Agamotto to me.

No.
