[PEOPLE SCREAMING]
Here's a little holiday greeting
I've been wanting to send to the Mandarin.
JARVIS: I've compiled
a Mandarin database for you, sir.
I know you're a coward.
So I've decided
there's no politics here.
It's just good old-fashioned revenge.
The name is an ancient Chinese war
mantle meaning "advisor to the king."
There's no Pentagon, it's just you and me.
South American insurgency tactics.
And on the off-chance you're a man,
here's my home address.
10880 Malibu Point.
90265. I'll leave the door unlocked.
[EXPLOSION]
STARK: Lots of pageantry going on here.
Lots of theater.
[EXHILARATING MUSIC PLAYING]
- STARK: Hey.
- Don't hurt the face! I'm an actor.
JACKSON: Okay, look,
Trevor, this is our last day.
And, uh, we've covered
a lot of the logistics.
Uh, your recruitment by Aldrich Killian,
the creation of an amalgam warlord
by his think tank
Whom I brought to life. Carry on.
The one question that most people ask me
when I tell them that I know you is that,
"How could he have not known
the history of The Mandarin himself?"
- He was a warrior-king.
- [INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC PLAYING]
JACKSON: Inspired generations of men
through the Middle Ages,
perhaps even further back in time.
[GUN COCKS]
- That's nice.
- [JACKSON SIGHS]
Not really.
You see, there's somebody
who wants to meet you.
- Do I know him?
- No, but you took his name.
[CAPTIVATING MUSIC PLAYING]
- [ROARS]
- RAZOR FIST: The men are ready.
XU WENWU: We will rebuild The Ten Rings
to what it once was.
