Okay, boys.
Capture and contain.
If he fights you know what to do.
- We've lost Mallen.
Where is he? - What is this? What is this? Something is here! Agent Coulson, come in.
Agent Dugan! Anyone! Respond! I cannot believe we gonna be 18 in just a few months.
I don't even know what high school went! You know what they say.
Time flies when you're rocketing around in high-tech body-armor.
No, kidding.
So, you decided where you go in school, yet? I'm thinking either Empire State or the Air Force.
The Air Force? I can't really see you as military guy, Rhodey.
Man, my life is so crazy with Stane and Hammer and now Gene being back.
I have no time even to think about it.
I guess M.
I.
T.
, because Reed Richards teaches there? - What about you, Pep? - I'm gonna be a SHIELD agent.
Dah.
In fact, I'm applying at local SHIELD recruitment center, right now! You guys can hang on if you want.
Wow, can we? That sounds pretty exciting watching you fill out forms.
Oh, so what's with the guard? It's like those British things.
More for looks and anything else.
It's not like anyone is going to attack the place.
Sorry, you have to be 18 to join.
Excuse me? You have to be 18 to apply for any tech.
, clerical, or maintenance jobs.
Maintenance? No, no, no, no.
I wanna be a SHIELD agent.
You know, carry laser pistols, photon grenades and latest high-tech super-secret surveillance.
Then you better study a four-year school first.
Every SHIELD agent has to have a college degree.
All SHIELD recruiting stations and public facilities are now closed.
Repeat, all public facilities are officially on lock down.
Station 4B is under attack.
Control, what's the situation? The fugitive is where? That's two blocks away! You kids, get out of here! Now! What the heck is going on? What What's that thing suppose to be? - Tony, where's your armor? - Inside Rhodey's car.
What do we gonna do? SHIELD fired me.
They say I'm not psychologically sound.
I show you how.
You are not fit to wear those uniforms! At least he's distracted.
Hey, man! I still have like 4 years of payments on her! - My backpack, itâs gone! - I found it! Tony, catch! Is that all you weak excuses of SHIELD agents have got? Okay, whoever you are, close up! Don't move! Iron Man.
Easy, friend.
Your vitals are getting nuts.
Calm down.
There is no reason for this.
Oh yes, there is.
Lots of reasons, when SHIELD knows I take you down barehanded, they'll have to take me back.
Ha, I can't even feel that.
Computer, give me a full bio-scan.
Scanning incomplete.
Biology unknown.
Insufficient data.
Oh great, could it be any worse? Don't answer that, computer! What are you? Some kind of zombie? Has size beyond human.
Lower surface temperature! Tony is getting his better butt headed to him.
I wish I had my armor.
Get up Iron Man! Don't let him beat you down! Get up! Whatever you are, you gotta have a central nervous system.
Let's see how you like this! Heh, I can feel it in my belly.
Almost tickles.
Do you know pain, Iron Man? Let me tell you all about it.
Warning.
Thorax unit breach.
I'm through playing.
Let's finish this! You gonna burst inside that suit.
They gonna have to pour you out.
I'm gonna fry your heart! - Nooo! - No, no, no, no! Iron Man, get out of there! Power at 22% and falling.
Warning.
Extensive damage to user's heart.
Heart monitor shutting down.
- Tony! - He's not getting up! He's not moving! This is a special agent Romanoff.
Code name: Black Widow.
Iron Man is down.
Repeat, Iron Man is down.
I have Mallen in my sight.
Engaging target.
Mallen, step away from Iron Man and put your hands on your head! This is your first and last warning! What took you so long? Is Nick Fury with you? Does he see what I can do? General Fury doesn't have time for the likes of you.
Stand down, now! Alright.
I'll show Nick Fury and the world.
Do you want me? Come and get me! I am invincible! I cannot be touched! You fired me? You ruined me! Bring here Fury, now! Or I'll tear the city apart! He killed dozens of agents because Fury fired him? Overreacted much? Widow to base.
I've got him on the run.
Looks bad, vitals low.
Unresponsive.
Hill to base.
I'm gonna need medical prep for emergency surgery, stat! Tony, oh no! No! Wait! He's alive! He's gonna be alive! I know he is.
Right, Rhodey? Yeah.
Yeah gotta be.
Agent Hill? What is his status? He'll die, if we don't get this armor off! Right now! Hack into his comm frequency.
Get me his contacts.
What? It's Tony! This is General Nick Fury of the "Strategic Homeland Intelligence Enforcement and Logistic Division".
Come in.
Please respond.
General Fury? Oh wow, it's an honor, sir.
Eh how is Iron Man doing? His heart is failing.
He's gonna die.
Unless you can help us to get his armor off him.
He is he is that bad? Yes, of course, General Fury.
I'll remotely unlock his armor, right now.
We have to act fast, or he won't make it.
Black Widow to base.
I've lost Mallen.
Repeat.
The fugitive is still at large.
Nick Fury? Agent Mallen, you're the best agent, SHIELD has seen in decades.
I know you'd recognize my talent, sir.
Everyone has their time.
You're lucky you survived.
Where where am I? Welcome back to the world of the living, Mr.
Stark.
Oh, man I really hope I'm dreaming this.
Calm down, Tony, your secret is safe here.
SHIELD has suspected, you're Iron Man, for months.
You think we wouldn't do our homework? As a matter of national security? This is all too much.
Wait, when did you become a good guy? I was always a good guy.
I just used to play for a different team.
Tony let me put you plane and simple.
Your days of being Iron Man are over.
I'm afraid he's telling you the truth.
We're able to save you but your heart, your entire system has been through too much trauma.
I'm fine.
I just need to rest.
Tony, if you suit up and fight again you won't make it out alive.
Your heart just can't take it, son.
You're only human.
Rest now, kid.
It's a lot to take in.
A few weeks ago I wanted to quit being Iron Man.
Now I'm forced to? Take me back, sir.
I promise I've got my head back together.
I didn't mean to lash out at Agent Dugan.
You have serious dissociative problems, Agent Mallen.
You are relieved of duty.
You're failure, a fraud.
You've not fit to serve.
Shut up! Shut up! Fury! Fury! I'm going to tear you limb from limb! Stark, you have visitors.
- Tony! - Pepper! Rhodey? What are you Oh man, we heard everything.
Is it true, you can't be Iron Man anymore? I don't know.
I Agent Hill, I've been replaying the fight in my mind and it doesn't make sense.
How was Mallen able to endure all that? How can he be so powerful? I overheard you mentioned a serum.
What did he steal? Serum is called Extremis.
It's a bio-enhancer.
A few billion nanotips suspended into a carrier fluid.
- How does it work? - It rewrites our system.
Using nutrients and body mass to build a better network.
The formula is a modern attempt to recreate the original super-soldier serum from World War II.
The serum is that old? This new serum isn't.
It's one of thousands of attempts to copy an accidental breakthrough lost more than 70 years ago.
Every version of Extremis affects humans a little differently.
No kidding! It turned Mallen into mega-scary psycho-monster.
This is the original super-soldier.
SHIELD recently discovered him floating frozen in the Arctic circle.
That's Captain America! Everyone knows who he is.
He's fought in World War II against the Red Skull and Hydra.
He is the greatest hero who ever lived.
Sorry, Tony.
Wow, that's really him? Alive frozen? Yes, he is alive, we're just trying to figure out how to revive him.
And we were hoping, when you recover, you could help us with that.
How can Mallen be anywhere near the same ball part as Captain America? Remember, Extremis is a modern simulation.
It's a best guess.
We've lost the original formula, and we can't simply re-create Captain America.
If the Extremis formula can heal the body and enhance my biology, I want it.
Can you inject me with the reconfigured low-dose? - What? - It could turn you into a monster.
You're out your skull, son! We're still in testing phases.
Did you see what Mallen did to me, out there? He's gonna do same to you.
To everyone.
He is a biological combat machine.
And he won't stop.
Pull up the com screens.
That's it! This time, I'm leading the intercept personally.
If Mallen wants me, he's got me! Hill, prep the Mandroids.
I wanna help.
Yeah? Then get some rest.
Remember what the Doc said about your heart.
Iron Man needs to retire.
So, I'm just curious, Agent Hill, what's the process of becoming a SHIELD agent? - Pep, I don't think this is the time.
- Can't I go just directly into boot camp? All I'm asking, is to shoot lasers and spy on people.
Is that so wrong? Tony, we brought you some yummy mess hall food.
- Where did he go? - Oh no, Stark, you didn't! Access denied.
Open this door now, Stark! I gotta wire the armor directly into my brain.
I need to "be" the suit.
Only a tiny bit should do it.
Better only a drop.
Stand back! Tony? Oh my gosh, your chest! My heart feels warm again.
Tony, you You took Extremis? Are you okay? I'm better than okay.
I feel like new.
More alive than I've ever felt.
Whoa.
Easy, man! You gonna crush my spine.
Are you out of your mind? Stark, you could have killed yourself! Or worse, turn into another Mallen! I only took a tiny amount.
Enough to repair my heart.
Even if it was a gamble, I'm not going to give up being who I am.
Ever again.
Mallen! General Fury.
Welcome to the afterlife.
We're all dead here.
You, me, this whole stinking world.
It's over.
You're under arrest.
Get on your knees and put your hands on your head or I will knock that skull off your shoulders.
I told you, I would be the greatest SHIELD agent who ever lived.
Now you'll be known as the ex-SHIELD agent with the longest prison sentence.
You're gonna have to do more than send toy robots.
I don't believe this! Mandroids.
I knew we shouldn't have bought Hammer tech.
I need you to check Tony's vitals.
What's going on, I'm not Are you doing this somehow? I can sense the technology around me.
That computer screen over there.
It says I'm completely healed and my heart rate is normal.
How do you know that? I know this is gonna sound crazy, but I can sense the data inside the machine - with my mind.
- Woah.
Tony, what have you done? If I can talk to computer systems here, I wonder if I can interact with my suit.
I can't believe it.
I'm seeing it but I'm not believing it.
I told you, I can sense technology.
The cybernetic link with my armor feels like it's part of me.
I'm taking down Mallen.
Once and for all.
I'm really getting sick of you, freak! I'm gonna send you back into your afterlife, Mallen.
First.
Fury, you're mine! Die! Mallen, we have some unfinished business.
You and me! What? Where did he go? I'd have killed you the last time, if it wasn't for SHIELD.
I had your heart in my hands, Iron Man! Do you want this? I think I will help you upgrade your security systems, so this never ever happens again.
You know, when you turn 18, you could be a big part of a team, I'm putting together.
Thanks Fury, but I'm not much of a team player.
Well, whatever you plan to do, son, just remember, SHIELD could always use you.
Thanks, General Fury.
I'm not sure what the future holds, but, you know I'm okay with that.
