Marvel's Avengers Assemble (2013) s02e24 Episode Script

Move along.
Move along.
The Avengers have fallen.
This land is now claimed for the great, exiled Attuma! Sorry, fish boys, new sheriff in town.
- Has the news not reached Atlantis? - Hyperion! The Squadron Supreme rules this planet now.
One of you will take this information back to your master But only one.
Attention, Earth.
No longer must you rely on the failed efforts of the Avengers for your protection, for that pathetic team is no more.
We have neutralized all other so-called "heroes.
" We, the Squadron Supreme, are now Earth's mightiest heroes, and we lead with a firm hand.
Disperse.
Disperse.
Under our rule, we offer the Earth complete protection and expect absolute obedience in exchange for your safety.
Absolute rule is not protection.
It is tyranny.
Words are all you have left to fight with, Asgardian.
But we have a weapon the Avengers were always too weak to use.
Fear.
It will keep people in line.
It always does.
You are wrong.
When battles reach their lowest point, that is when true heroes rise to their greatest heights.
Then it's too bad there are no heroes left.
- Yet I remain standing.
- Yes, as a symbol of failure.
Picking up your signal loud and clear, Thor.
Nice work placing that wire, Ant-Man.
Good thing Nighthawk doesn't sweat the small stuff.
I'm tired of playing dead.
- I want action! - Not yet, Hulk.
Falcon outmaneuvered Nighthawk to give us the upper hand, so he's calling the shots.
We gave the Squadron exactly what they wanted.
They think we've been destroyed.
Now it's time for a campaign so out of the box even Nighthawk won't see it coming.
Let's show the Squadron they can never destroy hope.
Avengers Assemble! Unacceptable act of aggression.
Disband or be eliminated.
Tardiness is forbidden.
Move along.
Citizen, you are outdoors after legal curfews.
Unacceptable Seamless work, Falcon.
Nighthawk's robot police are brilliantly designed.
Impossible to take out remotely, unless you're an Avenger.
Shooting EMPs? Couple of arrows would do the same trick.
And prove we're still alive, which is exactly what we don't want the Squadron Supreme to know.
Your machines are a joke.
Someone is targeting them.
It's always someone else's fault, isn't it? I can see this thing fried from the inside.
Time to face facts.
You aren't as infallible as you think.
A mechanical glitch makes you disloyal? That's some glitch.
We were a team for one reason.
And now, with the Avengers finally gone, maybe we don't have to do things your way anymore, Nighthawk.
If we ruled this planet like I did Utopia, we would never put faith in failed machinery.
Let's not forget who orchestrated the destruction of the Avengers, Zarda.
You all faced them and failed.
You insult our history together.
Hey, don't pull a muscle patting yourself on the back, buddy.
- Did you somehow forget - Listen to that.
The happy family's having a serious tiff.
Just like Falcon predicted.
- Shh.
- If we show our subjects the consequences of resistance, we won't need robots to keep them in line.
I've located a S.
H.
I.
E.
L.
D.
base where world diplomats are in hiding.
Go show them our brand of diplomacy.
Attention representatives of the world.
There is no need for nations now that the Squadron is here.
You shouldn't have tried hiding from us.
Zarda! The Avengers.
You're still alive.
I can neither confirm nor deny that report, Ambassador.
It's a secret, and we need to keep it that way for now.
Of course.
After saving our lives, that's the least we could do.
That is how you send a message.
Brute force.
Much better than your mind games, Nighthawk.
I wouldn't congratulate yourself, Hyperion.
According to my scans, there was no one in that building when you blew it up.
What? But how? Who here opened their big mouth about our plans? Clearly it was you, Speed Demon.
Your mouth runs even faster than your tiny feet.
Me? It was definitely Hyperion.
If he fought half as well as he bragged, we wouldn't have any of these problems.
I do not brag, I state facts.
Maybe Nuke was the leak.
He's awfully quiet.
I think before I speak.
Might wanna try it sometime, you ox.
Enough! The Avengers are gone, so we can finally go our separate ways.
We divide the spoils of this planet.
I'll take that territory.
Why should you get first choice? The decisions have been made.
Fine, giving you the honor of my presence has served its purpose.
Now let me rule my land alone.
The less I see of the rest of you, the better.
It's happening, they're splitting up.
It's impressive, Sam.
I bet even Nighthawk can't deny how well you got them to play right into our hands.
Tony's right.
This only worked because you brought a new style of leadership when he and I were out.
We wouldn't have thought of this.
With the Squadron separated we can focus our attacks.
You know what each of you need to do.
Let's go get our world back.
Finally, no more bickering and outsized egos.
Let's see how well they control their territories without my robotic police force.
What? The Avengers? No, I saw them die.
Who is fighting in their name? I'll find them and destroy them.
Let me make the "finding" part easier for you.
You forgot to change the locks.
Guess you assumed everyone with keys was gone.
This is a trick.
Tony Stark is no more.
I think you got faulty data.
Look, I won't waste your time.
One chance.
Give up now, and we won't destroy you.
Trick or not, you won't leave here alive.
I'll take that as a "No.
" No more miracle escapes for you, Stark.
You've got a blaster? Well, we've got a Thor.
Mjolnir, to me! I have been waiting for this moment.
Sorry, Nighthawk, don't mean to insult your ego but we've got more urgent things to deal with.
Stark! Squadron! The Avengers are alive! I need you at the tower im Sorry.
Can't let you give the others spoilers.
Hyperion? Zarda? Does anyone read me? I don't think so.
You get the picture? Nighthawk gave this continent to me.
I'm the boss now.
Nobody likes a boss who micromanages.
Hawkeye? I watched you all get destroyed.
Well, don't believe everything you see.
Trying to outrun me? Hilarious.
What is this? Your powers basically amount to getting from point A to point B quickly, which aren't much use in a box.
You think a closet will stop me? No, but a closet with a Hulk inside? Different story.
He's still a little annoyed about that whole Speed Time thing you did.
- One speed belt, as ordered.
- Tony? Time for step two.
You will not escape me a second time, Thor Odinson.
For I now know you're not a true warrior.
I seem to be escaping quite well, Zarda.
Are you not supposed to be a great hunter? You dishonor your family name.
There is no greater dishonor than fighting alongside humans.
Humans, unlike the Squadron, understand the strength of working together.
Is that not correct, Falcon? Looks like you could use a little boost.
What treachery Your plan is to force me into a containment cell? Sorry, buddy.
Not today or any day.
- Tony, package is on its way.
- Perfect timing.
- Zarda? - I can't turn it off! Falcon, two more all boxed up.
Now, Ant-Man! So long, Doctor Spectrum.
Got it.
I thought my last inhibitor device was good, but this should give you complete control of the Prism's powers.
Cap, you still in there? Still me.
It's taking a lot of will, but the inhibitor's giving me control.
Let's see what this Prism can do.
Avengers, you should see this.
Cap did it.
Finally.
This is where I've deserved to be all along.
Keep it coming.
Bring it all, until this planet has nothing more to offer.
Huh? What is that? That Is my cue.
I don't know how you survived, but the weakest Avenger against someone with near infinite power? Uh Huh? The wavelength of Earth's yellow sun fuels your powers.
Can't say the same for all colors.
Blue, for example.
And in case you haven't noticed There are no weak Avengers.
Well, taking back over the Tower's tech wasn't so hard.
Guess who just outplanned your plan? You No, this was a team effort.
Thanks to Falcon, we picked off the Squadron one by one.
Hey, Nighthawk, remember when you wanted me to join your team? I still think I made the right decision.
You're all that's left of your knitting circle.
But not for long.
So true, because I've just enough power for my final contingency.
Good thing you have me, Nighthawk.
This guy's as weak as a kitten under this blue sun.
Then you've discovered your true purpose, Nuke.
Do it.
Always good to have a back-up nuclear power source.
Thanks for the power boost, Nuke.
Let me show the Avengers what I can do with it! The Earth has proven itself unworthy of our rule.
Judgment has been passed.
Avengers, Nighthawk's turned Hyperion into a doomsday device and we've only got minutes to stop him from detonating the planet.
Okay, Falcon, please tell me your new style of leadership can handle a Hyperion capable of blowing up the world.
We're down, Avengers, but not out.
Still some Prism power left.
Anything else to discuss? Whoa! I hate cosmic power trips! Well, that was express service.
Next time I'll just take the local.
The Prism's energy's gone.
We pushed it too far with the sun stunt.
Which is a shame, because it would be pretty handy right now.
Nighthawk.
Trying to leave the planet like a rat escaping a sinking ship.
The ship isn't sunk yet.
Nighthawk's trying to get one step ahead of us.
Let's show him the Avengers won't fall for that again.
Right.
I've learned a thing or 10 from you today, Falcon.
I'll handle Ego McGravelly Voice, but what about Hyperion? Time for some spelunking.
Navigation, set a course for the interplanetary space beyond Saturn.
Even I didn't predict you'd be foolish enough to follow me, Stark.
That's because I'm trying out some new material.
Unlike you, I listen to my team.
At Hyperion's current rate, he'll be able to destabilize the Earth's core within minutes.
Nothing like cutting it close.
Avengers.
You have done nothing more than leap into your own graves.
Look out.
You know, if you destroy the planet, you destroy your own teammates.
My teammates are nothing more than tools.
And if a tool is no longer useful, get rid of it.
You see, that's the difference between you and me.
I actually like my team.
They make me stronger.
Sounds like the Squadron could've used more company picnics.
I don't need others to be strong.
- Okay.
- Exposed ARC reactor.
Another difference between us, my uniform doesn't have such flaws.
The Squadron Supreme is superior to the Avengers in every way.
Nighthawk abandoned you on Earth while he escaped.
You owe him no loyalty.
Nighthawk is a necessary ally, not a friend.
Desire for power unites us.
This whole thing only works if we can get Hyperion to use up Nuke's power.
Keep him fighting.
I don't think that's going to be a problem.
That was a team-up move.
You should try one sometime.
Oh, no, you don't.
Told you.
If Hyperion's running out of power, he sure isn't doing a good job of showing it.
Oh, come on.
That face plate pulled the whole outfit together.
You're weakened.
Your armor half-destroyed.
You should've realized this battle was over the moment you came onboard my ship.
Unpredictable, right? Falcon taught me that.
No! Reverse the magnetic charge? The whole ship will be destroyed! What's the matter, evil genius? Not how you predicted He still has enough to make it to the Earth's core.
Somehow we've got to hit him with even more force.
What if I told you I can get us some backup? Lots of backup.
You lost me.
Humans aren't the only species on the Earth.
I called the neighbors.
Turns out insects don't want their planet destroyed any more than we do.
Get them off of me! You've destroyed us, Stark! Look at that, Nighthawk.
Pays to have friends in high places.
Hyperion, quickly, I need help.
Help? Did I hear that right? Yes, your time is up, Avengers.
There's your help.
Here, let me give you a hand.
Well, no amount of scented candles is gonna get that Hyperion smell out of my bedroom.
They better not have touched my glass figurines.
Then, uh Maybe you shouldn't go in there.
What? And Fury's certain that the vault can hold the entire Squadron? They built a new wing just for their highly-powered guests.
Well, as long as they keep them separated I don't think we'll be hearing from the Squadron again.
Nothing's more powerful than a solid team.
Well, that, and proper logo placement.
Thor? Ah, a vast improvement.
All right, Avengers.
Let's get back to work.
