Marvel's Avengers Assemble (2013) s05e23 Episode Script

This looks like the place.
Okay, then.
Let's wrap this up.
I don't wanna miss breakfast.
Seems like every time we take down one HYDRA base, another one pops up.
That's kind of HYDRA's thing.
Scan for hostiles comes up with nada.
Weird.
Then we agree.
This is clearly a trap.
What say we spring it? Let HYDRA know the Avengers are here.
I got this, Cap.
One boom, coming up.
[GRUNTING.]
Hawkeye, your hands aren't in any shape for I said, "I got this.
" Relax, friend.
There are certain [THUNDER RUMBLING.]
to be plenty of doors to go around.
Mm.
[LAUGHING.]
[YELLS.]
[IRON MAN.]
The complete absence of people isn't creepy at all.
Seriously, where are all the HYDRA agents? [ALL GASP.]
[BLACK WIDOW.]
It's Arnim Zola! He's seen better days.
Looks like someone's been using him for spare parts.
Whoever it was might still be in the base.
All right.
Split up.
Section sweep, level by level.
[GROANS.]
- No! - Aah! Aah! [GROANS.]
She will never take me alive! Not my body! Not my technology! I will not allow it! Arnim Zola's technology belongs to HYDRA! [GRUNTS.]
She will never have it! - Do you hear? She will never Aah! - [YELLS.]
[STATIC.]
[GASPS.]
[IRON MAN.]
Perfect timing, as always.
Greetings, Avengers.
Glad to see you, buddy.
Thanks for the assist.
- Black Panther! - [GRUNTS.]
That was a mighty fine trick you played against me when last we met.
With the box and my arm [HIGH-PITCHED MOCKING VOICE.]
Oh, look! It's me, Thor, being shot into space! It is good to see you under better circumstances, Thor.
All of you.
But what has happened to your eye? Oh, this? It's nothing.
Just a scratch, really.
- I totally won the fight.
- [HAWKEYE.]
Hey, your kingship.
Why didn't you let us know you were here before the big entrance? Wait.
Let me guess.
It's a secret.
It is no secret.
I merely hoped to use the element of surprise once I was aware Arnim Zola was present.
Stealth is difficult with five Avengers, especially the noisy Asgardian.
Aha! He's right! I am the Prince of Thunder, after all.
So, we're supposed to believe you being here is just a lucky coincidence? [BLACK PANTHER.]
Actually, I believe there is more going on here than you realize [GRUNTS.]
Coming here was a mistake, Avengers.
One that HYDRA will now make you regret.
- [LAUGHING.]
- [IRON MAN.]
And HYDRA decided to show.
[GRUNTS.]
Hey! What gives? Your shield [GRUNTS.]
keeps [GRUNTS.]
getting in the [GRUNTS.]
way! [GRUNTS.]
That's what it's for.
[GRUNTS.]
[LAUGHING.]
Incoming! [AVENGERS GRUNT.]
[ALL GRUNT.]
[RED SKULL.]
After them! Typhoid Mary, reactivate Zola.
But, but, but there's Avengers to blow up.
[GROWLS.]
Why don't I ever get to have any of the fun? Wake up, you stupid toaster! [GROANS.]
What? What is happening? Who has broken my view screen? Ummmm [CHUCKLES.]
[CROWBAR CLANGS.]
You look so tired, Captain.
[GRUNTING.]
Are the years finally beginning to take their toll? No chance, Red Skull.
I can punch you all day.
[GRUNTS.]
[GRUNTING.]
Crimson Widow.
What are you doing here? Let me guess.
Being an evil pain in the butt.
I'm right, right? Mock HYDRA at your peril.
[GRUNTING.]
[CRYING OUT.]
Black Widow, you assist Iron Man.
That will allow me to take Red Skull.
[GRUNTS.]
Let me remind you again! We don't take orders from you.
[BOTH GRUNTING.]
[YELLS.]
[STRAINING.]
You're so mechanical.
It's like fighting a textbook.
I don't need to get creative to best you.
[GRUNTS.]
Aahh! I always feel sort of bad hitting someone when they're not looking.
Aah! Well, I have no such compunctions, iron buffoon.
[HAWKEYE STRAINING.]
[GRUNTS.]
[LAUGHING.]
What is this? The incredible archer seems to have lost his hands.
[CLANGING.]
Let's see if I can take care of the rest of him! Allow me to put you out of your misery.
Hawkeye! [SCREAMING.]
Two for one! [LAUGHS.]
Wunderbar! [GASPING.]
[YELLS.]
Huh? You can let go now.
[GRUNTS.]
Next time, help the other Avengers.
I can take care of myself.
You are in no shape to be in the field.
Your hands My hands are this way because of your lies! I never lied to you.
Yes, I kept secrets, but I had reasons.
When I tried to explain, you would not hear me.
[LAUGHING.]
Wha So, this was my fault.
Well, you didn't give me much reason to listen, did ya? I needed you to trust me, but you would not, even though we were friends.
Key word being "were.
" Yes, it seems you never forget, no matter how lost the cause is! And what is that supposed to mean? Huh? [RUMBLING.]
I know that ship.
Madame Masque is why I am here.
I have been hunting her.
She has become more dangerous than any of us could have imagined.
And we have all just fallen into her trap.
Huh? No! Not her! Not now! Not again! Whitney Frost.
No.
Madame Masque.
Well, well.
I finally meet the traitor scientist.
Come to rejoin the ranks of HYDRA at last? Hardly, Skull.
I have a vision of a new future.
It's why I used Zola to draw you all here today.
To give the Avengers and HYDRA one final chance to build a better world, my way.
HYDRA will never relinquish power to you.
Then I will take it and use it to free the world from conflict.
A world free of conflict is easier said than done.
I've watched the Avengers try to make the world better and HYDRA try to conquer it.
But both sides have failed.
Under my guidance, I can bring peace and order.
Um, it sounded like you said peace and order under you.
Uh, the Avengers don't help tyrants.
We stop them.
Very well.
But I still have a use for you and the Skull.
[GRUNTS.]
[GRUNTS.]
Uh, guys, I can't move.
[GRUNTS.]
Aah! [GROANS.]
Boss, hang tight.
We'll get you out of that.
[STRAINING.]
Unlikely.
[GRUNTS.]
She has me again! [YELLS.]
[ALL YELL.]
That's enough, Madame Masque.
Avengers Assemble! [GRUNTS.]
No.
No! We are not doing this! I am here to end all the fighting.
Whatever you're planning to do to Iron Man, you'll have to get through us first.
I know.
[GRUNTS.]
[ALL YELL.]
Listen, Madame Masque, what you're doing here kind of the opposite of saving the world.
She doesn't want to save the world, Stark.
Like HYDRA, she merely wants to conquer it.
You're so limited in your thinking.
Between the two of you, you control 81 percent of the world's technology.
Once I couple them with my own, I'll be unstoppable.
And you, the only ones who could stop me, will be gone.
And for the first time in human history, the world will work the way it should.
[LAUGHING.]
Delightful.
While I detest your motives, I greatly admire your ruthlessness.
Here's a tip.
If the Red Skull likes your plan, you're on the wrong side.
In a few minutes, there won't be any more sides.
[IRON MAN GROANING.]
[STATIC.]
[ASCENDING WHIRRING.]
[GROANS.]
[GRUNTS.]
- How are we not crushed? - [THOR.]
That would be me.
My pleasure.
It's not heavy.
[GRUNTS.]
Not heavy at all.
[GRUNTS.]
Just hang in there.
We'll all get through this.
Ugh! You Avengers and your oafish blundering put us here in the first place! Be quiet, Zola, or I'll find a way to unplug you.
Ah, yes.
Good.
Another television joke.
That never gets old.
Please, tell me another.
Instead of getting us out of here! "Us"? There is no "us.
" These are our enemies.
[THOR.]
This is your world too.
If we allow Madame Masque to take it, then it will be as dire for you as for us! If we're going to solve this, we're going to have to work together.
[ALL GROAN.]
Ugh! Fine.
Here.
Use this.
This oughta be enough to blast through.
[BEEPING.]
Fire in the hole! [LAUGHING.]
- That's one problem solved.
- [CAPTAIN AMERICA.]
And one to go.
The big one.
Can you not see? Masque will destroy you all.
The Red Skull is finished.
And from this, a new HYDRA will arise! A HYDRA run by me, the unstoppable Arnim Zolaaaaaa! [CRASH.]
We're not leaving the boss behind, right? - Right? - Mm-hmm.
If we have any chance of stopping Masque, it has to be now.
[BOTH GRUNT.]
[PULSATING WHIRRING.]
[BEEPING.]
[ASCENDING WHIRRING.]
A few more moments, and all the most advanced technology of the Avengers, and HYDRA, and Stark will be Really? This is getting a little annoying.
Not too late to end this and give up.
[YELLS.]
[YELLS.]
[GRUNTS.]
[YELLS, GRUNTS.]
[STRAINING.]
You're at a severe disadvantage.
I've planned for every attack, every strategy.
Did you plan for this? [GRUNTS.]
[YELLS.]
[GRUNTS, YELLS.]
[GRUNTING.]
[BOTH STRAINING.]
[YELLS.]
[ALL YELL, GRUNT.]
[ALL GROAN.]
[YELLS.]
Aah! No! [GRUNTS, GROANS.]
[ALL YELLING.]
[WIND HOWLING SOFTLY.]
[EXHALES.]
Now, let's finish this.
[HAWKEYE.]
Oh, Whitney, what have you done? - We have to help them.
- We will, but not until we have a plan to defeat Madame Masque.
[SIGHS.]
She is trying to seize control of the world, and you still see her as I see what I want.
In that case, then look at what she did to the Avengers.
Those are your friends.
Madame Masque is not.
Back in New York, Baron Zemo wasn't who you thought he was.
Black Widow wasn't either.
That was in the past.
And I am atoning for it as we speak.
I honestly don't know who my friends are anymore, and I don't think you know either.
That is true, and yet the world still needs us right now.
So, what do we do? It's just you and me, and I've only got the one arrow.
In my hunt for Dr.
Frost, I have done considerable research on the mask she wears.
It draws its power from her ship.
If I can board that ship and destroy it, we will be able to stop her.
Well, she's gonna realize what you're doing.
- You got a plan B for that? - Yes.
You.
I'm sorry, wha Hey! Whoa! [GRUNTS, SIGHS.]
[NERVOUS CHUCKLE.]
Hey, Whitney.
Are you here to stop me, Hawkeye? Even if I wanted to, I don't think I could.
Are you saying you understand what I want to do? I'm saying I'm willing to talk about it.
Can we do that, Whitney? Just talk about it? What happened to your hands? Let me see them.
So much damage.
Tony tried to fix 'em.
What did they do to you? [SIGHS.]
You know, really, I think I did it to myself.
By not listening to my friends.
Maybe that's a mistake you don't have to make.
Don't worry.
There's no mistake I can't fix now.
- Whitney, what are you doing? - I've learned wonderful things about this mask, this technology.
With it, I have the power to change the world.
My hands.
They're Fixed.
The Avengers and HYDRA are afraid of me.
They think I'm too powerful.
But they can't stop me.
Nothing can stop me now.
Gotta say, I've heard this before.
All they have to do is submit, right? Not submit.
Entrust.
Entrust me with their power.
To do a better job than they ever could with it.
After everything that's happened, you're with me on that, right? Clint, you are with me, aren't you? I've always been with you.
Then tell me where Black Panther is right now.
[SIGHS.]
He's trying to destroy your ship.
I'm supposed to be distracting you.
[YELLS.]
[YELLS.]
One more should do it.
No! [GROANS.]
You've always been a sneaky little cat.
Remove the mask, Dr.
Frost.
Come to your senses.
It's not about the mask.
This has always been me! My moment! My time! I've learned so much from you, from Wakanda.
[GRUNTS.]
Forget what you think you know of me and the Shadow Council.
Trust me.
Trust that I can rule the world better than you.
Your choices have brought you here and made you who you are.
I cannot ignore them, just as I cannot ignore my own choice to stand for Wakanda, to stand for the world.
I'm making everything better.
I have the power to stop the fighting and end the conflict.
Look around.
Have you stopped the fighting, or have you just become a part of it? You've had your chance.
[CRYING OUT.]
I will repair the damage to my ship, just as I'll repair the damage you all have done to the world, and then I'll rule it.
Not while [STRAINING.]
there is still an Avenger standing! Hawkeye Time to choose, Clint.
Change the world or break it.
No.
Save it.
[CRIES OUT.]
[YELLS.]
I'm sorry, Whitney, but you're wrong.
The world isn't meant to be controlled by one person.
Even if that person is you.
Now I finally see.
You're just like the rest of them! That ship is corrupting you! No.
You don't understand.
This ship is a part of me.
- [GRUNTS.]
- [GRUNTS.]
I need it.
[CROSSBONES.]
I got ya, boss! [TYPHOID MARY LAUGHS.]
Whitney, let it go! [STRAINING.]
I can hold it! I can still save it! You and I found something on the bottom of the ocean.
And I tried to turn it into something beautiful.
No! Hawkeye, I am so very sorry.
She made her choice.
So did I.
Time for you to make yours.
The Avengers need you.
I do not think we can ever go back to the way things were.
[HAWKEYE.]
No.
And I don't think you and I will ever be friends again.
Too much said and done.
But maybe we can find a new way forward.
Neither of us is perfect, but you are a good man, Clint.
Whitney Frost knew that.
The two of you saved the world tonight, despite your differences.
That's how we got through this.
Together.
- Hear, hear! - Aye.
Shuri made this for you.
To replace what you lost.
Put it behind your ear.
[TRILLING.]
Made from Vibranium.
Very top secret.
Now is the right moment for you to have them.
Thanks.
Come on, guys.
Let's go home.
Breakfast's on Tony.
[CHUCKLES.]
It always is.
Yeah, I don't know if any of you know this, but T'Challa is a king.
He could easily pick up the tab.
I know of a great place in Wakanda.
Much has happened recently and I will tell you all about it.
