[The Avengers are gathered in the lab]
Bruce Banner: All our work is gone. Ultron cleared out, used the internet as an escape hatch.
Steve Rogers: Ultron.
Natasha Romanoff: He's been in everything. Files, surveillance. Probably knows more about us than we know about each other.
Anastasia Ivanova: That's unsettling.
James Rhodes: He's in your files, he's in the internet. What if he decides to access something a little more exciting?
Maria Hill: Nuclear codes.
James Rhodes: Nuclear codes. Look, we need to make some calls, assuming we still can.
Natasha Romanoff: Nukes? He said he wanted us dead.
Steve Rogers: He didn't say dead. He said extinct.
[Anastasia makes a face]
Anastasia Ivanova: Same difference.
Many laugh at Ana's sense of humor. She really had a talent for bringing humor and laughter into tense situations.
Clint Barton: He also said he killed somebody.
Maria Hill: But there wasn't anyone else in the building.
Tony Stark: Yes there was.
[Stark bring up the now-destroyed 3D image of JARVIS' consciousness]
Bruce Banner: This is insane.
Steve Rogers: JARVIS was the first line of defense. He would've shut Ultron down, it makes sense.
Bruce Banner: No, Ultron could've assimilated Jarvis. This isn't strategy, this is...rage.
[Thor barges in and grabs hold of Stark by his throat, holding him up]
Clint Barton: Woah, woah, woah! It's going around.
Tony Stark: [to Thor] Come on. Use your words, buddy.
Thor: I have more than enough words to describe you, Stark.
Steve Rogers: Thor! The Legionnaire.
[Thor lets go of Stark]
Thor: Trail went cold about a hundred miles out but it's headed north, and it has the scepter. Now we have to retrieve it, again.
Natasha Romanoff: The genie's out of that bottle. Clear and present is Ultron.
[Anastasia leans over and whispers to Natasha]
Anastasia Ivanova: Maybe I should call them again. They helped us get the scepter last time.
[Natasha makes a face like she's contemplating it, but shrugs and the sisters turn their attention back to the others in the room]
"Wait, who the hell are you talking about?" Steve's asks.
"1. Language Capsicle. It makes me very uncomfortable when you talk like that." Ana starts and many either make a face of laugh.
"And 2. I'm sure you'll find out later." Ana then continues. Steve, along with everyone else who was very curious about who the sisters were talking about, sighed but turned their attention back to the screen nonetheless.
Dr. Helen Cho: I don't understand. You built this program. Why is it trying to kill us?
[Stark starts laughing, Banner subtly shakes his head at him to get him to stop]
Thor: You think this is funny?
Tony Stark: No. It's probably not, right? Is this very terrible? Is it so... is it so... it is. It's so terrible.
