All deference to the Man Who Wouldn't be King, but it's rigged.

You bet your ass!

Hill

Steve, he said a bad language word.

Rogers
[Thoroughly exasperated]

Did you tell everyone about that?!

[After the other Avengers have tried and failed to lift Mjölnir]

The handle is imprinted, right? Like a security code. "Whoever is carrying Thor's fingerprints," I think, is the literal translation.

Yes, well, that's a very interesting theory. However, I have a simpler one. [Easily lifts the hammer and flips it with one hand] You're all not worthy.

[Slowly]

Worthy.

No, how could you be worthy? You're all killers.

Rogers

Stark…

JARVIS…

Sorry, I was asleep… Or… I was a dream.

[Tapping his phone]

Reboot Legionnaire OS, we got a buggy suit.

There was a terrible noise… And I was tangled in… in… strings… I had to kill the other guy. He was a good guy.

Rogers

You killed someone?

Wouldn't have been my first call. But, down in the real world we're faced with ugly choices.

Who sent you?

[Replaying Tony's voice]

"I see a suit of armor around the world."

Ultron!

In the flesh. Or, no, not yet. Not this…chrysalis. But I'm ready. I'm on mission.

What mission?

Peace in our time.

Tony, maybe this might not be the time...

Really? That's it? You just roll over, show your belly, every time somebody snarls?

Only when I've created a murder-bot!

We didn't, we weren't even close! Were we close to an interface? [Bruce shrugs]

Rogers

Well, you did something right, and you did it right here. The Avengers were supposed to be different from S.H.I.E.L.D.

Anybody remember when I carried a nuke through a wormhole?

Rhodey
[Sarcastically]

Nope. Never come up.

Saved New York?

Rhodey

Never heard that.

Recall that? A hostile alien army came charging in through a hole in space…we're standing 300 feet below it. We're the Avengers. We can bust arms dealers all the live-long day, but…that up there? That's the endgame. How were you guys planning on beating that?

Rogers

Together.

We'll lose.

Rogers

Then we'll do that together, too.

Thor didn't say where he was going for answers?

Rogers

Sometimes my teammates don't tell me things. Kind of hoping Thor would be the exception.

Yeah, give him time. We don't know what the Maximoff kid showed him.

Rogers

"Earth's Mightiest Heroes". She pulled us apart like cotton candy.

Seems like you walked away alright.

Rogers
[Stares at Tony]

Is that a problem?

I don't trust a guy without a dark side. Call me old-fashioned.

Rogers

Well, let's just say you haven't seen it yet.

You know Ultron's trying to tear us apart, right?

Rogers

Well, I guess you'd know. Whether you'd tell us is a bit of a question.

Banner and I were doing research.

Rogers

That would affect the team.

That would end the team. Isn't that the mission? Isn't that the "Why we fight"? So we can end the fight? So we get to go home?

Rogers
[Splits wood with bare hands]

Every time someone tries to win a war before it starts, innocent people die. Every time.

No way we all get through this. If even one tin soldier is left standing, we've lost. There's going to be blood on the floor.

Rogers

I got no plans tomorrow night.

Maybe I should take a page out of Barton's book. Build Pepper a farm, hope nobody blows it up.

Rogers

The simple life.

You'll get there one day.

Rogers

I don't know. Family, stability... the guy who wanted all that went in the ice 75 years ago.

Rogers
[Last lines of the film: Steve and Natasha walk through the new Avengers campus to meet their new teammates]

They're not the '27 Yankees, but they'll do.

We got some hitters.

Rogers

They're good. They're not a team.

Let's beat 'em into shape.

Rogers
[They walk into a large training room; we get shots of Sam Wilson, Rhodes, Vision, and Wanda]

Avengers...

I'm sorry, that was odd. Thank you.

Rogers

Thor, you helped create this?

I've had a vision. A whirlpool that sucks in all hope of life and at its centre is that. [points to the Mind Stone]

What, the gem?

It's the Mind Stone. It's one of the six Infinity Stones, the greatest power in the universe unparalleled in its destructive capabilities.

Rogers

Then why would you bring it here?

Because Stark is right.

Oh, it's definitely the end times.

The Avengers cannot defeat Ultron.

Not alone.

Rogers

Why does your Vision sound like J.A.R.V.I.S.?

Stark

We reconfigured J.A.R.V.I.S.'s matrix to create something new.

Rogers

I think I've had my fill of new.

You think I'm a child of Ultron?

Rogers

You're not?

I'm not Ultron. I'm not J.A.R.V.I.S.. I'm uh... I am...

I looked in your head and saw annihilation.

Look again.

Barton

Yeah. Her seal of approval means jack to me.

Their powers, the holes in our heads, Ultron himself, they all came from the Mind Stone and nothing compared to what it can unleash. But with it on our side-

Rogers

Is it? [to Vision] Are you... on our side?

I don't think it's that simple.

Barton

Well better get real simple real soon.

I am on the side of life. Ultron isn't. He will end it all.

Stark

What's he waiting for?

You.

Where?

Barton

Sakovia, he's got Nat there too.

If we're wrong about you; if you're the monster that Ultron made you to be...

What will you do?. I don't want to kill Ultron. He's unique, and he's in pain. But that pain will roll over the Earth, so he must be destroyed. Every form he's built, every trace he's built on the net. We have to act now, and not one of us can do it without the others. Maybe I am a monster. I don't think I'd know if I were one. I'm not what you are; I'm not what you intended. So there may be no way that you can trust me, but we need to go.

[Vision holds Thor's hammer to him. After a brief, awkward pause, Thor takes his hammer and Vision walks off.]

Right... [pats Stark on the shoulder] Well done.

Rogers

Three minutes. Get everything you need.
