[Teleporting to the front of a fleeing crowd]
Kneel before me! [The crowd flees the other way; Loki teleports in that direction] I said... KNEEL!!! [Slams the staff on the ground, releasing a thunderous shockwave that scares the crowd into submission] Is not this simpler? Is this not your natural state? It is the unspoken truth of humanity that you crave subjugation. The bright lure of freedom diminishes your life's joy in a mad scramble for power. For identity. You were made to be ruled. In the end, you will always kneel.
OG Old German Man
[Stands up]
Not to men like you.
[With a smug smirk]
There are no men like me.
OG Old German Man
There are always men like you.
Look to your elder, people. LET HIM BE AN EXAMPLE! [fires a blast from his scepter at the old man, only to have Captain America jump in and deflect it back with his shield, knocking Loki down]
Captain America Ya know, the last time I was in Germany and saw a man standing above everybody else, we ended up disagreeing.
Captain America Alright, listen up. Until we can close that portal, our priority is containment. Barton, I want you on that roof, eyes on everything. Call out patterns and strays. Stark, you got the perimeter. Anything gets more than three blocks out, you turn it back, or you turn it to ash.
Hawkeye [To Iron Man] Can you give me a lift?
Right. Better clench up, Legolas. [Flies Barton to the indicated rooftop]
Captain America Thor, you gotta try and bottleneck that portal. Slow 'em down. You got the lightning. Light the bastards up. [Thor flies off on Mjölnir. Captain America continues speaking to Widow.] You and me, we stay here on the ground, keep the fighting here. And Hulk?
Captain America [Hulk turns to Captain America.] [Points to Chitauri]
Smash.
[Hulk grins and leaps into battle.]
Captain America [Thor and Iron Man's fight has been halted by Captain America]
Now, I don't know what you plan on doing here.
I've come here to put an end to Loki's schemes!
Captain America Then prove it. Put that hammer down.
Uh, yeah, no. Bad call! He loves his ha-- [Thor throws him across the forest with a single swing]
[enraged]
You want me to put the hammer down?!
Captain America [Thor angrily lunges himself at Captain America with his Mjolnir, but he blocks himself with his shield, which it sends Thor flying back to the ground. He, Thor and Iron Man gets up, panting.]
Are we done here?
Captain America [Iron Man and Captain America are trying to fix the engine] [over comms]
OK, the relays are intact! What's our next move?
Even if I clear the rotors, this thing won't re-engage without a jump. I'm gonna have to get in there and push.
Captain America Well, if that thing gets up to speed, you'll get shredded.
Then stay in the control unit, it can reverse polarity long enough to dis-engage mag-lev and that should--
Captain America Speak English.
Captain America Stark, you seeing this?
Seeing. Still working on believing.
Captain America Doctor Banner. Now might be a really good time for you to get angry.
B Banner
That's my secret, Cap. I'm always angry. [transforms into Hulk]
