Before I was an Avenger, I made mistakes…and a lot of enemies.

It's funny. My whole life, I didn't think I had any family…turns out I got two.

Alexei Shostakov
[Yelena hits Alexei after his rescue from the Arctic prison]

Why the aggression, huh? Is it your time of the month?

Yelena Belova

I don't get my period, dipshit. I don't have a uterus.

Natasha Romanoff

Or ovaries.

Yelena

That's what happens when the Red Room gives you an involuntary hysterectomy. They kinda just go in and rip out all your reproductive organs. They just get right in there and chop them all away. So you can't have babies.

Alexei
[overlap at 'chop them all away', disgusted at the detail]

OK, OK, you don't have to get so clinical and nasty! [sits]

Yelena

Oh I was just going to talk about Fallopian tubes. OK!

Natasha Romanoff

Here's what's going to happen.

Melina Vostokoff

Natasha, don't slouch!

Natasha

I'm not slouching!

Melina

You're going to get a back hunch.

Alexei Shostakov

Listen to your mother.

Natasha

Oh my God, this…

Alexei

Up, up!

Natasha

All right, enough! All of you!

Yelena Belova

I didn't say anything, that's not fair!

Alexei Shostakov
[over a meal, Natasha and the others debate their previous cover as a family]

Never family, huh? In my heart, I am simple man. And I think that for a couple deep undercover Russian agents, I think we did pretty great as parents, huh?

Melina Vostokoff

Yes, we had our orders, and we played our roles to perfection.

Natasha Romanoff

Who cares? That wasn’t real.

Yelena Belova

What?

Natasha

That wasn’t real. Who cares-

Yelena

Don’t say that. Please don’t say that. It was real. It was real to me. You are my mother. [tearfully glares at Melina] You were my real mother! The closest thing I ever had to one. The best part of my life was fake... [deep exhale] and none of you told me. [bangs table; to Melina] And those agents you chemically subjugated around the globe? That was me. Mmm. [to Natasha] And you, you got out. Dreykov made sure no one could escape. Are you gonna say anything? [Natasha remains silent and looks away] No. [brushes off Melina] Don't touch me. [leaves with vodka bottle]

Yelena Belova

Okay, you got a plan, or shall I just stay, duck, and cover?

Natasha Romanoff

My plan was to drive us away!

Yelena Belova

It's a shit plan.

Natasha Romanoff

How many others are there?

Yelena Belova

Enough.
