Pepper Potts
[after Stark's one night stand with Christine]

I have your clothes here; they've been dry cleaned and pressed. And there's a car waiting for you outside that will take you anywhere you'd like to go.

Christine Everheart

You must be the famous Pepper Potts.

Pepper Potts
[smiling]

Indeed I am.

Christine Everheart

After all these years, Tony still has you picking up the dry cleaning.

Pepper Potts

I do anything and everything Mr. Stark requires. Including, occasionally, taking out the trash. [still smiling] Will that be all?

Tony Stark

I don't like it when you have plans.

Pepper Potts

I'm allowed to have plans on my birthday.

Tony Stark

It's your birthday? [she nods] I knew that. ...already?

Pepper Potts

Yeah, isn't that funny? It's the same day as last year.

Tony Stark

Well, get yourself something nice from me.

Pepper Potts

I already did.

Tony Stark

And?

Pepper Potts

Oh, it was... very nice. Very tasteful. Thank you, Mr. Stark.

Tony Stark

You're welcome, Ms. Potts.

Pepper Potts
[Repeated lines]

Will that be all, Mr. Stark?

Tony Stark

That will be all, Ms. Potts.

Tony Stark
[Pepper greets Tony when he comes home from Afghanistan]

Hmmm. Your eyes are red. Tears for your long lost boss?

Pepper Potts

Tears of joy. I hate job hunting.

Tony Stark

Yeah, well, vacation's over.

Tony Stark

I just want you to reach in, and gently lift the wire out.

Pepper Potts

Is it safe?

Tony Stark

Yeah. It should be fine. It's just like Operation, just don't let it touch the socket or it'll go beep.

Pepper Potts

What do you mean operation?

Tony Stark

It's just a game. Nevermind. Just gently lift the wire, ok? Alright.

Pepper Potts

You know, I—I, uh—I don't think that I'm qualified to do that.

Tony Stark

No, no you're fine.You are the most capable qualified trustworthy person I've ever met. You'll do great. Is it too much to ask? 'Cause--

Pepper Potts

Ok, ok.

Tony Stark

—I really need your help here.

Pepper Potts

Oh. Ah. Ew, there's pus!

Tony Stark

It's not pus. It's an inorganic plasmic discharge, it's from the device, not my body.

Pepper Potts

It smells.

Tony Stark

Yeah, it does.

Pepper Potts

I thought you were finished making weapons?

Tony Stark

It is. This is a flight stabilizer. It's perfectly harmless.

Tony Stark
[The stabilizer violently discharges, destroying part of the workbench and sending Tony flying.]

I wasn't expecting that.

Tony Stark
[As they're dancing]

Am I making you uncomfortable?

Pepper Potts

Oh, no, I always forget to wear deodorant and dance with my boss in a room full of people I work with in a dress with no back.

Tony Stark

Well, you look great, you smell great. But I could fire you if that would take the edge off.

Pepper Potts

I honestly don't think you could tie your shoes without me.

Tony Stark

I'd make it a week.

Pepper Potts

Really. What's your social security number?

Tony Stark
[long pause]

Five.

Pepper Potts

Five? Yeah, you're missing just a couple of digits there.

Tony Stark

The other eight? But I've got you for the other eight.

Pepper Potts
[Pepper walks in on Stark as he's trying to get the suit off]

What's going on here?

Tony Stark
[after a pause]

Let's face it, this is not the worst thing you've caught me doing.

Pepper Potts

Are those bullet holes?
