Thanos
The Mad Titan Thanos acquires all six infinity stones on Earth.
“I know what it’s like to lose. To feel so desperately that you’re right… yet to fail, nonetheless. It’s frightening. Turns the legs to jelly. But I ask you, to what end? Dread it, run from it… destiny arrives all the same. And now, it’s here. Or should I say… I am. The Tesseract. Or your brother’s head. I assume you have a preference. Your optimism is misplaced, Asgardian. That was a mistake. There are two more stones on Earth. Find them, my children, and bring them to me on Titan. If you consider failure experience. Undying? You should choose your words more carefully. No resurrections this time.” — Thanos
“What’s wrong, little one? What’s your name? You’re quite the fighter, Gamora. Come. Let me help you. Look. Pretty, isn’t it? Perfectly balanced, as all things should be. Too much to one side or the other… here. You try. Uh-uh. Concentrate. There. You’ve got it.” — Thanos
“Everyone in the galaxy knows you’d sell your own brother… if you thought it would add even the slightest trinket… to your pathetic collection. I know you have the Reality Stone, Tivan. Giving it to me will spare you a great deal of suffering. I imagine it’s like breathing for you. You do understand. Not even you would surrender something so precious. Then you’re more of a fool than I took you for. Last chance, charlatan. Where’s the stone? Why? Why you, daughter?” — Thanos
“Is that sadness I sense in you, daughter? In my heart, I knew you still cared. But one never knows for sure. Reality is often disappointing. That is, it was. Now… reality can be whatever I want. I counted on it. There’s something we need to discuss, little one. Ah, the boyfriend. Oh, daughter. You expect too much from him. She’s asked, hasn’t she? Mmm. Do it! I like him.” — Thanos
Dr. Strange
“Seriously, you don’t have any money? I’ll tell the guys at the deli. Maybe they’ll make you a metaphysical on rye. Dollars? Which is? What do you want? Who? Tony Stark. I’m Doctor Stephen Strange. I need you to come with me. Oh, uh, congratulations on the wedding, by the way. We need your help. It’s not overselling it to say that the fate of the universe is at stake. Space. Reality. Power. Soul. Mind. And Time. He could destroy life on a scale hitherto undreamt of. Are you seriously leaning on the Cauldron of the Cosmos? No can do. Stark Raving Hazelnuts. A bit chalky. Our oath to protect the Time Stone cannot change. And this stone may be the best chance we have against Thanos. Well, if we don’t do our jobs. Protecting your reality, douchebag. Who could find Vision then? Oh, great. Not at the moment, no. Might wanna use it. Certainly not. I speak for myself. You’re trespassing in this city and on this planet. Doctor Banner, if the rest of your green friend won’t be joining us… it stays with me.”
“It’s a simple spell but quite unbreakable. You’ll find removing a dead man’s spell troublesome.”
Tony Stark
“Slow down, slow down. I’ll spell it out for you. No, I’m not. Look, you know how you’re having a dream, and in a dream you gotta pee. Okay. And then you’re like, ‘oh, my God. There’s no bathrooms. What am I gonna do? Oh, someone’s watching. Oh, I’m gonna go in my pants.’ Yes. Okay. Right, that’s the point I’m trying to make. Apropos of that, last night I dreamt we had a kid. It was so real. We named him after your eccentric uncle. Uh, what was his name? Morgan! Morgan. Naturally. Expecting. Yes? I had a dream about it. It was so real. I’m glad you brought this up, ’cause it’s nothing. It’s just a housing unit for nanoparticles. No, this is detachable. It’s not a… I know, I had the surgery. I’m just trying to protect us… and future usses and that’s it. Just in case there’s a monster in the closet. Instead of, you know… you know me so well. You finish all my sentences. Yeah. You know what there should be? No more surprises. We’re gonna have a nice dinner tonight. Show off this Harry Winston. Right? And we should have no more surprises. Ever. I should promise you. I will. Thank you. I’m sorry, you giving out tickets to something? And who’s ‘we?’ Bruce. You okay?”
“Tell me his name again. This is it. What’s our timeline? Did you seriously just say ‘hitherto undreamt of?’ Is that what it is? I’m going to allow that. If Thanos needs all six, why don’t we just stick this one down a garbage disposal? And I swore off dairy… but then Ben & Jerry’s named a flavor after me. Not bad. Whatever. Point is, things change. Yeah, so conversely, it may also be his best chance against us. What is your job exactly? Besides making balloon animals. Yeah, that’s the thing. Two weeks ago, Vision turned off his transponder. He’s offline. Yeah. I didn’t lose him. He’s more than that. He’s evolving. Shit. Probably Steve Rogers. Maybe. But… it’s not that easy. God, we haven’t caught up in a spell, have we? The Avengers broke up. We’re toast. Cap and I fell out hard. We’re not on speaking terms. Flip phone. Say, Doc, you wouldn’t happen to be moving your hair, would ya? You okay? Help him! Wong! Look alive! Friday, what am I looking at? Hey! You might wanna put that Time Stone in your back pocket, Doc! Friday, evac anyone south of 43rd Street. Notify first responders. I’m sorry, Earth is closed today. You better pack it up and get outta here. He means get lost, Squidward. Banner, you want a piece? That’s right. It’s been a while. It’s gonna be good to have you, buddy. Where’s your guy? It’s no time for a thing. That’s a thing right there. Let’s go. Dude, you’re embarrassing me in front of the wizards. It’s okay. Hey, stand down. Keep an eye on him. Thank you. It’s nanotech. You like it? A little something I… gotta get that stone outta here, now. Exactly. Bye. Really, really good. Really good. Do you plan on helping out? Hammer.”
“Kid, where’d you come from? Uh, he’s from space. He came here to steal a necklace from a wizard. Kid, that’s the wizard. Get on it. Hang on, kid. Wong, you’re invited to my wedding. Give me a little juice, Friday. Unlock 17:A. Pete, you gotta let go. I’m gonna catch you. We’re too high up. You’re running out of air. Happy trails, kid. Friday, send him home. Yeah, I’m fine. I just think we might have to push our 8:30 res. Just ’cause I’ll probably not make it back for a while. Yeah. Honey, I’m sorry. I’m sorry, I don’t know what to say. Pep.”
Pepper Potts
“You’re totally rambling. You lost me. Yeah. Right. Right. And then you wake up and in real life you actually have to pee. Yeah. Everybody has that. Right. So you woke up… …and thought that we were… yeah. No. If you wanted to have a kid… you wouldn’t have done that. You’re not helping your case, okay? You don’t need that. Shirts. God. You should have shirts in your closet. Yes. Hi.”
“Tony? Oh, my God. Are you all right? What’s going on? Why? Tell me you’re not on that ship. God, no, please tell me you’re not on the ship. Come back here, Tony. I swear to God. Come back here right now. Come back. I’m going too.”
Wong
“Attachment to the material is detachment from the spiritual. Oh. Wait, wait, wait. I think I have 200. Rupees. Uh, buck and a half. I wouldn’t say no to a tuna melt. At the dawn of the universe, there was nothing. Then… boom. The Big Bang sent six elemental crystals… hurtling across the virgin universe. These Infinity Stones each control an essential aspect of existence. We swore an oath to protect the Time Stone with our lives. A Hunk of Hulk of Burning Fudge is our favorite. Banner! I have him. The Time Stone’s been taken. The Sanctum remains unguarded. What will you do?”
Bruce Banner
“Thanos is coming. He’s coming. Hey, Tony. Pepper. Oh. Thanos. He’s a plague, Tony. He invades planets. He takes what he wants. He wipes out half the population. He sent Loki. The attack on New York, that’s him. No telling. He has the Power and Space Stones. That already makes him the strongest creature in the whole universe. If he gets his hands on all six stones, Tony… that’s a thing? Okay, guys. Could we table this discussion right now? The fact is we have this stone. We know where it is. Vision is out there somewhere with the Mind Stone… and we have to find him now. What do you mean? What? Tony, you lost another super-bot? Call him. No. Broke up? Like a band? Like… like the Beatles? Tony, listen to me. Thor’s gone. Thanos is coming. It doesn’t matter who you’re talking to or not. Go! Go! We got it! Mmm, no, not really. But when do I ever get what I want? Okay. Push! Okay. Shh. Let me just… I need to concentrate here for a second. Come on, come on, man. God! I don’t know. We’ve sorta been having a thing. I know. Tony, I’m sorry. Either I can’t or he won’t. Damn it. Where’d that come from? Tony, you okay? How we doing? Good? Bad? I’m trying. He won’t come out. Come on, Hulk! What are you doing to me? Come out! Come out! Come out! No! What do you mean ‘no?’ Oh! Ugh. Where you going? I’m gonna make a call.”
Peter Parker
“Ned, hey. I need you to cause a distraction. Hey, man. What’s up, Mr. Stark? A field trip to MoMA. Uh, what is this guy’s problem, Mr. Stark? On it! Not cool. Gotcha! Wait! Uh, Mr. Stark, I’m being beamed up. But you said save the wizard! I can’t breathe. Yeah. That makes sense. Mr. Stark, it smells like a new car in here! Oh, come on. Oh, my God! I shoulda stayed on the bus.”
Peter Quill
“Sing it, Drax! ‘Cause we’re nice. And maybe whoever it is will give us a little cheddar cheese for our effort. Which isn’t the point. I mean, if he doesn’t pony up… bingo! All right, Guardians, don’t forget this might be dangerous… so let’s put on our mean faces. Groot, put that thing away, now. I don’t wanna tell you again. Groot. Whoa! You got some acorns on you, kid. Oh, my God. How the hell is this dude still alive? I’m muscular. Yeah, right. What? Gamora, do you think I’m… wow. This is a real wake-up call for me. Okay. I’m gonna get a bowflex. I’m gonna commit. I’m gonna get some dumbbells. Stop massaging his muscles. Wake him up. Oh, boy. Stepfather, technically. And she hates him as much as you do. I feel your pain as well, because… I mean, it’s not a competition, but I’ve been through a lot. My father killed my mother. And then I had to kill my father. That was hard. Probably even harder than having to kill a sister. Plus, I came out with both my eyes, which was… no, you’re not. You will not be taking our pod today, sir. No. No, I’m not. This is my voice. Are you mocking me? He’s trying to copy me. No, no. Knowhere? It’s a place. We’ve been there. It sucks. Excuse me, that’s our food. If it’s with the Collector, then it’s not safe. Only an idiot would give that man a stone. The Avengers? Uh, except for that I’m the captain. That’s my backpack. Look, this is my ship. And I’m not goin’ to… wait, what kinda weapon are we talkin’ about here? Don’t you think that we should all have a weapon like that? For the record… I know that you’re only going with him because it’s where Thanos isn’t.”
“Gamora. Do you know if these grenades are the blow-off-your-junk kind or the gas kind? Because I was thinking about hanging a couple on my belt right here. But I don’t want to if they’re the… yeah, sure. Which is what the grenades are for. Uh, I’m sorry. What’s the favor? What? What do you know? If it’s so important… shouldn’t I? Why does somebody always have to die in this scenario? I mean, I’d like to. I really would. But you… okay. Okay. Dude. How long have you been standing there? An hour? You’re eating a zarg-nut. Mmm, no.”
“This place looks deserted. Yep, I’m picking that up too. Let’s put down right here. Drax. Drax. Drax, wait. Not yet, not yet, not yet. Drax. Drax, Drax, Drax. Listen to me. He doesn’t have the stone yet. If we get it, then we can stop him. We have to get the stone first. Yeah. Okay. Gamora, Mantis, you go right. The other right. That was quick. Let her go, Grimace. I told you to go right. You let her go! No. Like to think of myself more as a Titan-killing, long-term booty call. Let her go. I’m gonna blow that nutsack of a chin right off your face. I told you to go right. I love you too.”
Rocket Raccoon
“Why are we doing this again? I get that, but why are we doing it? Exactly! All right. Language! Ever since you got a little sap, you’re a total d-hole. Now, keep it up, and I’m gonna smash that thing to pieces. Looks like we’re not getting paid. Wipers. Wipers. Get it off. But who are you kidding, Quill? You’re one sandwich away from fat. You know you can’t eat dumbbells, right? Uh, what are you doing? Uh… Quill, are you making your voice deeper? Nidavellir is real? Seriously? That place is a legend. They make the most powerful, horrific weapons to ever torment the universe. I would very much like to go there, please. Rabbit? You’re very perceptive. Let me just ask the captain. Oh, wait a second, it’s me! Yeah. I’ll go. Go sit down. Is it weird that I wanna do it even more now? I got it figured out. We got two ships and a large assortment of morons. So me and Groot will go with the pirate angel here. And the morons will go to Knowhere to try to stop Thanos. Cool? Cool. You know, you really shouldn’t talk that way to your captain, Quill. Come on, Groot. Put that game down. You’ll rot your brain.”
Gamora
“It’s a distress signal, Rocket. Someone could be dying. Which isn’t the point. Hey! The entire time I knew Thanos, he only ever had one goal. To bring balance to the universe by wiping out half of all life. He used to kill people planet by planet, massacre by massacre. If he gets all six Infinity Stones… he can do it with the snap of his fingers like this. Enough! We need to stop Thanos. Which means we need to find out where he’s going next. Thor, why would he go to Knowhere? How do you know… he’s not going for one of the other stones? Then we have to go to Knowhere now. If we don’t go to Knowhere and Thanos retrieves another stone… he’ll be too powerful to stop.”
“Mother! Where’s my mother? Mother! My mother. Where is my mother? Gamora. I need to ask a favor. One way or another, the path that we’re on leads to Thanos. If things go wrong… if Thanos gets me… I want you to promise me… you’ll kill me. I know something he doesn’t. And if he finds out, the entire universe could be at risk. If I tell you, you’d know too. Only if you wanna die. Just… trust me. And possibly kill me. Swear to me. Swear to me on your mother. Oh. Are you serious? You knew I’d come. Peter. Now? Really? Peter. Not him. You promised. You promised. I love you more than anything.”
Drax the Destroyer
“We take his ship. Wow. He is not a dude. You’re a dude. This… this is a man. A handsome, muscular man. It’s true, Quill. You have put on weight. It’s like a pirate had a baby with an angel. Including my own. Gamora is the daughter of Thanos. You are. You’re imitating the god-man. It’s weird. That’s a made-up word.”
“An hour. I’ve mastered the ability of standing so incredibly still… that I become invisible to the eye. Watch. Buy my movement… was so slow… that it’s imperceptible. I’m sure I’m invisible. Damn it.”
“I’m reading movement in the third quadrant. It’s him. Today… he pays for the death of my wife and daughter. No. No. For Ovette, for Camaria. Thanos!”
Steve Rogers
“Let’s get you on the jet. Home.”
Mantis
“We are arriving. What happened? He is anxious, angry. He feels tremendous loss and guilt. It’s like his muscles are made of Cotati metal fibers. Wake. He just did it again! He must be going somewhere. Like Kevin Bacon? Hi, Drax. Sleep. No!”
Groot
“I am Groot!”
New York
“Holy shit. We’re all gonna die! There’s a spaceship! What’s going on? Oh, my God! What’s the matter with you kids? You never seen a spaceship before?”
Ebony Maw
“Hear me and rejoice. You have had the privilege of being saved by the Great Titan. You may think this is suffering. No. It is salvation. Universal scales tip toward balance because of your sacrifice. Smile. For even in death, you have become Children of Thanos. Let him have his fun. My humble personage… bows before your grandeur. No other being has ever had the might… nay, the nobility… to wield not one, but two Infinity Stones. The universe lies within your grasp.”
“Hear me and rejoice. You are about to die at the hands of the Children of Thanos. Be thankful… that your meaningless lives are now contributing… Stonekeeper. Does this chattering animal speak for you? He exhausts me. Bring me the stone. Your powers are quaint. You must be popular with children. Then I’ll take it off your corpse. You’ll only wish you were dead. No!”
“Zehobereians. Choose a side or die. One side is a revelation… the other an honor known only to a few. Now, go in peace to meet your maker.”
Proxima Midnight / Corvus Glaive
“Father we will not fail you.”
“Give up the stone, and she lives. Get up. I can’t. You’ll never get the chance again.”
Thor
“You talk too much. We don’t have the Tesseract. It was destroyed on Asgard. You really are the worst brother. No! You’re going to die for that. No! No. Loki.”
“Who the hell are you guys? You seem to know a great deal about Thanos. Your father killed my brother. Families can be tough. Before my father died, he told me that I had a half-sister… that he imprisoned in Hel. And then she returned home and stabbed me in the eye. So I had to kill her. That’s life though, isn’t it, I guess. Goes round and round and… I feel your pain. I need a hammer, not a spoon. How do I open this thing? Is there some sort of, uh… a four-digit code, maybe? Maybe a birthdate. Taking your pod. Are you mocking me? Stop it. You just did it again. I need you to stop doing that. He’s doing it first. Knowhere. Not anymore. Because for years… the Reality Stone’s been safely stored there with a man named the Collector. Or a genius. There are six stones out there. Thanos already has the Power Stone… because he stole it last week when he decimated Xandar. He stole the Space Stone from me… when he destroyed my ship and slaughtered half my people. The Time and Mind Stones are safe on Earth. They’re with the Avengers. Earth’s mightiest heroes. He may be on the team. I don’t know. I haven’t been there in a while. As for the Soul Stone, well, no one’s ever seen that. No one even knows where it is. Therefore Thanos can’t get it. Therefore he’s going to Knowhere. Hence he’ll be getting the Reality Stone. You’re welcome. Wrong. Where we have to go is Nidavellir. All words are made up. The rabbit is correct and clearly the smartest among you. Only Eitri the Dwarf can make me the weapon I need. I assume you’re the captain, sir. You seem like a noble leader. Will you join me on my quest to Nidavellir? Wonderful! Quiet. The Thanos-killing kind. No. You simply lack the strength to wield them. Your bodies would crumble as your minds collapsed into madness. Mmm, a little bit, yeah. He already is. So cool. I bid you farewell and good luck, morons. Bye.”
Wanda Maximoff
“Vis? Is it the stone again? What does it say? Hey. I just feel you. So there’s a 10:00 a.m. to Glasgow… which would give us more time together before you went back. There’s an 11:00. But you gave Stark your word. Well, there are people who are expecting me too, you know. We both made promises. It works. It works. What are they? No, vision. Vision, if that’s true, then maybe going isn’t the best idea. Vision! Is that even possible? Vis! Hands off. Come on. Come on. Come on, you gotta get up. You gotta get up. Come on. Hey. Hey. We have to go. You asked me to stay. I’m staying. I’m sorry. We just wanted time.”
Vision
“It’s as if it’s speaking to me. I don’t… I don’t know, but something. Tell me what you feel. What if I miss that train? What if I missed all the trains? What if this time I didn’t go back? I’d rather give it to you. Not to each other. Wanda. For two years, we’ve stolen these moments… trying to see if this could work and… I don’t know. You know what, I’m just gonna speak for myself. I think… it works. Stay. Stay with me. Or not. If I’m overstepping… what the stone was warning me about. I have to go. Wanda, I… the blade, it stopped me from phasing. It isn’t supposed to be. My systems are failing. I’m beginning to think we should have stayed in bed. Please. Please leave. Please. Thank you, Captain.”
Natasha Romanoff
“We don’t wanna kill you, but we will. Now, I thought we had a deal. Stay close, check in, don’t take any chances.”
Sam Wilson
“Can you stand? Where to, Cap?”
The Collector
“I don’t have it. I told you. I sold it. Why would I lie? Like suicide. I didn’t know what it was. Magnificent! Magnificent! Magnificent!”
Gamora’s Childhood
“We’ll be safe. We’ll be safe.”
Loki
“Oh, I do. Kill away. All right, stop. I assure you, brother… the sun will shine on us again. Well, for one thing, I’m not Asgardian. And for another… we have a Hulk. If I might interject. If you’re going to Earth, you might want a guide. I do have a bit of experience in that arena. I consider experience experience. Almighty Thanos… I, Loki, prince of Asgard… Odinson… the rightful king of Jotunheim… god of mischief… do hereby pledge to you… my undying fidelity. You… will never be… a god.”
Heimdall
“Allfathers… let the dark magic flow through me one last… time.”
Friday
“Not sure. I’ m working on it. Will do. Yep. Boss, incoming call from Miss Potts. Boss, we’re losing her.”
Asgardian Spaceship
“This is the Asgardian refugee vessel Statesman. We are under assault. I repeat, we are under assault. The engines are dead, life support failing. Requesting aid from any vessel within range. We are 22 jump points out of Asgard. Our crew is made up of Asgardian families. We have very few soldiers here. This is not a warcraft. I repeat, this is not a warcraft.”
