EXT. SANCTUM SANCTORUM, ROOF - DAY (AVENGERS 1)

THE BATTLE OF NEW YORK RAGES. CHITAURI CHARIOTS ZOOM OVER THE VILLAGE.

SUDDENLY...BOOM, THE CHARIOTS EXPLODE.

ON ONE SIDE OF THE SANCTUM ROOF, A TINY, HOODED FIGURE hurls
jagged mandalas into the sky.

ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROOF...SMART HULK LANDS. He headsfor a door, but...

ANCIENT ONE (O.S.)
I’d be careful going that way...

He turns to find...THE ANCIENT ONE STARING AT HIM.

ANCIENT ONE (CONT'D)
We just had the floors waxed.

SMART HULK THINKS, THEN GROWLS, TRYING TO INTIMIDATE HER.

SMART HULK
Hulk...does what...Hulk want?

ANCIENT ONE
Yes, I suppose that would be thecase.

JUST THEN, ON THE ROOF OPPOSITE, A1 HULK TACKLES A CHITAURICHARIOT, RIPPING IT IN HALF. HE ROARS, LEAPING AWAY.

Smart Hulk blinks, sheepish. The Ancient One looks at him.

ANCIENT ONE (CONT'D)
Care to explain?

SMART HULK
I’m looking for Dr. Strange.

ANCIENT ONE
You’re about five years too early.

Stephen Strange is currently
performing surgery, 20 blocks thatway. What do you want with him?

He finally notices THE EYE OF AGAMOTTO HANGING FROM HER NECK.

SMART HULK
Well, that, actually.�

ANCIENT ONE
Ah. I’m afraid not.

SMART HULK
I’m seriously sorry but...I wasn’tasking.

Smart Hulk cracks his knuckles and moves in. She smiles.

ANCIENT ONE
You don’t want to do this.

SMART HULK
You’re right, I don’t. But I needthat stone, and I don’t have a lotof time to debate it.

He reaches for it. THE ANCIENT ONE SLAMS HER PALM INTO HISCHEST AND BLASTS BRUCE BANNER RIGHT OUT OF SMART HULK.

“ASTRAL BANNER” hangs in the air, staring at his frozen SmartHulk body. He looks at his human hands, overwhelmed.

ASTRAL BANNER
No, no, noShe topples Smart Hulk’s body with one finger.

Whump.

ANCIENT ONE
Now. Let’s start over, shall we?
