Later at night as Logan was making Natasha a peanut butter sandwich and cutting it in half with one of his claws as Natasha was having a hologram meeting with nebula and rocket  Okoye
Carol  and  Rhodey  as Logan put the plate next to Natasha as she took a bite out of it

Rocket: yeah  we boarded  that highly suspect  warship  Danvers pinged

Nebula: it was an infectious garbage scow

Rocket: (looking at carol) so thanks for the hot tip

Carol: well you were closer

Rocket: yeah and now we smell like garbage

Natasha: (looking at Okoye) you get a reading on those tremors

Okoye: twas a mild subduction under the African plate

Logan: do we have a visual  how are we handling it

Okoye: nat  Logan   it's an earthquake under the ocean  we handle it by not handling it

Natasha: carol  are we seeing you here next month

Logan: yeah  Laura misses you guys

Carol: not likely  sorry

Rocket: what you gonna get another haircut

Carol: listen fur face  I'm covering a lot of territory  the things that are happening on earth are happening everywhere  on thousands of planets

Rocket: all right  all right  that's a good point  that's a good point

Carol: so you might not see me for a long time

Natasha: all right  uh well  this channel's always active  so if anything goes sideways  anyone's making trouble where they shouldn't  comes though us (meaning her and Logan)

(As all of them agreed)

Logan: all right 

(As all of them leave except Rhodey)

Natasha: (sighs) where are you

Rhodey: Mexico  the federales found a room full of bodies  looks like a bunch of cartel guys  never even had a chance to get their guns off

Natasha: it was probably a rival gang

Rhodey: except it wasn't  it's definitely Barton  what he's done here  what he's been doing for the last few years  I mean the scene  that  he left  I gotta tell you guys   there's a part of me that doesn't even wanna find him

Logan: Rhodes!  Enough  (seeing how upset Natasha is getting)

Natasha: will you find out  where he's going next  (taking a bite of her peanut butter sandwich)

Rhodey: nat

Natasha: please  (as she's a few seconds away from crying)

Rhodey: okay  (as his hologram leaves)

As Natasha starts breaking down crying as Logan kneeled down at her chair and hugged her trying to comfort her as he kisses the top of her head 
As they hear a familiar voice

Steve: you know  I'd offer  to cook you both dinner  but you seem pretty miserable already

Natasha: you here to do your laundry

Steve: and to see two friends

Logan: clearly your friends are fine

Steve: you know  I saw a pod of whales
When I was coming over the bridge

Natasha/Logan: (in unison) in the Hudson

Steve: there's fewer ships  cleaner water 

Natasha: you know  if you're about to tell us to look on the bright side  I'm about to hit you in the head with a peanut butter sandwich

(As the three chuckles)

Steve: sorry  force of habit  (as he seats on one of the chairs) you know  I keep telling everybody  they should move on
And grow  some do  but not us

Natasha: if we move on who does this

Logan: maybe it doesn't need to be done

Natasha: I used to have nothing  and then I got  this   this job  this family
My own family as well (looking at Logan) and I was better because of it and even though  they're gone  I'm still trying to be better

Steve: I think the three of us need to get a life

Logan: you first

As the monitor from outside showed Scott Lang outside at the gate

Scott: uh hi is anyone home  this is Scott Lang  we met a few years ago  in Germany  and I  got really big  ant man 
Ant man  I know  you know  I know you know that  can you buzz me in  I need to talk to you guys

Steve: is this an old message

Natasha: it's the front gate

Later as they let Scott in as he paces back and forth  thinking

Steve: Scott 

(As he looks up at him )

Steve: are you alright

Scott: have any of you guys studied quantum physics

Natasha: only to make conversation

Scott: alright  so  five years ago  right  right before  Thanos  I was in a place called the quantum realm and the quantum realm it's like it's own microscopic universe to get in there You have to be incredibly small 
Hope  she's my uh  she was my  she was supposed to pull me out and then Thanos happened  and I got stuck in there

Logan: I'm sorry  that happened  that must have been very long five years

Scott: yeah but that's just it  it wasn't 
For me it was five hours   see the rules of the quantum realm aren't like they are up here  everything  is unpredictable (sees a peanut butter sandwich) is that anybody sandwich  I'm starving

Steve: Scott  what are you talking about

Scott: (taking a bite of the sandwich) so what I'm saying is time works differently in the quantum realm
The only problem is right now  we don't have a way to navigate it but  what if we did  I can't stop thinking about it
What if  we could somehow control the chaos and we could navigate it  what if
There was a way that we could enter the quantum realm  at a certain point in time but then exit the quantum realm at another point in time like  like before Thanos

Steve: wait  are you talking about a time machine

Scott: no no of course not no not a time machine  this is more like um  yeah like a time machine  I know  it's crazy  it's crazy  but  but  I can't stop thinking about it  there's got to be  some  it's crazy

Natasha: Scott  I get emails from a raccoon so nothing sounds crazy  anymore

Scott: so who do we talk to about this

Logan: I know a guy  retired  but might be able to  help

Scott: who

Logan: Tony stark
