Everyone is seen preparing for dinner as Fury is heard talking to them. Nat passes a bowl of sweets to Daikon as he smiles at her.
Daikon: Thanks, mom.
Nat: No problem.
Nick: Ultron took you folks out of play to buy himself time. My contacts all say he's building something. The amount of Vibranium he made off with, I don't think it's just one thing.
Steve: What about Ultron himself?
Nick: Ah. He's easy to track, he's everywhere. Guy's multiplying faster than a Catholic rabbit. Still doesn't help us get an angle on any of his plans though.
Tony: He still going after launch codes?
Nick: Yes, he is, but he's not making any headway.
Tony: I cracked the Pentagon's firewall in high school on a dare.
Nick: Yeah, well, I contacted our friends at the NEXUS about that.
Steve: NEXUS?
Bruce: It's the world internet hub in Oslo, every byte of data flows through there, fastest access on earth.
Clint: So what'd they say?
Nick: He's fixated on the missiles, but the codes are constantly being changed.
Tony: *takes a sweet from Daikon's bowl* By whom?
Daikon: Hey!
Nick: Parties unknown.
Natasha: Do we have an ally?
Nick: Ultron's got an enemy, that's not the same thing. Still, I'd pay folding money to know who it is.
Tony: *tries to take another sweet but Daikon wasn't letting him* I might need to visit Oslo, find our "unknown."
Daikon: Back off, Tony. *pushes him* Try that again, and I'll crush your skull.
Nat: Trust me. He will do what he'll promise.
Tony raised his hands in surrender as Daikon smiled victoriously.
Nat: Well, this is good times, boss, but I was kind of hoping when I saw you, you'd have more than that.
Nick: I do, I have you. Back in the day, I had eyes everywhere, ears everywhere else. Here we all are, back on earth, with nothing but our wit, and our will to save the world. So stand. Outwit the platinum bastard.
Natasha: Steve doesn't like that kind of talk.
Steve: You know what, Romanoff?
Nat gives him a mischievous grin as Daikon chuckles.
Nick: So what does he want?
Steve: To become better. Better than us. He keeps building bodies.
Tony: Person bodies. The human form is inefficient, biologically speaking, we're outmoded. But he keeps coming back to it.
