[We cut to see Steve sitting outside the Avengers Compound, staring at the floor, deep in thought. He looks beat, the only possibility of victory now not an opportunity. He looks up as a deafening noise breaks the silence in the distance. As he looks, we see an Audi R8 speeding towards the entrance. The car pulls over to Cap, but goes a bit too far, then reverses to Cap. We see Tony Stark roll down the window and look at Cap.]
"What a surprising entry" Rhodey mutters
"5/10, better luck next time" Natasha teased Tony
TONY STARK: Why the long face? Let me guess: He turned into a baby.
STEVE ROGERS: Among other things, yeah. What are you doing here?
[He gets out of the car, and walks around to the back.]
TONY STARK: [Ignoring Steve's question] That's the EPR Paradox. Instead of pushing Lang through time, you might've wound up pushing time through Lang. It's tricky. Dangerous. Somebody should've cautioned you against it.
STEVE ROGERS: You did.
TONY STARK: Oh, did I? [acting like he did not; there's the Tony we know] Thank God I'm here. Regardless, I fixed it. [He holds up his right hand, with a device on it] A fully functioning Time-Space GPS. I just want peace. [Makes peace sign with his fingers] Turns out, resentment is corrosive, and I hate it.
STEVE ROGERS: Me too.
TONY STARK: We got a shot at getting these stones, but I gotta tell you my priorities: Bring back what we lost? I hope, yes. Keep what I got? I have to, at all costs. And... maybe not die trying will be nice.
"Sounds reasonable" Loki says
STEVE ROGERS: Sounds like a deal. [Steve reaches out his hand to shake in the deal, in which Tony replies in the same way.]
[Tony reaches back into his trunk to pull something else out, Captain America's Shield. He makes to give it to Steve, who hesitates.]
STEVE ROGERS: Tony...
TONY STARK: Why? He made it for you. [referring to Howard Stark] Plus, honestly I have to get it out of the garage before Morgan takes it sledding.
[Steve fits his arm into the shield.]
"That looks right"
"I probably shouldn't have asked you tog I've it up in the first place" Tony says to Steve
"I'm glad you did, taught me a lot of lessons, so thank you" Steve says, Tony smiles but still feels a bit guilty
STEVE ROGERS: Thank you, Tony.
TONY STARK: Will you keep that a little quiet? Didn't bring one for the whole team. [Hesitates] ...We are getting the whole team, yeah?
STEVE ROGERS: We're working on that right now.
[Cut to the Benatar landing in the yard of the Avenger's Compound. Scott is sitting having a Taco and some Nachos at a bench, and everything falls out of the taco as the Benatar lands. Nebula and Rocket walk out of the ship, and past Scott.]
Everyone laughs at his face
ROCKET: Hey, humie! Where's Big Green?
SCOTT LANG: Uh, Kitchen, I think. [To himself as he sees Nebula] That's awesome.
NEBULA: [into an earpiece] Rhodey, careful on re-entry. There's an idiot on the landing zone.
"Look at you making friends Nebula" Gamora teases, Nebula shoots her a glare but deep down is happy to not be alone in a world without her sister
