[as Thor arrives on ground to join Steve, Natasha and Barton]

Thor: The powers surrounding the cube is impenetrable.

[Stark talks to them through his Iron Man suit]

Tony Stark: Thor is right, we gotta deal with these guys.
Natasha Romanoff: How do we do this?
Steve Rogers: As a team.
Thor: I have unfinished business with Loki.
Clint Barton: Yeah, get in line.
Steve Rogers: Save it. Loki's gonna keep this fight focused on us and that's what we need. Without him these things could run wild. We got Stark up top, he's gonna need us...

[just then Banner arrives on a motorbike]

Bruce Banner: So, this all seems horrible.
Natasha Romanoff: I've seen worse.
Bruce Banner: Sorry.
Natasha Romanoff: No, we could use a little worse.

Steve Rogers: Stark, we got him, Banner, just like you said.
Tony Stark: Tell him to suit up. I'm bringing the party to you.

[they watch as Stark draws the giant worm ship towards them]

Natasha Romanoff: I don't see how that's a party.

Steve Rogers: Dr. Banner, now might be a good time for you to get angry.
Bruce Banner: That's my secret, Captain. I'm always angry.

[he transforms into the Hulk and smashes the Leviathan to bits]

[they watch as hundreds more Leviathans comes through portal]

Natasha Romanoff: Guys.
Tony Stark: Call it, Captain.
Steve Rogers: Alright, listen up. Until we can close that portal up there, we're gonna use containment. Barton, I want you on that roof, eyes on everything. Call out patterns and strays. Stark, you got the perimeter. Anything gets more than three blocks out, you turn it back or your turn it to ash.

[to Stark]
Clint Barton: Wanna give me a lift?
Tony Stark: Right. Better clench up, Legolas.

[Stark lifts Barton up to the building]

Steve Rogers: Thor, you've gotta try and bottleneck that portal, slow them down. You've got the lightning, light the bastards up.

[to Natasha]
Steve Rogers: You and me, we stay here on the ground, keep the fighting here. And Hulk, smash!

[as they are all busy fighting off the Chitauri army]

Natasha Romanoff: Captain, none of this is gonna mean a damn thing if we don't close that portal.
Steve Rogers: Our biggest guns couldn't touch it.
Natasha Romanoff: Well, maybe it's not about guns.
Steve Rogers: You wanna get up there, you're gonna need a ride.
Natasha Romanoff: I got a ride. I could use a boost though.
Steve Rogers: Are you sure about this?
Natasha Romanoff: Yeah, it's gonna be fun.

[Steve gives her boost with his shield and Natasha jumps up and commandeers one of the hover boards to fly to the top of Stark Tower]

[whilst The Avengers are fighting with the Chitauri, Fury is having a conference with the world security council]

World Security Council #2: Director Fury, the council has made a decision.
Nick Fury: I recognize the council has made a decision, but given that it's a stupid ass decision, I've elected to ignore it.
World Security Council #1: Director, you're closer than any of our subs, you scramble that jet...
Nick Fury: That is the island of Manhattan, Councilman. Until I'm certain my team can't hold it, I will not order a nuclear strike against a civilian population.
World Security Council #1: If we don't hold them in the air, we lose everything.
Nick Fury: I'd send that bird out, we already have.

[after Hulk throws Loki through a window into the Stark Tower penthouse]

Loki: Enough! You are all of you beneath me! I am God, you dull creature, and I will not be bullied by...

[Hulk grabs Loki by the legs and smashes him against the floor repeatedly and finally throws him aside to the ground]

The Hulk: Puny God.

[as Hulk walks away Loki whimpers in pain]

[after Natasha lands on on the top of Stark Tower, Professor Selvig is hit in the head with a piece of shrapnel, ending Loki's mind control]

Natasha Romanoff: Doctor.
Selvig: Loki's scepter, the energy...the Tesseract can't fight. You can't protect against yourself.
Natasha Romanoff: It's not your fault. You didn't know what you were doing.
Selvig: Well, actually I think I did. I built in a safety to cut the power source.
Natasha Romanoff: Loki's scepter.
Selvig: It might be able to close the portal. And I'm looking right at it.

[after the world security council has decided to ignore Fury's advice and sent a nuclear missile towards Manhattan]

Nick Fury: Stark, you hearing me? We have a missile headed straight for the city.
Tony Stark: How long?
Nick Fury: Three minutes, max.

[as they are battling it out with the Chitauri, Steve is struck down and Thor helps him back to his feet]

Thor: You ready for another bout?
Steve Rogers: What, you gettin' sleepy?

[on Stark Tower, Natasha has Loki's scepter and is about to shut the portal when she calls to the others]

Natasha Romanoff: I can close it! Can anybody copy? I can shut the portal down!
Steve Rogers: Do it!
Tony Stark: No, wait!
Steve Rogers: Stark, these things are still coming!
Tony Stark: I got a nuke coming in, it's gonna blow in less than a minute.

[as he flies towards the missile]

Tony Stark: And I know just where to put it.
