[at his home, Pierce goes to his kitchen to get a drink when he sees the Winter Soldier and the Winter Witch sitting behind him with their guns on the table when his housekeeper calls out]
"Merlin! They scared me!" A sixth year says, and many people nod.
Renata: I'm going to go, Mr. Pierce. You need anything before I leave? [the Winter Soldier and Winter Witch glance at each other upon hearing the housekeeper's voice]
Alexander Pierce: No. Uh... it's fine, Renata, you can go home.
Renata: Okay, night-night.
Alexander Pierce: Good night. [Renata leaves] Want some milk? [neither of them reply] The timetable has moved. Our window is limited. Two targets, Level Six. [he pours himself a glass of milk and goes over to join the Winter Soldier and the Winter Witch at the table] They already cost me Zola. I want confirmed death in ten hours. [just then Renata interrupts them as she enters the kitchen]
Renata: Sorry, Mr. Pierce, I... I forgot my phone. [she notices the Winter Soldier and the Winter Witch]
Alexander Pierce: Oh, Renata. I wish you would have knocked. [Pierce picks up a gun from the table and shoots and kills her]
"What did she do to deserve that?"
[returning home from his morning run Sam hears a knock at his door, he opens the door to see Steve and Natasha]
Sam Wilson: Hey, man.
Steve Rogers: I'm sorry about this. We need a place to lay low.
Natasha Romanoff: Everyone we know is trying to kill us. [Sam pauses a moment before replying]
Sam Wilson: Not everyone. [Sam lets them enter, later as Steve and Natasha are cleaning up, Steve notices Natasha looking sad and thoughtful]
Steve Rogers: You okay?
Natasha Romanoff: Yeah.
Steve Rogers: What's going on?
Natasha Romanoff: When I first joined SHIELD, I thought I was going straight. But I guess I just traded in the KGB for HYDRA. I thought I knew whose lies I was telling, but... I guess I can't tell the difference anymore.
Steve Rogers: There's a chance you might be in the wrong business. [Natasha smiles faintly]
Natasha Romanoff: I owe you.
Steve Rogers: It's okay.
Natasha Romanoff: If it was the other way around, and it was down to me to save your life, and you be honest with me, would you trust me to do it?
"Yes," all the Avengers and Co. say at the same time.
Clint hugs his best friend. "I would have said yes even if you hadn't saved my life already," he smiles. Nat didn't say anything, she just leans into the hug.
Steve Rogers: I would now. And I'm always honest.
Natasha Romanoff: Well, you seem pretty chipper for someone who just found out they died for nothing.
Steve Rogers: Well, I guess I just like to know who I'm fighting.
Sam Wilson: [to Steve and Natasha] I made breakfast. If you guys... eat that sort of thing. [later as they are sitting in Sam's kitchen]
Natasha Romanoff: So, the question is: who in SHIELD could launch a domestic missile strike?
Steve Rogers: Pierce.
