Inside her cell, Natasha hears Banner's voice.

Bruce: Natasha! Natasha!

Natasha: Bruce?

He walks over to her cell.

Bruce: You alright?

Natasha: Yeah.

Bruce: The team's in the city, it's about to light up.

Natasha: I don't suppose you found a key lying around somewhere?

Bruce: Yeah, I did.

He holds up an alien rifle and blasts the cell door open.

Natasha: So, what's our play?

Bruce: I'm here to get you to safety.

Natasha: Job's not finished.

Bruce: We could help with the evacuation, but I can't be in a fight near civilians. And you've done plenty. Our fight is over.

Natasha: So, we just disappear?

FRIDAY: Your man's in the church, boss. I think he's waiting for you.

Stark flies into the church.

Ultron: Come to confess your sins?

Tony: I don't know, how much time you got?

Ultron: More than you.

Tony: Uhhh. Have you been juicing? A little Vibranium cocktail? You're looking, I don't wanna say, puffy...

Ultron: You're stalling to protect the people.

Tony: Well, that is the mission. Did you forget?

Ultron: I've moved beyond your mission. I'm free.

The Vibranium core he's placed beneath the floor erupts.

Ultron: What, you think you're the only one stalling?

FRIDAY: There's the rest of the Vibranium. Function: still unclear.

Ultron: This is how you end, Tony. This is peace in my time.

Ultron's army of robots start attacking the city as everyone is evacuating.

Steve: Go!

Wanda: Get off the bridge! Run!

Y/N opens a portal for the civilians. Vision then finds Ultron.

Vision: Ultron.

Ultron: My Vision. They really did take everything from me.

Vision: You set the terms, you can change them.

Ultron: Alright.

They fight, Vision begins working to shut Ultron out of the internet.

Tony: FRIDAY! The Vision?

FRIDAY: Boss, it's working. He's burning Ultron out of the net, he won't escape through there.

Ultron: You shut me out! You think I care? You take away my world, I take away yours.

He activates the Vibranium core, and the earth around Sokovia starts to crack.

Tony: FRIDAY?

FRIDAY: Sokovia's going for a ride.

Ultron: Do you see? The beauty of it, the inevitability. You rise, only to fall. You, Avengers, you are my meteor, my swift and terrible sword and the earth will crack with the weight of your failure. Purge me from your computers, turn my own flesh against me. It means nothing. When the dust settles, the only thing living in this world will be metal.
