During the day at the New York Sanctum, Y/N proceeds down the main steps of the Sanctum with his girlfriend, Wanda and his best friend, Wong.

Y/N: Seriously? You don't have any money?

Wong: Attachment to the material is detachment from the spiritual.

Y/N: I'll tell the guys at the deli. Maybe they'll make you a metaphysical ham on rye.

Wong: Oh, wait, wait, wait, I think I have 200.

Wanda: Dollars?

Wong: Rupees.

Wanda: Which is?

Y/N: Uh, buck and a half. What do you two want?

Wong: I wouldn't say no to a tuna melt.

Bruce crash-lands through the Sanctum stairs. The Cloak of Levitation swirls around Y/N's shoulders immediately as the three got ready to fight only to see Bruce.

Bruce: Thanos is coming. He's coming...

Y/N shares a look with Wong and Wanda, and now fully in his mage attire.

Y/N: Who?

Bruce then told them what happened and Y/N turned to Wanda.

Y/N: Find Steve. If this Thanos is after the Infinity Stones, we to get to Vision.

Wanda nods and the two share a kiss and Y/N opens a portal to Scotland and Wanda enters through it. Tony Stark and Pepper Potts walk on having a conversation.

Tony: Slow down, slow down. I'm totally not kidding.

Pepper laughs slightly and talks over him.

Pepper: You're totally rambling.

Tony: No, I'm not.

Pepper: Lost me.

Tony: Look, you know how you're having a dream, and in the dream you gotta pee?

Pepper: Yeah.

Tony: Okay, and then you're like, "Oh my god, there's no bathroom, what am I gonna do? Oh! Someone's watching. I'm gonna go in my pants."

Pepper: Right. And then you wake up, and in real life you actually have to pee.

Tony: Yes.

Pepper: Yeah. Everybody has that.

Tony: Right! That's the point I'm trying to make. Apropos of that, last night, I dreamt, we had a kid. So real. We named him after your eccentric uncle. Uh, what was his name?

Pepper nods understanding.

Pepper: Right.

Tony: Morgan! Morgan.

Pepper: So, you woke up, and thought that we were...

Tony: Expecting.

Pepper: Yeah.

Tony: Yes?

Pepper: No.

Tony: I had a dream about it. It was so real.

Pepper: If you wanted to have a kid, you wouldn't have done that.

Pepper unties his jacket sleeves and taps Tony's chest attachment.

Tony: I'm glad you brought this up, 'cause it's nothing. It's just a housing unit for nano particles.

Pepper: It's not helping your case, okay?

Tony: No, no, it's an attachment, it's not a-

Pepper: You don't need that.

Tony: I know. I had the surgery. I'm just trying to protect us. The future uses, and that's it. Just in case there's a monster in the closet, instead of, you know...
