"Alright, let's leave the aircraft carrier issue aside."

Realizing that Roger responded better to gentler tactics, Nick Fury shifted the topic, bypassing the aircraft carrier discussion. "Let's talk about parallel worlds."

"Mm? And what do you want to talk about?" Roger asked.

"You claim to be from a parallel universe, but honestly, we're skeptical."

"Aliens already exist, so what's so strange about parallel universes? Besides, even if you don't believe it, what difference does it make?"

Roger leaned back on the couch, resting his arms on the top and placing his feet casually on the coffee table.

"I have no interest in your world. Coming to Earth was just because I'm originally from a parallel Earth. If not for trying to find Thor to leave Earth, I wouldn't even have bothered looking for you."

Roger spoke frankly.

Nick Fury frowned, remembering that Roger's whole reason for contacting them was to find Thor to leave Earth. This piqued Fury's curiosity. "Why are you so eager to leave Earth?"

"Do you think I'm here for fun on your version of Earth?" Roger rolled his eyes at Nick, then said, "I wouldn't be here if not for an unexpected incident, and now... I need to fix the mess it's caused. The solution isn't on Earth, it's out there on another planet... Hold on."

At that moment, Roger realized he'd overlooked an alternative.

If his goal was to leave Earth, Thor wasn't the only option. Nick Fury had connections with extraterrestrial allies, and his friend, Captain Marvel, could also take him off-planet.

Thinking aloud, Roger muttered, "Carol Danvers... How did I forget about her?"

"...?" Fury was startled; he hadn't expected Roger to know about Carol.

Before Fury could respond, Roger continued, "You should still have that pager Carol gave you, right? Contact her and have her take me off Earth. That way, I won't have to keep waiting here, and you all can stop keeping an eye on me."

"How do you know about her...?" Fury looked at Roger with growing suspicion.

In theory, nobody on Earth should know about his connection with Captain Marvel, especially since he'd kept it deeply hidden, not even calling her when the Chitauri invaded.

Yet here was this unknown outsider, who somehow knew about Captain Marvel and her relationship with Fury. Could Roger really be from a parallel world?

Roger's unexpected mention of Carol and his knowledge of their connection made Fury start to believe his story.

Roger, sensing this, leaned into the parallel world explanation.

"Like I said, I'm from a parallel universe. In that world, I know quite a few Avengers, Carol, the Guardians of the Galaxy, Xandar... Everything you know and don't know, I know it all. If that doesn't convince you, well... there's not much else I can say."

Roger understood that someone like Fury, with his background in espionage, would naturally be suspicious.

However, Roger didn't feel inclined to keep explaining himself. Repeating the same reasoning multiple times wouldn't stop Fury from being skeptical, so he decided it was easier to say nothing and let Fury make up his mind.
