The next day, the group began to work on the Quantum Tunnel inside of Luis's van while Parker and T'Challa arrived at the Avengers Compound.

Peter: (Walks inside with T'Challa, seeing the others) Hey guys! What's up?

Sam: (Turns to Peter) Hey kid. (High fives Peter) Nice suit!

Peter: Thanks, made it myself thanks to T'Challa!

Natasha: (Turns to T'Challa) You helped make him a new suit?

T'Challa: I merely supplied the resources. (Folded his arms) Now there's something we need to talk about.

Hulk: (Walks into the room with Hope wearing her father's Quantum suit) Most indefinitely! (Turns to see Parker and T'Challa) Parker! Your Highness! It's so good to see you two!

Peter: (Widened his eyes when he saw the Hulk talking like Banner) Heeey, Bruce! You're looking... Green.

Hulk: I know! And I'm not angry anymore! It's amazing!

Peter: Yeah... (Turns to Nat) Is this why you-?

Natasha: It's not important, it's fine.

Sam: Nothin' to worry about.

T'Challa: Then why bring us here?

Hope: Because of this. (Opens the back of the van, revealing the Quantum Tunnel)

T'Challa: (Sees the Quantum Tunnel) What's that?

Hulk: It's a Quantum Tunnel! It's basically an interdimensional portal that teleports us into the Quantum Realm.

Peter: Okay, so this is another form of Quantum Tunneling? We're basically talking about passing through a potential barrier through subatomic particles!

Hope: (Points at Peter) Except we're not talking about it, we already made that happen!

Peter: Okay, cool! So-! (Widened his eyes) Wait, did you guys say something about a Quantum Realm?

T'Challa: Why are we going to the Quantum Realm?

Sam: We're not, she is! Long story short, we found a way how to travel through time.

Peter: Time Travel? What, like Back to the Future?

Sam: Exactly like Back to the Future! Only what Hope needs to do is not bet on sporting events, no talking to her past self-!

Hope: Okay, not exactly like Back to the Future!

Peter: Yeah, the movie's cool, but it's a bunch of bullshit.

Sam: Seriously? Come on, tell me it's not bullshit!

T'Challa: Can you actually do this?

Natasha: That's what we're trying to find out.

Hulk: Alright, here we go! Time Travel test number 1! Hope, fire up the van thing.

Hope: (Turns on the van) Done.

Sam: Okay, the breakers are all set while emergency generators are on standby!

Hulk: Good! Because if we blow up the grid, I don't wanna... (Points at Hope) Lose little fairy over here in the 1950s.

Hope: (Raises a brow) Excuse me?

Natasha: (Smiles) He's kidding! (Turns to Hulk) You can't say things like that.

Hulk: It was just a... Bad joke.

Hope: (Nodded uncertainly) Okay... (Turns around)

Natasha: (Turns to Hulk) You were kidding, right?
