The Abridged Script
This script was also published on Cracked.com, so if you want, you can read it there.
FADE IN:
INT. MIDDLE-CLASS HOUSE, OHIO - 1995
RACHEL WEISZ and DAVID HARBOUR are normal American parents with two normal American kids: VIOLET MCGRAW who will become FLORENCE PUGH, and EVER ANDERSON who will clearly become MILLA JOVOVICH SCARLETT JOHANSSON. They all laugh and get along and appreciate Nature and science and so obviously are DEEP COVER RUSSIAN AGENTS.
EVER ANDERSON
Plus you can tell I grow up to be Scarlett since I've already started changing my hair colour every ten minutes.
DAVID HARBOUR
(arrives)
Hey everyone. Our cover's blown so we gotta drop everything and run for our lives right after I finish this beer.
(burps)
They pile into the family van and drive to a HANGAR but POLICE and SHIELD show up!
RACHEL WEISZ
Quick kids, into the plane! Ever, remember your training! Violet, remember your uselessness and why are you on this mission anyway?
DAVID HARBOUR
Go on ahead, I'll hold them off! Don't try to talk me out of it, this is the only time I kick serious ass in the whole goddamn movie!
DAVID heroically GUNS DOWN INNOCENT SHIELD AGENTS while hanging off the WING, and RACHEL takes a bullet--but EVER successfully LIFTS OFF at the last moment! They fly to CUBA where DAVID hands over CLASSIFIED INFO, brushes off INJURED RACHEL, and gives EVER and VIOLET to RAY WINSTONE'S TRAUMA FACTORY FOR TRAFFICKED YOUNGSTERS.
DAVID HARBOUR
Y'know while I'm at it, let me also hand over my Father of the Year mug. Doesn't feel right somehow.
INT. WASHROOM - 21 YEARS LATER
SCARLETT JOHANSSON uses her PHONE to watch WILLIAM HURT conducting a RAID.
WILLIAM HURT
Listen up people! This movie is set between Civil War and Infinity War, but we want ALL the press to call this an "origin story" and talk like the whole thing happens in the 90s, got that?! Now bring me Scarlett, we have junkets to do!!
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
(calls William)
Sorry, I've suckered you into one of those Silence-of-the-Lambs door fakeouts and I'm in some faraway country that we'd normally pretend was somewhere else but this time it isn't.
WILLIAM HURT
But we put a tracker in your belt! How could-
SUBORDINATE
(arriving)
I'm sorry sir, but Scarlett used her elite superhuman spy skills to... TAKE OFF HER BELT AND LEAVE IT SOMEWHERE holy shit no wonder she's a SHIELD legend. Where the hell did we get the idea we could outsmart her.
(punches self)
EXT. MOROCCO
Meanwhile in Morocco, GREAT-VALUE BLACK WIDOWS FLORENCE PUGH and NANNA BLONDELL are on a mission to get MICHELLE LEE, but are spotted! After a spirited chase FLORENCE defeats MICHELLE with the DROP-YOUR-KNIFE-TO-THE-OTHER-HAND-MOVE that's like EVERYONE'S FAVOURITE KNIFE MOVE NOW, but then--
MICHELLE LEE
(shoots CGI red shit into Florence's face)
Sparkle bomb!
FLORENCE PUGH
(shakes head)
Wha... oh my god I was under mind control but now I'm not! Shit, what was in that Swedish punch anyway?
MICHELLE LEE
(reveals caseful of vials)
The red gas in these vials nullifies mind control, and also looks enough like Pym Particles to fool people dissecting advance clips. You can use them to free the other Widows!
FLORENCE PUGH
Like Nanna who's going to be here any second? I could zap her and we could team up against the baddies?
MICHELLE LEE
Yes exactly. So you should run and not do that.
(dies)
FLORENCE PUGH
I will, after I rip the tracker out of my leg! Which since I was under total mind control could have just been on my belt. Did they switch my tracker and Scarlett's?
(runs off)
NANNA BLONDELL
(radioing)
Attention HQ! Florence is compromised, permission to unlock Mephisto protocol!
(listens)
Well Twitter seems pretty convinced that... okay, how about Kang protocol?
(listens)
...Doctor Doom?
(listens)
Fine, Taskmaster will have to do I guess.
EXT. NORWAY
SCARLETT drives to her new hideaway in the NORWEGIAN COUNTRYSIDE where O-T FAGBENLE is waiting.
O-T FAGBENLE
Just think, Scarlett. This could be your home, right here. The Avengers aren't a place... they're a people.
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
What are you talking about-
O-T FAGBENLE
And here's a box of mail from your old safe house in Budapest. Just some envelopes and a mysterious black case that goes CLINKETY CLACK whenever I move it, like there's vials or something inside. I'm sure it's not important.
And so, SCARLETT settles into her quiet adventure of surviving alone off the land. But this ain't the MINARI CINEMATIC UNIVERSE so while driving to town, TASKMASTER BUSTS IN TO KICK ASS AND CHEW BUBBLEGUM AND I CAN'T GET BUBBLEGUM THROUGH THIS METAL FACE MASK SO FUCK YOU
TASKMASTER
I HAVE COME FOR YOUR TINY GLASS VIALS
(explodes Scarlett's car)
NOTHING SHALL STAND BETWEEN ME AND THOSE FRAGILE, EASILY SHATTERED VIALS
(fires rockets everywhere)
Luckily even though the cybernetic TASKMASTER has been programmed to UTTERLY PWN ANYONE WHO GETS IN THEIR WAY the program stops juuuust short of MURDER, so SCARLETT is able to grab the VIALS and ESCAPE!
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
Holy shit, the vials are attached to a picture of young Florence with Milla Jovovich's kid! Why would Milla be involved in... oh right, that's young me. Hmmmm.
INT. OLD APARTMENT BUILDING - BUDAPEST
SCARLETT arrives in BUDAPEST with the VIALS and her BRIGHT FLAMING VERY DISTINCTIVE EASILY SPOTTED RED HAIR, like, finally a situation where it would really make sense to dye and you choose NOT to? Anyhoo at her old safe house she finds--FLORENCE PUGH!
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
I got the vials you sent me, so I'm here to ask you about that.
(facekicks Florence)
FLORENCE PUGH
And clearly I wanted your help dealing with them so I'll be happy to tell you everything.
(throws Scarlett into furniture)
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
Clearly.
(slams Florence's head into wall)
FLORENCE PUGH
Wait, what's going on? Is this the thing where superheroes always have to fight in their first scene together?
(throws knives)
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
Yeah I guess.
(strangles)
FLORENCE PUGH
Fine, I declare that obligation fulfilled so we can get on with this. So as you may have surmised, the Red Room is still operational and creating Widows, and its evil mastermind, Ray Winstone, is still alive.
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
(gasps)
Ray... alive?!? But there was a huge explosion that I assumed he was in! Nobody in the MCU has ever come back from something like that!
Just then GENERIC-BRAND WIDOWS burst in, forcing SCARFLO to FLEE! They race across the ROOF chased by NANNA and eventually they all FALL SEVERAL STORIES, but NANNA hits the ground DIRECTLY while FLORENCE is flung through glass and SCARLETT hits three dozen metal beams on the way down, so only NANNA is badly injured.
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
(mildly bruised)
I thought my shtick was being the only Avenger WITHOUT superpowers?
(bounces axe blade off wrist)
Huh.
NANNA BLONDELL
(straining)
Argh... Ray... controlling me to... fatally shoot myself... even though Scarlett... is standing like right there and I have a clean shot...
(dead)
EXT. THE FAST AND FURIOUS STREETS OF BUDAPEST
SCARFLO steal a CAR and are chased by TASKMASTER IN A TANK aka TANKMASTER!
TASKMASTER
I would have attacked right away with the Widows but I really didn't want to leave this thing double-parked.
FLORENCE PUGH
We need a plan! Scarlett, drive really fast while I make sarcastic quips and generally make fun of how lame you are in your own movie. That should do it!
The plan appears to be working, but TANKMASTER uses an EXPLOSIVE ARROW to EXPLODE SCARFLO'S CAR and make it BOUNCE OFF FIVE OTHER CARS, carom off a GIANT PINBALL BUMPER, skid down a SIX FLAGS WATER SLIDE, bounce off a SHOP AWNING, and finally crash DOWN A FLIGHT OF SUBWAY STAIRS where it finally spins to a stop UPSIDE-DOWN.
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
(hair mussed)
Um, good thing we wore our seat belts! Ha ha ha, we should be dead.
TASKMASTER
Wow, I got you guys with a HAWKEYE skill, that's gotta sting.
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
C'mon Florence, I know a secret hiding spot, this small ceiling compartment where Renner and I once camped out non-stop for three days! Just, ah, avoid that one corner.
TASKMASTER
Ew.
(leaves)
INT. GAS STATION OFF THE HIGHWAY - LATER ON
SCARFLO stop for some extra SUPPLIES and BACKSTORY.
FLORENCE PUGH
I notice you didn't ask about Winstone's daughter, I assume you killed her?
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
Same explosion that I thought killed Ray. But I was looking right at her when it went boom so THIS time there's NOOOOO WAY she survived, certainly not without some kind of cybernetic enhancements and turning into an inhuman killing machine, but what are the odds of that happening AGAIN.
FLORENCE PUGH
How come you never looked for me? I guess you were too busy being an AVENGER and AVENGING stuff with the AVENGERS and hanging around AVENGERS headquarters.
STORE CLERK WHO COULD PROBABLY MAKE SOME SWEET COIN TURNING IN A WORLD-WIDE FUGITIVE FROM JUSTICE
(glued to soccer game)
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
Well, I assumed you'd probably just up and left the evil ruthless assassin program that I barely escaped, and were living a boring drab life with zero problems that my fame or skills or influence could do anything about.
FLORENCE PUGH
That figures. Well I don't hold a grudge so don't worry, I won't steal your whole movie or anything.
They go for FOOD and gaze wistfully at a HAPPY CAR MECHANIC and his HAPPY FAMILY being HAPPY together so they STEAL HIS CLIENT'S CAR, HA HA HAVE FUN SAVING YOUR JOB NOW YOU STUPID DUMB HAPPY MECHANIC
EXT. RANDOM FIELD
SCARFLO meet up with O-T who has acquired some new GEAR.
O-T FAGBENLE
I got you a helicopter, plus those new white outfits you asked for. There was also a bag full of prototype alternate costumes sent in by creeper fanboys that I killed with fire.
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
Good call, thanks. I know I asked for a jet, but turns out a helicopter is waaaay better suited for our needs in this case, so chalk up another win in O-T!
EXT. RUSSIAN PRISON - RUSSIA
SCARFLO acquire some baked goods and a vintage DAVID HARBOUR ACTION FIGURE, package and mail it to RUSSIAN PRISON, wait for however long it takes RUSSIAN MAIL to reach RUSSIAN PRISON, and then fly their junky-ass beat-up helicopter straight into RUSSIAN AIRSPACE to hover above the RUSSIAN PRISON.
DAVID HARBOUR
(in gen-pop)
Bwah ha, I spend all day breaking arms and boasting about shit! How has nobody killed me in my sleep yet?
DAVID gets his mail and finds an EARPIECE in his action figure!
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
(over radio)
We're here to bust you out. Please recognize who I am despite not hearing my voice in 21 years.
DAVID fights his way to the yard and FLORENCE sets off an AVALANCHE that buries the entire prison, killing everyone, but our heroes GET AWAY in the nick of time!
FLORENCE PUGH
Yay, what a fun action sequence! I'm sure all the guards were evil, especially that dog.
DAVID HARBOUR
Ah, my girls! It's so great to see you and your lack of uteruses again. WHAT? What did I say?
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
At least that wasn't as cringy as the Age of Ultron scene. But we don't care about you, just tell us where Ray Winstone is!
DAVID HARBOUR
I don't know. But I DO know where to find... RACHEL WEISZ DUN DUN DUN!
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
(spits out coffee)
Wait, Rachel's alive TOO?!? But she had a SHOULDER WOUND!!
(jaw drops)
(triple-take)
FLORENCE PUGH
How long did you say you've been in the MCU again?
INT. RACHEL WEISZ'S FARM BECAUSE WE'RE ABOUT HALFWAY THROUGH A MARVEL MOVIE, WHICH IS WHEN FARMS APPEAR
The gang are greeted by ROGUE UNDERGROUND PIG SCIENTIST RACHEL WEISZ and they head inside to drink and catch up.
RACHEL WEISZ
Yes, I've been here experimenting on pigs and developing our super evil mind control technology that fucks directly with the brain itself. I can demonstrate by ordering this pig not to breathe.
(nearly murders pig in horrifying fashion)
I'm one of the good guys.
DAVID HARBOUR
Look I can still squeeze into my old super-suit that Rachel has kept in a drawer for 20 years for some reason! Ah, good to have the family together.
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
I know those Vin Diesel memes have been super viral lately but please. That was just spycraft, we weren't family.
FLORENCE PUGH
Oh fuck you! A mirage of normality with fleeting happiness and long-lasting trauma, followed by decades of people barely communicating? Seems like real family to ME!
(storms off)
DAVID goes to console FLORENCE leaving SCARLETT and RACHEL alone.
RACHEL WEISZ
I'm sorry Scarlett. I did care about you, and I still treasure our time together.
(smiles)
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
I guess maybe... we really were family.
(smiles)
RACHEL WEISZ
I guess so.
(smiles)
Oh I alerted the bad guys and they'll be here to murder you soon.
(evil smile)
But I'm going to double-cross them and help you.
(warm smile)
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
Damn. Guess we barely have time for me to switch outfits, you put on my outfit, both get fully geared up, prep face masks, and devise a thorough plan, all without ever taking five seconds to step into the next room and warn Florence and David.
Eventually TASKMASTER and the MALT-O-MEAL WIDOWS arrive and CAPTURE our heroes with the help of RACHEL, APPARENTLY!
EXT. BIG FLYING SKY FORTRESS - THE RED ROOM!
Our heroes are flown to RAY'S FLYING CASTLE and unconscious DAVID and FLORENCE are taken inside.
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
Ah, so the reason nobody could find this crucial secret location is--that it's suspended high above the surface!
(frowns)
Is this gonna be our go-to move with every female-lead movie?
(knocked out)
RACHEL strides past the KNOCKOFF WIDOWS practicing their AMERICA'S NEXT TOP DANCE CREW ROUTINE and reports to RAY WINSTONE.
RAY WINSTONE
I know we need to do the goofy face-mask tech at some point so you might as well reveal yourself... SCARLETT!
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
(dramatically rips off mask)
(mask rips off two dozen earrings)
OW OW OW yes it's me, you fell right into our trap! Rachel's gonna hack your systems, Florence is gonna free the other Widows and David will, I dunno, fart the alphabet or something. Now I can murder you dead, um, right after you politely ask Taskmaster over there to leave without demolishing me, please and thanks? Ha ha ha.
RAY WINSTONE
Taskmaster? Oh you mean... MY DAUGHTER, OLGA KURYLENKO, DUN DUN DUNNNN!!
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
Well yeah, her name was in the opening credits and has been looming over this movie like an undropped shoe ever since, I didn't think she was gonna be Barista Girl #3.
RAY WINSTONE
I rebuilt her with cybernetics and now she has the fighting skills of all the Avengers, even Ant-Man who has normal human skill but you gotta have the whole collection right? Anyway I shall send her after the others now, begone!
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
Bad move Ray, now I can shoot you-
(freezes!)
Or maybe stab you-
(freezes!)
Dammit! Okay hang on, I could drop a heavy weight above you, telling myself I'm going to catch it, but then NOT catch it, and-
RAY WINSTONE
It's no use! All Widows have a pheromone lock that means if you can smell me, you're unable to harm me. And just to make extra sure I haven't showered in ten days. You are helpless!
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
Curse my clear nasal passageways! Wait, is this why I always feel compelled to buy every allergy medication I see?
RAY WINSTONE
Post-hypnotic suggestion for the win! It's all part of my ingenious insurance policy that's protected me for decades, the only possible failing of which would be a theoretical worldwide pandemic where the infected lose their sense of smell BUT WHAT ARE THE ODDS OF THAT HAPPENING AMIRITE MWAH HA HA HA
INT. MEANWHILE ELSEWHERE IN THE FLOATING FORTRESS
DAVID has been locked up with SCARLETT who is really RACHEL, and who opens their cell!
DAVID HARBOUR
Aw and I just did my big heartfelt speech to Scarlett! I really am just doomed to failure it seems.
(rips pants)
RACHEL WEISZ
It's okay. I secretly gave Florence an earpiece and concealed knife, so as long as Ray's guards have absolutely zero initiative...
(on radio)
Florence? Are you okay?
FLORENCE PUGH
(on radio)
Yeah fine, they're about to surgically remove my brain so they can see how the un-mind-control sparkles work. You'd think they'd start with an MRI or something, but I guess that's not evil enough?
RACHEL WEISZ
Well after you bust free, head down to the labs and find the vials. They'll be the only red substance in the entire huge giant lab. Meanwhile I'll find the Mandatory Third Act Exploding Collapsing Enemy Base button and push it.
DAVID HARBOUR
And what'll I do-
(clobbered by Olga)
OH OKAY I THINK I UNDERSTAND THIS ASSIGNMENT
(curbstomped all over the damn place)
INT. BACK IN RAY'S OFFICE
RAY continues to gloat to SCARLETT.
RAY WINSTONE
I have secret Widow agents around the world, all under my control. Here they are on my big evil red map! Look at all the stock disaster footage I can unlock with this control pad, right here, unlocked by this ring found on this finger!
(points)
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
Ha ha, now I can reveal that I knew about your pheromone trick all along!
RAY WINSTONE
Oh shit, so you wore special spy noseplugs?
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
Ah nope, didn't think of that. Oops. Instead, tell me a random fan theory about Loki.
RAY WINSTONE
Okay... some kid on TikTok thinks Owen Wilson is really a Thor variant because he had salad and Rene Russo told Thor to eat a salad.
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
That'll do it.
(headdesks TO THE EXTREME)
Dere, now I can'd smell ad all!
(beads up Ray)
ID IS DIME DO DEAL OUD ULDIMAD JUSDICE
(dakes aim)
But just then SCARLETT is attacked by the KIRKLAND SIGNATURE BRAND WIDOWS!!
RAY WINSTONE
Phew! Ahem, please murder her, my minions. But take your time, give a chance for a last-second rescue, you know the drill.
(leaves)
The WIDOWS begin mopping the floor with SCARLETT but luckily there is a LAST-SECOND RESCUE!
FLORENCE PUGH
It's me Scarlett, I strapped all the vials together with an explosive juuuuust powerful enough to destroy all but two of them!
(sparklebombs!)
WIDOWS
Ah that's better. So now I guess we all go clobber Ray and his handful of guards? I mean now we have a whole elite fighting force that's extra motivated to-
FLORENCE PUGH
No, I'll fight Ray alone.
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
And I'll grab the sleeper-agent data and fight Olga alone.
WIDOWS
(shrug)
(fuck off)
Meanwhile RACHEL pushes the BUTTON, and the ENTIRE BASE begins BLOWING UP! SCARLETT gets the DATA and then OUTRUNS A FIREBALL and LEAPS OUTSIDE and DODGES ANOTHER FIREBALL by LEAPING BACK INSIDE and then SHAKES IT ALL ABOUT and DOES THE HOKEY POKEY and then finds OLGA who has been locked up by DAVID HARBOUR HAHAHAHA AS IF OBVIOUSLY IT WAS ALSO RACHEL WEISZ DID THAT.
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
Dang, I can't de-brainwash Olga with her helmet on. Hm, should I offer to free her if she removes her helmet first?
(shakes head)
Way too easy. I'll let her out so she can whup my ass and then, um, improvise the rest. Okay, here we go!
CORRIDOR
THAT IS AN AWFUL PLAN SCARLETT
(rips itself in half to prevent fight)
Meanwhile RAY is about to escape on a PLANE!
FLORENCE PUGH
You're not getting away Ray! I'm gonna explode one of your engines!
RAY WINSTONE
Oh. I should probably get off then.
FLORENCE PUGH
Okay but what if... you didn't?
RAY WINSTONE
Well all right. I mean not like an explosion's gonna matter--
However the SFX TEAM makes it EXCEEDINGLY CLEAR that THIS particular explosion ABSOLUTELY ONE ZILLION PERCENT MATTERS as it CONSUMES RAY AND INCINERATES HIM UTTERLY!! Well, except for his GLASSES anyway.
RAY'S GLASSES
HA HA HA WE'LL MEET AGAIN, FLOREEENNNNCE
(fly off)
FLORENCE is flung OFF THE STATION and plummets downward! SCARLETT plummets after her with a PARACHUTE and catches her, but then sees OLGA is plummeting towards them both!
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
Hm, there's still a chance Florence doesn't have unbreakable bones, she should probably keep the chute.
(pushes her away)
SCARLETT and OLGA fight and fight and at the last second OLGA remembers she has a built-in chute and ACTIVATES it. They LAND!
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
I'm a bit surprised all of Ray's armoured guards on his floating base didn't have built-in chutes, honestly.
GUARDS
(falling to death)
AT LEAST WE HAVE GUNS TO TRY AND KILL PEOPLE IN OUR FINAL MOMENTS
(go splat)
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
Right. Now I just gotta defeat Olga, who has all my fight skill plus every Avenger's fight skill and who has totally crushed me every other time.
(brightens)
But I have the extra two vials! It really is helpful that they only shatter when their current owner really wants them to.
(sparklebombs Olga!)
OLGA KURYLENKO
I... am myself again. Yay! Now I can hate you for exploding me as a small child, of my own free will. Gimme a hug!
EXT. HEY IT'S ANOTHER RANDOM BIG FIELD, THIS TIME DISTINGUISHED BY ITS BEING COVERED IN BITS OF EXPLODED EVIL HQ
SCARLETT searches and finds FLORENCE, who is OKAY!
FLORENCE PUGH
Good work sis. Here, have my vest, thus completing the origin story of Scarlett's Infinity War Vest! I know everyone was itching to know the origin of that vest.
RACHEL WEISZ
And we're okay too! We got to a plane and crashed, but David cushioned our landing with his groin.
LOBLAWS PRESIDENT'S CHOICE WIDOWS
(landing)
Our plane still works! We're gonna go catch the "This Changes Everything" doc on Netflix, you can come along if you want.
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
(squints)
Oh hey here comes William Hurt to arrest me. His troops are moments away so we only have like ten minutes to say our goodbyes.
(hugs Florence)
Here, take the data disk and the last vial. And Olga, why not. You must carry on the mission to save the Widows!
FLORENCE PUGH
Shouldn't you escape with the rest of us? At the start of Infinity War you're still on the run, so that'd be a simple way to seamlessly transition to-
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
Nah it's OK, I'm gonna wait here and deal with that 56-car convoy by myself. I just have to
EXT. TWO WEEKS LATER
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
Well that was easy! And look, I have the Infinity War blonde hair now!
O-T FAGBENLE
Meanwhile I got you a Quinjet because like that's hard. So when you find Chris Evans, are you gonna tell him about the worldwide network of sleeper agents that could crash the world economy at a moment's notice? Maybe suggest you guys go help with that? Or mention the events of this movie in any way?
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
(points to hair)
This is all those assholes care about, why even bother.
CREDITS
EXT. EPILOGUE -- POST-ENDGAME
In a secluded cemetery, FLORENCE and her DOG visit SCARLETT'S GRAVE because apparently SOME PEOPLE CARED ENOUGH TO ACTUALLY DO A PROPER FAREWELL, SORRY SHE DIDN'T HAVE A BIG ROBOT HEART TO FLOAT DOWN A RIVER BUT I GUESS THAT'S WHY YOU'RE THE AVENGERS NOT THE MEMORIALIZERS.
JULIA LOUIS-DREYFUSS
Hey there! I have a new job for you, wackily!
(does Elaine dance)
FLORENCE PUGH
I work for you now? I guess that means my big huge global-Widow-rescue mission got wrapped up offscreen, whatever.
(shrugs)
So who's the target?
JULIA LOUIS-DREYFUSS
How'd you like to get the one responsible for Scarlett's death... namely, JEREMY RENNER DUN DUN DUNNN!!!
FLORENCE PUGH
(pause)
Okay I know we like to behave like everyone in the MCU has watched all the MCU movies, but come on, how the FUCK do we know that? Did Jeremy write a big tell-all book? Anyway I still blame Mecharen Gillan for not figuring out the love-sacrifice angle before the mission, and what's more-
JULIA LOUIS-DREYFUSS
Look we're committed to a Hawkeye show and it needs all the help it can get.
END
