[The Avengers are gathered in the lab]

BRUCE
All our work is gone. Ultron cleared out, used the internet as an escape hatch.

STEVE
Ultron.

NATASHA
He's been in everything. Files, surveillance. Probably knows more about us than we know about each other.

RHODES
He's in your files, he's in the internet. What if he decides to access something a little more exciting?

MARIA
Nuclear codes.

RHODES
Nuclear codes. Look, we need to make some calls, assuming we still can.

NATASHA
Nukes? He said he wanted us dead.

PHOENIX
He didn't say dead. He said extinct.

CLINT
He also said he killed somebody.

MARIA
But there wasn't anyone else in the building.

TONY
Yes, there was.

[Stark bring up the now-destroyed 3D image of JARVIS' consciousness]

BRUCE
This is insane.

STEVE
JARVIS was the first line of defense. He would've shut Ultron down, it makes sense.

BRUCE
No, Ultron could've assimilated Jarvis. This isn't strategy, this is...rage.

[Thor barges in and grabs hold of Stark by his throat, holding him up]

CLINT
Woah, woah, woah! It's going around.

TONY
[to Thor] Come on. Use your words, buddy.

THOR
I have more than enough words to describe you, Stark.

PHOENIX
Thor! The Legionnaire.

[Thor lets go of Stark and walks over to Phoenix and stands behind her]

THOR
Trail went cold about a hundred miles out but it's headed north, and it has the scepter. Now we have to retrieve it, again.

NATASHA
The genie's out of that bottle. Clear and present is Ultron.

DR. CHO
I don't understand. You built this program. Why is it trying to kill us?

[Stark starts laughing, Banner subtly shakes his head at him to get him to stop]

THOR
You think this is funny?

TONY
No. It's probably not, right? Is this very terrible? Is it so... is it so... it is. It's so terrible.

THOR
This could've been avoided if you hadn't played with something you don't understand.

TONY
No, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. It is funny. It's a hoot that you don't get why we need this.
