Loki:
Please tell me you're going to appeal to my humanity.
Tony Stark:
Actually, I'm planning to threaten you.
Loki:
You should have left your armor on for that.
Tony Stark:
Yeah, it's seen a bit of mileage and you got the glow-stick of destiny. Would you like a drink?
Loki:
Stalling me won't change anything.
Tony Stark:
No, no, no; not stalling, threatening. No drink? You sure? I'm having one. [starts drinking a glass of whisky]
Loki:
What have I to fear?
Tony Stark:
The Avengers. It's what we call ourselves, sorta like a team. "Earth's Mightiest Heroes" type thing.
Loki:
Yes, I've met them.
Tony Stark:
Yeah. Takes us a while to get any traction, I'll give you that one. But let's do a head count here: your brother, the demigod; a super soldier, a living legend who kind of lives up to the legend; a man with breathtaking anger management issues; a couple of master assassins…and you, big fella, you've managed to piss off every single one of them.
Loki:
That was the plan.
Tony Stark:
Not a great plan. When they come…and they will…they'll come for you.
Loki:
I have an army.
Tony Stark:
We have a Hulk.
Loki:
I thought the beast had wandered off.
Tony Stark:
You're missing the point. There's no throne. There is no version of this where you come out on top. Maybe your army comes, and maybe it's too much for us, but it's all on you. Because if we can't protect the Earth, you can be damn well sure we'll avenge it.
Loki:
How will your friends have time for me…when they are so busy fighting you? [raises his staff to touch Tony's chest and control his mind; however, the arc reactor blocks it. Confused, he tries again, to no avail] This usually works.
Tony Stark:
Performance issues. It's not uncommon, one out of five…
[Loki grabs Tony by the neck and throws him aside]
Tony Starl:
[Under his breath] JARVIS, any time now.
Loki:
You will kneel before me! [Blasts Tony out the window of his penthouse; as he falls, he triggers the Mark-7 suit controls on his bracelets, causing it to plow through Loki and form around him before he hits the ground, allowing him to fly back up]
Tony Stark:
And there's one other person you pissed off. His name was Phil. [Blasts Loki]
