Tony: All right, yay! Hurray. Good job, guys. Let's just not come in tomorrow. Let's just take a day. Have you ever tried shawarma? There's a shawarma joint about two blocks from here.I don't know what it is, but I want to try it.
Thor: We're not finished yet.

News: Despite the devastation of what has been confirmed as an extraterrestrial attack, the extraordinary heroics of the group known as the Avengers has been to many a cause not only for comfort, but for celebration.

Citizen: I love you, Thor!
Citizen: And then these guys were like... And then the air goes... And this green guy walks up and he goes...
Citizen: I don't know.

Citizen: Superheroes in New York? Give me a break.
Citizen: These so- called "heroes" have to be held responsible for the destruction done to this city. This was their fight. Where are they now?
News: Tough questions are being asked about the Avengers themselves. Their sudden appearance and equally sudden disappearance...
Citizen: What, this is all somehow their fault? Captain America saved my life. Wherever he is, and wherever any of them are, I would just. .. I would want to say thank you.
SHIELD: Where are the Avengers?
Nick: I'm not currently tracking their whereabouts. I'd say they've earned a leave of absence.
SHIELD: And the Tesseract?
Nick: The Tesseract is where it belongs. Out of our reach.
SHIELD: That's not your call.
Nick: I didn't make it. I just didn't argue with the god that did.
SHIELD: So, you let him take it and the war criminal, Loki, who should be answering for his crime.
Nick: I think he will be.
SHIELD: I don't think you understand what you've started, letting the Avengers loose on this world. They're dangerous.
Nick: They surely are, and the whole world knows it. Every world knows it. Was that the point of all this? A statement? A promise.
Maria: Sir, how does it work now? They've gone their separate ways. Some, pretty extremely far. If we get into a situation like this again, what happens then?

Maria: Are you really sure about that?
Nick: I am.
Maria: Why?
Nick: Because we'll need them to.
