[...] S.H.I.E.L.D. is a counterterrorism and intelligence agency. I don't [...] know if such things can be good or bad, in the way that people can be. They're about protecting the world and saving people, yes, but [...] I will admit [...] there are times when we see the paths to doing those things very differently. In another universe even I was given a sidekick to do whatever "dirty work" I wasn't supposed to get into, or would have refused to do. Was it integral to safety? Perhaps. But I can't condone it.
