Avengers Assemble. Sorry to step on your toes, Cap but I've always wanted to say that.

Get your free ham here!

[Natasha tries to reach Millie first, but her speed's no match for Tony's suit. At least they were both going to bring her to the tower anyway. All of the Avengers convene there to discuss this issue. When Cap arrives, he's walking in on a debate already in progress.]
I get it. I was watching the case the whole time and if that was my kid out there, I can't say I wouldn't have done the same thing. I'm not famously unemotional myself. She's a parent and the action she took is totally understandable, but actions have consequences. If she's upfront and turns herself in I think she has a case for temporary insanity. Worst case scenario, she ends up in Steve's rehabilitation program.

[Sam's not convinced.]
How can you expect us to put our trust in the system after what we saw today? We can't put our faith in a corrupt system and expect them to do the right thing. This needs to be settled in house with us. With Steve.

That's not how this works. [Tony fires back.] If we act like we're above the law, we have no right intervening in it.

Who made it over?

Let's go on a date! These partners will be paired together and encouraged to live in the same house. If the couple can commit to staying together, they will be rewarded

[His nose isn't broken, but it's swollen.]

Bucky -- one of them, anyway -- told me about you. Said we're all good friends where you're from.

[Thor]

Hi.

[Tony Stark(s) + Pepper Potts(s)]

Hi.

[Bruce Banner]

Hi.

Oh boy...You've really done it now...

So that guy I was dating to get over Steve left a party I took him to with another woman.


Steve
Hey, thanks again for hanging out last night. You're a good friend.

[This video with this music!



[Mouse is 13 sitting across a desk from Seth. Seth nods his head slowly.]
To be clear, I asked you to do me a favor and you're saying no, thank you.
[Mouse squirms a little in his seat, anxious of what's to come. He tries to explain.]
I can't.

You can't what?

I can't -- I can't cut someone's eyes.

You physically cannot?

Yes. No, I mean I just can't. Please. No, thank you.

[Seth lunges across the table a split second later, grabbing Mouse by his collar and dragging him across the desk to face him.]
No, thank you. [Seth hisses through his teeth and drags the boy down the hall. He opens a chest and throws Mouse in. He locks it. Mouse screams and begs to be set free.]

I'll be back in a few days. You think about what you've done, Mr. Cratchit.]

[Mouse is sixteen. He and Cole are wrapping a crying man in chains. Dorian takes a last drag from his cigarette before flicking it away. He kneels down next to the man.]

Please. Please don't do this. I'll never touch her again, I swear. Never. Tell Seth I learned my lesson. I'll never do it again!

I know. [Dorian pats the man's cheek and rises up again. Brick hitches the chain to the back of a truck. Mouse pours gasoline over the man's body and climbs into the driver's seat. Dorian, Brick, Oatie and Cole climb into the back of the pickup.]

Gun it. [Dorian orders. Mouse starts speeding, the man screams behind them. Oatie aims his lit cigarette at the body and flicks. The man ignites into flames.]


[Mouse is doing his homework and gets a text from Seth to meet him at his house. The boy goes immediately. Seth has a report card in front of him.]
What do we say to D marks, Mouse?

[Mouse doesn't answer right away.]
I'm doing extra credit.

Don't make me ask again.

[Mouse blinks slowly and swallows hard.]
No, thank you.

[Seth smiles. He gets up and walks out of the room. Mouse follows. They enter a room and then Mouse panicks. He tries to run. Seth grabs him and shoves him in the chest.]
No, thank you.

[Mouse is 18. He's standing in front of a family of four who kneel before him, Dorian, Oatie, Pat, Cole, Agnes, and Camellia. Brick is beating a man to death in front of them. Once he's dead, Dorian asks for the next volunteer. The woman sobs uncontrollably. Agnes slits her throat. Dorian picks another at random and smashes in their head with a bat. Cole shoots one in the knee. Mouse gets a text from Seth. They all stop.]
He says leave one. [Cole shrugs and shoots the one untouched in the head. Pat complains loudly that blood splashed on his banana. He groans as he tries to eat around it and decides he can't.]

What did they even do? [Cam asks as she kicks the injured one left in his wound.]

I don't ask questions. [Mouse replies. They ride away.]

[Montage of the Hooligans beating people, some to death. They mutilate others. There are several shots of Mouse being thrown into a chest only to be released days later covered in his own waste and vomit.

Final scene: Mouse is 19. Seth calls them all into a dinner meeting. When the meal finishes, Seth stabs Oatie in the back of the head with a knife and has them dispose of the body. All of the Hooligans are visibly shaken, save for Pat.

Fade to black.]

I need your help. I'm such an idiot.

[Open practice for Junior Avengers and Hooligans]

Dorian's been kicked off the initiative. He's been bullying Evan right under my nose for all these weeks.

Assemble. Who's here, hands up.

Oh man, I just drank myself into another dimension. [He's giddy laughing]

Steve said you're here too.

Do we have a problem? Evan tells me you want a truce, I wasn't aware we were at war.
