Age of Ultron: Attack on the HYDRA Base
HYDRA Announcer: [first lines; announcement over speaker] Report to your stations immediately. This is not a drill. We are under attack. We are under attack. [the Avengers are in the process of infiltrating a HYDRA base in Sovokia. Ironman bumps into a force field.]
Tony Stark: Shit!
Steve Rogers: Language! Jarvis, what's the view from upstairs?
Jarvis: The central building is protected by some kind of energy shield. Strucker's technology is well beyond any other Hydra base we've taken.
Thor: Loki's scepter must be here. Strucker couldn't mount this defense without it. At long last. [Natasha knocks out some soldiers]
Natasha Romanoff: At long last is lasting a little long, boys. [as some soldiers shoot at him]
Clint Barton: Yeah. I think we lost the element of surprise.
Tony Stark: Wait a second. No one else is going to deal with the fact that Cap just said "language?"
Steve Rogers: I know. [Steve throws his bike at some soldiers driving up in their truck] It just slipped out. [at the HYDRA Research Base, Sovokia, Eastern Europe]
Strucker: Who gave the order to attack?
Fortress Soldier: Herr Strucker, it's the Avengers. They landed in the far woods, the perimeter guard panicked.
Strucker: [to List] They have to be after the scepter. [to the soldier] Can we hold them?
Fortress Soldier: They are the Avengers!
Strucker: Deploy the rest of the tanks.
Fortress Soldier: Yes, sir.
Strucker: Concentrate fire on the weak ones. A hit can make them close ranks. Everything we've accomplished. But we're on the verge of our greatest breakthrough.
Dr. List: Then let's show them what we've accomplished. Send out the twins.
Strucker: It's too soon.
Dr. List: It's what they signed up for.
Strucker: My men can hold them. [Stark flies to the HYDRA base to break in]
Jarvis: Sir, the city is taking fire.
Tony Stark: Well, we know Strucker's not going to worry about civilian casualties. Send in the Iron Legion.
Iron Legion: [the Iron Legion flies in; to the civilians] This quadrant is unsafe. Please back away. We are here to help. This quadrant is unsafe. Please back away. Please back away. We wish to avoid collateral damage and will inform you when this current conflict is resolved. We are here to help. [a man throws a stone at the Iron Legion] We are here to help. [back at the HYDRA base; to his soldiers]
Strucker: We will not yield. The Americans sent their circus freaks to test us. We will send them back in bags. No Surrender!
Soldiers: No Surrender!
Strucker: [quietly to List] I am going to surrender. You will delete everything. If we give the Avengers the weapons, they may not look too far into what we've been...
Dr. List: The twins.
Strucker: They are not ready to take on...
Dr. List: No, no. I mean... [he points to where the twins Pietro and Wanda Maximoff were standing but are now gone] The twins! [Pietro speeds through the forest and knocks down Barton]
Pietro Maximoff: You didn't see that coming? [Pietro zooms off before Clint can shoot him with an arrow, then Barton gets shot at]
Natasha Romanoff: Clint! [Pietro knocks down Steve as he speeds passed him]
Steve Rogers: We have an enhanced in the field.
Natasha Romanoff: Clint's hit! [Natasha goes over to where Clint is lying down] Somebody want to deal with that bunker? [she watches the Hulk race through and angrily destroy the bunker] Thank you.
Steve Rogers: [as he's fighting with the soldiers] Stark, we're really need to get inside.
Tony Stark: I'm closing in. Jarvis, am I...closing in? Do you see a power source for that shield?
Jarvis: There's a pathway below the north tower.
Tony Stark: Great, I wanna poke it with something. [Stark blows up the invisible shield on the base]
Tony Stark: Drawbridge is down, people.
Thor: [to Steve] The Enhanced?
Steve Rogers: He's a blur. All the new player's we've faced, I've never seen this. In fact, I still haven't.
Natasha Romanoff: Clint's hit pretty bad, guys. We're gonna need evac.
Thor: [to Steve] I can get Barton to the jet. The sooner we're gone the better. You and Stark secure the scepter.
Steve Rogers: Copy that.
Thor: [referring to the approaching soldiers in their HYDRA tank] It looks like they're lining up.
Steve Rogers: Well, they're excited. [Thor pounds on Steve's shield with his hammer and the force knocks down all the soldiers]
Thor: Find the scepter. [Thor flies off]
Tony Stark: And for gosh sake, watch your language! [Steve sighs]
Steve Rogers: That's not going away anytime soon. [Stark enters the HYDRA base and the soldiers start firing at his Iron Man suit]
Tony Stark: Guys, stop, we gotta talk this through. [Stark shoots down the soldiers using his suit] It was a good talk.
Fortress Soldier: No it wasn't. [Stark finds List and knocks him out, he then steps out of his Iron Man suit]
Tony Stark: Sentry mode. [he walks over to the computers] Okay Jarvis. You know I want it all. Make sure you copy Hill at HQ.
Natasha Romanoff: We're locked down out here.
Steve Rogers: Then get to Banner, time for a lullaby. [back at the HYDRA base]
Tony Stark: I know you're hiding more than files. Hey, J, give me an IR scan of the room, real quick.
Jarvis: The wall to your left...I'm reading steel reinforcement and an air current.
Tony Stark: [to himself as he walks over to the wall] Please be a secret door, please be a secret door, please be a secret door... [he pushes and the wall opens up] Yay! [he enters through to a secret passageway Natasha finds the Hulk]
Natasha Romanoff: Hey big guy. The sun's getting real low. [the Hulk scowls at her, Natasha kneels in front of him and puts out her hand, the Hulk touches her hand and as she strokes his hand slowly he starts to calm down and changes into Bruce Banner.]
[Back at the HYDRA base Steve finds Strucker]
Steve Rogers: Baron Strucker. Hydra's number one thug.
Strucker: Technically, I'm a thug for SHIELD.
Steve Rogers: Well then technically you're unemployed. Where's Loki's scepter?
Strucker: Don't worry, I know when I'm beat. You'll mention how I cooperated, I hope.
Steve Rogers: I'll put it right under illegal human experimentation. [Wanda creeps up behind him] How many are there? [suddenly Wanda knocks Steve down using her telekinetic powers and quickly leaves] We have a second enhanced. Female. Do not engage. [he looks at Strucker]
Strucker: You'll have to be faster than... [Steve uses his shield to knock out Strucker]
Steve Rogers: Guys, I got Strucker.
Tony Stark: Yeah, I got...something bigger. [inside the secret passageway Stark finds a room with recovered artifacts from the Battle of New York, including a gigantic Chitauri leviathan and some of his Iron Man scrapped armor, he then spots the scepter] Thor, I got eyes on the prize. [Wanda creeps up behind him and uses her powers on him, suddenly the Chitauri comes to life, then Stark sees the rest of the Avengers team are all dead, he goes over to Steve's body to check his pulse when Steve suddenly grabs him]
Steve Rogers: You could've saved us. [Steve dies but Stark continues to hear Steve's voice in his head] Why didn't you do more? [Stark sees that he is in the Chitauri realm, that's when he snaps back and we realize Wanda had used her mind powers on him. Pietro and Wanda watch as goes Tony grabs the scepter]
Pietro Maximoff: We're just gonna let them take it? [Wanda smiles to herself as Tony takes the scepter]
