Avengers: Infinity War Page #13

Gamora:
All my life I dreamed of a day, a moment, when you got what you deserved. And I was always so disappointed. But now, you kill and torture and you call it mercy. The universe has judged you. You asked it for a prize and it told you no. You failed. And do you wanna know why? Because you love nothing. No one.

Thanos:
[sheds a tear] No.

Gamora:
Really? Tears?

Red Skull:
They are not for him.

[Gamora realizes what Thanos is going to do]

Gamora:
No. This isn’t love.

Thanos:
I ignored my destiny once. I cannot do that again. Even for you.

[Gamora anguishly takes the double-edged knife Thanos had given her, then tries to kill herself. But Thanos uses the Reality Stone, turning the knife into bubbles]

Thanos:
[anguished] I’m sorry, Gamora.

Gamora:
[muted] NO!

Banner:
Who’s Scott?

Steve Rogers:
Ant-Man.

Banner:
There’s an Ant-Man and a Spider-Man?!

Stark:
[to the Guardians] We gotta work together. Because if all we come out with is a plucky attitude…

Quill:
Dude, don’t call us plucky. We don’t know what it means. We’re more optimistic, yes. I like your plan. Except…it sucks. So, let me do the plan and that way…it might be really good.

Drax:
Tell him about the dance-off to save the universe.

Stark:
What dance-off?

Quill:
It’s not a thing.

Parker:
Like in Footloose? The movie?

Quill:
Exactly like Footloose. Is it still the greatest movie in history?

Parker:
It never was.

Stark:
Don’t encourage this alright we’re not getting any help from Flash Gordan.

Quill:
Flash Gordon? That’s a compliment. Don’t forget, I’m half human. So that 50% of me that’s stupid, that’s 100% you.

[Thanos emerges from a teleport on the ruined Titan]

Strange:
Oh, yeah. You’re much more of a “Thanos”.

Thanos:
I take it that Maw is dead? This day extracts a heavy toll. Still, he accomplished his mission.

Strange:
You may regret that. He brought you face-to-face with the Master of the Mystic Arts.

Thanos:
Where do you think he brought you?

Strange:
Let me guess. Your home.

Thanos:
It was. [activates the Reality Stone, showing a holographic image of a populated Titan] And it was beautiful. Titan was like most planets; too many mouths, not enough to go around. And when we faced extinction, I offered a solution.

Strange:
Genocide?

Thanos:
At random. Dispassionate, fair; To rich and poor alike. They called me a madman… and what I predicted came to pass.

Strange:
Congratulations, you’re a prophet.

Thanos:
I’m a survivor.

Strange:
Who wants to murder trillions.

Thanos:
With all six stones, I could simply snap my fingers; They would all cease to exist. I call that… mercy.

Strange:
Then what?

Thanos:
I finally rest and watch the Sun rise on a grateful universe. The hardest choices require the strongest wills.

Strange:
[he summons his Mandalas, entering a fighting pose] I think you’ll find our wills equal to yours.

Thanos:
Ours?

[Stark crushes Thanos with a pillar of wreckage]

Stark:
Piece of cake, Quill.

Quill:
Yeah, if your goal is to piss him off!

Tony Stark:
So this is it. It’s all been leading to this.

Thor:
Ready?

Steve Rogers:
Let’s go.

Gamora:
He won’t stop. Until he destroys half the universe. Everything you know… Everything you love… It will all be gone.

Peter Quill:
Let’s talk about this plan of yours. I think it’s good, except it sucks. So let me do the plan and that way it might be really good.

Tony Stark:
Wow.

Thanos:
The end is near. When I’m done, half of humanity will still exist. Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.

[upon seeing Steve]

Thor:
New haircut? I notice you’ve copied my beard. Oh, by the way, this is a friend of mine. A tree.

Groot:
I am Groot.

Steve Rogers:
I am Steve Rogers.

Black Panther:
Thank you for standing with us, M’Baku.

M’baku:
Of course, brother.

Black Panther:
How much longer, Shuri?

Bruce Banner:
[trying to change into the Hulk] Hulk. Hulk, I know you like making your entrance at the last second, well, this is it, man. This is the last, last second. Hulk! Hulk! Hulk! [Hulk: NOOOO!] Oh, screw you, you big green a**hole! I’ll do it myself!

[Thanos has just got the Infinity Stones; Thor suddenly hurls Stormbreaker, which goes right into Thanos’ chest]

Thor:
I told you. You’d die for that!

[He takes hold of the back of Thanos’s head and forces Stormbreaker deeper into his chest, staring angrily into his eyes while Thanos cries out in pain]

Thanos:
You should’ve… You…. You should’ve gone for the head!!

[He raises his gauntlet and snaps his fingers]

Thor:
NO!

[Thanos is now briefly inside the Soul Stone, where he sees a young Gamora on the home world of the Zen-Whoberi]

Thanos:
Daughter?

Gamora:
Did you do it?

Thanos:
Yes.

Gamora:
[beat] What did it cost?

Thanos:
[solemly] … Everything.

[Now out of the Soul Stone, Thanos notices the damages inflicted on the scorched Gauntlet]

Thor:
What did you do? [angrily] WHAT DID YOU DO?!

[Thanos mockingly smirks at Thor before he uses the Space Stone and teleports away, leaving Stormbreaker left on the Wakandian field]

Captain America:
Where’d he go? Thor… where’d he go?

Bucky Barnes:
[feeling his prosthetic arm turning into ash] Steve?

[Bucky suddenly stumbles over, and collapses into ashes, much to Steve’s shock; Thor watches Steve mourning Bucky’s death. On the battlefield, Wakankan soldiers disintegrate to ashes, much to M’Baku’s horror]

T’Challa:
[while reaching for a fallen Okoye] Up, General. Up! This is no place to die. [he suddenly disintegrates into ashes and Okoye falls back on the ground, much to her anguish]

Okoye:
Hezvo…?!

Groot:
[resting on a tree branch; slowly disintegrating, to Rocket] I am Groot… [Translation: “Dad?”]

Rocket:
[as Groot starts slowly to corrode into ashes, much to Rocket’s horror] No…. No. No. No. No! Groot… no.

[Scarlet Witch is mourning over Vision. She then turns into ashes. An injured Falcon turns to ashes, hidden in the brush]

War Machine:
[searching for Falcon, missing him by only a few feet] Sam? Sam!? Where you at?!

[Back on Titan, the remaining members of the Guardians and Avengers help themselves up from their battle against Thanos they had lost]

Mantis:
Something… is… happening. [she gets killed into ashes]

Drax:
[to Quill; his right arm and lower-half of his body slowly turns to ashes] Quill…?

[Drax gets disintegrated next as Quill stares in horror]

Tony Stark:
Steady, Quill.

Quill:
Aw, man.

[Quill also gets disintegrated into ashes]

Strange:
[calmly turns to Stark] Tony, there was no other way. [he finally gets erased]

Parker:
[feels himself starting to disintegrate and doesn’t want to die] Mister Stark? I don’t feel so good…

Tony Stark:
[trying to be calm] You’re all right.

Parker:
[stumbling] I don’t know what’s – I don’t know what’s happening. I don’t – [Parker falls into Stark’s arms, clutching him tight and crying] Save me, save me! I don’t wanna go, I don’t wanna go, Mister Stark, please. Please, I don’t wanna go. I don’t wanna go… I’m sorry.

[Parker disintegrates into ashes in Stark’s arms]
