saying "sea bass"

and go after your friend.

This was so fun.

I'll just stay here

and say "sea bass" alone.

And I hate you.

What? I said he was cute.

Just shut up and drive.

(ENGINE STARTING)

- You need to take the next left.

-(GASPS)

- Who's he?

- He's my intern.

- You have an intern?

- Oh, yeah.

Hello, Dr. Foster.

It's such a great honor

to be working with you.

Right. I have to call Erik.

Oh, take a right.

(TIRES SCREECHING)

And a left.

DARCY:
I have totally mastered

driving in London.

Hi, Erik. It's me again. Where are you'?

I came here because you said you were

onto something, and then you vanish.

I'm here at Stonehenge

for what has been an

interesting unfolding of events today.

The police were called to the scene

shortly after 11 A.M. this morning

after a seemingly harmless rambler

approached the area

then, decided to strip naked

and effectively

terrorize tourists there

with scientific equipment

whilst shouting

that he was trying to save them.

The man, later identified

as noted astrophysicist Dr. Erik Selvig

has been called in

for questioning by police.

DARCY:
Come on, this is exciting.

Look! The intern is excited.

"Ian."

Do you want the phase meter?

- No.

- DARCY:
Bring the phase meter.

The toaster-looking thing.

Yeah. I know what the phase meter is.

(HIP-HOP SONG PLAYING

ON CELL PHONE)

How do I change the ringtone

on this thing?

An astrophysicist with three degrees

should be able

to change her own ringtone.

Why are you calling me?

I didn't want to shout.

Intern says it's this way.

-"Ian." My name is Ian.

- Shh.

(GASPS)

(FOOTSTEPS)

DARCY:
I am not getting stabbed

in the name of science.

It's okay, we're Americans.

Is that supposed to make them like us'?

GIRL:
They'll make it go away.

BOY:
Shh.

Oh, they're kids.

Are you the police?

No, we're scientists. Well, I am.

Thanks.

BOY:
We just found it.

Can you show us?

(GASPING)

DARCY:
That doesn't seem right.

Where'd it go?

(WHOOSHING)

That's...

That's incredible!

What happened?

GIRL:
Sometimes they come back.

Sometimes they don't.

DARCY:
I want to throw something!

Jane, give me your shoe.

I haven't seen readings like this since...

Since...

New Mexico'?

Don't touch anything!

Give me your shoe.

(KIDS LAUGHING)

Oh.

(BEEPING RAPIDLY)

(JANGLING)

Were those the car keys?

(BEEPING RAPIDLY)

(WIND WHOOSHING)

Whoa. Ah!

Oh!

(GASPING)

Darcy!

(GASPS)

(SCREECHING)

Oh!

(SCREAMS)

(GASPING)

(MOANING)

(SPEAKING ELVEN LANGUAGE)

The Aether awakens us.

The Convergence returns.

You're late.

Merriment can sometimes

be a heavier burden than battle.

Then you're doing

one of them incorrectly.

(CHUCKLING) Perhaps.

How fare the stars'?

HEIMDALL:
Still shining.

From here, I can see

nine realms and ten trillion souls.

Do you recall

what I taught you of the Convergence?

YES.

The alignment of the worlds.

It approaches, doesn't it'?

The universe hasn't seen this marvel

since before my watch began.

Few can sense it. Even fewer can see it.

But while its effects can be dangerous,

it is truly beautiful.

I see nothing.

Or, perhaps,

that is not the beauty you seek.

(CHUCKLING)

How is she?

HEIMDALL:
She's quite clever,

your mortal.

She doesn't know it yet,

but she studies

the Convergence as well.

Even...

What?

I can't see her.

(SCREECHING)

(EXHALING)

-(THUNDER RUMBLING)

- Jane!

Where the hell were you?

Tell me you didn't call the police.

What was I supposed to do'?

- Not call the police.

- I was freaking out.

You call the cops, they call the Feds.

Next thing you know,

we have S.H.l.E.L.D. crawling all over

-"Area 51-ing" the place.

- Jane.

We had a stable gravitation anomaly.

We had unimpeded access.

Our only competition was ten years old!

Jane! You were gone for five hours.

What?

(THUNDER RUMBLING)

That's weird.

(POLICE TALKING INDISTINCTLY)

Typical,

Jane.

Sorry. I just needed

to make sure you were real.

It's been a very strange day.

I am. Jane, what...

Where were you?

Where were you?

Heimdall cannot see you.

I was right here where you left me.

I was waiting, and then I was crying

and then I went out looking for you.

You said you were coming back.

I know. I know,

but the Bifrost was destroyed.

The Nine Realms erupted into chaos.

Wars were raging,

marauders were pillaging.

I had to put an end to the slaughter.

As excuses go, it's not terrible.

But I saw you on TV.

You were in New York!

Jane, I fought to protect you

from the dangers of my world

but I was wrong.

I was a fool.

But I believe

that fate brought us together.

Jane, I don't know where you were,

or what happened, but I do know this...

What?

I know...

You do'?

Do what?

What?

DARCY:
Hey!

Is this you'?

Uh, we're kind of

in the middle of something here.

Um, I'm pretty sure

we are getting arrested.

Hold that thought.

Look at you,

still all muscly and everything.

How's space?

Space is fine.

JANE:
Excuse me.

- Are you Jane Foster'?

- Yes.

Do you know this man?

He's my intern.

My intern's intern.

This is private property

and you're trespassing, the lot of you.

You'll have to come with me.

(ALL YELLING)

(GROANING)

Jane.

- Jane.

- Thor?

Are you all right?

JAN E:
What just happened?

POLICE OFFICER:
Place your hands

on your heads. Step back.

THOR:
This woman is unwell.

She's dangerous.

So am I.

Requesting armed response officers

to scene.

- Hold on to me.

- What are you doing?

(GASPING)

Holy sh*t.

(BOTH PANTING)

We have to do that again.

Hi.

Welcome to Asgard.

(MALEKITH SPEAKING

ELVEN LANGUAGE)

Look upon my' legacy'. Pilgrim.

I can barely remember a time

before the light.

Our survival will be your legacy.

The Asgardians will suffer

as we have suffered.

I will reclaim the Aether.

I will restore our world.

And I will put an end

to this poisoned universe.

JANE:
What's that?

Be still.

This is not of Earth. What is it'?

We do not know.

But she will not survive the

amount of energy surging within her.

That's a quantum field generator,

isn't it?

It's a soul forge.

Does a soul forge transfer molecular

energy from one place to another?

YES.

(WHISPERING)

Quantum field generator.

My words are mere noises to you

that you ignore them completely?

She is ill.

ODIN:
She is mortal.

Illness is their defining trait.

I brought her here

because we can help her.

She does not belong here in Asgard

any more than a goat

belongs at a banquet table.

Did he just...

Who do you think you are'?

I am Odin, King of Asgard.

Protector of the Nine Realms.

Oh. Well, I'm...

I know very well who you are,

Jane Foster.

You told your dad about me'?

Something is within her, Father.

Something I have not seen before.

Her world has its healers.

They are called "doctors."

Let them deal with it.

Guards, take her back to Midgard.

No, I would not...

(GUARDS SCREAMING)

...touch her.

Jane, are you all right'?

Yeah.

ODIN:
It's impossible.

The infection... It's defending her.
