What If...? · Season 1
[Natasha hears someone behind her.]
You won't win. [Stands up and turns to face the person] Not against me. Not against S.H.I.E.L.D.
[Natasha gets thrown around repeatedly, dropping her phone in the process.]
You found me. You know what to do.
[Natasha keeps getting thrown around repeatedly until she is thrown up the ceiling, then falls on the floor.]
[Crawls towards her phone] Fury, it's Hope! It's all about Hope! [Gets dragged into the darkness]
[addressing a subjugated Earth from the United Nations Headquarters] Good evening, my loyal subjects. It is with great pride that I stand before you today to announce that in just one day's time, the nations of Earth have put aside their differences and united under my command. It's the unspoken truth of humanity that you crave subjugation. The bright lure of freedom hobbles you, diminishes your life's joy. You were made to be ruled. So I have come... to help you fulfill... your destiny.
The Avengers fell before they had a chance to rise. May they rest in peace.
They can. But we won't. The Avengers were always meant to be more than a team. They were an idea, the affirmation of humanity's need to believe that in our darkest hour, we will find our heroes.
[Fury is exploring the Valkyrie.]
[closing narration] I believe that in this universe, as in every other, hope never dies– as long as someone keeps their good eye on the bigger picture.
[Fury notices Captain America's shield covered in snow, prompting him to crouch down and wipe away the snow covering the shield.]
Welcome back, Captain. [Turns around and sees Carol behind him]
So, where's the fight?
We have watched how one moment, one choice, can ripple across space and time, giving birth to new stories. Heroes. Whole universes. But what if it's the wrong choice? What if the best of intentions has very strange consequences?
Come this way, Sorcerer Armani.
No, it's- It's "Strange".
Not any stranger than any other name in this world.
Where can I find Cagliostro?
Well, maybe here, maybe there. Maybe nowhere.
[sarcastic] Wonderful. You're cryptic. Please tell me you're not Cagliostro.
Hey, do you wanna talk? Maybe put on some music?
I only want you. You're the only thing that matters.
Is she worth the pain? A man does not suffer like this for his own glory.
Every moment of it.
There is a fine line between devotion and delusion. Love can break more than your heart. It can shatter your mind.
Uh-huh. And in which book did you read that?
No book, Armani. Life taught me.
[thinking out loud while observing Strange] He's on the wrong path. I could warn him. Intervene. But the fate of his universe is not worth risking the safety of all others. Besides, I doubt he'd listen.
[hears the Watcher's voice] Hello? Who's there?
Even in our world, death is part of the plan.
I can't accept that.
I know. I know. But maybe the other Strange will.
"Other"?
Can't you see? You are only half a man, living half a life.
I love you.
I wish that was true, but you're... You're not her.
[to the Watcher] YOU! You can stop this! Please... Fix this...
The same way you "fixed" Christine?
I was wrong, I—
You were warned.
I know, but the world! The world shouldn't pay for my arrogance. I-I read about you; sensed your presence. You're a god. You can undo this.
I'm not a god. And neither are you.
Then punish me! Not the world, not Christine.
Honestly, if I could fix this, if I could punish you instead, I would. But I can't interfere. You, more than anyone else, should understand that meddling with time and events only leads to more destruction.
No... NOOOOOO!!! I didn't mean for this to happen!
[introducing a Zombie apocalypse orientation video] New York! Home of the Mets, the Chrysler Building, those ladies from Sex and the City, and now, the zombie apocalypse!! If you can make it here, you can make it anywhere. But first, you have to not get eaten.
Zombie-freakin'-apocalypse, and somehow, I'm still driving.
What is the problem? I thought you were an Uber driver.
No. No, I'm a personal chauffeur. There's a difference.
