Loki : [as Fury tries to leave with the Tesseract] Please don't. I still need that.
Nick Fury : This doesn't have to get any messier.
Loki : Of course it does. I've come too far anything else. I am Loki, of Asgard and I am burdened with glorious purpose.
Selvig : Loki, brother of Thor.
Nick Fury : We have no quarrel with your people.
Loki : An ant has no quarrel with a boot.
Nick Fury : Are you planning to step on us?
Loki : I come with glad tidings of a world made free.
Nick Fury : Free from what?
Loki : Freedom. Freedom is life's great lie. Once you accept that, in your heart...
[walks up to Eric Selvig and touches him with the scepter]
Loki : ...you will know peace.
Nick Fury : Yeah, you say "peace," I kind of think you mean the other thing.
Clint Barton : Sir, Director Fury is stalling. This place is about to blow and drop a hundred feet of rock on us. He means to bury us.
Nick Fury : Like the pharaohs of old.
Selvig : He's right. The portal is collapsing in on itself. We've got maybe two minutes before this goes critical.
Loki : Well, then...
[Barton shoots Fury, they leave]

Jarvis : [as Iron Man arrives at Stark Tower to confront Loki and Selvig] Sir, I've shut down the Arc Reactor, but the device is already self-sustaining.
Iron Man : Shut it down, Dr. Selvig.
Selvig : It's too late! She can't stop now. She wants to show us something! A new universe.
Iron Man : OK.
[blasts the device, which defends itself with a barrier, blasting Selvig into a wall and pushing Iron Man back]
Jarvis : The barrier is pure energy. It's unbreachable.
Iron Man : Yeah I got that - Plan B.
[he turns to Loki and drifts down to his landing pad]
Jarvis : Sir, the Mark VII is not ready for deployment.
Iron Man : Then skip the spinning rims! We're on the clock!
[Lands and has his armor removed]

Selvig : The Tesseract is showing me so much. It's more than just knowledge, it's... truth.
Loki : I know. What did it show you, Agent Barton?
Clint Barton : My next target.
Loki : Tell me what you need.
Clint Barton : I'll need a distraction.
[Barton grabs his bow]
Clint Barton : And an eyeball.
