Tom Hiddleston nel ruolo di...
Loki
- [taking Casey hostage]
- Loki: What's your name?
- Casey: Casey.
- Loki: Give me the Tesseract or I'll gut you like a fish, Casey!
- Casey: What's a fish?
- Loki: How do you not know what a fish is?
- Casey: I've lived my entire life behind a desk.
- Loki: Well, what difference does it make?
- Casey: I wanna know exactly what I'm being threatened with before I comply.
- Loki: Death, Casey! Violent, painful death!
- Casey: Okay, okay. I comply, I comply, I comply. Jeez!
- [Having seen where his future will lead to, Loki has given up escaping and returned to Mobius' office]
- Loki: I don't enjoy hurting people. I...
- [sighs]
- Loki: I don't enjoy it. I do it because I've had to.
- Mobius: Okay, explain that to me.
- Loki: Because it's part of the illusion. It's the cruel, elaborate trick conjured by the weak to inspire fear.
- Mobius: A desperate play for control. You do know yourself.
- Loki: A villain.
- [sighs]
- Mobius: That's not how I see it.
- [Loki is one of two people in an extended wait in line]
- Loki: [angrily] THIS IS A MISTAKE! I SHOULDN'T BE HERE!
- Miss Minutes: [narration] Hey there! You're probably saying, "This is a mistake. I shouldn't even be here." Welcome to the Time Variance Authority. I'm Miss Minutes, and it's my job to catch you up before you stand trial for your crimes. So let's not waste another minute. Settle in, sharpen your pencils, and check this out. Long ago, there was a vast Multiversal war. Countless unique timelines battled each other for supremacy, nearly resulting in the total destruction of, well, everything. But then, the all-knowing Timekeepers emerged, bringing peace by re-organizing the Multiverse into a single timeline, the Sacred Timeline. Now, the Timekeepers protect and preserve the proper flow of time for everyone and everything. But sometimes, people like you veer off the path the Timekeepers created. We call those variants. Maybe you started an uprising, or were just late for work; whatever it was, stepping off your path created a Nexus event, which, left unchecked, could branch off into madness, leading to another Multiversal war! But don't worry, to make sure that doesn't happen, the Timekeepers created the TVA and all its incredible workers! The TVA has stepped in to fix your mistake, and set time back on its predetermined path. Now that your actions have left you without a place on the timeline, you must stand trial for your offenses. So sit tight and we'll get you in front of a judge in no time! Just make sure you have your ticket, and you'll be seen by the next available attendant. TVA - For all time, always!
- Loki: "Timekeepers"? "The Sacred Timeline"? Who actually believes this bunkum?
- [Mobius begins showing Loki the aftermath of the Battle of New York; Loki turns away in embarassment]
- Loki: [on recording] If it's all the same to you, I'll have that drink now.
- [Mobius offers Loki a soda]
- Loki: No. And I remember. I was there. Anything else?
- Mobius: It's funny, for someone born to rule, you sure do lose a lot. You might even say it's in your nature.
- Loki: You know, things didn't turn out so well for the last person who said that to me.
- Mobius: Oh, yeah. Phil Coulson.
- [the events of Loki stabbing Coulson in the back with Thor watching in despair are shown, followed by the Avengers coming together as a team]
- Mobius: Didn't the Avengers come together to literally avenge him by defeating you?
- Loki: Little solace to a dead man.
- Mobius: Do you enjoy hurting people? Making them feel small? Making them feel afraid?
- Loki: Your games don't frighten me.
- Mobius: Making them feel little?
- Loki: I know what I am.
- Mobius: A murderer?
- Loki: A liberator.
- Mobius: Of eyeballs, maybe.
- [sees the sequence where a smiling Loki carves out a man's eyeball]
- Mobius: Look at that smile. You are enjoying that. Did you enjoy hurting them?
- Loki: I don't have to play this game. I'm a god.
- Mobius: Of what, again? Mischief, right?
- [Loki and Mobius are in an elevator together]
- Loki: Are you taking me somewhere to kill me?
- Mobius: No, that's where you just were. I'm taking you someplace to talk.
- Loki: I don't like to talk.
- Mobius: No, but you do like to lie, which you just did because we both know you love to talk.
- [makes mouth movements with his hands]
- Mobius: Talkie-talkie.
- Mobius: You're gonna start taking things more seriously.
- [Mobius begins showing Loki footage of the future he hasn't experienced yet, beginning from "Thor: The Dark World"]
- Mobius: If you hadn't picked up the Tesseract, you would've been taken to a cell on Asgard.
- [shows Loki meets with his adopted mother, Frigga]
- Frigga: Loki.
- Loki: Hello, Mother. Have I made you proud?
- Frigga: Please, don't make this worse.
- Loki: What is this? This is nonsense, more tricks. This never even happened.
- Mobius: Not to you, not yet. Look, the TVA doesn't just know your whole past, we know your whole life, how it's all meant to be. Think of it as comforting.
- Loki: This is absurd.
- [Loki sees his final meeting with Frigga]
- Frigga: And am I not your mother?
- Loki: You're not.
- Frigga: Hmmm. Always so perceptive about everyone but yourself.
- Mobius: And then the Dark Elves attack the palace, and you think you send them to Thor...
- [sees Loki talking to Kurse]
- Loki: You might wanna take the stairs to the left.
- Mobius: But instead, you send them...
- [shows Frigga's death]
- Frigga: I'll never tell!
- [Frigga is killed]
- Loki: [outraged] Where do you have her? Where is she?
- Mobius: You lead them right to her.
- Loki: I don't believe you. You're lying. It's not true.
- Mobius: It is true. That's the proper flow of time and it happens again and again and again because it's supposed to, because it has to. The TVA makes sure of it.
- Loki: Where is she?
- Mobius: Now why don't you tell me, do you enjoy hurting people?
- Loki: I don't believe you.
- Mobius: Do you enjoy killing?
- Loki: I'll kill you.
- Mobius: Like you did your mother?
- Paperwork Clerk: Please confirm to your knowledge that you are not a fully robotic being, were born an organic creature, and do in fact possess what many cultures would call a soul.
- Loki: What? "To my knowledge"? Do a lot of people not know if they're robots?
- Paperwork Clerk: Thank you for your conformation. Please move through.
- Loki: [to himself] What if I was a robot and I didn't know it?
- Paperwork Clerk: The machine would melt you from the inside out. Please move along, sir.
- [speaking in Mobius' office]
- Loki: You don't know anything about me.
- Mobius: Maybe I'd like to learn. I specialize in the pursuit of dangerous Variants.
- Loki: Like myself?
- Mobius: Mmm. No. Particularly dangerous Variants. You're just a little pussycat. I got a series of questions for you. You answer them honestly, and then maybe I can give you something you want. You wanna get out of here, right? Yeah, so we'll start there.
- [beat]
- Mobius: Should you return, what are you gonna do?
- Loki: [firmly] Finish what I started.
- Mobius: Which is?
- Loki: Claim my throne.
- Mobius: You wanna be king?
- Loki: I don't want to be, I was born to be.
- Mobius: I know, but king of what exactly?
- Loki: [scoffs] You wouldn't understand.
- Mobius: Try me.
- Loki: Midgard.
- Mobius: AKA Earth. Alright, now you're the king of Midgard. Now what? Happily ever after?
- Loki: Asgard, the Nine Realms. Space?
- Mobius: Space? Space is big. That'd be a nice little feather in your cap. "Loki, the King of Space".
- Loki: Mock me if you dare.
- Mobius: No, I'm not.
- [chuckles]
- Mobius: Honestly, I'm actually a fan. Yeah. And I guess I'm wondering why does someone with so much range just wanna rule?
- Loki: I would've made it easy for them.
- Mobius: People like easy.
- Loki: The first and most oppressive lie ever uttered was the song of freedom. For nearly every living thing, choice breeds shame and uncertainty and regret. There's a fork in every road, yet the wrong path always taken.
- [Loki falls into an office face-to-face with a no-nonsense paperwork clerk sitting next to a vertical conveyor belt. The clerk pushes an extremely large stack of papers towards Loki]
- Paperwork Clerk: Please sign to verify this is everything you've ever said.
- Loki: What?
- [the clerk turns to the conveyor belt, pulls off a sheet, and places it on top of the stack; it reads "What?"]
- Paperwork Clerk: Sign this too.
- Loki: This is absurd!
- [Again, the clerk turns to the conveyor belt, pulls off a sheet, and places it on top of the stack; this one reads "This is absurd!"]
- Paperwork Clerk: And this.
- [Completely and utterly mystified, Loki begrudgingly signs the papers]
