I think every MCU fan needs to know that while the Avengers are squabbling with Fury under the influence of the Scepter, this exchange happens. Only fragments of it are audible, but is preserved on the subtitle track:
Thor: You treat your champions with such mistrust.
Natasha: Are you boys really that naive? SHIELD monitors potential threats.
Bruce: Captain America’s on threat watch?
Natasha: We all are.
Tony: Wait, you’re on that list? Are you above or below angry bees?
Steve: Stark, so help me God, if you make one more wisecrack…
Tony: Threat! Verbal threat! I feel threatened!
Steve: Show some respect.
Tony: Respect what?Are you above or below angry bees?
Are you above or below angry bees?
ARE YOU ABOVE OR BELOW ANGRY BEES?
Tony gets a text from an anonymous text post cap-2.
It reads “Could angry bees have done that?”
Tony is confused for a second but then he laughs. And then he has to ring Hank Pym, because the guy’s nuts about bugs and might actually know if it’s possible for a swarm of angry bees to take down three helicarriers, but he loses interest about five minutes into Hank’s monologue.
