Iron Man 3

A famous man once said:

"We create our own demons".

Who said that? What does that even mean? Doesn't matter.

I said it cause he said it.

So now he was famous and basically getting said by two well-known guys.

I don't, uh... I'm gonna start again.

Let's track this from the beginning.

Half-hour 'till the ball drops.

Tony stark, great speech man!

I gave a speech?

- How was it? - Edifying.

Unintelligible.

Really? That's my favorite kind, a winning combo.

- Hey, uh, where are we going? - Uh, to town on each other,

probably back at your house. I want to see your research.

Okay, you can see my research, but that's...

I'm not going to show you my "town".

- Mr. stark, ho yinsen. - Oh, I finally met a man called ho.

I'd like to introduce you to our guest, doctor wu.

- Oh this guy. - Mr. stark.

Hey.

She's going to need a cardiologist right away.

- Bye! - Perhaps another time?

It started in bern, Switzerland, 1999.

The old days.

I never thought they'd come back to bite me.

Hey Tony! Aldrich killian, I'm a big fan of your work.

- My work? - Who isn't? She needs me.

Well, of course, but miss Hansen my organization

has been tracking your research since year two of mit.

Oh wow, he made it. He made the cut.

What floor you going to, pal?

Well now, that is an appropriate question.

The ground floor, actually, of a proposal I'm putting together myself.

It's a privately-funded think tank called "advanced idea mechanics".

Uh, she'll take both. One to throw away and one to not call.

"Advanced idea mechanics" or aim for short, you get it?

I see that 'cause it's on your t-shirt.

Oh!

Ladies, follow the mullet. Ladies first.

Thank you. I'll call you.

I am titillated by the notion of working with you.

Yeah?

I'm going to ditch these clowns.

I'll see you up on the roof in five minutes.

I'm just going to try to get my beef wet real

quick if you know what I'm talkin' about.

I'll see you up there!

Damn betcha.

Come on, I thought that was just a theory.

Well... it was.

If I'm right, we can access the area of the brain

that governs repair and chemically recode it.

That's incredible.

Essentially, you're hacking into the genetic operating system of a

- living organism. - Exactly.

Can you not touch my plant? It's not... She doesn't like it. She prefers...

She's not like the others.

Come on, let's go to the bedroom.

Happy, leave her ficus alone.

No, seriously, don't.

- And you're starting with plants? - For now, yes.

I'm calling it "extremis".

- Well, it's... - Human application.

Exactly! Exactly! Dentra-degree vitalization.

Disease prevention.

Even limb regrowth.

You're the most gifted woman I've ever met.

- Wow! - In Switzerland.

- That's better. - This week.

You almost bought it, didn't you?

This is what I'm talking about, the glitch.

Have you checked the telomerase algorithm?

- We're good. - Stay down.

You're right on me...

What the hell was that?

What the hell was that?

It's a glitch in my work.

She was just talking about it. Glitches happen.

Oh, it's not y2k...

Hey, happy new year!

- Happy new year. - Happy new year.

Alright, I'll see you in the morning, okay? Good night.

You good?

- Yep. - I'll be right outside.

Okay, cool.

So, why am I telling you this? Because I had just created demons.

And I didn't even know it.

Yeah, those were good times.

Then I moved on.

After a brief soiree in an Afghan cave, I said "goodbye" to the party scene.

I forgot that night in Switzerland.

These days I'm a changed man.

I'm different now.

I'm... well, you know who I am.

Sir, please may I request

just a few hours to calibrate... - Nope!

Micro-repeater implanting sequence complete!

As you wish, sir. I've also prepared a

safety briefing for you to entirely ignore.

Which I will.

Alright, let's do this.

Dummy. Hi dummy. How did you get that cap on your head?

You earned it.

Hey. Hey!

What are you doing out of the corner? You know what you did.

Blood on my mat, handle it.

Sir, may I remind you that you've been awake for nearly 72 hours.

Focus up ladies. Good evening.

And welcome to the birthing suite.

I am pleased to announce the imminent arrival

of your bouncing, badass baby brother.

Start titan and go white. Stamp date and time.

Mark 42 autonomous prehensile propulsion suit test.

Initialize sequence.

Jarvis, drop my needle.

Crap.

Alright, I think we got this. Send them all.

Probably just a little fast, slow it down. Slow it down just a... little bit.

Cool it, will you Jarvis?

Come on.

I ain't scared of you.

I'm the best.

As always sir, a great pleasure watching you work.

I guess 72 hours is a long time between siestas.

Didn't think it could get any worse.

Then they had to go and turn on the TV.

That's when 'he' happened.

Some people call me a terrorist.

I consider myself a teacher.

America...

Ready for another lesson.

In 1864 in sand creek, Colorado.

The U.S. military waited until the friendly Cheyenne braves had all gone hunting.

Waited to attack and slaughter the families left behind.

And claim their land.

39 hours ago, the Ali Al Salem air base in Kuwait was attacked.

I did that.

A quaint military church, filled with wives and children of course.

The soldiers were out on maneuvers.

The "braves" were away.

President Ellis, you continue to resist my attempts to educate you, sir.

And now, you've missed me again.

You know who I am. You don't know where I am.

And you'll never see me coming.

And now that we seem to be back, let's recap some

of the frightening developments in this story.

American airways were hijacked.

The nation remains on high alert.

All attempts to find the mandarin have so far proved unsuccessful.

Central to my administration's response to this

terrorist event is a newly-minted resource.

I know him as colonel James rhodes.

The American people will soon know him as the iron patriot.

And how is president Ellis responding?

By taking the guy they call "war machine" and giving him a paint job.

The same suit but painted red, white and Blue, look at that.

And they've also renamed him iron patriot.

You know, just in case the paint was too subtle.

It tested well with focus groups, alright?

- I am iron patriot. - Listen.

War machine was a little too aggressive, alright.

This sends a better message.

So what's really going on? With mandarin.

Seriously, can we talk about this guy?

It's classified information, Tony.

- Okay, there've been nine bombings. - Nine.

The public only knows about three.

But here's the thing... Nobody can ID a device.

There's no bomb casings.

You know I can help.

Just ask. I got a ton of new tech. I got a prehensile suit. I got.

Bomb disposal.

Catches explosions mid-air.

When's the last time you got a good night's sleep?

Einstein slept three hours a year. Look what he did.

People are concerned about you, Tony.

I'm concerned about you.

You gonna come at me like that?

No, look, I'm not trying to be a dictator.

Would you mind signing my drawing?

If Richard doesn't mind. You alright with this, dick?

Fine with me.

- What is your name? - Erin.

I loved you in "a Christmas story" by the way.

Listen, the Pentagon is scared.

After New York, aliens, come on.

They need to look strong.

Stopping the mandarin is a priority, but it's not...

It's not superhero business.

No, it's not. Quite frankly.

It's American business.

That's why I said. I... got it.

Are you okay?

I broke the crayon.

Are you okay, Mr. stark?

Take it easy. Tony...

How did you get out of the wormhole?

- Tony... - What did you say?

Sorry. Have to check on the suit... make sure... okay.
