Samuel L. Jackson
The Winter Soldier: Assault on the Lemurian Star
[Flying over the Indian Ocean, Steve and Natasha are with a special S.H.I.E.L.D. team, S.T.R.I.K.E., led by Brock Rumlow]

BROCK RUMLOW: The target is a mobile satellite launch platform: The Lemurian Star. It was sending up their last payload when pirates took them, ninety-three minutes ago.

STEVE ROGERS: Any demands?

BROCK RUMLOW: A billion and a half.

STEVE ROGERS: Why so steep?

BROCK RUMLOW: Because it SHIELD's.

STEVE ROGERS: So it's not off course, it's trespass.

NATASHA ROMANOFF: I'm sure they have a good reason.

STEVE ROGERS: You know, I'm getting a little tired of being Fury's janitor.

NATASHA ROMANOFF: Relax, it's not that complicated.

STEVE ROGERS: How many pirates?

BROCK RUMLOW: Twenty-five, top mercs, led by this guy. Georges Batroc. [he shows them a photo of Batroc on the monitor] Ex-TGSE, Action Division. He's at the top of Interpol's "red notice". Before the French demobilized him, he had thirty-six kill missions. This guy's got a rep for maximum casualties.

STEVE ROGERS: Hostages?
BROCK RUMLOW: Uh...mostly techs. One officer, Jasper Sitwell. [he pulls up Sitwell's photo on the monitor] They're in the galley.

STEVE ROGERS: What's Sitwell doing on a launch ship? Alright, I'm gonna sweep the deck and find Batroc. Nat, you'll kill the engines and wait for instructions. Rumlow, you sweep aft, find the hostages, get them to life pods. get 'em out. Let's go.

BROCK RUMLOW: S.T.R.I.K.E., you heard the Captain. Gear up! [as they are getting ready to dive off the jet; into his radio]

STEVE ROGERS: Secure channel seven.

NATASHA ROMANOFF: Seven secure. [to Steve] You do anything fun Saturday night?

STEVE ROGERS: Well, all the guys from my barbershop quartet are dead, so... No, not really.

BROCK RUMLOW: Coming up by the drop zone, Cap.

NATASHA ROMANOFF: You know, if you ask Kristen out, from Statistics, she'll probably say yes.

STEVE ROGERS: That's why I don't ask.

Natasha Romanoff: Too shy or too scared?

STEVE ROGERS: Too busy! [Steve jumps out of the jet]

STRIKE Agent: Was he wearing a parachute? [Rumlow smiles]

BROCK RUMLOW: No. No, he wasn't.
[after jumping out the jet Steve dives into the ocean and then climbs onto the ship, he then beats everyone on the deck swiftly before anyone raises the alarm when he's interrupted by one of the pirates pointing his gun at him]

DECK FRENCH PIRATE: [subtitled] Don't move! [he's shot dead by Rumlow as he parachutes down onto the deck behind Steve]

STEVE ROGERS: Thanks.

BROCK RUMLOW: [smirking] Yeah. You seemed pretty helpless without me.

[Natasha and another agent parachute down onto the deck to join them]

NATASHA ROMANOFF: What about the nurse that lives across the hall from you? She seems kind of nice.

STEVE ROGERS: Secure the engine room, then find me a date.

NATASHA ROMANOFF: I'm multitasking.

[below deck we see the pirates are holding the ship's crew, including Sitwell, hostage]

FRENCH PIRATE #1: [subtitled] I said to Batroc, if we want SHIELD to pay, we have to start sending bodies now! [to the hostages] [subtitled] I have a bullet for someone. [shouting in English] You want a bullet in your head?! [he kicks one of the hostage's leg] [subtitled] Move that leg. Want a bullet in your head?

[meanwhile on the deck Steve moves quickly to find the hostages; in the control room]

GEORGE BATROC: [subtitled] I do not like to wait. Call Durand. I want the ship ready to go as soon as the rescue arrives.

FRENCH PIRATE: [subtitled] Yes, Batroc. [he makes the call] Durand. Start the engine.
DURAND: Okay. [Durand puts the phone down, turns and sees Natasha behind him]

NATASHA ROMANOFF: Hey, sailor. [she quickly knocks him down and manages to swing down below deck shooting several of the pirates on the way]

FRENCH PIRATE #1: [subtitled; to one of the hostages] Shut up. What is it? Want to be a hero? [he looks at the hostages who keep their heads down] [subtitled] Well, I've waited long enough. [he goes over to the locked door and bangs on it to get the attention of the pirate guarding outside] Hey, look for Batroc. If I do not hear in two minutes, I'll start to kill them!

FRENCH PIRATE #3: [subtitled] Okay. I'll find him! [as the pirate turns to leave Rumlow, who's standing behind him with a stun gun, shoots him, on the other side of the door the other pirate senses something but dismisses it] Two minutes. [we see Rumlow and another STRIKE Agent places a bomb on the locked door]

[in the control room]

FRENCH PIRATE #2: [subtitled] Radio Silence from S.H.I.E.L.D., Batroc. [Steve watches them from the deck, we see another S.T.R.I.K.E. agent getting in position]

S.T.R.I.K.E. Agent: Targets acquired.

[below deck Rumlow points his gun at the bomb placed against door where the hostages are being kept]

BROCK RUMLOW: S.T.R.I.K.E. in position.

STEVE ROGERS: [into the radio] Natasha, what's your status? [we see Natasha jumping down below deck to knock out one of the pirates] Status, Natasha?

NATASHA ROMANOFF: Hang on! [as the pirate attacks her she quickly knocks him out; into her radio] Engine room secure.

FRENCH PIRATE #1: [subtitled] Time's up. Who wants to die first? [to one of his men] Hey, you! Take the girl. [into his radio]

STEVE ROGERS: On my mark. Three. Two. One. [the STRIKE team start shooting at the pirates, blow open the door and Rumlow quickly kills the head pirate]

JASPER SITWELL: I told you, S.H.I.E.L.D. doesn't negotiate. [back in the control room one of Batroc's men tries to get hold of the pirate below deck]

FRENCH PIRATE #2: [subtitled] Hello? Batroc, the line is dead. I lost contact with them. [just then Steve smashes in through the window using his shield but Batroc manages to escape; to Steve as he goes looking for Batroc]

BROCK RUMLOW: Hostages enroot to extraction. Romanoff missed the rendezvous point, Captain. Hostiles are still in play.

STEVE ROGERS: Natasha, Batroc's on the move. Circle back to Rumlow and protect the hostages. [there's no reply from Natasha] Natasha! [suddenly Batroc attacks Steve, they fight on the deck of the ship, with Batroc getting quickly back up on his feet]

GEORGE BATROC: [subtitled] I thought that you were more than just a mask. [Steve puts the shield on his back and takes off his mask]

STEVE ROGERS: [subtitled] Let's find out. [they start fighting again, Steve manages to finally knock Batroc down by smashing through into one of the rooms where Natasha is downloading something from the computer]

NATASHA ROMANOFF: Well, this is awkward.

STEVE ROGERS: What are you doing?

NATASHA ROMANOFF: Backing up the hard drive. It's a good habit to get into.

STEVE ROGERS: Rumlow needed your help. What the hell are you doing here? [Steve goes over to Natasha and looks at what Natasha is backing up] You're saving S.H.I.E.L.D. Intel.

NATASHA ROMANOFF: Whatever I can get my hands on.

STEVE ROGERS: Our mission is to rescue hostages.

NATASHA ROMANOFF: No. That's your mission. [she finishes backing up and pulls the flash drive out] And you've done it beautifully. [as Natasha goes to leave Steve grabs her arm]

STEVE ROGERS: You just jeopardized this whole operation.

Natasha Romanoff: I think that's overstating things. [suddenly Batroc rises and throws a grenade at the two as he runs off, Steve deflects the bomb with his shield, grabs Natasha and jumps through a window before it explodes] Okay. That one's on me.

STEVE ROGERS: You damn right. [Steve gets up and leaves in anger]

[The Triskelion, S.H.I.E.L.D. Headquarters; Steve walks into Fury's office]

STEVE ROGERS: You just can't stop yourself from lying, can you?

NICK FURY: I didn't lie. Agent Romanoff had a different mission than yours.

STEVE ROGERS: Which you didn't feel obliged to share.

NICK FURY: I'm not obliged to do anything.

STEVE ROGERS: Those hostages could've died, Nick.

NICK FURY: I sent the greatest soldier in history to make sure that didn't happen.

STEVE ROGERS: Soldiers trust each other, that's what makes it an army. Not a bunch of guys running around and shooting guns.

NICK FURY: The last time I trusted someone, I lost an eye. Look, I didn't want you doing anything you weren't comfortable with. Agent Romanoff is comfortable with everything.

STEVE ROGERS: I can't lead a mission when the people I'm leading have missions of their owns.

NICK FURY: It's called compartmentalization. Nobody spills the secrets because nobody knows them all.

STEVE ROGERS: Except you.

NICK FURY: You're wrong about me. I do share. I'm nice like that. [Fury steps into an elevator with Steve following behind him] Insight bay.

S.H.I.E.L.D. Computer: Captain Rogers does not have clearance for Project Insight.

NICK FURY: Director override, Fury, Nicholas J.

S.H.I.E.L.D. Computer: Confirmed. [the elevator starts moving down]

STEVE ROGERS: You know, they used to play music.

NICK FURY: Yeah. My grandfather operated one of these things for forty years. My granddad worked in a nice building, he got good tips. He'd walk home every night, roll of ones stuffed in his lunch bag. He'd say "hi", people would say hi back. Time went on, neighborhood got rougher. He'd say "Hi", they'd say, "Keep on steppin'." Granddad got to grippin' that lunch bag a little tighter.

STEVE ROGERS: Did he ever get mugged?

NICK FURY: Every week some punk would say, "What's in the bag?"

STEVE ROGERS: Well, what did he do?

NICK FURY: He'd show 'em. A bunch of crumpled ones and loaded 0.22 Magnum. [Fury smiles] Granddad loved people. But he didn't trust them very much. [as they continue to ride down the elevator Steve notices the giant Helicarriers and his eyes grow wide] Yeah, I know. They're a little bit bigger than a 0.22. [as Fury shows Steve round] This is Project Insight. Three next generation Helicarriers synced to a network of targeting satellites.

STEVE ROGERS: Launched from the Lemurian Star.

NICK FURY: Once we get them in the air they never need to come down. Continuous suborbital flight courtesy of our new repulser engines.

STEVE ROGERS: Stark?

NICK FURY: Well, he had a few suggestions once he got an up close look at our old turbines. These new long range precision guns can eliminate a thousand hostiles a minute. The satellites can read a terrorist's DNA before he steps outside his spider hole. We gonna neutralize a lot of threats before they even happen.

STEVE ROGERS: I thought the punishment usually came after the crime.

NICK FURY: We can't afford to wait that long.

STEVE ROGERS: Who's "we"?

NICK FURY: After New York, I convinced the World Security Council we needed a quantum surgeon threat analysis. For once we're way ahead of the curve.

STEVE ROGERS: By holding a gun at everyone on Earth and calling it protection.

NICK FURY: You know, I read those SSR files. Greatest generation? You guys did some nasty stuff.

STEVE ROGERS: Yeah, we compromised. Sometimes in ways that made us not sleep so well. But we did it so the people could be free. This isn't freedom, this is fear.

NICK FURY: S.H.I.E.L.D. takes the world as it is, not as we'd like it to be. It's getting damn near past time for you to get with that program, Cap.

STEVE ROGERS: Don't hold your breath. [Steve turns and walks away]
