When he wakes up, Selvig finds himself alone with the Black Widow, who's attempting to close the portal. WithLoki's mind-control gone, Selvig tells her that some part of his consciousness was still awake during Loki's mind-control, and that he inserted a flaw in the Asgardians' plan: the force field around the Tesseract can be undone with Loki's scepter. After following Selvig's advice, the Black Widow uses the scepter to close the portal.
