"Okay, remember, everyone Thanossnapped away five years ago... You're just bringing them back to now, today. Don't change anything from the last five years."
The 35-year-old Jemma Simmons argues with Leo Fitz, saying D.I.A.N.A. was only supposed to make her forget his location, not this as well. Fitz says she has to forget so she can be strong to do what is necessary, and that she will not be upset because she will not know what she has forgotten, but Simmons says she will nonetheless feel the guilt inside for leaving a part of herself behind, torn away. She cries that she does not want to forget, and Fitz embraces and comforts her.[2][4][3]
Having been comforted to accept what she has to do, Simmons puts pillows and a duvet into the Containment Module for the final stages of the plan.[2][3]
Steve Rogers attends a therapy group with other Snap survivors. One of the members, Bobby, talks about how he has tackled the tough step of going on a date for the first time in 5 years. Rogers congratulates him and talks about the fact that they need to take baby steps to move on, something he himself struggled with after losing the love of his life in 1945, and states that they need to do something with their lives, otherwise Thanos might as well have killed them all.[5][6]
The security guard at the facility is surprised to see Lang on the security feed, and lets him out.[5][6]
After his release, Lang finds the city is mostly abandoned. He asks a passer-by what happened, but the boy does not respond.[5][6]
The Wall of the Vanished
Lang finds the Wall of the Vanished, a monument in San Francisco listing the local victims of the Snap 5 years earlier. Fearful for his daughter, he scans the monument for the Lang surname, only to instead find his own name, presumed dead due to his disappearance the same day as the event.[5][6]
Visiting his ex-wife's house, Scott Lang desperately rings the doorbell. Cassie, now 16 years old, comes to the door. Scott is stunned by her age, and Cassie is overwhelmed to find out her father is actually alive. They embrace.[5][6]
6th
"The federales found a room full of bodies, looks like a bunch of cartel guys - never even got a chance to get their guns out."
Carol Danvers pings Rocket Raccoon and Nebula about a suspect warship that they are closer to than her, asking her to investigate. The duo, however, find it to just be an infectious garbage scowl.[5][6]
Tremors in Africa are caused by a mild subduction under the African plate. Okoye goes to get readings on the tremors.[5][6]
At the Avengers Compound, Natasha Romanoff conducts a meeting via hologram with Nebula, Rocket Raccoon, Okoye, Captain Marvel, and War Machine, getting updates about the status of the galaxy and Wakanda and its surrounding area. Okoye explains the tremors were just tremors, and there is nothing to be done about them. Danvers then explains that the kind of trouble Earth is going through is also occurring across many planets, so she is having to cover a lot of territory and may not be around for a while.[5][6]
The group all shut down their holograms save for Rhodes, who tells Romanoff that he is in Mexico that there has been a cartel massacre, and that the perpetrator was definitely Clint Barton - the latest in a series of attacks by him over the preceding few years. She sadly asks him to still keep looking for where he might be heading next.[5][6]
Steve Rogers arrives at the facility to check in on his friend. He admits that while he tells people they should move on, he cannot himself, and that he knows Romanoff cannot either. Romanoff tells her friend that the Avengers gave her a job and family that she did not have beforehand, and she was better for it, still trying now even though the group is gone to be better. Rogers notes they should probably both "get a life", but Romanoff sadly smiles, joking, "You first." They are interrupted by a call at the front gate, and when Romanoff answers, they find Scott Lang, announcing himself and saying he really needs to talk to them.[5][6]
Once Lang has been welcomed inside, he tells the duo that while he was gone for 5 years, he only experienced 5 hours in the Quantum Realm. He explains to them that the realm operates on its own, unpredictable rules of time, suggesting that if there were a way to navigate it temporally, it could potentially be exploited to effectively time travel to before Thanos' attack, opening a possibility of finding a way to reverse the Snap. Romanoff is willing to entertain the idea, and Lang asks who they need to talk to.[5][6]
Tony Stark goes to get his 4-year-old daughter, Morgan, from her tent outside his and Pepper Potts' home. He discovers Morgan has gone into the garage and taken a helmet from something he had made for her mother, and picks her up to take her inside for lunch. As he heads back, Steve Rogers, Scott Lang, and Natasha Romanoff arrive at the house.[5][6]
The group explain their proposal to Stark, but he explains that time travel is not navigable. Rogers points out the Infinity Stones are still around in the past, so they could get them, with Romanoff saying they could click their fingers themselves to bring the lost people back, Lang nicknaming the plan a "Time Heist". Stark worries they could just make things even worse, but when Rogers suggests they might not, Stark points out that there is still no logical, tangible way to safely execute the Time Heist. Lang thinks he can convince him so long as they follow the "rules of time travel", but Stark points out his idea is naively based on Back to the Future, which is not how quantum physics works. Lang angrily points out that many people, himself included, lost people who they care about, but Stark simply states that he cannot agree to help. Morgan comes back out and Tony tells the team that she already is his second chance.[5][6]
Smart Hulk helping in the streets of New York City
Hulk, now a merged version of himself retaining the green muscular form but Banner's intelligence and personality, saves a group of civilians from a burning building. He receives a call from Steve Rogers about experimenting with time travel.[5][6]
9th
Rogers, Lang, and Romanoff visit Hulk, meeting with him in a diner. Some children come over and take a photo with him, and Lang is disappointed when they are not interested in a photo with Ant-Man. When Rogers brings up the time travel possibility, Hulk is initially skeptical, but with Romanoff's encouragement, agrees to help them experiment with the idea.[5][6]
Tony Stark is washing dishes when he accidentally sprays a photo on his shelf. Wiping it clean, he finds it's a picture of himself with Peter Parker. The photo reminds him of what he lost, and he decides to give time travel theory a try.[5][6]
Tony Stark uses F.R.I.D.A.Y. to run different configurations for navigating time. He is shocked when one, revolving around an inverted Möbius strip, turns out to be feasible. Morgan interrupts him, and he takes her up to bed.[5][6]
As Morgan Stark is put to bed, she tells her father she loves him "three thousand".[5][6]
Talking to his wife, Tony Stark tells Potts that he figured out time travel, and does not know what to do. He suggests that he could just stop now, but Potts points out that stopping is not in his nature, and he would not be able to rest knowing he did not help.[5][6]
10th
Hulk, Romanoff, and Rogers set up their first time travel test, using the Quantum Tunnel in Luis' van. Hulk tries to send Scott Lang back in time, but instead pushes backwards time through Lang, ageing him backwards to a 12-year-old. In trying to fix it, he instead ages him to a 93-year-old, then back to a baby, before finally managing to return him to normal.[5][6]
Tony Stark returns to the Avengers Compound, coming across Steve Rogers. He explains that he anticipated what happened to Lang, being the EPR paradox. He says that he wants to help now, but they must also keep what they have found for themselves in the years since the Snap. Tony takes the Captain America shield from his car boot, hand it back to Rogers the way his father once had, reminding him that Howard made it for him, and as a sign of their reconciliation. Rogers graciously accepts it, and says they are working on assembling the team.[5][6]
Hulk and Rocket fly the Benatar to Tønsberg, Norway, where they visit the "New Asgard" establishment the remainder of the Asgardians have set up to build their new lives. On arrival, Valkyrie greets them, but warns Thor will not be welcoming to them and only leaves his hut to get more beer for himself.[5][6]
The duo go to recruit Thor, finding him an obese, unkempt alcoholic, reduced in his depression to simply playing video games with Korg and Miek. They tell him they are working to fix what happened with Thanos, but the reminder upsets Thor, after having failed in 2018. Hulk reminds him that he helped him out of a bad place before and says they need him, eventually convincing him to come with them.[5][6]
Ronin has found a JapaneseYakuza leader, Akihiko, and has tracked him down to his stronghold in Tokyo. On arrival, the now merciless Barton kills every member of the Yakuza present.[5][6]
Barton comes face-to-face with Akihiko and engages him in a sword duel. He slices his gut, then his throat. As Akihiko kneels and begs for his life, Barton runs him through.[5][6]
Barton realizes Natasha Romanoff is behind him and turns to see his friend for the first time in 5 years. She informs him that the Avengers have a plan, and while he is reluctant to let himself have any hope, she takes his hand and convinces him to return with them.[5][6]
Scott Lang dons a newly-developed Advanced Tech Suit to trial time travel again, explaining that with Hank Pym dead, they only have enough Pym Particles for a round trip each and two test runs. He fumbles using one vial, and decides he is not ready. Barton volunteers to go instead.[5][6]
Barton dons the machine, and James Rhodes and Scott Lang ask Hulk why they cannot simply change time by killing a baby Thanos or stealing the Infinity Stones before Thanos can get them. Hulk explains, however, that you cannot just change your own past, and if you travel to the past, that simply puts your former present in your past, helping them to understand why it cannot simply be edited.[5][6]
Barton tests out the Quantum Tunnel for the group and enters the Quantum Realm, with the goal of exiting at his homestead in 2018, before his family was wiped out.[5][6]
Barton arrives back through the tunnel after his visit to 2018, still carrying a baseball mitt he picked up from his homestead. He informs the team that it worked.[5][6]
Steve Rogers and Tony Stark lead a meeting of the Avengers to discuss planning when and where to time travel to so as to retrieve the six Infinity Stones from history. They point out that the Infinity Stones are entwined with their history, so there are not many convenient places. They ask Thor for help regarding information on the Aether, but he has fallen asleep.[5][6]
Thor, now awake, starts to explain the Aether, but gets sidetracked, talking about how Jane Foster ended up picking up the liquid and taking her to Asgard, where she met Frigga. He becomes upset thinking about Frigga's death and breaking up with Foster, before Stark stops him.[5][6]
Nebula warns the Avengers that Thanos retrieved the Soul Stone from Vormir, a "dominion of death", and notes that she knows it is where Thanos murdered her sister.[5][6]
The Avengers contemplate the plan for the Time Heist
Steve Rogers announces to the Avengers that they now have a plan for their Time Heist, with three teams: New York for the Space, Mind, and Time Stones, Asgard for the Reality Stone, and Morag/Vormir for Power and Soul Stones. The team all take a look at the final plan.[5][6]
Tony Stark records a message for his family ahead of the Time Heist, in case something goes wrong.[6] He also prepares a note for Peter Parker, gifting him his E.D.I.T.H. artificial intelligence if he dies.[5][7]
Each wearing an Advanced Tech Suit, the Avengers stride to the new Quantum Tunnel. Steve Rogers gives them a pep talk and tells them to be careful and look each other, with the assurance that they will win, whatever it takes.[5][6]
Hulk prepares the Quantum Tunnel, and Clint Barton is given the shrunken-down Benatar to take with him on the mission, with Rocket making him promise to return it safely.[5][6]
They are split into three groups: Rogers, Stark, Lang, and Hulk for 2012, Thor and Rocket for 2013, and Barton, Romanoff, Rhodes, and Nebula for 2014. Hulk sets off the Quantum Tunnel, and Romanoff jokes, "See you in a minute." The Avengers' helmets go up, and they enter the Quantum Realm.[5][6]
Moments after leaving, the Avengers return, with one exception: Natasha Romanoff, having sacrificed herself for Clint Barton to retrieve the Soul Stone in 2014. Unbeknownst to the others, Nebula is actually the 2014 version still with intense loyalty to Thanos, who intercepted the 2023 Nebula in the past.[5][6]
Tony Stark, Clint Barton, Steve Rogers, Thor, and Hulk grieve Romanoff on a float just outside of the Avengers Compound, as they come to terms with her death. Thor wants to use the Infinity Stones to bring Romanoff back, but Barton explains the everlasting nature the guardian of the stone told them about.[5][6]
Thor asks to be the one to snap his fingers with the Nano Gauntlet, desperate to do something right to make up for his mistakes. Stark tells him he is not in the right state, and Hulk explains that the radiation from the stones is mostly gamma, so given his gamma-based nature and strength, he is the most likely to survive.[5][6]
While the Avengers prepare, the 2014 Nebula, assumed by the others to be the 2023 Nebula they know, goes to execute her plan.[5][6]
Stark reminds Hulk that the only change to be made is to bring everyone who died in the Snap back in present day, without altering anything else about the last 5 years or the present. Banner dons the gauntlet, struggling with the power it surges into him, but coping.[5][6]
Nebula opens the gateway to the 2014 that the Time Heist left behind, allowing Thanos' flagship, the Sanctuary II, to be transported through.[5][6]
Despite significant damage to his right arm, Hulk manages to snap his fingers for the return of all life lost in the Snap in 2018. Stark cools his burned and wizened arm. Meanwhile, Scott Lang walks outside and notices the birds tweeting once again outside, just as Clint Barton's phone rings. Clint is overwhelmed when he finds out that the caller is his wife, and he takes the call from her, overjoyed to hear she is indeed alive once again. Lang tells the others he thinks it really worked.[5][6]
In Louisiana, Monica Rambeau returns in a hospital room, finding it empty. She hears screaming from outside, and goes to look, seeing several people returning. She attempts to ask a doctor for help, but he says they do not have the capacity to help her. Rambeau looks for her mother, who she was expecting to see in the room. Rambeau finds Dr. Highland, who asks Rambeau where she went. Highland tells Rambeau that her mother died three years prior, telling Rambeau about her disappearance in the Snap.[5][8]
At Ana's House, Yelena Belova returns in the bathroom. After confusingly noticing the walls beginning to change around her, she went to the living room, finding a man and a child in it. Ana arrives, explains that both were her husband and son, and tells Belova about her disappearance in the Snap. Belova declines Ana's invitation to do contract killings, and decides to leave to discover about Natasha's whereabouts.[9]
Before the Avengers can appreciate their success, the Sanctuary II suddenly bears down on the facility and fires a barrage of missiles. Lang shrinks down for safety and the facility begins to crumble, the other Avengers falling to the rubble of the foundations below. The facility is destroyed, along with the Quantum Tunnel.[5][6]
Hulk holds up rubble to protect War Machine and Rocket. Rhodes ejects out of his armor and crawls, without the support his mechanical legs provide for his paralysis, to help free Rocket as he struggles to breathe. The area starts to flood.[5][6]
Ant-Man hears Rhodes' calls on comms for help with the flood.[5][6]
Hawkeye struggles through the rubble, before finding the fallen Nano Gauntlet. He hears a noise from behind him and fires a flashlight arrow down the tunnel, illuminating Outriders crawling toward him. He picks up the gauntlet and runs.[5][6]
2014 Nebula reunites with 2014 Thanos, who thanks her. He asks her to find the stones for him, while he waits.[5][6]
2014 Gamora watches from the Sanctuary II, concerned. She turns to 2023 Nebula and asks what happened between them after 2014, and 2023 Nebula explains that despite their fights, they go on to be sisters. Gamora offers to help 2023 Nebula stop Thanos.[5][6]
Iron Man finds Captain America, unconscious in the rubble. He wakes him and gives him back his shield, saying that their messing with time has led to time retaliating.[5][6]
Iron Man and Captain America join Thor, who has been watching Thanos, and tells them the Titan has not moved. They accept that they are walking into a trap, but decide to attack nonetheless. Thor summons lightning, which changes him into armor and braided hair, as he brings both the 2013 Mjølnir and Stormbreaker to his hands.[5][6]
The trio walk to confront Thanos. Thanos thinks over his 2018 self's victory and the fact that people are not grateful for his actions, deciding he must wipe away the universe to be the creator of a new one that does not know loss or what it cost to come into existence. Iron Man, Thor, and Captain America charge him, each attacking together as Thanos fends them off.[5][6]
Rhodes and Rocket panic as the water fills up their underground area. Ant-Man, meanwhile, makes his way to them to help.[5][6]
Hawkeye runs from the Outrider horde through several towers, detonating an explosive arrow behind him to take out some of the aliens. He shoots a wire up a vertical tunnel, using his sword to cut away any aliens that jump after him, and getting to safety.[5][6]
At the top of the tunnel, Hawkeye is greeted by Nebula. Exhausted, he hands her the gauntlet, not knowing she is the 2014 Nebula, who contacts Thanos to say she has acquired the stones. Hawkeye panics, just as Gamora and the 2023 Nebula enter. Gamora holds a blaster to 2014 Nebula as she and 2023 Nebula try to convince her to change, having seen the potential she has to be better. 2014 Nebula forlornly says that Thanos would not let her and goes to blast Gamora, but 2023 Nebula shoots her first, killing her. Hawkeye retrieves the gauntlet.[5][6]
Iron Man has Thor charge him with lightning, like their first encounter in 2012, for a stronger attack on Thanos, but Thanos deflects the blast with his sword. Thor uses Stormbreaker to hit Mjølnir at the Titan, but Thanos uses Iron Man as a shield, the hammer instead knocking Stark out.[5][6]
Captain America attacks Thanos, only to be knocked aside. Thor dives and swings Stormbreaker at him, but Thanos disarms him, before kicking and pummeling him. When Thor tries to summon Stormbreaker, Thanos catches the weapon and starts to push it through Thor's breastplate.[5][6]
Captain America picks up Mjølnir, deemed worthy of wielding the enchanted weapon, and hurls it to knock Thanos off of his friend, before summoning it back to him. Thanos kicks Thor's head into a rock as Rogers attacks him, using the hammer and shield in tandem to knock him down, before summoning lightning with Mjølnir to strike the Titan.[5][6]
As Captain America attacks again, Thanos dodges, before slamming Rogers into the ground and stabbing his leg and punching the hammer from his grip. He proceeds to use his sword to cut pieces from the shield, otherwise indestructible to any Earth-based material. Rogers falls to the ground.[5][6]
Thanos mentions that while his previous conquests have been detached of emotion, he will enjoy annihilating Earth, as he calls forth the full force of his armies, who beam down to the ground. Despite being the only hero left in the way of Thanos and his army, Rogers, still resolute, straps what remains of his shield and walks to confront Thanos, the Black Order, and the hordes of aliens, in defiance.[5][6]
Thanos unleashes his army in response, and the clash of the Battle of Earth begins. Ant-Man punches a Leviathan to the ground, Black Panther fights Outriders, Drax stabs Cull Obsidian, and Stark and Potts fight back-to-back in their respective armors. Thor and Captain America accidentally switch weapons as they fight, and Thor has Rogers give back Stormbreaker, wanting the bigger weapon. Barnes and Rocket shoot their opponents.[5][6]
Cull Obsidian goes to stab Iron Man, but Spider-Man uses webs to restrain him, then Ant-Man steps on him. Parker and Stark reunite, and Stark hugs him, delighted to have him back.[5][6]
Star-Lord fights Sakaarans from Thanos' army. He is almost killed by one, but his attacker is shot in the back. Quill gets up to find the shooter to be Gamora. He is confused, not knowing she is not the Gamora he knew, so when he touches her, she knees and kicks him. She turns to Nebula, incredulous that the man before her is the one her other self fell in love with.[5][6]
Falcon kills a Chitauri Gorilla. Hawkeye runs with the Nano Gauntlet, and Hulk notes that they need to return them to where they came from to get them out of Thanos' reach forever. Stark points out the Quantum Tunnel has been destroyed, but Lang remembers Luis' Van has one. Valkyrie spots the van from above, and Lang and van Dyne go to get the van started.[5][6]
Iron Man goes to see Strange, saying this better be the 1 in 14 million eventuality where things turn out well, though Strange says he cannot confirm it or else it will not be.[5][6]
Lang and van Dyne find the van dead and realize they have to hot-wire it.[5][6]
Corvus Glaive informs Thanos that their Nebula is not responding. Ebony Maw spots Hawkeye running with the Nano Gauntlet and points him out.[5][6]
As Barton struggles transporting the gauntlet, T'Challa asks him to hand it over, remembering Barton's name from the Clash of the Avengers despite claiming not to care at the time. He takes it and runs, weathering the onslaught of attacks with the Panther Habit's kinetic energy absorption, but being knocked over when Thanos throws his sword at him.[5][6]
Before Thanos can go for the gauntlet, Scarlet Witch lands in front of him. She says that he took everything from her. The 2014 Thanos notes he does not know her, but she attacks, telekinetically throwing boulders at him.[5][6]
As Black Panther attempts to retrieve the gauntlet, Ebony Maw magically lifts a rock that it is positioned upon up out of the ground, trying to get it out of his reach. He retrieves it, but struggles, so Spider-Man swings over and takes it, then activating "Instant Kill Mode" to fend off oncoming Outriders.[5][6]
Thanos attempts to push his sword toward Maximoff, but she telekinetically blocks him, then raises him up in the air as she tears his armor from his body. Thanos panics and orders an air strike, despite the risk to his own troops.[5][6]
Wong leads the sorcerers in casting magical shields from the missiles. Meanwhile, missile strikes at the river border cause the start of a flood, and Doctor Strange goes to magically keep it at bay.[5][6]
Parker is overrun by Outriders and calls for help. Captain America throws Mjølnir over his fellow New Yorker, allowing him to web onto it and be carried away. Potts then catches him and throws him up onto Aragorn to fly with Valkyrie. However, Aragorn is struck by a missile and Parker falls to the ground, then struggling for shelter as the missile fire becomes too intense.[5][6]
The Avengers all dive for cover as the missiles rain down. Rocket Raccoon clutches to Groot protectively. However, the firing suddenly stops as the ship's blasters turn upward. F.R.I.D.A.Y. informs Stark that something has entered the upper atmosphere, as Captain Marvel comes down from the sky, having arrived to help, barreling through the Sanctuary II and destroying it, to Thanos' dismay.[5][6]
Lang manages to start up the van Quantum Tunnel.[5][6]
Danvers flies down to Parker so she can protect the gauntlet. He notes that Thanos has a whole army in the way of the van, but with Valkyrie and Aragorn overhead, Maximoff and Okoye catch up with them and note Danvers has help. Potts flies over, Mantis and Shuri walk to join them, Wasp flies over to assist, and Gamora and Nebula get to the group. The women advance as a unit, their joined forces weakening the path for Danvers. Maximoff telekinetically takes down a Leviathan, while Valkyrie flies and cuts through another.[5][6]
Danvers flies through toward the van. Thanos goes to stop her, but Potts, Shuri, and Wasp blast him together to clear her way. Danvers gets past him, but just before reaching the van, Thanos throws his sword into the vehicle, destroying it, with the blast knocking Danvers back and making her drop the gauntlet.[5][6]
The Avengers do all they can to stop Thanos from getting the Nano Gauntlet, but Thanos swats Iron Man aside and manages to headbutt Thor and slam Captain America into the ground. Captain Marvel flies back in, but he swings her off him and dons the gauntlet. Before he can let the power of it sink in, Danvers returns and grabs his hand to keep it open, and when he tries to headbutt her, she is impervious. However, as she starts to overpower him, Thanos removes the Power Stone and uses its raw energy to punch her with a concussive blast.[5][6]
Doctor Strange gestures to Stark that they are in the deciding moments for the one winning outcome, and Stark has a realization. As the Titan replaces the Power Stone and embraces the gauntlet's power again, Stark grabs the gauntlet to try to stop him. Thanos bats him aside and announces himself as inevitable as he goes to finally snap his fingers, but when he does so, he finds the gauntlet ineffective. He is stunned to discover it is empty, and turns to see Stark revealing he has used his nanotech to steal the Infinity Stones. Stark takes on the power of the stones and retorts, "I am Iron Man," before snapping his fingers.[5][6]
As Stark's will dictated when snapping his fingers, Thanos' forces begin to crumble to dust, the way half the population had 5 years prior. Thanos looks upon his defeat in dismay, before sitting down to embrace his end, as he, too, crumbles away, blowing into the wind.[5][6]
His body burned and wrecked, Stark falls to the ground, struggling to breathe. James Rhodes lands by him and caresses his dying friend's face. Peter Parker swings over, trying to talk to Stark and tell him they have won. Stark is unresponsive, and Parker starts to cry. Finally, Pepper Potts arrives, crouching to talk to him. Stark manages to mutter a recognition to her, and after F.R.I.D.A.Y. confirms to Potts that her husband is dying, she assures him that he has saved them, and he can finally rest peacefully. Potts cries herself, holding her hand on Stark's heart as the arc reactor fades, and Tony Stark dies. Captain America and Thor look on mournfully as Potts kisses him one last time.[5][6]
18th
Clint Barton returns home and embraces his family, restored to life.[5][6]
Following the Avengers' victory, Wakanda holds a celebration for the return of many victims of Thanos' Snap, including their royal family. The capital city is aglow with lights, festival music, and people filling the streets with cheer.[5][6]
29th
Before Tony Stark's funeral, Happy Hogan, Pepper Potts, Morgan, James Rhodes, Steve Rogers, and Thor watch a hologram message left by Tony from the day before the Time Heist, recorded in the event that something might go wrong. In it, Tony talks about his hope that the world can be restored to some sense of normality. He ruminates on the incredible expanse of the universe he has come to discover over the years, and says that he feels things will work out as they are supposed to, finishing by reminding Morgan, "I love you 3000."[5][6]
After people begin to disband, Clint Barton stands with Wanda Maximoff by the lake. He tells her he wishes he could let Natasha Romanoff know that they won. Maximoff says she is certain that both Romanoff and her beloved Vision know, wherever they are. The friends embrace to support each other.[5][6]
Happy Hogan sits with Morgan Stark, who tells him she wants cheeseburgers. This moves Hogan, who recalls how much her father had loved them, promising to buy her some.[5][6]
Steve Rogers tells Bucky Barnes that after he returns the Infinity Stones, he plans on returning to the 1940s to live with Peggy Carter. Rogers also tells Barnes that once he returns, he plans to give the legacy of being Captain America to Sam Wilson. Since neither is aware that being a black man as Captain America would come with difficulties, Barnes and Rogers agree that it is a good idea.[14] Rogers gives Barnes his notebook containing a list of of media he used to catch up on modern culture.[15][16]
Inside the ship, Thor starts swiping for destination choices, which aggravates Quill, who insists he is still very much the captain. Thor claims to agree, but continues to take charge. Drax recommends they fight, and the pair start tensely laughing at the situation. Thor assures Quill he is in charge, but gives him a threatening look.[5][6]
Hulk reminds Captain America to return all the Infinity Stones to the moment they were taken so as to clip all their branches. He forlornly tells Rogers he tried with the Infinity Gauntlet to bring back Romanoff, and that he misses her, which Rogers says he does as well.[5][6]
Sam Wilson offers to join Rogers, but Rogers tells him this is up to him. He embraces Barnes, who says he will miss him, knowing what Rogers plans to do. Rogers steps onto the newly built Quantum Tunnel with the stones and Mjølnir. However, he does not return to the tunnel when Hulk tries to bring him back, having traveled back to 1949[17] after his mission and decided to stay there to finally come home from war and spend the rest of his life with Peggy Carter.[5][6]
Barnes and Wilson notice an old man sitting ahead by the lake. Encouraged by Barnes, Wilson approaches him, realizing that he is an elderly Steve Rogers, now biologically 112[17], having lived a full life. Rogers says his life was beautiful, and Wilson says he is happy, but will miss Captain America. Rogers reveals a now intact shield, removing it from its casing and passing it to Wilson. When Wilson notes that it feels like someone else's, Rogers says that it is not. Honored, Wilson thanks his friend and assures him he will do his best, which Rogers tells him is why he chose him. When Wilson notices Rogers has a wedding ring, he enquires about Rogers' wife, but Rogers decides to keep the special life he lived private.[5][6]
31st
Wanda Maximoff goes to S.W.O.R.D.Headquarters and demands to see Vision's body. She pleads with the security guard, saying that Vision and Maximoff deserve for Vision to have a funeral. Tyler Hayward has her let in, and she blasts open the door. She walks through the Headquarters and into Hayward's office. Hayward greets Maximoff and asks to show her something.[5][18]
Hayward shows Maximoff Vision's deconstructed body being worked on, upsetting Maximoff. Maximoff asks what they are dismantling him, referring to him as a weapon. Hayward explains that it is there legal and ethical obligation. Maximoff says that she only wants to bury him, but Hayward calls her claim into question, saying that she has the power to resurrect Vision. Maximoff says that she is not there for that purpose, but Hayward refuses still, offering to let her say goodbye from his office.[5][18]
Security footage of Wanda Maximoff destroying the observatory glass at S.W.O.R.D. HQ
Maximoff says that Vision is all she has, and Hayward says that he is not hers. Enraged, Maximoff breaks the glass from the viewing area and goes down to Vision. S.W.O.R.D. agents point their weapons at her, but Hayward orders them to fall back. Maximoff approaches Vision's head and attempts to reach out to him, but cannot feel him. Upset, Maximoff leaves the facility.[5][18]
Maximoff gets into her car and finds the deed to a poperty she and Vision planned to live on. She drives away.[5][18]
Maximoff arrives in Westview and drives through the town. She passes John Collins, who crosses the street in front of her. She sees Harold Proctor put up an advertisement for piano lessons, and watches Sharon Davis sit at a coffee table. She arrives at the property she and Vision intended to own and pulls into the driveway.[5][18]
Maximoff walks onto the property, seeing bare ground. She looks at her and Vision's deed and breaks down crying, falling to her knees.

Hayward continues to show manipulated footage of Maximoff visiting S.W.O.R.D., claiming that she broke in and stole Vision's corpse and resurrected him. Woo points out that this is a violation of the Sokovia Accords, and Hayward adds that she is violating Vision's living will. Hayward tells everyone to work the problem and dismisses everyone.[5][26]
Woo asks how Maximoff brought Vision back, and Lewis says that she does not know, but Maximoff has the only Vibranium synthezoid in the world pretending to be a sitcom husband, wondering what would happen he learns the truth.[5][26]
In the Vision Residence, Billy and Tommy Maximoff try to clean a dog they found, hoping to convince Wanda Maximoff to let them keep him. Wanda comes as the boys hide the dog, but the dog quickly reveals himself. Billy asks if they can keep him, and Wanda notices that there is no collar. Wanda says that taking care of a dog is a big responsibility but gets caught up in the dog's cuteness.[5][26]
Vision comes in and greets his family, asking who the dog is. Wanda asks why Vision is in his human form, and he says that he suspected "Agnes" would visit, which she does, carrying a dog house, which Vision finds suspicious.

The dog causes an electrical outlet to spark, so "Agnes" suggests Sparky, and the family agrees as Wanda uses her magic to make a collar appear.[5][26]
Vision asks why she would use her powers with "Agnes" present, but Wanda points out that she did not notice. She says that she is tired of hiding her powers, suggesting that he does not. Vision says that they are usually in agreement, asking what Maximoff is hiding from him. Billy asks if Sparky is their dog, and Wanda says that they would not be old enough to care for an animal until they are ten years old. The twins smile at each other and rapidly age themselves to ten years old. "Agnes" suggests they hope their dog remains the same size.[5][26]
In the S.W.O.R.D. Response Base, Woo brings Lewis and Rambeau coffee. Rambeau suggests a way to re-enter Westview using a fallout shelter on wheels. Lewis responds that her plan should work theoretically as Woo rejoins and Lewis catches him up on the sitcom. Rambeau says that she knows an aerospace engineer who could make her shelter, but Lewis says that there is no guaranteed she would get brainwashed by the Hex, Lewis' name for the anomaly.[5][26]
Woo asks if Billy and Tommy had been identified, but Rambeau explains that everything happening in Westview is real, including the twins being Wanda Maximoff's kids. Woo suggests that this would require more power than she had ever shown, but Rambeau brings up her display in the final fight against Thanos, arguing that only she came close to taking out Thanos. Woo suggests that Captain Marvel came close, giving Rambeau pause as Lewis asks for confirmation that her powers also came from an Infinity Stone. Rambeau changes the topic, noticing a picture of a S.W.O.R.D. Drone changed into a helicopter, asking where the lab is.[5][26]
Rambeau, Woo, and Lewis go to the lab and find the clothes she wore inside the Hex. Lewis asks if they are being mind controlled to see the clothes, and Rambeau assures them it is real. She grabs Woo’s gun and shoots the outfit, leaving it unscathed. Woo remembers that Rambeau was wearing a bulletproof vest when she went into the Hex.

Maximoff attempts to ask if they can just watch TV, but Vision suggests it is so that she can change everything. Vision says that she cannot control him the same way she controls them, although Maximoff insinuates that she can and attempts to end the argument by having the credits role on the broadcast.[5][26]
Vision refuses to let the conversation ends and asks what the Maximoff Anomaly is, saying that he believes that she only recently became aware of what she was doing in Westview. Maximoff denies knowledge of what he means, and the credits are forced to end as Vision tells her that "Norm" cannot reach his family. Maximoff continues to deny knowledge as the two start flying, and Maximoff said that everything she is doing is for them, offering to handle it.[5][26]
Vision asks what is outside of Westview, and Maximoff says that he does not want to know. Vision becomes upset, and Maximoff says that he had never spoken to her that way before.

She taunts Wanda Maximoff for believing Harkness' trick.[5][18]
Harkness goes on to explain that when she sensed Maximoff's spell, she was confused. She finds a bug and takes control of this mind, expressing that Maximoff's ability to perform the spell on an entire town and have them follow complex storylines was special. She turns the bug into a bird, and says that it took her years of study. She explains how powerful Maximoff's magic over Westview is to create such detailed illusions across the whole town. She asks what Maximoff's secret is and feeds the bug to Señor Scratchy.[5][18]
Harkness asks Maximoff how she did it, but Maximoff denies being responsible. Harkness throws her against a wall and enchants Maximoff's mind, opening a door to Maximoff's past. Maximoff refuses to enter, but Harkness threatens her children, allowing Maximoff to hear them calling after her. Maximoff and Harkness enter the door and watch Maximoff's parents die.

Woo threatens to have the FBI present, and Hayward has him thrown out. Woo breaks out of his handcuffs and calls Cliff, asking him to send the FBI.[5][12]
Maximoff arrives in the Westview town square and passes by the people she enthralled.

Maximoff insists that she is not who Harkness claims, so Harkness releases Sarah Proctor from Maximoff's control. Proctor approaches Maximoff and begs Maximoff to include her daughter in the show so that she could leave her room. Maximoff insists that Harkness is forcing Proctor to speak, but Harkness says that she simply freed Proctor. Harkness frees several other Westview residents, all of whom approach Maximoff, surrounding her while Harkness chants.[5][12]
"Pietro Maximoff" makes a smoothie and tells Rambeau about the room where they are, a place where he relaxes.

↑ 2.02.12.22.32.4In What We're Fighting For, flashbacks are shown of Leo Fitz and Jemma Simmons' life following their move to Theta Serpentis on July 4, 2019 (see 2019 references). They spent 4 years together, suggesting they jumped back in time around July 2023. It can be taken as a specific 4 years, so roughly July 4, 2023, or a more general "2023 - 2019 = 4", so any time in 2023 (approximating with mid-year). Putting more weight on the more specific, it can be approximated to July 3, 2023. This is suitable, given Leo and Simmons have been celebrating Alya's birthday, and if they have traveled a near exact number of years, this means Alya's birthday aligns closely with the date on which she becomes a year older, simplifying her birthday. Harlow Happy Hexum was 4 years and 10 months old during filming, suggesting Alya is around 4 in the 2023 and returned-to-2019 scenes, and 5 in the following 2020 epilogue scene. However, Alya was conceived no earlier than July 2019, meaning she was born no earlier than early 2020, thus maximum 3. So, for her to be as close as realistically possible to 4, she should indeed be born in early/mid-2020. On average, a pregnant woman finds out they are pregnant about 245 days before birth. In Brand New Day, a flashback is shown to just after Simmons has found out she is pregnant, and is implied to have been a while after they began their work. Assuming it is at least 3 months, but taking it as no more than 3 months due to wanting to maximize Alya's age, that scene may be approximated to October 4, 2019, and thus Simmons finding out her pregnancy around October 1, 2019, finally therefore meaning Alya was born around early June 2020 (roughly June 2nd). This is suitable, as in What We're Fighting For it is seemingly implied in July that her birthday has been in recent month. It can be assumed that Fitz starting to study the Time Stream is July 5, 2019, and then the scenes of the montage shown between then and the scene approximated to October 4, 2019 can be evenly distributed to July 23rd, August 10th, August 29th, and September 16th. At some point between July 5, 2019 and July 3, 2023 during the studying of the Time Stream, Fitz finds out about Kora's importance and the team being together for the final time in the speakeasy. This may be approximated to the midpoint, July 2021. Simmons appears to be about a month from birth when Leo makes her the tea, so roughly May 2, 2020. Alya appears to be about 4 months old as the family watch a film, suggesting it is around October 2-November 1, 2020, so October 17, 2020. She is about the same age when they look at the stars together as when they time travel back to 2019, so this can be taken to be shortly before in 2023 - around a week prior, so June 26, 2023.
↑Jon Watts confirmed Fury switched with Talos some time after Tony Stark's funeral in Avengers: Endgame, making the funeral on October 29, 2023 (see other references), the earliest he could have left. In The Series Finale, a Skrull says to Monica Rambeau on November 10, 2023 (see other references) that Fury had heard about Rambeau getting grounded, and thus sent the Skrull to recruit Rambeau, implying that Fury was in space the day Rambeau was grounded on November 5, 2023 (see other references). This makes November 5, 2023 the latest Fury could have left. In Spider-Man: No Way Home, Albert Cleary says that "Nick Fury has been off-planet for a year" in July 2024 (see 2024 references). While ideally this would place Fury leaving in July 2023, this is impossible, since this is before Stark's funeral. It can therefore be taken that Fury left the day of Stark's funeral, October 29, 2023.
↑In New World Order, a loan officer explains that the Blip, dated to October 17, 2023 (see other references), prompted the bank to tighten their rules regarding loans. This was a reaction to the Blip, so would likely have happened within the first month, so some time between October 17 and November 17, 2023. The middle of these dates, November 1, 2023, can therefore be taken to be when the rules were put in place.
↑In The Series Finale, a Skrull says that Nick Fury sent her after he heard about Monica Rambeau being grounded. This would have happened between Rambeau getting grounded on November 5, 2023 and the Skrull meeting with her on November 10, 2023 (see other references). This can therefore be taken to have happened on November 7, 2023.
↑In Power Broker, Lennox says "Six months ago, would you have imagined people supporting the cause like this?" when referring to the formation of the Flag Smashers. He says this on the reasoned date of May 3, 2024 (see 2024 references), meaning the Flag Smashers would have formed in November 2023. A weighted calculation places the group's formation on November 7, 2023.
↑In The Whole World Is Watching, a teacher says that he requested more supplies and teachers "six months ago" on May 7, 2024 (see 2024 references). This could mean exactly six months prior, so November 7, 2023, or within the six months before, so in November 2023. A weighted calculation places the request on November 9, 2023.
