Synopsis
Phil Coulson stops a gas station robbery on his way to New Mexico.
Plot
Agent Phil Coulson leaves Tony Stark's lab in Malibu to investigate a situation in New Mexico. Coulson stops at a Roxxon Gas Station to fill up his car and, as he tries to decide between which donuts to buy, two armed robbers enter the shop and hold the night clerk at gun point telling her to empty the cash register. Coulson reveals himself to the criminals and feigns stupidity, offering to surrender his pistol. However, he tricks them into allowing him to slide it over through the next aisle, and while they are distracted, the agent takes them both down. Agent Coulson then casually pays for his donuts and leaves the night clerk staring in awe and recommends that she inform the police that she was the one who subdued the thieves.

Trivia
- According to Eric Pearson in an interview for Marvel Studios: Assembling a Universe, the action scene in this short film took up 80% of the budget for the first two One-Shots leaving only enough money for two people talking, forcing Pearson to come up with the idea for The Consultant.
- The title of the One-Shot is a reference to the musical A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum and its film adaptation.
- So far, this One-Shot is the only live-action product from the Marvel Cinematic Universe not to portray any character derived from the Marvel Comics.
Music
- Music was composed by Paul Oakenfold
