Pier 39 is one of the many piers located in Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco, California, as well as a popular tourism center.
History[]
Chase for the Mobile Laboratory[]
In May 2018, Scott Lang, Hope van Dyne, and Luis engaged in a car chase to retrieve the Mobile Laboratory from Sonny Burch. Burch escaped into Pier 39 and boarded a whale watching boat. Lang used his Pym Particles to become in giant form and asked a group of tourists if they had seen him. He then saw Burch on the boat leaving the pier.
Shrinking down, Lang attempted to call several flying ants, but they were eaten by nearby seagulls. Eventually, one of the ants got past the birds and flew Lang off of the pier, an act for which he then named it Ant-tonio Banderas, though it was later eaten by another seagull.
As Lang fell into the water, he grew to a size much greater than any increase seen before. He took the lab from Burch, and eventually made it back to the pier, although he fell and fainted in the water from air deprivation before he could shrink to normal size.
Van Dyne, who had just arrived at the pier, then jumped into the water. Seeing that Lang's suit was malfunctioning, she manually shrunk him to ant size, carried him to land, and brought him back to normal size. At the same time, Ava Starr took the lab and remote from Luis and enlarged it, causing much destruction to the Pier.[1]
