I am not starting this out 'with all due respect,' because frankly you haven’t earned that yet. It’s not an insult, it’s a fact. I work in facts.

Fact is it’s my job, my responsibility to lead these people, to direct them as a unit. I’m not sure you are capable of bringing that to the table, and there is zero percent margin for error here. You screw this up and there’s a lot more than just embarrassment. You hear me? Am I being clear enough?

I catch even a whiff of this going south and I pull the plug myself, understand?

Good.

Now get me Hill or Coulson, I need a run down on things and I need it three days ago.

Ooooh, I love the smell of authority in the morning.

It's three in the afternoon.

...it's always five o'clock somewhere?

Still wrong.

[Jesus, what reality does he have to go to to not run into you, Wilson?]

I think you have me confused with someone who tolerates your particular brand of crazy.

[Um. None of them. Sorry. Except not really.]

And I think you keep a laser cannon under that eyepatch. But there are some things in this universe we may never know.

OH. Speaking of laser cannons. You get my latest equipment request yet?

[It's only sad because the fact that you can't be killed makes yo so damned valuable.]

If I do, you'll be the first to know.

I believe there is a delivery on it's way up from R&D this afternoon actually. But I don't recall seeing paperwork stating you've got clearance to gear up with it.

[Which really doesn't give him any incentive to curb the ridiculous, since he knows you'll never get rid of him.]

Aww, but c'mon, I'm the one who ASKED for it! How is that fair.

Can't I at least test it? Just to make sure it works? I promise I won't kill anybody this time. ...probably.

[If he could though....if he could.]

I'm sorry, were you harboring some sort of delusion that life is fair? You know among all your other delusions.

You want to be part of this organization you have to play by our rules, and rules state you do the paperwork.

I did do the paperwork. I asked for a Hello Kitty laser cannon, a box of confetti, a hula hoop, and a couple boxes of non-flammable targets. Filled out the actual form and everything. I'm not sure how much more paperwork you wanted for that.

...

I believe the requisition was denied based on SHIELD tech refusal to use pink, and copy rights. Just sign off on the weapons when they are delivered.

Get outta my sight.

[Sloppy salute is a go.]

Yessir, Mister Director Sir! You're the best director, sir. Don't let anybody tell you otherwise.

[They need him right? They legitimately need him as an Agent and his particular qualities advance their objectives.

Dear god urge to shoot rising...]

They don't Wilson, no body does.
