Surprise muse swept in, took a seat and told me it was time, who am I to argue?

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.

Possibly aware of more than that, Agents Romanoff and Carter both know you anyway.

[ Peggy? Okay, that one takes him a little off-guard, but he recovers quickly. ]

Yes, sir. I know them both.

My point is the danger may not just be to you. Anyone who reports in can just as quickly vanish. I've seen it happen.

[Make that two Agent Carters if you want to get technical.]

I thought you might.

Well I guess the fact that I don't leave my team behind might be something of an asset then.
