" ...hold your fire."
Barton releases the trigger, pulls up.
HAMMER CONTAINMENT CUBE 84L
Coulson watches Thor with anticipation as Thor wraps his hand around the hammer. He smiles, triumphant, lifts... but the hammer doesn't move. Thor looks confused, tries again with two hands, to no avail -- anger and frustration overtaking him. He strains with all his might, SCREAMS from the effort, bellowing up at the storm and lightning above him.
Something begins to appear on the side of Mjolnir -- glowing RUNES. Thor looks down, sees them. But, still, the hammer doesn't budge. Thor falls to his knees before it, rain pouring down around him, as the glowing runes fade away. He's failed. Unworthy.Coulson looks on, disappointed.
SHIELD AGENTS move in, guns trained on Thor, surrounding him. Coulson activates his radio.
"Ground units, move in. Show's over."
As the Agents surround him, Thor doesn't seem to notice or care. He just sits there on his knees, head bowed in the rain -- a man broken, lost. From overhead, Kenichi sees the hammer in the cube containment
room then he looks up as the Guards approach Thor, then continue to climb, until we see the whole camp -- and the extensive damage Thor's done to it during the melee.
Jane lowers her binoculars, sensing things have gone from bad to worse. She steels herself, then starts over the ridge to help him. Almost immediately, a SPOTLIGHT sweeps past her. She hears the sound of DOGS and SHIELD AGENTS approaching, sees the glow of flashlights moving from the base towards her. With no other choice, she makes a quick retreat.
Jane stands with Selvig and Darcy in the empty lab. Darcy picks up the book Selvig checked out of the library, looks through it.
"I can't just leave him there." Jane said
"Why not?" asked Selvig
"You didn't see what happened." Jane stated
Darcy points at an illustration of Thor's hammer in the book.
"Hey! Myeu-muh!"
Jane looks at the illustration in the book, turns to Selvig knowingly.
"Where did you find this?" Jane asked Slevig
Selvig grabs the book from them, quickly closes it.
"In the children's section. I wanted to show you how ridiculous his story was. Kenichi was just playing along with him to get information but because of you now even he might be in danger" Selvig stated
Jane felt guilty for putting Kenichi in danger but she still remained unconvinced by this. She knows he wants to believe.
"Those SHIELD guys looks liked they were afraid of Kenichi I am pretty sure he would be okay. And Aren't you the one who's always told me to chase down all leads, all possibilities?" Jane
"I was talking about science, not magic!" Selvig stated accepting the fact that Kenichi would be okay due to how that Agent Coulson was treating him.
"Magic's just science we don't understand yet. Arthur C. Clarke." Jane quotes
"Who wrote science fiction." Selvig counters
"The precursor of science fact." Jane stated
"In some cases." Slevig said
"If that's really an Einstein-Rosen Bridge out there, then there's something on the other side.Advanced beings could have come through it before." Jane stated
"Jane..."
"Hey that's what Kenichi said to me. A primitive culture like the Vikings might have worshipped them as deities." Darcy added
They give her a look, surprised by her unexpectedly insightful input. Darcy shrugs. Jane points at her, grateful for the support.
"When did Kenichi said that?" asked Selvig
"This morning, I think he stopped talking with Thor when he Loli his little brother instead his uncle" Darcy stated remembering their talk this morning then looked at Jane and added "Didn't you hear it too."
"It's not necessary that what we have are so facts. Maybe he really was little brother but lies to become Thor's uncle." Jane said
"Jane, if you do this, you'll find yourself in a situation that I won't be able to get you out of this time." Selvig stated
"I'll help you." Darcy said
Jane looks grateful. Selvig looks at her, sees there's no stopping her. He sighs.
SHIELD HOLDING CELL - NIGHT
Thor sits in a chair, staring forward blankly, hands cuffed behind him. Coulson stands across from him.
"It's not easy to do what you did. You made us all look like a bunch of mall cops. That's hurtful. The men you so easily subdued are
highly-trained professionals, and in my experience, it takes someone who's received similar training to do what you did to them. Would you like to tell me where you received your training?" Coulson asked
But Thor sits silently.
"Pakistan? Chechnya? Afghanistan? Then again, you strike me more as the soldier of fortune type. What was it, South Africa?"
Still no answer. Coulson leans in close to him.
"Certain groups pay well for a good mercenary. Especially HYDRA." Coulson waits for a response, but gets none.
"Who are you?" He asks
"Just a man" Thor answers
"One way or another, we find out what we want to know. We're good at that." After saying his piece Coulson leaves the room. Thor lowers his head.

Kenichi was standing beside Hawkeye and asked him, "Did you try to lift that Hammer?"
"Me! No" Barton replied
"Why? I thought you would atleast try were you scared of getting radiation or something?" Kenichi teased him.
"I am not really a hammer guy so?" Barton shrugged his shoulders.
"Not really a hammer guy? Dude do you even know what type of hammer it is?" Kenichi asked
"Do you know something about it?" Coulson asked as he walked towards the duo.
"Maybe" Kenichi shrugged his shoulders with a smile as he looked at Coulson and Hawkeye wating for his answers "But why should I tell you?"
"Huh! You really are a bastard?" Barton said
"Not bigger than you" Kenichi said with a smile.
"Did the guy give you anything?" Barton asked Coulson while ignoring Kenichi
"Nothing for now but it won't be for long." Coulson said
"Yeah about that I am sorry Coulson" Kenichi said
"Why sorry? Do you know him?" asked Coulson
"Yeah" Kenichi said, "Two months ago that guy couldn't even throw a punch and asked me to train him, I never thought he would use my teachings like that."
"What the fuck?" Barton cursed out.
"Are you saying that you taught him for two months and he became such a strong fighter." Coulson asked suspiciously.
"Hey that guy is talented fighter and I am really good teacher you know moreover your agents weren't that strong to begin with seriously they were beaten by a guy with just 2 months of training"
