(THANOS GROANING)

Oh, no.

(GROANS)

Where are they?

(GROANING) Answer the question.

The universe required correction.

After that, the stones served no purpose...

beyond temptation.

You murdered trillions!

You should be grateful. (BANNER GRUNTS)

Where are the stones?

Gone.

Reduced to atoms.

You used them two days ago!

I used the stones to destroy the stones.

It nearly killed me.

But the work is done.

It always will be.

I am inevitable.

We have to tear this place apart. He has to be lying!

NEBULA: My father is many things.

A liar is not one of them.

Ah.

Thank you, daughter.

Perhaps I treated you too harshly.

(GRUNTS)

BANNER: What?

What did you do?

I went for the head.
