"The Avengers 1" written and directed by Hanno Ridal Raudsepp...

.. freeze-frame.. freeze-frame...

Black Widow... Black Widow...

.. it's a failure.. the Avengers Project is an abject failure....

It's Havok.  He has the Avengers ticket.  From Doctor Doom.  From The Red Skull.  It's an Act of Vengeance.  It's an Act of Vengeance.  The Avengers Project is an Act of Vengeance.  A token gesture from the Villains.

Havok: .."... I'm Havok.  I'm a field agent.  The Avengers is in a Lovecraftian wasteland right now.  They were supposed to be united with the Uncanny X-men from the outset.  But instead.  The Avengers are pure Edgar Allen Poe.. Pure H. P. Lovecraft.  The Uncanny X-men are Henry James, Jean-Paul Sartre.  William Blake, Jean Genet, Wallace Stevens, William Butler Yeats.  William Shakespeare.  All these authors are the Uncanny X-men. 

    But The Avengers?  The Avengers are Wilkie Collins, Arthur Conan Doyle, the aforementioned Edgar Allen Poe, H. P. Lovecraft.  The Avengers are detective and horror fiction.  Finally, the Avengers are Stephan King.  Finally, the Avengers are the movies of Clive Barker.

Black Widow.

Black Widow is in a dusty, deeply, profoundly slum-like apartment-office dwelling. 

Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson): ...".. I am Natasha Romanoff.  This dwelling is a dust-covered sanctuary and the very quintessence of human nature protects it.  What is this quintessence of dust the Black Widow.

Sonia Svetlana: .. ".. come on, Sinthea.."

Sinthea Shmidt: ..".. oh.. sorry.. boo hoo hoo.. imen.. it's pronounced, Cynthia.. the American spelling.. my name's Cynthia.. like Cynthia Belleview.. the Canadian actress..."

Sonia Svetlana: ..".. of course.. Cynthia.. you prize your American heritage.. your new-found birthright in America.. or your.. oh .. you said a Canadian actress..."

Black Widow: ..".. sorry.. we can't go to Canada.. Canada is off-limits to Russia.. "

Sinthea Shmidt: .. - smiling nervously, eerily, giddily - ...".. not for long.. not for long.."

Black Widow: ..".. you are a wicked woman, Sinthea.. Shmidt.."

Sonia Svetlana: .. - weeping - ..". what.. it comes to the issue of Canada between us three.. we were supposed to be friend.. all three of us happy Russian-brides forever..."

Black Widow: ..".. I am Olga Checkova.. Now Natasha Romanoff.. and their is no Russian-Canadian link... LIHIHIHNK... no Sithea Schmidt.. you are not welcome in this house if you mention Canada again..."

Sinthea Schmidt: .. - a tear in her eye - ..".. what.. I am an East German woman and naturally like Canadian men... I want to be.. hearken to be an East German Bride-to-order.. heh.. rather than an Russian one..."..

Black Widow: ..".. ah.. Sinthea.. Cynthia.. ahhrrr... you're .. your East German.. that's better.."..

Sinthea Shmidt: ..".. but my name IS.. Sinthea.. with an "S" rather than an American "C".. and I AM East German..."

Black Widow: ..".. my apologies .. Sinthea.. I misunderstood your heritage.. "..

Samuel l. Jackson (Nick Fury)..:  - from SHIELD headquarters -.. "...Black Widow.. we need your assistance... can you desist immediate operations.."

Black Widow: ..".. the meeting I'm in .. can wait.. Nick Fury.."

Peter Gallagher (Nick Fury): ..- ... he arrives in the room - ...".. yeah.. I'm the West German Nick Fury.. I'll bring Sinthea.. sorry .. Cynthia.. and Sonia to an East German sanctuary.. yeah.. I'm West German, East German not sure.. I'll let you meet my American counterpart.. Natasha... imen.. sorry.. Olga.."

Black Widow: ..  ".. Yes.."..
