Maria Hill: Thor, what's his play?
Thor: He has an army, called the Chitauri. They're not of Asgard or any world known. He means to lead them against your people. They will win him the Earth. In return, I suspect, for the Tesseract.
Maria Hill: An army. From outer space.
Natasha Romanoff: So he's building another portal. That's what he needs Erik Selvig for.
Thor: Selvig?
Natasha Romanoff: He's an astrophysicist.
Thor: He's a friend.
Natasha Romanoff: Loki has them under some kind of spell. Along with one of ours.
Maria Hill: I wanna know why Loki let us take him. He's not leading an army from here.
Bruce Banner: I don't think we should be focusing on Loki. That guy's brain is a bag full of cats. You can smell crazy on him.
Thor: Take care how you speak. Loki is beyond reason, but he is of Asgard. And he is my brother.
Natasha Romanoff: He killed eighty people in two days.
Thor: ...He's adopted.

[Fury is visiting an imprisoned Loki]Nick Fury: In case it's unclear, if you try to escape, you so much as scratch that glass... [Fury hits a button on the machine and opens metal iris panels around the chamber]
Nick Fury: ...it's 30,000 feet straight down in a steel trap. You get how that works? Ant... boot.
Loki: It's an impressive cage. Not built, I think, for me.
Nick Fury: Built for something a lot stronger than you.
Loki: Oh, I've heard. The mindless beast, makes play he's still a man. How desperate are you, that you call on such lost creatures to defend you?
Nick Fury: How desperate am I? You threaten my world with war. You steal a force you can't hope to control. You talk about peace and you kill 'cause it's fun. You have made me VERY desperate. You might not be glad that you did.
Loki: Ooh. It burns you to have come so close. To have the Tesseract, to have power, unlimited power. And for what? A warm light for all mankind to share. And then to be reminded what real power is.
Nick Fury: [walks away]Well, let me know if real power wants a magazine or something.

Nick Fury: These were in Phil Coulson's jacket. I guess he never did get you to sign them. [Throws bloodstained Captain America trading cards on the table. Rogers picks up one of them]
Nick Fury: We're dead in the air up here. Our communications, the location of the Cube, Banner, Thor... I got nothing for you. I lost my one good eye. Maybe I had that coming. [Walks toward Rogers]
Nick Fury: Yes. We were going to build an arsenal with the Tesseract. I never put all my chips on that number, though, because I was playing something even riskier. [pauses]
Nick Fury: There was an idea, Stark knows this, called the Avengers Initiative. The idea was to bring together a group of of remarkable people to see if they could become something more. To see if they could work together when we needed them to, to fight the battles that we never could. [Looks at Stark]
Nick Fury: Phil Coulson died, still believing in that idea. In heroes. [Stark suddenly gets up and leaves the bridge]
Nick Fury: Well, it's a good old-fashioned notion.
