Jarvis, music. [music is magically turned down to sane levels]

... you coming in or?

. . .

The hell is this?

It's a workshop.

No friggin' way! It's like a toy box!

Watch it.

[the clawbot is poking at Bucky's feet with its broom]

[stares down at it, wide-eyed.]

Slick, put that broom where you found it and get our guest some water.

[and the bot rolls off to a corner]

... robot. Don't mind him, he doesn't set things on fire anymore.

Holy shit.

[there's also what looks like a robot body on a display case, it's all wires and very clearly unfinished]

So, you've accepted which century you're in?

Maybe. Feels more like a dream.

Here, play with this.

[pushes a button on his table and 3D square pops up. It's blueee]

[just. stares at it.]

. . .

[pokes the square, it moves]

You can't "touch" it but there are sensors, so it's almost like touching it.

What the hell . . .

[pokes at it tentatively.]

[it flips. Tony reaches over with both hands and turns the square into a cube]

I think it's pretty intuitive, but if you have trouble Jarvis— [DEEP SIGH] the voice on the ceiling will help you out.

I . . .

Goddamn . . .

[and the robot comes back holding a bottle of water]

[takes it, still wide-eyed.]

His name's Slick and he's a bit like a dumb puppy.

He's a robot . . .

Yeah, a smart robot.

. . .

[quietly downs the water.]

You okay?

Yeah, I . . . Yeah . . .
