Quinjet No POV
Phil, Bobbi, Janet, Hank, and Steve were inside with Hank and Steve looking at the digital files of the other candidates as Janet was chatting with Bobbi. Hank was fascinated with Steve about surviving in the ice for 70 years.
Pilot; we're about 40 minutes out from home base, sir.
Phil took off a headset and walked to Steve and Hank.
Steve; so, this Dr Banner was trying to replicate the serum they used on me?
Phil: a lot of people were. You were the world's first superhero. Banner thought gamma radiation might hold the key to unlocking Erskine's original formula.
Steve: didn't really go his way, did it?
Phil; not so much. When he's not that thing, though, the guy's like a Stephen Hawking.
Steve: <looks at him>
Phil; he's like a smart person.
Steve: <nods>
Hank; there has been various tries. None like you of course but some incidents made people special.
Steve: what about you?
Hank: I discovered subatomic particles that allow for size alteration and mass manipulation. I named them Pym Particles, I need a suit to help me operate them. I even invented a helmet that allows me to communicate with insects.
Steve; really? Like talk to them and they talk back?
Hank; yes. It's more complex and all.
Steve: what about her?
Hank: Janet... a lab incident gave her the powers she has. She can shrink and shot energy stingers and when she is small she can fly as well. I had to stabilize her but it was all my fault she got those powers.
Janet: and I have to keep telling him it was a happy accident.
Hank: Janet...
Janet: oh come on, I love my powers. I always wanted to be superhero! Me!
Hank: she is also a fashion designer, having a very popular line.
Janet; that funds his lab.
Steve: oh I see. So you're...
Janet: married, yes. Happily so. Even if he can bore me with science talk.
Hank; it's not boring!
Janet; oh come on, it's a bunch of words I don't understand!
Phil let Cap near the cockpit.
Phil: married couple. I gotta say, it's an honor to meet you officially. I've sort of met you. I mean, I watched you while you were sleeping.
Steve: <looks uncomfortable>
Bobbi: wrong thing to say...
Phil; I mean, I was present while you were unconscious from the ice. You know, it's really just a huge honor to have you on board this...
Steve: I hope I'm the man for the job.
Phil: oh. You are. Absolutely. We made some modifications to the uniform. I had a little design input.
Steve: the uniform? Aren't the Stars and Stripes a little old-fashioned?
Phil: with everything that's happening, and the things that are about to come to light, people might just need a little old-fashioned.
Bobbi; also your uniform looks like your original one. The one you used before you went into the front lines.
Steve: oh.
