Charlotte Doyle is Taken Down

Las Vegas.

Charlotte's group of four came out of the restaurant, and Tsunade said admiringly, "Pepper, the food here really is good."

Tony laughed. "Since you like it, why not have Charlotte hire the chef back? Then you can eat the food here at home too."

Charlotte looked at Tsunade, but Tsunade shook her head.

"That isn't necessary. When the time comes, we can just arrange for our head chef to come over and learn the methods and recipes."

"Good food shouldn't be enjoyed alone. It should be shared with others too."

Hearing Tsunade's words, Tony smiled and said to Pepper Potts:

"That's a good suggestion. We can learn from it too."

Pepper Potts, beside him, nodded as well. When the time came, they could simply buy the recipes.

Tony looked at Charlotte and said, "It's still early. Let's find somewhere to have a drink."

"I know a place. Their owner has some treasured bottles, and it's worth a visit."

Hearing that there was fine liquor even Tony considered worth treasuring, Charlotte also grew interested.

"Then let's go taste it together."

Elsewhere.

On the Helicarrier.

Skye knocked on the door to Coulson's office, walked in, and said:

"I just came to let you know she's still at the hotel, so..."

"That's as far as we've gotten for now."

Seeing that Coulson did not speak, Skye took two steps forward and continued, "It's been a really messy day, hasn't it?"

"We're like we're trapped in a truck-shaped candy jar."

Coulson looked at Skye and said in a somewhat low voice, "That really shouldn't have happened."

"It's fine."

"Not nearly as scary as watching Mom and Dad argue downstairs."

Hearing Skye's comparison, Coulson said, "That shouldn't happen either."

Then he leaned back, looked at Skye, and said, "Regret joining us?"
