Your watching spiderman far from home. The after credits scene has finished and people are just starting to leave. The lights go back down and the screen lights up. Everyone stops.
The screen shows an apartment and a blonde getting out of bed in overwashed purple boxers. He has messy stubble that matches his disaster of a bedroom. He throws on an old grey hoodie and goes to the kitchen to start the coffee machine.
He was Hawkeye, now he’s just the neighbour people warn their kids about. He downs coffee straight from the pot and checks the mail. There’s the usual overdue bills,
divorce papersand a large grey package. He opens it to discover a plastic case the entire front filled with a loud font. “a dummies guide to Budapest”.Great which idiots idea of a sick joke is this.
He opens the case and discovers its an audioguide. Throwing the CD on he continues to drink from the coffee pot not a clean mug in sight. The CD begins filling the apartment with classical music. It ends abruptly.
A familiar woman’s voice starts “Some cities are women and must be loved; others are men and can only be admired or bargained with. Budapest? Well like me Budapest was dead, to begin with.“ Clint chokes on his coffee.
Scrambling to stop the CD he manages to reach for the plastic case. The CD stops and he examines the case. There’s a postcard from Budapest. He turns it over to find the words “Did you miss me?” written in a swirling calligraphy that can only belong to one person. He pales before laughing as he sees a silver arrow necklace taped to the bottom. “you little-” he begins but the footage cuts before he can cuss her out.
Its replaced with the words “Natasha Romanoff will return in” and the black widow movie logo. Toxic by Britney Spears is playing. The audience erupts. Somewhere in the distance, Joss Wheldon is crying.
