Well isn't this just a fine fucking day. Finishing Tony's new arc reactor in the nick of time... so they can crash the damn Expo. To deal with actual supervillainy. Sure. Okay. Getting stuck dealing with Potts and Happy Meal and that damn liar. Well at least the latter two take off to do... something. Scaring the shit out of Hammer is a delight, though. Caroline could happily do that all day. Maybe break a couple nonessential bones. You know.
Potts looks like she's not sure whether to be viciously amused or terrified. Caroline's okay with either. Or both. Both is good. Watching Hammer get dragged off by the cops is a goddamn delight. Four for you, Potts. Caroline might almost completely forgive her, just for that. Too bad being in Potts's semi-good graces lasts all of a few minutes, because it becomes readily apparent that they need to evacuate due to, oh, evil robots. (You know. No big deal. Just some evil robots.) Potts wants to stay until everyone else leaves but Caroline's having none of that. This isn't a damn ship. No one's going down with the Expo. It takes dragging, yelling, and threats of actual violence to get her into the damn car. Caroline's almost disappointed she doesn't actually get to shove Pepper Potts in the trunk of a car. Oh well. Maybe next crisis.
...Wait, she's still due to be fired. Shit. Anyway. One montage full of maniac stunt driving later, they're pulling back up to the Expo. Now that the robots aren't going to explode. Since that was a fucking thing apparently. Caroline tries not to look to smug when Pepper goes kind of grey in the face at that. Now it's time to... uh. Pick up the pieces, she supposes. Mostly Caroline wants to know if Tony's all right.
