Minute One Hundred Twelve: From This All Seeming Horrible to An Important Lesson in ‘Duck and Cover’
Eric Deutsch, co-host from Flash Gordon Minute and Escape From New York Minute, joins us in this episode!

In the one-hundred-twelfth minute of The Avengers...
We finally get to find out Bruce’s secret! But first, we get to enjoy Mark Ruffalo at his rumpliest with his perfect reaction to everything going on. We talk about Natasha’s comments, Bruce’s apology, how that plays based on what happened, and the fact that Thor didn’t get an apology when he really took more hits than Natasha.

It leads us to a moment of confusion as we try to sort out why Tony always seemed to expect Bruce to arrive. Was it aspirational? Was he tracking him? Is it just the scientist rom-com meet-cute connection they have? Hard to tell. Regardless, he decides to bring the party, aka. the sweet sea cow of a leviathan that Hulk decides to destroy. It’s terrible. It’s beautiful. And miraculously, our heroes get nary a scratch. Tune in!
