Spider-Man Return of the Sinister Six: The Sinister Six has re-assembled (now composed of Doctor Octopus, Mysterio, Rhino, Vulture, Alistair Smythe, and the Lizard) and intend to get revenge on the man, or in this case, the Spider-Man, that put them away. So when these six break out, they attack Spider-Man's home, putting Gwen Stacy in the hospital. Because of this, Spider-Man puts himself on the case to try and find whoever attacked him, leading him to Doctor Octopus.
Shadowing Doctor Octopus after learning that he escaped jail, Peter discovers that Doctor Octopus and Doctor Connors have teamed up with AIM to create a powerful creature capable of destroying Spider-Man. The webslinger gets inside, but is attacked by Rhino and Alistair Smythe, who hold him off long enough for the doctors to escape. Smythe then attempts to kill Peter, but after he fails, his suit detonates. Back with the rest of the Sinister Six, the group breaks out Chameleon, offering him a spot on the team, which he accepts. This Sinister Six then takes up Ana Kravinoff's mansion to use as a base, as provided by Chameleon.
While the team establishes themselves, Rhino is sent out to rob a few banks and obtain funds to continue their work. However, Rhino is soon stopped by Spider-Man, and in exchange for a shorter sentence, he sells out the rest of the team. Little does Spider-Man know, however, that the team had already split up, with Mysterio and Chameleon heading to the hospital disguised as Peter and Aunt May with the plan to finish off Gwen Stacy. Spider-Man fails to get there in time, and Gwen Stacy is gone: kidnapped by the Sinister Six.
Then, when Vulture tries to rob an armored vehicle and is stopped by Spider-Man, he tells him that they are hiding Gwen Stacy at the mansion on a clock tower. Peter reaches it and while he is able to find Gwen, he is unable to stop her from falling to her death at the hands of Doctor Octopus.
Spider-Man then flees, but comes back the next day with Silk, Kid Arachnid, and Spider-Woman at his side. With them, Peter defeats the Sinister Six, ending their reign of terror.

Gambit: Remy Lebeau was a child kidnapped by the New Orleans Thieves Guild and raised as a potential uniter for the Thieves Guild and the Assassin's Guild. As a teenager, Remy gained mutant bio-kinetic abilities, though he kept them secret from the guild. At the same time, Remy and his cousin Etienne were sent on a mission to steal a powerful artifact from a witch's house. However, when they get there, they are captured by the immortal witch Candra. But she soon gets rid of them when she sees a vision of Remy, going by the name Gambit, murdering her in the future. She sells Remy and Etienne to a slaver known as the Pig, who plans to have them collared and sold off to the highest bidder as personal soldiers.
During this time, Remy and Etienne meet other mutants such as Beak, Maggott, and Marrow. With them, Remy reveals his powers to his cousin, and helps them break away from the Pig. He accomplishes this when he throws a card at the Pig's head, followed by it detonating inside him. The five then escape off a cliff, but Etienne drowns shortly after.
Remy, blaming himself for this, decides to ignore his pain and immediately go back to work as a thief. His first mission, ironically, is to finish the failed mission that started it all: obtain the artifact from Candra. Now empowered by his abilities and calling himself Gambit, Remy breaks in, but instead of trying to sneak around and steal it again, Gambit murders Candra, just as she predicted.
Stealing the artifact, Gambit returns it to the guild, who tell him he is to use it as a peace offering to the Assassin's Guild's head assassin's granddaughter, Bella Boudreaux. Before they are to be wed, however, Gambit is assigned on one final mission: obtain the journals of Dr. Nathaniel Essex from a facility in the Bayou. He does this, and learns of a program known as the Weapon X Program, which has empowered multiple mutants in the previous decades.
Seeing the violent experiments being done, Gambit burns the journals and blows up the facility. When Gambit returns to the guild, he is greeted by Bella's brother Julian, who challenges Gambit to a duel. During it, Gambit kills Julian, resulting in Gambit being kicked out of the guild and being broken up with by Bella. Thus, Gambit is on his own as the master thief of New Orleans.

Captain Marvel Rogue Warrior: Carol Danvers is Captain Marvel again, and she intends to defend the world no matter what it thinks of her. While some of think of her as a menace, there are others who take that hate farther than any others. One of these people is the shape-shifting mutant Mystique.
This woman has spent her time trying to force mutant superiority onto the populace, all the while growing a following of mutants who call for the annihilation of non-mutated humans. Alongside her is her lover Destiny, a precognitive mutant, and adopted daughter Rogue, a power-absorbing mutant. Mystique believes that as long as there are superhumans whose powers did not derive from mutations, then the fear mutants can strike into the hearts of people will be limited. One of these non-mutated superhumans is Carol Danvers, and after hearing her adoptive mother's hate for Carol, Rogue takes it upon herself to best Captain Marvel.
Heading to San Francisco, Rogue finds Carol in a battle between herself and Moonstone. When Carol defeats her, however, she is attacked by Rogue, who tries to absorb Carol's powers. However, because Carol's powers are linked to her mind, a portion of her personality is also absorbed by Rogue, causing Carol to pass out and drop into the ocean.
Though Carol is saved by War Machine, when she awakes in the hospital, she finds she can remember her memories, but she cannot have an emotional connection to those memories. As Captain Marvel deals with her feelings of detachment from the world, Rogue strikes again and tries to attack her, but during their fight, Rogue's mind is overtaken by Carol's, resulting in Carol having to fight herself. However, Rogue eventually regains control and escapes, using her now permanent power of flight.
But this girl clearly didn't research Carol hard enough, and she tracks her to Mystique's hideout, where she knocks her unconscious and takes her to a nearby hospital, where she tries to get her emotional connection back. However, the doctors soon tell Carol this is impossible, and that Carol could be stuck like this for years. As this happens, Rogue awakes, only to hear the voice of Carol in her head.
As the girl starts to scream, she is sedated. Carol then announces that she will head to space, where the environment matches her life: empty.

Deadpool's New Groove: Hi I'm Deadpool! You may remember me from popular films such as: Deadpool. And that's it! Whatever, as you can see, I've come back home to Marvel, and they're giving me a new coat of paint! But this isn't some reboot or retelling, this is my story continued. So for this, we'll assume that my first movie still counts! How can I jump universes and remain the same ole' Deadpool? God, you ask a lot of questions. Just know that I'm here, Deadpool counts, and now we can continue on with the story. Huh, another question? Yes, you with the stupid hat. Deadpool 2? Okay, let me level with you, the writer wrote this plot summary in July 2016, so he doesn't know what Deadpool 2 will entail, so we're assuming only Deadpool 1 counts. And now: on with the story!
Wade Wilson was just minding his own business, being a superpowered mercenary, kicking ass, and taking names. Everything changes when he is attacked by a man from the future named Cable. This half-cyborg, half-man time traveler tells Wade that Deadpool will be the cause of an apocalyptic future that kills everyone Cable knows and loves.
However, Deadpool disagrees, as he accidentally hits an indian man in a wheelchair in the face. This man introduces himself as Garabed Bashur, and offers Deadpool a job: kill a mercenary group known as the True Patriots who have been hunting after him. When Deadpool asks why they're hunting him, he shows his true power: technopathy. With power like that, the leader of these villains could theoretically destroy the world.
Cable, seeing this as an obvious prophecy, says he's following Deadpool to make sure that nothing goes wrong. Soon, the two find this group of mercenaries, who they learn are the magical resurrected bodies of former US presidents with the minds of well-trained assassins. During his hunt, Deadpool reconnects with Vanessa, whose skin has now turned grey and is calling herself Domino. Domino, Cable, and Deadpool then go hunt for the True Patriots, killing each one, and eventually, finding the location to their leader's headquarters.
Once there, however, they are greeted by Bashur, now calling himself Black Box. He explains that while he can control technology, he cannot control his own body, and needs Deadpool's regenerative powers to truly take over the world. Cable then realizes that this is the villain who took control of the Earth, as he became immortal by taking Deadpool's powers. As Black Box tries to get Deadpool into a state of submission, Domino and Cable attack and eventually defeat him. Thus, Deadpool saved the day all by himself.
After credits scene:
Deadpool is shown in his house with Domino, going through his suits. He then pulls out a white variation of his costume.
Deadpool: "Oh this? Oh, that's just my costume for the X-Force movie. Yeah, that's a thing we're doing! When? I don't know, I'm not Kevin Feige. Just know that my lady, The Doctor, and I are going to be in it! So go see it when it comes out!"
Deadpool then waves.

Deadpool returns to his microwave, only to turn back to the audience.
Deadpool: "Seriously, stop staring. It's creepy. I feel like I'm on an episode of To Catch A Predator"
Deadpool returns to his microwave again, only to turn back to the audience.

Deadpool then shoots the camera.

The New Warriors Midnight: The New Warriors return with a new team (composed of Night Thrasher, Sun Girl, Richard Rider, Firestar, Justice, and Silhouette). Their first mission is news of a teenager who awoke from a hospital with powers, and is holding his nurse hostage. At the hospital, the team encounters the teen, whose name is Elvin Holiday, and they talk him into releasing the nurse. He then surrenders himself, saying that he never wanted to hurt anyone, and only wanted help. The team takes him back to their headquarters, and keep him in their vault until they can figure out how to help him.
Meanwhile, Silhouette is contacted by someone she thought was long dead: her brother, Aaron Chord. Like his sister, Aaron obtained powers from birth due to his father's mating with an alien race of superpowered beings. Calling himself Midnight's Fire, he and Silhouette once fought crime in their pre-teens, until he was killed by a druglord. Silhouette then gave up her crime fighting until she joined the New Warriors.
Now that he's contacted her, the two meet up for coffee, and he offers her a position as his sidekick in his new operation. Of course, she accepts, and then heads with him to go on her first mission. What she finds, however, is that he has become a violent vigilante, killing people he perceives as criminals indiscriminately. When she tries to stop him from murdering a common thief, he backhands her and warns her not to get in the way of justice.
Racing back to the New Warriors, Silhouette asks them to take pity on Midnight's Fire and let him join the team as a member, preventing him from killing. When they try this, though, Midnight's Fire claims that Silhouette betrayed him and the New Warriors are too soft on crime. He then shoots Silhouette, placing her in critical condition. As a result, the New Warriors need a new team member, and recruit Elvin onto the team under the name Rage.
The team then heads to the headquarters of Midnight's Fire, where he tries to kill Night Thrasher for interfering with him bringing Silhouette to justice. As the team fights through the headquarters, however, they see that Midnight's Fire has been injecting himself with a serum to induce mutations in an attempt to make himself stronger. Realizing that this is causing his aggression to be far higher than normal, Night Thrasher beats him into unconsciousness, and ties him down long enough for the serum to wear off.
When it does, Midnight's Fire sees what he's done to Silhouette and willingly turns himself in, heading to jail. Finally, Rage joins the team as a full time member, while Silhouette leaves for time off.

The Dazzler: Alison Blaire is a mutant who has used her powers not to become a superhero, but to become famous. With the ability to convert sound into light, Blaire began her tour years ago as Dazzler, a pop star who has rocked the world ever since her first concert. Recently, however, when her bouncers were attacked by a riot of fans, Dazzler began to use her powers to defend herself. Thus, Blaire started a triple life: Part time regular girl, part time pop star, and part time superhero. This, of course, draws the attention of powerful enemies for Dazzler, including Mojo, the ruler of an alternate universe revolved around entertainment.
In Mojo's reality, known as Mojoworld, everything is centered around television, as the universe was bombarded by television signals from other realities. So when Mojo sees this singer who can also put on beautiful light shows and fight crime, he sees an opportunity to create a new reality show based around her. At first, Mojo is content with sending his slaves to fight Dazzler in her universe and broadcast the ensuing fights.
During this point of Mojo's show, Dazzler encounters the slave race of Warwolves, the monster Quark, and the warrior Spiral. Mojo is disappointed, however, when the ratings start to drop as the audience tires of the same mundane world that Dazzler lives in being reused over and over again. As those around him call upon Mojo to liven up Dazzler's show, Mojo orders one of his personal soldiers, Longshot, to head to Earth and kidnap Dazzler. Longshot does this, but when he encounters Dazzler, he reveals that he and Quark have planned on liberating Mojoworld from its tyrant leader, and that they need Dazzler's help.
Reluctantly, the girl agrees, and Longshot takes her to Mojoworld. Once in Mojoworld, Dazzler is assigned to her own TV show, where she fights crime and continues her pop career, all the while secretly distracting Mojo as Longshot and Quark plan their attack. Mojo begins to catch on, though, and sends Quark to be brainwashed. Dazzler, taking the initiative, escapes her show's set, reaches the prison and frees Quark.
Alongside Quark and Longshot, Dazzler makes it to Mojo's officer, where his right hand man, Major Domo, attacks them. While Quark and Longshot fight Major Domo, Dazzler forces Mojo to open a portal, allowing her to return home. With Domo defeated, Quark and Longshot arrest Mojo for crimes against the multi-verse, thank Dazzler for her help, and allow her to return to her career as a pop star.

Dazzler is shown backstage, when all of sudden, she notices the people around her are frozen.

Legend of the Wolverine: James Logan Howlett was once a normal Canadian child in the 1880s, until his mutant bone claws appeared and alongside his friend Victor Creed, he escaped into the night. The two would spend years together as heroes, fighting in the both World Wars, as well as Vietnam, before their past caught up with them.
Victor's sister, Clara, returns to her brother, who is shocked to see his sister alive when he heard she died of sickness only days after they left. Clara, however, tells Victor that James had returned to their family home and killed Clara in the night as vengeance for the brutal abuse Victor's father dolled out on James. Victor believes her, and heads to find James, who is living as a lumberjack in the Canadian wilderness with his Native American girlfriend, Silver Fox. Everything comes crumbling down, though, when Victor murders her in front of James.
In her dying breath, Silver Fox tells James of how he embodies the spirit of the Wolverine, and must not let revenge get to him. Taking on the name Wolverine, James chases Victor across Canada, finding him on the other side of the country, where he attempts to kill him. But as neither can be killed, the battle ends in a draw, and the two go their separate ways. After this, Wolverine is recruited into a government program known as Weapon X which plans to make him stronger, which in his mind, can help him kill Sabretooth.
During this, the indestructible metal known as adamantium is grafted onto Wolverine's bones, making him even stronger than he was before. When the group tries to take control of him, though, Wolverine breaks out of the program and escapes into the wilderness.
Thus, the chase is on for Wolverine to find Victor as Weapon X sends their team of mutants after him. This team, composed of Kestrel, Garrison Kane, Jack-In-The-Box, Maverick, and Sluggo, then discovers who Wolverine is hunting for, and teams up with Victor, who is given the nickname Sabretooth. The team then leads Wolverine into a trap, where they try to kill him by submerging him underwater and drowning him. However, during the battle, Wolverine drags down Sabretooth with him, and with his last breath of air, Wolverine frees himself, leaving Sabretooth to drown. However, due to his brain suffering severe damage underwater, Wolverine loses his memories. The Weapon X Team flees, and Wolverine continues his life as an assassin that tracks and kills the evil of the world.

Fantastic Four Annihilation: Ever since Galactus appeared, the Fantastic Four have been researching every single place they can to find enemies capable of attacking Earth. One of the places they've been investigating is the Negative Zone, where Prison 42 is kept, and where Galactus is trapped. During this long period of research, Sue Storm became pregnant, while Johnny has grown farther apart from the team as a whole. But when Sue begins to irradiate anti-matter particles, Reed realizes that her life is at risk, as the baby within her was mutated by her trips to the Negative Zone.
Believing he can find a cure for Sue further into the Negative Zone, Reed, Johnny, and Ben journey in through Prison 42, where they see the Leader is hearing the voice of some being known as Annihilus. Shaking it off as a case of insanity, the three heroes venture to the research department, where Richard Janus is developing a way to harness anti-matter and turn it into useable energy. This all comes to a stop, however, when tapping sounds start appearing throughout the prison. Along with this, massive holes have appeared in the hallways of the prison, which Reed, Johnny, and Ben go to investigate.
What they find is a strange bug-like creature, the first known instance of a Negative Zone creature. As the creature stalks about the facility, the three hunt it down, all the while hearing it take our security guards. Johnny, fortunately, finds it in the research wing, destroying Richard Janus's anti-matter device and killing the doctor. Johnny then kills the bug, ending the crisis: or so they thought.
Soon, more tapping appears, and just as the Leader predicted, Annihilus has arrived, and with him, trillions of the bugs they encountered one of. Seeing that the three could never defeat this army alone, the heroes agree to free some of the villains to help fight: the Leader, Abomination, Executioner, Whirlwind, and Blizzard. Though Kang offers to help, for obvious reasons, they choose to keep him imprisoned. With this team to help them, Reed, Ben, and Johnny are able to get close enough to Annihilus to see that the rod he wields controls the bugs.
So, while the villains, Johnny, and Ben fight the bugs, Reed stretches up and grabs the rod from Annihilus, taking control of the bugs and ordering them to attack Annihilus. Annihilus is then dragged away into the Negative Zone by his bugs, while Johnny, Reed, and Ben must defeat the heroes who helped them, re-locking them in the prison. Back in the real world, Reed develops a cure for Sue's condition, resulting in the birth of their first son: Franklin Richards.

Alpha Flight: In America's neighbor to the north, more and more villains have been appearing. Thus, the Canadian Defense Department H assembles a team of heroes to fight against these villains: Alpha Flight. Led by scientist James Macdonald Hudson, who when in uniform calls himself Guardian, Alpha Flight includes: the twin mutants Northstar and Aurora, the Sasquatch, the dwarf named Puck, the First Nation medicine man Shaman, and the Inuit demigoddess Snowbird. However, a member of Department H, Jerome Jaxon, loathes James Hudson for taking his space on Alpha Flight.
Behind the scenes, Jaxon hopes to show Alpha Flight as a failure, and alongside his robotic assistant Delphine Courtney, he plans to unleash a terrible monster of the north to fight Alpha Flight: The Wendigo. In the far north, the two discover a lost hiker, who they force into committing cannibalism, transforming him into a Wendigo.
This resilient monster begins to attack First Nation villages, and Alpha Flight is called in, only for the monster to push them aside and continue its rampage. Jaxon then hopes to use the Wendigo's weakness to fire, only to learn it is in fact not weak to it, and is beaten to the brink of death by the behemoth. It then lumbers to the center of a First Nation village, breaks into their temple, and releases incredibly powerful monsters: the Great Beasts.
As these beasts begin to wreak havoc on Canada, Omega Flight flees, leaving Alpha Flight to deal with them. So, Shaman summons Ranaq The Devourer, who begins to fight Somon, the Great Artificer. Meanwhile, Snowbird fights Kariooq, the Corruptor and Sasquatch fights Kolomaq, the Beast of the Snows. Suddenly, from the temple, Wendigo returns and is engulfed by Tolomaq, the Fire Beast, only to escape from it, killing the Great Beast.
The rest of Alpha Flight then must fight against Wendigo as the other battles ensue, all the while the team is trying to get the innocent people out of the way. Finally, Somon and Shaman defeat Ranaq and banish him to another dimension, while Snowbird discovers Kariooq's weakness to ice and engulfs him in it, killing him, and Sasquatch beats Kolomaq. With only Wendigo left, the entire team piles on against the creature, forcing it to retreat back into the ruins of the temple, where Shaman magically imprisons him forever. Afterwards, Shaman uses his powers to banish the Great Beasts from this reality, and Canada is saved by Alpha Flight.

X-Men: In a quiet mansion in New York, a man runs a school for mutant children. This man is Charles Xavier, also known as Professor X, and secretly, he also runs a team of powerful mutants who help fight crime. These are the X-Men. On this team is the leader, Scott Summers, who calls himself Cyclops, his telekinetic girlfriend Jean Grey, the Cajun thief Gambit, the popstar Dazzler, the southern belle Rogue, and the mistress of the elements known as Storm. This team dedicates itself to the ideal that mutants and humans can live alongside one another. Opposing this idea, along with many bigoted groups, is the pro-mutant and former friend of Professor X, Erik Lehnsherr, also known as Magneto.
Like Professor X, Magneto too has assembled a team of mutants, known as the Brotherhood of Mutants, which is dedicated to beat the X-Men and ensure that mutants come out as the true inheritors of the Earth. The way they intend to do this is ignite nuclear war across the entire world, cleansing the planet of humans and paving the way for mutants. So, Professor X sends the X-Men to a nuclear facility in the northwest United States, where Mystique is leading her mutant brethren Toad and Sabretooth. However, Xavier keeps Jean Grey with him, explaining that he has located Magneto and wishes to confront him with the powerful telepath at his side.
Jean agrees, and the two head to a nuclear submarine in the Black Sea, where Magneto, Pyro, and Mastermind are hiding out as Mystique sacrifices herself to start the nuclear armageddon. As Magneto tells Xavier his plan, Jean Grey projects his thoughts into Mystique's mind, showing her how little she matters. Enraged, she aims the missile at the submarine and activates it, only for the X-Men to arrive and fight her, stopping the missiles launch.
However, Magneto grows tired of waiting for the beginning of the new age, and pulls the nuclear material from the sub up into the sky and detonates it, igniting a nuclear explosion over the Black Sea. In response, Russia fires its nuclear weapons at the US, potentially starting the war that Magneto wanted. But in the last seconds, something within Jean Grey ignites, and she is able to take control of Magneto long enough to force him to throw the missiles into space. Thus, Magneto is arrested, as are the other members of the Brotherhood of Mutants, and the X-Men return home.

Avengers The Kree/Skrull War: The Avengers are back with a new and expanded roster (Iron Man, Captain America, Spider-Man, She-Hulk, Ant-Man, and Spectrum), as Tony has started to spread out the many heroes across various regions of the world. They are called to the Arctic Circle, where the Quantum Realm Research Base of Dr. Pym is. When they arrive, they find none other than Ronan the Accuser, who proclaims he intends to de-evolve Earth to prehistoric times so that the Kree can use the world as a base for their war with the Skrull. The team then prepares to fight Ronan, who is called back to his ship by the Supreme Intelligence, and replaced with a Kree Sentry. The team then fights the creature and eventually Ant-Man gets inside it and deactivates it.
The Avengers, alongside Dr. Pym, return to the Avengers Headquarters, where they are called by Damocles Base and requested to meet with the head of the base, Abigail Brand. Tony has Spider-Man and Spectrum stay behind, while the rest of the team takes a Quinjet up to the base. Not even five minutes after the team has left, however, Spider-Man and Spectrum are attacked by three cows, who eventually unveil themselves as Skrulls.
As the two heroes fight, the rest of the Avengers meet onboard Damocles with Abigail Brand and the head of the Kree Investigation Department of SWORD: Rick Jones. They explain that they intercepted a communication between Maximus the Mad and the Kree, and that he is attacking Attilan and plans to use the Inhumans there to take over Earth and fight the Skrulls. In need of heroes, Tony calls Clint, leader of the WCA, and requests that any space-traveling heroes are to meet them near Attilan.
When the four Avengers arrive, they are greeted by the new and improved Vision, Darkhawk, and War Machine. The seven Avengers then reach the center of the city and help Black Bolt hold off Maximus long enough for the rest of the Inhuman warriors to arrive. Goliath, Clint's new superhero identity, then arrives in a starship, and takes the seven heroes, saying that he was informed by Spectrum that they need to journey to Skrull space and stop them before another invasion occurs.
Alongside the seven Avengers and Goliath are Spider-Man, Spectrum, and Rick Jones, who journey into Skrull space with them. Once there, Rick Jones acts as a human emissary and speaks with the Skrull Queen who took over after Veranke. However, things go awry and Rick is banished to the Negative Zone. But in the Negative Zone, Rick is rescued by the Supreme Intelligence, who agrees to stop his invasion of Earth if Rick and his companions can defeat the Skrull. Rick agrees, and is granted the Destiny Force, which he uses to travel back to the Avengers, and teleports other heroes with him to help. With this army of heroes, Rick forces the Skrull Queen to surrender, ending the war between the two empires, and ensuring that Earth is safe.
After credits scene:
Prison 42 is shown floating in the Negative Zone. Inside, Kang is in his cell, when suddenly, multiple Kangs appear around him.
Kang: "The Council of Kangs."
Kang 2: "You truly are the weakest of the Kangs. Failing to beat such primitives."
Kang: "I underestimated them."
Kang 3: "No, you were sloppy. But we are willing to give you a chance at redemption. Something is happening in your timeline, and if it is not stopped, all Kangs will be destroyed. Come with us."
Kang then takes the hand of the other Kang, and the four teleport away.
Screen cuts to black.
After credits scene 2:
Tony Stark is shown speaking at a table.
Stark: "And that is why I've called all of you here today."
Strange: "Not all of us, Stark."
Stark: "Fury and T'Challa are not as useful for this situation. We need stronger individuals. And that's who I've gotten."
From behind him, Professor X and Reed Richards appear.
Stark: "These two shall take their places on the team. They will help provide the team with more balance."
The Illuminati symbol then lights up on the table's center.
Stark: "Shall we continue?"
