As Red Ronin tries to stomp on Hawkeye, the archer finds that even his explosive arrows don’t faze the robot; however, an arriving Wonder Man distracts it by flying a Quinjet at its head, bailing out seconds before Ronin destroys the craft. Its attention diverted, the robot wades into the river again, departing moments before SHIELD’s Behemoth arrives. Hawkeye and Wonder Man join the other Avengers on board, while inside Red Ronin’s leg Beast and Jocasta continue their ascent to the control room. Earl Cowan awakes as the coast guard hails Red Ronin, but discovers the command linkage to the robot is broken, leaving it stuck on his last order, to “destroy.” The Avengers catch up with Ronin, and when it throws its shield at the Behemoth, Iron Man commandeers the weapon, turning it against Ronin and slicing the robot in half at the waist. Reaching the head’s command center, Beast and Jocasta find a penitent Cowan futilely trying to stop the robot, now crawling towards the Long Island Expressway; as it raises a fist to smash the road, Beast pulls a plug, switching the robot off. After the Behemoth carries off Ronin’s remains, the Avengers return to the mansion to find the Scarlet Witch, Dr. Don Blake, and the very pregnant Ms. Marvel. A few hours later, as the Avengers try to relax, Blake informs them that Ms. Marvel has gone into labor, one unlike any he has ever seen.
