Shaun and Katy are in Wong’s library. Wong is studying a holographic image of the rings and talking with Captain Marvel and Bruce Banner, who are linked in by 3D holograms. Wong notes that the rings are far older than they thought. Captain Marvel gets beeped and she takes off, saying that Bruce has her number if they need to contact her. She disconnects, and Bruce says he doesn’t have her number, she says that all the time. They discover that the rings act as a kind of beacon, sending a message somewhere. No one knows where, and then Bruce disconnects from the meeting. Wong then tells Shaun and Katy that their lives are now changed, and they should go home and get some sleep to prepare for their next adventure. Shaun and Katy agree, saying they should go home… OR… cut to Wong, Shaun, and Katy rocking out to Hotel California at a karaoke bar.

What did you think of this film?

Based on the powerful and thought-provoking true story of young lawyer Bryan Stevenson (Jordan) and his history-making battle for justice. After graduating from Harvard, Bryan had his pick of lucrative jobs. Instead, he heads to Alabama to defend those wrongly condemned or who were not afforded proper representation, with the support of local advocate Eva Ansley (Larson). One of his first, and most incendiary, cases is that of Walter McMillian (Foxx), who, in 1987, was sentenced to die for the notorious murder of an 18-year-old girl, despite a preponderance of evidence proving his innocence and the fact that the main testimony against him came from a criminal with a motive to lie. In the years that follow, Bryan becomes embroiled in a labyrinth of legal and political maneuverings, as well as overt and unabashed racism as he fights for Walter, and others like him, with the odds—and the system—stacked against them.
