THE FANDOM ZONE 228: "Partners, Am I Right?" Is Up!

 
"I told you you're supposed to be lookout."
"Yeah, but of the two of us, who do you trust up there not to get distracted?"
"That's not fair, that your inability to act like a grown-up helps you get your way."
"No, it's not. But it is what it is."
-- Clint Barton and Kate Bishop, Hawkeye: "Partners, Am I Right?"
