“You know, we need another power source,” Tony says out loud as he and Killmonger have a brainstorming session. As Tony continues to press some ideas, Killmonger introduces one of his own.

“What we need is Vibranium,” says Killmonger candidly. “With the right juice, it can act as a self-sustaining energy source.” While the thought definitely entertains Tony, there’s some reluctance there as well.

“Too bad Pops used the last of it during the war,” Tony responds, referencing his father Howard Stark’s use of Vibranium in the past. Thankfully, Killmonger has a plan. “Not all of it,” he tells Tony as he holds up a ring containing the precious material.

Shocked, he wonders where Killmonger found the Vibranium. His vague answer sparks an idea in Tony’s mind, and he goes straight to Pepper Potts for her input. But is she as willing to explore the options at the expense and rise of Stark Industries? Find out in the clip above, and tune in for the episode when it begins streaming September 15 on Disney+.
