After. After whatever tortures Fury can concoct, you would appear as a friend, as a balm. And I would cooperate.

Natasha (Black Widow)
Before I worked for S.H.I.E.L. D... I... Well, I made a name for myself. I have a very specific skill set. I didn't care who I used it for, or on. I got on S.H.I.E.L.D.'s radar in a bad way. Agent Barton was sent to kill me. He made a different call.

Natasha (Black Widow)
It's really not that complicated. I got red in my ledger, I'd like to wipe it out.

What?
