"O...kay," I say, a little thrown, but undeterred. It's not like Tony to say no to dangerous and insane science experiments, but I can get where he's coming from.

"Pym's kind of a joke, I get it, but his tech's seriously worth looking at, Tony. The guy can basically carry a universe in his pocket. A literal pocket universe. If we could compress time and space like that, it'd be possible to create a portal without having to punch a hole through the fabric of reality."

And if Pym can build it, I don't see why we couldn't. Even without a multi-million dollar lab.
