Synopsis for "Girls' Night In"

Crusher Creel has arrived in New York City. And he plans on storming Avengers Tower to reclaim his ball and chain. Meanwhile, inside the tower, Avengers coordinators Maria Hill, Victoria Hand (who has contracted a cold), and Sharon Carter in the middle of a meeting when Creel storm the building. Though it was figured that he was depowered last time, apparently, he has apparently regained his absorption powers. With no time to gather the Avengers, Carter suggests that they tackle Creel themselves. She confronts Creel as soon as he emerges from the elevator and shoots down a glass chandelier on him, which he absorbs, allowing her to shatter him into a million pieces. Unfortunately, a sickly Hand warns them that Creel can reconstitute. The coordinators run into another room, where Hill tells Carter that she has prepped a room that should hold Creel until the Avengers arrive. And Hand has a plan: if Creel wants an Avenger, then they'll give him one...

Using the building's intercoms, Hill is able to trick Creel into thinking that they have a new recruit being safeguarded. But the new "recruit" is in fact Hand, who tricks Creel into absorbing her cold, as he is locked up. When the coordinators return to the conference room, they find Spider-Man sitting amongst his webs, having arrived for a midnight snack. The exasperated ladies imply that Carter may shoot him.
