In Greenpoint, Brooklyn, a reporter, Stuart, is interviewing the Mayor of New York City by the East River, as Manhattan burns in the distance. While Stuart presses the Mayor for his opinions on the crisis, the Mayor seems unmoved by the invasion of Vikings. The Mayor remarks that the Avengers are en route to the scene, and a Marine regiment is standing by to engage, and predicts that by the next evening, everything be back to normal, as things of this nature usually are. As the report expresses disbelief in the Mayor's optimistic attitude, citing eyewitness reports on the invader's power, a spear strikes the Mayor in the head, impaling him through his brain and killing him. While the reporter attempts to hold back vomit, across the river Harald Jaekelsson hands a second spear to one of his crew, remarking that he landed his first throw.
