10 Times Female Marvel Cinematic Universe Characters Totally Ruled

2. Pepper Potts Keeps Her Cool To Reveal Stane's Deceit (Iron Man)

Marvel StudiosMarvel StudiosIn the first Iron Man movie, when Tony Stark was informed by Christine Everhart about the details of the Ten Rings, the titular hero realised that Obadiah Stane was up to no good (he'd tried to have Stark killed, despite the fact that they had supposedly been good friends for many years). Stark met with Pepper Potts and told her that he needed to destroy the weapons his company had been manufacturing (as they'd been given to the Ten Rings on Stane's orders) and stop the Ten Rings in their tracks. Pepper agreed to help him and Stark gave her a USB pen in order for her to copy all the files from Stark Industries on to it so that he could get the details of exactly what Stane had been up to. While she was in the middle of copying the information, Stane entered the room she was in. Keeping her cool, she kept him talking until he approached, at which point she put the screensaver on. The pair spoke some more until Potts calmly left, using a newspaper to disguise her removal of the USB pen. She quickly exited the building with Phil Coulson, as Stane closed the screensaver to see a "download complete" notification on the screen and realised what the very cool and collected Potts had been up to.
