Fury heads home to his apartment and is surprised by Laura Brown, who tells him that she thought it would be nice to spend Christmas together. Their celebrations are interrupted by a transmission from The Hate-Monger, who plans to drop a "Germ Bomb" to wipe out the entire population of NYC and as a result, will turn the world leaders against each other, resulting in a nuclear holocaust that will purge Earth of all living beings. But thanks to a mysterious unidentified object, Fury manages to make it home in time to finish celebrating with Laura.
