The film is an entertaining and humorous take on the character and is set after the events of the first Thor film. As Coulson drives down the road, he stops at a convenience store to grab a snack, providing him with some much-needed respite from his high-stakes mission. He steps inside the store, chatting with the clerk, a friendly local man who seems to recognize him but doesn't quite know his identity. Coulson orders his usual coffee and heads towards the counter to pay. However, as he reaches the checkout, a robbery unfolds in the background. The convenience store is being held up by a bumbling and amateur criminal, who is clearly in over his head. Coulson's instincts kick in as he takes in the situation, but instead of jumping into action immediately, he takes a moment to finish paying for his coffee and enjoying his snack. As the situation escalates, Coulson uses his vast experience and quick thinking to assess the situation. He uses his knowledge of the building's security systems and layout to his advantage, using the convenience store's own surveillance system against the thief. As the robbers take the clerk hostage, Coulson takes his position as the hero of the story, disarming and subduing the robbers one by one. Despite his attempts to be inconspicuous, his involvement becomes impossible to conceal as his exceptional abilities shine through. In a comedic twist, Coulson finds himself struggling to keep the store open while also dealing with the aftermath of the robbery. He efficiently sorts through the chaos, demonstrating his leadership skills and attention to detail in the face of unexpected challenges. As the dust settles, Coulson makes his phone call to Nick Fury to report the success of the robbery's thwarting. He manages to keep a straight face, knowing that Fury will likely not believe what had transpired. At the end of the film, Coulson is seen calmly leaving the convenience store with the coffee now finished, reflecting on the strange and chaotic series of events that unfolded before his eyes, all while keeping his professionalism and dedication to duty. In total, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Thor's Hammer offers an entertaining glimpse into the life of Agent Coulson and his exceptional abilities as an agent and guardian of the security of the world from a range of threats that might arise. The One-Shot provides us an insight into the character, highlighting his quick thinking, his exceptional professionalism, and his willingness to stay cool under pressure in unexpected situations.
