This episode is titled "Never Meet Your Heroes".


Summary:


In 2012, during the Battle of New York, a young Kate Bishop
witnesses Clint Barton battling the Chitauri and aspires to
become a hero like him after he inadvertently saves her life,
although Bishop's father is killed during the attack. In the
present day, Barton spends time with his children in New York for
Christmas. Bishop attends a charity auction gala with her mother
Eleanor and learns that she is engaged to Jack Duquesne.
Underneath the gala, she stumbles onto a black market auction
featuring items recovered from the remains of the Avengers
Compound, finding Duquesne and his uncle Armand III among the
attendees. The auction is interrupted by the Tracksuit Mafia, a
Russian street gang who attempts to recover a watch among the
items. Bishop recovers Barton's Ronin suit and defeats the
Tracksuit Mafia members while wearing it. She escapes to her
apartment after rescuing a stray dog and tracks down Armand to
investigate further. Bishop discovers that Armand has been
murdered in his home and is cornered by the Tracksuit Mafia
members after fleeing the crime scene. Barton, who saw a news
report of the Ronin's return, rescues Kate from the gangsters.
