| Jul 23, 2015 at 14:40 | comment | added | recognizer | This was my interpretation as well, and I think it was an intentional part of Hank and Hope's plan - with the wreckage of the building being shrunk to a tiny size, it would probably be difficult for Cross or his associates to even locate the shrunken remains of their research, as cleanup efforts would mix the shrunken remains of the building with normal debris on the round. | |

| Jul 22, 2015 at 7:59 | comment | added | Dr R Dizzle | This is exactly what I was going to say. The amount of experimentation with Pym Particles done in that buidling means we almost certainly saw the buidling shrink rapidly once the first container was breached, mid explosion. | |
| Jul 22, 2015 at 7:02 | comment | added | Anthony Grist | I hadn't thought of that, but it seems plausible! I thought maybe they'd used the same explosive that we saw in Agent Carter, since it had a similar effect of causing the building to implode rather than explode, but it looked like regular C4 when it was being placed. | |
