The punchline is that Tony knew what Pepper was all along. No joke, he had it figured out.
The moment he clocked that Theory blazer and the fishtail braid, his first thought? "Yep, littlest little the world's ever seen." But, of course, it's not about appearances, right? It's what's in the file she handed over—straight-faced, all business—and boom, there it is. Hah, called it. Baseline. Baseline? Now hold on a damn second—that's something he thought too, by the way—what? Who cleared this woman? Does he have a nose that can sniff out the truth better than a two-day psych eval? Seriously? They were just thrown off by her height—yeah, she's got long legs, but is that it? Did they get so intimidated that they slapped a stamp on her and shoved her into the "common folk" category?

Tony realizes Pepper is a little—at least he thinks he does—and he hires her anyway.
