[suspenseful music playing]

[gasping]

Where am I?

[tense music playing]

Stop it.

[screaming in terror]

Mary Jane.

We were made for each other.

Made for each other!

Oh no, you can't run away from me.

[cackling eerily]

[Mary Jane screaming]

[gasps]

You can't go home, dear.

[cackling]

[screaming]

[screaming]

[Peter] Mary Jane!

-What is it? -Huh?

Oh.

Nothing.

Nothing, I must have fallen asleep, that's all.

You had the dream again, didn't you?

The one you've been having every night this week.

It's just a dream, Tiger.

Don't look so worried.

Hey, look, we made it!

Niagara Falls. [chuckling]

I can't believe this old van actually got us here.

It's about time.

This is probably the longest delayed honeymoon in history.

Sorry, M.J.

[Mary Jane] It was well worth the wait.

I assure you, Mr. Parker.

But I still think we should've used the money

on some other luxury,

like our rent, maybe.

A bonus from Jameson is so rare, Mrs. Parker.

It demands to be spent on something special.

M.J.?

Yes, Peter.

I just want you to know that--

[gasping in alarm]

What's wrong?

Our boat, it's leaving!

No, it's the last one of the day.

Come on!

It's no use, we've missed it!

Grab my arm.

[ship horn blaring]

[crowds cheering]

We were both all-American in track and field.

[whimsical music playing]

All-American?

Well, what's the point of being married to Spider-Man

if you don't get some of the perks.

I have to share Spider-Man with the world.

Right now I want Peter Parker

all to myself.

Now, what was it you were about to say back in the van?

This.

Our marriage,

the last few weeks with you,

this honeymoon,

these have been the best times of my life.

I don't ever want them to end.

They won't, tiger.

Not as long as I'm around to love you.

[bright violin music playing]

[Hydro-Man] Let go of her, now!

-[grunting] -[gasping]

Morrie Bench?

It's not possible.

I saw you evaporate into nothing.

[chuckling]

Everything is possible for me, Red.

I told you nothing could keep us apart.

Not even oblivion.

[Mary Jane] Morrie!

Leave my husband alone!

Husband?

You think I'm gonna let this wimp stand in my way?

Uh-uh, we were meant to be together.

I'm taking you back to New York, Red.

We're going my way.

[Mary Jane screaming]

[tense music playing]

Mary Jane!

[dramatic music playing]

[gasps] Mary Jane!

[gasping]

[Peter voiceover] All that's left is her jacket.

With Bench's ability to move through water,

they could be miles away!

But Bench did say he was taking her back to New York.

I've gotta get there as fast as possible.

Come on, van, don't let me down now!

Tall buildings

at last.

[resolute music playing]

Now I've got to look everywhere that Hydro-Man might go.

Places near water.

Where is she?

I've been searching for hours now

with no sign of them.

If anyone can help me

Terry Lee can.

[Anna] Why for heaven's sake

didn't you come to us right away?

Or to the police.

I don't know.

I thought I could find her myself.

I didn't wanna waste time.

[gasping] The police are a waste of time?

Oh, I just knew something like this would happen.

Anna, please be calm.

No, May, I won't be calm!

You're my best friend,

and I hate to have to say this in front of you,

but Peter's actions are directly responsible

for Mary Jane's disappearance.

How dare you!

How dare you accuse me of harming

the one woman in the world

I would give anything to protect!

Calm down, Parker,

that's not gonna get us anywhere!

The best thing you all can do right now is go home

and let us do our job.

And, please,

let's keep Spider-Man out of this altogether, okay?

[Peter voiceover] Terry Lee is right.

Spider-Man is useless.

Useless!

My wife's life is on the line

and I seem powerless to stop that maniac!

Am I too frightened for her safety

to think clearly?

Why can't I come up with a plan or find a clue?

[door knocks]

Come in!

Felicia!

Oh, Parker, I was on my way to the airport

when I heard over the news what happened.

What can I do to help?

Do, there's nothing to do.

Bench can be anywhere.

Do anything.

All we can do is sit here and feel the pain of losing her.

[Felicia] I can't believe I'm hearing this.

This isn't a time to give up.

What about Spider-Man?

You've kept him in the public eye for so long.

Isn't it time you asked him to do something for you?

Please, Felicia, I need to be alone right now.

I am sorry.

I didn't mean to.

You must be under a lot of pressure.

But don't give up on finding Mary Jane, Parker.

If you do,

you'll be giving up on the best part of yourself.

[Peter voiceover] She's right.

I've let despair consume me.

I've gotta stop thinking like Peter Parker husband

and start thinking like Peter Parker scientist!

Parker, if you're not going to find Spider-Man,

then, maybe, somebody ought to find him for you.

Somebody like the Black Cat.

[resolute music playing]

[harp music playing]

Oh, don't you ever sleep, detective?

Not when there's a missing person out there somewhere.

And we've got a big, fat clue right under our noses.

But we've tested it five times.

We need fresh minds.

Maybe, you don't require sleep, Detective Lee,

but some of us do.

All right!

All right, Betty, we'll get a fresh start in the morning.

[clank]

-Did you hear something? -Huh?

Like what?

Oh, never mind, I guess it is getting late.

[unsettling music playing]

[Peter voiceover] I've been concentrating so hard

on my work, I lost track of time.

Classes are going to start soon.

I don't want any overachieving science majors

interrupting my work.

I'm betting Bench in his liquid form

passed through M.J.'s jacket during the abduction.

Bingo!

To look at these tray sediments

I'd say it's mud,

but it's so consistent, artificial.

I wonder--

[Debra] Hey, who locked this door?

[Peter voiceover] Oh great, perfect timing.

[Debra] Who's in there?

Open this door!

Go away, Debra!

Peter Parker, is it you?

I've got experiments running.

So do I.

Just give me five minutes, Debra.

No way, Peter.

You've gotta play by the rules like everybody else.

Hey!

Hey, some nut has barracked himself in the lab.

Open this door!

[knocking on door]

[Peter voiceover] These hydrocarbons

aren't refined at all.

They're crude oil, that's it!

I know where he's taken her!

Please, let there be some left.

Yes, my special batch of coagulating web fluid.

It came in handy when I tackled Hydro-Man the last time.

[banging on door]

All right, you self-centered, egotistical--

Now, where on earth did he go?

Found you, Spider, at last.

The only place you might find unrefined oil

is either a tanker or a drill.

Bingo!

It's the only one within a hundred miles of here.

[resolute music playing]

[jet boat engine roaring]

Spider, Spider!

[Hydro-Man] Mary Jane!

Stay away!

You stay away from me!

Come back here, Red.

It's time we had a little heart-to-heart talk.

[unsettling music playing]

[laughing]

[Mary Jane screaming]

[grunting and screaming]

[Mary Jane] Oh, Peter.

Mary Jane, are you okay?

[Hydro-Man screaming]

Oh no, you don't, Spider-Man!

This is my party, you're not invited!

Look out!

Stop this, Bench, before someone gets hurt.

[chuckling] Someone like you!

I can't be hurt, Wall Crawler!

Or didn't your attempt to destroy me last time

convince you!

You did that yourself, Morrie.

Or have you forgotten all that?

Here's something else you might have forgotten.

[Hydro-Man grunting]

Well, that's the last of my web fluid.

It won't hold him for long, honey.

We've gotta get you out of here.

No way, I can't leave you.

Look, M.J., I can't fight him with you here.

I'll worry about you and make mistakes.

Please, let me do this alone.

All right.

I understand. Be careful, Tiger.

I love you.

[menacing music playing]

I don't weaken quite so easily.

I have an entire ocean beneath me to feed my power.

Mary Jane won't get far.

And with her safely off the platform

I can really cut loose!

Oh great, he wasn't trying before?

[Hydro-Man laughing]

[crane crash booming]

[grunting]

[laughing spitefully]

[tense music playing]

[grunting]

Oh no, no, no, no, don't worry, Wall Crawler.

You won't drown, look.

I see.

As soon as the platform sinks a few more feet,

you'll be fried!

Meanwhile, I'll be hunting down Mary Jane.

Oh yes, it's been real nice, ha!

No use, it won't budge!

[dramatic music playing]

[grunting]

It's no use.

I've lost.

Mary Jane, forgive me.

Come on.

Cat, thanks.

Sorry, I cut it so close.

But I had to find a boat to get me here.

Unfortunately, that last step is a doozy.

I've got no way to web over to it.

We've got to jump.

The water is still electrified.

Even with my legs I don't think we can--

We've got to!

[dramatic music playing]

[explosions booming]

Perfect.

Just ease her in, ma'am.

Who says there's never policemen around when you need one?

Whatever you say, officer.

Am I ever glad to see you.

[Officer] Tell it to the judge, miss.

[Mary Jane] Hey, wait!

What are you doing?

That was a little too close.

Hey, don't take this the wrong way.

But just how did you manage to be here, anyway?

Peter Parker's wife is missing.

I thought since you sometimes work with Parker

you'd be looking for her, too.

But why are you back in New York?

What about Morbius? Is he here too?

No, he's still overseas.

Why aren't you with him?

The short answer is I wanted to get away.

Morbius never lets up on his mission.

He and Blade are obsessed

with ridding the world of vampires.

I couldn't handle that obsession anymore.

I needed a break.

I needed to be with somebody a little more lighthearted.

Somebody like you, Spider.

I'm sorry, Cat, it's too late for that.

Much too late.

Well, I certainly feel a bit foolish.

Cat, I'm not the footloose, fun-loving guy you knew.

I understand.

Your friend's wife is in terrible danger.

I just hope Mary Jane is smart enough

to stay ahead of that creep until we catch up them.

[Spider-Man] So do I, cat.

Grand theft is no laughing matter.

Oh, the boat. Well, I just--

Just get in the car.

[Mary Jane] No, you don't understand.

[unsettling music playing]

No sign of them.

They can't have gotten far.

We search.

We search until we find them.

[Mary Jane] Then I lowered myself into the boat

and ran into you guys.

How many times do I have to tell you?

Just until we hear the truth, miss.

The clerk is checking in to--

Don't you get it?

Bench is still out there.

He won't stop until he finds me!

Well, then, it's lucky you're safe in a building

full of policemen.

Yeah, lucky me.

[Officer] The truth.

His name is Morrie Bench.

Yeah, she's here.

But she's being questioned.

Visitors aren't allowed.

I think you can make a little exception in my case.

[officer screaming]

[laughing]

What on earth was that?

I think I've got a pretty good idea.

Come on!

[dramatic music playing]

Hey, let's go!

Run all you want, Red!

You won't get far.

[Black Cat] Still no sign of them.

This is hopeless.

Nothing is hopeless.

Mary Jane knows I'm looking for her.

She'll find a way to signal me.

What I really need is a weapon.

Hey, wait.

Potassium perchlorate.

Why does that sound so familiar?

Oh, they're so beautiful.

How do they get those wonderful colors.

Oh, it's very simple.

If you burn strontium nitrate,

you get a brilliant red light.

And for blue light, you use potassium perchlorate.

That's it!

Mrs. Parker, you're getting to be

as much of a science wiz as your husband.

Strontium nitrate, where are you?

[gasps]

[suspenseful music playing]

Come on out, Red!

You're only delaying the inevitable.

[tense music playing]

Oh, nice try, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, but that won't work this time, Red.

Besides, I've got plenty of water to feed me.

And I'm not about to fall to pieces.

[Mary Jane voiceover] That's why I've got

something else in mind.

That's odd.

What is?

[Black Cat] I've never seen pollution like that before.

Brilliant!

Mary Jane, you've done it again!

Spider!

It's only a matter of time before I find you!

[grunting]

Sorry, Red, but now I'm really steamed!

I don't mean to sound like Dr. Ruth,

but, Morrie, is it possible the lady is trying

to tell you something

by evaporating you, boiling you,

and fleeing in terror from you?

I am sick of your interference!

Mary Jane, get out!

I can hold him here.

[dramatic music playing]

[Hydro-Man cackling]

Whoops, I guess I'm just all thumbs.

Cat, this isn't your fight!

Don't be greedy.

It's our fight!

I realize I'm not attracted to adventurous men,

despite their dedication to causes.

But because of it, maybe, it's time for me

to become a bit more dedicated like them.

Would you two just shut up and stand still!

[explosion booming]

[Black Cat grunting]

Cat!

Just you and me, pal.

Are you all right?

Hard to believe I came here to rescue you, isn't it?

[explosions booming]

[urgent music playing]

This time I'm not leaving anything to chance.

I'm finishing you off myself.

Bye-bye, Spider-Man.

It's time to flush the bug down the drain!

Oh no!

No! [screaming]

Oh no, is not possible?

[dramatic music playing]

You can't do this to me!

Peter, what's happening to me?

Mary Jane.

Mary Jane?

How could you?

I mean, how on earth did you--

I don't know.

I really don't know.
