Original subtitles

Hi, my name is Peter Parker.

You don't remember me, but I have something to tell you that's gonna sound crazy.

But it's the truth.

And I know you're gonna believe me because you're very good at telling when I'm lying.

Evie, can you check the calibration of my targeting matrix?

That doesn't feel zeroed into me.

Checking target calibration.

Hey, Evie, take five.

Standing by.

We used to know each other.

We were together.

But something bad was gonna happen.

And the only way to stop it was to make everyone forget me.

First day, MIT, let's go!

Oh, my gosh, we're here!

We made it!

MJ, come on.

Including you.

Pretend like you're not the happiest you've ever been in your entire life right now.

I can't.

Okay, okay.

Because I'm not just Peter Parker.

I'm Spider-Man.

I'm really, really understanding the culture out here in Boston.

It's just so different.

And sometimes, Spider-Man has to do the if it breaks Peter Parker's heart.

And maybe that's my responsibility.

To live alone with the truth.

But the truth is, MJ, that I love you.

And I hope that deep down, something inside of you remembers that you love me, too.

But until then, I'm just gonna be Spider-Man.

Incoming!

Members of the Manfredi Crime Syndicate were apprehended by Spider-Man yesterday.

Hey, you live on the same floor.

Oh, cool.

Does anybody ever come up here?

Not unless they like asbestos.

We've just been using it for storage.

That's perfect.

Hey everyone, sophomore year Annette is back.

Older, wiser, flyer.

Let's go!

Whoa!

What is on your face?

How do you feel about it?

I mean, you look like an assistant coach.

Are you sure you wanna do this, Scorpion?

Did you miss Miss Spidey?

If I drop you from here, how long do you think it would take you to hit the ground?

I don't know.

You tell me.

Let's end this on a high note, huh?

Yo, Lonnie.

What happened?

The wolf!

All the evidence you're gonna need is in the trunk of his car.

You trying to take my job, Spider-Man?

Hey, you guys are the professionals.

I'm just a volunteer.

It's a new New York.

Thanks to Spider-Man, crime rates have dropped to a record low.

Police and damage control give much of the credit to the masked hero.

Initiate HUD test.

Armed robbery at Civic Union Bank.

In the past six months, he has taken down every major crime lord across the five

boroughs, including the super-powered ninja group, The Hand.

He is the pride of New York City, the hero every

grown-up relies on and every kid wants to be.

Final semester at MIT.

Oh my gosh, we're graduating in a month.

We've made so many memories.

Where do I begin?

Night swimming in the Charles River with Jim and Wiley.

The infamous food fight at the Banana Lounge.

Pulling all-nighters in Stud 5 with MJ and Nate Doe.

It feels like yesterday I was sitting on a roof with MJ, dreaming about coming here

together, and I still can't believe we did it.

I'm so grateful for all the friends that I've made.

I couldn't imagine going through this with anyone else.

Dad, who do you think is actually watching this?

Uh, I don't know.

Maybe someone.

Well, bye, someone.

What?

Bye, we're done.

No!

I mean, we're talking about downtown Brooklyn in broad daylight.

High-profile job like that, you know that Fazl was involved.

Yeah, I hear you, but can you prove it?

Yeah, I'm going through his financial records and I'm following his crew every night.

Do you do anything besides work?

You know the saying, you do something you love and you don't work a day in your life.

Kidding me, is that?

Mom, where's my calculator?

I don't know.

Trust me, alright?

Being married to the job never ends well.

Don't worry about it, I'll be okay.

Oh, yeah?

You still getting them headaches, though?

Uh, yeah, but I'll be fine.

I don't know, man.

I think your body's trying to tell you something.

Like, you need to get out of that suit every once in a while.

Mom, do you know where my calculator is?

I don't know, puppy.

What you need is some real human connection.

Oh, what, and we're not connecting?

Nah, dude.

I don't know your name, your face, or nothing about you.

I don't think you've ever asked me a question about my life.

Sure I have.

Yeah, what are my kids' names?

Uh, well, for starters, your son's name's Poppy.

Is it Spider-Man?

I can't tell you that, sweetheart.

That means it's Spider-Man?

Oh, gosh.

A hijacked tank is heading south about past 34th Street.

All available units respond.

Hey, you getting this?

More work.

Lucky you.

Okay, I'll see you out there.

I'm so sorry.

I gotta go.

Whoa!

I got you, Spidey!

No, no, I don't need you.

You okay, kid?

Yeah, you're okay.

See you later!

You wouldn't know it just by looking at it, but this very

street was completely destroyed in the Battle of New Orleans.

No!

Come on, come on!

Oh, God!

What the hell, Frank?

You just hit me with a van!

Quit your whimpering.

We're not doing that again, Frank.

You goddamn right we're not.

This time you're gonna get the hell out of my way.

What, you mean instead of saving your life?

Are you gonna talk about that Staten Island bullshit again?

No, well, you said it, not me.

Look, man, you can't just shoot yourself out of every situation.

Innocent people get hurt.

What do you think's downranging that tank, dumb-dumb?

Ha ha ha ha!

Shoot yourself!

Jackass!

This frickin' guy!

I'm gonna kill this kid.

DeWolf, you gonna stop that thing or what?

It's heading straight for the Damage Control Detention Center.

I'm trying!

Try harder.

There's a lot of scary dudes locked up in there.

Well, who do you think put them in there?

Let's go, Scorpion.

Moving day.

Alright, everybody, clear out!

This guy is armed and dangerous!

Uh, get out of the vehicle, ma'am.

I was thinking the same thing.

Spider-Man?

Where am I?

What the?

Keep her for questioning.

Clear the building.

Enjoy the ride, Scorpion!

You won't be seeing much daylight in Supermax.

Scorpions are nocturnal, buddy!

The building is under attack!

Get some prisoner out of here, now!

You gotta take off now!

The building has been breached!

Go!

Go!

Alright, fire it up!

Go!

Go!

Change of plans!

Take him to the helipad at Bellevue!

What?

That's an order!

From direct to Metzger!

Go!

Now!

Copy that!

How do I get up here?

Spider-Man!

Save me, would you?

Who are you?

You can see me.

Tell me who you are.

You first.

Hey.

Ah!

You pushed me out.

Interesting.

What the hell was that?

Did you just try to jump into my mind?

You know, the whole time you've been chasing me, you

forgot to ask yourself a very important question.

What's in the tank?

Spider-Man?

What just happened?

I don't know.

Hey, good job.

You guys okay?

You good?

I swear, all the things I said I did, I don't remember doing anything.

It's okay.

It's okay.

Look, let these people take good care of you.

I would never hurt you.

Okay.

I love you, Spider-Man.

Yeah.

Alright, buddy.

Alright.

Hey, what do you got?

Here, get this.

Chopper took Scorpion to Bellevue.

Ten minutes later, a guard walked him right out the door.

What?

What about the tank?

Stolen from the damage control warehouse in Brooklyn.

Driver was a janitor who worked there.

You got a motive?

Nada.

And no criminal record.

Scorpion must have gotten to her somehow.

Yeah, maybe.

What do you mean, maybe?

I mean, I don't know.

But I know someone that might.

Where are you going?

You keep following the leads on Scorpion.

I'm gonna go talk to someone.

Hi, is this 3250 Brighton Beach?

Okay.

I think I know what that means.

Take off your clothes.

Uh, what?

You don't wear clothes in the banya.

Ditch the leotard.

This is not a leotard.

Your tech said that this was your office.

This is my office.

Get in.

I'm fine, thanks.

I'll just... My office, my rules.

This way you get to enjoy a nice relaxing soak.

And I get to see that you don't have any weapons.

And we both win.

Okay.

Really?

But you never take that off?

No, you know, it defeats the whole anonymous thing.

Even for your girlfriend, or boyfriend, or whatever.

There's a lot of conjecture involved.

And super graphic artwork.

Have you seen?

The one with you and the ten mysterious...

I've seen it.

It's hard to unsee to be honest.

But look, I don't have anyone.

I just kind of keep to myself.

All by yourself?

All the time?

No wonder you're so sad.

I'm not so sad.

A little bit.

Could we just talk about what I came here to

talk to you about the attack on damage control?

Yes.

So that is more your area.

Like small potato stuff.

Whereas the new Avengers are focusing on big potato stuff.

Right.

Okay.

Well, there's more to it than that.

You know, the driver and the others who were helping...

It was like someone was talking to me through them.

Like someone was looking at me through their eyes.

And you're wondering if it's mind control?

Exactly.

Like how they used on me in the red room.

Exactly.

And the other weirdos.

Right.

Right.

No, I don't think so.

I actually think it's probably more like possession.

Possession?

Like a ghost.

Or a demon.

Or in Russia we have Leshy.

Leshy rules the forest and can possess...

Sorry.

Whatever it is, they're looking for something.

This is the fourth attack on the damage control facility this month.

And what do you think they're looking for?

I don't know.

But you know what?

After the attack today, there was a cross

agency cyber security alert that got triggered.

Someone accessed the damage control restricted servers

using credentials from 30 employees from the way station.

They all searched for the same thing.

VMAX.

VMAX?

Well, what does that mean?

I mean, it could be alien tech.

Or secretive weapon programs.

Or launch codes.

Or... I don't know.

This is for you to figure out.

This is small baby potato stuff.

Not big potato brain stuff.

Geez.

Maybe I'll just go ask damage control myself.

You know, you're not completely anonymous anymore.

I've seen your belly button.

Okay.

Bye.

Hi, I got an appointment with... Director Metzger, yes.

Please step through the scanner.

Enhanced human detected.

Superior strength.

Superior agility.

Heightened senses.

Exogenous DNA.

Arapnid.

Please remove your face covering for identity scan.

Oh, no, I can't do that.

That's not possible.

Failure to remove your face covering will result in defensive measures.

Defensive measures?

What are you... Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

Guys, guys, guys!

I can't take my mask off.

I'm spi... Spider-Man!

He's all right.

At ease.

My apologies.

We are so glad you're here.

Phil Metzger, Director of Damage Control.

How are you?

I'm good, thank you.

We had to beef up security around here, but I hope we didn't give you a fright.

No, not at all.

All right, come on this way.

This floor is mostly research and administrative.

Downstairs we have incident cleanup, laboratories, agent training.

Hey, what are they doing here?

It's okay.

The hand works for us now.

After you brought them in, I realized that

fundamentally they're a group of kids without a leader.

All they needed was a little direction.

And suddenly all the things that made them dangerous

turned them into an invaluable part of our security team.

You guys are my pride.

You can look at the many threats that face us and see only danger.

Or you can see opportunity.

Uh, okay.

Wow, look at that.

In the hands of shocker, these are a nuisance.

But it doesn't mean we can't learn from the technology or respect the innovation.

Our mission is to redirect destructive energy into something useful.

That's the true meaning of damage control.

Be careful with that.

Right this way.

I wanted to talk to you about the recent attacks on the agency.

There's been four, right?

Please, have a seat.

You are right.

It appears we're faced with a threat we can't control.

One we can't even see.

But you can.

I saw the security footage.

I also read Detective DeWolf's report.

I believe you understand exactly what we're up against.

Not someone or something that can hop into people's minds.

But not yours?

No.

I mean, it tried, but it couldn't.

I'm gonna be honest with you.

We're on our heels right now.

God forbid if we were to get in here and find whatever it is

it's looking for, the consequences could be... unimaginable.

Well, let me guess.

Is whatever it's looking for in that giant vault?

There are some things because of the nature of my job I cannot tell you.

But I believe you are our best defense against this.

You're the only one who can sense it.

You're the only one who's immune to it.

I'm counting on you to defeat it.

That's pretty good speech, Director.

I'll do everything that I can, I promise.

Well, then consider yourself a friend of Damage Control.

Thank you.

I'll be in touch.

Oh, I wanted to ask...

The phrase VMAX doesn't mean anything to you, does it?

No.

Where'd you hear that?

Oh, it's just, you know...

The nature of being a superhero, there are some things I just can't tell you.

Anyway, I'll see you later.

You guys are doing great.

Keep it up.

I don't think Metzger knows any more than we do,

but I told him I'd do whatever I can to help.

You want to help?

The best thing you could do is find Scorpion.

He's our only lead.

Yeah, I know.

I have every camera in the city running a facial recognition scan for him.

That sounds super illegal, Spider-Man.

I'm gonna pretend I didn't hear that.

Yeah, probably for the best.

But look, if he shows his face, we'll know.

Do you have any minicags?

Done on the end.

Thanks.

I'll call you back.

Uh-huh.

Easy.

Hey, uh, also, you got any shark fire energy?

Yeah.

Oh, no, no, no.

I don't want any.

That stuff will kill you.

You know, all my friends were drinking them

during the finals, and now they're addicted.

So I'm gonna need you to not sell me any.

Memorize my face.

Please, do not sell this guy any shark fire.

Sure.

Whatever.

Actually, I'll take one.

Last one.

Maybe two.

And then never sell me any.

Damn it.

Yo, Ned!

Oh, shoot.

God, I appreciate you.

What's up with you, man?

What's up with you?

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

See, you've stumbled across my board.

I'm not one of those weirdos, I swear.

He actually saved me and my friends' lives a few times in high school.

Oh, cool.

Yeah, yeah.

Ever since, I've just been trying to... figure out who he is.

Not to unmask him to the world or anything, just to... No.

You know?

And then to hopefully thank him face-to-face.

I actually created this app that monitors his sightings.

Wait, you created Spidey Tracker?

He heard of it.

Nice.

Where is Sweaterman?

Little chat room right there.

Now, we know he's definitely from Queens.

Not the biggest revelation.

But I have been able to narrow it down to two prime suspects.

Yeah.

If you knew who they were, it wouldn't really blow your mind.

I'm sure.

Ned, by the way.

Oh, I'm, um... God, there's like 50 people in our apartment.

Statistically speaking, that means at least two of them are sociopaths.

Which is kind of cool.

Nice flowers.

What's that?

Oh, they're a housewarming gift.

Really?

Yeah.

Oh, okay.

Most people just brought beer and chips.

It's very nice.

I'm MJ.

I'm, uh...

Maynard.

Maynard.

Oh, you two don't know each other?

No, I'm a neighbor.

Friendly neighbor?

Sorry.

So, how was the interview?

I'm gonna go put these in water.

It was nice to meet you, Maynard.

Nerd.

Maynard.

Yeah.

Did you go?

Please tell me that you went.

Yeah, no, I went.

And?

And I got the job.

Oh my god, MJ, that's amazing!

I turned it down.

What?

Yeah, I don't want to work for some soulless corporation.

They're not all soulless.

Okay, they're all mostly soulless.

But don't you want, like, health insurance?

Yeah, of course I do, but at what cost?

Depends on your deductible.

Oh, you mean like your principles.

Yes.

Sorry.

I don't know, I know it sounds cheesy, but something is just

telling me that I'm supposed to be waiting for something.

Great, you know?

Okay.

To, uh... waiting for something great.

To waiting for something great.

Well, the wait is over.

Oh!

Your new home.

Dude, this is top shelf!

Just like you.

I want to hide this.

I'll lift it this often again.

But what if Ned needs the fire of a thousand sharks?

You mean heart palpitations.

You can't save everyone.

I can try.

That's my girl.

I'm sorry.

I know.

When we get into MIT, we should lift together.

Yeah, for sure.

Yeah, I'd love that.

It'll be a fresh start.

We'll all be together.

Yeah, no, you're right.

Yeah, fresh start.

You're gonna forget who I am.

Forget who you are?

What are you talking about?

It's okay.

I'm gonna come and find you.

And I'll explain everything.

But I want sweet...

Wait, tell me.

Will you see me again?

My name is Peter Parker.

And I... would like a coffee.

Is there anything else?

No.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

You think you don't have to listen to me now that I've got power?

You know, this whole thing can get really scary.

You know that?

Yeah, it's already pretty scary.

Yeah.

And things can change very quickly.

Ways that we can't even imagine right now.

Believe me, I know.

I don't think you do know.

What do you mean?

Oh, God!

Oh!

I, uh... I live here.

I just, um...

I'm gonna grab my stuff.

Is that my shirt?

No.

Oh, cute dog.

Oh!

Hi, Peter.

You have 107 new alerts.

Please check backlog.

What... is happening?

The results of your body scan show a surge in the hormones associated with your

arachnid DNA, resulting in the formation of organic web

spinnerets and dangerously heightened sensory receptors.

Okay, but I feel fine.

Prolonged isolation or emotional trauma could be contributing to this sudden change.

Have you experienced any recent traumatic events?

Peter?

I'm fine, Evie.

You don't seem fine.

I recommend you take some time to rebalance.

Well, that's not really an option, is it?

Mechanical web shooters and organic webs cannot be used simultaneously.

Come on, Peter.

Alert!

Sensors are overloaded.

Alert!

Sensors are overloaded.

Alert!

Sensors are overloaded.

What the hell was that?

Your heightened senses are taking in too much information at once.

Okay.

It's okay.

Alright, organic webs.

Peter too had them.

He was cool.

You're cool.

Oh my god, that's hideous.

Okay, here we go.

Okay, that didn't work.

Organic webs.

Come on, and web!

What's going on, Evie?

Shots fired at the Damage Control Data Center in Manhattan.

Suspect facial match with Scorpion.

Okay, I'm on my way.

Come on, three, two, web stop!

Web stop.

Web stop!

Web stop!

Web stop!

Oh god!

Web stop!

I don't know what you're looking for.

I'm looking for VMAX.

I don't know anything.

I'll see for myself.

I'm sorry, I'm late.

I've had a really crazy day.

Scorpion, do we really gotta keep doing this?

My head is killing me.

You think I'm Scorpion?

What's happening to you?

You can't sense me anymore.

You!

What's going on with you, Spider-Man?

Warning!

Arachnid hormones increasing.

We need some help over here!

Spider-Man... What the hell?

Somebody get a medic!

The wolf, is she hurt?

Is she okay?

Is she okay?

No!

Just let me go!

What is going on over there?

That wasn't Scorpion, okay?

I mean, it was, but... I'm possessed by whatever.

Hijack that tank, okay?

Look, please, can I just... Slow down.

Listen, I don't know what this is, but I need you to pull it together.

You almost killed a cop.

This isn't you.

I know, I'm sorry.

If you act like this again, I cannot protect you.

Whatever this is, you need to fix it.

Through lattice chromodynamics, we can arrange time and space in a grid,

which allows us to simulate the quarks binding into the protons.

Cindy, is this a question about protons or more stuff about Avengers?

Okay.

Guys, I love to tell stories, but you know,

I gotta teach you some physics at some point.

Oh, yeah.

Alright, let it rip, Cindy.

If Thanos was so worried about overpopulation, why

didn't he just use the magic glove to make more food?

Arthur, you want to answer that question?

Hulk!

Excuse me, Dr. Banner?

I, um...

You okay?

Yeah, sorry.

It's just a headache.

Um, have you got a minute?

I wanted to talk to you about your inhibitor.

Oh, sure.

Don't worry.

It's got fail-safes.

I'm not gonna turn into the big green raging monster machine in the cafeteria.

But if you do see me let this thing off, run.

No, but you're using target-specific short-interfering RNA, right?

It's like gene silencing.

You're just incorporating the gamma radiation.

What'd you say your name was?

Uh, Ned.

Leeds.

So you found a way to suppress the expression of DNA, even as it's undergoing

the mutation due to gamma radiation, right?

Yes.

Okay, so my question is, would that same thing be

possible with DNA that's mutating for another reason?

What's a reason?

I don't know.

Uh, let's say that the host genome is mixed with some kind of foreign DNA.

Theoretically.

Theoretically, yes, that's possible.

Yes.

So could you suppress only some parts of that DNA expression,

like the bad aspects, but just keep all the good stuff?

You mean, like, if I wanted to keep some parts of Hulk but not others?

Right.

It would be enormously dangerous and complex, but if you

were able to target the correct mRNA strand, possibly.

Wait, so you could just turn the mutating gene on and

off as long as you do it before the mRNA transcription?

Maybe.

I mean, if you apply the same thinking, you could even develop some kind of

automatic inhibitor that would just adjust to any type of mutation.

Well, now you're talking about a universal inhibitor

that would control anyone who has any powers.

It's a dangerous idea.

Yeah, but it's theoretical, right?

You're not one of my students, are you?

No, I'm a grad student.

I've, uh, I've taken enough of your time.

I gotta get some books back to the library.

The library's that way.

Right.

Right.

How would you decide?

What's that?

Well, what parts of nature were good or bad?

What if you're trying to control the expression

of something that needs to be expressed?

Good luck with your studies, Ned.

Thank you, Professor.

Like reptiles and lilies and panther food,

spiders shed skin at key points in their life.

The process is known as mold.

Fourth inhibitor prototype complete.

Upload inhibitor beta build seven.

Uploaded.

Would you like to run a test?

Yeah, run it.

Spiders have three stages in their life cycle.

Each stage is characterized by physical changes, with the largest changes

occurring during the beautiful transition to adulthood.

For those who make it through, molting amounts to a kind of...

Can you turn that spider stuff off?

Turning off video.

Inhibitor active.

Okay, here we go.

Come on.

Come on.

Keep an eye on my vitals.

Inhibitor engaged.

Suppressing arachnid hormones to your baseline levels.

Okay.

Alright, Evie.

Let's do this.

Initiating field test one.

That's working.

Alert.

Inhibitor is overheating.

Functionality reducing.

Yeah, I'm sensing that.

Alert.

Sensors are overloaded.

Alert.

Sensors are overloaded.

Web grenades activated.

Oh, shit!

Inhibitor field test one.

Failure.

Yo, Spider-Man.

You okay?

Yeah, I'm just trying out some new tech.

Oh, yeah.

To get rid of that monster inside you?

Still can't sense me, huh?

Guess your technology isn't working.

You know, you're the only person I've met that I can't hop into.

I'm sure that's really frustrating for you.

Well, I'll get in there one day.

What do you want?

I don't know why a half-human, half-spider would decide to work for an

organization whose one mission is to hunt down anybody who's different.

Damage control isn't after you because you're different.

They're hunting you down because you're dangerous.

Now, what do you want?

Since you're a very simple spider, let me spell it out for you.

Damage control has something that I need.

Oh, you mean VMAX?

I was planning to use Scorpion to get it, but you keep getting in my way.

I will always be in your way.

Oh, you sure about that, Peter Parker?

You know, your apartment is kind of like a parody of where

you think a sad single guy in his twenties might live.

Take-out containers, free weights, protein powder?

You're bluffing.

You know, you're not hard to track down, Peter.

Well, at least not for someone like me.

I did find one interesting thing, though.

And of all places...

...a coffee cup.

EV display home workstation?

You spent four years erasing Peter Parker from existence?

No wonder the spider's trying to swallow up the man.

I wonder if MJ would even recognize you.

I think I might go see how she's doing.

I'm not gonna let that happen.

No?

Her roommate was nice enough to post a new address online.

How about this?

I'll race you there.

If you touch her, better start swinging.

I'm fast.

Hey!

It's a long way to MJ's.

You better pick up the pace.

Evie, track physical anomalies.

Searching for physical anomalies between subjects.

Please stand by.

Thank you all so much for coming today.

I'm sorry about that.

Give it up for Spider-Man.

In a race for the love of his life, and it's not looking good.

Come on, Spidey.

Keep up.

Excuse me.

Sorry.

Evie, run these numbers with the others.

Analyzing jump distances for patterns.

Give me that jump data!

Calculating.

Come on,

I need an answer!

Calculations complete.

You have a limit to your jump radius, don't you?

33 feet.

I don't see anybody up here for you to hop into.

Very clever.

Like I said, you're not getting near her.

Hey, hey, hey!

I'm sorry, but you're in danger.

Where's your roommate?

What?

Where's Ned?

Uh, in Boston with friends?

Why?

Okay, good.

You gotta come with me.

What?

I don't know if you're the real Spider-Man or I'm coming with you.

We don't have time for this.

Please, come on.

You need to get out of my apartment.

Look, this is gonna sound insane, but there is someone

who is after you who is really dangerous, okay?

And I promised you that I would keep you safe.

Please, you just have to trust me.

Come on.

Fine.

Where would you stop?

Where would you stop?

Are you okay?

Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.

Okay.

Well, we should be safe up here.

Okay, well safe from what?

Uh, I'm not entirely sure.

Okay, well what do they want with me?

I don't know.

You don't know?

It doesn't make any sense.

Why would they choose me?

Um, I wish I could tell you.

I just...

We knew each other, didn't we?

What?

That's the only explanation.

It's been driving me crazy for years.

All the times that Spider-Man saved either me or Ned.

It was the Washington Monument and then it was London and Prague and the Night Monkey.

I mean, twice is a coincidence, but over and over again.

We knew each other.

Tell me I'm wrong.

You're wrong.

What were we?

Were we classmates or friends or something?

Look, I don't know what you're talking about.

Were we something more?

I just, I can't... I can't remember and I feel like someone

scrambled my brain and you're the only one who would know why.

This is crazy.

I can't... I know that you can't tell me the truth.

But I need to know.

Maybe there's a part of me that still remembers.

I missed you so much.

I can't believe you figured it out.

I did.

Go ahead, Peter.

Touch her.

Hold her.

You've been wanting to for so long.

True love's kiss breaks the spell and reunites the star-crossed lovers.

I'm Jayward Vomit.

You really are a simple spider, aren't you?

I see why you like her.

She's, uh... she's smart.

Funny.

A little dark and twisted.

I mean, it is sad.

There is, like, no thoughts of you in here.

Whatsoever.

But you knew that, didn't you?

You're a monster.

If you loved someone the way that I love her, then you'd

know that what you're doing right now is unforgivable.

Oh, is that so?

You know, some people would kill to hold the person they love one last time.

Stop it.

Now.

You're running out of time, Peter.

Soon enough, it won't just be your friends who don't remember Peter Parker.

Maybe you should write a letter to yourself.

Get out of her.

Who's the monster now, Peter?

Oh!

MJ!

MJ!

No, no, no.

Oh, God.

Oh, God, please, no.

Come on.

Come on, come on, come on.

Oh, I'm so sorry.

Stop!

Wait, wait, stop, stop, please!

Oh, quit!

You win, you win, you win!

Just don't hurt her!

You're a mess, Spider-Man.

Anytime I want.

I can be anyone I want.

So you can't protect MJ.

Even from herself.

It really is a nice letter.

A little heavy-handed.

I'm not bad.

You're okay.

I'm gonna take you someplace safe.

Take me to 3165.

Lafayette Street.

Navigating to Empire State University.

I got you, I got you.

You sure?

Yep.

Okay, because I feel like I'm slipping a little bit.

You're not slipping.

Okay.

You're okay.

You're okay.

You're okay.

You're okay.

No, no, no.

I'm fine.

I'm fine.

Okay, can we just slow down for like two seconds, please?

We're almost there.

Yeah, yeah, but you just told me I was mind controlled.

Well, not technically.

And you're lucky I believe in that stuff, okay?

Because governments have been doing it for years, especially the French.

Are you okay?

Yeah, look, sorry.

I'm just trying to take you someplace safe, okay?

I don't feel safe.

Oh, my God!

You're losing it, kid.

I thought you'd be able to see that coming a mile away.

What is wrong with you?

You could have killed us.

Excuse me.

You show up to my house unannounced.

What do you think's gonna happen?

Wait, this is your house?

No, don't, don't, don't.

Who the hell is that?

Who the hell are you?

Well, uh, she's, um, uh, you know.

No, I don't know.

It's why I just asked you.

She's in danger, Frank.

Look, I need your help, okay?

Yeah, it looks like it.

Well, come on, you owe me.

Ah, for Christ.

Aren't you sick of this story?

Staten Island.

Nah, Staten Island.

What more do you want me to do?

I literally saved your life.

You're out of your mind, kid.

Are you gonna save it twice to get a favor out of you?

That guy could hit me with a handful of rice.

What does that sound like to you?

I had him exactly where I wanted him.

I see him right there.

I know exactly what I'm talking to you for.

Kick that drug dealer back into his storage room.

Okay, fine.

Go ahead.

What would you call that?

What does that sound like to you?

I don't care.

I just want to go home.

That's an excellent idea.

Kick rocks.

Go home.

No, no, wait, wait, wait.

Frank, Frank, Frank, Frank, Frank.

Wait.

Please.

Hey, I've got to keep her safe, okay?

And I don't have anywhere else to go.

You like chili?

I made chili.

All right, just watch out for the claymores.

I'm gonna pick up pieces of you for the next two weeks.

Hey, I definitely would not eat that chili.

See, you're telling me that maniac behind all that

tank nonsense is nothing but a goddamn teenager.

And it's not just the tank.

It's every attack on damage control this past month.

How does a kid learn how to drive a tank?

I don't know, Frank.

Beat your ass all over the street like that.

She did not beat my ass.

Is this your family?

Why don't you get the hell away from that?

Look, I got one rule in this house.

You don't touch anything.

You don't move anything.

You sure as shit don't ask me any goddamn questions about anything.

So three rules.

Ask you why you like her.

I'm gonna go put some pants on.

Don't touch the chili.

I like him.

Of course you do.

So I managed to pull this image from my HUD and run it through the system.

Who is she?

Until a couple months ago, nobody.

She was in and out of foster care, psych hospitals, and

then eventually she ran away and dropped off the grid.

There's hardly any information about her that hasn't

been scrubbed, but she's classified as a telepath.

And now we have a name.

Jean Grey.

Yeah.

These are the damage control sites that she hasn't hit yet.

So if she surfaces, then my facial tracking program will pick her up.

Right.

Oh, yeah.

What then?

Well, don't worry about what then.

Just look after her.

Don't worry about it, huh?

I'm just supposed to sit here and babysit your girlfriend?

I don't want to be babysat.

She's not my girlfriend.

All right.

Look, what's the plan, huh?

I'm just gonna hope that your facial tracking program works.

You get yourself killed, I gotta watch her the rest of my life.

I'm not gonna get killed, Frank.

I can catch her, okay?

I just have to fix my inhibitor and then I'll be good to go.

What do you need to do that?

Frank, you do not have what I need to do that, okay?

You've got some mouth on you.

What, do you think you have an anti-static mat, a total probe and micro tools?

I got all that shit.

What for?

Bombs.

Bingo.

Unbelievable.

Hey, do you think it's safe to maybe call someone and let them know I'm okay?

Uh, like your boyfriend?

No, like my roommate.

Oh, um... I don't think that's such a good idea, you know?

Because she already knows who he is and she can inhabit anyone she wants, so...

Right, yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're right.

Sorry.

No, it's fine.

I totally get it.

Like all my boyfriend, he'd just ask me a bunch of questions that I couldn't answer

and then... He'd tell me I was being withholding again.

Withholding?

Yep.

Sounds like your boyfriend's kind of a jerk.

Why do you think you're withholding?

I don't know.

He'd tell me mass vigilante behind the curtain.

Um, okay, I see your point.

So what about you?

What about me?

Well, do you have a Mrs. Spider-Man?

Do I have a Mrs. Spider-Man?

Um...

No.

No.

Why not?

Why not?

Because, um...

I'm too withholding, obviously.

Welcome to the club.

There was someone.

Really?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

What happened?

I, uh... I had to let her go.

To keep her safe.

I'm sorry, that must have been really hard for you.

Yeah, it was, yeah.

It is.

It is really hard.

Oh!

Are you okay?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm okay.

I, uh... You know what?

I'm just gonna come over... Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on.

What's going on?

Um, it just keeps overheating on me.

It's been stumping me for days.

Before I switched to aerospace, I was gonna major in biochemical engineering, so...

Do you mind if I... Oh, yeah, for sure.

Here.

There you go.

Wow.

So, does the device itself...

I mean, does it generate any kind of radiation or a magnetic field?

Because that would definitely interfere.

Well, yeah, it has a micro-magnetic field, but I accounted for that in the design.

Okay, well, what about your suit?

Oh, it actually dissipates into the fabric, which is pretty cool.

Okay.

What about those?

What about what?

Your goggles.

Or whatever you call them.

Uh, they would create a field.

It would be tiny, but... But it's on your head, which is very close to the inhibitor.

Which is probably why it's overheating.

Oh, MJ, that is genius.

Okay, this has to work.

Inhibitor engaged.

Suppressing selected arachnid hormones.

Okay, that feels better.

That feels totally better.

Oh, my head feels so clear.

And I'm not shooting organic webs.

Oh, my God, MJ, that, like, totally worked.

You know, this is some really intense stuff you're working on here.

Well, yeah, it's really important.

Yeah, but this is, like... I mean, this is, like, altering your DNA.

I mean, this is the kind of stuff you put on, like, I don't know, like a monster.

Well, if you see what's been happening to me over

the last couple days, then you might understand.

Yeah, well, I've been with you for the last few hours, and that's not what I've seen.

And what have you seen?

From my side to the curtain.

A really good guy who might just be changing.

Well, I don't mean to overstep.

I'll, uh, let you get back to it.

Can't sleep either, huh?

You want coffee?

Sure.

You get your shit fixed?

Yeah, I've been wearing it all night.

So far, so good.

I made this other one universal, so if I could get it

on Jean, it should completely shut down her powers.

You know what else will work?

You just shoot her.

Nice.

Jesus Christ.

That's got to be the goofiest shit I've ever seen in my life.

Well, you can't even take the mask off.

Drink a cup of coffee.

Don't take it personally, Frank.

It stays on for everybody.

Even her.

Who is she, kid?

I don't know.

That's horseshit.

Who is she?

I'm telling you, I don't know who she is.

What are you doing?

You care about her.

You've been heading not too far.

I don't care about her.

Look, I don't know who she is, Frank, okay?

I don't have anybody.

I'm like you.

I just keep to myself.

You're like me.

What do you know about me, kid?

You think this is a choice?

Living like this?

It's a lifestyle?

Is that what you think?

Kid, this is a sentence.

Now, if I had one second, people I love were still breathing.

You think I'd be hiding behind a mask?

You think I'd pretend to be something that I'm not?

Acting like a goddamn coward?

I got a facial match.

She's at the damage control HQ in Manhattan.

I gotta go.

I'm okay.

She's gonna be okay.

I'll see to it.

Thanks, Frank.

Hey.

Hey.

You're just gonna let him go by himself?

You know, I think he might need you.

Eh... Kinda like you needed him on Staten Island.

You can't hide from me forever, Bill.

You've got a strong door, but it's the wall you have to worry about.

Who are you and what do you want?

I'm Gina Grey.

And you know what I want.

Okay, watch out.

I'm about to move it through

my...

Gene?

You looked me up.

I'm blushing.

I told you what would happen to your girl if you got in my way.

You're not getting near her again.

And you're definitely not getting inside that vault.

Maybe not.

But this guy might.

Gene, you don't know what you're dealing with.

You know, you and Banner have a lot in common.

Both fighting a losing battle against the monster that lives inside you.

Gene, this is the Hulk you can't def- What the hell?

Oh, I see.

Trying to muzzle me like you muzzle yourself?

I can't let you in there.

Whatever VMAX is, you're not getting it.

Like hell I'm not.

Gene, don't do this.

Save your breath.

What are you doing here?

Think I'm doing, I'm shaving your ass.

This is way above your pay grade, dude.

We're fighting the Hulk.

Really?

Get out!

Stop shooting him!

You're out of your goddamn mind!

Hey, Banner's not the problem, she is!

I thought I told you to stay home and watch MJ.

Yeah, you did.

You're gonna lose.

And then she tells me I gotta come watch you.

Wait, did she actually say that to you?

Are you blushing, Daffodil?

Not blushing.

God damn it.

I knew I should have brought a bigger gun.

That's a good idea.

Bring a bigger gun.

What are you gonna do, tickle him to death?

No, look, change your plan.

First we get this on the Hulk, then we go after Gene.

I got one better.

That's the highest casualty-producing threat.

You contain it, I go find the source, I take it down.

You got it?

Are you just trying to get out of fighting the Hulk?

I guess so.

Okay, whatever, dude.

I got this.

Frank, Frank, Frank, Frank!

What?

Do not kill her!

Don't start with that self-serve bullshit.

You know something, I'm gonna do this, I'm gonna do it my way.

Just go!

Just go!

Don't get within 33 feet!

Yeah!

So frustrating!

Hey.

Whoa.

This guy's got issues.

Oh, no.

No, not again.

Oh, no.

Dr. Banner?

Is that you?

Spider-Man, what happened?

Where am I?

Hey, hey, hey.

Did I do all this?

Did I hurt anyone?

It's not your fault.

She was in your mind.

You weren't in control.

I lost my inhibitor.

Look, here, here.

It's the only thing keeping the monster inside.

It's okay.

I got another one.

I just need you to put this on.

What is it?

It's universal.

It should work on you.

Please, sir, there's people in the building.

Just put it on.

You okay?

It's my head.

I think she broke something.

Is she still in there?

No.

It's the other guy.

Bruce?

Look, I could get you out of here, okay?

I just need you to put that inhibitor on.

Get away from me!

He's coming.

I can't get through.

Yes, you can, Bruce.

Yes, you can!

Get out of the building!

Get out of the building!

Get out of the building!

Banner, please.

Look at me.

No Banner.

No girl.

Only Hulk.

I didn't know you could get that big.

Whoa.

Good luck with that, Peter.

There you are.

Just hold still!

Just hold still!

No lethal rounds.

Tracking time to detonation.

Ninety seconds to detonation.

I know!

I know!

Why is your skin so thick?

Inhibitor cannot attack.

Please!

Bruce!

It's Peter!

I'm your friend.

Bruce!

Throw down your guns, or you'll get the next one in the head.

Where is she?

What did you... It's over, Gene.

Sarah... Is that my gun?

Does anyone hurt?

Is it just me?

Does anyone hurt?

Spider-Man!

You saved my life.

You saved God knows how many lives by making sure

she didn't find what she was looking for in there.

Before she passed out, she tried to say something.

A name, Sarah.

Does that mean something to you?

Before you got the inhibitor on her, she managed to get in my mind for a moment.

Sarah was the name of someone I worked closely with that recently passed.

I'm sorry to hear that.

Somehow, the memory of Sarah must have affected her.

Well, I'd love to talk to her when she wakes up, if that's alright.

Of course.

She'll be transferred to our facility on Roosevelt Island.

I'm just as eager to get her talking as you are.

But let's not strain her too much in one day.

Yeah, of course.

Thank you, Spider-Man.

My pleasure.

MJ!

It worked!

She's in custody.

You're safe now.

You left this?

Did you want me to find it?

No.

No.

Um... Look, I can explain...

Can you take that off, please?

What?

The mask.

I think I deserve to have this conversation with Peter Parker.

He came to the party at our apartment the other night.

In the donut shop.

The year I went off to school.

Why didn't you tell me then?

I was trying to protect you.

I've almost been killed like five times in the past

24 hours, so it's not really working that well.

I know.

I'm sorry.

I... Were you ever gonna tell me?

Right?

So you just were gonna make that decision for me?

I know.

I'm sorry.

I don't really need you to keep saying that you're sorry.

I don't know what you want me to tell you.

I want you to tell me why you would do this to me.

I lost someone.

And they'd still be here if it wasn't for me.

I didn't read you that letter because...

I didn't want anything like that to happen to you.

But that's not really your decision.

I know it's not, but...

You mean everything to me.

And I've been trying to live my life without you, but I... I can't.

I love you.

This spell, or whatever it is that you did...

It worked.

All these memories that you're saying that we have together, I don't...

I don't have them.

And I do see why, you know, she would love

you, the girl you wrote that letter to, but...

I understand... That you did what you had to do to protect her.

And for that, I'm so grateful.

But I... I don't love you.

Because I don't... I don't even know you.

I should probably go now.

I really am sorry, Peter.

I don't have a phone.

Do you mind taking me home?

Yeah, of course.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Yeah, sure.

I'm gonna... Yeah, yeah, yeah, of course.

Do you want to come up?

Just to say hi to Ned, maybe?

I would love that.

The Hulk, aka Dr. Bruce Banner, is in custody,

currently being transferred to a psychiatric ward.

Oh, so sad.

After years as a peaceful academic, the question the world asked today is,

what finally snapped?

Hey, I'm nearby.

Hey, I'm nearby.

Andrew?

Hey, I'm nearby.

You're not gonna believe this, but the Spidey Tracker

app says that Spider-Man is in the direct vicinity.

Oh yeah?

No way, that's crazy.

Ned, Spider-Man, Spider-Man, Ned.

It's nice to meet you, Ned.

Hello.

I'm not like a weirdo or anything.

He's a little weird.

Why... why are you here?

Oh, I... I was on the subway platform.

Platform, right, and she was on her phone.

I got a little distracted and the train was coming.

And I just swooped a ride up.

Yeah, saved it there.

Oh my god.

Why has that never happened to me?

So what if you're mid-swing and you decide you need to pee?

Do you just land on top of a building?

What?

Do you drop down to a ground level and run into a coffee

shop and you're like, Hey, it's Spider-Man, I need to pee.

Or do you find a rooftop somewhere?

No, I don't find a rooftop somewhere, Ned.

Is this really what you want to be asking him right now?

Dude, come on, you can ask me anything.

You want to know how my web shooters work?

I mean, I already know how the web shooters work.

Is that right?

Well, there's obviously some sort of shear thinning fluid that is cycling within a

chamber, right, so it can keep its liquid form.

And then when you activate it by pressing all the triggers, it runs through a Teflon

turbine and then it hardens when it interacts with the air.

Right?

I mean, not exactly, but... Okay, okay, well then tell me what's in the web fluid.

I would guess something like a long chain polymer.

Nylon?

That's pretty close.

Okay, okay, what about Nomex or... Oh, Kevlar!

All right then, keep your secrets.

If you're referring to the incident with the dragon, I was barely involved.

All I did was simply give your uncle a little nudge out the door.

Solid reference.

Ooh, banh mi time!

You ordered banh mi's?

I ordered five banh mi's.

We have Spider-Man in the apartment.

He's gonna get fed.

Sorry about him, he's just like very excited that you're here.

Are you kidding?

It's like the most fun I've had in years.

I really miss you guys.

You guys really do look like best friends.

What do you mean?

You should tell him.

He can handle it.

Yeah, I know.

Um,

when she was inhabiting you on the rooftop, she kissed me and I kissed her back.

Because I thought it was you, but I didn't know.

And I'm really sorry.

I just thought you should know.

Thanks for telling me.

I mean, it's not like I remember anything anyway, so...

Really?

Yeah, it was weird.

It was like one second I was sitting at my desk

and the next second I was lying on the street.

I don't know, like a light switch went off.

What?

So you don't remember anything?

No, why?

Metzger said he remembered thinking about someone named Sarah, but what you're

saying is that you don't remember anything at all.

I mean, yeah, it was instantaneous.

That's what made it so scary.

He lied to me.

I heard you caught Leshy.

Yeah, her name's Jean Grey.

I need some help determining the size of some potatoes.

Potatoes?

I think that's Black Widow.

I think Metzger lied to me about a name.

Can you see if there's a connection between Jean and someone named Sarah?

Hmm, these potatoes sound bigger.

Oh wow, that really is your office.

Well, well, well.

Internet, government records, and a lot of data related

to Jean Grey has been scrubbed by damage control.

Data about what?

Her sister.

Wait, Jean has a sister?

Hmm, Sarah Grey.

Also a telepath, damage control took her into custody for study and observation.

Wow.

I mean, you can probably guess what they mean by that.

Experimentation and other human rights violations?

Yes, exactly.

Wait, who are you?

Hi, Ned Leeds.

Big fan.

Hi.

I'm sorry.

I'm just so happy that the sad man has friends.

Uh, thanks.

I owe you one.

Good luck, Spider-Man.

Bye.

She was just looking for her sister and I handed her to the people that took her.

I gotta go.

Hey, Peter.

You should be careful, all right?

Yeah, I will.

Spider-Man's name is Peter?

Jean, who do you want to be?

Her.

Pink jacket.

She's too far.

You're gonna have to hop.

Hop?

First, pick someone close.

And then...

Each hop has a limit, but you can string them together and go as far as you want.

And when you let go, you're right back where you started.

Could you do that to everyone in this park at once?

Yeah, maybe one day.

If you get really good.

Now, how could she just send us away?

She wasn't really a mom.

Not like that, anyway.

She was.

Before we changed.

Yeah, well, if that's all it takes for you

to stop being a mom, then you're not a mom.

What would you do if you had daughters like us?

I'd love them.

Especially the redhead one.

Shut up.

We have each other.

Do you have any ice cream?

One mint chip, one chocolate?

Yeah.

Get down!

Get down!

I'm sorry, Gene.

I have to keep you safe.

Subject is awake.

Heart rate is 94 BPM.

Gene, that's not gonna work anymore, thanks to Spider-Man.

Gene?

I need you to breathe.

I need you to look at me and breathe.

Okay?

You're safe.

Breathe.

Where is she?

Like your sister, you've been blessed with a power that has the potential to do

tremendous good in the world, or tremendous damage.

A power like yours in the hands of a child is an impossible burden.

But imagine if that power was placed in the hands

of people who actually know what to do with it.

Where is my sister?

You're gonna change the world, Gene.

Hey!

Hey!

Frank?

I know where you are, what you're doing.

Oh yeah, and how's that?

You got eyes everywhere, kid.

Look, Frank, Damage Control kidnapped Gene's sister.

Gene was just trying to find her.

We were wrong about everything.

Sentimental horse shit.

You see what she can do and what she's capable of.

What, you gonna let her loose?

Is that what you're gonna do?

Tell you right now, you do that, I handle it my way.

Frank, please, can you... Frank!

Distance check?

40 foot clearance.

Locking down the room?

Locking down.

Disengage inhibitor?

Gene, your powers are now fully operational.

As you can tell, we are beyond your jump radius.

Tell me what VMAX is.

You're the second person to ask me about that.

I... I have no idea what that means.

She sent me a message.

She was trying to help me find her.

She communicated with you telepathically across all that distance?

We did register a huge spike in that session.

Fascinating.

What does it mean, asshole?

I don't know.

Let's begin.

I work with Sarah centered on two areas, identifying the

source of her power and identifying a path towards copying it.

If we could find a way to record a telepathic brain during a jump,

then perhaps we could replicate those pathways in the mind of our choosing.

This instrument is your sister's legacy.

We built this together over many months of trial and error.

I hope you and I can honor her sacrifice.

What are you talking about?

Trigger the first jump.

Tell me what VMAX is.

I know that's where you're hiding her.

She's jumping.

Copy.

We're in full lockdown.

Process has commenced.

What process?

Hey, whoa, that's a pretty serious look there, dude.

Hey, whoa, what the hell, man?

Come on, I'm a friend of Damage Control.

What are you doing?

Huh.

It's gonna be like that.

You want to go?

All right.

All right.

Just give me a sec.

Give me a sec.

I'm not in high school anymore.

Did you stretch?

Are you a big stretcher?

I mean, you should do in your line of work.

What about you?

You guys stretch?

It's so good for you.

You ready?

Watch your head!

Where is Jean Grey?

Let's jump 26.

Recordings look good.

Excuse me, sir.

We have an intruder.

You were right.

She's much stronger than a sister.

Increase the frequency.

You're doing very well, Jean.

Jean?

Jean, can you hear me?

Jean?

You're a murderer.

Her frequencies are evolving.

This doesn't make sense.

The last thing my sister saw was this room.

Her brain waves are somehow affecting the objects around her.

Shut it down.

I'm trying, sir.

What do you mean you're trying?

The last thing my sister saw was this goddamn room!

Shut it down!

I can't, sir.

Move.

I can't let you do that, Bill.

The only hands that will wield this power are mine.

What do you want?

Jean, I'm here to help you.

You put me here.

I know, and I'm sorry about Sarah, and I'm sorry that I got it so wrong.

If you came here to save a helpless girl from damage control, you're too late.

They're the ones who need saving.

And now, so do you.

Here we go.

God, that's cool.

Jean!

Jean, please!

Isn't it funny how your friends from damage

control developed a special weapon just for you?

They've got a whole task force ready, just in case you ever get out of line.

People are monsters.

You shouldn't trust them any more than they trust you.

I'm a little busy, Frank.

You got a problem, kid.

She got a hold of everyone within a kilometer of the island.

Wait, what?

Look, if you're gonna do something, you better do it now.

Try it!

Kid!

Shit!

My sister died in this room, surrounded by these men.

And her only crime was that she was special.

Just like you.

Just like me.

People like us don't get to live a normal life.

We don't get to have friends or a family.

Those people are gone.

That life is over.

So why don't you just be honest with yourself?

Are you Peter Parker?

Or are you Spider-Man?

I'm both.

Jean, please.

This won't make it right.

Come on, you're not a killer, Jean.

You have no idea what I am.

I know that you loved your sister.

And I know that losing her felt like you'd lost everything.

If you come any closer, he dies.

They all do.

You know this won't bring her back, right, Jean?

Don't be so sure I can't get into your mind.

I'm a lot more powerful since I last tried.

Hey.

Hey.

You think you don't have to listen to me that I've got powers?

You know, this whole thing can get really scary.

You know that?

It's already pretty scary.

Yeah, and things can change very quickly.

Ways that we can't even imagine right now.

I know.

I don't think you do know.

What do you mean?

You're a really special person.

And I would hope that that will always make you feel really great about yourself.

But I know sometimes it doesn't.

Sometimes you'll be really lonely.

And sometimes, because you're special, people can do dark, monstrous things to you.

But, this is what I want you to know.

You're beautiful.

And the people who love you, we love you.

Not because you're special, we love you because you're you.

I want you to remember that.

Even when it feels like you're totally alone.

That's your deepest responsibility.

Never forget that, no matter how powerful you become.

Hey.

I'm sorry about your sister.

I'm sorry about your aunt.

Yeah, you would have loved her.

Just because we've lost someone,

it doesn't mean we have to do this alone.

I mean, we can't.

Trust me, I've been trying.

It doesn't work.

Even if that's true, I have no one.

You have me.

You hurt?

I'm fine.

Peter.

I'm okay, I'm okay, I'm okay.

Peter.

Peter, Peter.

No, no, no, no, no.

Peter.

You gotta get out of here.

Don't be looking for me.

No, no, no, no, no.

Please just stay with me.

Come on, hold on, come on, please.

You're gonna be okay.

Just go.

Look at me.

Shocked today, as Spider-Man arrived at Bellevue Hospital with a bullet wound,

seemingly at death's door.

The reclusive crime fighter is in critical condition

as the city's top medical experts work to save him.

Tonight, all eyes are on Spider-Man.

The hero who saved New York so many times is

now in the hands of its best and brightest.

And the people of New York hold their breath.

Frank.

Where am I?

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Hey.

Where's my mask?

I got you covered.

You're good.

Where's Jean?

Is she okay?

Yeah, she's okay.

She's okay.

Where is she?

I think maybe she just left.

She was using her magic voodoo shit to keep you alive.

Yeah, she's all right.

I'm sorry.

Frank, it's okay.

I'm really sorry for what I did.

No, Frank, it's okay.

You know, it's a lot of things, but a sure shit ain't okay, all right?

I've seen... I've seen real bravery.

Kid, my day.

That was something else.

Are you crying?

No, I ain't crying.

You know, you look the exact way I thought you would.

You're a nice kid.

Never had a friend like that.

And we're friends now.

I can't believe I just saw you cry.

Cry?

What are you talking about?

Bullshit.

Oh, yeah.

They've been doing it all night.

Been here since you walked in.

Take a look.

Yo, kid, when you came in, they had to cut through the

suit, but when you're ready to split, I got a plan.

Hey, it's Spider-Man!

I've...

I've been thinking a lot about what you said.

And you'd be happy to know that I've decided I'm not...

I'm not gonna do this alone anymore.

I miss you, mate.

I mean, I've still got a little pain in my back, but I could

probably get back out there if you need me for anything.

What I need you to do is rest.

I know, I know, but come on, you gotta give me something.

I mean, how's the investigation going?

Well, Metzger's still missing.

What?

Your friend, Black Widow, she's been helping us dig through

all the records Damage Control tried to have scrubbed.

Had me dropped by her office the other day.

And how was that?

Well, my skin feels amazing.

Attention all units, we have a confirmed bank robbery in progress.

Hey, are you getting this?

Yeah, I'm on it.

Hey, it's not that far from me.

I could probably meet you down there.

No, we can handle a robbery.

Just try to take care of yourself.

Okay.

You too.

Say hello to E.J.

Marley for me.

Okay.

Spider-Man says hello.

Hi.

Uh, hey.

Oh, oh.

Uh, flower guy, right?

From the party?

I'm Peter.

Okay, hello.

Peter.

Life's a bitch And then you live again Tragedies and wins Breakups with some

friends Memories of home It feels like life is going on I don't want to lose

again Please, I beg For my whole being valued Let me Let
