00:18:56,427 --> 00:19:00,014
You seem troubled, son.
Troubled? Gee, you think?

315
00:19:00,181 --> 00:19:02,475
I failed my calc test
because Pete abandoned me.

316
00:19:02,642 --> 00:19:05,019
Flash's crowd won't cut me a break.
Enough.

You're parked in a no-whining zone.
Take some responsibility.

Peter's not the reason you failed.
You wanna pass a test, study.

You wanna be popular, be popular.
Take control of your destiny, boy.

My apologies for the interruption.
Eh, kids today. What you gonna do?

324
00:19:34,215 --> 00:19:38,678
New topic: Spider-Man.
We want him gone.

None of my business.

Really? Hero saved your hide.

327
00:19:42,723 --> 00:19:46,060
I have nothing to do with Spider-Man.
I wouldn't have risked tipping you off

328
00:19:46,227 --> 00:19:48,813
to that Tri Corp shipment if I had.
Why did you tip us off?

329
00:19:48,979 --> 00:19:52,858
Tri Corp's my competitor
in the super-mercenary field.

330
00:19:53,025 --> 00:19:56,404
If their prototypes go missing,
everyone wins.

Which brings up an issue

Already e-mailed his shots.
Kid still needs a new camera.

348
00:20:56,380 --> 00:20:58,841
What's this?
The <i>Bugle</i> paid me for my pictures.

Now you can pay those bills.
Out of the question.

350
00:21:02,261 --> 00:21:06,056
Besides, if you're gonna take photos
for the <i>Bugle,</i> you need a new camera.

I accept, if you agree to set aside
10 percent of every check
