Original subtitles

[Nico] Since the day we met, he's been like a brother to me,

but he's been keeping this major secret.

He didn't trust me enough to let me into this huge part of his life.

It's one thing to risk your own life,

but it's another thing to be willing to risk the people closest to you.

Things have been different without having Uncle Ben around,

but you've always been here for me.

One of the last conversations I had with Otto was about Gamma.

I think we can track him down through it.

[Peter] If we stop Octavius, we stop his designs from getting into the wrong hands.

[Pearl] Dre told me everything. He's worried about you, Lon!

-Just let us help you. -I don't need your help.

[Mac distorted] Knock, knock. [laughing maniacally]

[Spider-Man] Lonnie? What's he doing here?

-Pearl! -[screams]

[Spider-Man] This was super fun, but I think it's time to wrap things up.

[screams]

[Spider-Man] Mr. Osborn, I need your help. Mr. Osborn, please.

-[beeps, trills] -I found you, Otto.

[screams]

[Norman] I'm getting reports that your suit has been punctured.

-That shouldn't be possible. -It's possible. [groans]

[Norman on speakers] Spider-Man! Climb on!

[Norman] Give him some space, everybody.

What's his status?

[birds chirping]

-[groaning] -[EKG beeping]

Ow.

[gasps]

-My mask... -[Norman] It's okay, Peter.

No one has seen your face.

It's just me in here with you now.

-[weakly] Mr. Osborn... -[Norman] You're healing remarkably fast.

-Another gift of your unique physiology. -Where...

-Where am I? -Oscorp's experimental medical wing.

My doctors monitored you overnight.

Overnight? I... Mr. Osborn, I gotta talk to May.

I had Harry call and tell her you were spending the night at our place.

-Oh. So, she... -Has no reason to worry.

Okay... But the scorpion tail guy I was fighting, he...

he's still out there, right? I... I gotta stop him

-before someone gets hurt. -Slow down.

He won't last. That maniac has a target on his back

from every law enforcement agency in the city.

Octavius is the real threat, always has been.

And thanks to you, I found him.

[groans] Let's end this, then. Nobody else gets hurt. I... I'm ready.

I'm afraid that's not an option.

The Spider-Man suit sustained heavy damage during your encounter with the Scorpion.

-It's... totaled. -[♪ somber music playing]

That's okay. What about one of the other designs?

I... I'll wear the bumblebee wings. I don't care.

-No. You need to to rest and heal. -[gasps]

I'll alert the proper authorities to handle Octavius.

[sighs]

I went up against the Scorpion, and I lost.

When people get hurt, or worse, that'll be on me.

And I just don't know if I have the power to stop him.

Peter, you doubt yourself because you're holding yourself back.

The second you embrace the true power of your abilities,

you'll be unmatched.

I don't wanna see you get hurt again, but I'm afraid it will keep happening

unless you push yourself to that higher level.

If you're not willing to do that,

-then maybe our work together should end. -[gasps]

Because that's the level I need Spider-Man at.

-That's the level I need you at, Peter. -[♪ tense music playing]

As soon as you're able, you can head home to your aunt.

Miss Porter, please get me Secretary Ross.

[sighs]

-[Asha screaming] -[gasps]

[panting]

-[squeals] It works! It works! -[students groan]

Too bad my ears don't anymore.

-[gasps] Peter. -Is everyone okay in here?

-Uh, yeah. Are you okay, dude? -[all gasping]

-Did you get mugged? -Yeah. Yeah.

Stable output. Strong current.

It's functioning perfectly.

Just as your calculations predicted.

Yes, even I have to admit this is a bit of a breakthrough, Parker.

Uh, a minor breakthrough.

Like breaking through a wall of wet tissue paper.

You three better hope your projects match this level of... adequateness.

[chuckles] Oh, you haven't seen anything yet, doc.

If I don't deliver something better than that,

my pride will be as bruised as Pete's face.

-[Asha] Hey. -Not funny, Cho.

-Apologize. -My bad, bro.

-We're good, right? -[Jeanne scoffs] He's like a child.

Peter? Was Jeanne right? You were mugged?

What? Oh, yeah. It's like they said. [chuckles] Wrong place, wrong time.

I'm sorry that I missed our demonstration, Dr. Connors.

Mr. Osborn has me working on a special project.

Is that why they're turning this place into a zoo?

[animals chittering]

No, I actually don't know anything about that.

Are you sure you don't need any help from me?

[stammers] No, don't worry about it. Go home and get some rest.

You've been an integral partner for this whole experiment.

I'm sure Mr. Osborn noticed that,

and that's why he expects such big things from you.

And I would hate to let him down.

I think I already have.

Thanks for everything, Dr. Connors.

[instructor on video] You are the warrior.

-Hi, May! I'm home. I'll be in my room. -[instructor] You are strong.

Hey, Peter. Peter, I watched The Bachelor last night without you.

You have to hear... [gasps]

Oh, my gosh. What happened?

I don't know. [chuckles] You were about to tell me.

It's fine. It's fi... May, don't freak out.

Harry was just teaching me to skateboard, and it didn't go well.

[May] Uh, nuh-uh. No, no, that's not how this works, kid.

Now, we are supposed to be a team,

and if you're gonna stay out all night, I need to hear it from you.

And if you come home beat up, I deserve to know why.

I just don't want you to worry.

Well, too bad. I'm gonna worry. A lot.

I care about you, Peter.

[♪ emotional music playing]

-[gasps] -I just...

-I keep screwing everything up, May. -Oh.

[sighs] Nico's mad at me,

Mr. Osborn's probably so disappointed, and I...

[breathes deeply] I feel like there's so much that I have to do,

and so many people that I have to do right by,

and if I can't handle that responsibility, then I'm weak.

I'm afraid I'll never be strong enough to be who I'm supposed to.

-You already are, Peter. -[♪ inspiring music playing]

And you're stronger than you give yourself credit for.

Look, the world has put you through the wringer.

And... And so much is changing that it's okay to be scared.

That's not a weakness.

I was scared too, you know.

When it became just you and me.

I mean, I thought Ben would be here to help me.

May, it's okay. You have been more than enough.

No, [sighs] Peter, I love you, and I'm here for you. But...

-But you're growin' up, and... -[sighs]

I know Ben could have been your role model.

You just deserve someone like him to talk to, someone you trust,

like you trust me.

Well, I'm glad that I have you. I love you, too, May.

[chuckles] Look, can I just get you to promise

you won't try skateboarding ever again?

'Cause seems like you're really bad at it.

-[grunts] -Ooh.

[both chuckling]

Sure. You got it.

[horns honking]

[♪ romantic jazz music playing on speakers]

-[call ringing] -[system chimes]

-Hello, sir. -Vincent, why are you contacting me

during my private brainstorming hours?

I just happened to be nearby

and thought I'd check in and see if you need anything?

What I need is for you not to disturb me when I'm doing cutting-edge research.

You're playing that game again, aren't you?

[cat meowing in video game]

I'm just farming XP until the developers patch the exploit I found.

Besides, I also just finalized a deal to acquire a sampling

of one of the Earth's rarest metals.

The applications will be endless.

[Vincent] Did you remember to eat something, sir?

[cat meowing]

I'm a grown man, Vincent. Of course, I did.

[Vincent] I could bring you some leftover soup if you're hungry.

I won't decline that offer.

But we have nothing more to say to one another until then.

[system beeps]

[warehouse door opening]

Vincent? That was quick.

-[door slams] -Otto Octavius,

you're in violation of the Sokovia Accords

for the illegal harboring and selling of Gamma-powered weapons.

-Hands up, Doctor. -Oh.

-This is not ideal. -[officer] Hands up, doc.

Well, you asked.

-[snaps fingers] -[whirring]

-[♪ upbeat jazz music playing] -[groans]

-[officer] Heads up! -Stop! Stop, don't come any closer.

Don't let him escape.

-Everybody down! -[officer 1] Back up! Take cover!

[officer 2] Back up! Back up!

-[chimes, whooshes] -[officers groaning]

-[officer 1] My ears! -[officer 2] No! No!

[officer 3] My head!

[Dr. Octavius] Yes, yes, you're in tremendous pain.

You think I don't already know that?

[♪ upbeat jazz music continuing]

[clanking]

Freeze, doc.

[whirring]

-[electricity crackling] -[groans]

I hope those seven seconds of valor were worth it.

-[♪ music ends] -[whirring]

-[sirens blaring] -[officer] Freeze! Don't move.

Give it up, Octavius.

[chuckles] My apologies, but I'm in a rush.

I don't have any change to spare for the VFW.

[call ringing]

[sighs]

[recording] Yo, it's Nico. Leave a message or whatever.

Nico, it's, uh, Peter... Parker.

I wish I could say something better than just "Sorry,"

but I'm trying to come up with more now, and all I'm doing is sort of rambling...

on a voice mail message, and I...

You know, I don't know if you check your voicemail.

I don't [chuckles nervously] check mine, really.

[sighs] Okay.

I know I hid this from you.

The other me, but it happened so fast,

right when we first met, and... and I didn't know how to ever say it,

and I thought I wouldn't have to.

But I should have so, I could've explained then what I'm doing.

Why I'm doing it.

[sighs] I'm just tryna do the right thing.

-[phone vibrates] -[gasps]

-Pearl? -[Pearl] Yeah. Hey, where are you?

We need to finish our assignment for Mr. Taylor's class.

-We do? Oh, right! Right. -[♪ upbeat music playing]

[Pearl] Emma's running late, but she should be on the way to my house.

I thought you would be here by now.

Sorry. I'm... I'm coming. Don't worry.

-May, I'm going out. -[door opens]

Okay, I love you. Be careful!

[sighs]

[♪ upbeat music continuing]

-[panting] -[doorbell rings]

[Peter sighs]

-Hey, Pearl. Sorry, I'm... -Late, yeah. It's all good.

Emma texted that her dog's grandma died and bailed on us.

So, honestly, you get points just for showing up.

Well, condolences to Emma's dog's family.

[chuckles]

[door closes]

You okay? Kinda looks like you had a rough weekend.

-Yeah. -You are not alone. [sighs]

But nothing like homework to get your mind off your problems, right?

Totally. [chuckles]

Uh, what are we supposed to be doing again?

I must not have been paying attention last class.

We need to sketch out molecular diagrams for different elements and compounds.

-[♪ chill music playing] -I guess we can start with Argon.

Oh, Argon's easy. 22 neutrons, two-eight-eight shell structure.

[chuckles] Wow. Didn't realize you were such an Argon fan.

-I don't even know anything it's used for. -Welding, actually.

[chuckles] You do a lot of welding?

[chuckles] No. Just, uh, when I made my... bracelets.

[chuckles] I think you need to grow your hair out

if you wanna be a Brooklyn bracelet guy, Petey.

[both chuckle]

You'd look good with long hair. Kind of a surfer, beachy vibe.

-I love the beach. -Same!

One summer, I made Ben take me to Coney Island, like, six times.

He got really sunburned. [chuckles]

You should see the beaches we have in the Philippines.

My family goes back sometimes, and it's always like a whole other world.

-[doorbell rings] -Oh, uh...

Weird. You think Emma grew a conscience and decided to come help after all?

-[horns honking] -[gasps]

You... You weren't answerin' your phone. I just came by to see how you were doin'.

Well, Lonnie, been better. Listen, now is not a great time.

Somethin' up?

It's just, Peter and I were in the middle of working on a science project.

You know, for the class you dropped.

Oh. That's cool. I... I can come back later.

-[gasps] Um... -[♪ emotional music playing]

Sorry, I'll just be a sec.

[door closes]

What happened on Friday with that guy, Gargan...

-[sighs] I wish you hadn't been there. -Did you know he was gonna show up?

-He wanted to kill all of you. -No doubt.

Everyone in that gang is probably running for it now.

You can finally get out too, Lon.

[sighs] I don't think so.

They won't come after you. They've obviously got bigger problems.

I'm not worried about that. I can't abandon the One Tenth.

They're gonna try to take down Gargan.

-They need me. -[gasps]

You're kidding. You don't owe them, Lonnie.

Yeah, I do. They had my back when the Scorpions really rattled me.

And they put their bodies on the line to help protect us Friday night.

[scoffs] I'd be thanking Spider-Man more than them.

Look, I'm bein' straight up with you right now.

I need to see this through with them.

Then there's nothing more to say.

If you go back, I want nothing to do with you.

I understand.

Guess this is goodbye then.

[♪ emotional music continuing]

[sobbing]

[sniffling]

Sorry about that. [sniffles]

Petey?

-[wind whooshing] -[♪ suspenseful music playing]

Wait, Lonnie, listen to me.

Parker! What the... How... How did you...

You can't go back to that group. Please.

Dude, I appreciate the concern,

but you don't know what you're talkin' about.

I know more than you think,

and you're putting yourself in serious danger.

Lonnie, I am begging you.

I really think you're making a mistake.

Then it's my mistake to make. I know you might not understand this,

but I've had to make a lotta mistakes lately,

for my family's well-being.

So, I don't have the luxury of sitting around with Pearl

and focusing on science homework like you.

Look, I get what you're tryna do, but I gotta do this.

So, please don't get in my way.

[breathes deeply]

[♪ soft emotional music playing]

[sirens, horns blaring in distance]

Hey, May, I'm back.

-[door closes] -May, you home?

[sighs]

[May] You just deserve someone like him to talk to, someone you trust,

like you trust me.

[breathes deeply]

-Um... Mr. Osborn? -Peter... Hello.

-Good to see you're doing better. -Yeah, man.

So glad you're okay. You have no idea how worried we were.

[chuckles] Thank you. Yeah, no, I'm... [sighs] I'm fine.

-Harry, give us a moment. -What? But... No, Dad.

-I won't ask again. -I'm a part of this team, too.

Unless Peter asks me to leave, I'm staying.

Oh. [chuckles] Is that right?

[grumbles]

Sorry. He needs to get better at reading the room.

There's something on your mind, isn't there?

I'm not sure I should even be talking to you about this, Mr. Osborn,

-based on our earlier conversation... -[♪ tense music playing]

but... [sighs] Spider-Man is supposed to help people.

I mean, he's supposed to keep bad things from happening.

But Spider-Man got beat,

and earlier, I found out one of my friends is about to go after the Scorpion.

I... I tried to talk him out of it, but I can't even do that.

I'm tryin' to be better like you told me to, sir,

but I don't know how. How do I get better?

Peter... If you have to ask, then you're missing the point.

The other night, the Scorpion almost killed you.

Do you know why?

Because you held back, and he didn't.

You may pull your punches, but your opponents don't.

You shouldn't fear your own strength, Peter.

You don't run from power. You embrace it.

[Norman] Take it from me.

With great power comes great respect.

[♪ tense music swells]

[Norman] And if you don't have respect, you have nothing.

You need to give the world a reason to respect you.

[knock on door]

-The car is ready for you downstairs, sir. -Great. Be right there.

I have a small errand to run, but it shouldn't take too long.

You're welcome to wait here until I get back. With Harry.

Come on back in, son.

So... [stammers] What was that about?

[♪ tough hip-hop music playing]

[dog barking]

Oh, man, why the hell did you call us here, Don?

I told you. I got a lead on where Gargan got his little "upgrade."

Oh, yeah? Well, it seems like you got played,

and now we all standin' around here

like an all-you-can-stab buffet for the Scorpion.

-You don't talk to Don like that. -[thug 1] Dozer, come on, man!

-Back up off me, Dozer. -[thug 2] Dude, chill!

-[both grunting] -We're family, Dozer!

-Hey, hold up. Doze, come on. -[both grunting]

I know y'all ain't stupid enough to be doin' Gargan's job for him.

Cut it out.

[man in Russian accent] It's a pity that this

is who I'm reduced to dealing with.

-[♪ mysterious music playing] -Such inelegant gangsters.

Oh, you're here. And why you look like a damn mummy?

Secrecy is for the best. My face has had a recent string of bad publicity.

Hey, get a new one then. This is what we scraped together.

-[♪ tense music playing] ...Now... tell us what you know.

Right. The man you are interested in, Mac Gargan, he has become almost like, uh,

Iron Man with a tail.

-He's a scorpion. -Okay. I don't really care.

The point is, it was likely done by a doctor named Octavius.

What kinda doctor turns people into... that?

Not sure. I never met the man myself, but my accomplice did.

And she came out of the experience a very different woman.

How do we know you're not makin' all this up?

[chuckles] You don't. But you're paying me with practically pennies here,

so you should take whatever you get.

This is where my crew was set to meet with Octavius, his so-called lab.

[Big Donovan] Yo, Tombstone, bring that over here.

You want gear? That's where to get it.

But move quickly.

You've seen the good doctor's inventions are not exactly subtle.

Now you know everything I do.

Farewell, Donovan, Tombstone, and...

and the rest.

Hmm?

Finally, people... We're gonna even the playing field.

[thugs hesitating]

You heard Don. Gargan's days are numbered!

-Yeah! One Tenth! One Tenth! One Tenth! -[thugs cheering]

[chuckling]

-[thug] Yeah, come on! -[Big Donovan] Yeah. [chuckles]

Swish. So, yeah, I dropped Nico off after that,

and [chuckles] things seemed cool between us.

You might still have some work to do though.

Yeah. Mm-hmm.

Uh... Are you listening? You seem really antsy.

Of course, I'm antsy! Your dad... basically said that he and I might have

-to stop workin' together. -Wait. What?

Is he gonna bill me for the money he spent

on Spider-Man's stuff? Because I do not have

-a zillion dollars lying around, dude. -My dad wouldn't do you that dirty.

He's probably just playing hard ball. What did he say?

That I need to step up. I need to get better.

I have great power, so I should use it so people will respect me.

I mean, he has a point.

Okay, you're not helping. Go back to shooting imaginary hoops.

-No, like, my dad has a lot of power... -[♪ pensive music playing]

...and he has a lot of respect,

but he is not Spider-Man. You are.

So, what Spider-Man needs to do should be up to you.

[alarm beeping]

[dispatch on speakers] All units.

An emergency situation reported in Midtown.

Truck hijacking in progress. All units respond.

I mean, that's what Spider-Man needs to do.

-He needs to get back out there. [sighs] -[dispatch] Family dispute.

-72 west, 21st street. -But I still don't have a suit.

Yeah, you do.

[♪ upbeat heroic music playing]

[whirring]

You said you wanted to add some color, so I started chatting

with some of Oscorp's engineers to see what they could do.

I also shared a couple pics of those doodles you keep in your notebook.

I... Harry...

I know, right?

[dispatch] Repeat, truck hijacking in progress.

All units converge on Midtown.

Go get 'em, tiger.
