1
00:00:01,669 --> 00:00:04,080
[Peter]
Ever since I got my body back
from Doc Ock,
2
00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:06,330
it's been nonstop--
defeating Venom,
3
00:00:06,330 --> 00:00:09,669
saving the Avengers,
taking down
the ultra-powerful Regent...
4
00:00:09,669 --> 00:00:11,789
Spider-Man
has been in rare form.
5
00:00:11,789 --> 00:00:14,000
But Peter Parker,
on the other hand--
6
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:16,789
Let's just say Ock
did some serious damage
to my personal life
7
00:00:16,789 --> 00:00:18,789
when he was pretending
to be me.
8
00:00:18,789 --> 00:00:21,170
Most of my friends won't speak
to me and, even worse,
9
00:00:21,170 --> 00:00:23,289
Ock, as me,
quit Horizon High
10
00:00:23,289 --> 00:00:25,920
and seriously offended
the school's founder,
Max Modell,
11
00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:28,120
who now won't even
take my calls.
12
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:33,079
So, first thing
on the "Getting My Life
Back on Track" checklist:
13
00:00:33,079 --> 00:00:36,119
convince Max to let me
reenroll at Horizon High.
14
00:00:36,119 --> 00:00:40,500
And there he is.
Same train, every day,
like clockwork.
15
00:00:40,500 --> 00:00:44,500
Now I just have to
accidentally bump into him,
and--
16
00:00:44,500 --> 00:00:46,750
[man]
Coming through!
17
00:00:44,500 --> 00:00:46,750
[Peter]
Hey! Oh, come on! Really?
18
00:00:52,170 --> 00:00:54,079
I got this.
I got this.
19
00:00:54,079 --> 00:00:57,000
[pants]
Funny running into you,
huh? Max?
20
00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:58,500
Max?
21
00:00:58,500 --> 00:01:02,039
[pants]
He must have not heard me.
22
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,210
Max!
What a coincidence.
23
00:01:08,210 --> 00:01:09,829
And look.
24
00:01:08,210 --> 00:01:09,829
Huh?
25
00:01:09,829 --> 00:01:11,460
I accidentally
bought two drinks.
26
00:01:11,460 --> 00:01:13,420
Stop following me.
27
00:01:13,420 --> 00:01:16,579
Wha-- This is
a total accident.
28
00:01:16,579 --> 00:01:19,960
The things you said
to me, Peter,
were deeply offensive.
29
00:01:19,960 --> 00:01:22,960
You have no idea
how sorry I am.
30
00:01:22,960 --> 00:01:24,960
No, no.
Sorry's not good enough.
31
00:01:24,960 --> 00:01:28,210
Given everything you've done,
not to mention
your tuition problems,
32
00:01:28,210 --> 00:01:30,620
you're not getting
back into Horizon.
33
00:01:30,620 --> 00:01:32,750
Give it up.
34
00:01:32,750 --> 00:01:34,620
Sorry, Max,
35
00:01:34,620 --> 00:01:38,829
but giving up is not a skill
Peter Parker is any good at.
36
00:01:38,829 --> 00:01:41,039
I'm not dropping anything
from my checklist.
37
00:01:41,039 --> 00:01:44,170
Things like "Get people
to like Spider-Man again."
38
00:01:44,170 --> 00:01:46,379
See how aggressive
he's become?
39
00:01:46,379 --> 00:01:49,039
This angry web-spinner
is a hero!
40
00:01:49,039 --> 00:01:53,039
And get J.J. to hate
Spider-Man again. Huh?
41
00:01:49,039 --> 00:01:53,039
[explosion]
42
00:01:53,039 --> 00:01:55,379
[sirens wailing]
43
00:01:55,379 --> 00:01:59,379
Whoever that is might not be
on Peter Parker's checklist,
44
00:01:59,379 --> 00:02:02,250
but he just shot
straight to the top
of Spiderman's.
45
00:02:02,250 --> 00:02:06,040
Hey, buddy,
you got a permit to turn
New York into a skating rink?
46
00:02:07,879 --> 00:02:10,120
[grunts]
Webs didn't stick!
47
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,250
That's, like,
75% of their job!
48
00:02:12,250 --> 00:02:15,419
Frictionless suit.
Nothing can touch me.
49
00:02:15,419 --> 00:02:17,750
Can't say the same
about you.
[grunts]
50
00:02:17,750 --> 00:02:18,750
Huh? Aah!
51
00:02:35,039 --> 00:02:37,620
[groans]
So what's your deal,
Slippy Pants?
52
00:02:37,620 --> 00:02:39,170
Bank robbery?
Jewel heist?
53
00:02:39,170 --> 00:02:41,420
World domination?
All of the above?
54
00:02:41,420 --> 00:02:44,670
I only believe
that what goes around
comes around.
55
00:02:44,670 --> 00:02:48,539
And this city is gonna
rightfully pay for what it did
to Slyde.
56
00:02:48,539 --> 00:02:50,670
Wait.
So this is revenge?
57
00:02:50,670 --> 00:02:52,670
Look, if you've got
a nefarious scheme,
58
00:02:52,670 --> 00:02:55,079
at least have the courtesy
to explain it!
59
00:02:55,079 --> 00:02:57,079
You must be
really new at this.
60
00:02:57,079 --> 00:03:00,210
[grunts]
61
00:03:00,210 --> 00:03:04,330
I'd worry less about me
and more about them.
62
00:03:04,330 --> 00:03:06,750
[bystanders exclaiming]
63
00:03:08,039 --> 00:03:10,580
Not cool. Figuratively.
Literally.
64
00:03:08,039 --> 00:03:10,580
[creaking]
65
00:03:10,580 --> 00:03:12,419
[fire escape crashes to ground]
66
00:03:10,580 --> 00:03:12,419
Whatever-ly.
67
00:03:12,419 --> 00:03:14,620
No sign of Slyde anywhere.
68
00:03:14,620 --> 00:03:17,379
Wait.
Beemont Chemical?
69
00:03:17,379 --> 00:03:19,539
And Allan Beemont himself?
70
00:03:19,539 --> 00:03:22,920
Uh, he's a brilliant innovator,
but I read he almost never
leaves his lab.
71
00:03:22,920 --> 00:03:24,710
What's going on here?
72
00:03:24,710 --> 00:03:27,750
And does it have
anything to do with that clown?
73
00:03:27,750 --> 00:03:30,750
Slippery little dude.
74
00:03:30,750 --> 00:03:32,750
Yes! Awesome!
75
00:03:32,750 --> 00:03:35,170
[chuckles]
What are you watching, Flash?
76
00:03:35,170 --> 00:03:37,379
...acting like
a reckless idiot,
77
00:03:37,379 --> 00:03:39,379
endangering lives!
78
00:03:39,379 --> 00:03:41,710
I thought he'd changed,
but maybe Spider-Man's
79
00:03:41,710 --> 00:03:43,379
returning to his old ways!
80
00:03:43,379 --> 00:03:46,789
J.J. hates Spidey again?
Nice.
81
00:03:46,789 --> 00:03:48,879
What?
[scoffs]
Nah, not that.
82
00:03:48,879 --> 00:03:52,620
This! Spidey's back
in his classic
red and blue costume,
83
00:03:52,620 --> 00:03:54,500
not that weird
red and black one.
84
00:03:54,500 --> 00:03:58,379
And on top of everything else,
he's a miserable failure!
85
00:03:58,379 --> 00:04:00,669
Maybe Jamison's right.
86
00:04:00,669 --> 00:04:03,080
Spidey got his butt kicked
by some newbie.
87
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,830
I mean, it's great
that he seems less aggro,
but--
88
00:04:05,830 --> 00:04:09,460
Pfft. I don't know.
Maybe he's lost his edge.
89
00:04:09,460 --> 00:04:13,169
Peter, got a minute?
90
00:04:13,169 --> 00:04:15,460
Everything okay,
Anna-Maria?
91
00:04:15,460 --> 00:04:17,250
It's Otto.
92
00:04:17,250 --> 00:04:19,250
I haven't seen or heard
from him in days,
93
00:04:19,250 --> 00:04:21,250
not since we helped you
fight the Regent.
94
00:04:21,250 --> 00:04:23,420
Has he been
in touch with you?
95
00:04:23,420 --> 00:04:25,000
No.
96
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,290
And given the mess
he made of my life,
97
00:04:27,290 --> 00:04:29,379
it's probably good
we don't run into each other.
98
00:04:29,379 --> 00:04:32,670
Peter, I know Otto
regrets everything
he put you through.
99
00:04:32,670 --> 00:04:34,579
And he did
the right thing in the end.
100
00:04:34,579 --> 00:04:38,000
But I'm the one stuck
trying to fix
all the damage he caused.
101
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:39,790
I'm sure Ock's fine.
102
00:04:39,790 --> 00:04:41,579
I wouldn't worry
about him.
103
00:04:42,579 --> 00:04:44,620
Mr. Parker?
Your project?
104
00:04:45,670 --> 00:04:47,829
Uh, p-- p-project?
105
00:04:47,829 --> 00:04:49,829
Your term project.
106
00:04:49,829 --> 00:04:51,790
You do have it,
correct?
107
00:04:51,790 --> 00:04:54,579
[sighs]
108
00:04:51,790 --> 00:04:54,579
And your excuse?
109
00:04:54,579 --> 00:04:57,959
My mind wasn't in my body
when the assignment
was given out.
110
00:04:57,959 --> 00:05:01,500
I, uh, left it at home,
Mr. Salerno.
111
00:05:01,500 --> 00:05:03,500
I'll bring it tomorrow?
112
00:05:03,500 --> 00:05:05,790
It was due today.
113
00:05:05,790 --> 00:05:08,540
That's ten percent
off your grade.
114
00:05:09,670 --> 00:05:11,750
[Peter]
Max won't let me into Horizon.
115
00:05:11,750 --> 00:05:13,959
Midtown's a total disaster.
116
00:05:13,959 --> 00:05:15,920
My best friend Harry's
still in Europe.
117
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,670
Gwen and Anya
pretty much hate me.
118
00:05:18,670 --> 00:05:20,879
It's like the world I built
is completely gone,
119
00:05:20,879 --> 00:05:22,959
and I don't know
what to do, Uncle Ben.
120
00:05:22,959 --> 00:05:25,709
I had no control of my life
when Ock was me,
121
00:05:25,709 --> 00:05:28,170
but now that I'm back,
I still have no control.
122
00:05:28,170 --> 00:05:32,750
And there's no one I can talk to
who could possibly understand
how this feels.
123
00:05:32,750 --> 00:05:35,290
[clears throat]
Parker.
124
00:05:35,290 --> 00:05:37,290
[scoffs]
What are you doing here?
125
00:05:37,290 --> 00:05:40,500
Same as you,
I suppose.
126
00:05:40,500 --> 00:05:43,379
Looking for some...
direction.
127
00:05:43,379 --> 00:05:45,170
From my Uncle Ben?
128
00:05:45,170 --> 00:05:47,170
I share your memories.
129
00:05:47,170 --> 00:05:49,879
So, in a strange way,
he's my uncle too.
130
00:05:49,879 --> 00:05:52,120
No, he's not.
131
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,670
You stole him from me,
Otto.
132
00:05:54,670 --> 00:05:56,750
You stole my life.
133
00:05:56,750 --> 00:05:58,959
Now have the decency
to stay out of it.
134
00:05:58,959 --> 00:06:02,750
I have been trying
just that.
135
00:06:02,750 --> 00:06:05,620
But how can I deny
this man's influence?
136
00:06:05,620 --> 00:06:09,579
Ben Parker is now as much
a part of me as he is you.
137
00:06:09,579 --> 00:06:13,920
And you, above all others,
know what an inspiration
he could be.
138
00:06:16,620 --> 00:06:19,209
Yeah. Yeah, I do.
139
00:06:19,209 --> 00:06:22,579
No matter what kind of trouble
I got myself into,
140
00:06:22,579 --> 00:06:26,040
no matter how lost I was,
Uncle Ben always knew
how to lift me up.
141
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,040
[device beeps]
142
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,040
Huh?
143
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:31,329
Hmm? Slyde has
been sighted again.
144
00:06:31,329 --> 00:06:34,620
How do you know that?
And how do you know his name?
145
00:06:34,620 --> 00:06:39,000
My spider-bots are still keeping
an eye all over the city.
146
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,040
I saw your last interaction.
147
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:44,459
Slyde is now moving
through Central Park.
148
00:06:44,459 --> 00:06:47,579
What are you waiting for?
Go stop him.
149
00:06:47,579 --> 00:06:49,790
You're Spider-Man,
aren't you?
150
00:06:49,790 --> 00:06:53,620
And you, at least,
have a purpose.
151
00:06:53,620 --> 00:06:56,040
Otto, I...
152
00:06:57,209 --> 00:06:59,670
I've gotta go.
153
00:06:59,670 --> 00:07:01,829
[bystanders clamoring]
154
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:06,209
[Spider-Man]
This is your brilliant
revenge scheme?
155
00:07:06,209 --> 00:07:08,209
Blowing up a statue?
What's next?
156
00:07:08,209 --> 00:07:09,709
Seesaw? Roundabout?
157
00:07:09,709 --> 00:07:13,290
What's next is New York pays
for what was done to me.
158
00:07:13,290 --> 00:07:15,500
It's time to spread fear.
159
00:07:17,379 --> 00:07:19,290
No one is safe!
160
00:07:19,290 --> 00:07:21,459
Maybe if I can
accelerate my velocity
161
00:07:21,459 --> 00:07:23,829
and focus
the impact points--
[yells]
162
00:07:23,829 --> 00:07:25,459
[grunts, groans]
163
00:07:25,459 --> 00:07:27,329
How can you stop me
164
00:07:27,329 --> 00:07:29,459
when you can't even
stop yourself?
165
00:07:29,459 --> 00:07:31,709
He's made me frictionless,
166
00:07:31,709 --> 00:07:34,670
but he didn't count
on my webs.
167
00:07:31,709 --> 00:07:34,670
[web-shooter deploying sounds]
168
00:07:34,670 --> 00:07:36,670
His chemicals jammed them?
169
00:07:36,670 --> 00:07:41,790
Guess I can't count
on my webs either! Whoa!
170
00:07:36,670 --> 00:07:41,790
[horn blaring]
171
00:07:42,790 --> 00:07:44,670
Whoa!
172
00:07:42,790 --> 00:07:44,670
[horn blaring]
173
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:47,000
Aaah! Aah!
174
00:07:48,670 --> 00:07:52,000
Whoa! And the award
for Most Annoying Power
175
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,579
goes to... Slyde,
ladies and gentlemen.
176
00:07:56,250 --> 00:07:59,209
Also, never forget
the web-wings, kids.
177
00:07:59,209 --> 00:08:01,579
I bet this is surprising!
178
00:08:01,579 --> 00:08:03,959
[grunts]
How am I not rid of you?
179
00:08:03,959 --> 00:08:06,000
Is that
a rhetorical question?
180
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,750
It's gotta be,
'cause I don't think
you really want to hear
181
00:08:08,750 --> 00:08:10,790
about my adventures
as a human bobsled.
182
00:08:08,750 --> 00:08:10,790
[horn blaring]
183
00:08:12,579 --> 00:08:13,790
[grunts]
184
00:08:13,790 --> 00:08:15,959
Whoa!
185
00:08:13,790 --> 00:08:15,959
Aah!
186
00:08:15,959 --> 00:08:17,329
[grunts]
187
00:08:17,329 --> 00:08:18,540
[grunts]
188
00:08:18,540 --> 00:08:21,120
[grunts]
Enough of this!
189
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:22,120
[grunts]
190
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,290
[grunts]
Hey! Huh?
191
00:08:24,290 --> 00:08:26,170
[yells]
192
00:08:26,170 --> 00:08:27,750
Aah!
193
00:08:27,750 --> 00:08:32,750
[grunts]
Spider-Man, bitten
by a radioactive spider
194
00:08:32,750 --> 00:08:36,330
and given the power
to take humiliation
to a whole new level.
195
00:08:37,919 --> 00:08:40,710
[J. Jonah Jameson]
Spider-Man fails yet again!
196
00:08:40,710 --> 00:08:43,120
Has he lost whatever mojo
he found?
197
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:46,960
But more importantly,
I wanna know
who this sliding guy is
198
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:49,789
that's causing New Yorkers
to live in fear!
199
00:08:49,789 --> 00:08:51,789
You and me both, J.J.
200
00:08:51,789 --> 00:08:54,169
[sighs]
But without my lab at Horizon,
201
00:08:54,169 --> 00:08:56,669
I don't have any of the tech
to run a proper analysis
202
00:08:56,669 --> 00:08:58,500
and produce a counter-chemical.
203
00:08:58,500 --> 00:09:00,789
Ugh. Ock,
204
00:09:00,789 --> 00:09:03,580
why did you have to mess
everything up so badly?
205
00:09:03,580 --> 00:09:05,620
Wait. That's it!
206
00:09:08,039 --> 00:09:11,789
Hey, uh-- Oh, whoa!
207
00:09:11,789 --> 00:09:14,080
This place is amazing.
208
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:17,169
Was this your
headquarters when--
209
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:17,169
When I was you?
210
00:09:17,169 --> 00:09:20,710
Yes. The Spider's Nest,
as I called it.
211
00:09:20,710 --> 00:09:22,789
Proved to be
a vital central lab.
212
00:09:22,789 --> 00:09:27,580
But now this is all...
irrelevant, isn't it?
213
00:09:27,580 --> 00:09:30,669
If it's so irrelevant,
why are you still here?
214
00:09:30,669 --> 00:09:32,669
I have nowhere else
to go, Parker.
215
00:09:32,669 --> 00:09:36,289
The world that I had built
is completely gone.
216
00:09:36,289 --> 00:09:39,250
Yeah. I know the feeling.
217
00:09:39,250 --> 00:09:42,580
Please do not waste
my time any further.
218
00:09:42,580 --> 00:09:45,169
Inform me of why you called.
219
00:09:45,169 --> 00:09:49,039
Slyde. I need your help
developing a counter
to his chemical powers.
220
00:09:49,039 --> 00:09:52,080
First you demand
that I stay out of your life,
221
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,080
and now you come asking
for my assistance?
222
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,289
Yes.
[stammers]
223
00:09:56,289 --> 00:10:00,289
I realized we could
maybe make a good team.
224
00:10:00,289 --> 00:10:03,830
I couldn't have defeated
the Regent in the Cellar
without your help.
225
00:10:03,830 --> 00:10:05,830
I need it again.
226
00:10:05,830 --> 00:10:08,039
I was once Spider-Man.
227
00:10:08,039 --> 00:10:10,250
I will not be
Spider-Man's sidekick.
228
00:10:10,250 --> 00:10:11,789
Okay.
229
00:10:11,789 --> 00:10:13,789
Guess it's my bad
for thinking
230
00:10:13,789 --> 00:10:17,169
there might still be a hero
left in you somewhere.
231
00:10:18,620 --> 00:10:20,830
Parker, hold it.
232
00:10:20,830 --> 00:10:25,580
As I said, Otto Octavius
is no one's sidekick.
233
00:10:25,580 --> 00:10:28,830
But the science behind
Slyde's power-set intrigues me,
234
00:10:28,830 --> 00:10:30,879
and it would surely
expand the parameters
235
00:10:30,879 --> 00:10:33,039
of my knowledge
if I could understand it.
236
00:10:33,039 --> 00:10:37,000
I don't have the right lab gear
to fully process it at home,
237
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:41,080
but I managed to derive this
from the chemicals
Slyde sprayed on my costume,
238
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,879
which was kind of
totally humiliating.
239
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,879
[device clicks]
240
00:10:43,879 --> 00:10:46,169
Yes, I also found
that being a hero
241
00:10:46,169 --> 00:10:49,580
was not as glamorous
or respectable
as I had imagined.
242
00:10:49,580 --> 00:10:53,500
Yet it was still
strangely worth it.
243
00:10:53,500 --> 00:10:57,620
[clears throat]
I recognize several
of these chemical components.
244
00:10:57,620 --> 00:11:00,080
There are only
three companies that make them--
245
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,330
one in Frankfurt,
one in London,
246
00:11:02,330 --> 00:11:04,669
and one here in Manhattan.
247
00:11:04,669 --> 00:11:08,500
Is the one in Manhattan
the Beemont Chemical
Corporation, by chance?
248
00:11:08,500 --> 00:11:10,580
Allan Beemont is brilliant.
249
00:11:10,580 --> 00:11:13,750
I would not be surprised
if he was the source
of these chemicals?
250
00:11:13,750 --> 00:11:16,710
Then Spider-Man
has to get to work.
Thanks, Ock.
251
00:11:16,710 --> 00:11:19,500
You... are welcome.
252
00:11:19,500 --> 00:11:22,120
But do not expect my help
to become routine.
253
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:26,500
I know you're trying to resist
what Uncle Ben taught you, Otto.
254
00:11:26,500 --> 00:11:29,789
But you were right.
You can't.
255
00:11:41,750 --> 00:11:43,330
[rustling]
256
00:11:41,750 --> 00:11:43,330
[gasps]
257
00:11:43,330 --> 00:11:45,500
How did you get in here?
258
00:11:45,500 --> 00:11:48,250
Spider-Man?
Does whatever a spider can?
259
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,580
Well, spider yourself
back out again.
260
00:11:52,580 --> 00:11:55,039
I'm not here
to make any trouble.
261
00:11:55,039 --> 00:11:57,580
Well, maybe a little.
It's kind of my thing.
262
00:11:57,580 --> 00:12:01,580
What's the connection
between your company
and that lunatic Slyde?
263
00:12:01,580 --> 00:12:03,830
I have no idea
who you're talking about.
264
00:12:03,830 --> 00:12:06,789
Funny. I could have sworn
I saw you and your men
265
00:12:06,789 --> 00:12:08,419
at the scene
of Slyde's first attack.
266
00:12:08,419 --> 00:12:10,250
Those chemical explosions?
267
00:12:10,250 --> 00:12:12,789
Beemont Chem was there
to assist in the cleanup--
268
00:12:12,789 --> 00:12:15,960
something we've done
many times over the years
to help law enforcement.
269
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:20,580
Now get out before I have
my entire security force
up here.
270
00:12:20,580 --> 00:12:23,210
Whoa. No need for that.
271
00:12:23,210 --> 00:12:26,830
You seem a little aggravated
for someone who apparently
has never heard of Slyde.
272
00:12:26,830 --> 00:12:28,169
Out!
273
00:12:28,169 --> 00:12:30,620
Okay,
I can take a hint.
274
00:12:30,620 --> 00:12:32,789
[growls]
275
00:12:32,789 --> 00:12:36,789
I seem to have struck
a nerve with Beemont.
276
00:12:36,789 --> 00:12:40,039
He's hiding something.
But what?
277
00:12:40,039 --> 00:12:43,210
Maybe a quick look
in his lab, and--
278
00:12:40,039 --> 00:12:43,210
[man] Spider-Man.
279
00:12:45,460 --> 00:12:48,210
We don't have much time.
280
00:12:49,330 --> 00:12:51,289
Please, listen to me.
281
00:12:51,289 --> 00:12:53,830
Sure thing, Mr.--
282
00:12:51,289 --> 00:12:53,830
Doctor.
283
00:12:53,830 --> 00:12:57,330
Dr. Joseph Rockwell,
Chief Technical Officer
at Beemont.
284
00:12:57,330 --> 00:12:59,330
He's afraid
you'll discover the truth.
285
00:12:59,330 --> 00:13:02,830
Look, I've given my life
to this company,
286
00:13:02,830 --> 00:13:06,669
but safety and justice
are more important
than a corporation.
287
00:13:06,669 --> 00:13:09,919
So, there is a connection
between Beemont and Slyde?
288
00:13:09,919 --> 00:13:13,419
Yes. His name
is Jalome Beacher.
289
00:13:13,419 --> 00:13:16,669
Former employee.
One of our most
brilliant researchers.
290
00:13:16,669 --> 00:13:18,750
Then what went wrong?
291
00:13:18,750 --> 00:13:20,539
[Dr. Rockwell]
Beemont's ego.
292
00:13:20,539 --> 00:13:22,620
You see, a good part
of his global reputation
293
00:13:22,620 --> 00:13:24,620
has been built on
other people's work.
294
00:13:24,620 --> 00:13:27,210
He wanted credit
for what Beacher developed.
295
00:13:27,210 --> 00:13:29,879
When Beacher objected,
Allan had him fired.
296
00:13:29,879 --> 00:13:33,039
So that crazy suit,
the slip-sliding chemicals,
297
00:13:33,039 --> 00:13:35,879
the thermite bombs--
all developed here?
298
00:13:35,879 --> 00:13:37,419
Mm-hmm.
299
00:13:37,419 --> 00:13:39,669
Why the rampage?
I don't get it.
300
00:13:39,669 --> 00:13:41,879
Imagine what will happen
if the world learns
301
00:13:41,879 --> 00:13:43,669
the maniac
attacking New York
302
00:13:43,669 --> 00:13:46,000
created his tech
here at Beemont?
303
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:48,250
Tech that Beemont
has full credit for.
304
00:13:48,250 --> 00:13:51,000
That's a scandal you might
not be able to recover from.
305
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:52,919
Slyde wants
to ruin this company,
306
00:13:52,919 --> 00:13:56,710
so Beemont has been trying
to cover any connection
to him and Beacher--
307
00:13:56,710 --> 00:13:59,750
erasing e-mails,
corporate records...
308
00:13:59,750 --> 00:14:03,919
He fears if and when
Beacher is captured,
it will ruin him.
309
00:14:03,919 --> 00:14:06,120
Beacher might have been
ripped off by Allan Beemont,
310
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:10,620
but as Slyde, he's putting
people's lives at risk.
311
00:14:10,620 --> 00:14:13,960
That's a formula I developed
that could counteract
his powers.
312
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:17,960
Slyde needs to be stopped,
even if it might destroy
this company.
313
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:19,210
[explosion]
314
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:19,210
[both exclaim]
315
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:24,789
That sounds
like Slyde again.
316
00:14:24,789 --> 00:14:26,750
Only you can save New York,
Spider-Man.
317
00:14:26,750 --> 00:14:28,789
[web-shooter deploys]
318
00:14:31,500 --> 00:14:33,919

322
00:14:38,169 --> 00:14:39,960
You're welcome!
Beacher!
323
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:43,330
You know who I am?
Good.
324
00:14:43,330 --> 00:14:45,750
Soon everyone
will know the truth,
325
00:14:45,750 --> 00:14:48,379
and Beemont will pay
for what he did to me
326
00:14:48,379 --> 00:14:52,379
and all the others whose work
he claimed as his own!
[grunts]
327
00:14:52,379 --> 00:14:56,039
You're attacking the city
like this so everyone
will blame Beemont Chemicals?
328
00:14:56,039 --> 00:14:58,620
Isn't this a tiny bit
of an overreaction?
329
00:14:58,620 --> 00:15:00,250
It was just a job!
330
00:15:00,250 --> 00:15:02,289
It was my life!
331
00:15:02,289 --> 00:15:04,580
I know Beemont's
trying to keep
our connection hidden,
332
00:15:04,580 --> 00:15:06,830
but he won't be able
to ignore this.
333
00:15:06,830 --> 00:15:08,879
A video game controller?
334
00:15:08,879 --> 00:15:10,879
Color me... unimpressed.
335
00:15:10,879 --> 00:15:13,710
It's time for New York
to fall.
336
00:15:10,879 --> 00:15:13,710
[beeps]
337
00:15:15,669 --> 00:15:18,669
Okay, now can we say
this is an overreaction?
338
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:23,169
[bystanders clamoring]

a work complaints department?

Get to safety!

00:15:40,750 --> 00:15:42,169
[grunts]
346
00:15:42,169 --> 00:15:43,960
[grunts]
347
00:15:49,039 --> 00:15:51,539
That should do the trick.
Barely.
348
00:15:51,539 --> 00:15:54,289
What?
How can I stop all this?
349
00:16:07,289 --> 00:16:10,330
- [bystanders cheering]
- Spider-bots?
350
00:16:10,330 --> 00:16:12,330
[Dr. Octavius]
I will control
the fires, Spider-Man.
351
00:16:12,330 --> 00:16:14,000
You need to focus on Slyde.
352
00:16:12,330 --> 00:16:14,000
[clicking]
353
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,580
If you do not stop him,
his plans will only
get more dangerous.
354
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,580
[beeping]
355
00:16:17,580 --> 00:16:20,960
[Spider-Man]
Ock? I thought you were done
helping me out.
356
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:22,960
Your points were valid,
Parker.
357
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:26,830
I could not turn my back
on Uncle Ben's teachings
if I tried.
358
00:16:26,830 --> 00:16:31,210
However, I am your equal, not--
359
00:16:26,830 --> 00:16:31,210
My sidekick. Got it.
360
00:16:31,210 --> 00:16:33,830
And totally cool with it.
361
00:16:31,210 --> 00:16:33,830
[communicator beeps]
362
00:16:33,830 --> 00:16:36,919
I'm sending you a formula
that's supposed to counter
Slyde's powers.
363
00:16:36,919 --> 00:16:39,539
Can you turn this
into a serum?
364
00:16:36,919 --> 00:16:39,539
Hmm?
365
00:16:39,539 --> 00:16:42,919
This formula is rudimentary,
but with some tweaks,
366
00:16:42,919 --> 00:16:45,620
I can make it more effective.
367
00:16:42,919 --> 00:16:45,620
[sirens wailing]
368
00:16:45,620 --> 00:16:47,789
[sighs]
No sign of Slyde anywhere.
369
00:16:45,620 --> 00:16:47,789
[horn blares]
370
00:16:47,789 --> 00:16:50,919
My spider-bots can see
that he is heading
to Beemont Chemical,
371
00:16:50,919 --> 00:16:53,080
which is not surprising
in the least.
372
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:56,419
You expected Slyde
to face Allan Beemont head-on?
373
00:16:56,419 --> 00:16:59,919
No. This situation
is more complicated than that.
374
00:16:59,919 --> 00:17:03,789
Based on
security footage I accessed
before I sent in the bots,
375
00:17:03,789 --> 00:17:07,619
Slyde has returned
to Beemont Chemical
after every one of his rampages.
376
00:17:09,170 --> 00:17:12,500
Why would Slyde do that?
That doesn't make any sense.
377
00:17:12,500 --> 00:17:15,380
Only because you are thinking
like a hero, Spider-Man.
378
00:17:15,380 --> 00:17:18,079
If one were to think
like a villain,
379
00:17:18,079 --> 00:17:21,119
which I might have
some experience with,
380
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,789
there are a number of reasons
to hide in plain sight.
381
00:17:23,789 --> 00:17:26,119
Ock, that's genius!
382
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:28,880
I need you to research
one more thing for me.
383
00:17:34,170 --> 00:17:36,750
So this is
your secret Slyde-out.
384
00:17:36,750 --> 00:17:39,880
[chuckles]
Get it? I can come up
with names like that all day.
385
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:41,750
[growls]
386
00:17:43,619 --> 00:17:46,710
Aah!
[grunts, groans]
387
00:17:46,710 --> 00:17:49,079
Rough crowd.
388
00:17:46,710 --> 00:17:49,079
You're ruining my plans,
Spider-Man.
389
00:17:49,079 --> 00:17:51,000
[grunting]
390
00:17:56,210 --> 00:17:57,789
[grunting]
391
00:18:00,829 --> 00:18:04,579
There's been a lot
of friction between us
392
00:18:04,579 --> 00:18:07,829
and it's time
we resolved that.
[grunts]
393
00:18:07,829 --> 00:18:09,380
[groans]
394
00:18:09,380 --> 00:18:11,880
Imagine that.
395
00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:15,000
Jalome Beacher
defeating Spider-Man.
396
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:19,250
[Dr. Octavius] There is
only one man on this earth
who could defeat Spider-Man,
397
00:18:19,250 --> 00:18:22,710
and you are not him, Beacher.
398
00:18:24,420 --> 00:18:25,500
Aah!
399
00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:28,289
My chemicals...
400
00:18:28,289 --> 00:18:30,829
You rendered them inert?
Impossible!
401
00:18:30,829 --> 00:18:32,960
[Spider-Man]
"Impossible" is our specialty.
402
00:18:30,829 --> 00:18:32,960
[grunts]
403
00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:33,960
[grunts]
404
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:35,579
Aah!
[groans]
405
00:18:37,380 --> 00:18:39,789
[grunts, strains]
406
00:18:39,789 --> 00:18:41,289
Spider-Man!
407
00:18:42,829 --> 00:18:45,880
What--
What's Slyde doing here?
408
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,829
Spare me the act
of surprise, Beemont.
409
00:18:48,829 --> 00:18:52,079
I know you kept
this city in danger
to protect yourself.
410
00:18:52,079 --> 00:18:54,789
But you're not the one
I'm really after.
411
00:18:54,789 --> 00:18:58,880
Dr. Rockwell.
Waiting to see the results
of all your plans?
412
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:02,670
What are you talking about,
Spider-Man?
I helped you stop Slyde.
413
00:19:02,670 --> 00:19:06,920
Exactly.
So you could take over
Beemont Chemical for yourself.
414
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:09,250
What? Is this true?
415
00:19:09,250 --> 00:19:11,250
I was surprised, too,
416
00:19:11,250 --> 00:19:14,079
until I was reminded
to think like a villain.
417
00:19:14,079 --> 00:19:16,500
I had a friend look you up,
Rockwell.
418
00:19:16,500 --> 00:19:19,539
Wasn't easy, but he accessed
encrypted security footage
419
00:19:19,539 --> 00:19:22,329
of you giving Beacher
the chemicals he needed.
420
00:19:22,329 --> 00:19:24,880
[growling]
421
00:19:22,329 --> 00:19:24,880
You wanted
this company to fail.
422
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:28,039
So Allan Beemont
would be fired,
stocks would plummet,
423
00:19:28,039 --> 00:19:30,289
and a group of rather
mysterious investors
424
00:19:30,289 --> 00:19:32,789
would buy Beemont Chemical,
put you in charge,
425
00:19:32,789 --> 00:19:34,920
and take complete control
of this place.
426
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:38,789
This is the part where you say,
"And I would've gotten
away with it too!"
427
00:19:38,789 --> 00:19:41,289
You're the one who convinced me
Beacher should be fired
428
00:19:41,289 --> 00:19:44,119
for accusing me
of stealing his ideas,
which wasn't true.
429
00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:46,829
You and I were friends.
Why would you do all this?
430
00:19:46,829 --> 00:19:48,880
Friends?
431
00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:52,039
I owe loyalty to no one--
432
00:19:52,039 --> 00:19:55,460
only to the Goblin Nation!
433
00:19:58,579 --> 00:20:00,380
[Spider-Man]
I've seen that symbol
434
00:20:00,380 --> 00:20:02,380
all over the city,
435
00:20:02,380 --> 00:20:04,750
but barely noticed it.
436
00:20:04,750 --> 00:20:09,119
And that is the intention
of the Goblin Nation.
437
00:20:04,750 --> 00:20:09,119
[handcuffs click]
438
00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:11,380
We hide in plain sight.
439
00:20:11,380 --> 00:20:13,750
But just as I've
revealed myself to you,
440
00:20:13,750 --> 00:20:16,960
the Nation is ready
to reveal itself to the world!
441
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,250
And it's too late
to stop us, Spider-Man!
442
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:27,670
Hey, Ock, this Goblin Nation
thing sounds more
than a little sinister.
443
00:20:27,670 --> 00:20:29,750
Think you can do some research?
444
00:20:29,750 --> 00:20:32,170
Absolutely!
[clears throat]
445
00:20:32,170 --> 00:20:34,170
Schedule permitting,
of course.
446
00:20:34,170 --> 00:20:35,750
Thanks, Ock.
447
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:41,170
[Anna Maria]
So, Otto called me, and we're
going to meet for lunch.
448
00:20:41,170 --> 00:20:42,829
I talked to him.
449
00:20:42,829 --> 00:20:45,750
He's been feeling
a little lost.
450
00:20:45,750 --> 00:20:48,039
But I think
he's getting better now.
451
00:20:48,039 --> 00:20:50,829
Question.
Would Midtown be interested
452
00:20:50,829 --> 00:20:52,960
in hiring
a brilliant new teacher?
453
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:56,880
You know what?
It just might be.
454
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,960
I see you've got
your Spider-geek
back on pretty huge.
455
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:06,960
Did you see the way
he took down that Slyde guy?
456
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:08,789
[laughs]
It was epic!
457
00:21:08,789 --> 00:21:10,789
I'm not gonna argue that.
458
00:21:10,789 --> 00:21:13,789
And your enthusiasm
also helps me make progress
459
00:21:13,789 --> 00:21:15,880
on a personal assignment.
460
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:19,380
"Get people
to like Spidey again"?
Check.
461
00:21:19,380 --> 00:21:21,960
Oh, I almost forgot
the newest one I added--
462
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:23,750
"Help Ock find a purpose."
463
00:21:23,750 --> 00:21:27,000
Otto, I have
a question for you.
464
00:21:28,039 --> 00:21:30,329
Big check.
465
00:21:28,039 --> 00:21:30,329
[beeps]
