- Lovely.

- Yeah, they're beautiful, right?

They're beautiful.

- They weren't, they were nice.

- No, they're beautiful.

I'm sorry.

No, it's impressive,

they actually held together very well.

- I'm gonna keep these.

- You have your suit in there?

- My suit?

- It's for dinner.

Are you gonna wear that? That's..

Hey hon.

- You must be Peter.

- Dad, this is Peter.

- Hey, nice to meet you sir.

- Nice to meet you.

Dinner's ready.

Hope you like branzino.

Who doesn't

Emma, it's Curt, is he there?

I'm afraid not doctor,

the car's taking

him to the veteran's

hospital in Brooklyn.

No, no, he can't Emma,

you have to stop him.

I would, but I always loose

him when he's on the bridge.

I'll make sure Dr. Ratha returns

your call as soon as possible.

Holton Avenue across the

river, I'm in a hurry.

OK, you want me to take the

tunnel or the bridge?

Bridge!

- Take the bridge.

- Alright, I'm gonna do that.

Hey man, you alright back there?

Are you trippin'?

- Just drive.

- OK.

You're having trouble there, aren't you?

The head goes in the other, Simon

help Gwen's friend with his fish.

- I don't know it.

- First time.

George, why don't you

tell us about your day?

Yeah dad, did you

catch that spider guy yet?

No, we didn't catch

him yet, but we will.

He's an amateur who's assaulting

civilians in the dead of night.

He's clumsy, he leaves clues,

but he's still dangerous.

He's assaulting people?

I'm not sure, I mean, I saw that

video with him and the car thief.

I think most people

would say that he was...

- Providing a public service.

- Most people would be wrong.

If I wanted the car thief off the

street, he'd already be off the street.

So why wasn't he then?

Let me illuminate you, see

the car thief was leading us

to the people who run

the entire operation.

It's been a six month long

stinger, this is called strategy,

I'm sure you're aware of the term strategy,

you've probably heard about that in school.

Obviously he didn't know you had a plan.

You seem to know an

awful lot about this case,

you know something that we don't know?

- I mean, who's side are you on here?

- I'm not on anyone's side.

I saw video on the Internet...

- Oh, you saw the video on the Internet.

- Well, then case is closed.

- No, I'm just saying

if you watched the video,

maybe he'd send you a link,

it looks like he's

really trying to help.

Sure, on the Internet he's been made out

to look like some kind of masked hero.

No, I'm not saying he's a hero,

I don't think he's a hero at all...

- What are you trying to say?

- I'm saying he's trying to help,

but it looks like he's trying to

do something maybe the police can't.

- Something the police can't?

- I don't know.

What do you think we do all day?

Just sit around, eating donuts

- with our thumbs planted firmly

up our asses? - George. - Daddy.

- Think we do that down there?

- Up your what dad?

I think he stands for

what you stand for, sir.

- Protecting innocent people from bad guys.

- I stand for law and order son,

that's what I stand for.

I wear a badge.

This guy wears a mask, like an outlaw.

He's hunting down a bunch of

criminals that all look the same,

like he's got some sort

of personal vendetta.

But he's not protecting

innocent people, Mr. Parker.

Let's get some air Peter.

- Dad, we need to talk.

- Yes we do.

Thank you for having me, I'm sorry if

I insulted you, it was not my intention.

You're welcome.

Branzino was really good.

Mrs. Stacey, thank you.

You're welcome.

- Dad.

- Yes.

That was something.

I'm sorry, I thought he was

gonna arrest me at one point.

I wouldn't have let him arrest you.

- What happened to your face?

- I'm gonna tell you something.

OK.

I've been bitten.

So have I.

OK, OK, OK, OK, OK, I gotta

tell you this one thing,

and it's about the vigilante and

the car thief, alright?

Oh, OK.

No, no, no, don't.

Forget that, I'm not gonna talk

about that, I'm gonna talk about me.

What about you?

I wish I could just...

I can't, it's hard to say.

Just say, say it.

Why, what?

What?

- You're Spiderman...

- Shut up now.

Gwen?!

Gwen?

Your father wants you to

come inside, right away.

OK.

- OK?

- Yeah.

- Gwen...

- I'm coming.

I'm in trouble.

Can you please go and find

out what's going on, Alfred?

Excellent.

Incoming!

Somebody, help!

Help me, my kid is trapped!

I want my dad! Dad!

Hey buddy, it's OK.

- Get away!

- It's alright.

- Help!

- Hey, look.

Just a normal guy, right?

Wanna hold on to this?

Hold on to my mask.

- What's your name? Jack?

- Yes.

Let's get you out of here.

Stay very still.

- Alright.

- I got you.

OK, now I'm gonna undo the belt.

You're gonna hold on

to that seat, on three.

OK, one, two, three.

See how easy that was?

You did a great job.

Jack, climb, now!

- I can't!

- Yes you can!

Put it on, the mask, it's

gonna make you strong.

Jack, trust me, put it on.

There you go, that's it!

That's it buddy!

OK, now, climb! Come on Jack!

Do me a favor, a little faster, OK bud?

You're doing great

buddy, you're doing great!

That's it, keep coming, keep coming.

No!

Oh Jack, thank God.

You OK?

My son...My son...

Who are you?

Spiderman.

Peter.

Does this scare you?

Who are you gonna tell?

No, no.

What did that thing on

the bridge look like?

- Real big, too big to be human.

- You got to lay low.

- No, I can't do that.

- You've got to.

- I mean why...

- Because of last night.

Those people on the bridge,

whatever was attacking them,

would have killed them.

So, I gotta go after it.

- That's not your job.

- Maybe it its.

I really liked kissing you.

And you're an amazing kisser.

Well, you know, it was good for me too.

Yeah?

Hello?!

It's not nice to snoop.

I gave everyone the week off.

Yeah.

Shouldn't you be at school?

No, I got a free track, I

wanted to ask you a question.

- How would a predator track a reptile?

- Oh you don't, most reptiles

are at the top of their respected

food chain, kings of their domain.

They got to have vulnerabilities, right?

Why the sudden interest

in the cold blooded?

Just asking a question,

I got school stuff,

biology profiles to do.

So because of the cold blood would they

react to sudden changes in temperature?

You'd have to catch one first.

Did you know, there's a rumor

of a new species in New York?

- Beautiful and quite large.

- What do you know about it? You seen it?

It's not yet classified.

But it can be aggressive, if threatened.

Doc, are you alright?

Never been better Peter,

never been better.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm afraid

I'm gonna have to ask you to leave.

I have a new project I'm

working on, I need to be alone.

Don't worry Mr. Parker, I'll be back.

Wonderful things are coming.

Wonderful things.

Fred.

Mr. mayor, I can assure you if

there was a giant dinosaur running

around the streets of Manhattan

you would be the first to know.

So tell your son he can rest easy, alright?
