Felicia, I wanna see

every file on this list.

Every single one.

Peter Parker.

It's like seeing a ghost.

Hey, Harry.

Random.

- What, 10 years.

- It's eight.

But you're close.

What's up?

I saw the news, man.

I heard about your dad

and I wanted to come and...

Just wanted to come and see you.

Check to see how you were doing.

I'm with some people.

(SIGHS)

I'm in a...

I'm in a meeting.

I'm sorry, I don't wanna intrude.

I know it's been a long time.

I kind of know exactly

what you're going through right now.

And you were so there for me

when my parents...

Well, that's why I'm here for you.

Thank you.

Ah, it's good to see you, man.

It's good to see you.

I'm sorry about your dad.

You got your braces off.

(CHUCKLES)

Now there's nothing to

distract from your unibrow.

()

There he is.

- There he is.

- Ha-ha-ha.

You still blow-dry your

hair every morning?

Um... You know, one of my

manservants holds the hair dryer

- but I work the comb, okay?

- Ha-ha-ha.

So at least I'm not

completely helpless.

You're stupid.

HARRY:
After graduation, I went

to Brazil, then Singapore.

- PETER:
That's right, yeah.

- HARRY:
Yeah.

And then Europe.

You know, I went to Europe.

PETER:
I saw you.

What do you mean, you saw me?

I saw you in some magazine

with some French supermodel.

You know what I'm talking about?

- Yeah, yeah, yeah. Ha-ha-ha.

- Ha-ha-ha.

Dude, that whole model

thing is so exhausting.

I know.

(PETER LAUGHS)

What? You got a lady?

Uh...

That's a question.

That's a question.

- Unh.

- Whoa, buddy.

No, I don't.

Yeah.

I don't know. It's, uh...

(SIGHS)

I don't know. It's complicated.

Yeah, I don't do complicated.

Uh, what's her name? Who is she?

Her name's Gwen.

Gwen Stacy.

- Gwen Stacy.

- She works for you.

Really? She works for me?

- She does work-study at Oscorp.

- Is she a model employee?

(LAUGHS)

You know, when my

father sent me away

I tried to forget

everything about this place.

I guess that kind of included you.

You ain't gotta explain

anything to me, man.

We both got dumped.

You ever figure out

why your parents bailed?

My dad left a briefcase.

That's all I got,

briefcase full of junk.

Whatever. I don't know.

I try not to think about it.

How's that working out for you?

Perfectly.

Dude. Nice arm.

It's just the wrist. It's just all

in the wrist, buddy.

(OVER SPEAKER) You could do it too

if you just strengthened up that.

HARRY:
Yeah, right.

You gotta admit, though. Things

have gotten crazy around here, man.

Giant lizards

and spider guys.

Just one guy. Just one spider man.

Or woman. We don't know for sure.

Whatever, dude. He wears spandex

to rescue kittens from trees.

I'm so impressed.

I kind of like to think

he gives people hope.

For what?

Maybe eventually

everything's gonna be all right.

Yeah, I just wish I had time

for "eventually."

MENKEN:
Who was he?

MAN:
Maxwell Dillon.

Electrical engineer.

No associates or friends

to speak of.

He submitted specs for the grid

that we appropriated.

The guy was

invisible.

Wall Street's nervous enough

with that child, Harry, taking over.

We've gotta find a way

to get him out.

In the meantime, if the press

gets hold of this accident,

our stock will crater.

So make sure this Mr. Dillon

stays invisible.

This could prove useful for us

in the future.

"SONG FOR ZULA" PLAYING)

Hey.

(HORNS HONKING)

(BICYCLE BELL RINGING)

Some say love

Is a burning thing

(TIRES SCREECHING

AND HORNS HONKING)

DRIVER:

Hey, moron! Get out of the street!

A fiery ring

Oh, but I know love

As a fading thing

Just as fickle as

A feather in a stream

Hey. Hi.

I saw love

Hi.

You look amazing.

It put its face up to my face

I'm sorry for the spontaneous

outreach. It was kind of...

No. I don't... I... Spontaneous...

is all right. You know.

Well, I just figured it was time.

You know?

Time that we try to be friends.

Yeah.

Friends, yeah. That's...

great.

I just don't want us

to be complicated.

I was just saying that

to someone. I hate complicated.

Keep it simple.

Okay, great, great. Yeah,

yeah, yeah. All right.

Well, I mean...

Ha, ha. If we're gonna be friends, I think

we gotta establish some ground rules.

- Some ground rules?

- Yeah, some ground rules.

- Heh, heh. Heh.

- Like that.

Like what?

- That laugh. That laugh.

- What?

That's off the table.

- My laugh is off the table?

- Off the table.

You gotta figure out

a more annoying laugh.

(LAUGHS LOUDLY)

That's still adorable.

- That was not adorable.

- It's adorable.

No, it's not adorable.

- Okay. I have a ground rule. Um...

- Oh, good.

- What is it?

- Uh...

Don't tell me that I look amazing

with your big brown doe eyes. Okay?

I'm really serious about that one.

- Oh, no.

- What?

I just figured out

the next ground rule.

What?

No more of this.

No more of this little

nose rub that you do.

- This?

- Don't think I haven't... Hey.

What am I supposed to do?

It's allergy season.

This is killing me.

You're just spitting in the face

of my ground rules. I'm out.

Come on. Heh.

First we get ice cream,

and then I'm out.

(MAX COUGHING)

(HORNS HONKING

AND CAR ALARMS WAILING)

()

Um, yeah. So I did that.

And I got completely addicted to

this place that has Korean meatballs.

- Yeah. No, I know.

- Have you been there? It's mind-blowing.

That place on 6th. I know.

You love it there.

()

How do you know that?

- Hm?

- How do you know I love it there?

Because, um...

Because you told me.

(EXHALING RAPIDLY)

It just opened last month.

(CHUCKLES)

Have you been following me?

I knew it.

How often?

Just once a day.

Sometimes.

Sometimes more.

Oh, boy.

Why?

Make sure I'm safe?

- And...

- And what?

And because it's the closest

I can get to still being with you.

I'm moving to England.

What?

Yeah. Um...

I have a... I'm up for a

scholarship to Oxford.

In molecular medicine. And it's

between me and this other kid.

There's this oral exam

that we have to do

and he's, like, a freshman

in college, but he's 14.

And... And it's... it could be him.

But it might be me. I hope it's me.

And I'm thinking that

I'll be moving to England.

- Wow.

- Yeah.

And I'm really excited.

That's, uh...

England.

What?

(CHATTERING)

(WOMAN SHRIEKS)

Station, I need a 10-85.

Send out additional units to the

south-end corner of Duffy Square.

Folks, could you step to the side?

Everybody get out of the

way! Get out of the way!

Sir, get your hands away

from the cables right now!

Sir, get your hands

away from the cables!

Let me see your hands, please!

You stay right where you are!

Do not move!

Freeze! Get down! On the ground!

(ALL CLAMORING AND SIRENS WAILING)

COP 1:
Get down on the ground, now!

Stop!

COP 2 (OVER MEGAPHONE): Get

your ass down on the ground! Now!

- It's not my fault!

- COP 2:
Sir!

- MAX:
Stop!
