Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man 1x7

1. We're a dynamic duo, you know? We tell each other everything.

2. Everything?

3. Harry was trying to tell me that you're—

4. - This ain't over. - They're a crew that showed up recently.

5. Call themselves the Scorpions.

6. Carmilla hasn't made any more moves against us.

7. She was probably just trying to freak you out.

8. We'll keep you safe.

9. I can tell you're young. You're trying to do the right thing.

10. But this isn't it. Osborn is hiding something.

11. I've been doing research into the devices you encountered on those criminals.

12. Otto Octavius.

13. If we stop Octavius, we stop his designs from getting into the wrong hands.

14. The plan worked. He led me right to their hideout.

15. Good work.

16. Let me just say, you're gorgeous!

17. Nico! Wait!

18. - Sorry, excuse me. Nico! - What?

19. Nico, please, just talk to me.

20. You really outdid yourself on this one, Peter.

21. So, tell me, what could the dynamic duo possibly fight about?

22. Oh, um...

23. You know, we just...

24. I... I messed up, big time, and I don't know how to fix it.

25. At least you know what you did wrong.

26. Uh-oh.

27. Watch out!

28. And have you talked to Lonnie recently?

29. He would have to stop ignoring me for that to happen.

30. Well, I didn't know it was that serious.

31. I was worried that he hadn't been at school,

32. but I figured you would know why.

33. I just wish he would tell me what's going on.

34. It's obvious something's been bothering him for a while. I—

35. - I just want to know if it's me. - What?

36. Pearl, there's no way it's you!

37. You're incredible, and Lonnie knows it.

38. Then, why won't he just talk to me?

39. We're supposed to be partners

40. and he doesn't trust me enough

41. to tell me what he's going through!

42. How am I supposed to not think it's me?

43. Sometimes, we keep things from the people we care about

44. because we wanna protect them.

45. I decide what I can and can't handle.

46. That... That's not someone else's choice to make.

47. Sorry to burden you with all this.

48. You can burden me anytime!

49. I mean, not that you're a burden to me or anything, I just— You know...

50. Thanks, Petey. It means a lot.

51. I wish I could stay, but I've got my internship so, I have to run,

52. but if you ever need anything, I'm always available to—

53. Oh! Oh, no! I... I got it.

54. See you later, Pearl.

55. Never change, Petey.

56. - You spittin' facts, baby! - Yeah, That's right!

57. - Oh, man... - How are you guys so calm?

58. You're not even slightly worried about the Scorpions chasing us all over Harlem?

59. Scorpions know whose turf this is.

60. And if they didn't get the hint from the last time they tried us,

61. well, we'll be more than ready for round two.

62. That's right. That's what's up. Yeah, that's true.

63. - Hey, Mom. - Lonnie, where are you?

64. You weren't in your room this morning.

65. Did you leave last night?

66. Yeah, yeah, I spent the night over at Mike's.

67. He needed a bit 'a tutoring for chemistry.

68. Just make sure you call next time.

69. I... I don't mean to worry,

70. but Dre seems to be finding his way back to us

71. and things are finally getting back to normal.

72. Eh?

73. Ah, don't worry, Mom. I have everything under control.

74. Okay, sweetheart.

75. I'll see you later. I love you.

76. I love you, too.

77. Love you, Mommy!

78. Hey, superstar momma's boy!

79. Yo! You think it's funny?

80. Let your momma know she loved?

81. - Our bad, D. - Don't sweat them fools.

82. Come on, Tombstone. You're one of us now.

83. And the One Tenth ain't gonna let no one hurt the people on our turf.

84. I... I love my mom, too.

85. Mr. Osborn, sir? Dr. Connors said you wanted to see me?

86. Yes, come in, Peter.

87. Activate security protocol.

88. That'll never not be cool.

89. I've got Oscorp's mass spectrometer working in sync with our satellite

90. to locate Octavius by tracking the energy left behind by his weapons.

91. I just need to identify the type of elements

92. he's using to trace their energy output back to the source.

93. Um, what about deuterium?

94. Hmm. Not strong enough.

95. Tritium?

96. Even Octavius would have a hard time finding that.

97. Mm... Solar?

98. I doubt he's managed to harness the power of the sun.

99. Well, are there any elements from the signal

100. that you were able to identify?

101. I found some traces of lead, but it was a mixture.

102. Lead? Hmm.

103. What if it's a lead-polyethylene-boron composite?

104. That would explain why the lead reading came out as a mixture!

105. Uh, not to mention boron carbide stands out

106. since it has extraordinary properties like ultra-high hardness,

107. low density, and high temperature strength.

108. The biggest use for that kind of composite is for nuclear shielding.

109. - Particularly with— - Gamma Radiation...

110. He wouldn't really use that stuff, right?

111. I mean, he has to know how dangerous it is,

112. especially as a power source.

113. I mean, if the casing surrounding it were to overheat,

114. it can melt and cause severe radiation burns, uh, poisoning.

115. It could even fuse with someone's skin.

116. You know, one of the last conversations

117. I had with Otto was about Gamma.

118. He argued that we were holding ourselves back

119. by not experimenting with its properties.

120. I put my foot down...

121. and he called me a coward.

122. Sir?

123. Good work, Peter.

124. Thanks to you, we'll be able to get Octavius

125. and his weapons off the street for good.

126. This is the first step to—

127. Code red, evacuate the area of east 42nd street.

128. Multiple injuries reported. Threat is still at large.

129. Judging by its energy output,

130. this must be a new piece of tech created by Octavius.

131. Looks like it's headed towards Harlem.

132. - Suit up, Peter. - On it.

133. Wait, where's Harry? Shouldn't we tell him what's happening?

134. It's fine. I'll run point with you.

135. Harry's taking care of a personal matter today.

136. "Hey, Nico, how's life?"

137. No, um... "Oh, Nico, you live here?"

138. No! All right, come on, Harry.

139. Just relax. You can handle a conversation.

140. Uh, hello, there.

141. I've noticed you've been pacing outside our door for a while.

142. Is everything all right?

143. Oh, sorry. I might be at the wrong house.

144. I'm looking for a girl named Nico?

145. No, you're at the right place.

146. She's one of my foster kids.

147. Let me get her.

148. Nico! Someone's here to see you!

149. - Coming. - One.

150. You're it! Come on!

151. I'll just let you kids talk.

152. He is so cute!

153. Susan!

154. What do you want, Osborn?

155. Well, I... I wanted to, uh—

156. Sorry, one sec.

157. No, that's for Kyla. No, that's for the Nike board of directors...

158. Hold on, it's here, just let me sort by...

159. Okay, bye.

160. Wait! Please, just...

161. Can we talk?

162. Wanna get some food?

163. Sure, but you're buying.

164. And just so you know, I eat. A lot.

165. Cool view, huh?

166. I love coming up here when I need to, you know,

167. - get away from all the cameras. - Fine, I'll hear him out.

168. pretty draining having people constantly vying for your attention.

169. I'm sure.

170. So did you need something,

171. or do you just pay for people's food to flaunt your money?

172. I wanted to ask you to forgive Peter.

173. Of course, you do.

174. Let me guess, he put you up to this?

175. This is all on me.

176. Look, it wasn't my place to tell you Peter's secret

177. and I know I really messed things up between you two.

178. - I'm just trying to fix it. - Why?

179. Peter's clearly more than content to keep me out of the loop

180. while you guys play hero.

181. No need to have me join the gang now.

182. It's not like he became a hero to spite you.

183. He just wants to help people.

184. Right, and I'm sure he's doing wonderful things out there.

185. How could he not with his new bestie as his rich kid sidekick?

186. What is wrong with you?

187. Do you hate the idea of him being a hero that much?

188. It's not about him being a hero.

189. It's about him moving on and leaving me behind...

190. just like everyone else.

191. Nico...

192. Peter would never leave you behind.

193. - You're his best friend. - He already has.

194. Every time he ignored me or ditched me, he was out playing superhero with you.

195. Look, you're constantly surrounded by people that adore you.

196. I wouldn't expect you to understand.

197. Right. Because there's no way someone like me could ever understand you.

198. Look, I know you wanna blame me for ruining everything,

199. but the reality is,

200. I'm not the one who kept all this a secret from you in the first place.

201. Sorry.

202. The truth is Peter is actually the first friend I've had in a while

203. that wasn't trying to use me for money or likes.

204. And if it makes you feel better,

205. Peter didn't intentionally bring me on to team Spider-Man.

206. I only found out

207. because I was in the right place at the right time.

208. Funny how that works out.

209. I can tell that this isn't going to work.

210. I'll drive you home.

211. - I'm sorry. - What?

212. Oh, I... I didn't hear that.

213. You're gonna have to speak up.

214. I said, nice car.

215. I can't even drive yet,

216. and you could probably break the sound barrier with this thing.

217. You know, I could teach you...

218. - if you'd like. - What?

219. Yeah. It'll be fun. Come on.

220. Requesting backup to east 42nd street,

221. multiple explosions from an unknown source.

222. All units, respond.

223. Peter, have you found it yet?

224. Not yet, sir.

225. Whatever this thing is, it's causing a lot of damage.

226. Could you use that spectrometer thing to get another ping?

227. Where are you, Octavius?

228. - Sir? Hello? - Oh, yes.

229. I'll sync the spectrometer with your suit.

230. It should allow you to track the energy like a beacon.

231. Got it! Thanks, Mr. Osborn.

232. I'd say that attempt was pretty successful.

233. Well, at least, you didn't run the stop sign this time.

234. You know, maybe this is my sign from the universe to stick to the subway.

235. You're doing fine.

236. I crashed my dad's Audi the first time I tried to drive.

237. Besides, who needs the subway

238. when you have the great Harry Osborn as your teacher.

239. Damn! Nice ride.

240. Wait, I know you.

241. You're that Osborn brat.

242. Lemme guess,

243. you letting your lil' goth girlfriend joyride to Hot Topic?

244. Uh-oh! Don't let Mommy find out.

245. - Hey! - It's okay. Let's just go.

246. I'm not the one who has to add fire on my car

247. to make it seem like it's going fast.

248. Though kudos for making it match your life,

249. considering both seem to be up in flames.

250. You wanna mess with me, Beetlejuice?

251. I'll race you right now and put you in your place.

252. Let's do it.

253. First one to the sub shop, eight blocks down.

254. Wait, what?

255. What up, y'all? It's ya boy Klev.

256. I was just here hanging out,

257. but it looks like a street race is about to pop off,

258. so you know I had to bring it to ya, right now live, on KlevTV.

259. Hey, you. Count us down.

260. Okay, just so y'all know,

261. earlier when you had called her "Beetlejuice,"

262. I think what you actually meant was Lydia.

263. - That's the girl who— - Just count.

264. Nico, we really shouldn't do this.

265. You're just learning how to drive. Remember that stop sign?

266. Three!

267. Don't worry, Osborn.

268. - I had a pretty okay teacher. - Two!

269. One!

270. Hey! I got next!

271. Can't this thing go any faster?

272. - Only if we turn on track mode. - Then turn on track mode!

273. Oh, come on! That was not fair!

274. Stupid Lydia, God!

275. - That was— - I know, I'm sorry.

276. I shouldn't have done that with your car—

277. Awesome! Oh, man! That was so sick!

278. I can't believe you actually won

279. after barely learning how to turn a corner!

280. - I know. I'm pretty great. - I'll say.

281. I mean, you're never driving my car again but that was amazing!

282. Fair enough.

283. Holy crap! Is that Harry Osborn?

284. I take it back. Drive!

285. Yo, Tombstone.

286. You got someone here to see you.

287. Pearl? What are you doin' here?

288. - I can't believe you're actually here. - Uh-oh. Somebody got girl problems.

289. Look out!

290. - Sorry, I gotta take this. - I'm gonna go over here, bruh.

291. I didn't believe your brother

292. when he said that this was where you had been going

293. - but I had to come check just in c— - My brother?

294. Okay, look, it doesn't matter.

295. Pearl, you need to leave.

296. - You shouldn't be here. It's not safe. - Yeah?

297. Then why are you here?

298. Lonnie, I am not an idiot.

299. Dre told me everything.

300. He's worried about you, Lon!

301. We both are.

302. I mean, a gang?

303. This isn't your world.

304. You don't play around with this stuff.

305. Please, just let us help you.

306. I don't need your help.

307. Or anyone else's for that matter. I have everything under—

308. Knock, knock.

309. Can Donovan come out to play?

310. Yo, get in there! What's wrong with you?

311. He's still standing!

312. Hope you don't mind

313. I brought a knife to a gunfight.

314. A true host greets his guest...

315. when they come to his home.

316. Guess I'll just have to teach you some manners.

317. Stay here.

318. Mm-hmm.

319. Now, to finish what we started.

320. Ah.

321. Just the person I was looking for.

322. Let's set an example.

323. Oh, oh, oh!

324. Let's see what happens

325. when you try to play hero.

326. Mind if I give it a shot?

327. Lonnie? What's he doing here?

328. Pearl!

329. It's okay, miss. I got ya.

330. - Don't worry, you're— - Safe!

331. Lady, you and your... friend need to run, now!

332. - Mm-hmm. - We gotta go!

333. It's okay, Lon. I got you.

334. Are you seeing this, Mr. Osborn?

335. Hmm.

336. And I thought the lady with the helmet was weird but a tail?

337. Okay, shouldn't have insulted the tail.

338. Well, I can't say I'll be joining NASCAR just yet,

339. but I think that was a pretty successful first attempt at driving.

340. Forget NASCAR.

341. It's the Fast and Furious kind of life for you.

342. I had a really good time getting to know you, Nico.

343. Thanks again for hearing me out.

344. Well, it's not like I could pass up free food.

345. Right. Well. Have a good night.

346. Mm.

347. Wait!

348. I...

349. I'm sorry. You were right.

350. Before I even met you,

351. I pegged you as a vapid, rich, pretty boy, and didn't give you a chance.

352. It was wrong of me to judge you like you that, and...

353. you're not too bad.

354. Maybe you are a good friend to Pete.

355. Well, you weren't completely wrong on all accounts.

356. I am definitely a pretty boy.

357. So, everything's Gucci?

358. We're Gucci.

359. Great. I'll let Peter know and then—

360. What? No. I'm still mad at Pete.

361. Peter and I are supposed to be best friends.

362. Since the day we met, he's been like a brother to me,

363. but this whole time...

364. he's been keeping this major secret.

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

366. That's not something I can just get over.

367. I mean, I think he just wanted to protect you.

368. Trust me, having power also means having a lot of enemies.

369. It's one thing to risk your own life,

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

371. Maybe that was just the risk

372. he wasn't willing to take.

373. I can't control how you feel about Peter

374. but, um, hopefully, moving forward,

375. you can count me as one of your friends too?

376. This time you could give me a real tarot reading.

377. I would love to.

378. Though don't blame me if your reading comes out bad.

379. See you around, Nico.

380. Back at ya, Osb— Harry.

381. Come on, araña.

382. Don't tell me you're too afraid to fight a Scorpion?

383. Scorpion, no.

384. Psycho pretending to be a Scorpion, yes!

385. Huh?

386. Ouch. That did some damage.

387. He's not letting me reach him with that tail.

388. Oh, yes. Use your environment, Peter.

389. I think he had the same idea.

390. Try cutting through this!

391. Wow, you did it.

392. Well, this was super fun, but I think it's time to wrap things up.

393. If you ever need another butt-kicking,

394. just look for your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man.

395. Huh?

396. Out of web fluid.

397. Well, he's all tied up, sir. That psycho took all the web I had.

398. - Nice job, Peter. - Thanks, Mr. Osborn.

399. I mean, I'm getting pretty good at this. I guess I'll head back.

400. Sounds good.

401. All right, Scorpion guy,

402. just wait here while I find a pest control professional to take you—

403. Uh...

404. Stop it! That thing is overheating!

405. You think this hurts?

406. This is nothing!

407. Nothing to me!

408. Mr. Osborn, he just tore out of my webbing. Any ideas?

409. Mr. Osborn?

410. Oh, shoot...

411. Whoa!

412. Play nice.

413. Now when you calm down, you can have your tail back.

414. Mr. Osborn, any other ideas?

415. Come out, come out, old friend.

416. I found you, Otto.

417. Peter, what just happened?

418. Mr. Osborn.

419. I'm getting reports that your suit has been punctured.

420. That shouldn't be possible.

421. It's possible.

422. Please, I... I need your help, sir.

423. Sorry, araña.

424. This is one fight you won't crawl away from.

425. Help.

426. Huh?

427. All right! Your little tricks won't work on me!

428. Come and fight me, you coward!

429. Spider-Man!

430. Climb on!

431. Next time, I'll finish you for good, araña!
