00:07:28,815 --> 00:07:31,516
to simulate
neuronal cell bodies
in human gray matter?
179
00:07:32,986 --> 00:07:35,353
[sighs]
I came to tell you
180
00:07:35,388 --> 00:07:37,422
that I retrieved
all my equipment
181
00:07:37,457 --> 00:07:41,693
and am exiting Horizon
for the final time.
182
00:07:41,728 --> 00:07:43,662
Good-bye, Doctor.
183
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:48,400
Hmm.
184
00:07:49,736 --> 00:07:52,003
Otto. That idea--
185
00:07:52,038 --> 00:07:53,304
simulated gray matter.
186
00:07:53,339 --> 00:07:54,939
What made you think of it?
187
00:07:54,974 --> 00:07:56,374
Like I mentioned,
188
00:07:56,409 --> 00:07:58,376
I recently obtained
a few more doctorates,
189
00:07:58,411 --> 00:08:00,445
including one
in neurochemistry.
190
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:02,113
Not to sound overconfident,
191
00:08:02,148 --> 00:08:04,182
but I am certain
it would work.
192
00:08:04,217 --> 00:08:06,718
I'll put it
under consideration.
193
00:08:08,054 --> 00:08:10,689
[Silver Sable]
Everything is in alignment.
194
00:08:17,997 --> 00:08:20,064
Boom! If a camera
webbed to my wrist
195
00:08:20,099 --> 00:08:22,133
can't get decent footage
to sell to the Bugle,
196
00:08:22,168 --> 00:08:24,235
maybe this drone
can do the job.
197
00:08:24,270 --> 00:08:25,670
Let's test you out.
198
00:08:25,705 --> 00:08:27,338
Ohh, nice!
199
00:08:27,373 --> 00:08:29,541
Big bucks, here I come.
200
00:08:31,544 --> 00:08:32,544
[beeping]
201
00:08:34,180 --> 00:08:35,080
Hmm.
202
00:08:38,685 --> 00:08:40,852
Something's not right.
203
00:08:40,887 --> 00:08:42,087
Show your hall pass.
204
00:08:48,061 --> 00:08:49,060
[grunts]
205
00:08:52,231 --> 00:08:53,231
Boo!
206
00:08:54,567 --> 00:08:57,068
Man, this is a bad day
to be a security bot.
207
00:08:57,103 --> 00:09:01,072
Ah. Horizon's spider mascot.
208
00:09:01,107 --> 00:09:02,907
Our client said
we might run into you.
209
00:09:02,942 --> 00:09:05,209
Whoa. "We"?
210
00:09:05,244 --> 00:09:07,211
Wild Pack.
211
00:09:07,246 --> 00:09:09,213
You thought the police
could hold me?
212
00:09:09,248 --> 00:09:11,015
Round two, kid.
213
00:09:11,050 --> 00:09:14,686
And this time I've brought
some friends to the party.
214
00:09:14,721 --> 00:09:17,221
Something about the name
"Wild Pack" tells me
215
00:09:17,256 --> 00:09:19,291
this isn't going to be
a slumber party, is it?
216
00:09:21,494 --> 00:09:24,062
Paladin, Puma,
Battlestar.
217
00:09:24,097 --> 00:09:26,631
We've studied his moves.
Take him down.
218
00:09:26,666 --> 00:09:28,500
Uhh!
219
00:09:30,803 --> 00:09:33,371
You've studied me?
I'm flattered.
220
00:09:33,406 --> 00:09:36,074
Of course.
We're professionals.
221
00:09:36,109 --> 00:09:39,110
You didn't really
think I was stealing
from Oscorp, did you?
222
00:09:41,681 --> 00:09:42,880
Uhh!
223
00:09:42,915 --> 00:09:44,382
Wild Pack, target acquired!
224
00:09:44,417 --> 00:09:45,517
Move out!
225
00:09:51,157 --> 00:09:53,257
[groaning]
226
00:09:53,292 --> 00:09:55,961
Oh, good.
Glad you got all that.
227
00:09:58,164 --> 00:10:00,231
Okay. Four weirdoes
in bizarre costumes
228
00:10:00,266 --> 00:10:02,233
can't just disappear
without a trace, can they?
229
00:10:02,268 --> 00:10:04,235
Of course, this is New York
I'm talking about.
230
00:10:04,270 --> 00:10:06,070
[Doc Ock]
Help me! Anyone!
231
00:10:06,105 --> 00:10:08,239
[muffled grunting]
232
00:10:08,274 --> 00:10:12,110
Doc Ock, do I even want
to know how you got
into this situation?
233
00:10:12,145 --> 00:10:13,311
Aah!
234
00:10:14,514 --> 00:10:15,913
Did they get away?
235
00:10:15,948 --> 00:10:17,281
I heard commotion
at Horizon
236
00:10:17,316 --> 00:10:18,916
and saw that group
237
00:10:18,951 --> 00:10:20,485
of oddly-dressed
individuals
238
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:22,654
running off
with the Neuro Cortex.
239
00:10:22,689 --> 00:10:24,022
I tried to stop them,
240
00:10:24,057 --> 00:10:25,523
but they clearly have
technology
241
00:10:25,558 --> 00:10:27,158
I was not prepared for.
242
00:10:27,193 --> 00:10:28,860
Yeah, well, now they have
some more tech,
243
00:10:28,895 --> 00:10:30,128
and that's a big problem.
244
00:10:30,163 --> 00:10:31,429
I'll help you track them.
245
00:10:31,464 --> 00:10:34,032
The Neuro Cortex
in the wrong hands
246
00:10:34,067 --> 00:10:36,267
could spell
unmitigated disaster.
247
00:10:36,302 --> 00:10:38,269
I am aware of its
dangerous potential
248
00:10:38,304 --> 00:10:40,304
because I recently obtained
a few doctorates--
249
00:10:40,339 --> 00:10:42,340
In neurochemistry.
250
00:10:42,375 --> 00:10:43,875
Yeah, you mentioned that.
251
00:10:43,910 --> 00:10:45,109
How do you know that?
252
00:10:45,144 --> 00:10:48,046
I haven't seen you
in months, Spider-Man.
253
00:10:48,081 --> 00:10:50,114
[chuckling]
Uh, oh, oh, yeah, right.
254
00:10:50,149 --> 00:10:52,116
I mean, that's--
th-that's what I heard.
255
00:10:52,151 --> 00:10:54,285
Eh, c-congrats.
Doctorates are great.
256
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:55,119
Love 'em.
257
00:10:55,154 --> 00:10:56,854
Since they're now
long gone,
258
00:10:56,889 --> 00:10:58,289
the first thing
we need to do is--
259
00:10:58,324 --> 00:10:59,657
[chuckling]
Whoa. Whoa.
260
00:10:59,692 --> 00:11:01,459
There is no "we" here.
261
00:11:01,494 --> 00:11:03,461
I'm on this. This is me.
262
00:11:03,496 --> 00:11:08,032
But I'm offering my brilliance
to assist you, for free.
263
00:11:08,067 --> 00:11:11,669
Ock, call me crazy, but I
don't exactly trust you.
264
00:11:11,704 --> 00:11:14,138
Look, we don't have the best
history, you and me.
265
00:11:14,173 --> 00:11:15,807
[sighs]
266
00:11:15,842 --> 00:11:17,241
Did you know Edison said
267
00:11:17,276 --> 00:11:19,644
he failed almost
a thousand times
268
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,346
before he streamlined
the design of the light bulb?
269
00:11:22,381 --> 00:11:25,983
That he was completely
dismissed by his peers?
270
00:11:26,018 --> 00:11:30,088
If he had not been given
more opportunities
to prove his worth,
271
00:11:30,123 --> 00:11:32,023
we would never
have benefited
272
00:11:32,058 --> 00:11:34,192
from his world-changing
discoveries.
273
00:11:34,227 --> 00:11:36,594
I know second chances
don't come easily,
274
00:11:36,629 --> 00:11:40,164
but, like Edison,
I am not going to give up.
275
00:11:40,199 --> 00:11:44,035
I don't expect you
to understand, Spider-Man.
276
00:11:48,274 --> 00:11:50,208
No shock that mercenaries
like the Wild Pack
277
00:11:50,243 --> 00:11:52,210
don't exactly have
home addresses.
278
00:11:52,245 --> 00:11:54,278
Huh. But who hired them?
279
00:11:54,313 --> 00:11:56,848
I wonder if anybody
at the Daily Bugle could--
280
00:11:56,883 --> 00:11:59,183
Oh, no. I have to get
my footage in within the hour
281
00:11:59,218 --> 00:12:00,952
to make the deadline!
282
00:12:02,288 --> 00:12:03,588
[J. Jonah Jameson]
Ha ha ha!
283
00:12:03,623 --> 00:12:06,190
Now, this is
what I'm talking about!
284
00:12:06,225 --> 00:12:08,560
Brock, get in here!
285
00:12:11,230 --> 00:12:13,965
Look at this fantastic
footage of Spider-Man
this kid took.
286
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:15,967
And he's still
in middle school.
287
00:12:16,002 --> 00:12:17,135
Hmph.
288
00:12:17,170 --> 00:12:18,803
High school.
Same difference.
289
00:12:18,838 --> 00:12:20,404
What grade are you in, Brock?
290
00:12:20,439 --> 00:12:23,107
Parker, you keep bringing me
this kind of footage,
291
00:12:23,142 --> 00:12:25,243
I'll keep writing you
these kinds of checks. Betty!
292
00:12:26,646 --> 00:12:27,846
[angry groan]
293
00:12:31,651 --> 00:12:34,319
One more of these,
and this month's tuition
will be no problem.
294
00:12:36,155 --> 00:12:37,622
The first day of school's
tomorrow.
295
00:12:37,657 --> 00:12:39,257
We have no other projects
296
00:12:39,292 --> 00:12:40,958
that could take its place
for the year?
297
00:12:40,993 --> 00:12:43,161
A cyber-chemical interface
298
00:12:43,196 --> 00:12:45,396
of the Neuro Cortex's
complexity?
299
00:12:45,431 --> 00:12:47,331
None of our other projects
is even close
300
00:12:47,366 --> 00:12:48,633
to that level of ingenuity.
301
00:12:48,668 --> 00:12:51,369
The year's funding
is based on it.
302
00:12:53,339 --> 00:12:55,072
Cyber-chemical interface.
303
00:12:55,107 --> 00:12:57,175
I've been trying
to track the Wild Pack
304
00:12:57,210 --> 00:12:59,844
when I should
have been tracking
the Neuro Cortex itself.
305
00:12:59,879 --> 00:13:02,413
The Cortex uses a chemical
with a rare heat signature,
306
00:13:02,448 --> 00:13:05,249
which is a lot easier to find
than dangerous mercenaries.
307
00:13:05,284 --> 00:13:06,684
[Silver Sable]
Two things. One,
308
00:13:06,719 --> 00:13:08,286
I'm impressed you found us.
309
00:13:08,321 --> 00:13:10,354
Our client picked
this transfer location
310
00:13:10,389 --> 00:13:11,289
for its isolation.
311
00:13:11,324 --> 00:13:13,624
And two, I can't believe
312
00:13:13,659 --> 00:13:16,327
you just walked out
into the open like that.
313
00:13:16,362 --> 00:13:19,297
We literally saw you
a mile away.
314
00:13:19,332 --> 00:13:21,766
But on the bright side,
my tracker works.
315
00:13:21,801 --> 00:13:24,101
You should have left us alone.
316
00:13:24,136 --> 00:13:27,471
Unless, of course,
you want to pay us off
317
00:13:27,506 --> 00:13:29,307
and buy back the device.
318
00:13:29,342 --> 00:13:32,844
What? That's all it would take?
Just buy it from you?
319
00:13:32,879 --> 00:13:35,513
[chuckles]
Everyone has a price.
320
00:13:35,548 --> 00:13:37,982
Say, 1.2 million.
321
00:13:38,017 --> 00:13:40,484
I'm a little short
on the 1.2 million,
322
00:13:40,519 --> 00:13:43,387
but I might be able
to scrounge up ten bucks.
323
00:13:43,422 --> 00:13:44,556
Wild Pack...
324
00:13:45,892 --> 00:13:48,526
keep him away
from the Neuro Cortex.
325
00:13:49,762 --> 00:13:51,462
Delta-14 formation!
326
00:13:51,497 --> 00:13:54,799
Wait. You have actual
fight plans? Whoa!
327
00:13:54,834 --> 00:13:57,168
I'm used to villain teams
just yelling stuff out like,
328
00:13:57,203 --> 00:13:58,502
"Crush the spider!"
329
00:13:58,537 --> 00:13:59,337
[grunts]
330
00:14:01,540 --> 00:14:02,506
Ta-da!
331
00:14:02,541 --> 00:14:04,141
Oh! Aah!
332
00:14:04,176 --> 00:14:05,743
You're rather juvenile
333
00:14:05,778 --> 00:14:07,845
for a superhero, aren't you?
334
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:09,547
[voice cracks]
I'm older than you think.
335
00:14:09,582 --> 00:14:12,383
Nope. Ha. My voice totally
did not just crack.
336
00:14:12,418 --> 00:14:15,887
It's been a pleasure,
but this ends now.
337
00:14:15,922 --> 00:14:18,522
[growling]
Puma, destroy him.
338
00:14:18,557 --> 00:14:19,690
[snarling]
339
00:14:19,725 --> 00:14:21,759
The offer to buy you
out still stand?
340
00:14:21,794 --> 00:14:24,429
'Cause that ten dollars
is burning a hole
in my pocket.
341
00:14:26,299 --> 00:14:28,733
[grunt]
[Silver Sable]
Puma, destroy him.
342
00:14:31,570 --> 00:14:35,273
[Doc Ock]
Behold! The return
of the Octopus!
343
00:14:35,308 --> 00:14:39,110
Fighting valiantly on the side
of goodness and virtue.
344
00:14:39,145 --> 00:14:40,111
[grunts]
345
00:14:40,146 --> 00:14:41,679
Aah! [fretting]
346
00:14:41,714 --> 00:14:43,114
Never thought I'd say this,
347
00:14:43,149 --> 00:14:45,316
but I am so glad
to see you right now.
348
00:14:46,886 --> 00:14:48,386
How did you find me?
With this.
349
00:14:48,421 --> 00:14:51,222
I remembered the Neuro Cortex
uses a chemical
350
00:14:51,257 --> 00:14:53,124
with a rare
radiation signature.
351
00:14:53,159 --> 00:14:54,358
[Spider-Man]
So you developed
a tracker
352
00:14:54,393 --> 00:14:55,726
that could zero in
on the signature.
353
00:14:55,761 --> 00:14:57,829
I did the exact same thing.
354
00:14:59,098 --> 00:15:00,097
[Doc Ock]
Really?
355
00:15:00,132 --> 00:15:01,966
The Spider-Man
knows science?
356
00:15:04,270 --> 00:15:05,603
I have my moments.
357
00:15:08,574 --> 00:15:11,242
Clearly we are more alike
than we both realized.
358
00:15:11,277 --> 00:15:12,576
Huhh!
359
00:15:12,611 --> 00:15:15,112
Also, we both represent
multi-limbed creatures
360
00:15:15,147 --> 00:15:16,914
for the purpose of justice.
361
00:15:16,949 --> 00:15:19,183
Epsilon-ten formation!
362
00:15:21,754 --> 00:15:25,156
They utilize tactics
denoted by the Greek
alphabet?
363
00:15:25,191 --> 00:15:27,425
Uh-huh. They have
their own evil playbook.
364
00:15:27,460 --> 00:15:28,960
That's probably something
you could've used
365
00:15:28,995 --> 00:15:30,995
with your Sinister Six.
366
00:15:31,030 --> 00:15:33,097
I never claimed to be
a good supervillain leader.
367
00:15:34,467 --> 00:15:36,400
Continue the formation.
368
00:15:36,435 --> 00:15:37,501
I'm pulling a Sigma-12.
369
00:15:37,536 --> 00:15:39,470
Meet you
at Location Beta.
370
00:15:41,540 --> 00:15:42,940
Why can't you just say
371
00:15:42,975 --> 00:15:44,408
"Finish him off,
I'm running away"?
372
00:15:44,443 --> 00:15:45,877
[snarling]
373
00:15:49,048 --> 00:15:50,581
[growling]
374
00:15:50,616 --> 00:15:52,183
Spider-Man!
375
00:15:57,990 --> 00:16:01,292
Uhh! Impact trauma
to my parietal pleura.
376
00:16:01,327 --> 00:16:03,628
Stay down. I have an idea.
377
00:16:20,012 --> 00:16:22,680
I don't want to be the filling
in a mercenary sandwich.
378
00:16:22,715 --> 00:16:24,382
Huh?
379
00:16:24,417 --> 00:16:26,384
Uhh!
Oof! Uhh!
380
00:16:32,024 --> 00:16:33,724
Ock, I got to get you
to a doctor.
381
00:16:33,759 --> 00:16:37,829
But we can't let Silver Sable
escape with the Cortex.
382
00:16:39,598 --> 00:16:42,967
I developed a backup plan
for this very circumstance.
383
00:16:43,002 --> 00:16:45,569
From this short distance,
[grunts]
384
00:16:45,604 --> 00:16:48,572
my tracker
can radically stimulate
the chemical containment.
385
00:16:48,607 --> 00:16:52,143
Blow it up? We can't
destroy the Neuro Cortex.
386
00:16:52,178 --> 00:16:54,011
Better destroyed
than letting her
387
00:16:54,046 --> 00:16:55,913
sell it to someone
with evil intentions.
388
00:16:55,948 --> 00:16:59,617
We can't stop her in time.
There's no chance.
389
00:17:01,454 --> 00:17:03,121
I bet that's
what they told Edison.
390
00:17:05,691 --> 00:17:07,692
[grunting]
391
00:17:13,132 --> 00:17:14,532
[thump]
Ohh.
392
00:17:14,567 --> 00:17:16,100
Don't you ever quit?
393
00:17:16,135 --> 00:17:18,436
It's really annoying,
isn't it?
394
00:17:23,075 --> 00:17:25,676
[grunting]
395
00:17:25,711 --> 00:17:27,845
You do know
no one's flying
this thing?
396
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:29,047
[both shouting]
397
00:17:32,485 --> 00:17:33,717
Shouldn't have quit
those fencing lessons.
398
00:17:33,752 --> 00:17:35,786
You think
this is a joke?
[grunting]
399
00:17:35,821 --> 00:17:37,688
Of course not.
Under this mask,
400
00:17:37,723 --> 00:17:39,724
I'm making
a super serious face.
401
00:17:43,262 --> 00:17:45,563
Whoa! Aah!
402
00:17:47,133 --> 00:17:48,599
Aah!
403
00:17:52,138 --> 00:17:54,738
[chuckles]
Oh. Sorry.
404
00:17:54,773 --> 00:17:57,041
Should have taken that
ten-spot when I offered.
405
00:17:57,076 --> 00:17:58,276
Your loss.
406
00:17:59,778 --> 00:18:02,646
I was wrong, Spider-Man.
There was a chance.
407
00:18:02,681 --> 00:18:06,550
I am truly starting to learn
that there always is.
408
00:18:06,585 --> 00:18:08,252
Yeah.
409
00:18:08,287 --> 00:18:10,488
That's something I should
probably remember, too.
410
00:18:16,262 --> 00:18:19,430
Hey, Max. We picked up
a little back-to-school supply.
411
00:18:19,465 --> 00:18:20,798
[Max gasps]
412
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:22,566
I don't--
413
00:18:22,601 --> 00:18:23,968
I don't have the words
414
00:18:24,003 --> 00:18:25,603
to express my gratitude,
Spider-Man.
415
00:18:25,638 --> 00:18:28,072
Don't thank me. If it
wasn't for Otto here,
416
00:18:28,107 --> 00:18:30,074
I would have been
Puma food.
417
00:18:30,109 --> 00:18:33,477
A device this advanced
belongs only with a mind
418
00:18:33,512 --> 00:18:35,779
capable of harnessing
its true potential--
419
00:18:35,814 --> 00:18:38,182
yours, Max.
420
00:18:38,217 --> 00:18:41,486
Now, I won't
overstay my welcome.
421
00:18:48,027 --> 00:18:49,593
You realize, Max,
422
00:18:49,628 --> 00:18:51,295
the processing power,
423
00:18:51,330 --> 00:18:53,631
even in the prototype
Neuro Cortex,
424
00:18:53,666 --> 00:18:55,266
could cure poor Aleksei.
425
00:18:55,301 --> 00:18:57,301
With the right parameters,
it could run
426
00:18:57,336 --> 00:18:59,370
through every conceivable
chemical formulation
427
00:18:59,405 --> 00:19:00,504
in minutes.
428
00:19:00,539 --> 00:19:02,507
You think you can save him?
429
00:19:03,709 --> 00:19:05,543
I know I can.
430
00:19:14,153 --> 00:19:16,787
I do not support this idea.
431
00:19:16,822 --> 00:19:18,822
I have some doubts
as well, Anya,
432
00:19:18,857 --> 00:19:20,724
but we've tried
everything else,
433
00:19:20,759 --> 00:19:22,693
and Spider-Man
has faith in Ock.
434
00:19:43,782 --> 00:19:45,516
Huh?
[gasps]
435
00:19:45,551 --> 00:19:46,650
[grunts]
436
00:19:46,685 --> 00:19:48,018
[gasps]
Huh.
437
00:19:48,053 --> 00:19:49,453
Oh.
438
00:19:50,856 --> 00:19:52,223
What?
439
00:19:52,258 --> 00:19:53,891
Where am I?
440
00:19:53,926 --> 00:19:56,427
Oh, I missed a lot,
didn't I?
441
00:19:56,462 --> 00:19:58,863
It's good to have you
back, Aleksei.
442
00:20:00,866 --> 00:20:03,734
And not only is
the Neuro Cortex prototype
443
00:20:03,769 --> 00:20:05,236
returned and operational,
444
00:20:05,271 --> 00:20:07,938
our year-long research project
will be spearheaded
445
00:20:07,973 --> 00:20:13,010
by our returning professor,
Dr. Otto Octavius.
446
00:20:13,045 --> 00:20:14,812
[students exclaiming]
[applause]
447
00:20:19,885 --> 00:20:21,285
[clears throat, coughs]
448
00:20:22,821 --> 00:20:26,624
I know second chances
do not come often.
449
00:20:26,659 --> 00:20:29,894
I swear I will not disappoint
all of you students.
450
00:20:37,102 --> 00:20:40,271
Getting thrown in prison
was never part of the deal.
451
00:20:40,306 --> 00:20:42,573
No, it wasn't.
452
00:20:42,608 --> 00:20:44,475
But have patience, Paladin.
453
00:20:44,510 --> 00:20:46,877
Our client's plans are
454
00:20:46,912 --> 00:20:48,279
long-term.
455
00:20:49,448 --> 00:20:51,515
[chattering]
456
00:20:54,620 --> 00:20:55,786
[Jameson]
Look at this menace.
457
00:20:55,821 --> 00:20:57,288
He causes more damage
458
00:20:57,323 --> 00:20:59,223
than the so-called bad guys
459
00:20:59,258 --> 00:21:00,457
and webs up
innocent students!
460
00:21:00,492 --> 00:21:02,593
But that's not what happened.
461
00:21:02,628 --> 00:21:04,061
Whoa, Pete.
462
00:21:04,096 --> 00:21:06,130
Someone looks like they
just failed a test.
463
00:21:06,165 --> 00:21:08,933
Not that I would know
what that looks like.
464
00:21:09,802 --> 00:21:10,935
It's just...
465
00:21:11,970 --> 00:21:13,170
something didn't turn out
466
00:21:13,205 --> 00:21:14,471
like I thought it would.
467
00:21:14,506 --> 00:21:15,906
So?
468
00:21:15,941 --> 00:21:17,074
What about all the things
469
00:21:17,109 --> 00:21:18,942
that turned out
better than you thought?
470
00:21:18,977 --> 00:21:20,944
Ock's reformed.
Aleksei's back.
471
00:21:20,979 --> 00:21:23,814
Never dwell on the bad, Pete.
472
00:21:23,849 --> 00:21:25,149
You know what happened
to Edison, right?
473
00:21:25,184 --> 00:21:26,283
And Newton?
474
00:21:26,318 --> 00:21:29,153
And Einstein. You're right.
475
00:21:29,188 --> 00:21:31,955
It doesn't matter if you've
failed a thousand times.
476
00:21:31,990 --> 00:21:34,659
There's always a chance
to achieve something great.
