02x25 - Goblin w*r: Part 3

[bunniefuu]

[Spider-Man]
Sometimes when you look
at the big picture,

everything seems okay
in the world.

People going about their lives
day in, day out.

But sometimes,
if you look closer,

just under the surface,
you discover things
aren't as okay as they appear.

You learn that unseen tensions
have been building in secret,
ready to explode.

[Ghost-Spider, Spider-Girl
grunting]

I still can't believe
you got your own g*ng, Electro.

Seriously. How did you find
this many people willing
to hang out with you?

Are you sure you want
sarcastic remarks
to be your last words?

Better than "Aahh!"

What is that
supposed to mean?
Aahh!

I'm going to fry you for that!
[grunts]

[both grunt]

It's time for
two less spiders on--
[grunts]

[groans]

Hey, Electro.
I'm shocked to see you.

[both grunt]

[grunts]

Whoa!
[grunts]

Not really. That was just
some electricity humor.
[muffled grunt]

How'd you know
we were here?

Uh, the spider-bots told me.
Kind of.

[grunts]

Glad they're finally
working right.
[grunts]

[groans]

[grunts]

So, the Vulture's
the Goblin King, huh?

Does that make him
the Vulture King?
Oh! Or the Goblin-Vulture?

How do you know
about Toomes?

I know a lot of things.
[grunts]

[grunts]
Sproing!

Aah!
[screaming]

[groaning]
Like how to overload
your current.

You can't win.

The Goblin Nation
will always support each other.

What's that supposed to mean?

It means when
the Electro Goblins need help,

the w*r Goblins
will be there!

Missiles? Always
with the missiles!

[grunts]
w*r Goblins?

Yeah, of course that's what
a mercenary like Crossbones
would call his g*ng.

Are there Peace Goblins?
If so, I'd rather hang out
with those guys.

[yells, groans]

It's different, at least.
Electro just named

her goblins after herself.

Ego much?

[grunting]
Hold on.
[yelling]

Let me get
the door for you.
Aah!

Goblin units,
try to flank the spiders.

Sneaky-sneaky!
[groans]

w*r Goblins,
Electro Goblins...

Did the jerk store
have a sale?

[laughs]
Do you really think
three spiders in their pj's

stand a chance against
a city full of Goblin gangs?

For the record,
I do not sleep
in this costume.

Can't speak
for the other two, though.
No.

Okay, sometimes naps.
Shut up.

Crossbones,
hold this for me!

Quick, this way!

Sewer? Really?
You got a better idea?

Whoa!

[grunts]
You got us down here.
Let's find a way out.

[laughing]

[all yell]

[laughing]

[all coughing]

Strangely,
diving into sewer water

is not the most
humiliating way

I've ever escaped
a m*ssile attack.

[sniffing]
Ugh!

Is it always
this way for you?

Is it not
like this for you?

[both]
No.

You're new.
Give it some time.

We should be tracking
those Goblin gangs,

not running away.
We're not running away.

If this city is filled
with multiple gangs
carrying that much firepower,

we need to regroup
and rethink.

So, why would you bring us
to some strange,
unmarked building?

[Miles]
I was wondering
the same thing.

Ugh! I got
your call, Spidey.

I think my nose
just died.

What's that smell?

It's Aroma de Barely
Escaping with Our Lives.

Good to see you, Miles.

Now, guys,
don't freak out,

but I need to show you
our secret headquarters.
"Our"?

Greetings, fellow heroes.

Ock? Ock?!

No! No, no, no.
No, not cool.

I know.
It seems weird,
but trust me,

Ock's on
the good side now.

You can tell me
Ock's a good guy
all day, Spidey,

but I'm never gonna
be able to trust him.

Seriously.
I wanted to give him
a second chance myself once.

It did not
turn out well.

[Spider-Girl]
He's played this "I'm reformed"
card before.

I know all that, but--
And let's not forget

some of the other things
he put you through...

recently.

[sighs] Look,
there's no one on earth

who should hate Doctor Octopus
more than me,

so if I say
we should trust him,
I really mean it.

Being a superhero
isn't just about
having superpowers.

It's about being
the best person you can be.

That's what Ock
is trying to do.

I am well aware
that my "dubious" history
is a sore point,

but I am certain
that over time,

I can prove to all of you
that I am no longer
the man I once was.

We'll see
about that, Ock.

But if we're gonna stop Toomes
and his Goblin gangs,

we're gonna need
all the help we can get.

Harry!
Where have you been?

Figuring out what Toomes
could've learned

when he accessed
my Goblin armor,
and it's not good.

Somehow Toomes knew
about my father's
final unbuilt design,

the Invincible
Goblin Mech.

Invincible?
My father designed a mech

that would not only be
formidable by itself,

but when fully functional,
would have the ability

to control any machine
and technology
within its range.

Nothing could beat it.

And you built this thing?

Why would you do
something like that?

I intended it
to be used for good.

For legitimate police
and military actions.

And I designed
a foolproof safety protocol

so no one could activate it
except me.

I don't like
where this is going.

But that's what
Toomes discovered

when he raided
my armor's systems.

I kept the mech's
activation key parts

in three
different locations,
so if anyone found one piece,

it'd be useless
without the others.

And Toomes now knows
exactly where
all three parts are!

We have to beat him to them
before he can activate
the Goblin Mech

and become invincible.

Look, some of us have
worked together for a long time.

Some of us
don't trust each other.

But to stop the Goblin King
from destroying New York,

we need to put
our differences aside.

It's time to be the heroes
this city needs.

What do you think
Toomes needs?

He never called
a meeting before.

Maybe he wants to thank me
for taking out Spider-Man,

saving Electro
and her second-rate g*ng.

You really believe
you crushed Spider-Man?

You're dumber than you look,
which is saying something.

Challenging me?
We can end this here.

Bring it, Crossbones!

She's right.

Spider-Man
and his team survived.

I'm aware there's tension
between all of your gangs,
but I don't care.

I gave you tech
in exchange for loyalty,

and now it is time
to prove your loyalty...

to me.

Spider Team, status report.

[Ghost-Spider]
Ghost-Spider in first position.

Looks clear.
Trying to find a point of entry

so I can grab
my piece of the key.

Miles and I are closing in
on a second location.

So far, not a single sign
of a Goblin.
Not even graffiti.

[Spider-Man] Harry and I
are pulling up to our location
on the Spider-Shifter.

Seems clear here.

Not that I would be able
to tell a difference.

Remember,
the spider-bots' cameras

still cannot see the Goblins
for unknown reasons.

[Spider-Man]
Well, good news.

I called for some help
on that problem.

Hey there, stranger.

Anna Maria.
[stammering]

Spider-Man should have
warned me you were coming.

I-I would have, uh,
s-straightened up the lab.

Looks fine to me.

So, I understand you have
some imaging problems?

I bet together,
you and I could solve this.

Together? Yes.

[Miles]
Nice to be ahead
of the Goblins for once.

All right,
the key should be
around here somewhere.

[electricity arcing]

My hair.
A static charge.

Which means...
[laughs]

Which means me!

It's Ghost-Spider, right?
Nice to meet you.

We're called the Wake Riders.
Heard of us?

[Harry]
Whoo!
[tires screech]

I can't believe we got
all the way here so fast.

This thing is amazing!
If we get through this,

I'll let you take the Shifter
for a drive.

[Ghost-Spider]
Guys! [grunts]
I have company after all!

[Spider-Girl]
Same here. They're onto us.
Spidey, are you all right?

Still all clear here for--
Huh?

[both grunt]

Wait.
Did I say "all clear"?

What's the exact opposite
of that?

Cyber Goblins, attack!

[grunts]
"Cyber Goblins"?

That's what you're
going with, Silvermane?

Okay, I'll call you guys
if I have any problems
with my Internet.

Whoa!
[grunts]

Ow. Well, I'll admit

your tech is pretty
cutting edge.

[chuckles]
Said it.

Stay focused
on our goal, Spidey.

We need our part
of the key.
[grunts]

[grunts]
You're no longer a true Goblin!
[straining]

This mask isn't yours
to wear anymore!

[grunts]

Eat your heart out,
Captain America!

[Doc Ock]
Spidey, Osborn
requires assistance.

Hey, cyberbully!
[tires screech]

What is that thing?

Nanotech over
a simple motorcycle?

You brought nanites
to a cyborg fight?

How stupid are you?

Yeaaah. Not my best idea.
Aah!

Harry, they hit me
with some kind of scrambler!
[static]

The electronics in my mask
are going haywire!

[grunting]

[grunts, groans]

I can't believe I'm saying this,
but we need Ock.

Ock! Ock, are you there?
Ugh. Even my comms are down.

Mine too!
We're on our own.

Spider-Man!
Spider-Man, can you hear me?

Perhaps I can reboot
his comms remotely.

Ugh! There goes
another theory.

I just can't figure out
why the spider-bots
don't see the Goblins.

[Miles]
All right, Spider's Nest,

it's getting
real Gobliny in here.

We gotta get out.
Where's the key?

According to Osborn's data,

the key part
should be in a container
ten feet to your left.

[Spider-Girl]
I see it!
[grunts]

Got it! Ugh!
Nada. Empty.

Blast! Toomes must have
gotten to it first.

Yo, Spider-Newbie,
you seriously think
you can match our skills?

Barkley Blitz,
stunt guy gone bad.

I used to follow you
on social media.

Now I'm thinking "unfollow."

My visor's live-streaming
video of this now.

When we take you down,
it'll go way viral.
Spider-fail.

Don't know how you got
Spider-Man's powers, Ghostie,

but you definitely
didn't get his aim.

[Ghost-Spider]
Hey, quick science fact.

You know the reason
spiders weave webs?

[Goblins grunting]
To trap their prey!

What were you saying
about my aim?

You're right, Blitz.
I bet this video
is totally gonna go viral.

And will be just the thing
to land you in prison
for a very long time.

I hate you
spider people so much!

Excellent work.
Now, grab your piece
of the activation key.

I'm almost to the container.

It should be right up here.

[grunts]

Got it. But--

[groans]
No go! It's empty!

[frustrated grunt]
Again, Toomes is ahead of us!

Spider-Man and Harry Osborn
are now our final hope
of stopping him,

and I cannot
even contact them.

[Anna Maria]
Eureka!
A breakthrough?

Look.
Toomes put an intrusion worm
into one of the bots.

It spread to the others,
rewriting their code

so they're incapable
of seeing anything
in a Goblin mask.

Like reverse
facial recognition.

Then if we target
the worm's code

while performing
a system purge...
[static]

Huzzah!
We did it!

Yes. Well...
[clears throat]
congratulations.

No sign of them on Dock 39.

We have to get out there
and fight.

We need to get
your sight back first,
or you're useless.

I think I can fix it.
It's good to have you back,
Harry.

You sure? Looks like
you already found someone
to take my place.

No one's taking
anybody's place.

And we could've been
working together all year

if you hadn't lied
about being in Europe.

I'm not the only one
who kept secrets here, remember?

You had plenty of chances
last year to tell me
you were Spider-Man.

I hid my identity to protect
the people around me,
including you.

And I didn't tell you
what I was doing

because I knew you wouldn't
approve of me building
the Goblin Mech, Pete.

I figured once I built it
and showed you

how it could be used safely,
you'd understand.

Well, that hypothesis
didn't exactly pan out, did it?

No. And neither will
being best friends with
a super-villain like Doc Ock!

Ow!

[weapons firing]
[Goblins crying out]

So, either the spider-bots
can see Goblins now,

or they made
some pretty lucky guesses.

[yells]
Not a Goblin!

Not a Goblin!
[yells]
Wait, wait!

It's doing repairs!

[Doc Ock]
...read me now, Spider-Man?

[sighs]
Ock! Oh, man,

you have no idea how happy
I am to hear your voice.
[scoffs]

Thank you, but I do not
bring good news.

The spider-bots
just searched.

The piece of the key
you were seeking is gone.

Those Goblin gangs
were just there to keep us busy.

[beeping]
Toomes now has all three pieces
of the activation key.

And I am tracking him headed
toward the Oscorp building
at this moment.

He's going to activate
the Goblin Mech!
Come on!

We're shutting
all of you down.

Like the two of you
could-- [yells]

[grunts]

Hey, guys.

Ock said you
might need some help.

Oh, they do need help.
And so do you!

Crossbones, this is my mission!

I didn't call
for backup.

But you keep needing it.

How many times am I
gonna have to bail you out

before your crew realizes
they need a better leader?

That's it!
Loyalty has its limits.

Electro Goblins,
take them out!

[grunts]

Whoa! The Goblin gangs
are going after
each other now?

This makes things
a whole lot easier.

If your definition of "easier"
is them burning down the city
while they fight.

We have to stop this.

[Spider-Man]
Ock, we're on him.
You were right.

Toomes is headed straight
for the Oscorp building.

[Doc Ock]
Grab Osborn, bank left!

[both grunting]

Whoa. That was a close one.
Thanks, Ock.

Oh, is Ock still whispering
in your ear?

I saw that rocket coming.
I can take care of myself.

[sighs]

Come on, Harry.
Give it time.

Ock will prove himself
to you.

Sometimes you have to let go of
past mistakes and move forward.

[grunts]
[grunts]

The Goblin gangs
are tearing the neighborhood up.
We have to stop this fight.

Miles, the people
trapped in this building
don't have time for that.

We gotta save them now.
[Anna Maria]
You can do both.

Ock?
You sound different.

Not Ock. The person that's
going to help you save lives.

I'm seeing the big picture
from here.

I'll help you prioritize.
Listen up.

Okay.
Yes, ma'am.
You got it.

Spider-Girl,
get to the third floor,
second window from the right.

There's a mother and daughter
who need help.
I'm on it, mystery lady.

Ghost-Spider,
glide to the roof.

People are running up there
and they need a way down.

[Ghost-Spider]
Whoever you are,
I think I like you.

Miles, get down to the street.

Start thwipping who I tell you.
Time to divide and conquer.

[Miles]
Thwipping I can do.
On it.

Spider-Man,
I know Toomes well.

Something about this situation
does not seem to add up.

What do you mean?
He is publicly leading you
toward his goal.

Why not travel underground
or some other way that would
be harder for you to track?

Good point, but--
Harry, heads-up!

Toomes, you're not gonna
stop me with pumpkin bombs.

I literally invented
pumpkin bombs!

[laughing]

Huh?

[grunts]
Where'd he go?

[trilling]

Oh, no!

He's probably
already inside.
How?

My dad was always
putting secret entries
into his buildings.

Toomes used to work here.
He probably knows
a hidden way in.

[Doc Ock]
I advise caution.
What if the villain

is just trying
to manipulate you?

Harry, Ock says we should
think this through before--

Don't listen to Ock!
Listen to me!

Toomes could already
have gotten his hands
on that mech!

This is my crew, Crossbones!

You can't replace me!

[grunting]
[grunts]

Please! A sparkplug
could replace you, kid.

That's why I had
some eggheads build
this little present for you.

[yells]

[groaning]

[body thuds]
[chuckling]

Though you'd like that one.
Congrats!

[yells]
[grunts]
You're the winner.

Nice try,
but it would take a master spy
to get a jump on Crossbones.

[yells, groans]

Then I'm a master spy.
Booyah!

Guess that makes you "Spy-D."

Ha! I see
what you did there.

Everyone's out of the building,
and thanks to a call
from the mystery lady,

the fire department's
pumping water in.

I think we're done here.
Nice work, Ghost-Spider
and Spy-D.

Now, wait, wait, wait.
Hold up.

Are we really
calling me that now?

Harry, wait. Toomes could--
Already have his hands
on the mech.

We have to be sure.

We beat him here?

Look out!
[ascending whirring]

[both yell]

[both grunting]

[Toomes]
Harry Osborn.

Exactly as impetuous
as I predicted.

I knew you'd keep
the ultimate weapon

in the building
bearing your father's name.

But it's a large tower,
so it was simply a matter

of getting you
to lead me right to it.

[grunts]
Keep your hands
off that mech, or--

Or you'll what?
That foam is designed

to keep even
your spider-strength
from breaking through.

Now, finally,

my genius will get
the recognition it deserves.

Your genius?
My dad's genius, you mean.

He's the one
who designed that mech.
You're just stealing his work!

Ha! Don't be a fool!

Norman Osborn's only genius
was for ripping off
the ideas of others.

He stole clone-tech
from the Jackal.

He robbed
the original Goblin tech
from his own son.

And he stole
this mech's design.
From you!

Yes. And now it's time

to revel in the power
given to me
by my own rightful creation.

[beeps]

[whirring]

Because now I have
the ability to destroy
anyone that stands in my way!

Even you, Spider-Man!

[both grunting]
