Alright previously on Spider-Man we saw me investigate the Lizard case and find Otto bonded with his experiment but after a bit more searching, I got into a fight with the Lizard that ended with me 24 layers through the Daily Bugle. Now on Spider-Man we see Peter slowly waking up as the Lizard destroys more and more of the Bugle. Peter swings down to the ground as the Lizard grabs Jameson and tries to run away. Peter tries to catch up to him, but the Lizard is too fast. Just as the Lizard is about to get away, he's thrown back and we see Otto standing in front of the Lizard being held up by the robotic arms. Peter walks up to the Lizard as he transforms back into Curtis Conners and grabs him. After getting Curtis into the Raft Otto is thanked by George Stacy and Peter heads back to Uncle Ben's house. The episode ends with Otto going into an alley where he is confronted by Norman Osborn who asks him if people suspect they're working together.
