Ok so last time on Spider-Man we saw Aunt May get diagnosed with cancer and to pay for her treatment I got a job as a photographer for the Daily Bugle. We also saw that Otto Octavius is being controlled by Norman Osborn which I'm sure cannot be good. Now on Spider-Man we see Peter swinging around New York getting pictures for Jameson. Just then Peter gets a call from Harry to meet up. Once Peter gets to the coffee shop Harry tells Peter he's worried about him since he hasn't been coming to school and is tired whenever they talk. Peter says it's nothing and asks where Gwen is. Harry tells Peter that they had an argument, and they might break up. He tells Peter that Gwen thinks he's too reliant on his money and needs to start doing things for himself. Peter says that sounds like a good idea and Harry says he got angry in the moment and now she doesn't want to talk to him. Peter asks if they found his dad and Harry says he'll probably be back before Christmas. Peter gets a call from Otto and leaves to go meet up with him while Harry goes back home and cries for a bit. Peter gets to Otto's new lab that he was given by the government but when he goes in all the lights are off and Otto isn't there. Peter tries to leave but the lab had commenced total lockdown and now Peter is trapped.
