Suggested by underworld_stories
Previously on Spider-Man we saw the transformation of an 18 year old Mac Gargan into what will soon become the Scorpion. Now on Spider-Man the episode opens with Harry Osborn being taken out of the chemicals as Gustav Fiers tells Flint Marco to go meet with some people that Gustav is working with. Harry opens his eyes and asks if he is a superhero yet and Gustav tells him he is more than that. The two talk for a while as Harry explains he has thought about it and doesn't want to kill Spider-Man only make him pay for what he did. Gustav tells him that if he is willing to pull a gun on his enemy he best pull the trigger and if he doesn't he shouldn't pull the gun. Harry says he doesn't want to use a gun but Gustav tells him it was a metaphor. We cut to Sandman as he is talking with two men by the names of Dmitri Smerdyakov and Alex Bateman. The three of them head to a warehouse where they show Flint an entire room full of high-tech advanced weapons including the Prowler's gauntlets, Electro's suit, Rhino's helmet, and a new suit for Flint that wont get damaged when he changes. He asks who they all work for and Alex tells him they only know their employer as Big Man.
