Peter starts seeing double and passes out. Hours later Peter wakes up on the floor as cops raid the building and Norman and Fisk escape out the back while Hammerhead is arrested. Sergei and Dmitri sneak over, take Peter, and escape. George comes in and sees them leave out the window so him and officer Quinten Beck run out the front door and shoot Sergei in the shoulder. Sergei drops Peter and him and Dmitri escape without him. George gets Peter and rushes him to the hospital as we cut to Norman and Fisk talking about the fact that Peter will die in three weeks thanks to the poison.
