The episode opens in a dark warehouse as Tombstone and Adrian Toomes sit down at a table where they meet with Gustav Fiers and Dmitri Smerdyakov who tell them phase 2 in Fisk's plan isn't going so well and now they are ready to launch their own plan. Dmitri tells them that he knows a lot about exactly what Fisk was planning. He tells them that Fisk hired his cousin Sergei to kill Spider-Man that way he doesn't get in the way of their plan to build a collider. Gustav asks what the collider is for and Dmitri tells them he doesn't know and that Norman won't tell anyone. We cut to Peter and Sergei as they fight while Norman and Fisk escape again. Fisk tells Norman he is done and that all of this is calling too much attention to his operation. Norman tells Fisk that he shouldn't have said that. Fisk backs up but Norman pulls out a gun and shoots Fisk in the face. Peter tries to beat Sergei but notices his veins starting to blacken. Peter swings away but Sergei goes after him. Peter gets to the Bugle where he finds George. The two try to leave but Sergei gets there and attacks Peter through the building. Jameson and Robbie Robertson start trying to evacuate people but Eddie Brock goes to hit Sergei with a led pipe. Sergei turns around and throws Eddie through the wall. Peter suddenly feels a sharp pain and falls on the floor. Sergei tells him he is dying from the poison Fisk and Norman gave him. Peter looks at Sergei standing over him as his eyes slowly close.
