(Spider-Man leapt back out of the shuttle and jumped on Rhino's back and webbed his face)

Spider-Man: "Yee haw! Giddy up!"

(Spider-Man led Rhino towards the side of the bridge and kicked off of him and landed on the ground)

Spider-Man: "Say goodnight, Gracie!"

(Rhino roared and slammed through the side of the bridge, he fell onto a buoy with a shiny coin floating on it)

Rhino: "Ooh!"

(Black Cat dodged Doc Ock's tentacles)

Doc Ock: "I don't have time to bother with you! You interfere with me and my business with that murderous pest!"

Spider-Man: "Now, now Ock! Don't go spreading lies about me! Who told you I was murderous?"

Black Cat: "Um..you totally tossed Shocker's goons off that skyscraper, spider."

Spider-Man: "...oh boy."

Doc Ock: "Silence! You killed my Rosie! My wife!"

Spider-Man: "What? I didn't know you had a..!"

(More flashes went through his mind of meeting Doc Ock without the tentacles on his back, wearing a lab coat, without sunglasses and a woman, they'd had dinner together once)

(Doc Ock yelled and swiped a tentacle at Spider-Man but Black Cat tackled him out of the way)

(Spider-Man snapped back to reality and noticed Cat on top of him)

Spider-Man: "Looks like we're going steady now."

(Cat grinned and helped him up)

Doc Ock: "Enough of this! We shall settle our feud, Arachnid. Tomorrow. Meet me at the Enric Towers. 3:00 tomorrow afternoon. Don't be late."

Spider-Man: "It's a date! Wait, aren't I usually late?"

(More memories flash of him telling several people he's sorry he's late)

Black Cat: "And why should he meet with you?"

Doc Ock: "...a good point. A motivation is required. You'll do."

(Reaches with a tentacle to grab her but she kicks it aside)

Black Cat: "Nope."

(Doc Ock grunted in frustration and climbed away)

Black Cat: "You okay, spider?"

Spider-Man: "Yeah. He just caught me off guard. I'll be ready for him next time."

Black Cat: "...still repeating things I've said to you before huh?"

Spider-Man: "What's up with that?"

(She giggled)

Black Cat: "So what'd you see in the space ship?"

Spider-Man: "Nothin. It was empty. Maybe they had a parachute or something?"

(Sirens approached the area)

Black Cat: "We better get going!"

Spider-Man: "After you!"

(They swung away together, the black goo still attached to Spider-Man's leg)
