EXT. MIDTOWN HIGH - ESTABLISHING SHOT - DAY
BETTY (V.O.)
We're covering the first day of senior year from Midtown High's most famous student...
Just outside the front doors, it's CHAOS. FANS, PROTESTERS, REPORTERS, etc. Including BETTY BRANT, in school reporter mode.
BETTY
Peter Parker! Go get 'em, tiger. Or should I say, "Spider?"
Peter, MJ, and Ned walk down the corridor of chaos.
The audience grimaced, the few who've had to deal with the press normally just disappear but he really can't.
NEWS REPORTER (V.O.) The crowd has continued to grow here all morning long at the Midtown School of Science and Technology--
Peter and MJ hold hands in support of one another.
ANOTHER NEWS REPORTER (V.O.) The crowd seems evenly divided between supporters of Spider-Man and protestors.
CROWD MEMBER #1 MJ! MJ! MJ! We love you!
A MAN with MJ's face printed on his shirt yells for her attention.
CROWD MEMBER #1 (CONT'D) MJ, are you going to have his spider babies?!
"OH MY GOD!! THOSE STUPID MOTHERFLUFFERS!!" Clint shouted, He has kids of his own and seeing that, just grossed him out. These kids are young they shouldn't be asked by STRANGERS if they were going to have babies. Practically everyone shared this remark, Loki and Thor shook there heads in disappointment and Disgust. Nat and Yelena were practically shaking with anger and Tony just coldly glared at the 'stupid MotherFluffer'.
Peter grimaced, hating how things were for his friends. Ned took MJ's hand, even though they don't remember it, they can still feel something inside them that related to their faces on the screen.
The crowd is growing closer and closer to Peter and MJ. They keep their heads down as SECURITY guides them through.
SECURITY GUARD Back up! Back up!
CROWD MEMBER #2
You know he's a murderer, right?!
CROWD MEMBER #3
Hey Peter, come here, do a TikTok with me!
CROWD MEMBER #4
Hey! Let's see you and MJ kiss!
NED (to crowd) Back off! Who are you?
Ned felt proud of his past actions.
CROWD MEMBER #5
NED
I'm Ned Leeds, I'm Spider-Man's best friend--
FLASH (stepping in) --I'm Peter Parker's best friend. You come at my boy, you come at Flash Thompson. And if you want to read about our inspiring friendship, you can now in my new book--
"Flash?" Ned and MJ exclaimed, surprised to see the weird, mean and Spiderman obsessed kid claiming to be the hero's friend.
"Was he really your friend?"
"No, he just had a obsession with it for some reason" Peter said with a shrug.
Flash holds up a BOOK with his portrait on the cover.
FLASH (CONT'D)
--Flashpoint: One Spider, Two Hearts, a Million Crazy-Ass Memories. Check it out!
(Flashpoint! a time line certain scarlet speedster created-I had to I'm sorry...)
Ned walks off annoyed.
Peter and MJ are stopped at the bottom of the school steps. Security scans Peter with a metal detector and separates him from MJ.
PETER
No, I got to wait up--
FRONT DOOR GUARD
Go!
PETER I'll see you inside, okay?
MJ nods, as she too is scanned with the metal detector.
INT. MIDTOWN HIGH - ENTRYWAY/HALLWAY - MOMENTS LATER (DAY)
STUDENTS watch Betty's news coverage on the TVs.
BETTY (ON TV)
Keep watching Midtown News all year as we bring you up close and personal coverage of Peter fighting his biggest battle yet: college admissions.
Peter walks up the stairwell to find MR. DELL, MR. HARRINGTON, and COACH WILSON waiting for him. It's weird.
MR. DELL (big smile) Peter, we would love to welcome you back to Midtown High, where we shape heroes!
Mr. Harrington gestures to a nearby trophy case -- it's been turned into a SHRINE TO PETER. Above it is a homemade sign that reads: "MIDTOWN HIGH -- WHERE WE SHAPE HEROES."
"Yeah- that would be weird" Tony said. Peter nodded remembering how awkward he felt.
COACH WILSON Or murderers...
Tony frowned, teacher were supposed remain neutral, right? or at least not openly hostile.
MR. HARRINGTON Stop it.(to Peter) It's an honor to serve you, sir. Mr. Harrington salutes Peter. Is that a tear?
COACH WILSON
It's not. Mysterio was right.
"Conspiracy Theorist!!!" Bucky shouted. Drawing raised eyebrows and murmured agreements
MR. HARRINGTON Stop. We don't--
COACH WILSON Mysterio was right.
MR. HARRINGTON That's all--(to Peter)Some of the students put this together for you.
Mr. Harrington and Mr. Dell redirect attention to the trophy case.
COACH WILSON (to Mr. Harrington) No. You did that! You did that.
MR. HARRINGTON I... I helped a little bit.
"well.." Sam starts.
"that's nice?" Steve finishes. Some nod, others star blankly at the screen unsure what they are looking at.
PETER (politely) Oh wow.
COACH WILSON
And I tried to stop you so many times, but you powered through. He did all of that.
MR. DELL
And he did a great job.
MR. HARRINGTON (to Peter) I hope you have time to stop and check it out, in closeup.
MR. DELL
And feel free to walk -- or swing -- through the hallway, or crawl on the ceiling to avoid everybody.
MR. HARRINGTON We all know you can do it.
PETER I'm just gonna...
As Peter heads off--
COACH WILSON I know what you did.
MR. HARRINGTON Stop it. You're embarrassing yourself.
COACH WILSON (to Peter) I know what you did.
MR. HARRINGTON (to Peter, re: CoachWilson) He's a conspiracy theorist.
"That much is obvious, Captain" Tony said quietly, still frowning at Coach Wilson -yes Tony had looked up all Peter's teacher and staff, no he was not his dad.
Peter, weirded out, walks down the long hallway of students, all crowding and reaching to get his picture. It's incredibly awkward.
Peter sighed there were times he wished he could go back in time- to see aunt May or be with his friend and girlfriend- but there were times like this that he remembered why this was good for everyone.
