Peter leaves the store and runs across the street with a bag of sandwiches in his hand. He passes under an elevated train track, holding up his palm at a cab that honks at him, and runs into an alley. He takes off his shoes and throws them aside. He seems to be in a hurry. From his backpack, Peter pulls out a blue and red Spider-Man suit. He knocks over a garbage can as he awkwardly takes off his pants. Peter yanks off his shirt and sweater, then steps into his suit, wearing only his boxers. Jumping, he pulls the full-body suit up over his legs. Peter fits his arms in the sleeves, then puts on the mask, which covers his entire head. The baggy suit hangs loosely over his slender frame. Peter webs his backpack against a dumpster, then hits the spider emblem on his chest. The material shrinks, fitting him snugly. Peter presses a button on his web-shooter, activating hologram displays, adjusts the lenses on his high tech mask, and jumps onto the roof of a building. He leaps across roofs with his sandwich bag in hand. Crouching down on a ledge, he looks down at the streets and sighs.

"Ah, finally". A bicycle chain is broken. The thief rides the stolen bike down a sidewalk, pushing passersby off the street. Peter swings after him, lands in front of him, and holds out one end of a strand of web. "Hey, could you hold this for a second? Thanks." When the thief looks down at his hand, Peter uses his momentary distraction to glue him to the web. Peter lets go and the thief is pulled into the air. The thief still dangling above him, Peter holds up the bike and searches for its owner. "Hey, is this anybody's bike? No?" A man comes out of a store. "Hey, buddy, is this your bike?"

"I have no change." The man says

"Does anyone have a pen? Do you have a pen?" Peter asks. On the handle of the bike, Peter has left a note saying: "IS THIS YOUR BIKE? IF NOT, DON'T STEAL IT! SPIDER-MAN." Peter swings by a train station high above ground level and strikes a pose.

"Whoo! Everybody good?" He asks. He then rides on top of a subway car, reading something on his phone. Peter is slowly standing up on the edge of a building, the flag of the United States billowing in the wind behind him, when a man calls out:

"Hey! You're that spider guy on YouTube, right?"

"Call me Spider-Man!" Peter shouts

"Okay, Spider-Man. Do a flip." Peter does a backflip on the roof. "Yeah!"

"Not bad." A man says. One moment, Peter is swinging down from rooftops and yelling, and another moment, he is patiently giving directions to an old woman. A thin strand of web suspended between a building and an old, rusty water tank, he practices his tightrope skills, too. A man tries to open a car door with a thin slab of metal. Peter sees this, jumps onto the roof of the car, then uses his web to bang the man's head on the car. The car starts to make loud beeping noises.

"Hey, buddy. Shouldn't steal cars. It's bad." Peter glues the man's hand to the car and jumps off.

"It's my car, dumbass!" The man says. An old woman, Marjorie, looks out from her window and starts to shout at Peter. All hell breaks loose.

"Hey! Shut that off!"

"I was just tryin' to-"

"Can you tell him it's my car?"

"I work at night! Come on, dude!"

"That's not your car! That's his car."

"How was I supposed to know? He was putting that thing in the window!" Peter asked

"Every day with these damn alarms!"

"Shut it off!" The neighbors continue to shout at Peter. An old, white-haired man wearing sunglasses (Stan Lee cameo) shouts at Peter, but then Marjorie notices him from the building across the street.
