Days ago... Weeks after the death of Ben Parker.

Mac Gargan was seen sitting down in court as his hands were laid on a table in cuffs while people from both sides witnessed the trial first hand.

Judge: The prisoner will stand.

Gargan stood up, looking at the judge with a smug look as all eyes stared right at him.

Judge: MacDonald "Mac" Gargan, District Attorney Walters has asked that the maximum sentence of life imprisonment be imposed upon you. Given your criminal record, the evidence against you has been deemed highly accurate. How do you plead?

Mac: (Stares at the judge hard) Not guilty, your honor.

Judge: Alright. (Turns to the jury) How does the jury plead?

Jury: Your honor, we find the defendant guilty as charged.

Judge: (Nodded) Mac Gargan; due to the number of crimes committed in your name, I hereby sentence you the maximum penalty for assault and battery, grand theft auto, and last but not least, murder on the first degree.

The judge swung his hammer down, and later, Gargan was sent to a truck that was en route to Ryker's Island. At least, that was what he had thought as he sat inside waiting to be put behind bars when the truck had suddenly come to a stop.

Mac: (Looks around, feeling the vehicle stopping) What's goin' on? Why did we stop?

Guard: Because we've arrived at our destination.

Mac: Already? Damn, have you pigs taken short cuts to Rykers?

Guard: Who said anything about Rykers?

Before he could ask, Gargan was suddenly stabbed in the neck by a taser, putting him into shock before falling down on the floor unconscious. As the doors opened, a private security detail was seen lifting him onto a stretcher.

Gargan then blinked his eyes, looking around at his surroundings. It was a dark room that Gargan was placed in... The lights were green and dim, black windows tinted from the inside as he laid on a table with the wounds that were inflicted upon him the first time Spider-Man appeared... The night he got hurt... The night everything changed as a doctor came inside, looking over the patient.

Stillwell: Hello, Mr. Gargan. I'm Doctor Farley Stillwell. I'm here to help you with your recovery. (Sits down, looking at Mac) Alright then... How are you today, MacDonald?

Mac: (Looks around, seeing the room he's inside of) Where am I? This ain't Rykers.

Stillwell: No, that is highly fortunate for both of us. It would've been hard treating you over there than it would be treating you here, believe me.

Mac: (Turns around, looking at Stillwell) What do you want from me?

Stillwell: Oh, please... There's no need to be hostile, not in here... I'm here to help you.
