As they flee, Kingpin’s goons pursue, but Spider-Man intervenes, battling brainwashed thugs at their home. Elsewhere, Harry Osborn and Mary Jane find her dance club shuttered, while Norman Osborn’s Green Goblin memories resurface. At Osborn Industries, Kingpin hides, ordering the Stacys’ and Peter’s deaths. Spider-Man, armed with a gas mask, and Norman thwart Kingpin’s plan to kill the Stacys in a boiling chemical vat.
