Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man

- -

- Hey, Peter... -

...you were supposed to be up 15 minutes ago.

- -

Sorry, May. I'm up.

- Get a move on or you'll be late. -

Oh, crap! I'm late! I'm late!

Ugh!

Peter! Peter, wait!

Your oatmeal was getting cold so I packed it to go.

Thank you, May, you're the best!

-The best. -Oh.

- Seriously? - Excuse me! Oops!

-Hey! Watch it! -Sorry! Pardon me!

-Whoa! -Oh! Pardon me! Didn't mean to do that!

Stand clear of the doors.

Hey, stop!

I'm almost there! Don't... go yet.

And they went.

'Course.

Why would anything work out for you, Peter?

-Ugh. -

Hey, Peter, you need a ride?

May? What are you doing, you're gonna be late for work.

It's your first day.

If one of us is gonna be late, I'd rather it's me.

So, high school orientation.

-How excited are you? -Honestly?

I'm still waiting for them to tell me

they sent the approval letter to the wrong Peter Parker.

But, I've wanted to go to Midtown for years,

their robotics program is supposed to be one of the best in the country.

Ah. And here I thought you were excited about learning.

Turns out, you just want to play with robots all day.

Well, to answer your question, I'm excited.

And it'll be nice,

you know, to have something to distract from everything else that's been goin' on.

May, I...

I just wanna say thank you.

Things have been... different without having Uncle Ben around,

but you've always been here for me.

You have always had my back,

and I really appreciate that, more than I can say. I...

I feel very lucky to have you in my life.

I feel exactly the same about you, kid.

-Oh. -

Okay, let me help you with that.

Oh. So, that's how it works.

See, that's why you're going to the fancy Robot School.

-Thanks again for the ride, May. -Of course, Peter.

Okay. All right, Peter,

this is the first day of the rest of your life.

No need to be nervous, it's just orientation...

at a high school for... geniuses.

- -

How bad could this possibly go?

- -

- - Huh?

What the hell?

- -

-Peter, let's go! -

- -

Where do you think you're going?

Oh, my gosh, it's...

some kinda magical wizard guy?

Oh, no. We're not supposed to be here.

- -

- Oh, my God! No! - No! This isn't fair!

Good luck getting through the impenetrable Shield of Seraphim.

Okay, never using this spell again.

Grab that kid.

-You okay, kid? - Mm-hmm.

Do a sweep, make sure that's everyone.

You gotta be kidding me.

Not so fast.

No!

Ouch.

- - Look out.

- Run! -Come on, let's go!

- -

- -

- -

-Peter! -

- - Hey, ugly!

I don't think she's interested, buddy!

- -

I was gonna say, "Pick on someone your own size",

but you're actually a lot bigger up close.

- -

Good save, kid.

Are you okay?

- -

Oh, uh... Thanks. Yeah.

I... I've been better, but I definitely could've been worse.

Midtown on the other hand...

Yeah, I was here for orientation.

Freshman, huh? Same.

But I have a feeling we won't be getting assigned classes anytime soon.

Yeah, I think you're right.

So, you got a name, hero?

Oh, yeah. Uh, sorry. I'm Peter Parker. How about you?

Nice to meet you, Pete. I'm Nico Minoru.

- -Okay, rude. I didn't name myself.

No, I...

Something bit...

What?

-Whoa! Oh, my gosh! Hey. - Whoa! What's up with him?

- Peter? -Pete? Pete, are you okay, man?

What happened to him?

I... I don't know. He didn't like my name?

Hey, Peter?

- - Peter, talk to me.

Peter! You were supposed to be up 20 minutes ago!

-You're gonna be late! - Sorry, May! I'm up.

I'm up!

- Where you goin'? - Right behind ya!

-And pardon me! - Yo!

-Excuse me! I'm gonna make it on time! - Hey!

-Nice job, Peter... - Watch where you're goin'!

- Hey, watch it! -I'm okay.

- Welcome to New York, kid. -Sorry about your cab.

Stand clear of the doors.

Hey! Stop! Don't go yet! Stop! Wait! Wait! Wait! Wait! Wait! Wait! Aw.

And, of course.

All right, well, plan B.

I was hopin' to avoid getting too sweaty before school,

but it's better than bein' late.

Okay, here we go.

Whoo!

Whoo-hoo-hoo!

No! I'm good. I'm all right, I'm all right.

Whoa!

Hey, Mom!

Okay, we're making pretty good time.

I might actually be a little early for once.

- Help! - Or not.

Somebody help me!

It's no use calling for help.
