Rite of Passage: The Amazing Spider-Man Reborn

---

Five, four, three, two, one.

Ready or not, here I come.

Dad?

Dad?!

You're gonna stay with aunt May

and uncle Ben for little while.

I want to go with you.

Doesn't like crust on his sandwiches.

And he likes to sleep with

a little light on at night.

Come on.

Dad...

Be good.

- Sorry.

- Morning Flash.

Good morning Parker.

Hey, it's Peter, right?

- I really like your photos.

- Oh, thanks.

Hey listen, are you busy Friday night?

Cool, can you take pictures

of my boyfriend's car?

I just, really wanted to put

him a good one for his birthday.

That's really nice of you,

that's such a nice thought.

- I'm gonna get the old, old schedule.

- OK.

- Parker!

- Yes sir?

You want to keep that skateboard?

- Yeah.

- Keep it off the ground, wheels up!

- Like that?

- That's it!

OK!

Eat your vegetables Gordon, come on!

Hey Parker, come on,

get a picture of this!

Put him down man.

Don't eat it, don't eat that.

- Take a picture, Parker.

- Put him down Flash.

- Take a picture.

- Put him down, Eugene!

Come on! Get up Parker!

Get up! Come on!

- I'm still not taking the picture.

- Stay down Parker!

- Who wants one more?!

- Flash!

Flash, are we still on

for after school today?

My house, 3:
30? I hope

you've been doing your homework

last time I was very disappointed in you.

Flash, how about we go

to class? How about it?

Whatever.

I thought that was great,

what you did out there.

It was stupid, but it was great.

You should probably go to the

nurse, you might have a concussion.

- What's your name?

- You don't know my name?

I know your name.

I just want to know

if you know your name.

Peter.

- Parker, Peter Parker.

- OK.

- I'd still go to the nurse, though.

- You're Gwen, right?

Gwen Stacy.

I'm making spaghetti

and meat balls tonight.

You're serious? Spaghetti...

Since when don't you like

spaghetti and meat balls, huh?

Oh my God, what happened to your face?

I'm alright, I fell, skating.

Ben Parker, don't you even think about

leaving that filthy box in my kitchen.

- These are my bowling trophies.

- Oh, then by all means,

please, leave that

filthy box in my kitchen.

- What happened to you?

- He fell.

Why you kids ride those

things I'll never know.

Because it's stupid and dangerous,

remember when we were

stupid and dangerous?

- No.

- Trust me, we were.

- Good to know. Hey, where's the flood?

- Follow me, I'll show you.

- You serious?

- Yes!

I think it's the condenser tray.

No, too much water for the condenser tray

or the heat exchange tubings,

this is gotta be the filling.

That's the only thing

that makes any sense.

- Can you fix it?

- No, not tonight.

- I'll go by the hardware store tomorrow.

- Good deal,

meanwhile put this on your face.

How's the other guy look?

Come on, I know a right

cross when I see one.

Yes or no, do I have to

call somebody's father?

No, no.

I wouldn't tell your aunt May.

Pity the poor kid who'd

have to suffer her wrath.

Hey, before you come up, see if

there's anything else worth saving.

Yeah.

- Excuse me?

- What?

Can I help you?

I don't know, I'm here

to see Dr. Connors.

You'll find yourself to the left.

You are here for the internship?

Yeah. Yeah.

OK, you'll find your badge to the left.

- Are you having trouble finding yourself?

- No, I got it.

OK, Mr. Gueverra.

- Gracias.

- De nada.

Welcome to Oscorp.

Born from the mind of our

founder, Norman Osborn,

the Oscorp Tower has its

Our scientific minds are

pushing the boundaries

of defense, biomedical and

chemical technologies.

The future lies within.

Welcome to Oscorp, my name is Gwen

Stacy, I'm a senior at Midtown Science,

and I'm also head intern to Dr. Connors,

so I'll be with you for

the duration of your visit.

Where I go, you go,

that's the basic rule.

If you remember that all will be fine,

and if you forget that then...

Tell them Rodrigo Gueverra is down here!

Please, just tell them

Rodrigo Gueverra is down here!

I guess I don't need to tell you

what happens if you forget that.

Shall we?

Come around this way.

- Good afternoon Gwen.

- Dr. Connors.

Welcome, my name is Dr. Curtis Connors.

And yes, in case you're

wondering, I'm a southpaw.

I'm not a cripple, I'm

a scientist and I'm the

world's foremost

authority on Herpetology,

that's reptiles for those

of you that don't know.

But like the Parkinson's patient who watches

on in horror as her body slowly betrays her,

or the man with Macular Degenerations,

whose eyes grow dimmer each day,

I long to fix myself, I want to

create a world without weakness.

Anyone cares to venture

a guess just how? Yes?

Stem cells?

Promising, but the solution

I'm thinking of is more, radical.

- No one?

- Cross-species genetics.

Person gets Parkinson's when the brain cells

that produce dopamine start to disappear.

But a zebra fish has the ability

to regenerate cells on command.

If you can somehow give this ability to the

woman you're talking about, that's that...

She's curing herself.

You just have to look

pass the gills on her neck.

And you are?

He's one of the Midtown Science's

best and brightest.

Really?

- He's second in his class.

- Oh.

- Second?

- Yeah.

- You sure about that?

- I'm pretty sure.

I'm afraid duty calls, I'll leave you

in more than capable hands of miss Stacy.

Nice meeting you all.

If you'd like to gather round.

Welcome to Oscorp's Tree of Life.
