Spider-Man 2 Page #3

Synopsis: Peter Parker is an unhappy man: after two years of fighting crime as Spider-Man, his life has begun to fall apart. The girl he loves is engaged to someone else, his grades are slipping, he cannot keep any of his jobs, and on top of it, the newspaper Daily Bugle is attacking him viciously, claiming that Spider-Man is a criminal. He reaches the breaking point and gives up the crime fighter's life, once and for all. But after a failed fusion experiment, eccentric and obsessive scientist Dr. Otto Octavius is transformed into super villain Doctor Octopus, Doc Ock for short, having four long tentacles as extra hands. Peter guesses it might just be time for Spider-Man to return, but would he act upon it?

- Thanks, Mr. Ditkovitch.

- Hi, Pete.

Hello?

Rent?

Doctor? Mr. Osborn's here.

Nobel Prize, Otto. Nobel Prize.

And we'll all be rich.

It's not about the prizes, Harry.

But you need money.

You need Oscorp.

Who do we have here?

This is my good friend

I called you about.

He got me through

high-school science.

Peter Parker, sir.

I'm writing a paper on you for...

I know what you're doing here...

...but I don't have time

to talk to students now.

But Oscorp pays the bills, so...

That's why I have to take off.

Board meeting.

But my job is done here.

Got you two geniuses together.

Good luck tomorrow, Otto.

Nobel Prize. We'll see you in Sweden!

Interesting fellow, your friend.

I won't take much of your time.

Now I remember you. You're Connors'

student. He tells me you're brilliant.

He also tells me you're lazy.

I'm trying to do better.

Being brilliant's not enough,

young man. You have to work hard.

Intelligence is not a privilege,

it's a gift.

And you use it

for the good of mankind.

Otto, your lunch is ready.

- This is my wife, Rosie.

- Hello.

This is Peter Parker. Connors' student.

The one who falls asleep in class.

I always fell asleep in physics class.

- Nice to meet you, Peter.

- Good to meet you.

Excuse me.

Is that it?

Yes. My design to initiate

and sustain fusion.

I understand you use harmonics

of atomic frequencies.

Sympathetic frequencies.

Harmonic reinforcement?

Go on.

An exponential increase

in energy output.

A huge amount of energy.

Like a perpetual sun providing

renewable power for the whole world.

It's all so amazing. If it works,

it could change the way we live.

It is amazing, and it will work.

Are you sure you could stabilise

the fusion reaction?

Peter, what have we been talking

about for the last hour and a half?

This is my life's work.

I certainly know the consequences

of the slightest miscalculation.

I'm sorry. I didn't mean

to question you.

Rosie, our new friend thinks

I'm gonna blow up the city.

You can sleep soundly tonight.

Otto's done his homework.

Come to the demonstration tomorrow,

and you'll see for yourself.

And you need

to sleep soundly tonight, Otto.

Did Edison sleep

before he turned on the light?

Did Marconi sleep

before he turned on the radio?

Did Beethoven sleep

before he wrote the 5th?

Did Bernoulli sleep before he found

the curves of quickest descent?

Rosie, I love this boy.

Peter, tell us about yourself.

Do you have a girlfriend?

Well...

I don't really know.

Well, shouldn't you know?

I mean, who would know?

Leave him alone.

Maybe it's a secret love.

Love should never be a secret.

If you keep something as complicated
