two hours since Peter met Alastor, Husker and Niffty

We see Cletus walking along the city streets sweating and breathing heavily, he is currently containing the symbiote from transforming into the monster that had killed and ate all the operatives who tried to kill it and Cletus

Symbiote: Now, now, we must go to Oscorp now!

Cletus: W-w-we can't! N-n-not yet!

Symbiote: If not now, then when?! Do not try to chicken your way out of this one, doctor, it is far too late for that... now release me and use me to get to Oscorp!

Cletus spots a yellow taxi cab and calls for it, the taxi cab stops and lets Cletus in, a dark skinned angelic driver looks at Cletus as he closes the door

Cletus: I live in eighty nine Helluva Drive in the rich area, house number forty five, I'm in a hurry

Driver: Okay, you want me to take the tunnel or the bridge?

Cletus clenches his body in immense pain as he does his best to hold the symbiote back

Cletus: B-BRIDGE- bridge, take the bridge!

Driver: Okay, I'll do that

Cletus: GRAAAHHH!!!

Driver: Hey man, you alright back there? 

Cletus: Grruuhhh!!

Driver: You tweaking back there, man?

Cletus stares at the man in pain

Cletus (mixture of symbiotic and normal voice): Just. Drive!

The driver turns around and faces the windscreen

Driver: Okaayy...

The taxi cab drives off towards the bridge

We cut to Peter who is currently sitting down at the table with his dinner of Venison Jambalaya in front of him, he was sitting at the right side of the table next to Arackniss, police captain of the PCPD who was sitting at the end of the table and Millie who was sitting next to him at the right side. Angel was next to Millie and Husker, Husker was next to Alastor who was sitting at the other end of the table, Niffty was sitting at the left side next to Alastor and Vaggie and Vaggie was sitting next to Charlie who was next to Arackniss

While the rest was eating the Jambalaya, Peter was playing around with it, Peter never really liked Venison Jambalaya but had to eat it due to Uncle Ben's addiction to it, his addiction got so bad that Aunt May had to ban the dish entirely. The room was awkwardly quiet, Alastor spoke to break the silence

Alastor: So, Captain, how has your day been? 

Angel: Yeah, have you caught that Spider-Freak yet?

Arackniss: No, we didn't catch him but we will, he's an amateur who's assaulting civilians during day and night, he's clumsy, he leaves clues, but, he's still dangerous

Peter feels hurt at the very idea that Arackniss thinks that Spider-Man was no better than the criminals he webs up to walls

Peter: He's- he's assaulting people? I'm not sure, I mean, I saw a video with him and a car thief, and I-I think that most people would say that he was.. providing a public service

Arackniss: Most people would be wrong, if I wanted the car thief off the street, he'd already be off the street

Peter: So why wasn't he then?
