"Do not patronize me, Calypso." "It was, as always, all too easy." "Then perhaps this will brighten your mood." "Another package from our anonymous friend in America." "Hm." "His new beast is intriguing." "No other creature has this combination of speed, agility and strength." "[WHINNIES]" "I am convinced." "It is a prey worthy of my prowess."

"Flash look about done in there?" "We got practice." "Cool it, King Kong." "Bio's not exactly QB's top subject." "Yeah, does he have a top subject?" "Football." "Football." "PETER:" "Wow, and with no spider-sense." "Come on, Pete, just-- Just tell her how you feel." "Uh, Gwen, I've been wanting to say" "Hey, Rand, look." "Nerd love." "[BOTH LAUGH]" "Eh, I'm-- Interning at ESU again." "I heard." "I'm" " I'm so happy for you." "I thought we could head over together." "And maybe score a little cross-town bus privacy for a real talk." "Thank you, thank you, thank you." "I aced that final." "I can feel it." "And it's all because I had the world's best tutor," "Petey." "[♪♪♪]" "Well, I'm just glad I could help." "Hey." "You didn't wait for me." "I wasn't sure your grateful pupil would detach herself in time for you to catch the bus." "CURT:" "There he is." "Welcome back, Pete." "Thanks." "And thanks for the second chance." "I promise I won't need a third." "We hope not, Peter." "Pete, this is Deborah Whitman." "She's the new Eddie." "Hey, Deb." "It's nice to be working...with you." "I think she prefers "Deborah."" "Speaking of Eddie," "I know you two are friends." "Have you heard from him?" "Yeah, I'm worried." "He was right behind me at the Thanksgiving Parade when that monster" "Anyway, I haven't seen him since." "Do you" " Do you think--?" "Sorry." "I don't know where he is." "Believe me, I wish I did." "WARREN:" "Curt, this research of yours is stunning." "Kids, this is our new senior fellow," "Dr. Miles Warren." "Miles, this-- Yes, Gwen Stacy, Peter Parker." "My brother, your biology professor, speaks highly of you both." "Now, Curt, about your theories on lizard DNA's mutagenic application to the human genome, they mesh perfectly with my own work running computer simulations on mammalian DNA." "You're missing a step, of course." "The formula must be electrolyzed to increase potency, but if we combine our efforts we could have a working, programmable mutagen" "That line of research was a dead end, Miles." "Something of an embarrassment, really." "Please, just drop it." "[♪♪♪]" "If you insist." "SPIDER-MAN:" "I think" " I think Liz Allan really is into me." "Gwen too." "Gwen, Liz." "Liz, Gwen." "Web-slinging 30 floors up never made me this dizzy." "KRAVINOFF:" "There you are." "Such agility, such grace." "Truly, prey worthy of Sergei Kravinoff." "[♪♪♪]" "Where did you come from?" "Mother Russia, by way of Mother Africa." "Two moms and still so ill-behaved?" "[♪♪♪]" "Look, what's the game here?" "Ha-ha-ha-ha!" "Big game." "Now, be still." "The noblest prey ends the hunt in silent dignity." "Prey?" "Silent?" "Dignity?" "You don't know me at all." "[♪♪♪]" "[GASPS] KRAVINOFF:" "Hah!" "You cannot shake Sergei Kravinoff so easily." "Hey, Spidey never does anything easy." "Oh, man, now you've got me talking in the third person." "Just for that..." "[GRUNTS]" "Amazing." "No beast has ever broken the grip of Kravinoff." "Oh, okay, I think I see the confusion." "Not a beast, a spider man, get it?" "[♪♪♪]" "Always Kravinoff tempers his skills to give his quarry a chance." "At last, Kravinoff can be Kravinoff and thrill to a true challenge." "Missed." "And missed again." "[GRUNTS]" "[GRUNTS]" "Okay, point for you." "But proportionate strength of a spider here." "I'll snap this thing and-- Don't bother." "This blow dart is tipped with a paralyzing poison." "It will all be over soon." "[♪♪♪]" "[BLOWS]" "What is this?" "Just a little sample of my spectacular spider powers, chief." "Here's another." "Okay, the thermals with the hearts were half-price and do not reflect my very high macho quotient." "[GRUNTS]" "[BOTH GRUNTING]" "[♪♪♪]" "You just don't get it." "[GRUNTS]" "You're good." "Maybe at hunting, you're even the best, but when it comes to the New York super-powered scene, you're out of your league." "A net." "[GRUNTING]" "No." "This cannot be happening to Sergei Kravinoff." "Oh, Kravin off." "[CROWD LAUGHING] MAN:" "Look at that guy." "[♪♪♪]" "You have need of me, love?" "[CAR APPROACHES]" "I did not call you." "And yet I am here." "No, Calypso."

"[GULYADKIN GROWLS]" "[ROARS]" "[♪♪♪]" "He has been here." "What is this place?" "My laboratory." "What a magnificent specimen." "Uh, yours, I presume?" "Gulyadkin is no man's property." "These spiders, they do not exist in the natural world." "Genetically altered to combine traits from multiple species." "You can do that?" "I can." "Then you created the Spider-Man." "Yes, I gave Spider-Man his powers." "Powers, yes." "That is how he beat me." "The only reason he beat me." "Give me powers." "Spider-Man paid handsomely for his." "[SNAPS FINGERS]" "Why should I pay for what I can take?" "Hm." "You'll have no idea what I'm doing to you." "Would you really trust me if it weren't in my self-interest to succeed?"

"The rest comes when I get what I need." "And if I don't," "Gulyadkin makes the final payment." "[GROWLS]" "There's no need for melodrama." "[SNAPS]" "The mutagen was compounded to your specifications." "One more jolt-- [SIZZLING]" "[GROWLS]" "and you're a new man." "I feel nothing." "Days of treatments and still nothing." "You dare try to fool Kravinoff?" "Admit it." "You are in league with Spider-Man." "His scent is all over this lab." "You can smell him?" "[♪♪♪]" "[SCREAMS]" "[GROWLS]" "I believe I'm owed an apology, Kravinoff." "Call me Kraven." "Kraven the Hunter." "[GROWLS]" "[♪♪♪]" "SPIDER-MAN:" "It's not like I want bad things to happen to Flash." "Well, not super bad things." "At least not super bad things that make Liz forget I exist." "[♪♪♪]" "And why stress over Liz anyway?" "I'm into Gwen." "Right?" "[GROWLS]" "Hey, I know that getup." "Kravinoff, is that you?" "[GROWLS]" "You can call me Kraven now." "I could call you a lot of things." "What happened to you?" "Same as happened to you." "Except Kraven pay for higher class of DNA." "You paid to do that to yourself?" "Of course." "Now Kraven climb and leap like leopard, run fast as cheetah, and possess strength of lion." "[GRUNTS]" "[ELEPHANT TRUMPETS]" "[BOTH GRUNTING]" "Don't get any ideas." "Before, your powers gave advantage, but Kraven has leveled the field, and you will fall like any prey." "Hate to break it to you, tabby, but you're not my first genetic experiment gone wrong." "Just the first that smells like a litter box." "All I smell is fear." "[ROARS]" "[CELL PHONE RINGING]" "Perfect." "SPIDER-MAN:" "Hang on." "Gotta take this." "Liz?" "LIZ [ON PHONE]:" "Oh, Petey, thank goodness." "Flash is in surgery, and I'm freaking out." "Can you come to Manhattan General?" "[ROARS]" "Uh, I'm in the middle of something." "Please, Petey."
