[A car drives up to a destroyed village in Ixtenco, Mexico

Maria Hill and Nick Fury get out]

Maria Hill: Nick, this was a tragedy, but it's not why we're
here. What, are we fighting the weather now?
Nick Fury: Locals say the cyclone had a face.
Maria Hill: People say things when they're under stress.
Okay, that does not mean that this is the start to another big
world-
[A green cloud of smoke appears in front of them. Both pull
out their guns, looking towards a strangely dressed man.]
Quentin Beck: Who are you?
[The Earth Elemental, that appears to be made from rocks,
comes from the ground in the village.]
Quentin Beck: You don't want any part of this. [he steps
forward, green blasts shooting from his hands]
[Marvel intro plays to 'I Will Always Love You' by Whitney
Houston. A poorly edited video in tribute of the fallen
Avengers, Tony Stark/Iron Man, Natasha Romanoff/Black
Widow, and Vision plays. It shifts to show Midtown School's
news show with Betty Brant and Jason Ionello]
Betty Brant: Gone. But not forgotten.
Jason Ionello: Thanks to Kenneth Laymour and Ian Reymor
for their help with that touching video tribute.
Betty Brant: This year has been nothing short of-
Jason Ionello: [a beep blocks out what he said] Crazy. It's
like insane.
Betty Brant: Jason.
Jason Ionello: What?
Betty Brant: No swearing.
Jason Ionello: Yeah, it's like the last day of school, we're
good.
Betty Brant: Historic. Over five years ago, half of all life in the
universe, including our own Midtown High was wiped from
existence. But then eight months ago, a band of brave
heroes brought us back. They called it the Blip. Those of us
who blipped away came back the same age. But our
classmates that didn't blip grew five years older.
Jason Ionello: Yeah, like my little brother is now older than
me.
Betty Brant: (annoyed) Yeah, it's math. And even know we
had blipped away half way through the school year and had
already taken midterms, the school made us start the whole
year over from the beginning.
Jason Ionello: Totally unfair. It's not right.
Betty Brant: Tigers, it's been a long, dramatic, somewhat
confusing road. As we draw this year to a close, it's time to
move on to a new phase of our lives.
Jason Ionello: Pray nothing crazy happens again because
are the Avengers even a thing anymore? Does anyone even
have a plan?!
[In a classroom, Peter Parker sits down next to Ned Leeds.]
Peter Parker: I have a plan. (enthusiastic) Okay, first, I sit
next to MJ on the flight.
Ned Leeds: Mhm.
Peter Parker: Second, I’m gonna buy a dual headphone
adapter and watch movies with her the whole time.
Ned Leeds: Okay.
Peter Parker: Three, while we go to Venice, Venice is super
famous for making stuff out of glass, right?
Ned Leeds: True.
Peter Parker: So, I’m gonna buy her a Black Dahlia necklace,
because her favorite flower is the Black Dahlia, because of,
well...
Ned Leeds: The Murder.
Peter Parker: The Murder. Four, when we go to Paris, I’m
gonna take her to the top of the Eiffel Tower, give her the
necklace...
Ned Leeds: Oh!
Peter Parker: And then five, I’m gonna tell her how I
feel...And then six, hopefully she tells me she feels the same
way.
Ned Leeds: Oh! Don’t forget step seven.
Peter Parker: [thinking] Step seven...
Ned Leeds: Don’t do any of that.
[Peter looks up, confused.]
Peter Parker: Why?
Ned Leeds: Because we’re gonna be bachelors in Europe,
Peter!
Peter Parker: Ned, look.
Ned Leeds: I may not know much, but I do know one thing:
Europeans love Americans.
Peter Parker: ...Really?
Ned Leeds: And more than half of them are women!
Peter Parker: Okay, sure, but...I really like MJ, man. Okay?
She’s awesome, she’s funny in a sort of dork way, and
sometimes I catch her looking at me, and I feel stood
up...Wait. Dude, she’s coming now. Just don’t say anything.
[Michelle Jones walks over to them.]
MJ: What’s up, dorks? Excited about the science trip?
Peter Parker: Hey, uh, yeah. We’re just talking about the trip.
Ned Leeds: Yeah, and Peter’s plan.
MJ: You have a plan?
Peter Parker: I don’t have a plan.
Ned Leeds: No, he’s just going to collect tiny spoons while
we’re traveling to other countries. (winks at Peter)
MJ: Like a grandmother?
Peter Parker: I’m not collecting tiny spoons. He’s collecting
tiny spoons.
MJ: Oh. Okay, well, that was a real roller coaster.
Peter Parker: Mhm...
Mj: By the way, travel tip: You should probably download a
VPN on your phone, just so that the government can’t track
you while we’re abroad.
Peter Parker: Smart. Will do.
[MJ leaves.]
Ned Leeds: Dude, I think that went really great!
[Peter seems to disagree.]
[In the Homeless Support building, Spider-Man (in his Iron
Spider suit) and his Aunt May are on stage.]
Aunt May: When I first blipped back to my apartment, the
family living there was very confused. The wife thought that I
was a mistress. (the audience laughs) The Grandma thought
that I was a ghost. (more laughter) It was, (laughs) it was
really a mess. Thank you all for coming out to support those
who we’re misplaced by the Blip, and, of course, thank you
Spider-Man!
[The audience erupts in applause for Spider-Man. Aunt May
gestures Peter to the microphone.]
Spider-Man: Thank you, Ms. Parker, for having me. And thank
you you guys for having me. [Awkwardly gives the audience
a thumbs-up.]
[The audience cheers once more.]
Aunt May: Thank you Spider-Man, he’ll be right back out to
take photos and videos, thank you!
[Peter and Aunt May head backstage. Peter unmasks
himself.]
Peter Parker: That was amazing.
Aunt May: That was great. (high-fives Peter)
Peter Parker: Ah, that was so cool. I was a little nervous!
Aunt May: My body was a little stiff, I felt like I wasn’t in the
pocket.
Peter Parker: No, I thought you did great!
Aunt May: Yeah, well, actually, I did think you were a little
stiff.
Peter Parker: [shrugs] I felt that, too, I felt that, too.
Aunt May: It’s fine, it’s fine, it’s fine. Did you get your
passport?
Peter Parker: Yeah.
Aunt May: Mini toothpaste?
Peter: Yeah.
[Happy Hogan enters. He’s carrying a big check for the
homeless.]
Happy Hogan: Hey, sorry I’m late.
Peter Parker: Happy, hey!
Happy Hogan: [to May] Oh, you look lovely.
Aunt May: Thanks, you too.
Happy Hogan: Thanks. New dress?
Aunt May: Uh, yeah. Yes, it is. That’s a new beard.
[Peter looks back in forth between the two, confused.]
Happy Hogan: It’s my Blip beard, because I grew it in the
blip. Blip beard.
Aunt May: I see.
Happy: Anyway, the reason I'm late is becasue this was
misplaced. Can you belive it? Because its enormous. Not the
amount, the size. The amount and the size.
Aunt May: (laughs) Oh.
Happy Hogan: The very generous Pepper Potts, said...
Aunt May: Thank you.
Happy Hogan: ...she’s sorry she couldn’t be here.
[Peter is still looking at them in confusion]
Aunt May: I think I’m going to go change the Sterno under
the vegan lasagna. (to Peter) Spider-Man, go shake hands.
Peter Parker: Will do. [turns to Happy as May leaves] What
just happened?
Happy Hogan: Heads up, Nick Fury is calling you.
Peter Parker: Nick Fury’s going to call me?
Happy Hogan: Yeah.
Peter Parker: Why?
Happy Hogan: Why? Because he probably has some hero
stuff for you to do. You’re a superhero. He calls superheroes.
Peter Parker: Well, I mean if it was really that important, he’d
probably call someone else. Not me.
[inside Peter’s bag, his phone begins to ring]
Happy Hogan: Apparently not. [Peter pulls out his phone
from the bag] No caller ID. That’s him.
Peter Parker: I don’t really want to talk to Nick Fury.
Happy Hogan: Answer the phone.
Peter Parker: Why?
Happy Hogan: Because if you don’t talk to him, then I have to
talk, and I don’t want to talk to him.
Peter Parker: Why don’t you want to talk to him?
Happy Hogan: Because I’m scared . . . Just answer the
phone. [Peter holds up his phone, and declines the call] You
sent Nick Fury to voice mail?
Peter Parker: Yeah.
Happy Hogan: You don’t send Nick Fury to voice mail!
Peter Parker: Did you hear that? They’re calling me. I got to
go. I got to go.
[Peter starts to back away]
Happy Hogan: You got to talk to him.
Peter Parker: I’m going to call him. I promise you. I’m going
to call him. I will.
Happy Hogan: You do not ghost Nick Fury!
Peter Parker: I promise you, I’ll call him. [Peter backs out of
the room through the curtains, and whispers to himself] After
my trip.
[Peter puts his iron-mask on as he backs away and turns
around to open the curtain. He jumps up as he enters the
stage]
Peter Parker: Hey! [waves]
From the other room, Happy gets buzzed. He puts his phone
up to his ear.
Happy Hogan: Yeah? Hi -- No, no, he's not ghosting you.
[FROM THE STAGE]
[Reporters crowd all around Peter as he just entered. The
crowd is speaking indistinctly. Peter backs away, putting a
hand up, so they could stay back.]
Peter Parker: Okay, one question at a time.
[Peter points to the Asian woman.]
Woman: Are you the head Avenger? Are you the head
Avenger now?
Peter Parker: Uh, no I'm not.
[He points to another woman, who leans over the crowd of
reporters.]
Woman: If the aliens come back, what are you gonna do?
[Peter looks around.]
Peter Parker: Does anyone have any neighborhood
questions?
[Everyone starts asking desperately. He leans in for a man to
ask a question, hoping it's a neighborhood question.]
Sean: Sean Wilford, Queens Tribune. What is it like to take
over from Tony Stark? Those are some big shoes to fill.
[His question echoes Peter's mind. Everyone's still asking
questions as he has time to think of his answer. He started to
have anxiety and feels like he is about to pass out.]
Peter Parker: I'm uh-- I'm going to go. Thanks so much,
everyone, for coming.
[He jumps up to the roof, to only find himself on top, looking
out onto the city. His mask fades off and he breathes deeply
as a large train passes by. A cellphone buzzes in his
backpack and he reaches to get it. He never answers and the
buzzing stops as he looks back into the city. He turns to his
left to see a painting of Iron-Man coming right at him. He
blinks as he turns away, feeling the pain and sorrow as he
thinks about his long-lost friend.]
[PETER'S ROOM]
[An unknown phone number shows up on Peter's cracked
phone as he packs his suitcase. He looks at it, but he sets it
back down, upset. He pulls a bin from underneath the bed
and takes some clothes out and sniffs them as he places it in
his suitcase. He gets up, exhausted.]
Peter Parker: Okay.
[He stays there for a moment before he turns his head to see
his old Spider-Man suit, hanging from his closet. He looks at
it. He closes the closet. Suddenly, May Parker comes in with
an banana in her hand.]
May Parker: Hungry?
[She throws the banana peel onto Peter's shoulder. It hits
him and he jerks back, petrified. He gasps as he turns around
to see May with her hands on her mouth, shocked.]
May Parker: Oh... So sorry. Ha-ha. I thought you could sense
that with your Peter-tingle.
[She points at him with a smile. He sighs, exhausted at that
nickname.]
Peter Parker: Please do not start calling it Peter-tingle.
May Parker: So what's up? You can dodge bullets but not
bananas?
Peter Parker: No, I just really need this vacation. I need a
break.
[May Parker comes to wrap her arms around Peter's neck.
She hugs him.]
May Parker: You deserve it.
[She rubs his shoulders as she pulls away.]
May Parker: Yeah. [Turns around] You know what? You
should pack your suit, just in case. I have a tingle about it.
[May Parker smirks as she walks away. Peter cringes.]
Peter Parker: Please stop saying "tingle," May.
[He looks over at his suit.]
Peter Parker: No. [he closes the closet door]
[He looks over at his new suit that is in a cage. It looks like
magic floating around it and a sign behind it says 'Iron
Spider Charging Do Not Unplug.' His hand is still on the
closet door as he looks at it in deep thought.]
Peter Parker: No. No, I'm not.
[He closes his suitcase.]
[AIRPLANE]
As the airplane flies by, we see Peter opening his window
and looking out at the view. He smiles happily.
Ned taps him on the shoulder, excitedly.
Ned Leeds: Yeah!
Man 1: Can you help me get my stuff up?
Woman 1: Oh, sorry, that's mine.
Man 2: No worries.
[Betty Brant comes in, waving at some people. Mr.
Harrington comes behind her, looking around the place.]
Mr. Harrington: Do you want the first shift or the second? I
could take either.
Mr. Dell: Give me the third shift. I took an Ambien.
Mr. Harrington: I can't chaperone these kids alone.
[Suddenly, a familiar voice can be heard from the other side
of the plane. It's Flash Thompson. He held a drink in his
hand.]
Flash Thompson: Yo, Parker! This, is called an airplane. It's
like the buses you're used to, [MJ walks by] except it flies
over the poor neighborhoods instead of driving through
them.
[MJ leans over to the flight attendant. Brad Davis is with her.]
MJ: Ma'am?
Flight Attendant: Mm-hm?
MJ: He blipped, so technically, he's 16, not 21.
[Flash Thompson blinks at MJ as the flight attendant reaches
to grab his drink out of his hand. He looks down as she
grabs it.]
Flight Attendant: I'll take that.
[People start to laugh as Flash Thompson's eyes are big. He
turns to her.]
Flash Thompson: She's lying! I don't even know this girl.
[MJ turns around to the boys that are sitting there as Flash
Thompson leaves. She looks at them and lifts her chin up in
a 'hi' kind of way. Brad Davis smiles at them as he passes
by.]
Brad Davis: Classic MJ, right?
[Peter Parker looks over at Brad Davis with a creeped out
expression as Ned Leeds sits there with a cool one. He turns
his head as Peter Parker starts talking.]
Peter Parker: Did you know Brad was coming?
[Ned Leeds shakes his head.]
Ned Leeds: It-- It's so weird. Like, one day, he's that kid who
cried and got nosebleeds all the time, and suddenly, we Blip
back, and he's totally ripped and super nice and all these
girls are after him.
[Peter narrows his eyebrows as they turn back around from
watching Brad and MJ put their stuff in the ceiling.]
Peter: Not all the girls are after him.
Ned: No, man. They're all after him.
MJ and Brad are helping each other out.]
MJ [giggling]: Yeah. Here.
Ned turns back around.
Ned: Anyway, on to more important things. [He unzips his
bag. He shows Peter what he has.] It's a nine-hour flight. We
can play Beast Slayers the whole time.
Peter looks back at MJ, staring at her for a split second
before leaned into Ned's ear to whisper.
Peter: I need your help to sit next to MJ.
Ned rolls his eyes as he sighs. Peter looked back at MJ
again.
Ned: Seriously?
Peter: Yes, seriously.
Ned: What about all our plan? American bachelors in Europe!
Peter: That's your plan! That's a solo plan. Come on, this is
my plan.
Ned looks at him with solemn eyes. He turns around and
back again. Peter looks desperately at him.
Peter: Please.
Ned rolls his eyes as his head leans back.
Ned gets up from his seat over to MJ and Betty, who are
sitting next to each other. They look up at him.
Ned: Hey, guys. Uh, there's an old lady in front of us wearing
a crazy amount of perfume and it's kind of setting off Peter's
allergies. Uh, Betty, if you could switch seats with him, that
would be--
Betty: He's allergic to perfume?
Ned stays silent and shakes his head.
Ned: Yeah, yeah, because it-- it makes his eyes water, and he
can't really--
Mr. Harrington turns around in his seat after eavesdropping
on the conversation.
Mr. Harrington: Peter has a perfume allergy?
Ned: Oh, uh...
Mr. Harrington: From experience, perfume allergies are no
joke. I can feel hives breaking out already. MJ, stand up.
Mr. Harrington gets up from his seat as Peter does. MJ
stands up as Mr. Harrington gives orders.
Mr. Harrington: Ned, take MJ's spot. MJ, you take my spot.
[Mr. Harrington turns toward Peter] Peter, let's get you out of
there.
MJ: Sorry.
Mr. Harrington: Zach and Sebastian, you take Ned and
Peter's seats.
Brad: That's all right.
Mr. Harrington: Ned, thanks for bringing this to my attention.
Your safety is my responsibility and Mr. Dell's, but he's... [Mr.
Dell can be seen snoring] I got it for now. Let's go, Peter!
Peter looks at Mr. Harrington like he's gone bonkers and
picks up his bag.
Mr. Harrington: Let's go!
Peter moves to his spot as Ned sits down next to Betty, who
looks depressed.
Peter passed by Mr. Harrington and sat down at the spot next
to him.
Mr. Harrington: Yeah, I have a small bladder, so I took the
aisle.
Ned turns around to Betty.
Ned: So did you want to play Beast Slayer?
Betty: Nope.
Awkward silence.
Ned: Have you ever played any kind of PC game or--?
Betty: No.
Ned: Got it.
Peter is in the back with Mr. Harrington, looking upset as the
teacher is telling a story.
Mr. Harrington: Did I ever tell you how my wife pretended to
Blip out?
Peter doesn't answer.
Mr. Harrington: Turns out, she ran off with a guy in her hiking
group. We had a fake funeral for her and everything. Well, the
funeral was real because I thought she was really dead.
Wanna see the video?
Brad: Well, I've gotta dual headphone adapter if you wanna
watch a movie.
MJ: Only if it's depressing, or hilarious.
Mr. Harrington: [To Peter] Oh you have a dual headphone
adapter. We can watch together.
Pilot: Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen, this is your
Captain speaking. Flight time today will be eight hours and
forty-nine minutes to Venice, Italy.
[AIRPORT - VENICE, ITALY]
Peter: Hey, man. Did you see Brad and MJ on the plane?
They were watching movies and laughing the entire time.
Ned: Dude, don’t worry, okay? I’m sure it’s nothing.
Betty: Hey, babe, can you hold this for me, please?
Ned: Yeah, of course
Betty: Thanks
Peter: What was that?
Ned: Well, we actually got to talking on the plane, and it turns
out we have a lot in common. So, uh, we’re boyfriend-
girlfriend now.
Peter: Whatever happened to being an American bachelor in
Europe?
Ned: Peter... those were the words of a boy. That boy, met a
woman. A very strong and powerful woman. And now, that
boy’s a man.
Betty: Babe?
Ned: Coming, babe.
Through customs, Peter is taken away from the group into a
private searching area. A stern-looking woman places the
case on a table, and unzips it.
Peter: There’s nothing in there, I swear
The case is opened and reveals — Peter’s Spider-Man suit.
There’s a yellow sticky-note taped to it saying “You almost
forgot this — May xx”. The woman picks up the banana
placed next to it.
Attendant: This, no.
Peter: Sorry.
Peter has now rushed back to the school group.
Peter: I’m here!
Mr Harrington: Wait, wait, wait, Peter’s here. Thank
goodness.
The school group took a boat through the Grand Canale in
Venice. They group are touristy, taking photos and videos of
Venice.
Their boat pulls up to the most dingy-looking hotel in the
area. With scaffolding covering the front, the ‘hotel’ sign
hanging ’by a thread’.
Mr Harrington: Looks like we’re here. The place isn’t looking
great because it’s getting some upgrades.
Student: This place is trash
Mr Harrington: That must be the concierge,
[INSIDE HOTEL]
Mr Harrington: Everyone, here we are! [He takes in the
desolate insides of the hotel — it’s just as bad as the outside,
maybe even worse] Oh whoa... whoa
MJ: We’re not staying here
Flash: This place is sinking.
Mr Harrington: [with feigned enthusiasm] I think you mean
charming!
Mr Dell: Okay everybody. Drop your bags off and we’re
gonna meet at the Da Vinci museum at 3. Go!
Me Harrington: Vamanos!
MJ: It’s andiamo.
Mr Harrington: Andiamo!
Mr Dell [to the students]: “When in Rome, you do as Romans
do. When you’re in Venice, your socks get wet!”
Students are now at the Saint Marco Polo’s Square.
Flash: What’s up Flash Mob, how are you guys doing? I’m in
Saint Marco Polo’s— Oh!
Someone — probably a student — runs past and hits Flash in
the groin. Flash doubles over.
Ned and Betty are getting a caricature drawing done of them.
Betty: This is so much fun!
Ned Yeah? [chuckles awkwardly]
Mr. Harrison is trying to take a photo of himself in front of the
scenery. He sets his camera on the railing and posed
awkwardly. The camera beeps and takes the picture.
Grabbing the camera, Mr. Harrison nearly drops it. He looks
at the picture and the camera slips from his hands, falling
into the water.
Students are taking a photo in front of a touristy thing
Student: Three, two, one, say ‘pizza!’
Other students: Pizza!
MJ is standing with her arms out, pigeons perched on her
arm and shoulder while Brad takes her picture.
Away from the crowd, Peter enters a small shop.
Peter: Buongiorno.
Shopkeeper: Buongiorno.
Peter: Hi, Uh, I’m looking for a, uh...
CUT TO THE NECKLACE BEING COMPLETED
Shopkeeper: Fiore Nero [he holds the black dahlia necklace
up to the light]
Peter: It’s perfect.
Peter has exited the shop and joined the fray of tourists and
locals in Venice. He’s smiling to himself as he holds the bag.
MJ comes up unexpectedly behind him.
MJ: Boh!
Peter: What?
MJ: Boh. It’s the most perfect word in the world. Italians
crated it, and I just discovered it.
Peter: What does it mean?
MJ: That’s the thing, it can mean a million things. It can mean
‘I don’t know’, ‘get out of my face’, ‘I don’t know and get out
of my face’. It’s the best thing Italy ever created, except for
maybe espresso.
Peter: Oh, so you’ve been drinking espresso.
An Italian man comes up to them, holding a rose, gesturing
between the pair.
Man: German? American?
MJ: Boh
The man frowns and walks off.
Peter: Whoa.
MJ: Boh is my new superpower. It’s like the anti aloha. I was
born to say this word... So, what’s in the bag?
Peter: Oh, uh.... Boh?
MJ: Nice.
MJ notices the many crabs escaping the water by drawing up
the pillars at one of the many docks. She pulls out her phone
to take a picture.
MJ: Whoa, cool.
Peter notices the water being sucked into a grate.
Waves rock the boat where Ned and Betty are comparing
hands and smiling at each other.
Betty: What was that?
The waves continue before the water becomes still for a split
second. Water erupts from the canal and people scream.
Ned and Betty scream as their boat is pushed towards shore
by the waves.
Peter: Betty! Are you okay?
Peter helps Betty and Ned our of the boat.
Peter: Come on!
Betty: Guys, we gotta go!
The water swirls into the air, forming the shape of a huge
man. The colossal water monster roars.
Ned: What is that?
Peter: I don’t know.
Ned: What’re you gonna do?
Peter: I left my suit in the hotel room.
Ned: Why?
Peter: Because I’m on vacation, Ned! Everyone’s gonna see
my face, get them outta here!
Peter pushes Ned towards the stairs where Betty and MJ are
waiting. The water monster smashes its hand into a building.
More people scream. The creature continues to smash
buildings and boats. Peter helps people off the stairs.
Peter: Get out of here. Go!
Peter turns back to the monster as it crashes into a building
in front of him. Peter stumbles back.
Peter: Oh, my God!
Peter runs up the stairs and barely makes it around the
corner before the monster smashes into the building where
he had been standing.
More people are screaming and running away.
Peter hits his wrist together to activate his web shooters.
Peter [whispers] Come on.
Peter moves around the corner and shoots a web at the
monster. The web does nothing, because the monster is
made out of water. Peter looks mildly exasperated.
[People screaming]
Peter turns to see the monster heading towards a bridge
swarming with people.
Peter Oh no, you don’t!
Peter jumps across poles in the water and launches himself
up onto the bridge by leaping off a peddle. He helps a man
up.
Peter You okay? Get out of here. Go!
The water monster slams it’s fist into the bridge and Peter is
sent flying backwards. He hits the other side of the bridge,
now soaking wet. He coughs up water, panting to catch his
breath.
A green light is seen shooting at the monster from above.
Behind Peter, there is a rumbling sound and a cloud of green
mist appears in the sky. Out of the mist, a man with an
elaborate suit with a cape appears, wearing a glass bowl over
his head that swirls with mist.
Peter looks around and sees a masquerade mask on the
ground.
The mysterious man shoots green light at the monster,
dodging its attacks as he flies through the air.
The man is thrown onto the ground and the monster roars.
The man emerges from the water and flies at the monster
once again.
Peter: Excuse me sir! I c- I can help! Let me help! I’m really
strong and I’m...sticky!
Mysterio: I need to lead it away from the canals!
The man flies off as the monster smashes into the building
where Peter stands. Peter flips away, landing on a nearby
roof.
The monster smashes through a building.
Peter swings around it, attaching webs to hold it together.
CUT TO THE TWO TEACHERS LEADING A SMALL GROUP
OF STUDENTS
Mr. Dell: The DaVinci Museum. This is why we’re her in
Venice.
Mr. Harrington: Oh, this is it. It’s closed.
Mr. Dell: What do you mean it’s closed? ‘Till when?
Brad and another student stand in front of the museum.
Student: November.
Mr. Dell: [to Mr. Harrington] You didn’t check the website?
Mr. Harrington: Oh, that’s a good idea.
Mysterio followed by a blast of water, shoot behind them and
the group runs.
CUT TO PETER ON THE ROOF
Peter sees that the bell tower is about to fall on a bunch of
people.
Peter: Oh, come on!
Peter swings towards the tower.
Mr. Dell: [leading a group of students] Stay low, kids. We’ll be
safe here.
Peter is swinging around the bell tower, using webs to stick
it back together. He lands in the top of the bell tower,
ducking under the bell to get to the other side.
Peter takes off his mask, watching Mysterio fight the
monster.
The bell tower starts to fall again.
Peter shoot a web, attaching it to two buildings across from
him.
The monster hits the tower again.
Peter falls, his head hitting the bell, making it ring.
Peter: [Groans]
The tower cracks again, pulling Peter by his webs across it.
Peter’s head hits the bell again.
The webs fall from the tower.
Peter shoots new webs, trying to hold the tower up.
Mysterio is still fighting the monster.
CUT TO GROUP OF STUDENTS WATCHING MYSTERIO
Student: Who is that guy?
Brad: I don’t know, but he’s kicking that water’s ass.
Mysterio defeats the water monster.
Peter is still trying to keep the bell tower from falling. He yells
out as the tower crumbles. His webs break and the tower
finally crashes to the ground.
Mysterio lands and people begin cheering.
Peter gets up, checking the black dahlia necklace to make
sure it’s not broken. He sighs in relief when he sees that it’s
intact.
Mysterio salutes the crowd as they cheer for him before
taking off and flying away in a cloud of green smoke.
---
[Just as Peter has left the bar, several things start to
gradually disappear, both objects and people are revealed to
be holograms. Quentin, sitting in the middle of the illusion,
starts to smile]
Quentin Beck: See? That wasn't so hard.
[The people that haven't vanished, erupt in applause and
cheers]
Quentin Beck: (overjoyed) Somebody get this stupid
costume off me!
[Outside, Peter walks past a memorial for Tony Stark, smiling
and convinced he has done the right thing. In the "bar",
Quentin, now without his superhero clothes, hands the
glasses to one of his associates]
Quentin Beck: Okay, we got EDITH. Get these connected to
our system.
Mysterio's Crew: Toast! Toast! Toast! Toast!
Quentin Beck: (trying to temper them) Now, this is a big win,
but we still got a lot of work to do.
Mysterio's Crew: Toast! Toast! Toast! Toast!
[It's clear that there's no chance to stop the victory whirl, so
Quentin steps on the counter]
Quentin Beck: Okay, toasts! Give me that, Doug! (grabs a
bottle of champagne) To the man who brought us all
together, our former boss, Tony Stark.
[He lifts the bottle in the air]
Mysterio's Crew: Boo!
Quentin Beck: The jester king. Literally wrapped, in wealth
and technology that he was unfit to wield. Like the
holographic system I designed. A revolutionary
breakthrough, with limitless applications, that Tony turned
into a self-therapy machine, and renamed...
[Brief flashback of Tony in Captain America: Civil War, where
he presents his final meeting with his parents, using the
same holographic technology]
Tony Stark: Binarily Augmented Retro-Framing, or BARF...
[The crowd laughs while the hologram disappears and Tony
takes of his glasses]
Tony Stark: Oh, $611,000,000 for my little therapeutic
experiment?
[Zoom in, Quentin Beck is standing behind Tony, with a
disgusted grimace on his face]
Quentin Beck (vo): He renamed my life's work, BARF.
[Back to the present]
Quentin Beck: I told him that it was a mistake. That my
technology can change the world. And then... He fired me.
Said I was... unstable. (determined) To Tony!
Mysterio's Crew: (all holding champagne) To Tony!
Quentin Beck: Next, to William.
[We get a brief flashback to the movie that started it all, Iron
Man, where Obediah Stane yells at one of his employees,
William Ginther Riva]
Obediah Stane: (yelling, pointing at William) Tony Stark was
able to build this in a cave! With a box of scraps!
[Brief zoom in, a wipe brings us back to the current William]
Quentin Beck: The integration of my illusion tech, with your
weaponized drones, was brilliant. Powerful illusions, real
damage, worked like a charm. And it's just the beginning.
William Ginther Riva: (proud) Thank you, brother.
Quentin Beck: To Guterman.
[Cut to another man, Quentin Beck's story writer and acting
coach]
Mysterio's Crew: To Guterman!
Quentin Beck: The story you created of a soldier from
another earth named Quentin fighting space monsters in
Europe, is totally ridiculous! And apparently exactly the kind
of thing people will believe right now. I mean, everybody
bought it.
[More cheers from the group]
Quentin Beck: To Victoria.
Mysterio's Crew: To Victoria!
[Cut to a woman in her late twenties, early thirties]
Quentin Beck: Staging electromagnetic pulses at each attack
sites with Fury's own satellites would confirm our lies?
Inspired idea. To Janice!
[Cut to another woman]
Mysterio's Crew: Janice!
Quentin Beck: After Tony died, she was the one who
discovered that EDITH was being handed over not to us, not
to the Defense Department, but to a child.
Janice: Thank you!
Man: (among the cheers) To Janice!
Quentin Beck: To the rest of you, Tony Stark is gone. There
is a window of opportunity and someone will step up. But
these days, you can be the smartest guy in the room, the
most qualified, and no one cares. Unless you're flying around
with a cape, or shooting lasers from your hands, no one will
even listen. Well, I've got a cape. And lasers. (cheers) With
our technology, and with EDITH, Mysterio will be the greatest
hero on Earth. (more cheers) And everyone will listen. Not to
a boozey man-child.
Mysterio's Crew: No!
Quentin Beck: Not to a hormonal teenager.
Mysterio's Crew: No!
Quentin Beck: To me! And to my very wealthy crew. To us.
Mysterio's Crew: To us!
Quentin Beck: (lifting the bottle) To Mysterio!
Mysterio's Crew: To Mysterio!
Quentin Beck: To Peter Parker.
Mysterio's Crew: To Peter Parker!
Quentin Beck: (a bit of guilt) Poor kid. (back to business)
Let's get to work.
---
[We see Mysterio flying around some kind of a storm
Elemental, firing lasers at it]
Quentin Beck (vo): You took everything from me! This is for
my family.
[The camera pans down, several people of Mysterio's crew
admire or inspect the scene, while William is looking on his
phone]
Quentin Beck: Pause. Pause?
[We see Quentin Beck standing in the middle of the room,
which looks suspiciously like a movie studio. He wears a
motion capture outfit]
William Ginther Riva: (looking up) Sorry.
[William pauses the illusion]
Quentin Beck: Yeah, uh, can you just fast-forward to the
end?
William Ginther Riva: Yeah. Standby.
[The visual flashes forward to the climax]
Quentin Beck: (mumbling to himself) Right. Fly, fly, fly... Zap,
zap, zap... Pause.
[The Elemental freezes again]
Quentin Beck: I'm not in love with this choreography, but it'll
do. Kill image.
[The illusion disappears]
Quentin Beck: Decloak drones.
[Where the Elemental used to be, several drones appear out
of thin air when their cloaking devices are deactivated]
Quentin Beck: Right, weapons?
You wanna weaponize them?
Quentin Beck: Yup.
William Ginther Riva: Weapons only. Standby.
[Several drones fly towards some prop pillars in the lot, firing
at them as they fly by]
William Ginther Riva: Nice.
Quentin Beck: Stop. Something... I don't know what it is. It's
something... Just... You know what? Double the damage, and
then run it again.
William Ginther Riva: You want me to double it up?
Quentin Beck: Yeah.
William Ginther Riva: Alright. Cover your ears.
[The image of the Elemental appears again. Through the
underlying drones, it seems like he punches the pillars to
pieces. Shortly thereafter, the holographic Mysterio fires a
laser at it and defeats it]
Quentin Beck: Good. That's good.
[William gives two thumbs up]
Quentin Beck: We're on schedule?
William Ginther Riva: Oh, yeah. Uploading software hack to
EDITH network, where drones will be able to create an event
big enough to cover an entire city.
Quentin Beck: Right, well done. Make sure every drone is
weapons hot. We need maximum damage.
Guterman: That's gonna cause a lot of casualties.
Quentin Beck: Oh, yeah. More casualties, more coverage. I
gotta cut through the static. London is a beautiful city and it
will suffer, but they can rebuild. If I'm gonna be the next Iron
Man, I need to save the world from an Avengers-level threat.
But, when its new saviour descends...
[The holographic projection of Mysterio flies down and
incapsulates Beck like a second skin. His voice is slightly
altered and amplified]
Quentin Beck (vo): ...all those casualties will be forgotten.
[Mysterio's helmet disappears, Beck directs his attention to
Janice, who is working on the real Mysterio suit]
Quentin Beck: Janice, you'll be in position with a quick
change armor. For the victory lap.
Janice: Of course. Do you want to try...
Quentin Beck: No, no. That's...
[The footage becomes slightly distorted around Beck's
waving upper arm]
Quentin Beck: What's going on with my hand? Why is that
happening?
William Ginther Riva: Oh, one of the drones that came back
from the plaza was missing a projector. It's fine.
Quentin Beck: Wait, and you're... You're telling me this, now?
William Ginther Riva: It's one drone. The image will be
perfect, I promise.
Quentin Beck: That projector is evidence. It's going to tell
people what we're doing and how we're doing it. I am trying,
to fool seven billion people here, including Nick Fury, who
happens to be the most paranoid and most dangerous
person on the planet.
[Beck seems to get more unhinged as he goes on]
Quentin Beck: And if he catches on before I've killed him,
then he will put a bullet in my head. And nobody wants a
bullet in their head. Right?
[Two drones fly towards Guterman and Victoria]
Quentin Beck: Right?!
[Two others fly towards William, aiming at his forehead]
Quentin Beck: William, can you look at me?
[He does]
Quentin Beck: Pull up EDITH.
E.D.I.T.H.: Hello, Quentin.
Quentin Beck: Yeah. Hi, honey. I need a level 5 search full
resource protocol for this device.
[A map is projected and steadily magnified]
E.D.I.T.H.: Magnifying...
Quentin Beck: There. Search everything going in and out of
that building.
E.D.I.T.H.: Located.
[Through video footage, we see how MJ got the projector,
took it to the bridge and showed it to Peter]
Quentin Beck: Shit. (looking back at William, furious) You
know William, one day, after I've had to kill Peter Parker
because of this... I hope you remember, that his blood is
on your hands!
---
[Peter then senses something]
Nick Fury: Parker? Parker!
Maria Hill: What's wrong?
Peter: It's Beck. He's here.
[He puts his eyepiece back when the hologram starts to
disappear, Maria Hill included. The facility is just an
abandoned building]
Nick Fury: (shocked) What? Hill?
Peter: No, it's just an ill...
[A missile is fired from behind Peter, seemingly hitting and
killing Fury]
Peter: Fury!
[He looks back and sees one of the weaponized drones. It
takes another shot, blasting Peter through the back wall,
causing him to fall several floors down. Quentin Beck's
voice, amplified, takes center stage. Peter gets surrounded
by drones, all pointing lasers at him]
Quentin Beck (vo): Wow, Peter. Wow. I thought we were
close. Fury always had to die. But not you.
Peter: Stop hiding, Beck!
[Peter shoots some web at one of the drones, but misses.
Their cloaking devices activate and they disappear, while
another illusion gets activated]
Quentin Beck (vo): I tried to help you walk away. Now you're
making me do this… do this… do this…
[Everything goes dark. Peter, now in his original Tony Stark
suit, looks in horror when lights fall down, revealing a school
corridor covered in green smoke. Mysterio walks towards
him]
Quentin Beck: You told me, you were just a kid.
[Peter shoots his web, but only green smoke sprays out of
his hands. Mysterio is then suddenly behind him]
Quentin Beck: You told me...
[Peter punches him, only to reveal it's a brick pillar]
Quentin Beck (vo): ...you wanted to run after that girl.
MJ (vo): Help me!
Peter: MJ!
[He runs through a door, when he's suddenly on top of the
Eiffel Tower. The door breaks loose and falls down. Peter
looks to his right and sees MJ, confused and scared]
MJ: Peter? What's going on?
Peter: I know this isn't real.
[Mysterio then materializes out of the full moon, grabbing MJ
by her neck]
Quentin Beck: Do you, though?
Peter: MJ!
[Mysterio throws her away, Peter dives after her]
Peter: MJ!
[The illusion disappears. Peter hits the floor, MJ's screams
still echoing through his head]
Quentin Beck (vo): I don't think you know what's real, Peter...
Peter... Peter...
[Several buildings pass Peter at incredible speeds. One of
the buildings, with a neon sign that says "Queens" above it,
stops before him. Mysterio's gigantic fist then punches
through it, sending Peter flying. He flies through the horizon,
it shatters like glass. After falling through some webs, the
illusion is briefly lifted]
Quentin Beck (vo): (distorted) You need to wake up!
[Peter crashes on top of a car. He gets back on the ground,
looking around, breathing anxiously. A dozen of drones then
fly out of the windows of the building, the illusion continues.
Huge shards of glass fall down, surrounding Peter]
Quentin Beck (vo): I mean, look at yourself.
[When Peter reaches out to touch one of his reflections, the
reflection comes to life, grabbing his hand. Dozens of Spider-
Men hurl themselves at Peter, pulling his suit away]
Quentin Beck (vo): You are just a scared little kid in a
sweatsuit!
[The Spider-Men vanish, Peter is now in his homemade suit.
He stands among the ruins of a Captain America statue]
Quentin Beck (vo): I created Mysterio to give the world
someone to believe in.
[The camera focusses on a colossal Mysterio statue]
Quentin Beck (vo): I control the truth! Mysterio is the truth.
[Mysterio attacks, firing lasers at Spider-Man. He ducks away
and grabs Mysterio with his web. He pulls, only for him to
disappear, he had pulled a crane down. He avoids the crane,
but not the stone arm that falls on top of him while he
screams. Peter then stands by Anthony Edward Stark's
grave]
Quentin Beck (vo): If you were good enough, (softer) maybe
Tony would still be alive.
[A mechanized hand bursts out of the ground, trying to grab
Peter, who scurries back in fear. The partially decomposed
corpse of Tony Stark in an Iron Man suit crawls out of the
grave and hovers up. We zoom in on the eye socket, a black
widow spider crawls out of it, the eyes transform in several
marching Mysterios]
Quentin Beck: Deep down, you know I'm right.
[Zoom in on one of the eyes on his costume. It opens and
Spider-Man then finds himself in a gigantic snow globe,
several buildings shoot out of the snow, surrounding him.
We zoom out, the snow globe is Mysterio's head, who
detaches it from his body]
Quentin Beck (vo): You made your choice, and all you had to
do was step aside. And now, you ha-
[Bang! The illusion suddenly vanishes when Quentin, in his
mo-cap outfit, falls on his knees. As he falls to the ground,
Fury limps towards Peter, who had been lying in a pile of
sand. Several operatives drive onto the scene, get out of
their cars and surround Beck]
Peter: (crawling out of the sand) Fury!
Nick Fury: Beck's people... We're trying to find everyone who
could expose him. Who'd you tell?
Peter: Eh...
Nick Fury: I know you told someone. So, just tell me...
Peter: Okay...
Nick Fury: Who did you tell? (raises his voice) Who else did
you tell?
Peter: Just Ned and MJ from my class, and maybe Ned told
his girlfriend Betty, but that's it.
[Nick chuckles evilly and shakes his head]
Peter: What?
Nick Fury: You... are so dumb.
Peter: What?
Nick Fury: I mean, you're smart as a whip. Just a...
Quentin Beck (vo): ...sucker.
[The last piece of the illusion is lifted, Nick Fury was Beck the
whole time]
Quentin Beck: Now all your friends have to die.
[The two drones on Quentin's sides project a stream of
illusions to scare Peter away]
Quentin Beck: It's easy to fool people when they're already
fooling themselves. But for what it's worth, Peter... I really am
sorry.
[The illusion stops. Peter, confused, gets hit by a train, which
drives away into a tunnel]
Quentin Beck: EDITH?
E.D.I.T.H.: Yes, Quentin?
Quentin Beck: Access files to Peter Parker's class trip. I need
them to fly home from London.
[Peter, dazed and bruised by the impact of the train, climbs
on the train's side. He enters it and sits down in one of the
seats, before he falls unconscious. Cut to black. He wakes up
in a prison cell, an orange football shirt over his chest. He
looks to his right to see a Dutch football hooligan]
Dutch Football Hooligan #1: Hi.
Peter: (confused) Where am I?
[Another hooligan, sitting to Peter's left, answers]
Dutch Football Hooligan #2: Municipal holding facility.
Dutch Football Hooligan #1: They said they found you
unconscious at the train yard. Very dangerous.
Dutch Football Hooligan #3: We gave you the shirt because
you seemed a bit cold.
Peter: Thanks. You guys are nice. You speak really good
English.
All Three: Welcome to the Netherlands.
Peter: I'm in the Netherlands right now?
Dutch Football Hooligan #1: Yup.
[Peter stands up and runs to the cell door]
Peter: (calling out) Guard?
Dutch Football Hooligan #1: The guard's on a break.
Probably talking to his wife.
Dutch Football Hooligan #2: Yeah. She's pregnant.
Dutch Football Hooligan #3: (in Dutch) Oh ja? Wat leuk!
Dutch Football Hooligan #2: (responds in Dutch) Ja, vier
weken al.
[Peter breaks the lock with his hand, opens the door and
leaves the cell. One of the hooligans stands up and walks to
the open door. Peter looks to his left to see the guard
wearing the Night Monkey mask. He is indeed talking over
the phone to someone]
Guard: Yeah. Yeah. Night Monkey. Yeah.
[Peter leaves the building, the guard directs his attention to
the, no longer locked up, hooligans]
Guard: You guys okay?
[The hooligan closes the door. Peter, now outside on a rather
stereotypical farmers market, puts the football shirt on. After
stepping in something, he makes his way to a cheese farmer]
Peter: Excuse me, sir? Can I borrow your phone?
Cheese Farmer: (in Dutch) Ja, zeker.
[He hands Peter his phone]
Peter: Everyone's so nice here.
[He thinks about who to call for a bit, before typing in Happy
Hogan's cell]
Peter: Okay... Pick up, pick up, pick up... Hey. Hey! Uh... I
messed up. I need a... I need a ride. Where am I? Uh... where
am I, sir?
Cheese Farmer: (in Dutch) Het is Broek op Langedijk.
[Peter, clearly having difficulty with Dutch pronunciation,
asks the cheese farmer for another favor]
Peter: Hang on, could you say that into there?
Cheese Farmer: Hi, it's Broek op Langedijk.
[Title card: Broek op Langedijk, Netherlands]
Cheese Farmer: Yeah, no problem.
Peter: Thanks. (over the phone) Did you get that?
[Cut to a tulip field. Peter is walking between rows of tulips,
one pink and one yellow. A roaring sound as the Quinjet
appears, landing in front of him as he staggers forward. A
door opens and Happy walks down the stairs]
Happy: Peter? Are you okay?
Peter: Happy, is that you?
Happy: Is it me? Yeah, of course it's me!
[Peter hesitates, then halts]
Peter: Stop! Tell me something only you would know!
Happy: Something only I would know. Uh. You-I-
uh, remember when we went to Germany? You pay-for-
viewed a video in your room? They didn't list the titles, but I
could tell by the price it was an adult film at the front desk.
And you didn't know how I knew-
Peter: Okay! Okay! Fine, it's you, it's you, stop!
[They hug]
Peter: It's so good to see you.
Happy: Peter, you're going to have to tell me what the hell is
going on here.
[Happy is stitching up wounds in Peter's back, clearly
causing pain]
Happy: Okay... hold still. Here we go.
[Peter visibly flinches]
Happy: I thought you had super strength.
Peter: It still hurts!
Happy: All right, relax. Just a few more... there we go.
[Peter yells in pain and slams his fist on the table.]
Happy: Relax!
[Peter jumps up from his chair.]
Peter: Don't tell me to relax, Happy, how can I relax when I've
messed up so bad? I trusted Beck. Right? I thought he was
my friend so I gave him the only thing that Mr. Stark left
behind for me and now he's going to kill my friends and half
of Europe, so please do not tell me to relax.
[He sits down, silent for a few moments.]
Peter: I'm sorry. I'm sorry, I shouldn't shout. I just really miss
him.
Happy: Yeah, I miss him too.
Peter: Everywhere I go, I see his face. And the whole world is
asking who is going to be the next Iron Man and... I don't
know if that's me, Happy. I'm not Iron Man.
Happy: You're not Iron Man. You're never going to be Iron
Man. Nobody can live up to Tony. Not even Tony. Tony was
my best friend. And he was a mess. He second-guessed
everything he did, he was all over the place. The one thing he
did that he didn't second-guess was picking you. I don't think
Tony would've done what he did... if he didn't know that you
were going to be here after he was gone. Your friends are in
trouble. You're all alone. The tech is missing. What are you
gonna do about it?
Peter, standing up: I'm gonna kick his ass.
Happy: No, I mean right now. Specifically, what are we gonna
do? Because we've been hovering over a tulip field for the
last fifteen minutes.
Peter: Right, um... I can't call my friends because he's
tracking their phones... uh, give me your phone?
[He walks over to Happy.]
Happy: My, my cell phone?
Peter: Yeah.
Happy: Okay. Here.
Peter: What's your password?
Happy: Password.
Peter: No, what is your password?
Happy: Password. The word. Spell it out, password.
Peter: You're the head of security and your password is
'password'?
Happy: Yeah, I don't feel good about it either.
[Peter has pulled up an app where Flash is vlogging.]
Flash, over the phone: Ello, governor! Cup of tea for you?
I'mma be in London.
Peter: They're in London.
Happy: London? Okay.
[He gets up, moving toward the front of the Quinjet]
Peter: Yeah. I need a suit!
[Happy turns, a bit of a grin on his face.]
Happy: Suit?
[Happy turns again and walks forward, pressing some
buttons on the ceiling. Behind Peter, a compartment opens.
The two turn and make eye contact, Peter smiling, then he
turns back toward the compartment and moves toward it.
Another small compartment opens as Peter stares at it. A
small metal pad descends from a part of the ceiling, and
Peter puts his hand on it. Blue lights appear, and he steps
back.]
Peter: Okay, um... bring up everything you have on Spider-
Man.
[Holograms appear, and Peter scrolls through them as Happy
watches.]
Peter: Yeah, open that. Okay. No, no, no...
[He turns around with a holographic web shooter when
he notices Happy watching him.]
Peter: What?
Happy: Nothing. You take care of the suit, I take care of the
music.
[Happy presses a few more buttons on the ceiling, the song
Back in Black by ACDC comes on.]
Peter, tossing a wrench in the air: Oh, I love Led Zeppelin!
[The plane takes off from the field of tulips, and Peter
expands a hologram of the Spider-Man suit.]
Peter: Okay, can you pull up my webshooters?
[A hologram of the webshooter appears, and Peter pulls out
a small part.]
Peter: Isolate the taser webs and reconfigure and boost the
voltage to a factor of... 25 percent. And with complete manual
control over detonation.
[Scene cuts to Nick Fury and Maria Hill walking through the
halls of a building.]
Fury: I thought Kree having sleeper cells was top-secret
information.
Maria: Nick... satellites are picking up an E.M. pulse.
Fury: I thought that was over.
Maria: It's the biggest one yet.
Fury: Where?
Maria: London.
[Cuts to the Decathlon team, walking through an airport.]
Mr. Harrington: Okay guys, the company set up a city tour,
and then we'll grab a bite, then head to the airport.
Brad: Is no one else gonna acknowledge how crazy this is?
Mr. Dell: I get it. There's been nothing scientific about this
science tour at all.
Brad: No, no, no. I'm talking about Peter. Has no one else
here noticed how shady he is? Because I saw him in a
bathroom of a reststop with some woman, in his underwear...
[Ned and MJ exchange glances.]
Brad, continuing: ...and he's always sneaking away! Like
back at the opera? Huh? And now what, he's suddenly off the
trip? With his family in Berlin? Is no one else here interested
in the truth?
[Ned lifts a hand, presumably about to talk, but MJ puts an
arm in front of him.]
MJ: "The very concept of objective truth is fading out of the
world."
Brad: George Orwell. Thank you, MJ.
MJ: Yeah, well. I mean, since Peter's not here to tell his truth,
what about you, Brad? Why do you think it's cool to take
pictures of people in the bathroom?
Flash, clearly recording it: Yeah, dude. What's that about?
Brad: No, no, it wasn't like that! It was... I was just trying to
take...
Mr. Harrington: Let's just put all this craziness behind us,
and have a nice, peaceful afternoon. "Sounds great, Mr.
Harrington," said the class, okay...
[They leave, all except for Mr. Dell and Brad.]
Mr. Dell: I'm gonna be the cool teacher right now... you've got
to stop doing that, okay? It is weird. No more photos in the
bathroom. Urinal or stalls. Okay?
[Cut to the rest of the science team.]
Mr. Harrington: Look at this!
Bus Driver: Mr. Harrington. Come on.
Mr. Harrington: We've got a bus all to ourselves!
Bus Driver: Nice to see you all. Come along.
[Kids hand the man some backpacks. They go onto the bus.
The driver presses a button on an earpiece clearly in his ear.]
Bus Driver: I have the kids.
[Cut to Mysterio, flying around the city, before hovering
outside a window in front of Nick Fury.]
Beck: I got here as fast as I could. I did a full perimeter
sweep. Nothing.
Fury: Damn it.
Maria: Pulse is spiking.
[Beck turns to fly off.]
Beck: I'll take another look.
Fury: Soon as you see something, report. You're all we got,
Beck.
Beck: This is what I fear. May God help us, Fury.
[Cuts to Beck standing in a film suit, two drones hovering at
his side.]
Beck: God help us all.
[A dramatic pause.]
Beck: Okay, people, no Avengers coming. We're good to go.
William, launch the drones.
William, in another location: Copy that, brother. Drones are
entering the atmosphere, weapons hot.
[Cuts to a Stark satellite, releasing hundreds of drones.]
Beck: Excellent. Janice?
Janice: Still working on the cape.
Beck: You gotta get those wrinkles out in a few hours. I could
literally be shaking hands with the Queen. Guterman?
Guterman/Bus Driver: Almost in position.
Beck: Okay, hit it, Victoria.
Victoria: Increasing pulse.
[Cut to Maria Hill on her computer, watching the pulse.]
Maria: Whatever this thing is, it's a hundred times bigger
than the previous ones.
Beck: EDITH?
EDITH: Yes, Quentin.
Beck: Show me my loose ends.
[Holograms showing Nick Fury and Maria Hill show up, then
switch to Betty Brant, MJ, and Ned.]
Beck: Once the show's going, execute a kill order on my
command.
EDITH: Copy.

[Mid-credits scene]
Pat Kiernan: We come to you now with revelations about last
week's attack in London. An anonymous source provided
this video, it shows Quentin Beck, aka, Mysterio, moments
before his death. A warning, you may find this video
disturbing.
[Cut to altered footage of the Tower Bridge battle]
Mysterio: I managed to send the Elemental back into the
dimensional rift, but I don't think I'm gonna make it off this
bridge alive. Spider-Man attacked me for some reason. He
has an army of weaponized drones, Stark technology. He's
saying he's the only one who's gonna be the new Iron Man,
no one else.
E.D.I.T.H.: Are you sure you want to commence the drone
attack? There will be significant casualties.
Spider-Man: Do it. Execute them all.
[We hear the sound of drones firing and people screaming.
While Peter and MJ watch, the newscaster comes back on
screen]
Pat Kiernan: This shocking video was released earlier today
on the controversial news website, 'TheDailyBugle.net.'
[Cut to J. Jonah Jameson on the news screen, played by the
one and only J.K. Simmons]
J. Jonah Jameson: There you have it, folks. Conclusive proof
that Spider-Man was responsible for the brutal murder of
Mysterio! An inter-dimensional warrior who gave his life to
protect our planet, and who will no doubt go down in history
as the greatest superhero of all time. But that's not all, folks.
Here's the real blockbuster. Brace yourselves, you might
wanna sit down.
[Cut back to altered footage of the Tower Bridge battle]
Beck: Spider-Man's real... Spider-Man's real name is...
Spider-Man's name is Peter Parker! [Exposes Parker's school
picture]
[Cut to Peter]
Peter: [Horrified] WHAT THE FU...?!
[The credits go by with Michael Giacchino's killer score
behind them. Once they've finished, we cut to a car being
driven by Fury, with Maria Hill sitting next to him. Their eyes
briefly meet, before Maria Hill transforms into a Skrull, Soren,
last seen in Captain Marvel]
Soren: You've got to tell him.
[Nick Fury transforms into Talos, also from Captain Marvel]
Talos: (trying to comfort his wife) It was fine. The little boy
handled it, we helped...
Soren: Talos.
Talos: (annoyed) Come on, Soren, how was I supposed to
know the whole thing was fake? I mean, that was all very,
very convincing, you know. The performances, the illusion,
that costume, the craftsmanship in that. I mean, this is just
embarrassing for a shape-shifter. Fine!
[While driving, he pulls out a smartphone to contact Fury.
During the call, we see Talos in a POV shot, mimicking a
phone camera]
Talos: Hey there. I hope your mission is going well. We gave
the glasses to Parker, about a week ago, like you said. And,
uh, it was very touching, you know? Really, really quite
touching.
Soren (vo): Talos.
Talos: And, uh, you know, shortly after that, everything kind
of went off the rails, and so we need you to come back.
Because everyone kept asking me where the Avengers are,
and I don’t know what to say to that.
[We cut to the real Nick Fury, resting on a beach, lying in a
