The next morning, Aunt May wakes up in her bed. She takes the blankets off of her and sits up. She stands up out of bed. May walks out of the bedroom and walks down a hallway. The house is littered with pictures of Peter, Ben, and May. Also in the hall is a picture of May's sister, Mary Parker. Next to Mary in the picture is Richard Parker, Mary's husband.

18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxlqqzIps5
"Peter, what a nice surprise!" May states, hugging Peter.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmUwZ2WDoZ
"Yeah, it's good to see you, Aunt May," Peter replies. The two break off the hug, and May steps back slightly. Aunt May draws attention to Peter's suitcase.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPN2odV0ez
"What's with the suitcase?" She asks, pointing to it.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoalYfHaCMT
"Oh, this?" Peter raises his arm that's carrying the suitcase, "It's clothes, cause I'm staying here for a few days,"
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jR56WGJv3
"Why is that?" May asks, Peter puts his arm down and walks into the house.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgS18QLHAWU
"Well, I mean, for one I abandoned you on your birthday," Peter starts.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfgaOGdfWK
"Peter, that was weeks ago," May interrupts, crossing her arms.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmqSH4sQ48
"Yes, but," Peter continues, "I did mention that I owe you one. I knew that you were never gonna make me do something so I made the decision for you. I'll be staying here for a week and we can hang out with each other, how does that sound?"
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQtrG92zYq
"Well, that sounds fun," May answers, "but you really don't have to do all of this for me,"
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CPb2hr7R0
"I know, but I want to," Peter states, "is my old room still available?"
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAE9S15MBpX
"Of course, it is," May finishes, Peter walks up the stairs into the hallway. Peter opens the first door on his left. The door leads to a bedroom. Inside the bedroom is a mattress on top of a wooden frame, on the other side of the room is a shelf with three science trophies, and a desk parallel to a corner. Peter walks through the doorframe and into his old room. Peter puts the suitcase on top of the desk and lets go of it. Peter wanders around his old room, reminiscing about his life before getting bit by the spider. Peter eventually walks out of the room and back downstairs.

Later, Peter and Aunt May are sitting in the living room, they're sitting in places where they are facing each other with the coffee table in between them. On the coffee table is a chessboard. Peter is the black pieces, and May is the white pieces. The black king is in check by the white queen. A knight and pawn are prepared to be back up. All of the other pieces except the white king, who is hiding at the back of the board, are down.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2eqFlmprT
"Hmm," Peter is thinking about his move. He grabs the king and moves it in a direction away from the queen and knight, without seeing the pawn as a threat. Aunt May moves the pawn closer. Peter continues to move the king away from danger.

"How is that?" Peter continues to move the king in the direction he was going before.
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYQ3ggjtl5
"What I like to say," May moves the knight in front of the king, "is that you need to find the fine line between cowardice and aggressiveness," Peter takes the knight with the king, "and you'll be just fine,"
18Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0TlTcCUfy
"That sounds like good advice," Peter states, his phone starts to vibrate. He pulls out his phone, it's the police scanner app. Peter opens the app and he sees the text that says, 'Spider-Man, come here. Now.'
