First Aired: February 18th, 2018

Synopsis: Peter tries talking to Harry and resolving things between them but Harry is still annoyed. Peter has to leave to investigate some loud noise as Spider-Man, and he finds Doctor Octopus capturing Max Modell, alongside the Sinister Five. They're successful in getting away with Max despite Spidey's best efforts. Harry, meanwhile, is experimenting to try and undo the damage dealt to Norman by Spider-Man's blood, and tests his cure on himself to see whether it will bond to his DNA. Spider-Man continues chasing after Doctor Octopus, but is waylaid by Vulture, Steel Spider, and Rhino. He defeats all of them, and although he loses Doctor Octopus in the process, he guesses that Ock is at his old base that he used when they briefly were a team. Doctor Octopus is in there, but when Spider-Man tells him to let Max go he complies suspiciously easily and then reveals that Max was just a way to draw Spider-Man's attention and let the Sinister Five wear him down. He then puts a mind control disc on Spider-Man, making his team the Sinister Six.

Spider monsters then attack them, but they're able to escape. The heroes load up the cure created by Anya and start distributing it, but quickly realise that they're doing so too slowly. Harry thinks that he can create a dispersal unit to distribute it as a gas, but they'll need to go to Osborn Academy for the equipment.

First Aired: February 11th, 2018

Synopsis: People all over Manhattan are turning into giant spiders. Peter heads home to check on May, who soon turns into a spider, before running off in one direction alongside her mutated neighbours. Elsewhere, Anya is trying to cure Gwen, who manages to escape her containment and damage lab equipment in the process. Anya finds herself starting to transform and risks trying one of her cures on herself. Peter and Harry, meanwhile, notice that the spiders are heading to Oscorp, presumably because the mutated Norman Osborn is their leader and controlling them. Anya shows up, still with spider powers but not mutated, and says that she has a small amount of the cure left. Harry wants to use it on Norman, thinking that he'll be able to control the spiders even after he's transformed, and Peter and Anya reluctantly agree that it's the best plan they've got. The heroes all manage to get inside Oscorp, and after the mutated Norman runs away from them, they're able to get after him and inject him with the cure.
