Spider-Man: The New Animated Series Episode Thirteen: Mind Games, Part Two

Mind Games, Part Two

First Aired: September 12th, 2003

Synopsis: The Gaines twins discuss whether or not Spider-Man will be up to the task of killing Kraven the Hunter, and while they do Mary Jane slips out of her bonds and escapes...but it's all a psychic illusion, and she's still trapped. Spider-Man manages to reach Kraven, who is confused when Spider-Man says that they fought several hours ago. Spider-Man starts hanging Kraven with his webbing when he notices the construction site damaged by Pterodax nearby is undamaged. When Kraven confirms that they haven't fought for a while, Spider-Man delivers him to the police, who also confirm that the other foes Spider-Man fought recently are still missing or in jail. Since Mary Jane is missing and Peter vaguely recalls the warehouse where the Gaines twins were, he uses Indy to help him find it, discovering in the process that it's owned by one Frank Elson, the old man who spoke to him in the graveyard. Spider-Man heads for the warehouse, and the Gaines twins call him up and threaten Mary Jane unless Spider-Man goes and kills Kraven. He stalls for long enough to get into the warehouse, not knowing that Indy is also heading there to see why he was so keen on discovering where it was.

Synopsis: The psychic Gaines twins, a brother and sister, are being transported to a new prison. They somehow manage to get rid of the sedatives keeping them under and control a guard into shooting the driver and taking over their transport. Spider-Man shows up and they use their psychic powers on him, but he manages to resist it and sedates the two of them. Later, Spider-Man's looking over the city with Mary Jane, and after a discussion about what you should do and what you want to do, he heads off to stop a crime. Later, Peter has lunch with Indy and Harry, and Indy reveals that Pterodax and Silver Sable were sprung from prison by the Gaines twins before they were stopped. Pterodax have taken hostages on top of a construction site being run by Oscorp, but Spider-Man shows up and is able to defeat them, although Harry, watching from the ground, is injured in the process. Returning home as Peter, though, he finds Mary Jane and Indy there, who have found out that he's been seeing both of them, and neither of them are happy about it.
