00:24Someone once asked me what universe this was.
00:29A strange question that stuck with me all these years later.
00:33All I could say for sure was it was the only one I knew of.
00:37And that was as true then as it is now.
00:42Am I an extraordinary man? Yes.
00:46Am I an ordinary man? Yes.
00:49I'm both. I'm neither. But aren't we all?
00:55New York.
01:00I grew up in this city.
01:03I learned to fight in this city.
01:08And I fell in love in this city.
01:13A mistake I'll never make again.
01:18I used to be the spider.
01:21This city's hero.
01:23Always on guard.
01:24Always ready to swoop in and save the day.
01:43That ended when Ruby died.
01:58We were going to be married in the spring.
02:01I even bought a ring to make it official.
02:04A ring I never had the chance to give her.
02:16Ruby once told me that with great power comes great responsibility.
02:22Well, she was the greatest responsibility I ever had.
02:26And I failed her.
02:30The spider failed her.
02:35After that, I didn't want the power or the responsibility.
02:42So I went back to being just an ordinary man.
02:47That was five years ago.
03:04The colors fading from the photograph.
03:07I could tell the story.
03:09But still you wouldn't know the hell.
03:11This love was brought to life from shards of glass.
03:15When you kiss me, there's a shifting in the sepia tone.
03:19Can't escape the madness, baby.
03:21Magnetism.
03:22Run away, but something pulls me back into it.
03:26Lately, I've been staring at a broken mirror.
03:29Needing someone to come out.
03:32Hey, lover.
03:35I need someone to save me now.
03:38For my heart of pain, that I suffer.
03:43And that anyone that weighs me down.
03:46I know.
03:48The world ain't sweet.
03:49It's been a talk to taste.
03:52But you can be my saving grace.
03:56La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
04:03Na, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
04:18To be continued...
04:39What do you think?
04:45I think you got a bingo.
04:47Say, you're kind of handsome.
04:49Now I'm questioning your eyesight.
04:52Funny you do.
04:53So you got a wife?
04:55No.
04:57Shame. I got a husband.
04:59Not that it's ever stopped me from having a good time.
05:01Know what I mean?
05:02You got a decent idea.
05:04When your husband gets the same idea,
05:06tell him to give me a call.
05:08I'm okay.
05:13Excuse me, sir!
05:15Sir!
05:16I got your head.
05:20You keep following me,
05:21it won't end the way you want it to.
05:24It never does.
05:27Addison!
05:53I'm as liable to shoot you as I am to give chase.
05:59Damn it!
06:19Sir, sir, you shouldn't, you really shouldn't...
06:22Which way?
06:23Which way?
06:49I don't know.
07:01Come on, let's go. It's getting late and it smells like shit back here.
07:05I tried to warn you.
07:08What?
07:10Whoa.
07:18Now you're gonna burn.
07:27They're just gonna burn.
07:36Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God.
08:02Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God.
08:28I need a drink, you?
08:30Sure, nothing too fancy, all I got is three bucks.
08:34Come on, Donegal, I know a joint.
08:37Might even have a girl for you.
08:39If you like train wrecks.
08:41Oh, I must, because I keep marrying them.
08:50Good morning.
08:52It was.
08:53Now it's a mediocre afternoon headed towards a lousy evening.
08:57Coffee?
08:58Got anything a little harder?
09:00That's what I keep asking my husband.
09:02You can just pour it right in.
09:03That's just it, you really can't.
09:05Any calls?
09:06Well, to receive calls, you gotta pay my bell.
09:09Till then, that's just a paperweight.
09:11How'd it go with Addison?
09:14Oh, wow.
09:15That well, huh?
09:17Addison's dead.
09:19You?
09:19No, some other guy.
09:22This goddamn city.
09:24You open?
09:25No.
09:26Yes.
09:27I tried calling, but it didn't seem to go through.
09:29Mr. O'Reilly believes that business is better connected face-to-face.
09:32Wouldn't you agree, Mr....
09:34Carmody.
09:35Right this way, Mr. Carmody.
09:38It's about my wife.
09:50You a rich man, Mr. Carmody?
09:53No.
09:55Not particularly.
09:56Possessed of a keen wit, then.
09:59Huh?
10:02Look, I heard my wife on the phone this afternoon.
10:05She's gonna meet the so-and-so at 8 o'clock tonight.
10:08I haven't got the address.
10:09Look, look, look.
10:10I do love a client who comes prepared.
10:13So you'll do it.
10:14You'll take the case.
10:15Okay, Carmody.
10:16My rate's $10 a day, plus...
10:17But you'll get pictures, right?
10:19Because without pictures, it's basically just a he-said-she-said situation.
10:23I'm sure your suspicions are unfounded, Mr. Carmody,
10:26but if it comes to it, don't you fret.
10:28Benson is a photographer.
10:29Never miss a shot.
10:33$10 a day.
10:34Plus expenses.
10:35Jan will get your info in a small retainer.
10:38Come back day after tomorrow,
10:39and I'll give you what you want.
10:44Come on, Mr. Carmody.
10:46Let's get that info in the retainer, huh?
10:52Explosion!
10:52Extended oil!
10:54Read all about it!
10:55Explosion!
10:57Extended oil!
10:59Explosion!
11:00Air!
11:00Extended oil!
11:17Sorry I'm late.
11:18Let's tell you some story.
11:20Some other mobster is finally making a move on Silvermane.
11:25Burned down his mansion a couple of nights ago,
11:27killed six of his men,
11:28and somehow the old bastard escaped.
11:31I think Finn Byrne likes being called Silvermane.
11:33Thinks it speaks to, I don't know,
11:35gravitas and longevity.
11:38I would get that rich.
11:39You call me anything you want.
11:40That's a used pickle.
11:43So what you're hiding over there,
11:44another cheating spouse?
11:48I thought you said you weren't going to take those anymore.
11:50I haven't paid Jan in months.
11:51Beggars can't be choosers.
11:52Says the man who has chosen
11:54to be a beggar, for Christ's sakes, man.
11:56Probably not today, okay?
11:57Not again.
12:00Have you seen it out there?
12:01The city's a mess.
12:03Ever since the spider disappeared,
12:06Silvermane's got the city by the throat.
12:08Crime is out of control,
12:09and the police are completely in his pocket.
12:12Now the people,
12:13the people could use a hero.
12:19Well,
12:21I hope they find someone.
12:22You used to be.
12:24I know who I used to be.
12:28And I know who I am now.
12:31There's always going to be another Silvermane, Robbie.
12:34There's no point in fighting it.
12:36I can't help but wonder what Ruby would think
12:39if she heard you talking like that.
12:53Ruby's been dead a long time.
12:57I don't care what you think anymore.
13:06Hey, Frankie, you're out early today.
13:08Hey, Riley, how you doing?
13:13You know, I've been practicing my pocket tricks.
13:16Oh, yeah?
13:17How's that going?
13:19You can tell me.
13:25James, huh?
13:26What would you know?
13:27Fox, I was behind these years.
13:29March like that,
13:29maybe think about going to school.
13:31Who needs it?
13:32April's B for sake.
13:33Don't do math with letters, kid.
13:36Donegal, Riley.
13:37Listen, I think we should talk about last night.
13:40So what's this proposition you got for me?
13:43You left a man dead last night.
13:45Feels like that could be trouble coming down the tracks
13:47or an opportunity worth pursuing.
13:49Either way, I think we should know more about who hired us
13:52and why they wanted him so bad.
13:57So you got a plan.
13:59Kind of.
14:00Can you be sober by 9 a.m. tomorrow?
14:02Oh, hi, handsome.
14:04Long time to see.
14:07By the morning?
14:07Well, then, sure.
14:11Get your evening edition.
14:13Silvermane survives in skivvies.
14:16Thank you, sir.
14:17Hot off the presses.
14:19Silvermane survives in skivvies.
14:22Ever since the spider disappeared,
14:24Silvermane has had a chokehold on this city,
14:27murdering anyone that gets in his way.
14:29But one brave soul tried to free us
14:32from the mobster's reign of terror,
14:34setting fire to Silvermane's mansion
14:36while he was asleep upstairs.
14:38But he failed to kill the old bastard.
14:40So brace yourself for a bloody rampage
14:43from Silvermane and his ghouls.
14:45If only the spider were here to save us from the madness.
14:49Damn, Robbie.
14:51Give it a rest, would you?
14:53Go turn around.
14:58Come on.
14:59Come on.
15:00Come on.
15:00Come on.
15:02Come on.
15:06Go find your money.
15:06Go.
15:07Go find out
15:07Go find out.
15:13Go on.
15:14Yeah.
15:14Look, word
15:14Go find out.
15:33Evening, sir. How can I help you?
15:35I got a delivery for Boris Karloff.
15:38I'm sorry, but Karloff don't live here.
15:40Sure he does.
15:41He might be listed under his stage name, uh, Stein.
15:45Frank N. Stein.
15:51All right, don't bother. I'll see myself now.
16:15Don't bother.
16:26Don't bother.
16:32Get him.
16:33Oh!
17:14Get off of me!
17:16Come here!
17:24What the hell?
17:43Come here, Carly.
17:44We're late.
17:46Go. Go.
17:51Morning, Winston. Care for a cup of coffee or maybe some tea?
17:54Or do you just want to order both and see which one comes first?
17:57Save your breath, Riley.
17:59You told me you know where Addison is, so take your money and talk.
18:03Actually, the price has gone up.
18:05Excuse me?
18:07The other PI you hired told me you offered him 50, so I'm not telling you for a penny less
18:11than 200.
18:13Cute.
18:14But give me one good reason I shouldn't plug you.
18:18How about 38 reasons?
18:20It's actually a 32, but I doubt your organs will know the difference.
18:25Now, a guy like you in a suit like that, you didn't cook this up on your own.
18:30So, why don't you go back to whoever it is that sent you and find me 200 dollars.
18:35And then I'll tell you where Addison is.
18:37And I'll keep the 30 as a tip.
18:40Janet will keep the 30 as a tip.
18:43Cute.
18:45Real cute.
18:46Maybe I can't even do anything.
18:46I can do anything.
18:47He's keeping me.
18:48He's keeping me.
18:58I can't do anything.
19:01Yes, I can.
19:02Stop it.
19:05I can't do anything.
19:07Let me get you.
19:28I don't know.
19:38I don't know.
19:55Funny.
19:56Guy burns down my house.
19:58Tries to kill me.
20:00Makes me feel young again.
20:03Did Riley tell you where Addison is?
20:06A shakedown.
20:07He won't tell me where Addison is unless he gets more cash.
20:11Pay him whatever he wants.
20:13The boys are convinced Addison's got some kind of powers.
20:21If he does, I want to talk to him.
20:23Do whatever it takes.
20:26Find Addison.
20:33Hot damn! Can you believe our luck?
20:37Sadly, yes.
20:38Stepping into a steaming pile of dog shit is kind of my specialty.
20:42Are you daft?
20:42Burns the deepest pockets in New York.
20:44We're the only ones who know Addison's dead.
20:46We could ask for a thousand, though.
20:47Shake down, Silvermane.
20:49It's an idea.
20:50Thing is, I've got this crazy preference for being alive.
20:52You do what you want.
20:54I'm leaving this one alone.
20:55You're a coward, Riley.
20:56Fortune favors the bold.
20:58Look how poor I am.
21:05I'm in here.
21:09How'd that go?
21:10Dead end.
21:12How about this?
21:13Uh, interesting.
21:15You got some great shots.
21:18I couldn't resist.
21:20I do have one question, though.
21:22Am I crazy, or is that the goddamn mayor of New York?
21:28I believe in you, the hard-working man trying to earn a decent living.
21:34I believe in you, the dedicated woman.
21:37Our city has hit hard times.
21:40We've lost our heroes.
21:42It feels like no one is coming to help us.
21:45But I believe we can be our own heroes.
21:47You sure she didn't meet up with anybody?
21:50Like I said, your wife was alone the entire night.
21:54But what about 8 p.m.?
21:56The Red Cliff, what was that all about?
21:58Come on, Carmody, smile.
21:59This is great news.
22:00I know, I know.
22:01I get it.
22:03Marriage can be a terrifying endeavor.
22:05Opening yourself up to another person like that.
22:07Making yourself vulnerable.
22:08I don't even feel good about taking your money.
22:11Really?
22:11Yeah.
22:12Go home, Carmody.
22:13You have a beautiful and loyal wife.
22:16You know how loyal she is.
22:19You're a very lucky man.
22:21Now go home.
22:25We needed that money.
22:26I don't know if you're aware, but there's a depression going on.
22:30I'm aware, but whatever that was, I want nothing to do with it.
22:33Who do you think he was?
22:34Who knows?
22:35Someone trying to smear the mayor.
22:36And that woman.
22:37If she's not Mrs. Carmody, then who the hell is she?
22:39The only thing I can say with any certainty is she isn't married to that syphilitic walrus.
22:51Another headache, huh?
22:53That six cents thing?
22:55You should listen to it.
22:57As long as I've known you.
22:58It's never steered you wrong.
22:59I'd love to.
22:59Trouble is I'm not currently sure what it's trying to tell me.
23:02Hang on.
23:04Oh, I can hear it.
23:06It's saying pay your secretary, except you can't because you just gave away the only money we made all month.
23:13You're at the top of my list.
23:14Yeah, you better do something about it soon.
23:16I just interviewed for a sales position at Gimbel's.
23:20Blame my husband.
23:21He has this annoying habit of demanding food on a daily basis.
23:27What about selling the photographs to the woman?
23:30You want to steer clear of the mayor?
23:32That's fine.
23:33But maybe there's still some cash to be had.
23:37Blackmail, huh?
23:39It's not a terrible idea.
23:41It's not a good idea, but it's not a terrible idea.
23:44Yeah, I shook you not.
23:46She had me covered in whipped cream all the way up to here.
23:49I would love you to do anything to get the story.
23:52Jesus, you look like shit.
23:54More than usual is what I'm saying.
23:55Nice to see you too.
23:57What's so important that I couldn't wait until I was back downtown?
23:59Any chance you know who this is?
24:03You must be joking.
24:04Oh, that's cat hearty.
24:06Back in the day, you wouldn't have had to ask.
24:10Five minutes.
24:12Sure, three.
24:15What are you looking for, anyway?
24:17Uh, some poor sap got knocked off a few nights ago.
24:20Friend gave me a tip something's off with the body.
24:23Might be a story in it.
24:26Say, uh, you might want to look away?
24:29Any idea where I can find this cat hearty lady?
24:32Oh, yeah.
24:34Now, she is the star attraction over at the alcove.
24:39Huh.
24:41That is weird.
24:43Say, does this look like a guy who died in a fire to you?
24:47No, but he sure as hell did.
24:49I was there.
24:52And?
24:53They ID him yet?
24:56James Addison.
24:57Shit.
24:58So if they know, the cops will know.
25:00And then Silverman will know that Donegal was trying to rip him off.
25:03Do me a favor.
25:04Hold off on printing that.
25:05I want to warn a friend before he gets himself killed.
25:10What?
25:10It's just a migraine.
25:18What's going on, Ben?
25:20Does this guy have superpowers?
25:25Is he like you?
25:28Forget about it, Robbie.
25:30He's dead.
25:34Did Uncle say when he'd be back?
25:35He didn't say shit.
25:37That's what I told the other fellas, and that's what I'm telling you.
25:39If he comes in, tell him to meet Ben Reilly at the alcove, 9pm.
25:43Tell him it's important.
26:09Old-fashioned.
26:28Ladies and gentlemen, Kat Hardy.
26:39Stars shining bright above you
26:48Night breezes seem to whisper, I love you
26:57Birds singing in the sycamore trees
27:06Dream a little dream
27:08Dream a little dream
27:10Of me
27:16Say nighty night and kiss me
27:22Just hold me tight and tell me you'll miss me
27:28While I'm alone
27:30While I'm alone and blue as can be
27:33Dream a little dream
27:35Of me
27:39Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
27:44Sweet dreams I'll leave all worries behind you
27:50But in your dreams
27:52But in your dreams, whatever they be
27:55Dream a little dream
27:56Of me
28:01We're the past tense and we're laughing
28:03It's the past tense of the daydream
28:05We'll go dancing under lights dim
28:08And it's past just when we say things
28:10From the dead of night till the morning dew
28:12From the black and white to the colorful
28:15If I'm not them I'll fail
28:17Dreaming in a bone make a beautiful
28:19With it
28:21Splitting in
28:23The usual
28:28But this
28:29Day I'll use this
28:34Delusion
28:35Oh
28:36Dream of me
28:38Dream of me
28:40Till I'm everything you will see
28:45Dream of me
28:47Dream of me
28:50Till it's reality
28:52Don't dream too big
28:55Just dream a little dream of me
28:59I wonder to dream a little dream of me
29:03Just a little tiny dream
29:06A little dream
29:09Of me
29:10Of me
29:12Of me
29:12Of me
29:12Of me
29:13Of me
29:14Of me
29:15Of me
29:16Of me
29:16Of me
29:17Of me
29:19Of me
29:19Of me
29:19Of me
29:41Damn it, Donnacle. Where the hell are you at?
29:45Wake him up.
29:51That ain't gonna be so easy.
29:55He's dead.
29:58Told you I'd kill her, right?
30:13I'm sorry, boss.
30:21Evening, friend. I'm not interested in revenge or retribution, so I'm going to make this quick, okay?
30:32Now and now, there's nothing to cry about.
30:35I don't. I'd just like to hear where Addison is.
30:43Do you know? Do you know?
30:49I shot him dead. He had some kind of crazy power as he burst into flames.
30:57And what about the name of the man who hired Addison to kill me?
31:00I'm firm.
31:04I don't know.
31:06Fair enough.
31:11It's all over.
31:13It's done.
31:32Go to the morgue.
31:33Make sure Addison is really dead.
31:37Bring me the other private dick.
31:39Riley, you don't know any more than this guy.
31:41He's got nothing to worry about, Dan, does he?
31:56Do you mind?
31:58Please.
32:01I loved your performance.
32:03Thanks, doll.
32:05Is there somewhere we can talk?
32:07Here, see, it's me.
32:08It's business.
32:10I wasn't aware we had any, Mr.
32:12Riley.
32:13Riley, it concerned your trip to the Redcliffe last night.
32:17Flint?
32:19I'm trying to help you.
32:21Mr. Riley, I'd like you to meet my friend Flint Marco.
32:24He's...
32:24A gorilla.
32:25Do you mind?
32:27Slowly.
32:29The ape speaks.
32:30Incredible.
32:31I thought you might find that useful.
32:34Everything okay, Miss Hardy?
32:36Yes.
32:36Mr. Riley's a very nice man, but he was just about to leave.
32:40Who told you that?
32:40That you were leaving?
32:41That I'm nice.
32:42Just a hunch.
32:44Maybe you can confirm it by leaving without messing up Flynn's tie.
32:47He really struggles with the double Windsor, and I just painted my nails.
32:50Sharpen him, too.
32:52And don't trouble yourself, Flynn.
32:54I'm happy to make my exit without either of your fists busting my eye sockets.
32:59Take another look at that, and perhaps tomorrow we can discuss the price of the negatives over lunch.
33:03I might even pay, seeing as I'm such a nice guy.
33:08I suppose you think you're pretty clever.
33:10Well, actually, most days I think I should just stick my head in the oven and get it over with.
33:14What's stopping you?
33:15Simple.
33:16I'm a coward.
33:32Fair some change for a hungry orphan boy?
33:35You got a tail, white suit?
33:37Sure do, mister.
33:38Thanks.
33:39Thanks.
33:40Thanks.
33:41Thanks.
33:42Thanks.
33:44Thanks.
33:45Thanks.
33:45Thanks.
33:46Thanks.
33:56Thanks.
34:42Some view up here.
34:44You should see the lights all the way from Jersey.
34:47I like those negatives, please.
34:49Cutting right to it, huh?
34:53You don't even want to catch your breath?
34:56Mister, despite what I do for a living,
34:58I really don't enjoy hurting people.
35:01Then don't.
35:02I know a terrific hamburger joint.
35:04Open all night. Let's sit. Talk it over.
35:08Well, you're not hungry. How about a drink?
35:11Last chance.
35:13Opium.
35:20Why be stubborn?
35:21One way or another, you're gonna give me those negatives.
35:25It doesn't have to be like this.
35:26You're right. You stop punching me.
35:31The negatives, I'll drop you.
35:36Well, the thing is, I'm not really scared of heights.
35:44You try now.
35:51No.
35:52No, no, no, no.
36:01No.
36:02Oh!
36:19Get in.
36:34What?
36:35Just, just...
36:36Ugh!
36:44What?
36:50Ugh!
36:52Ugh!
36:55Ugh!
36:57Ugh!
36:57Ugh!
36:58Ugh!
37:20Ugh!
37:22Ugh!
37:23Ugh!
37:27Ugh...?
37:28Ugh...
37:28Ugh!
37:40Fire!
38:15Oh, my God.
38:31Don't hurt him.
38:34Where am I?
38:37Are you okay?
38:39What happened?
38:42What the hell is this?
38:44Just leave us alone, please.
38:50You're the negatives on the house.
39:06I can't believe you gave her the negatives.
39:09And for free.
39:10Don't you think you're overreacting?
39:12No, Ben.
39:13This is what reacting looks like.
39:15It's the physical response to a stimulus.
39:17You just haven't felt it in half a decade.
39:19Actually, my lamp, my aunt gave it to me.
39:22You're afraid of the mob?
39:23Sure.
39:23Don't want to piss off the mayor?
39:24Fine.
39:25But a lounge singer?
39:27I told you there were extenuating circumstances.
39:30I have given you so much room.
39:32Airplanes have less runway.
39:33But at a certain point,
39:34when someone tells you what they are,
39:36you have to listen.
39:37And what is he?
39:41Retired.
39:43Cat Hardy.
39:46Meet my secretary, Janet Ruiz.
39:48Ex-secretary.
39:48I just quit.
39:50Shame.
39:51I came here to offer him a job.
39:55My friend Flint,
39:56the one you met last night,
39:58he's disappeared.
40:02$50 retainer up front,
40:03and it's $10 a day plus expenses.
40:20My friend Flint,
40:22the one you met last night,
40:25he's disappeared.
40:27He turned into Sam, right?
40:29It just seems like kind of like a big deal.
40:32You're an investigator.
40:35Investigate.
40:40She is hiding something.
40:42You know, sometimes I think you forget I do this for a living.
40:47Come on.
40:48What the hell is going on?
40:49I can't get into it right now.
40:52Suddenly you're not the only guy in New York with powers,
40:54and you can't get into it right now.
40:56The spider appears to have forgotten who runs this town.
41:00We've got a fight coming.
41:01I want you to help me.
41:04We have an army nobody can stop.
41:07It's the best damn show in town.
41:16What about the spider?
41:17The spider?
41:18Yeah, right.
41:20Maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe the spider is a guy like anyone else.
41:25You ever think about that?
41:26The spider is out of control.
41:32The city needs order.
41:34You have a choice.
41:35You just have to make it.
41:44Ha, cha, cha, cha!
41:47Did you see that?
41:49I kicked him into kingdom.
41:58This is a part of me I wish never existed.
42:04Because with no power comes no responsibility.
42:07Going.
42:25Was it?
42:26I did my own.
42:27I said, I'm not going to die.
42:30I thought that you were doing there.
42:31I'd, I'll have to go for now because...
