00:00Why is Ned the only one who remembers Peter Parker?
00:02At the end of Spider-Man, No Way Home, after Doctor Strange casts the forgetting spell,
00:07everyone completely loses their memories related to Peter Parker.
00:09Everyone only remembers Spider-Man.
00:11Not even MJ, Peter's girlfriend, or Ned, his best friend, are spared.
00:15Even Doctor Strange himself, who casts the spell, is affected.
00:18MJ has already moved on, and even has a new partner.
00:21However, among all the people affected by the magic, Ned is a unique exception.
00:24The spell also erases Ned's conscious memories, but he cannot completely forget Peter.
00:28Not only does he have great admiration for Spider-Man,
00:31but he also deduces that behind the mask, there is an ordinary person whose existence was erased from reality.
00:36He even builds a tracker to find Spider-Man, which sets him apart from everyone else.
00:39The answer lies in his innate magical talent.
00:42In the third movie, Ned is able to manipulate the sling ring using only his mind,
00:46opening portals and pulling the other two Spider-Men into them.
00:48The continuous use of the ring causes magical energy to remain in his body,
00:52weakening the power of the forgetting spell.
00:54Near the end of the story, Peter and Ned meet again.
00:56When they perform the secret gesture shared only by best friends,
00:59Ned finally regains his memory of Peter Parker.
