Summary
An explosion rings through the air of New York City. Citizens stare up in horror as an entire level of Oscorp Tower is set ablaze. On the inside of the building, Norman Osborn frantically runs toward the holding cell of Project Dracula, only to find that his test subject, Morbius, has vanished.

"No!" Norman cries as he is engulfed in the flames. When he awakes, he finds himself strapped to a chair, alone in a dark room. He calls into the darkness. No answer.

The lights flicker on. Morbius steps into Norman's view, now a hulking, rotting, frightening monster. Norman gasps, and (with little luck) attempts to break free of the rope binding him to the chair. Morbius approaches him, the creature's eyes more red than ever.

"Look at what you've done to me, Osborn!" the vampire yells. "You were out for a long time, though, giving me plenty of time to prepare your final moments."

"Let me go!"

"No! You tortured me... subjected me to weeks of pain. You turned me into a monster!"

Tears form in Norman's eyes. "I was trying to make you a powerful weapon of war."

Morbius grins. "I will go to war... with your company, Now, if they want you to stay alive, they'll need to pay me 10 billion dollars!"

Meanwhile, at Midtown High School, Peter and his friends, for the first time, test-fly Peter's drone, Tesla. The machine flies well, causing Peter to overflow with joy.

"This might actually be the greatest day of my life!" he exclaims. "We built this thing from scratch, with the budget of a pizza sub melt!"

"I'm proud of you, Peter." MJ says. She leans in to whisper. "But I bet I can make you happier."
