[narrator] Spider-Man.

Hot pretzels! Peanuts! Hot pretzels!

Get your frozen bananas here!

Fresh roses! Carnations! Pretty flowers!

Out of the way!

Hot pretzels... Gee!

Coming through!

My flowers!

[kids laughing]

Stop!

Hey, you!

[laughing]

Oh, you... You punks!

[kids] Hey!

Hi, it's me,
your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man

and roller derby referee.

We was just having fun.

You know what I think is fun?

Catching flies? [Chuckles]

No, taking a spin through the park.

Allow me.

Can I give you a hand?

Hey, what?

Caught you in the act, Spider-Man.

But I didn't...

Foolish humans!

These are the real troublemakers,

already disposed of by Spider-Man.

Now be gone!

All right, you two, come on along.

Why, Medusa, I haven't seen you in years.

How are things at the great refuge?

All is well in my far off homeland.

I am, um, just visiting.

Great. Can I show you around?

No. I mean, I must go alone.

Another time, perhaps.

Yeah, well, uh, so long.

I should have known a super doll like that

wouldn't have time for me.

Welcome, Medusa.
Welcome to the home of The Wizard,

master of gravity.

You said you must speak with me,
Wizard. Speak.

I offer you the chance to join me

as you did once before, and become

the queen of crime.

That was long ago.

I have given up my lawless ways.

I can offer you riches, power...

- No.
- Pretty baubles...

- Like this.
- I warn you, Wizard... Ahhh!

What did you do? What is this necklace?

[laughs] Necklace?

No, Medusa, it is a collar,

of my own design, a mind collar.

Medusa wears no collar!

Stop! Don't move a muscle,
or this will be you.

No one can remove the collar but me.

Try it.

Take that one off. Try.

Come, Medusa.

I have need of you
for a very special crime.

Here is where we keep
the rare metal element, niobium.

I'll show you our sensor alarm system.

- The sensors pick up any bodily heat.
- [alarm sounding]

[alarm stopping]

And even the slightest weight is detected.

[alarm sounding]

[alarm stops]

Around this corner
is our solar converter wall.

Now we strike.

My anti-gravity disk will keep the glass
from falling when I cut it.

Medusa, only your hair will not set off
the sensors.

Get me the niobium.

Go on.

Our new solar converter wall.

It weighs nearly a ton.

More! I need more niobium

to complete my anti-gravity weapon.

- They are... too heavy.
- [alarm sounding]

- The alarm!
- Please, everyone.

Remain calm. Our guards will handle this.

You clumsy fool! Get down there
and stop the guards.

I'll get the niobium.

The lady with the mask! [Straining]

Bad boy, Wizzie!

Niobium is a no-no.

Spider-Man?

- Medusa, not you.
- You lost your grip, insect.

Now you'll lose your life.

Anti-gravity repeller beams.

Wizard, let's go!

[rumbling]

[Medusa] He'll be crushed.

Medusa! Get in the air car!

Medusa! [Groans]

Oh, too heavy.

- I can't hold it.
- You can.

Push, Spider-Man!

Phew! I guess that's what they mean
by a hair-raising escape.

- Spider-Man, I...
- There she is.

Get her!

Medusa, wait!

My hair.

You're a hard lady to catch.

You have not caught me yet!

Hey, take it easy!
I didn't mean it like that!

Oh! Nor did I.

What have I done?

Spider-Man! Where are you?

Hair today, gone tomorrow.

Forgive me, please.

Hey, I'm your friend.

Whatever trouble you're in. I can help.

No one can help me.

Aw, come on, Red.

Hey,
maybe an ice cream cone will cheer you up.

Oh, I forgot. I have no pockets.

After what you did for us,
we wouldn't charge you a penny.

Here, some pretty flowers.

A bouquet for milady.

They're lovely. Thank you.

Please, have some ice cream.

Uh, it's kind of hard
to eat through a mask.

Now we cannot be seen.

Remove your mask.

I... I can't do that.

So, you do not trust me.

It's not that, exactly.

But why were you with The Wizard?

Why?

I must go.

Good-bye, Spider-Man.

Too bad.

You made such a nice couple.

We did? Yeah.

You should never let a good woman
get away.

You're right!

One more component

and my ultimate anti-gravity weapon
will be complete.

Hey, Red!

- The intruder alarm.
- [alarm sounding]

Spider-Man.

I followed your trail.

See?

Please do not follow me any further.

I'm offering my help, Medusa.

If I am able,
I will meet you in one hour there,

at that water tower.

I'll be waiting.

Very interesting.

I'll be able to use this to my advantage.

I have done what you've asked.

Remove the collar.

There is one more thing I need,

an electronic component.

No! I will...

Ahhh! [Moaning]

You will steal the component
and you will get Spider-Man to help you.

Spider-Man? No, I won't.

You won't what?

No, stop! Don't!

If I do this, will you remove the collar?

Why of course, Medusa.

I give another of my worthless promises.

Ha.

Where'd you get that?

Uh, I stole it from The Wizard.

There is a way to defeat him,
if you will help me.

We need a top secret electronic component
kept at an army base.

Great! I'm all yours.

Would you still like me if I were ugly.

Ugly? You?

You could never be ugly to me.

Let's go!

We have to go in there?

Couldn't we just ask them
to loan it to us?

To the likes of us?

I think we're swell.

You're sure this electronic doo-dad

will help us defeat The Wizard?

Yes. I will provide a diversion
while you get it.

See ya!

Medusa, you're wanted for robbery.
Give yourself up.

Why?

Quick, the tear gas!

Uh-oh, better hurry.

[straining]

Standby to fire tear gas.

Fire!

[coughing]

At last.

- Did you get it?
- Hey, didn't you know I would?

Now, how do we use it to get The Wizard?

We'll see who gets who, Spider-Man.

Slow down, Medusa!

I don't have control anymore.

We're gonna hit that building!

Well done, Medusa.

Bring me the component, my lovely ally.

Lovely ally?

Red, he sure isn't talking to me.

Do not fight us, Spider-Man.

Medusa, no!

Is the wise-cracking
Spider-Man speechless?

I trusted you, Medusa.

I trusted you!

Go on, tell him what a fool he is.

Yes, a fool.

A stupid trusting fool!

Get out of here! Get out!

[yelling]

- [gasps]
- Don't.

You're in for a hot time, Spider-Man.

I'll climb out of here in a jiffy...

Ow! The walls are sizzling.

Too hot to touch, and getting hotter.

Medusa and I bid you farewell.

Wizard,
you now have everything you wanted.

Remove the collar.

Why? So you can turn on me
and rescue Spider-Man?

Perhaps I will never remove it.

Ahhh!

No one can defeat The Wizard, Medusa.
Remember that.

My greatest anti-gravity weapon
is complete.

Strike one.

Strike two.

Has to be a way out, has to be.

It is now time
to test my anti-gravity weapon.

[woman screaming]

Magnificent.

Magnificent.

Can't last... much longer.

Wait, the floor.

It's not hot.

I hope this is what I hope this is.

[straining]

Hey! It's Old Faithful!

Just what I needed. A real steam bath.

Time to settle up with The Wizard

and Medusa.

This is more fun than getting rid
of Spider-Man.

Getting rid of Spider-Man?

Stop, or I will destroy you!

Never! This time Medusa fights to the end.

You force me to... What's that?

Mind if I crash this party?

You are alive!

Sorry to disappoint you.

My repeller ray will take care of you.

You have to hit me first.

And you can't hit what you can't see.

[muffled grunting]

Wait! Listen to me!

Not a chance. Once a chump's enough.

My gloves are stronger than your webbing.

Hold still, you blasted jumping jack!

[Spider-Man] OK.

How's this?

One twist of this disk will double
my flying speed.

Must... help... Spider-Man.

One more burst
from my repeller ray will finish the job.

Oh!

[straining]

You... You saved me?

I never wanted to hurt you, but...

How touching,
but you forget whose sl*ve you are.

Medusa is not a... [gasps and groans]

So that's it.

Hey, Wizzie! Don't forget about me.

No. Let me.

- It's my turn.
- You had your turn.

- Now!
- No!

Let's make a wish!

No!

I'll remove his anti-gravity disk.

Well, we make a great team

when we work together.

I am sorry.
I should have told you everything.

But only The Wizard can remove the collar.

Look, I'm not just a nut in long johns.

I go to college and everything.

I'll reverse the polarity. It should work.

- Will you trust me?
- I trust you.

You did it!

I am free!

[chuckles] Never turn your back
on The Wizard.

You forget that I can fly... [screaming]

Not without this!

Oh, well.

Do you have to go?

I must return
to my own people where I belong.

But you could come with me.

This is where I belong.

- Then, farewell.
- I trust you now.

I do not care what you look like
under your mask.

We will meet again.

Why, Peter.
Look at the way you're mooning.

If I didn't know better,
I'd say you were in love.

Love?

Hey, who would I be in love with?
