Spider-Man went back into the chimney, knowing that Man-Wolf would be brought into the mansion by Morbius' associate. He decided that he would let Morbius extract the Godstone from John Jameson's neck. He would be normal again. And maybe it would cure Morbius, thus preventing him from causing any future harm upon citizens.
Morbius and Gargan exited the lab. Someone knocked really hard on the door. Morbius opened it, revealing a man in a suit that made him look like a rhino. He was carrying an unconscious Man-Wolf.
"Mac Gargan," Morbius began, "I would like to introduce you to Rhino."
Gargan was speechless. He trembled at the sight of the large thug.
"This thing scratched my face!" Rhino complained. "Am I going to turn into one of him, now?"
"I don't think so," Morbius said. "The power of the Godstone is not like an infectious virus. Let us all go back to the lab."
They all went into the lab. When the door closed, Spider-Man went up to it to listen again. Morbius made an incision in Man-Wolf's neck and extracted his blood.
"Now, Mr. Gargan, I would like to give you a gift."
"John Jameson?"
"No. Something else."
"Oh no. You're not gonna turn me into..."
"Not what you think, Gargan."
Mac Gargan tried making a run for the stairs.
"Hold him, Rhino!"
Rhino grabbed Gargan and held onto him.
"What are you gonna do to me?"
"Since you failed me, I am going to let you show me whether my next experiment will succeed or fail. I have studied the technology of Oscorp. I broke into their labs five years ago and learned of some interesting results. Now, I have a serum that will transform you, cursing you as I was cursed, but in a different way. I have added an ingredient from a certain insect."
Morbius pulled a serum out of a cabinet. It looked green. Out of a closet, he pulled out a green suit made of steel with a mask and a mechanical tail that had pincers at the tip. The sybernetic tail was seven feet long.
"What's that?" Gargan asked.
"A scorpion suit. I studied Doctor Octavius' technology and utilized his ideas to make this. Put him in this after I inject him."
Morbius injected the serum into Gargan's veins. Rhino took Gargan's trenchcoat off of him and forced him to wear the suit. Gargan looked woozy.
The lab door was locked; Spider-Man could not open it. He could not help Gargan.
"How do you feel, Scorpion?"
Scorpion looked paranoid; he looked around the lab and ran up the stairs ninety miles per hour, breaking down the door and crushing Spider-Man. Spider-Man saw him break through a window, racing to an unknown destination. Morbius walked up the stairs and saw Spider-Man.
"It appears that we have an unwelcome pest. Rhino, please knock him out and then you will be paid handsomely and free to rampage around the city all you want."
"This is the most interesting job I have been hired for," Rhino said before punching Spider-Man in the head, knocking him unconscious.
