Act 3, Scene 26

Back on the bridge. No time has passed since we last cut from here.

BROCK: (going from amazed to furious)Parker...Parker! I knew it was you!

SPIDERMAN: Pity no-one will ever believe you, Eddie.

BROCK: I'll make them believe me. I had everything...and you took it away from me, you-

In an instant Spiderman is upon him, webs flying. Eddie quickly finds himself with hands bound helplessly staring into Peter's face. As he watches the black surface of the symbiote creeps its way upward again. We see the effect in close-up for the first time and it's disturbing in the extreme - first his veins darken, giving him a horrific death's head appearance, before the rest of his skin blackens and the features of his face soften into the mask shape.

SPIDERMAN: What are you saying, Eddie? That if I let you go you'll just try to ruin my life, again? That you'll put everyone I love in danger for your own personal gain, again?

BROCK: No! No...I won't breathe a word...your secret is safe, I swear to God.

Spiderman picks him up and dangles him over the side of the bridge, exactly as the Goblin once did to Mary-Jane.

SPIDERMAN: Why don't I believe you?

BROCK: I swear to God! I swear to God! Oh God, please...somebody help me!
