Peter was quick to figure out a way to use the computer chip to hack into Tinkerer's computer. When he did however, all that happened was a computer code history popped onto the screen.

"Dammit!" he said furiously, "I'm picking up the keystroke and mouse command history and that's it." But he quickly calmed down and figured out another plan, "I'll just follow what he's doing." He looked and quickly translated the computer codes in his head and made it onto Google. He then followed the key and mouse commands as they popped up, searching for 'lunar gemstone'.

"Why is he looking at lunar gems?" said Peter, "He's a tinkerer not a jeweler." He scrolled down through and came across nothing that seemed to interest Mason, for he clicked on nothing. He then opened a program called 'Internet Declassifier', which revealed more hits. After this, Tinkerer finally clicked on something which said 'NASA uncovers mysterious gemstone on Moon.' Peter followed suit and found that their experiments on apes with it showed mutagenic properties when under the light of the full moon, causing the apes to turn into wolf-like beings, prompting the scientists to exterminate the test subjects. He read on and found that it was being kept in a secret MIB vault miles beneath the city. Peter immediately changed into Spider-Man swung out, knowing that Mysterio would be heading to the vault.

Sure enough, Spider-Man's waiting was not in vain, for Mysterio did show up to steal the gem. However, he was likewise prepared, ejecting a hypno-watch from his gauntlet and pointing it at Spider-Man. Suddenly the world seemed to change around Spider-Man until he was back on top of the George Washington Bridge, a green, muscular, flaming monster dropping Gwen from the bridge, with her hitting the water, which afterward started turning red. Then everything changed so he was seeing a young Harry turning into that creature, then he finally saw Venom eating him, then he suddenly woke up in an empty vault room, no sign of Mysterio or the gem. He was a bit disappointed that he couldn't stop him, but he was not entirely fazed.
