- Flash Thompson: Okay, Parker, here's the deal. You need to make sure I don't say nothing to make Sha Shan think I'm stupid.
- Peter Parker: Uh, dude? Ship sailed.
- Flash Thompson: Shut up! She likes smartness... that and, like, integrity and stuff. So if I say something dumb, you kick me or something.
- Peter Parker: [Gleefully] For you, pal, anything.
- Silvermane: [after Ock attacks him] Et tu, Octopus?
- Doctor Octopus: What can I say? An opportunity is an opportunity, Silvermane.
- Spider-Man: [swinging in] Ah, so that's Silvermane. Wow, a three-way battle to declare New York's biggest jerk. Where do I start?
- Doctor Octopus: Perhaps with your demise, arachnid!
- Silvermane: So this is the Spider-Man that's giving Tombstone and Octopus so much trouble. As yet, I'm unimpressed.
- Spider-Man: You haven't seen me juggle bowling balls while drinking a glass of water.
- Doctor Octopus: [restraining Spider-Man] You will pay the price for constant interference, arachnid!
- Spider-Man: Yeah, I'm kinda broke. How about you pay tonight and I'll owe you one?
