Memorable quotes from episode 436:
Linkara: "We open with Peter running home to the infinite regression that is a suburban neighborhood. See, this house is purple, it's totally different!"
Peter Parker: *to Aunt May* "What did I miss?" *he discovers May is in the kitchen, stirring, and the TV isn't on* "Aunt May, I can't believe you don't have it on!"
Linkara (as Aunt May Parker): "Peter, for the 9th time, I don't care that you're wrestling show is still pushing Roman Reigns."
Peter: "They discover alien life, and you're not watching?!"
Aunt May Parker: *chuckles* "Oh Peter, aliens are bug-eyed monsters who say 'take me to your leader.'"
Linkara (as Aunt May): "I should know, I had sex with one when I worked at a resort for a summer, just to spite your Uncle Ben!" *nods then realizes* "Man, those days were weird."
------
Linkara: "Anyway, the news reports that the organic material has been shipped to Empire University for study by Dr. Curt Connors, and, of course, this means Peter has an in with his bud Eddie Brock."
Eddie Brock: *on the phone with Peter* "That's right bro, the ooze has landed!"
Linkara (as Eddie Brock): *pretending he's on the phone* "And once we discover the secret of it, we'll be Ninja Turtles too!"
Eddie: "And… uh, Dr. C's back in the game, he's been of lost since… you know, the Lizard thing."
Linkara (as Eddie): "But then he got a new GPS, and he's been fine since then."
------
Linkara: "Unfortunately for Peter, the other scientist working on the project, Dr. Martha (Connors, Curt's wife)—because every superhero has a Martha in their lives—has forbidden anyone else outside their team from approaching, especially not reporters or photographers. Peter decides to take advantage of being Spider-Man to get a look. Because using your powers for personal gain has never bit you in the ass, has it, Petey? However, he's a bit late to the party because the Black Cat is already sneaking in herself. With the teaser over with, that brings us to the theme song; which is, of course, friggin' awesome! Any theme song that highlights how fun it would be to actually be Spider-Man (you know, aside from all the baggage) is good already, but it's got a sweet guitar riff to it while simultaneously almost feeling like it's under-playing things a bit. It's almost mellow at how awesome it is." *cut to Linkara, wearing sunglasses, arms crossed, and looking off to the side, looking cool as he listens to the Spectacular Spider-Man theme* "Yeah. I'm cool. No biggie."
------
Linkara: "Black Cat is of course here to steal the ooze and… uh, maybe don't look so happy about the disgusting black sludge trying to reach out to you?"
Spider-Man: "East, cay lady, I don't want to fight."
Black Cat: "Name's Black Cat, and cats don't fight spiders."
Linkara: "Of course not, cats whack spiders with newspapers! Haven't you read a single Garfield strip, dude? The two, of course, get into a fight with a glass aquarium getting smashed and tripping the laser sensors. Man, you'd think businesses would just make those laser detection systems that can be seen through fog, pointed in multiple, instead of just the floor given how often this happens in fiction. Also, not sure what the deal is with fur on Black Cat's arms. It's a neat aesthetic, but how does that make her a better burglar and doesn't the increased amount of white take away from her being the "Black" Cat? Anyway, Black Cat's a playful sort, so she offers him a take on the job if they work together."
Black Cat: "A certain captain of industry offered an indecent amount of cash to steal that slime [at this point, the symbiote escape from its now open cage], something about unlimited scientific attention."
Linkara: "Dammit, Tony Stark! There are other solutions to hair loss that this!"
------
Linkara: "Anyway, naturally the Daily Bugle blames Spidey and the Black Cat as accomplices, which pisses off Eddie Brock something fierce, since clearly Peter was there and didn't call the cops. However, even more pissed of is Peter, who storms into J. Jonah Jameson's office and asks why the hell he lied about it."
Jameson: *yells* "THE BUGLE ONLY PRINTS FACTS! And whatever it takes to connect the facts together."
Linkara (as Jameson): "We call those "Alternative Facts!" ...No, no, not even I can say that seriously. And I once invested in a robot to capture Spider-Man with my face on it."
------
Linkara: "A plane flies out of control, the pilot trying to force it to crash in Central Park, but he's flying to low. Spidey manages to get in close enough to adjust the plane and rescue the pilot before it crashes, realizing that the new suit is enhancing his powers; more strength, longer reach of his webbing, and longer leaps."
Spider-Man: *to himself* "If I can use the ooze to help more people as Spider-Man, maybe it's ok that I sort of unintentionally stole the slime from the Connors lab."
Linkara: "I mean, if you think about it, black is more of a spider's color than red and blue. The suit also has another nifty power, easy quick changing. When he enters his home, Aunt May suddenly collapses."
Peter: "Aunt May, what's wrong?"
Linkara (as Aunt May): "Sorry, it's those de-aging pills I take for each new movie, they knock the wind out of you."
------
Linkara: "As the Chameleon starts robbing the boat, Captain Stacy (Gwen Stacy's dad, in case you didn't know), actually does recognize that it's not him due to his height. Not that it matters much anyway, since, of course, our hero shows up to confront the Chameleon. They fight, with Spidey, of course, defeating him."
Quentin Beck: *disguised as a waiter, with a cup of coffee for the real Spidey* "Demitasse, Spider-Man?" *drops cup, which turns into a smokescreen as thew cup breaks*
Linkara (as Spider-Man): "Oh no, it was decaf!"
-------
Linkara: "The Chameleon is captured; Jameson is forced to make a retraction."
Jameson: *whispers into his cell phone* "But on page 42… in 4-point font."
Linkara: "And Captain Stacy says Spidey is cleared, although they still don't know what happened to the stolen alien."
Spider-Man: *to Captain Stacy* "Actually, I sort of…"
The Symbiote: *to Peter's mind, speaking in his voice* "What are you doing? You tell the truth, and they'll take the suit away, and you need its power."
Linkara (as Spider-Man): "Mephisto, I told you not to call while I'm working!"
Captain George Stacy: "As long as you wear a mask, some folks will always wonder…"
Linkara (as Captain George Stacy): *thinking* "I wonder what masks taste like."
