[EXT. OSCORP TOWER – NIGHT – CINEMATIC CUTSCENE]
(Rain lashes the side of the building. Red emergency lights pulse through shattered windows. Peter, ruised and bleeding, climbs the final ledge. Dr. Octavius stands at the edge, neural arms glowing with unstable energy.)
SPIDER-MAN
(voice strained) Otto… it doesn’t have to end like this.
DR. OCTAVIUS
(not turning)
You're wrong, Peter. It always had to.
(He turns, maskless, face full of rage and sorrow.)
DR. OCTAVIUS
I gave them everything. My mind. My body. My life.
And they discarded me like trash.
You, of all people, should understand.
SPIDER-MAN
I do. That’s why I’m still here. Trying to save you.
DR. OCTAVIUS
Then you're a fool.
