- Green Goblin: Why don't you just give up?
- Spider-Man: Because I know your secret. I know whose face is behind that mask.
- Green Goblin: We all wear masks, Spider-Man. But which one is real? The one that hides your face, or the one that is your face?
- Spider-Man: I know you're Norman Osborn!
- Green Goblin: Ha ha ha! Am I?
- Hammerhead: [Hammerhead wakes up in a warehouse to find himself tied chained to a chair after being knocked out by the Green Goblin] Ugh... Goblin. I know you're out there.
- Green Goblin: Out there, in here, everywhere! Soon, I will be the Big Man, and I can always use a right-hand Flat-top!
- Hammerhead: You think I'm afraid of a goofball dressed for Halloween? Don't respect what you don't fear, and there has only been one man that I have feared enough to respect.
- Green Goblin: The Big Man, alias L. Thompson Lincoln. You see, I've peeked behind *his* mask...
- Hammerhead: Lincoln *is* the mask! The *real* Big Man's Tombstone, 'cause that's all that's left after you cross him.
- Green Goblin: In that case, then a man in your position would surely have acquired...
- [extends tongue blade of glader towards Hammerhead's throat]
- Green Goblin: ... *life insurance*.
- Mary Jane Watson: [to Peter] Gotta say, Tiger, you fill out that costume nicely.
- Liz Allan: Very nicely. You can web me up anytime, Petey.
- [Peter blushes]
- Flash Thompson: Puny Parker? He looks nothing like Spidey! I should've been Spider-Man.
- Peter Parker: Don't worry, Flash. You fill out your costume nicely, too.
- [Robbies places a Daily Globe on Jonah's desk]
- J. Jonah Jameson: And why should I care what the Globe runs on its front page?
- Robbie Robertson: Because their Spider-Man scoop, and Parker's pictures of it, slaughtered our space shuttle coverage at the newsstands.
- J. Jonah Jameson: [Crumples the paper] The people have spoken. Get that traitor Parker in here and lock him to and exclusive deal. If they way Spider-Man, we'll give'em Spider-Man. Here's tomorrow's front page headline: "Spider-Man: Threat or Menace?"
- Spider-Man: This makes no sense. I'm Har- if this kid's the Goblin, why would he attack the Big Man? Why attack OsCorp?
- Norman Osborn: I've had "dealings" with the Big Man. But when I tried to extricate myself, I was threatened by his stooge.
- Harry Osborn: Hammerhead.
- Norman Osborn: Harry must have overheard. Under the influence of the Green, his subconscious created someone who could take the Big Man down. Now, as to why he attacked me...
- Harry Osborn: Maybe I've got some anger issues.
- Norman Osborn: I will not allow this. I'll say I was the Goblin. After all, I invented the Green. I'm the obvious suspect.
- Spider-Man: No. He needs you. And what good could you do him locked away for a crime you didn't commit?
- Norman Osborn: Didn't I? This is all my fault. I drove Harry to... I will get him help, I swear. If you'll let me.
- Spider-Man: Me?
- Norman Osborn: If you turn him in, if the Big Man learns Harry was the Goblin, he wouldn't survive the night. Please. He's my only child.
- Spider-Man: [to himself] And my best friend.
- [to Osborn]
- Spider-Man: The Goblin disappears. Forever. Leaving a mystery that never gets solved.
- Norman Osborn: Thank you.
