Finale time as Derek and John chat all about Spider-Noir Episode 8 "Man Behind The Mask” as the fantastic show comes to an end. We discuss this all in Spoiler filled detail so make sure you've watched…
Sure.
After learning that Ben Reilly has an antidote for the superpowers, Kat Hardy arranges a meeting with his secretary, Janet.
But they were watching, and they follow Janet to Robbie Robertson's place, and they capture the recovering Ben Reilly.
Silvermane forces Ben to contact the Spider, with Robbie posing as him, and orders the antidote brought over to the Alcove bar.
After Dirk Laden recognizes Ben from the war, Silvermane realizes Ben is the Spider and threatens Kat to make him confess.
To protect Ben, Kat reveals she is the one who betrayed Silvermane.
Before Silvermane can kill her, Robbie arrives dressed as the Spider.
Thinking he is the Spider, Megawatt injects Robbie with the cure and electrocutes him, then tries to persuade Flint Marko to help overthrow Silvermane.
Ben regains use of his webbing just in time and fights the two powerful fighters while Kat tracks down and kills Silvermane.
Ah.
The Spider gets the better of Megawatt and kills him by throwing him into an oncoming train.
Ben gives the last antidote dose to Flint Marko, sacrificing his only chance to become human again so Kat and Flint can be together.
Robbie leaves the Daily Bugle to lead the Harlem Herald, and Ben and Janet renovate their joint office, now called Reilly and Ruiz Investigations.
Aw, precursor to Alias Investigations.
I know, exactly.
You know, future.
Really good.
[laughs]
Yeah, I like that.
Absolutely.
I like that little touch.
It's great, yeah.
Sure.
