Marvel Brodcast : Spoiling Spider-man

[The receptionist guided Peter to his table with a flourish, wishing him "Enjoy your meal" in French. Peter took his seat and repeated the phrase with a smile, "Enjoy your meal!"]

[As Peter rehearsed how he would surprise Mary Jane, she arrived at the door. Spotting her immediately, Peter stood and rushed to greet her. The two embraced warmly before taking their seats.]

["Can you even afford this place?" Mary Jane asked, her tone tinged with sarcasm.]

[Peter waved off her remark with a grin. "Oh, come on! This is a special occasion. You're a Broadway star!"]

[At his words, Mary Jane's mood visibly darkened. "I don't feel like a star tonight," she admitted.]

["You are a star! You've already made it!" Peter said enthusiastically, oblivious to the fact that Mary Jane had recently been fired.]

["Peter...you don't understand how I feel right now." Mary Jane's expression was a little sad.]

["Oh... no. I know exactly how you feel. Listen, I've been through this, too. It happens to me all the time." Peter looked at Mary Jane seriously, hoping she could understand that he was the same as her. ]

["I saw Spider-Man posters outside the window… Kids running down the street wearing sweaters with my name on them… Halloween constume, I don't know, I guess I've become some kind of idol, like yesterday, they kept chanting 'Spider-Man! Spider-Man!' "]

["I don't know either. I mean, sometimes I wonder: I'm just a nerd. Do I really deserve all this?" When Peter was talking to Mary Jane, he suddenly saw Gwen, and Gwen also saw him and greeted him. ]

[Mary Jane saw Peter's gesture, turned around, and saw Gwen. At the same time, the front desk mistakenly thought it was time, so she asked the waiters to bring the champagne. Peter quickly stopped him.]

[Gwen walked up to him, "Hi! My parents and I are here for dinner!" Then she greeted Mary Jane, "Hello! My name is Gwen Stacy!"]

[Gwen shook hands with Mary Jane, and Peter introduced Gwen: "This is Mary Jane Watson."]

[Hearing Peter's words, Gwen looked at Mary Jane with a little surprise, "Oh! I finally get to meet you. Peter always mentions you." and put her hand on Peter's shoulder. ]

[Mary Jane glanced at the hand on Peter's shoulder, then looked back at Peter, who explained, "Gwen is my lab partner in Dr. Connors's course."]

[Gwen praised Peter and said, "Peter is a genius. Without him, I might have given up! I suddenly remembered... Peter, did you take a picture of me kissing Spider-Man? Can you bring it to class?"]

[Hearing this, Peter nodded, and Gwen said happily: "I like it so much, I can make it my wallpaper! After all, how many people can be kissed by Spider-Man?"]

[Mary Jane felt very uncomfortable listening to Gwen's words. Gwen had no ill intentions, she just couldn't help but want to show off, but Mary Jane was jealous.]

[She forced a smile and said to her, "It's really hard to imagine!" At the same time, she gave Peter a glare.]

[Gwen read Mary Jane's expression and saw that she was unhappy. She thought it might be because she had boasted to her that she had kissed Spider-Man, so she stopped smiling and said, "Oh! It's really nice to meet you!" Then she said good night to Peter and left.]

[Peter gestured to Gwen, and the front desk staff again mistakenly thought that he was signalling him, so the waiter came out with champagne. Peter gestured no again, so they were called back by the front desk staff again.]

[Peter explained to Mary Jane: "She and I have class together, and chemistry is not her strong point." Mary Jane listened to Peter's words and looked at him with a frown. Peter didn't understand what was wrong with Mary Jane. ]

["Then why have you never mentioned her?" Mary Jane asked, suppressing her anger, "She was your lab partner? You saved her life? She also thought you are a genius... She casually put her beautiful hand on your shoulder? Didn't you notice?"]

[Peter's expression became a little solemn, and it was unclear what Mary Jane wanted to express.]

["She made Spider-Man a city hero! I'll never forget it!" Mary Jane's jealous look made Peter a little overwhelmed. ]

[He explained with a somewhat stiff expression on his face: "She is just a classmate in the class!"]

["Then let me ask you, when you kissed her... who was kissing her? Spider-Man or Peter?" Mary Jane stared at him closely. ]

["What do you mean?"]

["You know what I mean! It was our kiss! Why did you do that? Do you have any idea how that makes me feel? Are you trying to dump me?" Mary Jane's voice trembled with emotion.]

[Realizing the gravity of his mistake, Peter replied earnestly, "Dump you? Why would I dump you? I love you! You're my girlfriend. Gwen is just a classmate, Mary Jane!"]

[But Mary Jane wasn't listening. Lost in her own turmoil, she stood abruptly. "I feel terrible. Sorry, Peter, I have to go."]

[She stood up and left. Peter tried to stop her, "No! Wait a minute..." The receptionist in the distance thought it was a signal for him, so he snapped his fingers immediately, and the waiters came over with the champagne.]

["Where are you going?"]

["Please, don't follow me!" Mary Jane turned back and said to him painfully. ]

[The receptionist, unaware of the unfolding drama, smiled as he set the champagne on the table. Peter sat down, staring at the glass. Slowly, he fished the engagement ring out of the champagne and wiped it clean, his expression a mixture of disappointment and heartbreak.]

"Mary Jane felt inferior. She realized that she was nothing compared to Gwen. Even the Spider's Kiss that she had enjoyed before no longer belonged to her alone. That's why she broke down."

Rhodes nodded in agreement and complained, "She has kissed so many boyfriends before, including that Flash Thompson, Harry, and that John."

Uncle Ben sat next to Aunt May, "What Norman said before was right, Mary Jane is that kind of person, so she can't accept a woman who is better than her in all aspects around Peter."

"She loves Spider-Man, not Peter, and Peter can't give her anything except the identity of Spider-Man that cannot be exposed. What The Screen said does make sense on this point."

Aunt May nodded gently and leaned on Ben's shoulder.

The receptionist scratched his head embarrassedly. He didn't work in the restaurant yet, but was still an Usher at the theatre.

In the screen, he misunderstood Peter's meaning again and again, making the onlookers laugh.

This was not his first time to appear on the screen. The last time he appeared on the screen was when he stopped Peter outside the theatre, preventing Peter from entering the theater.

He also received some critic during that time, with some people blaming him for Peter's loss of his superpowers, but fortunately he survived in the end.
