Spider-Man goes heads-up with the strength of the Kingpin, who is knocked out when his own cane-gun backfires. The police arrest the Kingpin for theft of the priceless tablet, but he claims that his ally Spider-Man has spirited it away. Meanwhile, Spider-Man manages to open the vault and retrieve the tablet, but when he tries to return it the police open fire on him.
