Peter Parker : You're throwing his stuff away?
Aunt May : No, god no, I couldn't do that it's part of me, I'm just finding a better place for it. I'm going to take one last look, and I'm going to put it where it belongs.

Peter Parker : Aunt May? What are you doing?
Aunt May : When did you do this?
Peter Parker : There's something you're not telling me, Aunt May. Every time I mention my parents, your eyes go down.I know you're not telling me something. You lie to me. I know you love me..
Aunt May : I don't.
Peter Parker : I know you love me but you do. Aunt May, Aunt May, you've to tell me, Aunt May it's my father.
Aunt May : Yes, he was your father that didn't seem to stop him from leaving you.
Peter Parker : I need the truth.
Aunt May : The truth is that your parents left you here, on our door step. And you're this little boy whose whole world was turned upside down with no explanation. We did the best, we could. Your Uncle Ben, he and I. Who else was going to care for you and protect you and worries about you? Your father? No. I was the one who wiped your nose and made you brush your teeht and do your homework and washed your dirty underwear. Me!
[Peter has tears in his eyes]
Aunt May : Your stupid nonscientific aunt, who doesn't know how to makes end meets who has to take nursing classes, with 22 year old kids, so I can pay for you to go to college and I don't know how to do this without Ben. I don't know how and you're dreaming about your perfect father who was never been here? No! No, I won't tell you. You're my boy. As far as I'm concerned you're my boy. And I won't hurt you.
Peter Parker : [Peter has tears in his eyes and goes to comfort his Aunt May] I'm your boy. You're my everything. You're enough. You're more than enough. That's not what this about it. Don't get that twisted. I love you so much.
Aunt May : I Know.
Peter Parker : It's okay, It's okay. Aunt May. I need to know
Aunt May : Alright. I'll tell you everything I know. But it will hurt you.
Peter Parker : Okay.
Aunt May : A few days after the funeral. Two men from the government came to see us.
[the flashback is shown where two men from the government came to May and Ben's house and enter to their house and talk with May and they show a file with Richard Parker photo]
Aunt May : They said the genetic research that your father was doing with Norman Osborn was very valuable and that people would pay a lot for it and that's why he ran off with it. They said he was a traitor. I couldn't believe it, Peter. They told us he betrayed his best friend, all of us for the money.
Peter Parker : I don't... I don't get it. No... this doesn't make sense
Aunt May : Yes I know. I didn't believe it either. I didn't believe it
Peter Parker : This doesn't make sense...
Aunt May : Peter... I don't know,. For so long, I would play it over and over in my head what had I missed, what had I missed. He was just a normal unassuming guy. He wore the same ratty lab coat for 20 years. He took the D train to work, at seven every morning came home at six every night. I don't know. Maybe everyone has a part of himself they hide even from the people they love. Peter?
[Peter looks at the wall]
Aunt May : Peter?
