1
What if everyone forgot who I was?
2
What?
3
They're coming here because of me, right?
4
Because I'm Peter Parker?
5
So cast a new spell.
6
But this time make everyone forget who Peter Parker is.
7
Make everyone forget.
8
Hello fellow quirky peeps.
9
Doctor Strange 2 just opened up a world full of mysteries.
10
Its massive worldwide opening proves that so many people have already seen the movie.
11
And several viewers have certain questions about what happened in the multiverse of madness.
12
One of those questions came up regarding Spider-Man.
13
People are asking whether Doctor Strange still remembers Peter Parker.
14
Apparently, everyone's not 100% clear about what really happened at the end of No Way Home.
15
Strange a spell did create a few mysteries.
16
We need answers for the extent to which the spell worked.
17
Did it destroy all physical records of Peter on the planet?
18
Were his physical documents all gone?
19
Throughout his life, he would have been in multiple videos with his friends like Ned.
20
I mean, he made a video call to the guy at thedailybugle.net, and the whole world saw him speaking without a mask.
21
So what happened to all those videos?
22
Were they erased?
23
What happened to the image of Peter and Tony at Tony's home?
24
And why did MJ still show an inclination to remember him with her Black Dahlia necklace?
25
There are so many questions that people have about what happened after the spell.
26
Are there others who still might remember him?
27
The simple answer is everyone forgot Peter, but they still remember Spider-Man.
28
But if the Avengers forgot that Peter attended Tony's funeral, then who do they think Aunt May came with?
29
How does Happy remember Aunt May if he doesn't remember Peter Parker?
30
And did Peter 2 and Peter 3 also forget about Peter 1?
31
But at least some of these questions that I've asked should be clarified in MCU's Spider-Man 4.
32
Now with the conversation about Spider-Man and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, people have asked a few more questions as well.
33
Doctor Strange spoke to America Chavez about a multiversal incident that happened with Spider-Man.
34
Apparently, people are confused as to how he could remember Spider-Man after the spell.
35
Well here's the deal.
36
Doctor Strange has not forgotten Spider-Man.
37
He has only forgotten Peter Parker.
38
The runes which he cast for the memory-wiping spell were just supposed to wipe out Peter Parker from everyone's memory.
39
I don't understand that would mean that everyone who knows and loves you, we.. we have no memory of you.
40
Those who initially knew that Peter Parker was Spider-Man don't know that anymore.
41
In fact, Peter Parker doesn't exist in anyone's memory at all.
42
It's as if he does not exist in this world anymore.
43
And if you hear the conversation between Doctor Strange and America Chavez, you could clearly make out that Strange only knew that there's a Spider-Man, but he doesn't know him very well.
44
He hadn't seen his face and he doesn't know who's under the mask.
45
All he knows is that there's a Spider-Man who is an Avenger and is more likely a man than a spider.
46
He can climb walls and shoot webs, and hopefully does not shoot webs out of his butt.
47
This conversation was another dig at the one that happens between the three Peter Parkers.
48
That's because Peter 2 shot his webs organically out of his wrists.
49
That came out of you.
50
Yeah.
51
You can't do that.
52
Like, does it just come out of your wrists, or does it come out of anywhere else?
53
Only the wrists.
54
But since real spiders shoot it out of their rear ends, both of the other Peters probably began to wonder whether Peter 2 could also do that.
55
Anyway, the important thing to remember is that the world has forgotten Peter Parker.
56
They all know that a Spider-Man exists and that's all.
57
And the same goes for Doctor Strange.
58
His spell worked like a charm.
59
Okay, that's all for now.

What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
