Because he probably has some hero stuff for you to do.

You're a superhero.

He calls superheroes.

Well, I mean, if it was really that important, he'd probably call someone else, not me.

That's it.

He'll call her ID.

That's him.

Let's get a drink.

Peter?

Peter?

Peter?

Oh, I didn't see anything.
151
Oh, my God.
152
This isn't what it looks like, Happy.
153
No, no, no, mate.

This is not what it looks like.

Practice safe.
156
Oh, hey.
157
You must be MJ.
158
Nice to meet you.
159
Nice to meet you.
160
So nice to meet you.
161
Wait, have you been crying?
162
We broke up.
163
Oh.
164
I'm excited to see you tomorrow.
165
Yeah, me too.
166
Wrap it up.
167
You both like each other.
168
We get it.
169
Hang up.
170
No new ground being broken, okay?
171
I need my eight hours.
172
Have you been listening this whole time?
173
Hi, Happy.
174
Uh, not by choice.
175
MJ says hi.
176
Hello.
177
Peter, we would love to welcome you back to Midtown High, where we shape heroes.
178
Uh-huh. Or murderers.
179
Stop it.
180
Uh-huh.
181
It's an honor to serve you.
182
Serve.
183
It's not.
184
Mysterio was right.
185
Stop.
186
Mysterio was right.
187
We don't, that's all.
188
Some of the students put this together for you.
189
No, you did that.
190
You did that.
191
I helped a little bit.
192
Oh, wow.
193
I tried to stop you so many times, but you piled through.
194
He did all of it.
195
You did a great job.
196
I hope you have time to stop and check it out.
197
Yeah, and feel free to walk or swing through the hallway or crawl on the ceiling to avoid everybody.
198
We all know you can do it.
199
I'm just going to know what you did.
200
Stop it.
201
You're embarrassing yourself.
202
You know what you did.
203
He's a conspiracy theorist.
204
Look, Parker, the problem is not Mysterio.
205
It's you trying to live two different lives.
206
And the longer you do that, the more dangerous it becomes.
207
Believe me, I'm so sorry about you and your friends not getting into college.
208
But if they rejected you and you tried to convince them to reconsider, there's nothing else you can do.
209
When you say convince them, you mean like I could have called them?
210
Yeah.
211
I could do that.
212
You haven't called them?
213
Well, I mean, I got their letter and I assumed that that was...
214
I'm sorry. Are you telling me
215
that you didn't even think to plead your case with him first before you asked me to brainwash the entire world?
216
I mean when you put it like that then...
217
What's happening?
218
New device detected.
219
Pairing new device.
220
You don't listen to him, you listen to me.
221
Whoa!
222
Hey!
223
Hey!
224
Listen to me!
225
No, not him!
226
Me!
227
Different Peter.
228
Weird.
229
Thanks.
230
Sorry.
231
Don't worry about it.
232
Give me the box.
233
No!
234
Whoa!
235
What?
236
What?
237
What?
238
What?
239
Oh my god, I'm dead.
240
You're not dead, you've just been separated from your physical form.
241
My physical...
242
What?
243
How are you doing that?
244
I have no idea.
245
You should not be able to do that.
246
This feels amazing.
247
That might be one of the coolest things that's ever happened to me.
248
But don't ever do that again.
249
Thank you.

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.
