Quotes
-
Miles Morales : I love chai tea.
Spider-Man India : What did you just say? Chai tea? Chai means "tea", bro! You are saying "tea tea"! Would I ask you for a "coffee coffee" with room for "cream cream"?
-
Miles Morales : Everyone keeps telling me how my story is supposed to go. Nah. I'm-a do my own thing.
-
Hobie Brown : I don't believe in teams.
Miles Morales : Aren't you in a band?
Hobie Brown : I don't believe in consistency.
Miles Morales : Oh this guy's killing me.
-
Miles Morales : Can this day get any damn weirder?
[Spider-Rex appears]
Miles Morales : I guess it can.
-
Gwen Stacy : Miles! Miles! Miles! You got a minute?
Miles Morales : [screams] Whoa. Gwen, how did you... how did you... how did you get... how've you been?
Gwen Stacy : It's a long story. Is this the room you grew up in?
Miles Morales : It... It is...
[hiding his action figures]
Miles Morales : But, uh, my, uh, dorm room is very adult.
Gwen Stacy : Right. No, of course.
[web slings Miles' sketchbook]
Miles Morales : Hey!
Gwen Stacy : Are these your drawings?
Miles Morales : What? No! No!
Gwen Stacy : They look good.
[stops on a drawing of herself, Miles hangs his head, embarrassed and sighs]
Gwen Stacy : I missed you, too.
Miles Morales : Okay. So what are you doing here? I... I mean I thought I'd never see you again.
Gwen Stacy : Wanna get outta here?
Miles Morales : I'm... grounded.
Gwen Stacy : Bummer.
[somersaults out the window]
Gwen Stacy : Is Spider-Man grounded?
Miles Morales : Um... I mean I...
-
Spot : I created you. You created me.
Jeff Morales : Spider-Man, why'd you create that guy?
Miles Morales : I didn't! He's talking crazy.
-
Miles Morales : [about a building being consumed by one of the Spot's holes] What is that?
Hobie Brown : A metaphor for capitalism.
-
Hobie Brown : Alright my name's Hobie, Hobie Brown. I was bitten by a- wouldn't you like to know, get what I mean? And for the last three years I've been the one and only- wait, wait, waitwaitwait wait wait. You think I'm gonna show my secret identity? Come out of it. That is when I'm not playing shows, antagonising facists, staging unpermitted political action/performing art pieces. OR, having a laugh at the pub with the mandem. I'm not a role model, I was briefly a runway model. I hate the AM, I hate the PM, I hate labels, I'm not a hero, because calling yourself a hero makes you a self-mythologizing narcissistic autocrat.
Miles Morales : Wait, I thought you hated labels.
-
Miguel O'Hara : Miles, being Spider-Man is a sacrifice. That's the job. That's what you signed up for.
Miles Morales : So we're just supposed to let people die?
Miguel O'Hara : You have a choice between saving one person, and saving an entire world, every world.
Miles Morales : I can do both! Spider-Man always...
Peter B. Parker : Not always.
Miles Morales : What about Uncle Ben? If you knew about that, would you not save him too?
Peter B. Parker : If not for Uncle Ben, most of us wouldn't be here, Miles...
-
Miguel O'Hara : You're the original anomaly!
[Miles glitches as Gwen and Peter climb up the train]
Gwen Stacy : Miguel!
Miguel O'Hara : The spider that gave you your powers, wasn't from your dimension. It was never supposed to bite you!
Gwen Stacy : Miguel don't!
Miguel O'Hara : There's a world out there with no Spider-Man to protect them, because it bit you instead. You're not supposed to be Spider-Man!
Miles Morales : No, you're lying! I'm Spider-Man!
[Miguel cuts through two webs Miles shoots and grabs him by the chest]
Miguel O'Hara : You're a mistake!
[He slams Miles onto the roof of the train, pinning him down]
Miguel O'Hara : If you hadn't been bit, your Peter Parker would've lived! Instead he died, saving you. He would've stopped the collider before it ever went off, Spot wouldn't exist, and none of this would've happened. And all this time, I have been the only one holding it all together.
Peter B. Parker : Miguel, go easy on him!
Miguel O'Hara : You don't belong here. You never did.
-
Miles Morales : Who are you?
Miles G. Morales : [removes his mask] I'm Miles Morales. But you, you can call me The Prowler.
-
Miles Morales : I can hear you being quiet, Mom.
Rio Morales : I am...
[grunts]
Rio Morales : Hope I didn't ice your game, man.
Miles Morales : Mom, no one my age says those words in that order.
Rio Morales : Sorry, it's just hard to see my little man not be my little boy all the time.
Miles Morales : Yeah.
Rio Morales : For years, I've been taking care of this little boy. Making sure he is loved
Rio Morales : That he feels like he belongs wherever he wants to be. He wants to go on to the world and do great big things.
Rio Morales : Not a bad kid. And what i worry about most.
Rio Morales : I love you Miles. It's just they won't look out for you like us.
Rio Morales : Miles.
Miles Morales : [Gwen] Miles. Wanna get out of here.
Rio Morales : Wherever you go from here, you have to promise to take care of that little boy for me.
Rio Morales : Make sure he never forgets where he came from. And he never doubts that he's loved.
Rio Morales : And never lets anyone tell him that he doesn't belong there.
Rio Morales : You've gotta promise, Miles.
Miles Morales : I promise.
Rio Morales : Now go.
-
Miles Morales : How many missions have you been on together?
Gwen Stacy : Oh not that many.
Hobie Brown : A couple dozen.
-
Miles Morales : [to a kid licking the window on a subway train] Don't - don't do that.
-
Miles Morales : You were right, Gwen. You should've never come to see me.
-
Miles Morales : Everyone keeps telling me how MY story is supposed to go! Naw. I'm gonna do my own thing
-
Jeff Morales : [after the Spot falls through one of his own portals] What just happened?
Miles Morales : He... kicked his own butt!
-
Miguel O'Hara : You don't belong here. You never did.
Miles Morales : [strained] Let... me... go!
Gwen Stacy : Miguel, that's enough!
Peter B. Parker : This isn't what we talked about!
[Miles then realizes that Miguel conferred with Peter B. and Gwen about him being an "anomaly"]
Miles Morales : You talked about this? You knew? You- you all knew?
Gwen Stacy : I- I didn't know... how to tell you.
Miles Morales : [disappointed] That's why you never came to see me.
[Peter B. and Gwen seem to feel bad for Miles]
Gwen Stacy : Miles, it's for your own good!
Miles Morales : Who decides that?
[gets held down by Miguel]
Miles Morales : I'm not a kid, Gwen!
[Miguel, once again, shoves Miles onto the roof of the train]
Miguel O'Hara : That's exactly what you are. You're just a kid who has no idea what he's doing!
[Miles notices he can Venom Strike Miguel, who shoves him onto the train again]
Miles Morales : Yeah, well... I *did* lure hundreds of Spider-People away from your little clubhouse.
[Miguel gasps as the scene descends to a lower part of the train, where the Spider-People are following Miles]
Spider-Men : [clamouring]
Peter B. Parker : I guess he *did* plan this out.
Miles Morales : And... I'm about to do this.
[Miles absorbs the energy of Miguel's suit to charge his Venom Strike, confusing and somewhat scaring him]
Miles Morales : Everyone keeps telling me how *my* story is supposed to go. Nah... I'm-a do my own thing.
[Miles's Venom Strike is now fully charged]
Miles Morales : Sorry, man. I'm going home.
[Miles releases his Venom Strike on Miguel, making him scream]
Miles Morales : [tearfully] Goodbye, Gwen.
[Miles lets go of the train, sending him into freefall]
Gwen Stacy : Miles!
[Miles turns invisible as he heads for the Go Home Machine]
Peter B. Parker : I taught him how to do that, so... I gotta be a pretty good mentor to pull that off.

Spider-Man India : My name is Pavitr Prabhakar, and for the past six months...
Miles Morales : Six? And even *he* gets a watch?
Gwen Stacy : Yeah, uh...
Spider-Man India : Being Spider-Man is so easy! I wake up, skip the workout 'cause I'm naturally buff and I don't wanna get too big, y'know? Do almost nothing with my amazing hair...
Miles Morales : You don't use any product at all?
Spider-Man India : Just coconut oil, prayer, some genetics. Then I swing by school, don't really have to try, but I do anyway. Fight a few bad guys, feed a few stray dogs, quick break for a cup of chai with my Maya Auntie...
Miles Morales : I love chai tea.
Spider-Man India : [shocked] What did you just say? "Chai tea"? Chai means tea, bro!
Miles Morales : Oh. Oh, um...
Spider-Man India : You're saying tea tea! Would I ask you for a coffee coffee with room for cream cream?
Miles Morales : I'm sorr- sorry. I'm sorry! I'm so sorry.
Spider-Man India : Then I hang out with my girlfriend, Gayatri. She's an extremely classy teenager.
[talking with Gayatri]
Spider-Man India : Hey, girl. Tonight, I was thinking...
[Pavitr's Spider-Sense notices Inspector Singh approaching the couple]
Spider-Man India : Aah, hello! Police Inspector Singh, this is your daughter, I do not know her.
-
Miguel O'Hara : You don't get it! You're an anomaly!
Miles Morales : Not if you let me go home!
[Miguel is sent flying to another car, where the driver is pointing to where Miles is]
Miles Morales : SNITCH!
[Miguel notices where Miles is going, and chases after him]
Miguel O'Hara : *Everywhere* you go, you're an anomaly!
[Miles and Miguel fight back to the roof of the train]
Miguel O'Hara : You're the *original* anomaly!
[Miles glitches again, this time on top of the train]
-
Spider-Man India : Hey, who's the new guy?
Gwen Stacy : Hey, Pav. He's Miles, and he wasn't invited.
Spider-Man India : Ho-ho, you weren't invited but you came anyway?
Gwen Stacy : I know, right?
Spider-Man India : Hey, new guy must be in love with you!
Gwen Stacy : Okay, whoa, Pav.
Miles Morales : I'm not.
Spider-Man India : Oh, I'm very good at reading people.
Gwen Stacy : [to Miles] No, he's not.
Miles Morales : Who are you?
Spider-Man India : I'm glad you asked, new guy!
Miles Morales : I'm not a new guy.
-
Jeff Morales : But he does these things that are so *stupid.*
[Miles is immediately shocked]
Jeff Morales : I just don't want him to mess it up.
Miles Morales : Maybe get off the kid's ass.
Jeff Morales : I'm sorry, what?
Miles Morales : What? Wha- I... I don't know.
-
Miles Morales : You're not a joke! Right, gang?
Gwen Stacy : Absolutely.
Spider-Man India : Completely unamusing!
Hobie Brown : I don't believe in comedy! Just kidding!
Miles Morales : See? No-one here thinks you're a joke!
Spot : You won't after this.
[Spot cuts the web with a portal and goes into the super-collider, waving goodbye to Miles and the gang]
Spider-Man India : Well, that was another easy adventure for Spider-Man!
Miles Morales : No, no, no, no!
Hobie Brown : No, no, no, no, no, no!
Gwen Stacy : No, Pavitr, no!
[the super-collider blows up, and The Spot is now a lot more powerful than before]
