The Parkers begin to adjust to their new life in Avengers Tower. The Avengers battle four Hydra agents with the looks and powers of Thor, Iron Man, Captain America and Hawkeye. When Spider-Man discovers that the Bugle was tipped off for photo ops at three of the four encounters, he speculates that the petty larceny his team foiled was simply a cover for the fourth and most sinister Hydra mission.
