Synopsis:
Spider-Man returns to his apartment through the skylight. Suddenly, his landlord, Maimie Muggins, begins pounding on the door demanding that Peter pay up his overdue rent. Trying to make a retreat back out the skylight, Spider-Man narrowly avoids being seen by the new neighbors who moved in next door, who have come up to the roof to tan.[Continuity 1] With Miss Muggins threatening to come into the apartment, Peter quickly strips off his costume and throws a towel around himself to make it look as though he just got out of the shower. He tries to deflect her demands by complaining about their neighbors. However, Muggins points out that one of the women up on the roof is her niece and she pays her rent on time. Peter assures her that he will pay his rent on Thursday, which satisfied Maimie for the time being. Peter worries about his money situation as he is broke and still needs to buy a present for his Aunt May, in the hopes it will soften relations between them.
