1x13 - Strange
Yes. No, Fury... eyepatch... what?
Monday. School. Joy.
Behold the glamorous morning routine of your favorite superhero.
Who was up till 1:00 A.M. saving the "city that never sleeps."
FYI, I noticed a lot of sleeping while I was fighting.
What?
Peter? Rise and shine, hon!
No, no, no, no, no! Uh, school's closed, Aunt May.
They're spraying for bugs!
Don't! I... this isn't what it looks like...
sweet Christmas, what is that?
This old thing? Why... you gave it to me for my birthday.
Are you seein' this? 'Cause I'm seein' this and...
Stop that!
You look flush. Do you have a fever?
Unh...
- Let me kiss your temple... - Unh... eh!
That is the exact opposite of what I want to do right now.
Danny?
Man!
I just had the weirdest dream.
Your Aunt looked like a spider? You had extra arms?
That's creepy. How'd you know?
I was there, man, dreamwalking.
But it wasn't natural. Took nearly all of my Chi energy
to wake us up before we wound up like them.
Why? They're just asleep.
All of 'em... at the same time.
You're gonna say something all
weird and foreboding now, aren't you?
Dreams are the window to the soul.
Someone has slammed them all shut.
I knew it. Ugh!

The whole city is asleep. How is that possible?
Knock-out gas? Nighty-night tea in the water supply?
Sleepy-time-ray? Bike's sensors are picking up nada.
Expand your mind, Spider-Man.
This is not the work of science.
So SHIELD's gone nighty-night, too. Great.
This is the supernatural.
I have some training in mystic combat, and this has all the signs.
Web-headed menace... spider-buffoon...
Man, that dude has issues.
I'm sorry. You were saying something ridiculous about magic?
Magic is woven through the fabric of the universe, Spider-Man.
- Chi, celestial energy, life itself. - "It penetrates and binds us?"
Yes!
I was quoting, Danny. You have to get out more.
Look, I like magic as much as the next guy,
especially when Uncle Ben used to do it.
- And, voilá! Magic! - Cool! Make more!
Sneeze. Go on.
Ah-choo?
Oh, there's something in your ear.
Oh, come on, Uncle Ben. I'm too old... what is that?
Uh, the key to the lock for your new bike.
New bike? Really?
Oh, thanks, Uncle Ben!
Hey, Pete, I know. You're gettin' older.
But never stop believing, OK? Life is full of magic.
You close your eyes and you're gonna miss it.
That's kid stuff!
Anything that looks like magic is just science we don't understand yet.
Tell that to the Sorcerer Supreme.
Heh. I had a triple cheeseburger supreme once.
Is he anything like that?
The "greatest wizard of all time" lives here?
Did he cast a "don't pay the rent" spell?
He's the only one who can help us.
And don't call him a wizard. He's a Doctor.
Whatever. Paging Dr. Coo-coo...
Ow! Whoa! Gah!
Who put that gargoyle there?
Who put that spooky house there?
Cloaking device. Big whoop.
I have a magic timepiece with a one-eyed troll inside.
Ta-da!
The path to enlightenment awaits.
Your friend went full on "sorcerer chic" when he decorated the joint.
That takes guts. But I'm sorry, Danny.
Putting a junky old box on a pedestal doesn't make it magic.
Get back, get back. Get in there!
Do not touch anything else. One crisis is enough.
Nice. Scare the new guy. Funny.
Dr. Strange, I presume.
You can address me as Sorcerer Supreme.
Yes, Spider-Man. Iron Fist.
I'm impressed you're both conscious.
Namaste, Doctor. It was your training that saved me.
I found Spider-Man just before he fell too deeply under the spell.
That's different. He's uniquely connected to this reality
by energies that would act as a beacon
for someone with your sensitivity, Danny.
You're lucky to have this...
"Spider-Sense", I believe you call it?
Was that like, mind-reading?
Guess what number I'm thinking of...
You aren't thinking of a number. You're thinking of flapjacks.
This way, gentlemen. We have little time.
- Wha... ? - There are greater things in Heaven
and Earth than are dreamt of in your philosophy.
Whoa!
This is the demon called Nightmare,
the self-proclaimed "King of Dreams."
He's tried to escape the dream dimension for eons,
and finally found a way through...
Dreams aren't another dimension. They're just in your head.
To our limited human perception, it seems so.
But I assure you, the dimension of dreams is real.
Nightmare found a way here to Earth
and unleashed a powerful incantation
that put everyone into an endless sleep.
Those poor souls will suffer their worst nightmares...
...feeding him for eternity.
For real? 'Cause I have to tell you, Doc,
my "non-sense" is tingling. I don't do "magic."
Honestly, Danny? This was the best you could do?
A dull blade can make an excellent hammer.
I heard "excellent" and "dull"... Am I offended or not?
Destiny has chosen you to be here for a reason, Spider-Man.
If you hope to fulfill your purpose and save mankind,
you will have to do the impossible.
Close your mouth and open your mind.
Eye of Agomotto, pierce the veil with your eternal sight!
My mind... totally blown.
Prepare, yourselves.
We're going to enter the realm of dreams
and stop Nightmare, or else humanity falls...
Whoa!
How did he... ?
Be careful. We're in his world now.
And, Spider-Man, stay on the path...
Um, the door's on the path, right? White Tiger?
It's the final. Didn't you study?
Final? I didn't come to class all semester.
I haven't studied at all!
- Well then you fail! - No!
Ava, it's just a dream! Wake up!
That is her dream-self, Spider-Man.
While under Nightmare's control, she cannot hear you, nor can the others.
I won't let you down. I can do it!
Power Man? This is some messed-up stuff right here.
The eyes!
Those horrible pink eyes! And those floppy ears!
Who knows what lurks in the dark?
I know it ain't bunnies!
We mustn't linger. You can't help him.
Yeah. Do cameras work here?
OK, you guys win.
I will temporarily press pause on my magic-bashing,
because there's no logical explanation for this much crazy... yet.
Too late for that, little spider.
I caught you and the good Doctor sleeping on the job.
And now the world belongs to nightmare!
If I am dreaming, this would be an awesome time to wake up.
Ow!
Not dreaming!
This farce is over, Nightmare!
Feel the sting of the Crimson Chains of Cyttorrak!
Oh, you're playing the same old game, Doctor.
As you can see, I've changed the rules.
Dreamons!
Dreamons? I'm getting you a Thesaurus for dream Christmas.
And tanning spray.
Hey! I call no bending the rules of physics!
The only rule here is... survive.
Isn't it just a dream?
We three are living beings walking the land of dreams.
If we lose here, we'll be lost forever.
Got it! No losing.
Shroud-Blade of Sha'roth!
Oh, Doctor... I'm practically drowning in power!
Drinking in the suffering of millions.
And you're trying the same tired tricks?
I confine you with the Mists of Munnopor!
Didn't anyone tell you smoking is bad for you?
Dude, you're creepy as all heck.
But funny? Not your gig. Seriously.
How desperate you must be, allying yourself with children,
Sorcerer Supreme.
Cede your defeat! This is the eternal night!
My world, my rules!
Shield of the Seraphim!
How about you whip up the "Laser Cannon of Luxembourg"
or whatever and blast that pasty-faced goon?
With so many minds to feed upon, he's too powerful.
Brute force alone will not win the day!
What other kind of force is there?
We must find a way to weaken him.
Nightmare will do his best to separate us and attack through our fears.
You must keep your wits about you or we are done.
What about your fears?
I am Sorcerer Supreme. Every soul on this planet
in this dimension is under my protection.
I cannot allow myself the luxury of fear.
Wow, you're good.
Danny? Danny, where'd you go?
Daggers of Daveroth!
My power is waning. We must stay together.
Ah... Well that's great.
Hey-yo, Iron Fist! Dr. Tour Guide said not to wander off.
- Danny? - This is K'un Lun.
This is where I became Iron Fist, my home.
I bet it's fantastic in real life!
This is Nightmare's playground, remember?
And that's a wrap for Iron Fist's mind.
How about a round of applause, everyone?
This is not your home!
Shou Lao!
Shou no! It's just Nightmare!
I have nothing to fear here, Spider-Man.
I faced the great Shou Lao before and beat him to gain this.
You have squandered your gifts running with nonbelievers and fools!
Fools? Well, Nova maybe.
Iron Fist, snap out of it!
Whoa!
What? Hey!
You are weak, undeserving.
You are not worthy!
You're not buying this, are you?
You're like the most deserving, honorable guy I know!
I... I earned the iron fist, but...
there's a part of me that's always been afraid it was a mistake.
That the power wasn't meant for me.
No way, Danny. You are Iron Fist!
Not today!
No! Whoa!
Unh...
I think I hate dream world logic.
Bismuth, Blade of Barragoth!
How long have I waited to watch you crawl at my feet?
Truly, this is a dream come true.
Unh!
If we don't get turned into dream-nuggets
for chalky the clown here, teach me how to do that?
You caught me unawares, Nightmare, but I am no child.
I am the master of the mystic arts!
Yeah! Bring it!
Indeed. "Bring it."
Is Nightmare like, really allergic to pollen?
Otherwise, I don't get the plan.
There is no plan, because there is no magic!
Isn't that right, Spider-Man?
I didn't say that... exactly.
You can stop playin' with your food, Doc!
Just hit him with the whamma-jamma and let's go!
He's... so strong, I...
by the power of Pinochle, I...
I got nothin'. Doc?
I... I am powerless?
Doc, he's playing your fears.
Just like he did Iron Fist!
It's not real!
Destiny chose you to be here for a reason.
Of us all you must believe.
This nightmare isn't for you, boy!
Kids, if you don't want to see your absolute
favorite super-dude of all time get pawned, look away.
I must admit, you surprise me, insect.
Strange and Iron Fist are true believers steeped in magic.
Yet here you are, last bug crawling.
I stopped believing in the boogeyman years ago, Nightmare.
Take your best shot.
"Shot"... perfect choice of word.
Reminds me of someone you once knew.
A man who believed in you and was punished for that very faith!
Your greatest failure.
Welcome to your nightmare, Spider-Man!
No! Not Uncle Ben.
Your greatest fear, your greatest failure
back to haunt you forever.
- Uncle Ben? - How's it goin', Pete?
- Still day dreamin', aren't ya? - You got half that right Uncle Ben.
Man, it's great to see you.
"Great to see you?" This is your ultimate failure!
Your greatest fear...
Yeah, you said that. Who's the Gloomy Gus?
Mr. Pasty? He's just pathetic.
Nightmare, you don't know my Uncle Ben,
and you sure as heck don't know me.
You think this is some buried secret? Even though I couldn't save him,
I live with what happened to Uncle Ben every day...
but not in the way you think.
I took responsibility for this tragedy
and turned it into something special,
helping people every day as Spider-Man.
Guess who taught me that magic trick?
Thanks, Uncle Ben. I miss you.
Go get 'em, Pete.
This is my special dream room, right?
Let's see what I really dream about.
I had a nightmare. You and Aunt May were...
It's OK. It's OK.
We all have nightmares. They're not real.
What's real are the dreams we make, how we live our lives every day.
That's your greatest fear, isn't it?
Sorcery may be real, but nightmares?
Once you face them, there's nothing to be afraid of.
The boy's actually doing it.
Be gone, Dreamons!
Welcome back, Doc.
If you'll do the honors, Spider-Man...
It's open mic night here at the nightmare lounge.
And I'd like to kick things off with a little number I call
"There's nothing to be afraid of! It's just a nightmare!"
Spider-Man stinks!
It's just a nightmare...
I earned the Iron Fist. I use it to the best of my ability.
I honor that power through my actions,
and no one can take that from me, not even you!
No. No. No!
Nice entrance.
I try. Thank you for believing in me
and waking me up to the truth.
No, I had them... I had them all!
Pleasant dreams.
No!
You don't mess around, Sorcerer Supreme.
Is Nightmare gone for good?
No. There will always be nightmares. It's part of who we are.
But when we face them, we can overcome, and be stronger for it.
You reminded us of that Spider-Man.
Thank you.
Speaking of nightmares...
ever have the one where you had to get back to school
before anyone knew you were missing?
Oh, boy.
OK. So we all had weird dreams,
but no one remembers falling asleep or waking up?
Something's goin' on.
I don't know what you guys are worried about.
We took a little nap.
I feel great.
Ho ho! Look at this!
Hey, how do you spell doofus backwards?
Sweet dreams.
