Flash Thompson is in the spotlight in this Friday’s new episode of Spider-Man, the MTV animated series.
Here’s how Sony Television describes the plot:
"Remedial twins, Jack and Mack (David DeLouise) rob an armored car then throttle up their motorcycles for a clean getaway until Spider-Man (Neil Patrick Harris) intervenes. However Spider-Man is surprised at how smart Jack and Mack were in plotting the robbery.
"At the Empire State University campus Flash Thompson (Devon Sawa) flaunts the fact to Mary Jane Watson (Lisa Loeb) that he doesn't have to study anymore because he has landed himself a tutor. What a surprise when Flash learns that his tutor is actually Dr. Zellner, who is actively testing his new 'smart drug' -- the first subjects being Jack and Mack -- with substantially impaired IQs.
"Flash's fame evolves from athleticism to intellectualism as he charms members of the female student body with his wit and knowledge of everything from American Literature to a bilingual recitation of Shakespeare. However, soon it becomes obvious that there are physical side effects of this smart serum. Dr. Zellner is stumped as to why this is occurring and decides that he find an antidote via a more intelligent candidate ... Peter Parker!
"Jack and Mack continue to have Dr. Zellner pump them full of the 'smart drug' in an effort to pull off more elaborate crimes that only Spider-Man can stop along with rescuing Flash from Dr. Zellner."
