Cut to eight years later and we’ve got your friendly neighborhood teenager Peter Parker, fresh off his Avengers internship in a Civil War. Peter ditches normal high school activities ( to focus on being Spider-Man and fighting crime in New York.

One night he come acoss some crazy weapons with tech he’s never seen before. With Tony being MIA, , he tells his best friend Ned and becomes the world’s most enthusiastic guy-in-the-chair.

Meanwhile, Toomes is out here flying around as the Vulture, selling crazy dangerous weapons. Peter stumbles into this whole operation, almost drowns, gets yelled at by Tony Stark, and still decides, “I’m gonna fix this myself.” Bold strategy.

Things escalate quickly when peter goes on a field trip to D.C. which Peter agreed to go to to follow the weapons. He ends up getting trapped in a storage area overnight. He finds out a piece of tech that Ned has is a bomb. So when he finally get out, he rushes to the Washington monument to save his friends.

Back in New York, he finds out the weapons dealer is going to be on the Staten Island Ferry. It’s a disaster and Tony finally takes away the suit like a disappointed dad. Peter’s superhero grounded.

He tries to go back to being a normal kid, even asks his crush Liz to homecoming — which is adorable until he shows up at her house and realizes her dad is THE Vulture. And he realizes that Peter is Spider-Man.

He give Peter a very calm and terrifying threat, and heads off for one last big heist. Peter decides to ditch the dance to try to stop the heist, but with only his homemade suit available, He gets buried under rubble, has a full “I am Spider-Man” moment, gets back up, and stops the plane from being stolen… barely.

We get a final showdown on a beach, Vulture suit goes boom, but Peter saves him anyway, cuz that's just the type of guy he is.

Toomes goes to jail, Liz moves away, and Tony offers Peter a full-time Avengers gig… which he turns down, choosing to stay your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man.

The movie ends with Peter getting his suit back… just in time for May Parker to walk in and discover EVERYTHING.
