[The video opens to a closeup of Peter's face.]

Hey!

[He flips it around to show a shot of a dark forest as far as the eye can see. You can see his other hand in in fram, holding what looks to be a long string of web and at the end of the web is a Spinarak crawling across the ground.

He's got his spider out for a walk, it's fine.]

So, not to alarm anybody, but I think I'm lost.

[Back to his face.]

I've been here for like two days now. But man, lemme tell you about my day! I was feeling hungry, right? As one does. So I'm kinda low on food and I see it, there in the distance. An apple tree! Cool, right? Well I go up, I have Spider-Man do his spider thing and stringshot an apple.

Only, and I didn't realize this until that exact moment, there were also Beedrill in that tree. Theeey don't like to be bothered.

So they're angry, I'm freaked out, Spider-Man doesn't know what's even going on, but I finally get it together and start giving him orders. The Beedrill are like "BZZZZ" and Spider-Man is like "pew, pew!" and he manages, somehow, to hit their wings and bring 'em down and we got away. That's great, yeah? Well the not so great part is this.

[There's a brief- and I mean brief cut to his arm where there's a stinger sticking out of it.]

Yeah, so I might've gotten stung. It's... fine. It's only bleeding a little. Anybody know how to take care of that? Thanks!

[There's a split second where the video delays in turning off and you can hear him letting out a breath and yelling OWWWW--]

*did he question whether things were fine? Not particularly, though that repeated insistence is... telling... in its own right....*

Once you've taken out the stinger, you can use a cloth soaked in water to clean the wound. Make certain it's been cleaned thoroughly, then use a clean, dry cloth to bind it if needed.

And have someone take a proper look at it once you do get to a town, of course.

[He's trying to reassure himself more than anyone, honestly. Fake it 'til you make it, that's all you gotta do. Then other people will believe you.]

Okay, so if I take it out it's- it won't, uh. Start gushing blood, right? It's safe to remove? Because back home, there was this celebrity- he was Australian, so you know he was more powerful than anybody- and he got stabbed and he pulled it out and he died. I don't wanna be that guy.

Unless it actually managed to pierce your artery, no. Even if it did, then binding your arm above the wound tightly would stem the flow of blood. Given that Beedrill's stings are capable of poisoning pokemon, however, it's probably better to remove it.

*he's keeping his own tone calm and level, though he'll add just a hint of authority if he needs to get the point across*

Just have some cloth or bandages prepared in advance, then go one step at a time. If it starts bleeding heavily, then wrap one tightly around your arm above it first, then go on to do the other steps.
