Note: Peter would not have left the scene without collecting Goliath.

He looks them over to see if he recognizes anyone in the photos.

Though if you had needed to run with her, that might have been a good one. You're just a dedicated bystander. Don't sweat it. You did good."

Peter allows himself to be reassured that it wasn't a complete screw up, and tries to unclench.

"So am I. I'm sorry, it's hard to explain. I think it's a frame of reference thing. Do you believe in psychics? I saw her in there, like I said... I just happened to be dreaming at the time. It's probably just easiest to assume I'm crazy, and use the evidence I'm pointing out, but don't rely on me for testimony. No one will believe me AND I will probably vanish into thin air before we got to court. For real."
