!!This episode provides examples of:
* AdaptedOut: This episode was based on ''The Amazing Spider-Man #65'', and a few characters were omitted to streamline the story:
** Spider-Man was injured during a fight with the Vulture in the comic, whereas here it's while he's hunting down a few generic bank robbers.
** Gwen had a prominent supporting role in the comic, as she was the one Captain Stacy was talking with before he was taken hostage. Because the Peter/Gwen relationship was never depicted on the show, Stacy is shown talking to his wife in the episode.
* DistressedDude: Captain Stacy is taken hostage by a group of prisoners who intend to use him to help break out of prison. Spider-Man is forced to figure out a way to stop the prisoners without them harming Stacy.
* DramaPreservingHandicap: Usually, a few non-superpowered criminals would be easy pickings for Spider-Man. But because they have a hostage and Peter's still recovering from his injuries at the beginning of the episode, he's forced to play along and help them escape.
* FakeDefector: To ensure that the prisoners don't harm Captain Stacy, Spider-Man offers to help them break out of jail. Although they're initially suspicious and attack him, Spidey is able to win their trust and is given the chance to sabotage their big escape.
* HaveAGayOldTime: The robbers at the beginning manage to take down Spider-Man by throwing a "vibrator" at him. No, Spidey wasn't knocked unconscious by a sex-toy, as it clearly resembles a jackhammer more than anything else.
* HollywoodDarkness: Spider-Man turns off the power to the prison to more easily pick off the convicts in the dark, except it doesn't look that much different than when the power was on. The show's limited budget meant it couldn't afford to paint new backgrounds or darken character models to give the illusion of shadows.
* InPrisonWithTheRogues: Spider-Man is taken to prison to recover after taking a nasty fall, and meets up with several criminals he helped put behind bars. When he offers to help them break out of prison, the prisoners initially don't trust him and try to attack him.
* PrisonEpisode: Spider-Man's not arrested, but he is placed under police custody after he's knocked unconscious attempting to stop a robbery. He's rather amused at the irony of a crime-fighter like him ending up in prison.
* PrisonRiot: A group of convicts escape from their cells and take Captain Stacy hostage so they can make a clean getaway. Spider-Man offers his assistance, if only so they won't hurt Stacy.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Captain Stacy protects an unconscious Spider-Man from the curious mob who wish to unmask him. Stacy focuses on getting Spider-Man medical attention first, and refuses to unmask him until he gets proper legal authority from the commissioner.
* StepIntoTheBlindingFight: Spider-Man shuts off the power to the prison under the pretenses that it'd be easier for them to escape under the cover of darkness. In reality, this so he can easily pick the prisoners off one-by-one without alerting the rest of the group.
