"It's okay," Peter says after a moment. It has been years for him since all of that happened, and he finally put to rest that search for his father that lead to nothing (lead to more destruction). His father is the man that raised him, that died against his hands, Uncle Ben. Much as he wishes he could have known Richard Parker, he is so grateful to have been raised by his uncle and his aunt. "Uh, really, really far. Farther than anyone realized before... I found his work that he'd hidden away. It was ready to be tested on animals like that... that ready, and so... I did the thing and gave his work to the man he'd been working with before. Who couldn't wait, I guess. He'd lost his arm, and it was really... personal for him. Anyway, the side effects were too terrible even if the regrowing the limbs thing happened too."

There was no way to control which parts of the animal was transferred over in the cross-species thing at least not that they had found. Dr. Connors is still in jail as far as Peter knows.

And he knows he regrets it too, all of it like Peter does. He regrets not leaving well enough alone and all the destruction that that lead to.
