8 Awkward MCU Moments That Must Have Happened Off-Screen

2. Ned's Talking To - Spider-Man: Homecoming 

Avengers Endgame

Throughout the MCU, the main authority figures in place for the franchise’s superheroes have been Nick Fury and SHIELD, and Secretary Ross and the Sokovia Accords. Things however, were slightly different for Peter Parker, as he had to deal with his teachers first and foremost.

This not only applied to Peter, but to his man in the chair, Ned. Spidey’s best friend was absolutely desperate to be the webslinger’s sidekick, and when he finally managed it, helping Peter from the computer lab at school, he was interrupted by his teacher. Instead of admitting he was helping Spider-Man, Ned had to think on his feet, and told his teacher he was looking at porn.

This was hilarious at the time, but there is no way this was the end of that conversation. Surely this teacher would have had to escalate such an incident further. Was Ned sent to the principal’s office to have a discussion on why he shouldn’t watch porn in school?

In a school environment, surely it wouldn’t be long until the news got out to everyone else, and if Flash Thompson gave Peter a hard time for no reason at all, surely he’d have a thing or two to say about Ned being caught red handed like this.
