"The only constant between this and his own universe was Norman. Norman, who still didn’t look in the slightest like the businessman he had grown to be.

Norman, who was everything he had never been before, and yet in so many ways the exact same man that Otto had once loved."
Otto reflects on his past and his present, particularly where Norman Osborn is concerned.

Summary
"Dazed, Otto gazed up at the brown-haired figure standing in front of him, up to his middle in the water, looking as disheveled as he felt. A boy, really. Spider-Man. There had been three, before. One of them had even fixed his chip. He must have seen this man before. And yet, for the life of him, he couldn’t remember. Not his name, not his face. Just a churning sense of wrongness in his gut."
As Otto returns to his own time and place, he is confronted with a stranger's face and a difficult decision to make.
