Flamboyant TV chef Erasmus Brumble (Coogan) along with his director and long-term partner Paul (Rudd), are happy going through life playing as hard as they work. But suddenly they have to decide whether to grow-up or continue down their well-trodden path, when Erasmus’s estranged grandson, Bill (played by Jack Gore), unexpectedly turns up at their door, after his father is taken away to serve time in prison.

Having another mouth to feed can always come with its strains, but the couple’s fears that they are not yet cut out to be devoted parents become apparent very quickly, with their lavish social lifestyle (and an extensive erotic film collection) getting in the way of their duties as responsible guardians. As unsuited as this small family may initially seem, the loving bond they eventually form is threatened to be broken when Bill’s father warns he’ll take him away upon his release from jail.

Marvel’s “Captain America: Civil War” finds Steve Rogers leading the newly formed team of Avengers in their continued efforts to safeguard humanity. But after another incident involving the Avengers results in collateral damage, political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability, headed by a governing body to oversee and direct the team. The new status quo fractures the Avengers, resulting in two camps—one led by Steve Rogers and his desire for the Avengers to remain free to defend humanity without government interference, and the other following Tony Stark’s surprising decision to support government oversight and accountability.

We see Peter Parker back in his room after the fight checking out some new gadget he (presumably) got from Tony Stark. It is a projector of some sort emitting red light towards the ceiling. Aunt May enters the room with some ice in a towel, and Peter quickly folds his arm to hide the gadget. He mentions that he got a beating from someone named Steve from Brooklyn and that the other guy was huge. After Aunt May leaves the room, he continues to project the gadget towards the ceiling and the camera pans up, to show a Spider-Man logo with some text and what appears to be buttons or something similar around it. The screen fades to black and we see the message: Spider-Man will return.
