Partners in Danger Chapter 10: Lizard King - S4-E10

Plot hole: When Debra and Margaret arrive at the underground arena with the device that can revert the humanoid lizards to their original forms, they lose control of the device and it ends up in the hands of Ghila, who monologues that the humanoid lizards' existence was an accident and that she will use the device to return them to being regular lizards. Ghila had never seen this device before, nor did anyone tell her what its purpose was, so there's no way she could have known it was designed to reverse the mutations.

Partners in Danger Chapter 9: The Haunting of Mary Jane - S4-E9

Plot hole: Miranda Wilson states that after the accident on the movie set left her face disfigured, she hid in the catacombs by the bridge and almost died from her condition until Quentin Beck found her after he was released from prison. Beck is the one that caused the accident in the first place, so even if he only spent a month in prison, Miranda Wilson would have died from starvation or malnutrition - if not infection from her untreated facial disfigurement - long before Beck could have been released from prison and found her.

Sins of the Fathers Chapter 6: Framed - S3-E6

Plot hole: After Peter Parker is framed and arrested for selling government secrets to foreign organizations, he escapes police custody and goes home to retrieve his Spider-Man costume that was simply hanging in his dark room. If he was arrested for selling government secrets then surely the police would have searched his home and found his costume (as well as equipment) in the process. Since the police car was visible in front of his house, it seems very strange that police didn't search his home.

Trivia: Around the same time this show was airing, James Cameron was in the midst of developing a Spider-Man film which would have featured Sandman and Electro as the villains. Due to this plan, Sandman never appeared on this show despite being a prominent member of Spidey's rogue's gallery. Electro eventually made an appearance in the show's final season once it was determined that Cameron's film would never come to fruition, though the Electro that appeared on this show was a bastardized version of his comics counterpart.

Chosen answer: Felicia and Peter's friendship in this series was depicted as being on-again-off-again. At this point in the series they may have been on good terms. Plus Felicia is a wealthy socialite and Peter and Mary Jane's wedding was a big event due to Wilson Fisk paying for all of it.
