Also, to add onto this because I literally discovered this seconds after seeing this post completely on accident. This post inspired me to go watch the show on yt and I was just scrolling through the compilation video of the first season and somehow happened to stumble on this specific scene.
Like, his face is illuminated by harsh shadows, he’s speaking in the same voice, he’s making the same face, all while talking about unmasking the Green Goblin. This was foreshadowing.
I think what this scene says most of all though is that he always wanted to be discovered. He always wanted to be unmasked. Because if we were supposed to actually believe Norman Osborn wasn’t him than as the audience, then there’s no way he would have been gleeful about it being “too late” to unmask the vigilante who’s stealing all his equipment and putting his company in shambles.
His testament about the mask being your real face and your face being a mask was supposed to be an admission to wanting his literal face to be discovered this entire time so he can live out life with his true one.
So yeah, I’d definitely say it’s a relief for him. More then.
And the thing is… I’ve literally never thought of this scene before? Lol. I don’t even remember it. Like I swear I found it completely on accident right after seeing this post.
I love the little smirk Norman has when his identity is found out; It speaks volumes because of how it feels atypical to the character, but not to his alter-ego. The way “Norman” would act would probably be more… grim frustration, a snarl. But instead we have a cheeky “Oh look at that! I’ve been caught!” smile that is so much more Green Goblin. He went through all that trouble to hide his identity but when it’s found out, he may as well revel in the chaos it causes because why not?
The logical Norman side should be frustrated at being exposed, but the goblin who loves to torment others over anything else digs into how much turmoil it’s inflicting on his son. There’s a deep-down playfulness that wanted to be caught, it’s the same attitude that led to Norman acting like that at all because he always wanted to, and he wanted to not have to bother with any mask. Dare I say there’s relief.
It really sells that Norman and the Green Goblin are the same, that we get to see Gobby through Norman’s face instead of abstracting one as the other. “And you saw me limp away” plus his final line in the show really lean into Norman with Green Goblin mannerisms and I’d have loved to see the character just go full ham and rhymes and poetry to disperse any doubt. Make it clear it wasn’t the serum that affected his behavior, it was the mask, which ironically made him go mask-off. I bet the writers had a moment like this planned, possibly for the final scenes of the character, before the cancellation.

My name is Mohamed Saqr, and just a short time ago, my family and I were living a life full of hope and stability in Gaza. We had worked hard for everything we had – multiple homes, a farm, and several successful businesses. Life was good, and we were building a future for ourselves. My brother, 24, recently married, and we were both proud of the lives we had built. But all of that changed in a heartbeat when the war began on October 7th.
this is my brother, Motaz Saqr, who had to undergo surgery in his stomach due to the pollution we are exposed to daily.
This is my house, before and after, im newly married and this was the house we were supposed to live in but the war happened and it turned into rubble since the war.
Since that day, everything we knew has been taken away from us. We were forced to flee our homes, leaving behind everything we had worked for. We lost our homes, our farm, and our businesses. Now, my family and I are constantly on the move, trying to find safety and shelter wherever we can. The fear we live with every day is unimaginable. We move from one camp to another, never knowing when or where the next attack might come. My brother’s children cry every night, scared of the loud explosions that seem to be getting closer with each passing day.
This is my brother’a daughter, this is the condition we are living in during the war.
Every day is a struggle just to survive. Food, water, and medicine are scarce, and we never know if the next meal will come. My wife, my brother, his wife, and their children are doing everything we can to stay strong, but it’s getting harder by the day. We’ve lost so much, but the hardest part is the constant fear for our lives. We’ve already witnessed too much destruction, and we know the situation could get even worse.
We started this GoFundMe because we need help. We need funds not only to survive but also to try and escape Gaza before it’s too late. We are asking for your support – anything you can give will make a huge difference in our lives. Your generosity could help provide food, clean water, and medical supplies, and it might even help us find a way out of this nightmare. Please, if you can, help us. Every donation brings us one step closer to safety and a chance at rebuilding our lives.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I’m not in the Monster High or Monster As Teenager adjacent fandoms, but has anyone done “Daughter of The Thing (1982)” and it looks like just a teenaged girl version of Kurt Russell? No tendrils, no tentacles, just a girl with this exact fit and hair
She swears that she isn’t the daughter of The Thing (1982). She’s a totally normal human you guys. She shouldn’t even be at this school. She likes normal human things like not having her blood tested.
