Actually use Spider-Man…. Or hell, just Peter Parker to give Stark a run for his money. Annoy the hell out of him at say a regional science fair… lol
They could even have Tony win due to Peter being absentee, his project is setup but because… (he’s Spider-Man and is off fighting) he isn’t there to present, Stark who should be 2nd, wins first…
Of course Tony would know he should be 2nd place…
Yeah yeah yeah… I know… wishful thinking.
