Mousie

"Mousie" is a fictional character who appeared in the Spider-Man episode Attack of the Octobot. Voiced by Anne-Marie Johnson, she is a West Indian-American taxi driver who is flagged down by a desperate Taina when Taina overhears Doc Ock's plans for the enslavement of Spider-Man and the eventual robbery of the Argon Matrix Laser. At first taking Taina to Jameson, their story is twisted by the press baron to make it seem as if Spider-Man has deliberately joined forces with Octavius; Mousie and Taina then pre-empt Jameson by enlisting the help of Mousie's fellow taxi drivers, who give blow-by-blow views of the SUV being driven by Spidey and Ock, eventually leading from the Wellington Foundry to another high-maintenance lab in which the laser is stored. Spider-Man, under the scrambler's influence, then takes Mousie hostage while Taina runs to the cab and radios the other cabbies. Mousie is then asked by Spider-Man about Taina; Mousie reminds him that "she thinks the world" of Spider-Man, and images of the conversation from the previous episode start to flood back into his head. As the Doctor decides to get rid of Mousie himself, Spider-Man stops the Doctor and welcomes the girl as the cabbies and police show up.

Mousie offers a free ride for Taina, but Taina decides to swing back to her room with Spider-Man.
