Visual On.
Video Journal
Of Betty Ross.
I've Got To Record This
Before Events Spiral
Out Of Control.
After Months
Of Disappointing Setbacks,
And Near Successes,
And Frequent Failures,
Doc Samson And I
Finally Completed
The Nutrient Bath.
Oh, None Too Soon.
My Dear Bruce,
Branded A Fugitive,
Is Out There
Searching Endlessly
For A Cure.
My Father's Hulkbusters
Hounding Him
Across The Country.
Oh.
If Doc Can Find The Hulk,
We Can End Our
Long Nightmare Forever.
We'll Use This
Nutrient Bath
To Physically Separate
Bruce From
From The Incredible Hulk.
Arrgghh!
Hmmph!
Ha Ha. Heh Heh Heh.
[Groans]
Oh!
In Position.
The Sonic Immobilizer
Is--Unh--
On-Line.
Power Converter Unit
Functioning.
I'm Good For 2 Shots
Before My Own
Gamma Bio-Energy's
Tapped Out,
So If This Doesn't
Drop Him Real Quick--
I'm Just A Panicked
Yell Away, Doc.
And Give Him A Sec.
He Looks Nice And Calm.
With Some Luck,
He Might Just
Transform Himself
Back To Banner,
Then This'll All Go Down
Smoother Than Silk Pie.
Hmm?
Aah!
Banner! Hulk!
No!
No! No!
Puny Banner
Inside Hulk!
No!
No!
Hulk Hate Banner!
Hulk Smash!
Arrgghh!
Uh-Oh.
The Hulk's Found
His Inner Self.
No Banner!
Banner Made Hulk!
No!
Rrraaahhh!

This Drops Ol' Doc
Into "E" For Empty.
Now Hulk Mad!
Argg--
Ohh!
Bearcat, The Hulk
Has Been Immobilized,
But Not For Long.
Fish Him Out
Downriver.
Roger, Doc,
But That Trophy's
Gonna Be A Tad Big
For Mountin' Over
The Fireplace.
Betty, Where The Blazes
Is Doc Samson?
He And Laroquette Sneaked Off
Unauthorized This Morning
With One Of My Choppers
And--
Wouldn't Know, Father.
But Doc's A Big Boy.
I'm Sure
He'll Bring It Back
In One Piece
Or Less.
Huh?
Jones?
What Are You
Doing Here, Boy?
Rick's, Uh--
He Just Came By To
Oh, I'm, Uh, Taking A Break.
I, Uh, You Know.
I've Been On The Road
Eating The Hulk's Dust
For Months Now.
It's Getting A Little
Hard To Swallow.
Yeah, Bitter Taste,
Isn't It?
Well, When Samson Shows,
Tell Him To Get
His Gamma Glutes
To My Office, Pronto.
Oh. Ha Ha Ha!
Ohh!
Think We Should've
Copped To The Truth?
Oh, Right.
By The Way, Daddy,
Samson's On His Way Here
With A Load Of Hulk.
You Don't Really Mind
If We Dunk Him In Our
Nutrient Bath Here,
Do You?
You See, We're Not Sure,
But We Think
We Can Separate
The Hulk From Bruce.
I Got You, But Sometimes
Forgiveness
Is A Lot Easier
To Ask For Than Permission.
Maybe, But Still,
My Father Is No Fool.
Betty And That
Dirt-Riding Punk Kid
Are Up To Something.
Keep An Eye On Them.
Yes, Sir.
Oh, Mama. I Am Delighted
To Be Almost Home
'Cause This Gamma Hero
Is Tapped Out.
Argghh!
Arrghh!
Hustle This Whirlybird
Back To The Next, Samuel,
'Cause The Catch Of The Day
Is Waking Up.
Radio Betty. Tell Her
To Kick In Plan "B."
Rrrr!
Easy. Easy.
Easy Now, Hulk.
Just Listen To Me.
Hulk Confused.
W-Where's Banner?
Puny Banner Is Hulk.
Wait, Wait, Wait, Wait.
I Know You're Confused,
But I'm No Mood Or Condition
To Dance With You
Like This.
I'm Trying To Help You.
I Can--
You Need My Help, Hulk.
I Know Banner's--
Hulk Hate Puny Banner!
Ohh! Unh!
Oh.
No, Hulk!
Doc's Not
Your Enemy, Man!
Betty, Rick?
Betty?
Oh, Hulk.
Banner Is Hulk.
We've Got To Move.
I'm Sure That
Self-Promoting Khaki-Lackey
Talbot Is On To Us.
Fallback Plan
Up And Running.
And Looming
In Every Shadow.
Oh, It's Hard
To Understand,
Hulk, I Know,
But We Can Help You.
You Don't Have To Have
Banner Inside You Anymore.
We'll Take Him Away.
Trust Us, Hulk.
Trust Me-- Betty.
I Won't Let Anyone
Hurt You Ever Again.
Hulk
[Chopper Engines Hum]
Ooh!
Nice Trailblazing, Betty.
Couldn't Have Done It
Without You.
Lock And Load, Boys.
Enemy!
No, Hulk!
Hang On, Big Guy!
You Can't Help Him
Racing Out There.
Stick To The Plan!
Yeah, You're Right.
[Whistles]
Rock On, Outcasts!
All Units,
Evasive Action!
Let The Infantry Boys
Clear This One Out.
Arrgghh!
Arrggh!
What?
Aah!
No!
Betty: Hulk, No!
Don't Hurt Him!
He's Just
A Weak Man
With A Small Mind.
Aah!
Stupid Human.
Puny Toy Army Man.
Now Come With Me.
Betty, This Is Insane.
The Hulk Is
A Freight Train, Glenn,
And You're Parking
On The Tracks.
[Rattles]
[Rattles]
Search This Entire Ridge.
They're Hiding The Hulk
Somewhere.
Oh, Betty,
You're Right.
The Hulk Is A Train,
A Runaway Train,
And You Need To Get Off
Before It Crashes.
Between The Hulk
And These Outcasts,
You Really Got
To Start Broadening Your
Social Circle, Kid.
Hey, When That Gamma Explosion
Blitzed Their Genes,
They Kind
Of Got A Little Lost
In The Circle Of Life.
But The Outcasts
Have Really Been There
For The Hulk And Me.
Betty: Hulk.
Unh. Come On, Hulk.
Rrrr.
There's Nothing
To Be Afraid Of.
Well, You Trust Me,
Don't You?
It's Just A Tunnel.
Puny Tunnel.
Hulk Smash Bigger.
No. [Chuckles]
Not A Good Idea.
UmLet's Just
Keep Moving.
Be Out Of Here
Before You Know It.
[Crash] Rrrr!
And Watch Your Head.
[Tires Screech]
Unh. All Clear.
Hmm. Well Now
This Certainly Shifts Things
Into A Higher Gear.
What Do You Mean Betty
Was Part Of All This?
She Was There.
Does That Really
Surprise You, Sir?
Unfortunately, No.
Ahh
Well, Whatever They're Up To,
I Want It Stopped.
You Got That, Major?
I'm On It, Sir.
Gabriel,
You're The Resident
007 Wannabe.
You Have Any Ideas About
Some Cockamamie Hulk Plan
Cooked Up
By Betty And Samson?
Oh, Not A Thing,
Thunderbolt Old Boy.
But I'll Be Sure
To Keep My Ear
To The Ground
Like A Good
Little Spy.
Now, Who Would Be
Drawing That Much Power
Off The Gamma Reactor
At This Time Of The--
Heh Heh Heh Heh.
That's What Us
Hulkbusters Call Busted.
Security, Talbot Here.
Meet Me At The Base Lab.
Doc, Antigamma Capacitors
Are Out Of Sync.
Take A Deep Breath, Betty.
I'll Recalibrate. See?
The Nutrient Bath Is Ok.
Rrrr.
Easy.
Easy, Big Fella.
All You Gotta Do
Is Step Up There,
And Let Us
Wash That Banner
Right Out Of Your Hair.
Hulk--
Hulk, Whoa. Whoa.
Hulk, Get A Grip, Guy.
Rrrr.
Think Of Betty.
Think Of Me.
Do It For Us,
Your Friends.
Oh, It Would Mean
So Much To Me, Hulk.
Rrrr.
Come On.
Courage, Buddy.
I'll Be Right Here
Watching Over You.
Initiating Stasis Sleep.
Rrrr.
Ok, Hulk.
Bruce
My Prayers
Are With You Both.
Here We Go.
Flooding Chamber.
Initiating Gamma Mitosis.
Cellular Separation
Is Taking Place.
It's Working.
Oh, Man, It's Working!
Bruce?
We're Almost There.
[Gasps]
This Is An Unauthorized
Experiment. Guards
Pull The Plug.
[Gasps] Glenn, No.
Where's The Hulk?
In There?
Glenn,
You Don't Know
What's Going On.
Don't Ruin This,
Please.
It's Our
Last Chance.
I Don't Know
What You've Done,
But Now, You'll Have To Live
With The Consequences.
We're Losing
The Imaging Matrix.
Stasis Generator
Off-Line.
Oh, Bruce.
With No Stasis,
They'll Drown In There.
Not On My Watch,
They Won't.
Please Make It.
Make It.
Come On.
I Don't Believe This.
Bruce. Bruce.
Oh, Rick, He's
[Gasps]
There's No Pulse.
Hulk.
[Grunts]
Come On, Bruce.
[Grunts] Breathe.
[Grunting]
Stand Down, Men.
The Hulk?
Well, How Did He
Where Did
Talbot, What In Blue Thunder
Is Going On?
I'll Tell You
What's Going On.
Your Toy Soldier Here
Interrupted The Experiment
Before Completion.
The Hulk's In Stasis,
But Banner's Heart
Arrested. Clear!
They Were Performing
An Undercover Experiment,
Sir.
This Is Your Responsibility,
Samson, And It's Going
To Cost You.
Deduct It
From My Severance Pay,
You Brain-Dead Lifer.
Confine Banner
To The Base Infirmary--
Bruce.
Oh Ho.
And Quarantine
That Monster.
My Leader,
I Have A Report.
Experiment? What Experiment?
Why Wasn't I Informed Earlier?
What Kind Of
An Incompetent Spy
Did I Create?
It Was A Covert Operation,
My Leader.
Completely Unsanctioned.
They Separated
The Hulk From Banner,
But The Hulk Still Lives.
The HulkAlive
And Without Banner.
Heh Heh. Well
Gargoyle! Gargoyle!
I Heard, Dear Leader.
Gargoyle, You Spineless
Lilliputian Reject.
It Seems You Chose
An Excellently
Opportune Time
To Come
Crawling Back To Me
After Your Pathetic Attempts
At, UhIndependence.
Yes, It Is So Good
To Be
Home, My Leader.
With The Hulk's Simple Mind
Unencumbered By Banner's
Troublesome Cognizance,
He's Actually Now A Much More
Suitable Subject
For The Transfer
Of His Gamma Power
Into Me.
Quickly,
You Gumptionless Gherkin.
Make Up For The Lost Time
You Squandered
And Finish Rebuilding
MyEnergy Siphon.
And To Think I Left
A Disease-Ridden
Deathbed For This.
Heh Heh.
Oh, Man. Why Is Life
So Stinking Complicated?
What's It Gonna Be Like
When You Wake Up?
Will You Still
Remember Me
Your Old Friend?
Ha Ha. We're Not
Waking Him Up
Ever.
He's Going Directly Into
Cryogenic Cold Storage.
No. We Promised Him
He'd Be Ok.
General, The Hulk May Be
Separated From Banner,
But He Is Of Banner,
With A Right To Live
Like Anyone.
And All Your Concerns
Are Unwarranted Anyway
Because He's Helpless Now,
His Mind An Absolute Blank.
Ho Ho. Is That Supposed
To Put Me At Ease,
Samson?
It Means He's
Even More Uncontrollable
Than Ever.
You're Missing The Point,
Sir.
We Can Start Over--
Train Him, Educate.
It's An Invaluable
Opportunity--
Nobel Prize Aspirations
Aside, Doctor,
That Menace
Will Not Be Walking
This Earth Again.
You Got That Right,
Thunderbolt Old Boy,
'Cause I'm Hauling
His Green Genes
Out Of Here
ForDisposal.
Disposal?! What Is It
With You People?
Doc, Don't
Let 'Em Do This.
I Don't Intend To.
We Need The Hulk
For Banner's Sake,
In Case The Experiment--
Yeah? On Whose Orders,
Gabriel?
Shield's.
Part Of The Terms
Of Head Honcho
Nick Fury's
Friendly Little Alliance
With The Pentagon.
You Catch Him
We Take Him.
I Was Never
Informed Of This.
Sorry, Thaddeus,
But That Proverbial
Other Shoe
We Hear So Much About--
Well, It Just Dropped.
Smells, Doesn't It?
Sometimes I Really
Hate This Job.
Hardest Part
Is Over, Bruce.
We're So Close,
So Very Close.
JustPlease Don't Give Up.
Don't Leave Me.
Hey.
Hi, Rick.
No Change, Huh?
No, Uh, Not Yet.
His Body's
Been Traumatized.
It'll Have To Recover
In Its Own Time.
Betty
IUh
Something's
Happened.
What? Is The Hulk
Did He--
Hulk's Alive,
But Everything
Went Wrong.
Wrong? What Are You
Talking About?
That Shield Toady
Gabriel.
He's Sending
The Green Guy
Rolling Down The Highway
In An Automated Convoy
To Some Kind Of Secret
Shield Disposal Site.
What? Can He Be Stopped?
That's What
I Asked Samson
Just Before He Escaped
From The Guards.
He Said, "Oh, Yeah."
Unh. Hyah!
Sorry. Time To Jettison
The Excess Baggage.
Unh! Typical.
[Pants]
Oh, No.
[Beeping]
What Happened?
Shield Mayday Signal.
The Automated
Transport Vehicle
Has Been Destroyed.
Mount Up A Level One
Strike Force.
If That Mindless Hulk
Reawakens,
Heaven Help Us All.
Unh.
[Grunts]
Rrrr!
Hulk, Wa-Wait A Minute.
Rrrr!
Rrrr!
Something Went Wrong.
Well, Then
Mr. Jones Is Gonna
Have To Make It Right.
Some Privacy, Please.
You Guys Are Really
Starting To Smother Me.
Huh?
Warm Night, Huh?
Ooh, Lose Something?
[Engine Revs]
Hulk: Rrrr!
What Have I Done?
What Nightmare Have I
Unleashed Upon The World?
Rrrr!
