01x01 - Tomb of the Unknown Hulk

Post by bunniefuu »

Hi, this is Stan Lee. When we

think of the sun, we think of beaches and

fun outdoors, but sometimes there are

giant storms of the sun. Storms that

hurl waves of radiation towards the

helpless Earth. Right now, this

radiation is encircling America's most

powerful army base, where a dangerous

experiment is now in progress. This

shielding should protect the Parium 99

from the cosmic rays.

Now, Betty.

OK, let's back off. If those rods of

Perium 99 get any closer, they could

destroy the entire base. Well, I'm

glad we have more peaceful plans in store

for it.

Bruce, the power's failing.

Use backup power.

Look out, Mark.

got to get those rods apart!

Gravity!

Wow! That was close. The

cosmic rays are even getting through the

lab's shielding.

Excellent! The cosmic rays have

isolated the base from radio

communication. Now is the

time to strike! Soon, the world's

most powerful expl*sive will belong to...

Doctor Octopus!

We're talking with Rainbow Murphy,

president of Organic Orbit, the famous

all-natural drive-through food stands.

Ms. Murphy, will you tell us the secret

of your success?I'm

ready. Oh, wow, for

sure. I mean, like, when I

started this gig, the first thing I did

was... I don't believe this. Why

me?

My sign! My beautiful

sign! How many customers will

we have without advertising?How many

customers do we have with advertising?

None! Look at the base!

Maybe I better take a drive over there.

What for?Maybe

General Ross might be afraid of the dark.

Just once, I'd like a straight answer.

Hey, Doc.

Just thought I'd...

Bruce, what is it?Get

out of here, baby, please.

Anesthetic, Rick. Quickly! Put me to

sleep before I change.

No. Fight it, Doc! Fight it!

Hang on, Doc. Hang on!

The crisis is over. Bruce Banner has

triumphed over the Hulk. For

now. Whoa, that was too

close for comfort. But what caused the

change to begin?Rick isn't sure that

he wants to know.

Commence operation overthrow!

Who's there?

One zap of a paralysis beam is

all it takes for Doc Ock's men to

begin their invasion.

Huh, it's just you. Come here, cat.

What are you doing there, soldier?

Ten-hut! You're a disgrace,

soldier! Straighten that tie! Tuck in

that shirt tail!

And what's this?

You're not a regular soldier! You...

No!

And that's how I caught it. Well, it

seems to disrupt axon transmission to the

muscles, but I can't figure out how to

reverse the effect. Let Banner look at it

then. I think Bruce has been working too

hard, Dad. This is an emergency, Betty.

Let's go see him now.

Doc, are you OK?Dizzy.

Low blood sugar. What happened?

Why'd you start to change?

Uh oh, here comes trouble.

Out the back way!

Banner!

The Parium's still here. But where's

Banner?

You won't get far, Banner.

It has to be the cosmic rays. They're

triggering the gamma energy in my cells,

causing me to change at random. You mean

you can become the Hulk for no reason?At

any time?Exactly. Oh,

terrific. Follow that jeep. Yes,

sir, Major Talbot. What do we

do?It took all the anesthetic gas we had

to stop the Hulk before. That's why we're

headed for Cougar Cave. There's a command

post fallout shell. Well, that should

hold the hulk of anything, Will. I hope

so, Rick. We're being followed.

Oh, no! It's happening! Rick!

I can't stop it!

It happened again. The cosmic radiation

has struck. And this time, Bruce

Banner can't stop the terrible

transformation.

Take it easy, Hulk. Uh oh, here comes the

army. Look! The Hulk!

After him!

closer!

ohh In his mindless rage, the Hulk lashes

out, shattering an anti-invasion radar

disc as if it's a toy. Run!

Run from Hulk! Come on, Hulk.

We got places to go. Hulk

follow Rick. I was hoping you'd say that.

Their perimeter scanning system has

failed. Excellent. There

is nothing to stop my squad of men

now. Nothing can stop me now from

invading the base and taking the

Perium 99.

Striking quickly and ruthlessly, the

metal-armed menace cripples the army

post's power supply.

What's happening?We're under attack!

Something's happening on the base.

Rita, where are you going?There's

something wrong at the base. I'm really

worried about Rick.

This way, Hulk.

Wow, someplace, huh, Hulk?

Hulk Light Cave. like quiet.

Glad to hear it.

Let's look inside, Hulk.

Room small. Too small

for Hulk.

Sorry, Hulk. It's for your own good. When

you talk banner again, you'll agree--Hulk

trusted you. You trick, Hulk!

No, Hulk, stop!

Phew, that was close.

At last, the Hulk is imprisoned behind

tons of concrete in the most impregnable

vault ever built.

How could you take over my base so easily?

Very simple, General. I had

inside help. The only one that could

have done this is... Banner!

Not a chance!

Ohh You picked a bad time to

visit the base, young woman. In a few

hours, I shall use the Pentium 99

to conquer the United States!

He stopped.

Rick, welcome back, Doc. Thank you, Rick.

Did anything happen?Well, as a matter of

fact, you sent the US Army back one Jeep.

I'll bet the soldiers are still running.

I knew something like this would happen.

We'll need supplies, Rick. The cosmic

rays could last a long time. Gotcha. I'll

be back with takeout from Rios.

Rick, where's Rita?She's

not here. She went to the base hours ago

to look for you. The switchboard

doesn't answer and the lights are out.

Get in. Let's check it out.

What's going on, Rick?Nothing. That's

what bothers me. If there were some way

to sneak onto the base.

ohh Rio, you okay?Si, I'm

okay. Way to go,

Rio. That's our ticket inside.

Come, we must find Rita. My

plan is simple but brilliant.

I can use an army m*ssile to carry this

satellite high above the earth. From

there, I can broadcast Parium 99 with

these anywhere on the continent. The rays

will cause mutations. Humans

will become beast-like creatures,

monsters.

Look at that. It's got as many arms as

the boss. Yeah, come on, let's get Ross

and the others like he wants. Did you

hear that?There's only one guy I know of

with more than two arms. Doctor

Octopus. Oh, we've got trouble.

You follow them. I have an idea.

It's almost breakfast time. Even the

enemy must eat.

I'll help you, General.

Get out of the way, Major! You're

blocking my shot!

You okay, Rita?Just fine!Now?

Quit thinking, Ned. You deserve a medal

for that. I do?Well, if you

insist. It's no time for ticker-tape

parades yet, Major. Right. We've got to

stop Dr. Octopus.

Oh no! This is much too bland!

A little curry?Some chili

rojo?

I love my work!

Dr. Octopus, the prisoners have escaped!

What?Alert them in! Ohh

Most of them are sick from something they

ate at breakfast. What?You!

I still have you as a hostage!

No, you don't!

Stop! You can't escape me!

Dr. Octopus is in the lab!

There he goes! Get him!

Mijita! My daughter!

Oh, Daddy!

Come on! Octopus is getting away!

There he is! Too late, you fools!

In 15 minutes, the m*ssile will launch.

Nothing can stop it!

Maybe not, but we can stop you. You

think so, you?What is

living his name?

Help! Help

Doctor Octopus!

No, I have to see more!

I have to get out of here! As his memory

begins to fade... One last thought

burns into Banner's mind. Return

to base!

You have caused me considerable

trouble! Look!

Oh no!

You try to hurt old

ohh

Nothing can stop us!

No! Not now! I'm too

close to victory!

Look at that!

I still win, you moronic

monster!

Stop the rocket,

Hulk!

Nobody laugh at home.

The cosmic rays die down. The

danger is over at

last. Now that radio

communications have been restored, we'll

have some federal agents out here soon to

pick up Dr. Octopus.

Rick, where's Bruce?Do you know?Yeah.

Follow me. He's paralyzed, just

like the rest of the men were. He sure

is. It ought to be wearing off pretty

soon, though. So, you've been down here

all the time. That should make Dad pretty

mad. He thought he had you this time.

But right now, while I've got you and you

can't run away...

How's your arm, Rick?Not bad, but I won't

be playing in the major leagues for a

while. Rick, I... I'm

sorry. Relax. I told you it was an

accident. Do you understand now why I

worry about you and Betty and

and everyone close to me?Can't stop you

from worrying, Doc, but you can't stop me

from sticking around. It's my fault that

you're the Hulk. I won't run out on you

now or ever.
