01x10 - The Power of Dr. Banner

[bunniefuu]

At the headquarters
of General Thunderbolt Ross,

a tense, top-level conference
is taking place.

The reports come from reliable sources.

Bruce Banner
is behind the steel curtain.

But this is disastrous.
He's one of our top scientists.

He knows all our defence secrets.
He must be rescued at once.

Or silenced forever.

Sir, I wish to volunteer
to go behind the steel curtain

and do whatever must be done...

Reply negative, Major Talbot.

I know you warned us
that Banner was a security risk.

But before we risk
a dangerous international incident,

we must learn his exact whereabouts.

The answer they seek: an arms centre
far behind enemy borders.

You are our prisoner, Dr Banner,

and will give us the benefit
of your keen scientific abilities.

You're wasting your breath, Colonel.

We shall see.

You will rot in here
until you change your mind.

But under the strain of imprisonment,
Bruce Banner's blood pressure rises

until once again he comes
the mightiest mortal on earth,

the Incredible Hulk.

Crashing, crumbling
the enemy bastion,

scattering its terrified forces.

Run.

Everyone runs from Hulk.

But the enemy commandant
goes into instant action.

That's right.
Send tanks, heavy a*tillery,

everything in our arsenal.
Hurry!

I don't know how he got here,
but if I can catch him off guard,

I'll destroy him myself
with this proton g*n.

The Hulk is doomed.

Nothing can save you now.

Death to the green-skinned brute.

Die, monster.

Oh, no.

You try to k*ll Hulk.

Now it's Hulk's turn.

What terrible rampaging menace
has been let loose in our land?

The terrified commandant
searches for a hiding place

as the Hulk's fury mounts.

Then suddenly his pounding pulse rate
reaches the crucial point

which triggers the most amazing
transformation in medical history.

No, not now.

Mustn't stop being Hulk.

No.

Mustn't change now.

What could have happened to him?

Too late. I couldn't stop myself.

But now what chance have I as myself?

In the distance, a powerful armoured
force rumbles to the scene.

Onlookers stare bewildered,
as above, screaming jets

join the deadly cavalcade
heading for the arms centre,

where the exhausted scientist

who was the world's mightiest mortal
sags weakly to the ground.

If only I'd been able
to prevent the change.

If only I could have remained
as the Hulk.

Jets? They must be searching
for the Hulk.

They've spotted me.

They're blasting everything that moves.

Oh, no. No!

The K*llers! K*llers!

Rage explodes within Bruce Banner.

K*llers!

Again, the incredible chemical
change within his body begins

as a*tillery and rockets
blast around him.

But it is not Bruce Banner
who rises from the shattered wall.

It is again the rampaging Hulk.

Now the Hulk strikes back.

Puny insects.
They come to k*ll Hulk.

None can k*ll Hulk.

Did you say the base
is doing advanced arms research?

Dad, what is it?

We've learned
where your Bruce Banner is.

- He's working with the enemy.
- I knew he'd sell us out.

No. You're wrong, Glenn.

- Wrong.
- You've got to forget him, Betty.

We have to recognise the immeasurable
danger to our national security

if Banner isn't silenced and quickly.

If General Ross only knew how close
to endless silence Bruce Banner is,

with an armoured tank force
closing in on the Incredible Hulk.

Can the mighty green giant

withstand such a deadly
concentration of fire power?

Or will this finally be the end
of Bruce Banner?
