The Incredible Hulk Returns Page #3

Synopsis: It's been two years since the Hulk has surfaced, and Dr David Bruce Banner is on the verge of curing himself of the Hulk. A device he helped create, the Gamma Transponder, will rid him of his own Gamma radiation, among other uses. Enter Don Blake, a former colleague of Banner's, who is now in possession of a mystic hammer which can summon Thor, an ancient Viking warrior. When the Gamma Transponder is nearly stolen and Banner's girlfriend is kidnapped, Banner must abandon the hope of being cured and rely on the Hulk and Thor to save the day.

You just don't understand.

You don't know what

could happen, please.

Go away.

DONALD BLAKE:
Don't push him.

Leave you be, eh?

- Stop it.

- Sounds more like insult than hospitality.

- What are you doing, you jerk.

- An insult is...

- ...something I can always understand.

- Don't push him.

- Don't make me angry.

- He's braver than I thought, Blake.

- Stop it, dammit.

- Leave me... Ah.

[music playing]

- Oh, he was spared.

- DONALD BLAKE:
Good God.

[music playing]

Roar.

Roar.

Roar.

You're dead.

No Thor. That's David.

Give me the hammer.

Raah.

Give me the hammer.

THOR:
He wants a fight,

I'll give him one.

Roar.

Thor don't.

No!

Roar!

[music playing]

THOR:
Agh!

Roar, roar, roaaaaar!

Roaar!

This will send you back

to hell you ugly troll.

Roar!

No!

Hah.

Hah.

I think I made him angry.

THOR:
Odin's beard; for an

ugly troll, you're a fighter.

I'd be your friend.

What do you say?

Odin wills it.

[sirens]

THOR:
Friends you and I.

Roaar.

Roooaaaar.

Blake, the hammer.

No way.

I'll have enough trouble

getting out of here myself.

The hammer you

limp spined rabbit.

Save your breath and leave.

[sirens]

[music playing]

Easy Banner.

Don't be frightened.

I'm here as ally, not enemy.

Blake sent me to sniff you out.

Gift from Odin

this nose of mine,

never fails, always find my man.

Where is Blake?

My master waits in

his metal chariot.

That way.

I'll follow you.

Thor found you.

He found me, yes.

Did you doubt I would?

I'm really glad

you're OK, David.

Everything turned upside down,

and I... and I... it's my fault.

That's right.

I know, but I...I didn't know

the mechanics of your problem.

I didn't know if...

if... if you were going

to stay that way or

for how long or...

I'll explain all this to you later.

Let's just get out of here, OK?

OK.

I suppose I'm leaving now?

Good guess.

You've caused enough trouble.

I found him, didn't I?

Watch my lips.

Go.

The hound returns meekly

to be to the kennel of Odin.

Fine battle we had, eh, Banner.

Me and your troll.

Well?

Odin.

DONALD BLAKE:
We made the

morning papers, page two.

One good thing in our favor,

the media is portraying it as

a publicity gimmick cooked up by

your Mr. Lambert to a...

promote the transponder.

Yeah, so I see.

Police spokesman,

Captain Derick Pile minced no words

when he called the incident

an obvious publicity ploy.

Well, we got lucky this time.

DONALD BLAKE:
Well, at least now

I understand why you're dead.

- Look David,

- I'm taking myself

and my problem out of

your life permanently.

What happened last like wasn't Thor's

fault, it was yours, and yours alone.

David you're not being fair to me.

For two years now, two years,

this change of mine hasn't occurred.

And do you know why?

Because I've stayed away

from people like you.

People who start trouble

and then run away.

Well, you're not running

away this time, Don.

This time you're going

to help wipe up the milk

that you spilled.

Do you understand?

Yeah, I understand.

DAVID BANNER:
How badly

was the lab damage?

Well, the...the transponder

itself wasn't touched,

but the computer banks

were hit pretty bad.

OK, there it is then. We have a lot of

work to do and very little time to do it.

You'll give me a hand, and

then we'll call it even.

You can stay at my apartment.

Oh, yeah, what

about your friend?

My friend stays put

until I call him.

And he goes back

when I put him back.

The wrath of God in a bottle.

Yeah.

What are you going to tell the

Institute about last night?

Well, that I wasn't there

and that I left before the ah...

incident occurred.

This kind of thing has happened to

me before. I've always just...

...disappeared.

But not this time.

The transponder is the closest

thing I've come to a cure.

So I'm going to take a

chance for a normal life.

Besides, no one's taking

this seriously. this time.

ZEKE LAMBERT:
Yes, yes,

Mark, I know I did, Yes.

All right, it was a

formal resignation.

And I... yeah, yeah,

I... I said that.

Well, you know, I...

I... I said that too. Right.

Huh.

Did I say that?

Ne... Never mind, Mark,

listen, listen it's him.

I know it's him.

I mean it's the Hulk, Mark.

Who would know better than I do?

I chased him for nearly four years.

OK, listen, listen, Mark,

supposing, supposing

I apologize for that supercilious

...editor.

All right, I will sit down and

write a sniveling, whimpering,

cowering letter of apology to Mr. Foster, if...

if he will promise to

put me back in harness again.

OK, all right.

No, I...i will.

I will, Mark. Thank you.

Now Mark,...

I want my full expense account.

Nice try, Lambert.

Yeah, right.

You read the papers?

Yeah. The gambit transponder and the

brain it created will be worth a fortune.

So the you'll do it,

take the contact?

I need your help here, LeBeau.

Yeah, you do.

Very well, I'll handle the contract

for one third of the percentage.

Ah.

You're badly out of shape, Lambert.

No challenge at all.

It's not my game.

What is your game, Zachary?

Complicated brotherly betrayal

or simple revenge?

I have my reasons for

what I'm doing, LeBeau.

They don't have anything

to do with our deal.

Wrong.

They have everything to

do with it, everything.

I won't push ya, but I'm

going to tell you one time.

We shake hands on this, we go

all the way, no turning back,

no cold feet, no sudden

religious conversions.

Or what?

Or what?

Or what?

Okay.

My organization kidnapped the transponder

and this David Banyon also within the week

for one third percentage

of the final sale price

or ransom,

whichever comes first.

We got a deal, Mr. Lambert?

Fine.

All settled.

It's 17 serves 9.

Ready?

I'm going to win

this point, dammit.

That's the spirit, Lambert.

That's the spirit.

You can't win the game unless

you'd rather die than lose it.

All right, get that

panel off of there.

OK, come on, move.

Here we go.

[voice on intercom paging]

Come on.

[voice on intercom paging]

[voice on intercom paging]

Well, whatever it was that

smashed through this lab,

we were extremely lucky.

Everything seems repairable.

Ah, what really

happened here, David?

I don't know.

I wasn't here.

Oh, that's... that's right, I forgot.

You were ah... you left the lab early.

You had dinner with a friend, and

the friend's name was Donald Blake.

And Mr. Blake is now helping us

repair the damage to the computer.

Hard at it too.

Nose to the grindstone.

Another one.

Another what, Zach?

Another one like you, David.

Another one from

nowhere who's ah...

very good at what he does,

but totally unconnected, alone.

Hey, I'm sorry, David.

That's always been my big problem,

too damn curious.

Morning.

Third degree, huh?

Well, it doesn't

matter in a few days.

You'll step back in

front of the death ray.

Life ray for me, I hope.

I hope so, too, Dave.

I really do.

At the same time, I feel kind of jealous,

like a... a...

like a leper who finds

another leper to be pals with.

And then his pal

goes and gets cured.

Well, using your analogy

and sticking with it,
