The Incredible Hulk (1978) s02e13 Episode Script
A Solitary Place
Forget it, McGee, you'll never find anybody in that wild jungle.
(THUNDER CLAPPING) (SCREAMING) Did you know it was here? Is that why you wanted me to leave? We're going to Mexico.
Come on.
None of this will bring Cindy back.
(SPEAKING SPANISH) A green giant! A green giant! (GROWLING) NARRATOR: Dr.
David Banner, physician, scientist.
Searching for a way to tap into the hidden strengths that all humans have.
Then, an accidental overdose of gamma radiation alters his body chemistry.
And now, when David Banner grows angry or outraged, a startling metamorphosis occurs.
(ROARS) The creature is driven by rage and pursued by an investigative reporter.
Mr.
McGee, don't make me angry.
You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.
The creature is wanted for a murder he didn't commit.
David Banner is believed to be dead.
And he must let the world think that he is dead until he can find a way to control the raging spirit that dwells within him.
(ROARS) DAVID: More than four weeks.
32 days.
A record of sorts.
The longest period of time that I've been free of the creature's rage.
It seems isolation in an uninhabited place like this is the best solution.
I can't hurt anything or anyone here.
The creature continues to be an uncontrollable force within me, potentially very dangerous.
It has never killed, but who can say that someday its rages will not result in the death of innocent people? I find myself missing Caroline more and more.
Her warmth, her understanding of my special condition were qualities I'm not likely to find ever again.
With this ring, I thee wed.
With this ring, I thee wed.
I wish I'd had more time to study and work with her before she died.
I want you to take a deep, cleansing breath and we'll begin.
I try to remember all that she showed me, but she was much more adept at self-hypnosis than I.
You will be an objective observer, totally uninvolved and unemotional.
Now tell me what you remember.
The trouble is that without Caroline's help, I can't continue alone.
And if I ever hope to control the creature, my awareness of its actions could be vital.
(MARIACHI BAND PLAYING) La Rosa! (SPEAKING SPANISH) How much longer is this gonna take? Relax, lady, just a couple of other people, that's all.
(SPEAKING SPANISH) Come on, Raul, those two guys in San Diego swear that they saw the creature in this area.
Now, there're got to be some other witnesses.
Mr.
McGee, those two bums were in San Diego because I ran them out of La Rosa.
And let me tell you something else, they probably tried to roll a tourist, and when he was stronger than them, they made up this story, you know, about a giant green man to make them look good.
No, I've seen the creature myself.
(CHUCKLES) Well, then, my friend, that's your problem.
Excuse me.
Wait a minute.
(SPEAKING SPANISH) Wait a minute.
(COUNTING IN SPANISH) No more unscheduled stops, I hope.
No, none until we get to San Carlos.
(SPEAKS SPANISH) (ENGINE STARTS) (CAMERA CLICKING) Raul! I gotta catch that bus.
Can't you see I got work to do? Work can always wait.
Right.
Come, my friend, I'll take you in my private limousine.
(HORN HONKING) (RAUL YELLING IN SPANISH) Why are we stopping? I guess we got another passenger.
Out here? What's the hurry, lady? The people in that little village you're headed for, they ain't going nowhere.
I'm Jack McGee from The National Register.
I don't need any cash registers.
You had a passenger, an American girl sitting right there.
Where'd she go? Quien sabe? Hey, close the door! That girl! Where is she? Who? What girl? Dr.
Gail Collins.
First, a green giant, now, a girl doctor? She must've gone into the woods.
Come on! Well? Forget it, McGee, you'll never find anybody in that wild jungle.
I'm paying.
Gracias, but not this time, amigo.
Come on, Raul! Listen, McGee, you want to go play cowboys and Indians in the mountains, be my guest.
I'm going back to La Rosa.
Adios and good luck! Ah, so you decided to be smart, huh? There was nobody around, so I helped myself to your medical supplies.
What happened? I hurt my knee.
I used to be an athletic trainer for a football team.
Suppose I check it out for you, okay? My bus broke down.
I got restless, decided to go (GASPS) I decided to go exploring.
Not a very wise decision, as it turns out.
I got lost.
You certainly did.
Does that hurt? I'm sure it's going to be all right.
In a few days.
Yes, well, I don't see any torn ligaments.
Of course, you could have done some damage to the cartilage.
Well, it still hurts too much to walk on.
Ah.
Are you hungry? Would you like something to eat? Well, I am thirsty.
All right, I'll fix you some tea.
Thank you.
Yeah.
(CLATTERING) (YAWNS) (GROANS) Good morning.
Good morning.
I must have slept Fifteen.
(CHUCKLES) Want something to eat? Thanks.
And after breakfast we can head down to the main road.
It's quite a ways yet.
(EXCLAIMS) I can barely walk.
I certainly can't attempt to hike through the hills.
(EXCLAIMS) Don't you think you're overreacting for a relatively minor injury? My diagnosis is that I can't make it back to the main road.
At least not yet.
My name is Gail.
Gail Crenshaw.
David Bailey.
And I'm a doctor.
So if you want a second opinion, you'll have to find a second doctor.
The radical technique for severing nerve fibers to reduce pain in terminal patients.
The Collins Neurotomy Procedure.
Are you Dr.
Gail Collins? Yes.
What are you doing here? I was on my way to Los Buellos.
Well, it's not exactly a A resort.
I mean it's a little remote, isn't it, for someone with your specialty? Yes.
I just wanted to get away for a while.
You know, I really would like to stay for a few days until my knee is better.
Now I could pay you what I would have paid at a motel.
(CHUCKLES) Please.
Come on, I'm a respectable professional, you know.
A doctor.
Mmm-hmm.
On the cover of national magazines.
Oh, very famous.
But you don't know anything about me.
Well, I know that any self-respecting villain would have made a suspicious move by now.
My knee really does hurt.
I'll try not to interfere with whatever you're doing out here.
All right.
You can stay for a couple of days until your knee heals.
Thank you.
Cup of coffee? Thank you.
Now, you cooked, I'll wash.
Doctor, heal thyself.
Have you seen this? Yeah, it's her! Now, we're going to Mexico.
Come on.
Wait a minute, Dad.
We just can't leave.
Look, Jack will take care of the yard.
Now will you come on? The police will bring her back.
Joe.
Joey, we can't count on anybody to bring her back.
Now, we're going.
Dad, please.
None of this will bring Cindy back.
No more talk.
Now it's my turn to play God! (GRUNTS) These things are set all over the hills, and I hate to see anything trapped.
All right, let's see how many more we can find.
Come on.
(WHISTLING) Just taking care of the sleeping arrangements.
How do you like it? Look, there's enough room in my place.
I think we can have privacy.
Oh, I don't want to crowd you.
Besides, it's been a long time since I've done anything that wasn't measured in micro-millimeters.
Yeah, well, it doesn't look like it's going to last very long.
It's not supposed to.
Remember? Mmm-hmm.
Dinner? Ooh, accepted.
Good.
Your place or mine? Uh Yours.
I thought that would be the case.
Ah, dessert! (GIGGLES) See? Oh, that's marvelous.
Thank you! I mean, your knee.
What? Your knee.
No limp, therefore no pain, which would indicate probably no injury.
Oh.
Well, the pain comes and goes.
Oh, it does? Comes and goes.
Well, don't I get some kind of kudos for the berries, at least? I mean, my share of the food and all? Well, certainly.
Of course, those are elderberries, you know.
So, we can't eat them right away because Well, they're not ripe, and you can't separate the pith from the berry, so they're poison.
Sorry.
Yeah? Mmm-hmm.
Well, so much for dessert.
Ooh.
Comes and goes.
Comes and goes.
(SPEAKS SPANISH) You know, I haven't been camping since I was a little girl.
My dad used to take me when we lived in Michigan.
And they discovered what an extraordinary brain was hidden under my pigtails.
Well, a good brain is a gift.
Maybe.
But it's all a game of genetic chance.
A toss of the dice and you're a genius, or the village clown.
No mystique, no cosmic meaning.
Just an accident of nature.
(EXCLAIMS) What happened? Oh, boy.
I got a splinter and it's pretty deep, too.
(GRUNTS) Look, sterilize that over the fire, then cut it out for me, will you, please? Gail? What's wrong? (E.
K.
G.
BEEPING) (E.
K.
G.
DRONING) DAVID: What's wrong? Gail, what's wrong? How's your hand? It's fine, see? David, I'm sorry I couldn't help you with your hand.
Hey, come on.
It's a good thing, isn't it? It wasn't a matter of life and death.
GAIL: I'm trying to tell you, Mr.
Malone, it's a matter of life and death.
I'm telling you, you are not touching my daughter.
She's in terrible pain, Mr.
Malone.
She'll die without an operation.
And I say she'll die with it! They're gonna put you away where you can't hurt people anymore! Murderer! Dad, come on.
I was guilty.
Gail.
Hey, Gail.
You want to tell me about what happened? Good night, David.
Good night.
No, no, no, senor.
I didn't know how many there were.
(SPEAKING SPANISH) RAMON: I saw the man and the woman but there may have been more.
McGEE: It's got to be her.
I can get you there, but it's going to cost you.
It always does.
Business is business.
Come on, let's go.
Take care.
My traps What about my traps? Eh? (MUTTERS IN SPANISH) Oh, these roads are nothing but dead ends.
Give me the other map.
Dad, we're lost.
Let's go back, all right? Go back? What's wrong with you? She was your sister.
Don't you realize what that doctor did to her? Cindy was sick.
Fine, but she wouldn't be dead if that doctor hadn't cut her head open.
And we're gonna find her.
(THUNDER RUMBLING) Gail! Gail! Storm came from out of nowhere.
(WIND HOWLING) Nice way to start a day.
Thanks.
DAVID: The wind is tearing the canvas away! (THUNDER RUMBLING) Gail! (SCREAMING) (ROARING) (EXCLAIMS) (ROARING) (WHIMPERING) (SCREAMING) David! David! David! (SCREAMING) David! (THUNDER RUMBLING) (BIRD SQUAWKING) (THUNDER RUMBLING) GAIL: David! Gail! Are you all right? David! Yes.
Are you all right? It was freezing.
David, I don't understand what's happening here! Suddenly everything started crashing on top of me! And this thing, this creature, saved my life! And I screamed and reacted like a terrified child! David, I've seen cellular mutations and birth defects and everything that nature can do to distort the body, but this I know it sounds unbelievable, but it happened.
It's all right.
It's all right, Gail.
It's okay.
You believe me? Yes, I do believe you, Gail.
Did you know it was here? Is that why you wanted me to leave? (THUNDER RUMBLING) David (EXCLAIMS) Gail, it's all right.
It's okay, it's okay.
I understand my own clinical world, but you put me up against something that doesn't fit in that sterilized atmosphere and I hide in a corner.
"There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, "than are dreamed of in your philosophy.
" Hamlet in the Baja? Right.
Who are those words of wisdom meant for, you or me? Both of us.
(THUNDER CLAPPING) Hey, amigo.
Americano? (DOG BARKING) Gracias.
Say, you Jack McGee? Yeah, I am.
We We understand you're looking for a couple of volunteers to find that Collins girl.
Yeah, that's right.
Can you both handle four-wheel drive? Whatever you got, we can handle.
You got it.
Super.
So, how old was your patient? Twenty-one.
She'd been suffering from chronic headaches since she was 17.
She was in almost constant pain by the time I saw her, and escalating in intensity.
Brain aneurysm, huh? Of the medial meningeal artery.
I felt that it was absolutely necessary to operate immediately before the artery burst.
Cindy's father wouldn't consent.
He wanted a second opinion.
I didn't feel that there was enough time for that.
So I went to the patient herself.
She signed the release.
Afterwards, Cindy's father claimed that the signature was a forgery.
My forgery.
You're wrong.
You've played God with my daughter! And you won't get away with it! You will not get away with doing that to my little Cindy.
So what happened at the trial? Gail? It was just the inquest.
First long day, more days sure to follow with questions and answers.
Cindy's father was sitting just a few feet away.
People staring.
Cameras clicking.
I distinctly remember telling Dr.
Collins that under no circumstances did she have my consent.
That signature was illegal.
She made her sign that paper.
She killed my daughter.
That night I ran away.
So you judged Dr.
Collins, found her guilty, pronounced sentence.
Exile, isolation? That's right.
Because I was guilty, guilty of too much pride and arrogance.
Maybe that's difficult for you to understand, not being a doctor.
I was relying on my instincts and my diagnostic skills.
But why not? That was my specialty.
It just didn't work out.
Gail, surgeons deal with death as well as life.
When Cindy Malone came to you, she was dying.
And I don't I don't believe you tried to save her out of pride.
I think you tried to save her because you're a surgeon and a human being, and you didn't succeed because you're a surgeon and a human being.
This is all very serious talk.
Come on.
We've still got a lot of repair work to do.
Come on.
Are you kidding, Raul? These jeeps wouldn't make it across the road, let alone 30 miles.
These jeeps made it through World War II, they're going to make it very easy to Las Palma Mines.
Hey, look, I've driven worse.
We'll get there, if we stop talking about it all day.
Let's get going.
David? Yes? Why did you come here? Well, I needed some place to be alone.
Well, I don't think it's ruined.
You know, I kept a diary once, when I was in med school.
May I have it, please, Gail? What are you doing here? Writing the great American novel? Please.
Is this where all your deep, dark secrets are kept? I have to finish fixing the roof.
What's the big plan, once we get there? Listen, you just get us to the right place, amigo.
We'll take care of the plan, comprende? Hey, McGee, what is that for? Why the artillery, Frank? Just a precaution.
Hey, amigo, how much farther? Oh, maybe 10 more miles.
The roads like this all the way? Oh, no, this is the new road.
The bad spots is yet to come.
Swell.
Just as long as we get there.
Won't be much longer now.
The mining road is just up there.
McGEE: Wonderful.
GAIL: And I'd say, besides all this, I'm even a pretty fair cook.
There's no question as to your ability to contribute through work.
But we cannot ignore reality.
It won't work.
Reality.
I'm sick of hearing that word.
Fine.
I won't use it anymore, but that won't change the circumstances, now, will it? All right.
I'm not going back.
All right, that's your choice.
But you'll have to do your running away somewhere else.
Has being stranded out here with me been that bad? Don't be coy.
You're very attractive.
I'd be a liar if I If I said I wasn't tempted.
But this is not a desert island fantasy, and I'm sorry.
(HORN HONKING) JOE: Four-wheel drive won't engage! Now wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.
Did you try it in low? Yeah, in both drives.
Hey, listen, let's rock it.
Come on.
(SPEAKING SPANISH) Come on, rock it.
Come on.
RAUL: Hold it, hold it.
Listen.
It's only about a half a mile.
We could all go in one jeep.
McGee, don't worry, I'll get you there.
(SPEAKING SPANISH) Hey, where you going? Leave the jeep here, we'll come back later for it.
Come on.
Come on, get out.
(ENGINE REVVING) RAUL: Hey, what's he going to do? Malone! Come back here! (SPEAKING SPANISH) (SHOUTING IN SPANISH) RAUL: Malone! (JEEP APPROACHING) David! Help! David! David! (EXCLAIMS) (GRUNTING) David! (GROWLING) (ROARING) Now, you, hold it! I said hold it! It's all over, Dr.
Collins! This is where it ends.
(METAL CRUNCHING) (ROARING) (YELLING) (ROARING) Joey, get back! (ROARING) (RASPING) My throat! (ROARING) A green giant! (WHEEZING) (YELLING) McGEE: Frank! Frank! (ROARING) Joey! Joey, what's wrong? His throat's smashed.
(GASPING) Dr.
Collins? Dr.
Collins, the boy is choking, we need your help! Dr.
Collins, please! Please! (CHOKING) We have to unplug the trachea so he can breathe.
Does somebody have a knife? No.
Yeah.
What are you going to do? Tracheotomy.
If we don't open it, he'll die.
(JOE WHEEZING) Hold your son, Mr.
Malone.
McGEE: The Hulk! It's gone! Mr.
McGee, please! Hold his arms.
You're going to be all right.
We've got to get him to the hospital.
Thank you.
Wait a minute.
Wait a minute, what about the Hulk? We have to get him to the hospital as soon as possible.
Okay.
Hey! Wait for me! Wait! (SPEAKING SPANISH) Thought you wanted to walk.
It's a nice day.
(JEEP DEPARTS)
(THUNDER CLAPPING) (SCREAMING) Did you know it was here? Is that why you wanted me to leave? We're going to Mexico.

(THUNDER RUMBLING) Gail! Gail! Storm came from out of nowhere.
(WIND HOWLING) Nice way to start a day.
Thanks.
DAVID: The wind is tearing the canvas away! (THUNDER RUMBLING) Gail! (SCREAMING) (ROARING) (EXCLAIMS) (ROARING) (WHIMPERING) (SCREAMING) David! David! David! (SCREAMING) David! (THUNDER RUMBLING) (BIRD SQUAWKING) (THUNDER RUMBLING) GAIL: David! Gail! Are you all right? David! Yes.
Are you all right? It was freezing.
David, I don't understand what's happening here! Suddenly everything started crashing on top of me! And this thing, this creature, saved my life! And I screamed and reacted like a terrified child! David, I've seen cellular mutations and birth defects and everything that nature can do to distort the body, but this I know it sounds unbelievable, but it happened.
It's all right.
It's all right, Gail.
It's okay.
You believe me? Yes, I do believe you, Gail.
Did you know it was here? Is that why you wanted me to leave? (THUNDER RUMBLING) David (EXCLAIMS) Gail, it's all right.
It's okay, it's okay.
I understand my own clinical world, but you put me up against something that doesn't fit in that sterilized atmosphere and I hide in a corner.
"There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, "than are dreamed of in your philosophy.
" Hamlet in the Baja? Right.
Who are those words of wisdom meant for, you or me? Both of us.
(THUNDER CLAPPING) Hey, amigo.
Americano? (DOG BARKING) Gracias.
Say, you Jack McGee? Yeah, I am.
We We understand you're looking for a couple of volunteers to find that Collins girl.
Yeah, that's right.
Can you both handle four-wheel drive? Whatever you got, we can handle.
You got it.
Super.
So, how old was your patient? Twenty-one.
She'd been suffering from chronic headaches since she was 17.
She was in almost constant pain by the time I saw her, and escalating in intensity.
Brain aneurysm, huh? Of the medial meningeal artery.
I felt that it was absolutely necessary to operate immediately before the artery burst.
Cindy's father wouldn't consent.
He wanted a second opinion.
I didn't feel that there was enough time for that.
So I went to the patient herself.
She signed the release.
Afterwards, Cindy's father claimed that the signature was a forgery.
My forgery.
You're wrong.
You've played God with my daughter! And you won't get away with it! You will not get away with doing that to my little Cindy.
So what happened at the trial? Gail? It was just the inquest.
First long day, more days sure to follow with questions and answers.
Cindy's father was sitting just a few feet away.
People staring.
Cameras clicking.
I distinctly remember telling Dr.
Collins that under no circumstances did she have my consent.
That signature was illegal.
She made her sign that paper.
She killed my daughter.
That night I ran away.
So you judged Dr.
Collins, found her guilty, pronounced sentence.
Exile, isolation? That's right.
Because I was guilty, guilty of too much pride and arrogance.
Maybe that's difficult for you to understand, not being a doctor.
I was relying on my instincts and my diagnostic skills.
But why not? That was my specialty.
It just didn't work out.
Gail, surgeons deal with death as well as life.
When Cindy Malone came to you, she was dying.
And I don't I don't believe you tried to save her out of pride.
I think you tried to save her because you're a surgeon and a human being, and you didn't succeed because you're a surgeon and a human being.
This is all very serious talk.
Come on.
We've still got a lot of repair work to do.
Come on.
Are you kidding, Raul? These jeeps wouldn't make it across the road, let alone 30 miles.
These jeeps made it through World War II, they're going to make it very easy to Las Palma Mines.
Hey, look, I've driven worse.
We'll get there, if we stop talking about it all day.
Let's get going.
David? Yes? Why did you come here? Well, I needed some place to be alone.
Well, I don't think it's ruined.
You know, I kept a diary once, when I was in med school.
May I have it, please, Gail? What are you doing here? Writing the great American novel? Please.
Is this where all your deep, dark secrets are kept? I have to finish fixing the roof.
What's the big plan, once we get there? Listen, you just get us to the right place, amigo.
We'll take care of the plan, comprende? Hey, McGee, what is that for? Why the artillery, Frank? Just a precaution.
Hey, amigo, how much farther? Oh, maybe 10 more miles.
The roads like this all the way? Oh, no, this is the new road.
The bad spots is yet to come.
Swell.
Just as long as we get there.
Won't be much longer now.
The mining road is just up there.
McGEE: Wonderful.
GAIL: And I'd say, besides all this, I'm even a pretty fair cook.
There's no question as to your ability to contribute through work.
But we cannot ignore reality.
It won't work.
Reality.
I'm sick of hearing that word.
Fine.
I won't use it anymore, but that won't change the circumstances, now, will it? All right.
I'm not going back.
All right, that's your choice.
But you'll have to do your running away somewhere else.
Has being stranded out here with me been that bad? Don't be coy.
You're very attractive.
I'd be a liar if I If I said I wasn't tempted.
But this is not a desert island fantasy, and I'm sorry.
(HORN HONKING) JOE: Four-wheel drive won't engage! Now wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.
Did you try it in low? Yeah, in both drives.
Hey, listen, let's rock it.
Come on.
(SPEAKING SPANISH) Come on, rock it.
Come on.
RAUL: Hold it, hold it.
Listen.
It's only about a half a mile.
We could all go in one jeep.
McGee, don't worry, I'll get you there.
(SPEAKING SPANISH) Hey, where you going? Leave the jeep here, we'll come back later for it.
Come on.
Come on, get out.
(ENGINE REVVING) RAUL: Hey, what's he going to do? Malone! Come back here! (SPEAKING SPANISH) (SHOUTING IN SPANISH) RAUL: Malone! (JEEP APPROACHING) David! Help! David! David! (EXCLAIMS) (GRUNTING) David! (GROWLING) (ROARING) Now, you, hold it! I said hold it! It's all over, Dr.
Collins! This is where it ends.
(METAL CRUNCHING) (ROARING) (YELLING) (ROARING) Joey, get back! (ROARING) (RASPING) My throat! (ROARING) A green giant! (WHEEZING) (YELLING) McGEE: Frank! Frank! (ROARING) Joey! Joey, what's wrong? His throat's smashed.
(GASPING) Dr.
Collins? Dr.
Collins, the boy is choking, we need your help! Dr.
Collins, please! Please! (CHOKING) We have to unplug the trachea so he can breathe.
Does somebody have a knife? No.
Yeah.
What are you going to do? Tracheotomy.
If we don't open it, he'll die.
(JOE WHEEZING) Hold your son, Mr.
Malone.
McGEE: The Hulk! It's gone! Mr.
McGee, please! Hold his arms.
You're going to be all right.
We've got to get him to the hospital.
Thank you.
Wait a minute.
Wait a minute, what about the Hulk? We have to get him to the hospital as soon as possible.
Okay.
Hey! Wait for me! Wait! (SPEAKING SPANISH) Thought you wanted to walk.
It's a nice day.
(JEEP DEPARTS)
