“Terror in Times Square” quotes from The Incredible Hulk

Jack McGee

Here's to Joan Jacobs, Paterson, New Jersey.

Robert Benson

Whose Joan Jacobs?

Jack McGee

The last eyewitness to spot the Hulk. She's pulling her driveway one night about three weeks ago and there he was. Lights must've startled him because he stood in front of her car long enough for her to make an accurate if somewhat hysterical description.

Robert Benson

[laughs] So that's what you're doing in New York. You think this Hulk of yours is taking in a few Broadway shows.

Jack McGee

The Hulk's no joke, Bobby. He's real. And he's a killer. He's also the biggest knockdown, drag-out, five-star final that I have ever latched on to.

Robert Benson

And that's why you spent the last six months tracking down every sighting of your creature. Chicago, St. Louis, Cleveland. Jack, your lucky that paper of yours hasn't kicked you right out on your ear. This thing is becoming an obsession with you.

Jack McGee

Well, maybe so. But right now the Hulk is down there, somewhere. I'm gonna find him.

David, you're terrific. You really know how to handle people without getting angry.

Oh, are you saying you kissed me because I didn't bodily throw you out of the arcade?

No. I kissed you because you helped me study for my diagnostic exam. I aced it!

Oh, not bad for a first year intern, Doctor.

Not bad at all.

Actually, all I did was check the answers in your text book.

No, David, that's not quite true. Most of the answers you correct you didn't even have to look in the book. You knew.

Told you, I had several years in the medical corps.

You know, since you arrived here three weeks ago I've been asking you questions and you've been dancing right around them like Rudolph Nureyev. You're an intelligent, articulate man. And you should not be working in this arcade.

Yes, I know that. Yes. Well, I've seriously been considering announcing my candidacy for the mayor of New York. I really think I have a chance. Big chance.

David, be serious.

I can't. Your father won't allow it during working hours. And I really don't think that this is a time and the place for a deep, philosophical conversation.

You're right. That's why I'm taking you upstairs for some homemade Pecan pie. You'll talk better on a full stomach.

No, I can't do that either. You see, I have to get together with Harold, and we have to close up the arcade tonight.

David, I'm the bosses daughter, right? [David nods] Don't argue with me.

You happy now? That lane's just as bad. Now we're stuck.

You should've cut him off! I told you, this is an emergency!

So next time, call you an ambulance. We'll get there when we get there, mister.

[eyes have started to turn green] I've got to be there by five!

Hey, mister, you're gonna be ten minutes late, so just keep your shirt on.

Robert Benson

Hey, Jack, that green creature of yours was just seen running through Times Square.

Jack McGee

Heading which way?

Robert Benson

[speaking on the phone] Heading which way? Towards Park Avenue.

Well, you're on time. I appreciate that.

I didn't kill Leo, Jason. [pulls a gun out]

What the... Somebody stop him! Get him!

Get away from me!

Jack McGee

Well, Bobby, still think I'm wasting my time?

Robert Benson

[sighs] It's a big city out there, Jack. How can you be sure he's down there?

Jack McGee

Oh, I can't. Like I said in my column, I intend to comb every mile of it until I find out.

You're not gonna tell me why, are you?

No.

Can you tell me where?

[short pause] California, I suppose. I'm not sure.

David, whatever the problem is--

It cannot be solved here. Not at this time. Believe me.

[smiles] Okay.

Okay.

For what it's worth.

[smiles] It's worth a lot.
