Synopsis: Ms. Brown, in Wakanda, calls for a priest to talk with because she thinks she just lost a friend today. She recounted how she had first met the Hulk and had to lie to him and hurt his feelings to help him. The Hulk was passing through Wakanda when the automatic defenses starting attacking him. Mr. Brown recognized the Hulk and went to see if she could help. It took a few seconds, but the Hulk recognized her and was happy to see her. The Hulk tells her that she just wants some water when the men attacked him so she says they should go make breakfast and he grabs her and jumps away. They start making grits together and Ms. Brown starts talking about her grandmother and that only stupid people need recipes. The Hulk, thinking he's been insulted, says that he is not stupid and puts his fist through the wall right by Ms. Brown. Ms. Brown realizes how close she came and decides to try something else. She puts him in a plane and he is way to big for it. Ms. Brown says they need to get to a barrier reef in the Baltic Sea. The Hulk recognizes the place and immediately grabs Ms. Brown and starts jumping to the location. When they get to the location, Ms. Brown puts a small device in the Hulk ear so that he will hear her when shes talking in the diving suit. She has told the Hulk that there are puppies trapped in a submarine at the bottom of the ocean when it was actually some men on a sunken Russian submarine which did not have time to wait for a naval rescue. She was trying to teach him how to channel his anger into good works. They get to the sub and the Hulk starts to lift it when he is shot in the back. Suddenly multiple ships and men are attacking the Hulk and two men grab Ms. Brown and take her away. She finds herself on a ship with Barney Fiddler, Deputy USAgent. He explains that there are biological weapons on the sub and it can never been raised or opened so they have to leave the soldiers to die. He asks Ms. Brown to help stop the Hulk from opening the sub and creating a disaster. She says that the Hulk is a friend and all but he is stupid and she can't control him and that he's just a big dumb animal. She says that she thinks that they sank the sub and they want to prevent anyone else from getting the technology on board. Meanwhile the Hulk comes and attacks the sub distracting everyone for Ms. Brown to make it to an escape tube. The Hulk catches her and also gets the sub. She talks about the possibility that there might be biological weapons opened on board and asks what they should do. The Hulk responds asks why ask him when he is too stupid. That's when she sees the Hulk holding the comm link from his ear and she realizes she heard the insulting things she said about him while on the sub. Ms. Brown tries to explain and says that she loves him but the Hulk doesn't think so based on the way she's treated him. She says that he doesn't understand and teh Hulk yells to stop saying that. The Hulk then turns and rips a hole in the side of the sub, releasing the men. He mentions that there are no puppies and runs away. That's when she remembers the first lie about the puppies being on the sub. She realizes she may have made the Hulk trust people that much less because of what she has done and make him a little more dangerous.
