Synopsis: Bruce asks Agent Pratt how they made it look like the Hulk
killed the boy from the collapsing building. Pratt replies taht it
was small time stuff, anybody could do it. Bruce tells Pratt that
he saw him die with his own eyes. Bruce asks if he is just another
man made to look like Pratt through plastic surgery. Pratt doesn't
answer. When Pratt picks up a vial of blood, Bruce mentions that it
is normal blood and won't do him any good. Pratt hits Bruce across
the face with his hand and knocks him to the floor. While out, Bruce
dreams about being in the apartment he was staying at before being
captured and seeing the woman who he was staying with's decomposing
body talking to him. Pratt splashes water on Bruce to wake him up
and tells him they are leaving but won't tell Bruce where they are
going. As they walk out of the hospital, a man is being wheeled in
on a stretcher and they overhear that he worked at the morgue and
tried to kill himself. As they head for a car, Pratt tells Bruce they
are going to talk with some dead people. As they drive away, Bruce
gets a bad fever and passes out again. He dreams that he is in the
bed at the apartment and an IV is attached to his arm and runs to
the decomposing but still living body of the women he was staying
with, Laurie Copeland. He wakes up and Pratt is pretending like he
was just telling Bruce why they wanted his blood. Pratt and Bruce
arrive at the morgue and Pratt asks the person there to see a list
of recent entries. The man asks for ID and Pratt shoots him. Bruce
runs over and finds that the man is still breathing. Pratt looks on
the list and sees where Laurie Copeland's body is being kept. Pratt
tells Bruce to pull open the drawer with Laurie's body but Bruce says
no. A woman walks in and asks if Bruce and Pratt need any help in
which Pratt shoots her. Bruce checks the woman and finds her alive
also but Pratt warns that the next person won't be so lucky. Pratt
reviews what has transpired with Bruce recently with being hit by
a car and Laurie taking him in and then going to Kansas City. Bruce
then was in and out of consciousness for awhile in the apartment room
until the police came in and found a decomposing body who they assumed
was Laurie Copeland and also assumed Bruce was someone named George
Copeland. Pratt points out that given the time between when Laurie
supposed left and when the body was found with Bruce, there was no
way that Laurie would have decomposed that much. Bruce asks who killed
the woman in the closet. Pratt replies Clarence Sodworth, a PhD who
moonlights as a registered executioner by lethal injection. Bruce
opens the drawer supposed holding Laurie's body and finds it empty.
The police break in suddenly and shot Pratt. The police walk up to
arrest Bruce when Pratt, who was pretending to be dead, starts shooting
the policemen. One of the remaining police finally gets Pratt in the
chest while Bruce falls out the window to the outside of the building
where he is surprised to find Sandra alive and standing in front of
him. He tells him she has wheels and that they should be off.
