The Hulk has seemingly been vanquished. The Hulkbusters and their allies have a funeral for their fallen comrade Carolyn Parmentor. Among the mourners are Rick Jones, Bruce Banner, his wife Betty, Doc Samson and a contingent of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents. Among the Hulkbusters, Samuel LaRoquette is the most upset as he had a romantic past with Carolyn before her death. He is furious that she has been buried in the desert given that she loved the ocean. Craig Saunders tries to calm his friend, but LaRoquette still blames both Doc Samson and Bruce Banner for Parmentor's death. Samson becauase he interfered with their hunt for the Hulk, and Banner for not equipping them properly. Although Banner tries to apologize for his involvement, Samson believes that if anyone should be to blame it is LaRoquette himself. This almost causes the two to come to blows, but the rest of the Hulkbusters pull them apart, urging calm and decorum. After the funeral, everyone drives back to Gamma Base. In the car containing Bruce, Betty and Rick they discuss putting everything behind them and moving on. Banner is concerned about Rick after he fell into the same chemical bath that seemingly cured him, as the young man looks sick. Rick assures him that it's probably nothing but a cold.

Back at Gamma Base, S.H.I.E.L.D. agents are secretly wheeling in a containment unit that contains the energy being known as Zzzax. Elsewhere in the facility, Clay Quartermain meets with Bruce and Betty. Bruce is to be sequestered in a cell at night. Betty is not happy with this, but Bruce fears that if the grey Hulk has returned then so might the nighttime triggers that turned him into the Hulk. That night, while Bruce is asleep he has a nightmare about the green Hulk breaking into his cell, he pleads to the creature to leave him alone. At that very moment, Zzzax causes a power surge in the facility and knocks out the power all over the base.

Not far from Gamma Base a massive hulking man-monster walks across the highway taking out a big rig. Back at base, the power is restored and Quartermain and Doc Samson get access to Banner's room. They find that Bruce's clothing is torn, and Bruce doesn't remember how it happened. Quartermain and Samson learn that the power outage was caused by Zzzax, but the creature is still contained. This comes to a relief to Doc Samson, but soon he has a visitor. It turns out to be Polly, a colleague to Northwestern University. She has come to inform him that his tenure there has been terminated. In light of his activities as late, Polly also wants nothing to do with him either and after delivering the news she leaves Gamma Base. Hearing that Doc Samson is now out of a job, Clay Quartermain asks him if he wants to rejoin the staff at Gamma Base, as they could use his expertise. They then go to where a test is being run on Bruce Banner to see if he will still transform into the Hulk. Doc Samson is horrified to see that this "test" is merely a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent slapping him around. However, after the test doesn't trigger a transformation into the Hulk, Bruce explains that he authorized this test.

After he hasn't transformed into the Hulk when losing his temper, Bruce is given the all clear from S.H.I.E.L.D. Betty also hears this and can hardly bring herself to hope that the nightmare of the Hulk is finally over and the newlyweds can resume their marriage. Gen, Ross refuses to believe that Bruce has been cured and warns her that the Hulk will be back. Betty tells her father he is insane, especially after he shot Rick. Their argument is interrupted by S.H.I.E.L.D. agents who ask Ross to return to the lab to continue their tests. With one more evening test to go, Bruce tries to go to sleep hoping that he will not turn into the Hulk and finally win his freedom. Suddenly, a green-skinned monster, not unlike the Hulk starts tearing up Gamma Base.

Fearing that it is Banner, S.H.I.E.L.D. mobilizes a strike unit when the creature leaves the base and starts going on a rampage out in a nearby town. In the commotion, Quartermain also learns that Bruce Banner cannot be found in his cell. Clay goes out into the field in a jeep along with Betty and Doc Samson to search for Banner in human form. They demand explanations, and Banner explains that something attacked his cell. Banner insists that he has not transformed into the Hulk again. They don't believe him at first until suddenly another Hulk, this one skinnier with long hair and a different shade of green. Stating that it has sought out Banner, this new Hulk grabs Bruce and leaps away from the scene, leaving the others to wonder who this new Hulk is.
