Original subtitles

Steady as she goes, Jen.

This is gonna be some interception.

Yeah. Biggest since Ego the living planet.

Yo, Hulksters.

Remember a few episodes ago when we were lost in space,

and we went through a wormhole back to earth, but it was, like, way in the future

and we found out a meteor destroyed the world 'cause we weren't there to smash it?

Well, it's here, now, and we gotta stop it.

'Cause if we don't,

kiss everything you know good-bye.

Skaar go boom?

HULK: Not while I'm around.

Don't you mean "we"?

No. I told you before.

I'm going out to smash it, alone.

Dumbest idea ever, Green.

SHE-HULK: Whoa! Show a little respect, Rick.

(STATIC)

So, me and Hulk blew up on each other this morning,

and I threatened to quit the Smashers.

He threatens to quit 'cause I'm making a call?

I'm leader of this team.

If he doesn't like it,

he can go join Alpha Flight or something.

There's too much gamma radiation

coming off that thing, even for a Hulk.

No reason to risk all of us.

Yes, there is, because this is what we do.

Jones is right. We gotta take on this mission as a unit.

Hulk smash together.

I guess it's unanimous.

No time to argue. Come on.

Now, stay back in case it gets past me.

Yeah, nice try ditching us.

Come on, Smashers. Let's follow our green leader.

Yeah!

(GRUNTS) (EXPLOSION)

We did it. Did we?

Well, this ain't good.

SHE-HULK: We just broke it into five pieces.

You just had to hit it first.

Stop talking and smash.

I'm going after the big one.

Can't let that gamma core hit the earth.

(GRUNTS)

Aaahhh!

(STRAINING)

(YELLS)

(FIRES) Aah!

Hulk! He needs us.

(GRUNTING)

Whoo. Where did that come from?

Hulk, prepare yourself.

Smash it, now! (YELLS)

Hulk and Spaceman smash meteor.

Yeah. But who is that guy?

Good question.

Start talking, mystery man.

Don't worry. I'm a friend.

Let's get the Hulk inside.

You okay, cuz? (GRUNTS)

I'm all right, Jen.

Question is, who are you?

There's something familiar about you.

Should be.

'Cause I'm you, Hulk.

I am the Hulk of the future.

(SCOFFS)

You gotta be pulling my Gamma Gauntlets.

Wow. Geezer Greenie can sure grow a beard.

I'm impressed.

Old Hulk look like Santa.

Oh, my gosh, is that really grandpa you?

Can't be. Not possible.

Gotta be a trick.

I came from the future to help you stop the meteor.

In my time, it devastated the world.

The surviving scientists built me a time machine

to come back and fix things.

You needed my help, or the earth,

our earth, would've been destroyed.

Until we can figure out a way to send you home,

we'll bring you back to base.

Jen, let's go.

A-BOMB: Come on in, uh, Grandpa Hulk.

Ah, the old Gamma Base.

Still looks so new.

Built to be our prison, and then it became our home.

Eh, Hulk?

I still can't believe you're me.

Yeah, but something's different.

(SNIFFING) Skaar smell it, too.

That's just old-man smell.

Oh. I know.

You're thinking you can't trust me.

But I'm you.

Can't you trust yourself, Hulk?

I spend half my life not trusting myself.

Yeah, but what if he's not you?

He could be one of those leader doppel-Smasher robots

or a Skrull or who knows what.

Aah! Rick...

Always so paranoid with your crazy ideas.

Right, Hulk? You got that right.

Yeah. But I actually agree with Jones for once.

So let's take him to the med bay.

A DNA test will prove it for sure.

That's my Jen,

so smart and always with a plan.

Come on, Smashers.

(HUMMING)

COMPUTER: DNA sequencing complete.

Subject is the Hulk.

SHE-HULK: It really is you, Hulk.

Just way older and a little crustier.

Wow, the Hulk of the future!

So, about my future. When do I get my movie deal?

Is my first movie called the A-Bombinator? Do I get at least 10 sequels?

Stop being so shallow, Jones!

We gotta ask important, serious questions about the future,

like when do I become president?

Aah. If old Hulk know future,

old Hulk know what Skaar has for dinner.

Skaar hungry now, so tell Skaar!

The future's been changed, so anything's possible now.

Which means you might not even be the real me anymore.

And a clone of me would have the same DNA.

Okay, then, how about we go slug it out?

Our fighting style is better than a fingerprint.

Can't copy that.

I could go for some smash.

I get to watch Greenie beat up geezer Greenie?

I love it!

Hulk, you can't beat up old you.

Come on, Jen.

I'm every bit the Hulk I used to be.

Let's smash.

The old training room.

(GROWLING) And, Devil, you old lizard.

Come here, boy. (SNIFFING)

Aw, don't be that way.

If Devil doesn't like him,

then something definitely isn't right.

What exactly is this gonna prove?

I mean, besides it being a dumb idea?

Forget him. Let's get it on, old...

Old man? (CHUCKLES)

That's what young me would say.

Enough jabber! Fight!

(GRUNTING)

Not fast enough,

old man. (CRASH)

Hulk fighting himself?

Talk about time paradox.

Not trusting future Hulk, though. Something ain't right.

And it's not just because I'm ticked off at Hulk.

Okay, it's mostly because I'm ticked off at Hulk.

Ah, good one.

(GRUNTING)

(GROWLS) Shouldn't have done that, pops.

(ROARS)

That's the me I remember.

(GROWLS) (YELLS)

(RUMBLING)

(GROWLS)

(GROWLS)

What the Hulk?

Hulk,

I've come for you.

(WHIRRING)

FUTURE HULK: Get down! (GRUNTING)

You won't stop me this time.

Maybe not, but we will.

No, wait. I'm trying to... (GRUNTS)

Sorry. Couldn't hear your robo-voice with my fist in your throat.

(GRUNTS)

Come here, mystery man!

(THUDDING)

You heard the lady, though, eh, creep?

Skaar help Hulk. Don't need help.

(GRUNTING)

He's a madman. From the future, as well.

But he used the meteor impact to try and take over the world.

He wants to destroy us.

(GROWLING)

Hulk, no, wait! No, stop!

It's me, Hulk. It's...

Think you can come into my base and attack me?

(GRUNTING)

Hulk smash!

Oh, no. Hulk's losing it.

(GRUNTING)

FUTURE HULK: Yes, destroy him.

He would wipe us all out, Hulk. The entire world.

Uh-uh. I don't think so.

No!

Yeah!

It can't be. It's me!

Another A-Bomb? From tomorrow land, too?

Hulk, wait. (GRUNTS)

Rick? Why?

Why were you trying to destroy me?

FUTURE HULK: Don't listen to his lies.

He'll try to trick you. We must finish him, Hulk.

Nobody's finishing anyone until we straighten this mess out.

You can't believe him.

In our future, he is a villain,

a tyrant, a monster.

Huh. Maybe I was right

about old jade jaws back in the day.

I don't trust this future A-Bomb.

I knew you'd see the truth.

I came to save you.

He came to spread his destruction.

No, you don't understand. I was trying to...

(GRUNTS)

(GROANS)

Hey! What are you doing?

I thought you were acting like a jerk before.

Now you're totally out of your mind.

Out of my way, A-Bomb, or I'll pound you so hard,

your future self will feel it.

So, then, bring it on, big guy.

Whoa. Stop it. You guys are friends.

What is the matter with you?

Huh. Red, put that future traitor

in the leader's old cell, now.

You bark orders at me like that again,

I'll smack the green right off of ya.

I said now!

I haven't seen him this angry in years.

Something's wrong. Hulk hasn't been acting normal

since his future self showed up.

(THUDDING FOOTSTEPS) (SOFT GROWLING)

(YAWNS)

Ah. (COUGHS)

Devil. Hey, boy. How you doing?

(GROWLS SOFTLY)

Hey. Let me out.

I wasn't attacking you with a weapon.

It's a gamma nullifier!

A cure for the Hulk's gamma poisoning.

Listen to me! (BEEPS)

He'd say anything to deceive you.

SHE-HULK: So, how long are we supposed to keep him in there?

This is still Rick we're talking about.

Yeah. I don't wanna spend my future in a prison cell.

What about my movie deal?

FUTURE HULK: We keep him there for as long as we have to.

Hey, we weren't asking you.

We were asking the present boss.

Like I said, we keep him there

for as long as we have to.

Hulk, I don't know why my future self attacked you,

but it's gotta be A, 'cause I've gone crazy,

or B, because you... He...

Did something really messed up in the future.

All I know is that future you attacked me,

so future you is gonna rot in there until we figure out why.

A-BOMB: Okay, hold up.

Hulk, I'm sorry about our fight this morning.

Seriously, we can't take it this far.

Hulk...

What's done is done.

Skaar not happy.

This is where they start to turn on us, Hulk.

What are you talking about?

They're... They're my friends.

And when you try to protect them,

they say they don't need it.

Well, you don't need them.

No one else knows how you think,

except me.

I do trust you.

We're the same.

There's something you need to see.

(WHIRRING)

The day the Agents of S.M.A.S.H.

try to take over the world.

(THRUMMING)

(GUNFIRE) RED HULK: Do as Jones said.

Take him down.

It's now or never.

(GRUNTING)

We gotta destroy him.

(GROWLS)

Hey, tomorrow me, here you go.

I suppose if anyone would trust me, it'd be me.

All I know is you better have a good reason.

If future me turns out to be a jerk...

Like I told you earlier when I asked for these tools,

I have all the evidence I need right here.

(THRUMMING) Wow, holograms!

Ah, it looks so real.

FUTURE A-BOMB: It will be real.

In the future, the Hulk,

mind corrupted from that meteor,

becomes The Maestro,

a cold, evil, monstrous, self-appointed ruler

of all humanity.

A-BOMB: Well, what happened to all the other heroes?

Couldn't anyone stop him?

Fool! This food is cold.

(GRUNTS)

Fail me again, and I roast you!

Everyone who tried to stop him was defeated.

Everyone but us.

Why old Smashers fight old Hulk?

FUTURE A-BOMB: The core of that meteor gave him gamma poisoning.

None of us knew until it was too late.

It deranged Hulk, turned him into a madman.

I used to think Green was evil.

Now I realize he really can be.

It's not his fault.

Maybe we can change it, fix it somehow.

(GRUNTS) So what's our next move?

Cure the Hulk.

Then The Maestro's twisted evil will never exist.

Okay, first things first. We gotta find Hulk, get him on our side...

(GROWLS)

It's too late! Don't you do it, old man!

Aah!

Hulk, please.

Buddy, you gotta listen to me!

I see through all your lies, Rick.

I've learned the truth.

Your evil ends here and now.

Good-bye, Smashers.

(WEAPON FIRES)

Hulk, snap out of it!

Shooting at me is not what I had in mind.

(YELLS)

(GRUNTS) (CRASHING)

Trying to help ya, Green.

The meteor affected your brain!

Lies! All lies! Aahh!

Future Hulk bad man! (YELLS)

Skaar, you had little chance versus one Hulk

but no chance against two.

(GRUNTS)

Hulk, listen. It's me, She-Hulk,

Jen, your cousin, your family.

Remember those images from the future, Hulk?

They want to control the world.

They tried to destroy us.

All because we tried to lead, to save the earth.

(GRUNTS)

(SIGHS)

Hulk, no. Don't listen to him.

"Him"? We are one and the same!

(YELLS) (GRUNTS)

A-BOMB: Say good night, Hulks. (GROWLS)

Oh, my gosh. That's your one-liner?

Was I really this lame back in the day?

(SARCASTICALLY) Ha, ha.

How about a little less criticism and more saving the world?

Come on. (GROANING)

Let's hope my gamma nullifier is salvageable.

Sorry about stomping on that, by the way.

Oh, now you're sorry.

Okay, future me, you are being a little bit of a jerk.

Let's get to the lab.

HULK: What do you want with the reactor?

(WHIRRING) FUTURE HULK: The only way to save

the Agents of S.M.A.S.H. is to subdue them, (BEEPS)

Then help them see the world as we do.

Right.

All right. Oh, you know what? I better lock the door.

Let's hope these primitive tools prove useful.

(WHIRRING)

Wow! Future self, you can fix that?

Oh, that's cool. I get super smart.

Hey, how'd I get that robot arm?

You don't wanna know.

Yes, I do. It's my arm.

When I was first using gear from the vault

to try and build this gamma siphon,

the Hulk grabbed my, uh, your,

our arm, and... (WHOOSH)

What? Ow! He can't do that. I need this arm.

It hurts just thinking about it.

(THUDDING FOOTSTEPS)

Get used to pain, Rick.

Hulk, your brain was infected

by gamma poisoning from that meteor.

You gotta fight it.

I'll fight you instead. Oh, no!

(GRUNTING)

Too late, traitor.

You're not gonna finish your weapon.

It's not a weapon, Hulk. I'm trying to help you.

This is the only way I can shut you up, boy.

But I thought we were gonna make them see things our way.

There'll be time for that later.

(GROWLING) SHE-HULK: Get him, Devil!

Ow!

(GRUNTS)

Listen to me, Hulk. You're still good inside. I know it.

(GROWLING)

(GROANS)

(WHIMPERING)

You fools!

I am no longer the Hulk.

In my time, my subjects called me The Maestro!

Don't forget it!

(GRUNTING)

(GROANING)

Don't listen to The Maestro, Hulk.

He's not you. You're better than him.

No! I'm him!

I am him!

(GROWLS) Aw, don't do it, Hulk.

That's my video game-playing hand. No!

Hang in there, kid. A robot arm ain't so bad.

(GRUNTING)

Don't make me fight you.

I should've defeated you by now,

but I realize I'm holding back.

I loved you once. You were my family, Jen.

(GRUNTS) Then stop this.

(GRUNTING)

I cannot, because you will become evil.

I'm better off on my own!

(GRUNTS)

Ow! My arm doesn't bend that way!

(GRUNTS) Stop, Hulk. No!

You and the Smashers are all I got.

You're my best friend.

(GRUNTING)

Rick.

(WHIRRING) Yes!

Now, let's hope this works.

Give me that! (GRUNTING)

Time to take your medicine.

Aah! (GRUNTING)

What happened?

(GRUNTS)

(GROANING)

Ooh. Rick?

Maestro's cured, too. We did it!

We changed the past!

From this point on, the future will be different.

My friends, I...

I'm sorry for what happened.

It wasn't you.

It was someone else from a different time. (RED HULK YELLS)

(GRUNTING)

Uh, what the heck's going on in here?

A-Bomb cured me,

making sure our future's a bright one.

What... What's happening? This timeline has changed.

We're going back to a new time

where we can set the world right.

Uh, good-bye, future me.

Catch you on the flip side, past me.

So, time travel. Yeah.

Skaar's mind blown.

So I guess you're wondering why me and Hulk

were made at each other in the first place.

Well, Hulk told me he was gonna go smash the meteor without me,

and I was like, "Dude, I thought we were past all that overprotective stuff."

And he was all like,

(MOCKING) "No, Rick, I've got a bad feeling

"something bad is going to happen."

"It's going to be bad."

And guess what. All kinds of bad stuff happened.

But in the end, it all got fixed. Why?

'Cause me and Hulk are the awesomest pals ever.

Of course we're pals.

And that's why I didn't want Rick to go.

But I realize that was a mistake.

When things got tough, I abandoned my friends.

Worst thing I could've done.

Good friends like Rick help you through hard times.

Hulk out.
