I created Lisa Swan, and she wouldn't be where she is without me.

(ROCK MUSIC PLAYING)

(AUDIENCE CHEERING)

When you create a monster like that,

eventually it's just gonna take control of you.

(ROARS)

I really have to go, Lisa.

I need you.

That's 50,000 volts, man. You touch it, you fry.

NARRATOR: Dr. David Banner, physician, scientist.

Searching for a way to tap into the hidden strengths that all humans have.

Then, an accidental overdose of gamma radiation alters his body chemistry.

And now, when David Banner grows angry or outraged,

a startling metamorphosis occurs.

(ROARS)

The creature is driven by rage

and pursued by an investigative reporter.

Mr. McGee, don't make me angry.

You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.

The creature is wanted for a murder he didn't commit.

David Banner is believed to be dead.

And he must let the world think that he is dead

until he can find a way to control the raging spirit that dwells within him.

(ROARS)

(AUDIENCE CHEERING)

(SINGING) He's the one who knows you all

He's a walking stucco wall

He's the shadow underneath your sink

When you see him in the street

you can watch him lie and cheat

on his way to get another drink

If you chance to call his name, he will answer you in shame

and inquire about the clothes he hasn't worn

When he talks to you, he smokes

And he's got a million jokes that were old before the day he was born

Necktie nightmare, hide beneath the sun

Necktie nightmare, crawl before you run

Necktie nightmare, you better sell your soul

You're finished before you've begun

You've just begun

He's got the hundred grand, but his handshake feels like sand

And he gives a little bit to every cause

He'll always have a smile if you've known him for a while

and you'll never catch him breaking any laws

Necktie nightmare, hide beneath the sun

Necktie nightmare, crawl before you run

Necktie nightmare, you better sell your soul

You're finished before you've begun

You've just begun

Come on, is it blood you want?

Come on, is it me?

I'm going to take you to the depths of hell, where all your dreams come true!

(SINGING) Necktie nightmare, hide beneath the sun

Necktie nightmare, crawl before you run

Necktie nightmare, you better sell your soul

(INAUDIBLE)

You're finished before you've begun

You've just begun

(GIRL SCREAMING)

(AUDIENCE CHEERING WILDLY)

(GIRL GASPING)

Fantastic, baby, fantastic. Look at them, look at them. They love it.

Come on. Come on.

JACKIE: It was terrific. You drove them absolutely wild.

Ooh, that new electrical stuff was fantastic, Lisa. I knew it.

I thought those kids were going to tear that stage apart.

And, baby, you looked unreal, absolutely unreal.

Oh, Alice called earlier. He wants you for his TV special.

But I said no. No TV, it's too mainstream.

Hey, what is the matter with you? You were terrific.

MAN ON RADIO: Seem to be at an impasse.

This just in, a 16-year-old girl lies in critical condition tonight

after a riot broke out at a rock concert featuring Lisa Swan and Shock.

Diane Markon was severely injured

when several thousand frenzied fans rushed the stage during Miss Swan's performance.

The million-selling new wave rocker could not be reached for comment.

In sports...

I'll have G.R. Prepare a statement.

(TIRES SQUEALING)

Lisa, slow down.

Hey, I said slow down. I'll handle this.

Yeah, I know you will. You always have.

Watch it!

(TIRES SCREECHING)

(CRASHING)

Lisa!

Lisa, get out of there!

JACKIE: Oh, God! It's stuck! I can't get it open! It's stuck.

(JACKIE SCREAMS)

Lisa. Lisa? Lisa.

What are you doing?

Flag down a car. We have to get her to a hospital. Come on.

Jackie. Jackie!

It's all right. It's all right. You're gonna be all right.

It's okay.

Hey! Well, where've you been? Everybody's called.

Hey, they loved all that new stuff in the act.

Hey, man, what's that with the marshmallow?

That's a bandage, Greg.

Little sister totaled my car.

What? You okay?

Just a little shook up.

Look, maybe you ought to go to bed

and not move around, like the doctor said, huh?

Well, I think I'll just rest in here.

Hey, who's this? Dr. Kildare?

It's David. He saved my life.

All right!

All right. Do we adopt him?

Well, we offered him the world, but so far all he wants is breakfast.

Coffee?

Please.

Greg. You got it.

(PHONE RINGING)

Greg, will you get that? Lisa's not talking to anybody today.

Okay, David, let's try this one more time.

How do you spell your last name?

(SIGHING) What's that for?

Services rendered.

I couldn't accept money for a thing like that.

Well, you can't say I didn't offer. What would you like?

Cream, no sugar.

(AUDIENCE CHEERING WILDLY)

Lisa?

Lisa.

(SIGHS)

David, I'm sorry.

You've really helped me. No.

What can I do for you? There's got to be something.

I mean, do you need a job?

(CHUCKLES)

What could I possibly do?

You do need a job!

Well, you could help Greg out with the stage act.

I mean, we need someone around here with his feet on the ground.

I could use the work, yes,

but I can't make any promises.

I might have to leave in a month. Maybe even in a week.

Sold.

What are you selling?

David's gonna work for us.

Doing what, baby?

Well, we need somebody to track the wireless.

Well, what about Greg?

(SCOFFS) Greg is too wasted to do more than one thing at a time.

Is this what you want, David?

If it's not a problem.

It's not a problem. You start tomorrow.

(SIGHS) Well...

Don't mess with those lightning bolts.

Got a special guy that handles all the new fireworks.

DAVID: What about the starbursts?

The same.

That's 50,000 volts, man. You touch it, you fry.

(WHISTLES)

Hey, man, you want a couple of these?

No, I... Thanks, I don't.

Hi. How're you feeling today?

Great, thank you.

Greg, have you heard anything about the girl who was hurt?

Oh, look, don't worry about her.

We got more important things to think about.

Right. That new equipment didn't get here.

What new equipment?

We have two more starbursts coming in. They're fabulous.

Jackie, you know that I hate the two we already have.

LISA: They give me the creeps. Why?

Oh, man, they're safe. As long as you don't go past that top step,

the red one, you can't get high enough to reach them.

Do we need all these effects?

Yes.

You'll get used to it, baby. The act needs more electricity.

Come on, you know that this is what it's all about. The show.

What about the tunes?

Hey, when we used to play the Fillmore in the '60s,

there was so much light show, you couldn't even see the band.

Greg, will you get the studio set up, please?

I haven't shown him his gig yet.

No, no, I'll show him.

You get going, okay? And don't pop any more pills.

I need you conscious for the session tonight.

(SIGHS)

Whatever you say, bwana.

He used to be the best in the business.

So, this is what you'll be doing.

Just keep this thing pointed at me all the time.

That's it, huh?

That's it. See, this is the receiver for the signals from my wireless mike,

and as long as you keep it pointed at me, the signals will be clean.

You've got it. Okay, Lisa. We're ready for the sound check.

Yo, Ken!

(SINGING) He's the one who knows you all

He's a walking stucco wall

He's the shadow underneath your sink

When you see him in the street

you can watch him lie and cheat

on his way to get another drink

If you chance to call his name, he will answer you in shame

and inquire about the clothes he hasn't worn

Necktie nightmare, you better sell your soul

You're finished before you've begun

You've just begun

Are you Jackie Swan?

I'm from The National Register. Jack McGee.

Mr. McGee, this is a closed rehearsal.

I just wanted to have a few words with your sister about Diane Markon.

Well, we released a statement yesterday.

Yeah, well, that was yesterday.

That was before they discovered the girl was paralyzed,

maybe for life.

Well, I'm sorry, Mr. McGee, no interviews.

Well, why don't we let her decide that for herself.

I decide that.

Look, Miss Swan, I don't want to make your sister look bad.

As a matter of fact, I don't want to be on this story at all.

I'm on another story. It's a bigger story.

In my opinion, a better one.

But I have my orders. So if you'll just allow me to have a few minutes, I'll be...

I don't care to deal with your paper, Mr. McGee.

It caters to the baser instincts,

and I don't want this matter exploited.

And what sort of instincts do you cater to, Miss Swan?

Let me show you out.

Necktie nightmare, hide beneath the sun

Necktie nightmare, crawl before you run

Necktie nightmare, you better sell your soul

You're finished before you've begun

You've just begun

(MUSICIANS CHATTERING)

You know, these guys have been with me since the beginning.

We were playing in small bars and clubs.

Oh, the good old days?

I didn't think so at the time.

You wouldn't have believed the dives we played in.

Fifty bucks a night if we were lucky.

Oh.

We slept in a van on the road.

But we made some pretty good music.

Jackie was the mastermind behind the entire thing.

We used to dream about it.

Did that ever happen to you,

you know, you put your whole life into something and then

you end up watching it happen?

Mmm. Yes. But you have the talent to make it work.

(PIANO PLAYING)

I can't believe you remember the tune.

(SINGING) You think my every word is dressed in a disguise

I know you think my veins are filled with alibis

I want your trust, but I don't know what to do

You don't believe me though my words are true

But I'm not lying now

Or when I hold you near

Or when I think about you

Or whisper in your ear

Not even when I break a rendezvous

Or tell you what your crazy moods can do

I swear it's true

That was really lovely.

Did you write it?

In another life.

Jackie says it's boring and it's not what the audience wants.

Hmm.

What do they want?

Power, energy.

And it's really there.

I mean, I get this huge rush

when I know that the audience is just as caught up in the act as I am.

And the more power that I send out to them,

the more power they send to me.

And it gets to the point where I think we're all just gonna explode.

It drives everybody crazy.

Not like my old tunes.

Well, don't think that your old tunes lack power.

The one you just sang was very moving.

Yeah, well,

Jackie says that that kind of moving ain't what they wanna hear.

You just wait, David. This act is gonna blow you away.

You should get going to the studio.

I'll see you there later?

Okay.

Like your song.

GREG: Then we patch the guitars on the BNC.

KEN: Yeah, that would be okay.

And we can patch Bobby into the "H" track.

Yeah, let's do it.

David, when you get to it, patch the piano into number eight.

How's it going?

Earth to Greg. Hello!

I don't get it, man. She's like a puppy dog around him,

and she bites my head off.

Don't let her get to you, Greg. She's tired.

She's down on my case about drugs. I mean, how long have I been with her?

I never let her down.

Then this David cat comes along, and it's instant Donny and Marie.

Well, maybe if you got him loaded, he'd lighten up.

Or if he can't handle it, maybe he'll split.

So why don't you go in there and help him out?

Hey, not bad, man. Not bad at all.

This calls for a little reward. Orange sunshine.

Hmm? For later.

I know the dude who makes it.

Orange sunshine?

Acid, man.

Oh, no, thank you, not my thing to do.

(SCOFFS)

It could show you a side of you you've never seen before.

(CHUCKLING)

(LAUGHS)

No, thank you.

(ON INTERCOM) Greg, you better go pick up those new cue sheets.

Be back by 5:00.

I'll be back.

This is one session I don't want to miss.

Yeah.

Jackie!

We've added some brass in here,

so be prepared to get a good pick up on that.

No problem.

Let's see.

Jackie!

(ROARS)

(ROARS)

(ROARS)

Let's drop the "J" track altogether.

Yeah. We'll use the "A" and "D."

Okay.

(ROARS)

(GRUNTING)

(ROARS)

What was that?

Oh!

Oh, my God, what is that?

(ROARS)

Ken, do something.

Operator, get the police. This is an emergency.

Get out of there, man!

(ROARS)

Get out of there, man!

KEN: (ON INTERCOM) Greg! Get out of there, man!

POLICEMAN: Get a couple more over here.

Boy, that thing must've thrown him 30 feet.

(SIGHING) I hope Greg is all right.

Budge will take care of him.

I wish I knew where David went. Yeah.

Well.

Word is out that you had unexpected company.

(SCOFFS) King Kong City, man,

but green and big.

And I do mean big.

The police are taking care of it, Mr. McGee.

Who was here before it happened?

Just me, Jackie and a couple of roadies.

Mr. McGee, I have a person missing,

I have a mess here to clean up and I have a really rotten headache.

So now if you would just leave my sister and me alone...

This no longer concerns just you and your sister, Miss Swan.

Now, where can I find these roadies?

I'm asking you to leave us alone.

You ever hear of the First Amendment, Miss Swan?

I will talk to whoever I have to

and will find everybody who was in this room.

Officer!

McGEE: Could you give me a name and a statement for my paper?

Whatever you say, say it softly.

Do you want me to fix you a cup of coffee?

No, thanks. I don't think I could keep it down.

What happened to you yesterday? I was worried about you.

I don't remember.

They told me about that creature.

They said by the time the dust had cleared, you were gone.

We didn't know what to think. We called all the hospitals.

Well, I'm okay. How about yourself?

I don't know.

Last night, I started thinking about that poor Markon girl.

I wanted to die.

You know she's paralyzed?

Where you going?

I just came over to say goodbye.

David, you can't leave now.

You're the only one I can talk to.

I told you I'd be moving on someday.

Yeah, but not so soon.

Just a little longer.

I really have to go, Lisa.

No, you don't. I need you.

I wanted to go and visit Diane Markon today.

But I can't face her alone. Would you come with me?

Please?

Okay.

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

Come in.

Who is it?

Who are you?

I'm Lisa Swan.

This is my friend David.

Can't see you, but hi.

Oh.

Hi.

I brought you some tapes and a cassette player.

Thanks.

They're just some old, unreleased sessions.

They're very special, and I thought you might like to have them.

Thank you.

You look real different without your makeup and everything.

This is the real me.

Could I hear one of the tapes?

Oh, sure.

Let's see here.

(SOFT MUSIC PLAYING ON TAPE)

Those chord changes are really neat.

You play the guitar?

Yup, I do.

(LISA SINGING ON TAPE)

You know, I'm...

(TAPE SWITCHES OFF)

I'm very sorry about what happened.

It's not your fault.

It was a great concert, really.

I'll never forget it.

She's so pretty.

Yeah, she is.

She's so young.

She doesn't seem to realize what I've done to her.

Oh, now, come on, Lisa.

Well, it was bound to happen.

When you create a monster like that,

eventually it's just gonna take control of you.

I planted the violence in those kids.

Now it's blossomed into something that I can't stop.

Lisa, those seeds are in all of us.

But I made them grow.

And what is to stop it from happening again?

Maybe even worse.

You.

Lisa, you can stop it if you want to.

You're right.

What are you going to do?

Tonight's my last concert.

(ON INTERCOM) David, come in here, please.

Okay, I'll see you tonight.

Okay. Bye.

Yeah? David, I'm glad you're here. I can't find Greg

and these need to go to the auditorium now.

Look, you'd better be sharp tonight.

When Lisa's this hot to do a show, she's hard to keep up with.

Are we thinking about the same person?

The one I just talked to is ready to fly.

But I was with her this afternoon. She was very upset about Diane Markon.

Well, she's tired. We all are.

We'll take a rest after this album is finished.

That may be too late.

For what?

After this tour, Lisa is gonna be the hottest rock star in the country.

But when I left her, she was talking about canceling the tour.

What? Yeah.

Of course, that might be best for her.

Wait a minute, David. Let's get something straight right now.

I am the one that decides what's best for Lisa.

I always have, even when we were kids,

because I know what Lisa wants.

I know what she needs. I know what she thinks.

I even know how many times she breathes in an hour.

Because I created Lisa Swan and she wouldn't be where she is without me.

None of these people would.

You stay away from her.

Lisa will be fine.

(ELECTRICITY BUZZING)

(PEOPLE CHATTERING)

You know, baby, it's been a long time since you and I sat down and had a talk.

What's to say?

Are you all right? Is everything cool?

Well, how do I look?

Fine.

I am.

(PEOPLE CHATTERING)

(DOOR OPENS)

JACKIE: Yeah. McGEE: Hello.

Mr. McGee, how many times do I have to say no to you?

Look, Miss Swan, I'd just like to have a couple of... Back off, mister!

But if...

Hey, you got to get to your spot, man. We're waiting on you.

Hey, come on, man, let's move!

AUDIENCE: Lisa! Lisa! Lisa!

(SINGING) He's the one who knows you all

He's a walking stucco wall

He's the shadow underneath your sink

When you see him in the street

you can watch him lie and cheat

on his way to get another drink

If you chance to call his name, he will answer you in shame

and inquire about the clothes he hasn't worn

When he talks to you, he smokes

And he's got a million jokes that were old before the day he was born

Necktie nightmare, hide beneath the sun

Necktie nightmare, crawl before you run

Necktie nightmare, you better sell your soul

You're finished before you've begun

You've begun

(INAUDIBLE)

You want blood?

(AUDIENCE CHEERING)

You want it all?

(AUDIENCE CHEERING)

Well, come on, come on!

I'm gonna show you the depths of hell.

(CHEERING)

You're gonna burn! We're all gonna burn!

I'm gonna take you places you've never been.

I'm gonna show you things you've never seen.

I'm not gonna let you go until I give you what you want.

What do you want, huh? What do you want?

Blood? You want it?

Lisa, no!

(ELECTRICITY BUZZING)

Oh, God, Lisa!

(ROARS)

Hey, call the cops. That's not an act, it's the Hulk.

(ROARS)

LISA: When I saw that creature,

I realized that if I electrocuted myself in front of the audience,

it wouldn't put an end to it.

It would only feed their appetite.

I've been avoiding the fact that I've become a freak instead of a musician.

After seeing that creature

and seeing that audience react to the raw, unbridled violence,

I understood how useless my suicide would have been.

It wouldn't have taught them anything, just turned them on more.

Well, I really was worried about you.

Well, it won't happen again, I can promise you.

I don't want anyone else like Diane Markon on my conscience.

How about your relationship with Jackie?

We'll make it. She's listening to me now.

And with my music and her business sense,

who needs the effects?

Whatever happens, it beats suicide.

Yes, it does.

Well, I better leave you to your work.

Wait, I want you to hear something.

(PLAYING SOFT TUNE)

That's nice.

Well, I've had it in my head for a while.

I haven't quite got the lyrics yet, but I'm thinking about them.

I'm gonna miss you, David. You're very special.

So are you, Lisa.

Hey, but be good to yourself, huh?

Bye-bye. Bye.
