Trivia[]
- This episode was originally scripted under the title "The Golden Fleece"
- This is the second (of two) Hulk episodes directed by Jack Colvin (The other was "Goodbye, Eddie Cain")
- The start of the first "Hulk out" bears striking similarities to a scene from Bixby's 1973 film Steambath, in which his character dies after being poisoned at a Chinese restaurant
