Synopsis[]
While driving a laundry truck for a women's prison, David is taken hostage by three inmates who are bent on escaping the reign of the brutal prison warden. The authorities, believing that David helped to orchestrate the escape, set out to capture all four of them. The three prisoners force David to travel through dangerous terrain, which is made even more difficult when one of the women goes into labor.

- One of the few episodes where the Hulk is bleeding
- Hulk-out 1: Somehow being caught under a rock slide, and then foolishly exposing one of his hands on the mountainside so that a big, heavy rock smashes it
- Hulk-out 2: Being attacked by the cops who handcuff him even though he has told them his hand is broken, and who then let him flail around so that he falls on his bad hand
Trivia[]
The “yellow dissolve” effect used within the opening montage from the pilot episode was used to cover the metamorphosis of the Hulk back to Banner after the scene in the quarry.
This is the first episode in season five where the Hulk does not take off the ripped shirt during the first Hulk-out.
