00:00:11,958 --> 00:00:16,542
BANNER: I'm sorry. I tried to warn you.
My blood got into your system.

3
00:00:16,625 --> 00:00:20,417

00:00:21,708 --> 00:00:22,875
Who the hell are you?

6
00:00:22,958 --> 00:00:26,000
-She-Hulk! She-Hulk! She-Hulk!
-HOLLIWAY: Ms Walters?

7
00:00:26,083 --> 00:00:29,083
We just started a Superhuman Law Division,

8
00:00:29,167 --> 00:00:31,958
and I want the She-Hulk
to be the face of it.

9
00:00:32,042 --> 00:00:34,583
I can't wait to take on whatever case
you assign me...

10
00:00:34,667 --> 00:00:39,042
Your first case is the parole of
Emil Blonsky. Also known as Abomination.

11
00:00:39,125 --> 00:00:40,333
EMIL: Jennifer Walters.

12
00:00:40,417 --> 00:00:45,125
I've already got a winning strategy,
and it is 100% in the bag.

13
00:00:45,208 --> 00:00:47,667
You might wanna
take a look at the news right now.

14
00:00:47,750 --> 00:00:50,417
After shocking footage leaked
showing the Abomination

15
00:00:50,500 --> 00:00:53,875
participating in what appears to be
an underground fight club,

16
00:00:53,958 --> 00:00:55,750
after having escaped from prison.

17
00:01:44,500 --> 00:01:46,875
Do you wanna explain to me
why you failed to mention

18
00:01:46,958 --> 00:01:50,625
that you not only escaped from prison,
but you were also recorded doing so?

19
00:01:50,708 --> 00:01:53,708
You said to my face that you never
turn into the Abomination anymore.

20
00:01:53,792 --> 00:01:56,458
No, I said I choose not to.

21
00:01:56,542 --> 00:01:59,875
You know, these were
extenuating circumstances.

22
00:01:59,958 --> 00:02:02,625
You understand that
this constitutes another crime

23
00:02:02,708 --> 00:02:04,667
and totally destroys
your chances at parole?

24
00:02:05,583 --> 00:02:06,583
What?

25
00:02:06,667 --> 00:02:11,083
Nah, 'cause I was forced to leave my cell,

26
00:02:11,167 --> 00:02:14,708
but I returned of my own free will.

27
00:02:14,792 --> 00:02:19,208
Who forced you to escape this
insanely high-security prison undetected?

28
00:02:19,292 --> 00:02:24,375
A Sorcerer Supreme of the Mystic Arts,
and his name is...

29
00:02:24,458 --> 00:02:27,042
Wong. Just Wong.

30
00:02:27,125 --> 00:02:29,625
And his Internet presence
is a little chaotic.

31
00:02:29,708 --> 00:02:32,917
He's either a sorcerer
who lives in New York,

32
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,083
or a librarian who lives in Nepal.

33
00:02:35,167 --> 00:02:36,500
Can you get to him?

34
00:02:36,583 --> 00:02:38,875
Yes, Jen. It's me.
Of course I can get to him.

35
00:02:38,958 --> 00:02:41,750
I sent a thirst trap. It was a picture
of me with a bunch of books.

36
00:02:41,833 --> 00:02:43,708
Yeah, well, let's just hope he calls back.

37
00:02:43,792 --> 00:02:45,250
If Blonsky's telling the truth,

38
00:02:45,333 --> 00:02:49,333
this guy busted him out of his prison cell
and probably ruined my entire case.

39
00:02:50,458 --> 00:02:53,375
I know you can't wait to see Wong.
I get it.

40
00:02:53,458 --> 00:02:55,167
I wanna make sure that you don't think

41
00:02:55,250 --> 00:02:58,542
this is one of those cameo every week
type of shows. It's not.

42
00:02:59,542 --> 00:03:00,792
Well, except Bruce.

43
00:03:01,292 --> 00:03:03,583
And Blonsky. And Wong.

44
00:03:05,208 --> 00:03:07,417
Just remember whose show this actually is.

46
00:03:13,833 --> 00:03:16,708
Attorney Jennifer Walters
of law firm GLK and H

47
00:03:16,792 --> 00:03:21,417
has been tapped to represent Emil Blonsky,
also known as the Abomination,

48
00:03:21,500 --> 00:03:23,458
in his upcoming parole hearing.

49
00:03:23,542 --> 00:03:25,292
The news has stirred up much controversy.

50
00:03:25,375 --> 00:03:26,875
Ever since it's been revealed that

51
00:03:26,958 --> 00:03:30,667
Jennifer Walters has
a superhero alter-ego called She-Hulk,

52
00:03:30,750 --> 00:03:34,625
the statuesque green lawyer
has been plagued by public backlash,

53
00:03:34,708 --> 00:03:37,167
with many questioning her qualifications.

54
00:03:37,333 --> 00:03:44,333
(SPEAKING SPANISH)

55
00:03:45,500 --> 00:03:49,958
They took the Hulk's manhood away,
but then they gave it to a woman?

56
00:03:50,667 --> 00:03:53,667
MAN 2: I don't get it. Why are you turning
every superhero into a girl?

57
00:03:53,750 --> 00:03:56,625
MAN 3: So we have a MeToo movement,
and now all the male heroes are gone?

58
00:03:56,708 --> 00:03:59,625
I have no problem with female heroes.
Just saying make your own.

59
00:03:59,708 --> 00:04:01,458
I don't know about y'all, but I'd smash.

60
00:04:01,542 --> 00:04:04,458
We have Gideon Wilson, the prosecutor

61
00:04:04,542 --> 00:04:07,333
who put the Abomination away
all those years ago. Gideon.

62
00:04:07,417 --> 00:04:10,000
First, I would like to say,
it is frankly appalling that

63
00:04:10,083 --> 00:04:12,833
anyone would work towards
freeing a monster like the...

64
00:04:13,583 --> 00:04:17,083
-Have you seen this insanity?
-I don't care what anybody says about me.

65
00:04:17,167 --> 00:04:19,417
There's something in this country
called due process.

66
00:04:19,500 --> 00:04:21,792
-Emil deserves a fair hearing.
-You have to respond.

67
00:04:22,292 --> 00:04:24,375
You have to be
in control of your own narrative.

68
00:04:25,375 --> 00:04:26,792
Jennifer Walters speaking.

69
00:04:27,833 --> 00:04:29,708
Yes, I will be right there.

00:04:33,083 --> 00:04:35,167
(SIGHS) Come on. This case is huge.

72
00:04:35,250 --> 00:04:38,083
People wanna know
every single detail about your life.

73
00:04:38,167 --> 00:04:39,292
You're a public figure now.

74
00:04:39,375 --> 00:04:42,333
The office has been flooded with
calls and requests for interviews,

75
00:04:42,417 --> 00:04:43,542
so you should do one.

76
00:04:43,625 --> 00:04:45,958
People only care
because I'm representing Emil Blonsky.

77
00:04:46,042 --> 00:04:48,625
Once that's over,
this whole media circus will die down.

78
00:04:48,708 --> 00:04:52,750
No, Jen, this is not gonna go away
just because you're ignoring it.

79
00:04:52,833 --> 00:04:54,542
Every minute I spend on this crap

80
00:04:54,625 --> 00:04:56,958
is one less minute
I spend focusing on my job.

I am incredibly upset.

-No way... Not Jen Walters.

85
00:05:08,958 --> 00:05:12,833
Ms. Walters is head
of the Superhuman Law Division.

86
00:05:12,917 --> 00:05:15,917
We have too much history for me to be
comfortable with her on the case.

87
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,917
I would love to know what this is about
and not work on it.

88
00:05:19,833 --> 00:05:21,417
-You wanted to see me?
-Ah, yes.

89
00:05:21,500 --> 00:05:25,083
Mallory Book is also
in the Superhuman Law Division.

90
00:05:25,167 --> 00:05:29,250
Yeah. No, I can't talk to a 10
about embarrassing man stuff.

91
00:05:29,333 --> 00:05:30,958
She could be my next fiancée.

92
00:05:31,875 --> 00:05:33,292
Happy to not be involved.

93
00:05:34,625 --> 00:05:37,375
Is he a lawyer?
He looks cool. I'll take him.

94
00:05:38,250 --> 00:05:42,750
Well, our friend,
Mr. Bukowski from the DA's office,

95
00:05:42,833 --> 00:05:46,917
needs help on a delicate matter.

96
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:48,833
He's been defrauded by an ex-girlfriend

97
00:05:48,917 --> 00:05:52,250
and wants to file a suit against her
to get his money back.

98
00:05:52,333 --> 00:05:55,292
Yeah. I bought her jewelry,
flew her to Bali for a photo-shoot,

99
00:05:55,375 --> 00:05:57,458
paid off her Volkswagen Passat.
Subscribed to...

100
00:05:57,542 --> 00:05:59,167
But why the Superhuman Law Division?

101
00:05:59,250 --> 00:06:03,208
The girlfriend in question is
a shapeshifting Light Elf from New Asgard.

102
00:06:03,292 --> 00:06:04,417
Wow, Dennis.

103
00:06:04,500 --> 00:06:07,333
Okay. Well, to be fair, I thought
I was dating Megan Thee Stallion.

104
00:06:07,417 --> 00:06:08,417
I'm sorry. What?

105
00:06:08,500 --> 00:06:11,542
Sorry. You thought you were
dating Megan Thee Stallion?

106
00:06:12,167 --> 00:06:15,417

Megan Thee Stallion?

107
00:06:15,500 --> 00:06:17,583

did you not get?

Uh, Mr. Wong. Great entrance.
Perfect timing.

114
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,500
-I really need to take this.
-You may go.

115
00:06:35,583 --> 00:06:38,625
Thank you. Uh, Pug, good luck.

116

118
00:06:41,833 --> 00:06:42,958
Sorry.

119
00:06:43,458 --> 00:06:45,667
Everything Mr. Blonsky told you
is factual.

120
00:06:45,750 --> 00:06:49,042
I extracted him from the prison
against his own wishes,

121
00:06:49,125 --> 00:06:51,083
because I required a worthy opponent

122
00:06:51,167 --> 00:06:53,583
as part of my training
to become Sorcerer Supreme.

123
00:06:53,667 --> 00:06:57,458
And as Sorcerer Supreme, I insist that
he not be punished for my actions.

124
00:06:58,542 --> 00:07:00,875
Again, I am not the one
who will be punishing him.

125
00:07:00,958 --> 00:07:03,708
The parole board will not release him
after seeing this video.

126
00:07:03,792 --> 00:07:07,917
I know what you're thinking, Ms. Walters,
and I'm not erasing everyone's memories.

127
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:09,000
Not again.

128
00:07:09,083 --> 00:07:11,292
That is not what I was thinking.
That is highly unethical.

129
00:07:11,375 --> 00:07:13,708
Yeah, it's also very messy, believe me.

130
00:07:13,792 --> 00:07:16,167
-Okay.
-We'll send him to the Mirror Dimension.

131
00:07:16,250 --> 00:07:18,375
-Don't know what that is, but no.
-Shadow Dimension?

132
00:07:19,542 --> 00:07:23,000
What you can do to help is show up
at the hearing and explain everything.

133
00:07:23,083 --> 00:07:26,542
Very well.
We'll reserve sorcery for strategy B.

how much money in cash and gifts

136
00:07:32,625 --> 00:07:35,542
did you spend on
the Megan Thee Stallion imposter?

137

Oh, man. (GROANS)

138
00:07:38,042 --> 00:07:42,500
How about I just say a number,
and you tell me higher or lower, okay?

139
00:07:42,583 --> 00:07:47,125
Considering that you bought her
a mid-sized sedan, how about $50,000?

140
00:07:48,583 --> 00:07:49,750
100?

141
00:07:50,292 --> 00:07:55,208
-200?
-(CHUCKLES) $200,000? I am not a fool.

142
00:07:56,250 --> 00:08:00,333
-No, it was more like 175.
-100... $175,000?

00:08:01,167 --> 00:08:03,542
That's a house
in parts of the country, Mr. Bukowski.

(CHUCKLES) Yeah, right.

145
00:08:06,375 --> 00:08:08,542
So, are you gonna help me or not?

146
00:08:08,625 --> 00:08:11,875
I'm gonna start building your case,
and I will be in touch, Mr. Bukowski.

147
00:08:13,583 --> 00:08:14,667
All right.

148
00:08:20,708 --> 00:08:21,750

We are here today to determine
whether Emil Blonsky is

185
00:10:28,542 --> 00:10:32,542
suitable for return to society
after having served his minimum sentence.

186
00:10:32,917 --> 00:10:35,458
In light of recent evidence
of a prison escape,

187
00:10:35,542 --> 00:10:38,458
I think we all know how this is gonna go.
So, let's keep this brief.

188
00:10:38,542 --> 00:10:42,875
As Mr. Blonsky's counsel, I would love to
address the alleged prison escape.

189
00:10:42,958 --> 00:10:44,417
We do have a witness

190
00:10:44,500 --> 00:10:48,042
who is able to clear Mr. Blonsky
of any wrongdoing on his part.

191
00:10:48,125 --> 00:10:49,667
Then we'll start with that then.

192
00:10:50,333 --> 00:10:54,958
Well, yes, the witness is prepared
to give a statement

193
00:10:55,792 --> 00:10:57,458

196
00:11:03,250 --> 00:11:07,708
Now hold on. Mr. Blonsky,
do you feel you have been rehabilitated?

197
00:11:07,792 --> 00:11:09,125
Uh...

198
00:11:12,417 --> 00:11:17,375
Let's start by saying
that I feel great remorse,

199
00:11:17,792 --> 00:11:20,875
great shame to those that I've harmed.

200
00:11:21,417 --> 00:11:24,958
So, to answer your question,
yes, I feel I have been rehabilitated.

201
00:11:25,708 --> 00:11:31,167
I've spent every day of my incarceration
focused solely on redemption.

202
00:11:31,250 --> 00:11:33,167
I have changed.

203
00:11:33,792 --> 00:11:37,125

Et cetera.

206
00:11:41,417 --> 00:11:45,208
What Mr. Blonsky is trying to say
is that the man you see before you

207
00:11:45,292 --> 00:11:47,958
is not the same Emil Blonsky as before.

208
00:11:48,042 --> 00:11:51,167
All he wants now
is to be a contributing member of society.

209
00:11:51,250 --> 00:11:54,167
If released,
would you have a place to live?

210
00:11:54,250 --> 00:11:56,375
Yeah. You can rely on that.

211
00:11:57,583 --> 00:12:01,958
Mr. Blonsky does own a plot of land
on which he plans to work and reside.

212
00:12:02,667 --> 00:12:04,083
He's going into farming?

213
00:12:04,167 --> 00:12:08,792
No. Actually, he plans to open
a meditation retreat on the property.

214
00:12:08,875 --> 00:12:11,292
So, just very... Well, you know...

215
00:12:11,375 --> 00:12:16,000
And how does Mr. Blonsky
intend to fund this endeavor?

216
00:12:17,417 --> 00:12:19,500
Mr. Blonsky is currently

217
00:12:19,583 --> 00:12:23,250
in a long-term committed relationship
with several pen pals.

218
00:12:23,333 --> 00:12:26,708
All of whom have pledged
to financially support him.

He's helped countless prisoners
learn how to read.

228

for Emil Blonsky leaving prison.

a prisoner escape, which is a crime.

in many different ways.

to say that under oath?

and nothing but the truth.

Trust me.

371
00:20:55,958 --> 00:20:59,417
Ms. Walters, how would you describe
your relationship to Mr. Bukowski?

372
00:20:59,500 --> 00:21:02,542
We worked together for several years
at the DA's office.

373
00:21:02,625 --> 00:21:05,375
Would you say that
you know Mr. Bukowski fairly well?

374
00:21:05,833 --> 00:21:08,917
Definitely. We worked regularly
on cases together,

375
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:12,917
so I've spent a lot of time
with Mr. Bukowski.

376
00:21:13,292 --> 00:21:16,917
Did he ever share his personal life
with you? Specifically, his dating life.

377
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:19,917
Yes, he would,
prolifically and unprompted.

378
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:21,208
You wanted to know.

379
00:21:22,250 --> 00:21:26,708
How would you characterize Mr. Bukowski
in relation to his romantic life?

380
00:21:28,208 --> 00:21:31,792
Self-absorbed, chauvinistic, conceited.

381
00:21:31,875 --> 00:21:36,583
He once described himself
as a New York 10 and an LA 11.

382
00:21:36,667 --> 00:21:38,042
(LAUGHS)

383
00:21:38,500 --> 00:21:41,208
He nicknamed his office the Dennisphere...

384
00:21:41,292 --> 00:21:43,167
Objection. Relevance.

385
00:21:43,250 --> 00:21:47,667
Mr. Bukowski, need I remind you that
you're not representing yourself here?

386
00:21:48,125 --> 00:21:49,750
And this is your witness.

387
00:21:49,833 --> 00:21:53,375
But I agree.
Mr. Pugliese, get to your point.

388
00:21:53,458 --> 00:21:55,958
It's been stated many times
in this courtroom

389
00:21:56,042 --> 00:21:58,042
that a man of reasonable intelligence

390
00:21:58,125 --> 00:22:01,292
would never think that he was
dating the real Megan Thee Stallion.

391
00:22:01,708 --> 00:22:06,250
In your opinion, Ms. Walters, do you think
that Dennis Bukowski would believe

392
00:22:06,333 --> 00:22:10,125
that he could actually pull
Megan Thee Stallion?

393
00:22:10,208 --> 00:22:15,333
Yes. Dennis Bukowski is
an almost pathologically entitled man.

394
00:22:15,417 --> 00:22:18,708
He would absolutely believe that
he's dating the real Megan Thee Stallion

395
00:22:18,792 --> 00:22:20,875
because he is truly that delusional.

396
00:22:21,583 --> 00:22:23,208
No further questions, Your Honor.

397
00:22:30,083 --> 00:22:35,167
In the case of Bukowski v. Runa,
I award full damages to Dennis Bukowski

398
00:22:35,250 --> 00:22:39,042
in the amount of $175,000.

399
00:22:39,125 --> 00:22:40,250
In addition,

400
00:22:40,333 --> 00:22:46,542
we also sentence the defendant to 60 days
for impersonating a judge.

401

No, no, no, no, no, no.

402
00:22:48,792 --> 00:22:50,792

There's only one Megan Thee Stallion.

Should I go back?

407
00:22:58,583 --> 00:23:01,625
No. No. Please, don't do that.

we could remove her powers

she doesn't victimize anyone else.
