“Correction. We are going to try out the hot tub,” Tony says, though his interests lie in the window itself. The Hulk has been known to leap insane distances and to go for miles by bounding alone. He’s seen videos of straight jumping without a running start and he has no doubt that if the Hulk had wanted to leave, he could have done it whenever he wanted. Window or no window. He just doesn’t know why he suddenly wanted to, after two years. Had he been that happy here?

The question is concerning and the conflagration when Banner mentions that this suite was less of a room and more of a supposed prison.

“They thought they could keep him in,” Tony says. “But joke’s on them. He stayed because he wanted to stay.” Likely due to that rad effigy of him on the building itself. “He really liked it here. He liked it enough that he didn’t care that these people thought he was a captive.”

So weird.

And kind of wonderful too. For the Hulk to be at peace in supposed captivity meant that he had been fulfilled.

“I think Thor ruined the Big Guy’s fun.”
