Goofs
At approx 35:45 David walks into the print room of the newspaper and next to the door is a pin-board that contains the "Run Sheet". From the initial distant shot, the last column of the run sheet is blank. The scene cuts to a closeup of the run sheet, and the last column is now filled with entries written in a thick red permanent marker. The scene cuts back to the distant shot as David walks away and the column is empty again.

Quotes

The Pizza Parlor

David Banner(Bill Bixby) works as a dishwasher in Chicago at a pizza parlor run by two women(played by Julie Cobb & Mary Frann) who become the target of an unethical reporter from the National Register who falsifies evidence of filth in their kitchen for a phony expose. Unfortunately, they get a picture of David, who must infiltrate the paper in order to retrieve the negative(and expose the sleazy reporter) while dodging the attentions of Jack McGee(Jack Colvin) right in his own place of work... Fun episode with a good guest cast(also including Pat Morita) and a struggling Jack McGee given a golden opportunity to catch the Hulk in the last place he ever expected!
