The Lottery is episode seventeen in season three of the live-action TV series The Incredible Hulk. It originally aired on February 15, 1980 on CBS.
Synopsis
David is befriended by a newsstand owner, Harry Henderson, who also happens to be a retired con artist. David is ecstatic when Harry gives him a lottery ticket that ends up winning a $250,000 prize. The new influx of cash can buy some sophisticated science equipment to help him perform the research needed to find a cure for his transformations. Unfortunately, he can't collect the money because doing so would reveal his identity. To get around this problem, he asks Harry to collect the money on his behalf. However, he has other ideas that lead to a great deal of trouble for David.
