About This Program

The Incredible Bulk is an episode of a programme that falls under the “episode” genre. It presents a concise, self‑contained story that centres on two distinct characters and the challenges they face in their everyday lives. One of the central figures is Ruben, a personal trainer whose profession has been dramatically altered by an unusual physical change: his head has begun to grow. This abnormal development has become so severe that it now stops him from meeting with clients, effectively putting his fitness career on hold. The other focus of the episode is Kaitlin, a woman whose appearance bears the visible signs of long‑term drug use. She is marked by a series of blue discolourations and scars that serve as a stark reminder of her prolonged substance abuse. Both Ruben and Kaitlin are portrayed within the same narrative framework, each dealing with the consequences of their respective conditions. Their stories run parallel, highlighting how physical transformations and lasting damage can interfere with personal ambitions and everyday interactions. The episode therefore concentrates on these two individuals, offering a glimpse into the ways their lives have been reshaped by circumstances beyond their control.
