Bad news, Ben. Vilgax is back.
You're kidding me. Last time I threw him into space.
I'm sure he remembers. Vilgax has issued a conqueror's challenge to you.
Kevin
Ben can't accept that!
The Galvans set it up to limit the destruction caused by interplanetary wars. Rather than risk mass destruction, both planets can choose a single warrior to represent them. The winner becomes the ruler of both worlds.
Kevin
I've been, uh, acquiring stuff we need to fix the Omnitrix for months.
Years, if you count back to when you were trying to steal it from me.
Kevin
(friendly warning) Let it go, Ben.
Kevin
Let me bring you up to speed, hero. Thanks to you, I can't turn back. I'm a monster.
I'm sorry, Kevin. I didn't know. I was just kidding around.
(to Kevin) Stop saying that. You're not a monster. (touches Kevin's hand) Use your powers. Absorb my skin.
Kevin
I'm trying. It doesn't work. I'm trapped like this forever.
(The team come upon Chromastone bashing away at an amusement park ride at the pier)
I'm not quite the smooth talker he used to be.
Without your guiding intelligence…
…such as it is, Chromastone's nothing but instinct.
Um, here Chromastone! (whistles) Good Chromastone!
Kevin
(sarcastically) Oh, yeah. There's your guiding intelligence in action.
Vilgax has beaten the greatest heroes of 10 worlds.
I’m not worried. I beat him when I was just a kid.
You should be worried. Those heroes he beat -- now he has all their powers, too.
Kevin
Not to mention that your Omnitrix is busted.
Kevin
You broke it, and turned me into this!
Kind of an improvement, if you ask me.
[The team gets caught in Spidermonkey's spider web and Spidermonkey ties up Gwen]
Kevin
He's gonna lay eggs in Gwen's head! And when they hatch, they'll eat her brain!
Kevin
What? You've laid eggs before.
[The team have located Goop which he's under the sewer]
Kevin
Got one. We’re right on top of it.
Try not to hit it with your car this time.
You sure Goop's down there?
It's a sewer. Of course there's goop down there.
[Down in the sewer]
Phew! Smells like a sewer down here!
I'm not kidding, Ben! No more sewer jokes!
Smells like a plan to me. [Gwen hits him] OW! Hey, I wonder if there are any alligators down here.
Kevin
Alligators?
Yeah. I heard that people get baby alligators as pets and flush them down the toilet. They grow gigantic in the sewers!
Kevin
Maybe I should go up and guard the exit.
Ooooohhhh! Big tough Kevin is scared of alligators!
There are no alligators. That's just an urban myth.
Kevin
Yeah, and we're supposed to be an urban myth too and anyway, you're scared of spiders.
[Frightened] Are there spiders down here?
Kevin
Gwen!
Ben, don't shoot fire balls! This tunnel is full of methane!
Full of what?! Lots of fertilizer down there.
I asked you not to do any more of those jokes.
Kevin
Are you sorry you blew us up?
Her... maybe. You, not so much. Hey! Cut that out!
We've only got an hour before you have to fight Vilgax.
Kevin
And we're maybe 40 minutes away from Way Big's position. I'm not a math major, but...
Yeah. Here's what we're going to...
It's almost showtime, Ben, and I've been thinking. Vilgax is Plumber business. Good as you are, you're still just a kid. I'll take him on.
This is my fight, grandpa. Vilgax challenged me, and I'm the one with the Omnitrix.
Kevin
At least most of it.
You've got less than an hour, Ben.
I'll be there. And I'll win. Love you, grandpa.
How can you beat Vilgax without Way Big? He's your most powerful transformation.
Kevin
That's how you beat him last time, right? And that's how I'll beat him this time, too. I'll just stall him.
Kevin
Until?
After the battle, I will personally remove the Omnitrix and present it to Vilgax. Speaking of whom...
Ben 10, I've come to kill you and conquer your world. Is now a bad time? Are you ready to die, Ben?
Can we skip the threats and get to the "fight" part? There's a Sumo Slammers marathon at eight, and I forgot to set the DVR (Vilgax swings his sword at him). I'll take that as a "yes".
Your energy beams are no match for the shield of Ziegel.
[Vilgax roars]
Big...Chill! Nothing like a refreshing dip on a hot summer day. And, Vilgax, you are that dip.
You know what they say... "cold hands..."
[Vilgax growls]
You've got to let me finish my quips, Vilgax. It's sort of a rule.
Keep joking, child. It'll make my victory all the sweeter.
Hey, you can't touch me when I'm intangible!
[Big Chill groans]
Why... Why don't you pick on somebody your own size? Or better yet...
Yield, and your demise will be mercifully brief.
Kevin
Don't listen to him, Ben!
Yeah! There's something bigger than Humongousaur.
Do not interfere with this contest!
Kevin
Who's interfering?
And now... Vilgax is going to get a taste of Way Big!
Chromastone? Oh, man! Aah! What you gonna do now, tough guy?!
I am victorious! Fetch me my prize!
I have it, master... the Omnitrix. This entire world belongs to you.
[Psyphon gasps]
By the rules of the galactic code, as ratified by the Casey-Kelly accords, you have lost this contest. You must leave this world and never attack it again. Do you acknowledge?
I do. But know this Ben Tennyson. I will have my vengeance upon you.
Sure thing. Get outta here. We were on TV all over the world. So much for my secret.
Well, I used plumber tech to block the transmission about halfway through. Nobody saw Ben Tennyson.
What happened to Chromastone?
Who knows? This thing is broken. But the team's still working, right?
[Gwen gives Kevin a look as if to say "Are you going to or not?"]
Kevin
I was gonna.
