Scenes with Kevin Levin 295
[reading the sign] "Welcome to Santa Mira."
Kevin Levin
For a guy who's so cool, he sure picked a lame spot to have spring break.
Ken IS totally cool. And he didn't pick where the awesome-mobile broke down.
Kevin Levin
The "Awesome-mobile"?
His car... I told you he's cool.
Kevin Levin
(sarcastic) Oh yeah, who could doubt it.
I say, we hit the garages in town. Find Ken's car, find Ken.
Kevin Levin
Good idea. I mean, how many garages can this whole support? Five -- five garages. One-horse town, five garages?
Five garages so far. And if the Awesome-mobile isn't in this one, we'll have to keep… [spots Ken's car] Bingo!
Kevin Levin
You found a bingo game?
Kevin Levin
That's the Awesome-mobile? That thing makes the Rust Bucket look like a Ferrari!
[finds more slime in the container] More slime?
Okay, that's it. What is that stuff, anyway? What was in here?
[The two workers are revealed to be DNAliens in disguise by a flash of lightning]
Kevin Levin
Check it out. It's the DNA hill-billies.
[The group finds a DNAlien handcuffed in the back of a truck at a diner]
Kevin Levin
[yanks the torn shirt piece out of the alien's mouth] Okay, start talking.
[as his Omnitrix beeps] What is up with you?
Unknown DNA sample acquired.
Ben, you want to look at this. [picks and holds up a torn piece of Grandpa Max's shirt]
[gasps] This is from his favorite shirt!
Kevin Levin
Who's favorite shirt?
Grandpa Max! [grabs the DNAlien with her magic beam; demanding] Tell us who tied you up, now!
DDNAlien
(scared) Max Tennyson. He wanted to find some kid.
DDNAlien
(referring to Grandpa Max) I don't know. He cuffed me and left me here.
Not him. He can take care of himself. The kid. Where is my brother?!
[The three come across Ken, who's nearly turned into a DNAlien]
Kevin Levin
That's Ken? He's actually less cool than his car.
He was fighting us. Whatever they did to him affected his mind.
KKen
What this did to me, is… SET ME FREE! [picks up an unconscious DNAlien and throws it at them]
Kevin Levin
Let's get him!
No! Don't hurt him! [wraps her brother in manna tendrils] He's just sick! [referring to the Xenocyte] It's that thing on him, it's making him do this!
Kevin Levin
Then let's get it off him. [grabs Ken's head and starts pulling him too hard]
Kevin, wait! You're hurting him!
MGrandpa Max
No, but without the focusing lens, this thing will do a pretty good imitation of a hand grenade. I figured it would take out half a mile.
You wouldn't dare! You would be destroyed, and your offspring.
MGrandpa Max
Gwen, throw an energy field around you and your boys and... be a good girl.
(scared) Grandpa Max, no, please!
MGrandpa Max
Sorry, Ben, it's the only way to make sure they can't do to the rest of the world what they did to Ken. You'll have to take it from here. I know you can do it! I believe in you... in all of you. (winks)
(desperately) Grandpa, NOOOOO!
[Grandpa Max presses the button and everything blows up; Gwen covers the team with an energy dome]
Kevin Levin
That was, pretty hardcore.
He… he saved the whole world.
Yeah, he did. For now, but I don't think those things are giving up anytime soon!
I'm saying that it's up for someone to protect this planet. And like it or not... I think it's up to us.
[Ben and Gwen are watching Julie play her tennis match in a tennis court against her opponent, Carol Smith; Julie waves at Ben before continuing her game and he smiles in surprise]
See? She waved. She likes you, you should definitely ask her out.
No way, what if she finds out about the Omnitrix? I don't want her to think I'm weird.
Ben, you are weird, but you're also funny and sensitive and well-mannered. Unlike some people I know. [annoyingly looks up at Kevin, sleeping on the court]
[Julie whacks the ball, then Carol tries to whack it in return but misses, making Julie win, and the crowd cheers]
Kevin Levin
[waking up; groggy] W-what'd I miss?
Go ahead, Ben, now's your chance.
[At Ben's house]
Great. My hair looks stupid, my shirt is wrinkled, and I have a zit the size of Kansas.
Kevin Levin
Yeah? That's one big zit alright.
Ah! How did you get in here?!
Kevin Levin
The usual way. Incidentally, you may wanna fix that hole I punched in your back door before your mother sees it.
Kevin Levin
I sorta did.
Has anyone told you you're a strange and dangerous person?
Kevin Levin
Constantly...but enough about me. Gwen says that you need a favor.
Uh, yeah. See, I wanna go to the pier tonight with Julie.
Kevin Levin
I bet you do.
And, since I don't have a car,
Kevin Levin
Or a license.
Or a license. I was wondering if you could give us a ride.
Kevin Levin
OK.
No jokes, no insults, no blackmail?
Kevin Levin
Nope.
Wow, thanks. Wait. you're gonna wait til we're in the car and you're gonna make my life miserable, aren't you?
Kevin Levin
[Smiles, then slams door] Knobs broken.
Kevin Levin
Now remember, Benny Boy, your mother and I want you home by ten o'clock sharp or you can't go to the disco.
He watches a lot of reruns.
Kevin Levin
Gosh, pumpkin, what do you mean?
You know exactly what I mean. At least when Ben likes a girl, he lets her know. He asks her out. Maturity. Isn't that a novel approach?
Kevin Levin
Ben's got a girlfriend! Ben's got a girlfriend! (laughs)
[Nightime; Ben, Gwen, and Kevin are sitting in Kevin's car]
Kevin Levin
This is crazy. She didn't show yesterday and she's not gonna show tonight.
[Kevin sighs in annoyance. Ben repeatedly pushes the lock and unlock button on the door. He turns to see Kevin glaring at him. Ben opens his mouth as if to say something, but turns away. Ben pushes the lock and unlock button again.]
Kevin Levin
[Annoyed] Do I look like I'm kidding, Tennyson?
[Annoyed] You guys! I have to find a bathroom.
Kevin Levin
Lots of trees around.
[Gets out of Kevin's car] There's a gas station a couple miles back.
Kevin Levin
I'll drive you.
No. Keep watch. I'll be right back. [Closes the door and walks away]
[Ben and Kevin continue sitting in the car. Ben repeatedly pushes the lock and unlock button on the door. Kevin gets so enraged that he grabs Ben and gets ready to attack him.]
[Points at Verdona approaching the tree] Look.
[Kevin turns to see Verdona approaching the tree.]
[Gwen is sitting on the roof.]
Kevin Levin
[Joins Gwen] You would go up on the roof. Some of us can't fly, you know.
[Joins Gwen and Kevin] Dude, be supportive.
This is not how I expected my day to go.
Still, it's pretty cool to find out about your powers, right? Grandma could teach you to do all that stuff she can do.
I'd be gone for a long time, I guess.
Kevin Levin
Maybe forever.
I've always felt like an outsider, like I'm in the wrong place. But then, I think, oh, that's high school for you.
We'll miss you if you go.
Sure, but we've been recruiting more and more Plumber kids, so we'd still have a pretty, powerful team.
When I was trying to decide whether to use my powers again, you told me it was my choice. That's all I'm saying. Anyway, maybe you owe it to yourself to try turning into a cosmic mana master.
It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Kevin? Do you feel the same way?
Kevin Levin
No. Why would you even think about it? I want you around. The whole thing's lame.
[Gwen kisses Kevin on the cheek and leaves. As Gwen leaves, Kevin turns to watch her.]
Kevin Levin
Lame! Lame! Lame!
Kevin Levin
Her body?
Destroy my body? You're not serious.
How do you know whether you like something if you don't try it?
[Kevin lifts a boulder ready to smash Verdona with it, but then he pauses]
Kevin Levin
Dude, I don't know if I could pound your grandma.
That's okay. We're teaching her to mind her mana. [makes monkey-like laugh and Verdona laughs as well]
Kevin Levin
Was not.
[Verdona frees herself from Spidermonkey's web trap, rises into the air, and starts absorbing all the mana of living things]
She's drawing mana from millions of living things around her!
Kevin Levin
The grass.
I'm really enjoying this!
Kevin Levin
(yelling at Cash and J.T.) Hey! What did you do to my car?!
(tells J.T.) Grab something!
(puts hand on Kevin's shoulder) Kevin.
They won't get far. (turns on Omitrix)
I can fly after them. I'll find them.
Then what? Give up your secret? Like you said, they're not worth it. Besides, they can't hide forever.
Kevin Levin
Knock-knock. (kicks open the door) Don't bother hiding. Your weasel friend already told me you were here.
(unseen) Levin? I don't have any beef with you.
Kevin Levin
That's where we differ. You trashed my car.
(Cash steps out from the shadows, revealing his right arm with alien technology grown over it)
Kevin Levin
(smiling) Okay, that's a surprise.
Pretty cool, huh? I can also do this! (blasts a hole through the concrete wall) You were just about to leave, right?
Kevin Levin
No. This is good. This is REALLY good.
What are you talking about?
Kevin Levin
See, now that you're all jacked up, I don't have to hold back.
[The team arrive at the abandoned military base of Los Soledad]
Kevin Levin
You didn't need to come. Gwen and I could've handled this alone. It's nothing really.
It doesn't sound like nothing. Weird noises, unearthly lights, rumors of weird creatures out here.
Kevin Levin
Yeah, the dudes I heard it from aren't totally reliable.
GTGwen Tennsyon
Isn't that like a big bad boy thing to do? Come out here to the ghost town to drag race.
Kevin Levin
How should I know? I just know them from autoshop.
[Ben and Gwen spot a graffiti on the wall that reads: "Kevin Rules!"]
Grandpa Max said Los Soledad used to be a big military base back in the 50's. Some kind of research facility.
Kevin Levin
Yeah, must've been some serious research. Check out these walls. Fifty years later and there's still no way in. [spots some large holes in the walls] No way! These weren't here.
[They enter the base]
Did anyone notice some of them are vaguely person-shaped?
Weird. Maybe something, I don't know, burned through the wall.
Kevin Levin
Like what?
The same thing that burned these weird trails everywhere.
[Zoom out to reveal burned ash trails everywhere]
Look. [points to a skeleton of a bird on the ground]
This is a bird. [picks up a fossil skeleton of a lizard] And these are lizard bones. They're fossilized.
And they're not the only thing. It's like someone turned this slate into sand just by standing on it.
