Ben Tennyson
[coughs and speaks in a weak voice while laying down in the backseat of Kevin's car] I don't think I'm gonna make it.
Hang in there, hero. We're almost there.
[The team pulls up at Mr. Smoothy]
WWoman
[through speaker box] May I take your order?
One mango-blueberry with extra echinacea, stat!
Ben Tennyson
[sits up and sneezes] Better make it a double.
Okay, Ben, it's just a common cold.
Ben Tennyson
There's nothing common about this cold, Gwen. It's epic! [blows his nose into his hand]
[disgusted] You are completely disgusting, use a tissue. [gives him a tissue]
Ben Tennyson
I was gonna wipe my hand on my pants.
I swear, Ben, you're gonna get us all sick.
[hands Ben the prepared smoothie] Here you go, Tennyson. An old Levin family cure.
Ben Tennyson
Really? Smoothies?
Nah. [pours a yellowish-brown color medicine in his smoothie] The smoothie is so you'll be able to choke down the real cure. It's bitteroot. [Ben takes a sip] They call it that because… [Ben makes a vomiting sound and his mouth gets stuck to the straw as he stops drinking; moves his car to a parking space] Anyway, it's good for a cold. Also, it's supposed to ward off bear attacks. Drink up.
Ben Tennyson
[muffled] I can't. My lips are puckered shut.
He says he can't. His lips are puckered shut.
You can understand that? You should be a dentist.
[surprised to witness Sugilite flying] I didn't know Chromastone could fly.
He can do far more than that.
[Gwen binds Tetrax]
Why don't you tell us all about it?
After we put me back together?
Okay, that's pretty much all of you.
Wait! What are you gonna do with that?
We don't know what'll happen if I transform when I'm in pieces like this.
[presses the Omnitrix symbol] Doesn't matter. Eventually, it's gonna time out anyway. [Diamondhead turns back into Ben, looking just as usual] Everything where it's supposed to be?
Ben Tennyson
[sneezes loudly] Just like before. How does this silicon-based life-form get a cold anyway?
From touching doorknobs. Doorknobs and keyboards are covered with germs.
Ben Tennyson
That wasn't what I-- never mind.
That's no shooting star! That's…
[Vilgax emerges from the smoke]
Ben Tennyson
Vilgax!
Ben Tennyson
Maybe I should have stayed in bed after all.
You stole from me, Tetrax. Give me what is mine, and your death will be quick.
Ben Tennyson
[Talking about Vilgax] I'll handle him! [Attempts to turn into Way Big, but ends up as Humungousaur]
Way Big! Oh man... Stupid Omnitrix. [Pulls a street lamp out of the ground] Get ready to rumble, Vilgax, 'cause Humungousaur is gonna... gonna... gonna...
He's gonna blow! [dives with Gwen out of the way while Tetrax runs for cover. Humungousaur sneezes out a pile of snot which lands on Kevin's car]
We can't beat him like this! Fall back and regroup!
Cowards! There's nowhere you can hide from me!
Float like a butterfly, sting like a-- Huh? Unh!
(Vilgax grabs him)
I'll squash you like the insignificant insect you are!
(as Vilgax chases him) Unh! Flying's no fun if everybody can do it.
Ben Tennyson
Aw, man!
Ben Tennyson
Aah! Ugh!
I've got an idea. Keep him busy.
The crystal, Tetrax! There is no escape for you! Fools! You're just prolonging the inevitable!
See? Told you I had a plan. I've got another one, too.
Do you ever have a plan that doesn't involve crawling around in the sewers?
You're welcome. And stop whispering. We're half a mile away from where Vilgax is looking.
Ben Tennyson
Good point. Even with his superhearing, he can't pick us out over all the people talking in the desert. AH-AH-CHOO! [Ben sneezes loudly, with the sound of it echoing down the sewer. Everyone glares at him] Come on. What are the odds that he--
[explosion]
Ben Tennyson
It's dead.
And Chromastone? Then all is lost.
[moans] No. The stars are still aligned. There is still time. But I'm too weak to continue. Ben... please.
[Sugilite gives Ben the crystal]
What are you supposed to do?
Ben Tennyson
I don't know.
[activates the Omnitrix]
That was incredible! Everyone on the planet is alive again!
Ben Tennyson
Not everyone.
Ben Tennyson
Chromastone! You're alive!
Not Chromastone. He is still in your Omnitrix. I am Sugilite, Guardian of Petropia.
Ben Tennyson
I think this belongs to you. [gives the crystal to Sugilite]
I am in your debt, as are all Crystalsapiens.
[Everyone cheers for Ben]
We're never gonna hear the end of this, are we?
Ben Tennyson
Thanks for the ride home, Tetrax.
It's the least I can do, Ben.
We don't want to hold you up. You must be anxious to get back to your friends.
I am, but first, I have a score to settle with Vilgax.
Ben Tennyson
Are you sure that's such a great idea? I mean he's pretty much invulnerable.
Ben Tennyson
You don't need them to take on little old me...
Ben Tennyson
Too bad you're not fighting just little old me [Transforms into Rath] RAAAATH!
I always wanted a piece of you anyway.
LEMME TELL YA SOMETHIN', MANNY ARMSTRONG!!! YOU WANNA PIECE OF RATH?!!! YOU GOT A PIECE!!! BUT YOU JUST BIT OFF AN EYE BIGGER THAN YOUR STOMACH CAN CHEW!!!!!
Is that all you got? 'cause that was weak. [Continues fighting Rath, gets Rath in headlock] You're not so tough! I don't know why everyone's so scared of you!
THEN LEMME SHOW YA, PIPSQUEAK!!! [Starts using wrestling moves against Manny] POLARIS PILEDRIVER!! ANTARIAN ARM BAR!! OPHIUCHUS FACE-PLANT!! SIRIUS BUTT-KICKING!!
So, is that "Sirius" like the star, or "serious" like important?
Just... checking. [passes out]
Ben Tennyson
[trying to make himself warm] I can't believe you guys ejected me into space! [shivering] That's-that's just wrong!
[shocked with the other's to see Ben alive] What's going on over here?
MGrandpa Max
Let me use the emergency thrusters to put us back into a safe orbit and then I'll explain.
Ben Tennyson
This satellite isn't a storage facility. It's a training station.
This was all just a test?
MGrandpa Max
The "Ben being out of control and attacking me" scenario was a test.
Ben Tennyson
But not "the satellite about to crash into London" part. We really knocked this thing out of orbit.
Cool! [gets hit by Helen by her elbow] What?
MGrandpa Max
You put the safety of others ahead of your own lives.
Ben Tennyson
Next stop, Plumber's Academy.
[shocked with the others, questioning Helen] Did he just say Plumber's Academy?
We're gonna be real Plumbers!
MGrandpa Max
Make me proud.
(Helen and Ben both hug Max, while Pierce, Manny and Alan get into a little conversation thus ending the episode)
RGRobot Guard
[mechanical, commanding and repetetive tone] Halt! Return to your cell! Halt! Return to your cell! Halt! Return to your cell! Halt! Return to your cell!
[Rath casts the Forever Knights] You tin cans want to tangle with Rath? Come on! Let's do it! There'e enough of me for the lot of ya!
Wait. New plan. [The Forever Knights screamed and ran away flee] Run away! Run away!
[the Forever Knights run away but find Kevin blocking their path]
[Kevin crushes the Forever Knights] Bad idea.
[the knights run away again and find Gwen]
Lady or the tiger, boys. Your choice. Okay, not really.
[Rath bound the Forever Knights]
[taunting, confidenting and provocative tone] Want to try for two falls out of three? Huh?
Ben
[defianting tone] Be that way. [sarcastically tone] See if I care. [curiously tone] So, the Forever Knights aren't sneaking around anymore?
They're definitely getting bolder.
But they're not getting any smarter. Come on. Hop in. I'll drop you guys off at home.
Ben
Can we stop by Mr. Smoothy's on the way?
[Ben, Gwen and Kevin are driving] Not tonight. I've got to get home.
Ben
To be honest, I'm surprised you even have a home.
I don't really stay there, but my mom needed a place.
So that garage your friend lets you use...
It's at my mom's place. What? You think I live in a tent in the woods?
Ben
Either there or in some cool underground cave.
What do you know? I'm actually on time for a... No! Mom?! Mom?! Please!
KSKevin's mom
Kevin. [Kevin's mother brings a paper shopping bag] I was out shopping.
KSKevin's mom
It... it looks like we were robbed.
The TV's still here, and your jewelry box. Looks more like the place was searched.
KSKevin's mom
Honey, there's something I should have told you a long time ago.
Ben
(to Gwen) Hey, Gwen, "if a sailboat drops a - foot anchor line and drifts until the line is tight and the anchor line makes an angle of 80 degrees with the water line, how deep is the water?"
Ben
(to Gwen) Oh, you know me. I like to think about things.
(to Ben) If I give you the answers, you'll never learn anything.
Ben
Hey, I thought no child was supposed to be left behind.
If you don't pass trig, I'm pretty sure that's not true.
I thought you had plans. What's up?
Ben
Forget it. She won't even give me one lousy answer.
Not a joke, Tennyson. What can either of you tell me about an alien creep called Ragnarok?
Ben
Never heard of him. What are you working on?
None of your business. I need to find the guy is all.
I didn't ask for help. I asked for information. If you don't have any, stay out of this.
Right. Like that's gonna happen.
Ben
I'll get my jacket.
