Gwen Tennyson quotes from Ben 10: Alien Force

I've been waiting for you to show up. After all, you're the time-lost Gwen, the last link to a less-appealing past.

Gwen

How do you know all that?

Magic, my dear. I love this new world your meddling created. I'm not letting you change it back.

Are you two done talking yet? Cause I'm totally gonna kill her again.

You must learn patience my dear niece.

But not right away. First i'm gonna kill...

Gwen

You need to stop saying that.

Gwen

Hold them off, Ben. I need time to cast a spell.

Ben

And that'll fix everything? Do what you can. I trust you.

Professor Paradox

Has been quite a day, hasn't it?

Gwen

[startled] Would you stop doing that!

Professor Paradox

Oh. Very well, of I go. [walks away]

Gwen

No! Please, don't go anywhere!

Professor Paradox

Actually in my case, it's less of a "where" than it is a "when".

Gwen

You know what happened here?

Professor Paradox

You happened. When you went back in time and kept Kevin from mutating.

Gwen

But that was the plan.

Professor Paradox

And every plan has unintended consequenses. For instance, Hex and Charmcaster tried to take over the world, as is their want. You, Ben and Kevin swung into action, you were humanity's last line of defense. Only, there was a weak link.

Gwen

Me?

Professor Paradox

Oh no, dear. Not you. Kevin. Because you went into the past and undid that explosion, you kept him from mutating. Ergo, the new Kevin, or, eh, the old Kevin, lacked the powers that would have allowed him to stop Hex and so the bad guys won.

Gwen

I didn't know.

Professor Paradox

I warned you that time travel is for immortals and fools. I'm the only immortal hereabouts. You do the math.

Gwen

Where are Ben and Kevin?

Gwen

Huh?!

Professor Paradox

Careful. Gravity is not your friend.

Gwen

Kevin. What did she do to thim?

Professor Paradox

It amused her to bind him with the same spell she uses to control her rock creatures.

Oh, Clumsy, Clumsy Kevin! (chuckles)

Kevin

Unh! Unh!

Gwen

I'll save you, Kevin! I promise.

Professor Paradox

That's the sort of thing that got you in trouble in the first place.

Gwen

And Ben?

Professor Paradox

He fought bravely, but eventually, they caught him too. Pity. After you died, he was the planet's last hope.

Gwen

No! Dead?! Me?!

Professor Paradox

Yes! Dead! You! Why are we talking this way?

Gwen

I'm not dead. I'm right here.

Professor Paradox

Yes. That's one of the odd things about time travel.

Gwen

I have to change everything back... make it the way it was.

Professor Paradox

I suppose it wouldn't do any harm to try. However, stealing the book of spells won't be quite so easy this time around, what with all those Rock Monsters, Hex and Charmcaster's heightened powers. Ah, youth. They never listen.

Gwen

Aah!

(conversation continues)...Are you sure?

You will never forgive yourself if you let this happen.

Gwen

Don't listen to her! I'm from her future and she doesn't know what she's talking about!

Oh come on! How do I know you're not an impostor?

Gwen

Ugh, the lock on our locker is broken, we just leave it hanging there so it looks closed...

Alright, you're me, but I still think we should save Kevin.

You guys need to make up our mind!

Gwen

Already done. Paradox was right! We have to let it happen the way it did the first time.

We can't keep Kevin from mutating?

Gwen

No... we can't, (puts hand on Past Gwen 1's forehead and wipes memory) and just to make sure she doesn't try—i'll make her forget everything that happened... (turns her around and walks off with Past Gwen #2) Come on...(walks off) we don't belong here...

Gwen

(after fighting Charmcaster and sending her to the ground) Killing me is not cool! (hits Charmcaster with her mana again)

Gwen

Ben?!

Ben

Gwen? But I saw Charmcaster. You were fighting her, and she...

Gwen

I know, Ben. It's all my fault.

Ben

I-I don't understand.

Gwen

The Omnitrix... when it blew up... only i-it didn't, but it should have and it would have if only I hadn't tried to fix everything.

Ben

Um, I know I'm kind of messed up, but you're not making any sense.

Gwen

I'll explain when I get you out of here.

Oh, sure. Like that's going to happen.

Ben

You handle the rock monsters. I'll take Charmcaster.

Gwen

No, Ben, you're hurt.

Ben

I already lost you once. I'm not gonna let that happen again.

Swampfire

Swampfire!

Tempestas! Aah!

Gwen

Kevin, no! Aah!

It's time to write the last chapter in this sad little saga.

Swampfire

Thanks anyway, Hex. But I'm not much of a reader! Let's get out of here before they have a chance to...

Gwen

Hold them off, Ben. I need time to cast a spell.

Ben

And that'll fix everything? Do what you can. I trust you.

Gwen

Quis Quondam Eram Afflictus. Iam Vicis Mos Redintegro. Quis Venit Pro --

Stop!

Gwen

Mos Nusquam Esse!

Are you sure?

You will never forgive yourself if you let this happen.

Gwen

Don't listen to her! They're from her future and she doesn't know what she's talking about.

Oh, come on! How do I know you're not an impostor?

Gwen

(sighs) The lock on our locker is broken. We leave it hanging there so it looks closed.

All right, you're me. But I still think we should save Kevin.

You guys need to make up our mind.

Gwen

Already done. Paradox was right. We have to let it happen the way it did the first time.

We can't keep Kevin from mutating?

Gwen

No. We can't. And just to make sure she doesn't try, I'm gonna make her forget everything that happened. Come on. We don't belong here.

Ben, that doesn't look right. Turn it off!

Kevin

Never mind that. It's overloading. Dump the watch!

Ben

It'll take too long! Run for it, both of you!

Kevin

Maybe I can...

Ben

What have you been doing up here all day? You missed the whole game.

Gwen

I was working on a project. I lost track of time.

Kevin

Want to go to Mr. Smoothy? It's Ben's treat. What was that for?

Gwen

I... don't know.

Professor Paradox

Hello, young persons.

Ben

Paradox? What are you doing here?

Gwen

Is something wrong?

Professor Paradox

No. Everything's fine.

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.

Kevin Levin

Hang in there, hero. We're almost there.

Gwen Tennyson

Look! There it is!

[through speaker box] May I take your order?

Kevin Levin

One mango-blueberry with extra echinacea, stat!

Ben Tennyson

[sits up and sneezes] Better make it a double.

Gwen Tennyson

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]

Gwen Tennyson

[disgusted] You are completely disgusting, use a tissue. [gives him a tissue]

Ben Tennyson

I was gonna wipe my hand on my pants.

Gwen Tennyson

I swear, Ben, you're gonna get us all sick.

Kevin Levin

[hands Ben the prepared smoothie] Here you go, Tennyson. An old Levin family cure.

Ben Tennyson

Really? Smoothies?

Kevin Levin

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.

Kevin Levin

What?

Gwen Tennyson

He says he can't. His lips are puckered shut.

Kevin Levin

You can understand that? You should be a dentist.

Gwen Tennyson

Ben? Are you okay?

Sugilite

Not Ben.

He's right. He's Chromastone. I'm Ben.

Gwen Tennyson

How?

Like I ever understood how this works.

[surprised to witness Sugilite flying] I didn't know Chromastone could fly.

He can do far more than that.

Gwen Tennyson

Why don't you tell us all about it?

After we put me back together?

Kevin Levin

Okay, that's pretty much all of you.

"Pretty much"?

Kevin Levin

It's all we could find.

Gwen Tennyson

Wait! What are you gonna do with that?

Kevin Levin

Change him back.

We don't know what'll happen if I transform when I'm in pieces like this.

Kevin Levin

[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?

I've never had one.

Kevin Levin

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…

Ben Tennyson

Vilgax!

Vilgax

Where is my crystal?

Ben Tennyson

Maybe I should have stayed in bed after all.

Vilgax

You stole from me, Tetrax. Give me what is mine, and your death will be quick.

Get behind me!

Vilgax

Fool!

Ben Tennyson

[Talking about Vilgax] I'll handle him! [Attempts to turn into Way Big, but ends up as Humungousaur]

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...

Kevin Levin

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]

Gwen Tennyson

Ugh, gesundheit!

Kevin Levin

You are so washing that.

Gwen Tennyson

Aah! Ugh!

We can't beat him like this! Fall back and regroup!

Jetray!

Vilgax

Cowards! There's nowhere you can hide from me!

It's almost time.

Float like a butterfly, sting like a-- Huh? Unh!

Vilgax

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!

Gwen Tennyson

Ben!

Ben Tennyson

Aah! Ugh!

Gwen Tennyson

Unh!

Kevin Levin

I've got an idea. Keep him busy.

Vilgax

The crystal, Tetrax! There is no escape for you! Fools! You're just prolonging the inevitable!

Kevin Levin

See? Told you I had a plan. I've got another one, too.

Gwen Tennyson

Do you ever have a plan that doesn't involve crawling around in the sewers?

Kevin Levin

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--

Ben Tennyson

There it is!

Petropia. I never thought I'd see it again.

Gwen Tennyson

But where's Chromastone?

Ben Tennyson

Look... down there!

Gwen Tennyson

He's in trouble! Hurry!

Vilgax

Any last words?

Sugilite

I must protect my people... have mercy!

Vilgax

Mercy? Never heard of it! [takes the crystal]

Sugilite

Aah!

The crystal?

Ben Tennyson

It's dead.

And Chromastone? Then all is lost.

Sugilite

[moans] No. The stars are still aligned. There is still time. But I'm too weak to continue. Ben... please.

Kevin Levin

What are you supposed to do?

Ben Tennyson

I don't know.

But Diamondhead does!

He's done it!

Gwen Tennyson

That was incredible! Everyone on the planet is alive again!

Ben Tennyson

Not everyone.

Sugilite

Yes, Ben... everyone.

Ben Tennyson

Chromastone! You're alive!

Sugilite

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]

Sugilite

I am in your debt, as are all Crystalsapiens.

Kevin Levin

We're never gonna hear the end of this, are we?

Gwen Tennyson

Not ever.

Ben Tennyson

Thanks for the ride home, Tetrax.

It's the least I can do, Ben.

Gwen Tennyson

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.

Maybe. Maybe not.

[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

[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!

Forever Knight

Wait. New plan. [The Forever Knights screamed and ran away flee] Run away! Run away!

Kevin

[Kevin crushes the Forever Knights] Bad idea.

Gwen

Lady or the tiger, boys. Your choice. Okay, not really.

Rath

[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?

Gwen

They're definitely getting bolder.

Kevin

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?

Kevin

[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.

Gwen

Nice.

Kevin

I don't really stay there, but my mom needed a place.
