[The Tennyson family is eating dinner at the dining room table as the phone rings]
[gets up from the table and answers] Hello? Tennyson Residence. This isn't a good time, Kevin.
[through phone] You're telling me. I'm up to my nose in smelly goo, trapped in a vat, and DNAliens are coming!
[looks at his parents staring at him as they hear Kevin's voice and waves at them] I'm conferencing Gwen in.
Gwen
[answers the phone] Hello?
I can't get a grip on the wall! Uh-oh. Company.
Gwen
Kevin? Is that you?
Absorb something and bust out of the tank.
What's your phone made of?
Titanium. Why? [looks at his cellphone] Oh.
Ben, you're on punishment! Get off the phone!
Gwen
Guys, I think I know what Kevin's swimming in. According to wifipedia, Castoon has only one export: bat guano.
[busts a hole in the tank, freeing himself] What is guano?
Gwen
Evidently, the berries on the island are radioactive from the nuke testing years ago. When they're eaten by the bats, the resulting waste is the rarest isotope in the world.
Gwen
The radiation is so mild, however, it would take a lot of it to constitute a threat.
Gwen, how much can that freighter carry?
Gwen
50,000 tons.
Guys, I could use a little help.
[takes the phone out of Ben's hand, cutting off their call; annoyed] "No phone" means "no phone!" Go to your room!
[shrugs and walks straight to his room] I can't believe this is happening!
Gwen
We have to go get them out.
You're not going in there. I've been there. It's...
Gwen
I can handle it!
No, you can't! There's too much riding on us being here.
Gwen
You heard her. They need help.
I know. That's why I'm going alone.
Gwen Tennyson
I'm really not sure about your choice, Ben.
No sacrifices. (changes back to Ben)
We lose twice. They're going to finish that gateway and invade, and I'm this... thing. It's over.
See? That's what you DON'T get. (touches Tyler's face)
[The Xenocyte falls on the ground after being removed from Tyler's body]
This is really me. And I-I can remember it all. I grew up in Evanston, and I was in glee club in high school.
I do! [stomps on the Xenocyte with his foot]
(with a smirk as he holds a red object with a curved nozzle) How come you haven't asked me what this is?
I'm worried about the Spidermonkey.
He saved my life. Yours, too.
Gwen Tennyson
What's that, Kevin?
See, Ben? That's a normal level of curiosity. It fell off one of those DNAliens. I'm trying to figure out what it does.
Gwen Tennyson
Grandpa used something like this to clean his ears. You press down on this and boric acid solution comes… [presses the button and a drop of acid hits the floor]
Gwen Tennyson
Guess the DNAliens use stronger acid.
[Ben and Kevin follow Gwen as she uses her powers to scan the damaged traffic light]
Gwen Tennyson
I'm definitely getting something. The mana trail is getting stronger and stronger.
You said that like two hours ago, Gwen.
Gwen Tennyson
Trying to concentrate, Kevin.
For what? It's a wild goose chase.
I don't think so. All those reports of a monster wondering around here, wrecking stuff…
Doesn't mean it's the DNAliens, Ben. It could be a bear that escaped from the zoo.
Gwen Tennyson
No reports of missing animals from any zoo in the entire state.
It must be a DNAlien. What else is strong enough to tear down a traffic light?
And DNAliens are mad at the traffic light why?
Yeah, if it was a girl, it should have a big bow on the side of its head or something.
Gwen Tennyson
[sighs] You didn't pay any attention in health class, did you?
Listen, we can't really be wasting time babysitting this thing.
Gwen Tennyson
But she needs our help, guys. We can't just leave her wandering around the desert.
[As Tiny starts chewing on his car; horrified] WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!
Gwen Tennyson
Don't put that in your mouth! You don't know where it's been.
[Tiny sets Kevin's car down and burps]
[outraged] That's it! OUT!
Gwen Tennyson
She's just a baby! She didn't know!
Gwen, much as I hate siding with Kevin, Tiny has to go back where she came from.
You weren't planning on keeping her, were you?
Doesn't matter. We're stuck with her until nightfall, anyway.
What?! No! Get her out of here while I still have some car left!
I would have a word with the wielder of my Omnitrix... in private.
...Riiiight, like I'm gonna miss this!
Gwen Tennyson
(grabbing Kevin's arm and dragging him away) Kevin Ethan Levin, you're coming with us!
Ethan? Your name is Kevin E. Levin? You just lost all remaining pretense of cool.
(to Gwen) You promised you never tell!
