Get off my station!
Not a problem. Soon as I get Argit.
Ben TennysonThis isn't about Argit! This is about you and me!
Don't flatter yourself. Your turn'll come.
Ben Tennyson(imitates tannoy sound) This is your captain speaking. Welcome aboard Rustbucket Spaceways. Please keep your seat-belts fastened until it is safe to move about the--
(cuts Ben off) Would you go already?!
Ben Tennyson[to Argit's lifeless body] You can get up now.
He's dead, son.
Ben TennysonNo, he's playing dead. Come on, Argit. Show's over.
[slight pause before Argit wakes up]
Is he gone yet? Hey, if I hadn't shut off my pulse, he would've kept hitting me!
Shut off your pulse?
Ben TennysonHow do you think a species that obnoxious managed to survive so long?
Such as?
You assaulted two of my cadets, not to mention the fourteen the warrants for you arest. Lock him up.
You ain't serious.
Oh, yes, we is. Or "are".
Now that we is genuine cadets.
Or "are".
I am having a very bad day.
I got off easy. You should've seen what he did to the others.
Ben TennysonPierce? Helen?
And Manny. And some guy named Dr. Viktor. I didn't understand what Kevin wanted from us - until now.
Ben TennysonYour energy. And he's never gonna stop... unless I stop him... for good.
No, I won't help you!
Ben TennysonIf you won't use your powers to track him down, I'll just go find him myself!
But it's Kevin!
Ben TennysonWake up and smell "the end of the world", Gwen! He's out of control!
He's our friend!
Ben TennysonWas our friend.
We'll figure out someway to save him.
Ben TennysonHe's too far gone. Either we save Kevin, or we save the world.
Kevin's a menace. Your friendship aside, the only responsible move is to take him down with all necessary force.
Ben TennysonThen I don't understand why you're talking to me.
It's the logical move. It's the safest move. It's the sensible move.
Ben TennysonBut?
It's not the Ben move. You trust people, you give them second chances, and they live up to your expectations. Kevin was a sociopath when you were kids, but you trusted him anyway.
Ben TennysonLook how that worked out.
He's turned into a fine young man - a hero a dozen times over.
Ben TennysonBut now he's a monster.
True - and I'd put him down like a mad dog - but I never thought YOU would. You always find another way.
Ben TennysonWhen I thought you were dead, I had to do a lot of growing up.
You did fine.
Ben TennysonFor a while. But then I let my fame go to my head. I've been as big a jerk these last few months as I ever was. [pauses] Aren't you gonna argue with me?
Not when you're right.
Ben TennysonI've had fun, but I always told myself that when the situation got serious, so would I.
I'm not going to argue with you, Ben. I just wanted to make sure you'd really thought about this.
Ben TennysonI have, Grandpa. I'm sorry about what's going to happen to Kevin - really, I am - but this isn't kid stuff anymore. Play time's over.
Ben TennysonYou brought Darkstar into this? And he's going to act like our friend again, right?
He's the only one who can help Kevin.
Ben Tennyson(sarcastically) Sure.
But I CAN help because you don't understand Kevin and I do.
We both have an insatible craving for energy.
Ben TennysonAnd you're evil.
Kevin's not evil. Somewhere deep down he's still our friend.
No, lovely Gwen, he's not your friend anymore. He just looks like him. He's... an empty shell, knowing only a hunger that must be fed. That craving is his weakness.
Ben TennysonWhat's supposed to happen when Kevin gets here?
That's where I come in.
Ben TennysonDo I know y- Cooper?!
I had a growth spurt.
Yes you did.
Hi Gwen. Always good to, (blushes) y-you know, help out.
Ben TennysonAnd if it DOESN'T work?
You already know the answer, Tennyson. There is but one way to deal with a mad dog.
But it's not going to come to that. It's going to work!
No. All we have to do is...
Ben TennysonThere's no "we." Not this time. I'm the one who put Kevin in the position where he had to absorb that energy. It's my fault that he's lost control, and everything he's done since, all those people he's hurt, all those people he's going to hurt, that's my fault, too.
You've gotta let me try.
Ben TennysonI will but only because I know you're going to fail.
Put him down, Kevin.
You don't tell me what to do!
I said "Put him down!" Are you listening to me, son?
You're not my real father! You don't tell me what to do! [sets Grandpa Max down]
You're right, I'm not, but you were four years old when I married your mother, and I raised you like my own!
So?
So? So you're going to listen!
You got nothin' to say to me. You tried to take my real dad's place, you convinced my ma to kick me out on the street when I was eleven years old…
We didn't kick you out, Kevin! You demolished our house!
Whatever. If ma really loved dad, she would have NEVER remarried!
You watch your mouth. Your mother loved your late father more than she loved me - and YOU more than EITHER ONE of us.
[starts to walk into the house but Harvey blocks his way] Step aside, Harvey. I'm here to see Gwen.
So you can drain her powers? Max told me what you've been doing. I'm not gonna let this happen.
How are you gonna stop me? You hiding my ma in there?
No! I'd never let her see you this way. She was so proud of what you were becoming. I won't let you break her heart again. [Ultimate Kevin growls as fist electrically charges up] I'm not afraid of you anymore, Kevin.
Ben TennysonI'll take it from here, Mr. Hackett.
Figured you were around here somewhere, Tennyson.
Ben TennysonYeah. Gwen had this plan where we'd all talk to you and you'd see the error of your ways.
Sounds like Gwen, all right.
Ben TennysonBut you and I know better. We both know there's only one thing you understand. [turns into Big Chill]
Big Chill! [quickly turns invisible when Ultimate Kevin tries to throw a fireball at him] Good shot, but I suppose that's cold comfort.
It didn't work, Michael. Kevin's just as dangerous as ever.
Ben Tennyson[sarcastically] Huh. And I thought for sure you'd be able just to talk him out of his mindless revenge spree.
[gloating] Always sure you're gonna win! Whadda you gotta say for yourself now?
Ben Tennyson[weakly] Spider... monkey.
