[After battling the Esoterica, Gwen captures one of them with her manna powers]
Just like I thought. He can't teleport through manna.
[holding the Esoterica down] Thanks, Gwen. I got it from here.
EEsoterica
[defensively] You don't scare me. I've got nothing to say.
Dagon's troops are long gone.
Wouldn't hurt to see where they went.
CEConduit Edwards
We must prepare the way. He's coming. We must destroy the seal.
The seal's that big stone disk, right?
It's the only thing keeping Dagon from moving from his dimension into ours.

Forever Knights. Our time has come. This is why we exist. All the other false purposes of the Forever Knights, gathering technology, fighting dragons, nonsense and corruption of our one true mission. As we did upon our founding, so shall we do again. Together we shall slay the Dagon and save the very Earth. This, I swear!
Here's the plan -- we get in there, I turn into something or other, we defeat the Esoterica before they can free Dagon. We're in, we're out.
Simple to the point of not actually being a plan.
I like to let the details work themselves out.
Look, there's a line. I'm not sure where it is exactly, but I'm sure this is way on the wrong side of it.

Power is meaningless if it isn't used. Do it.
Be quiet! [to Ben] Don't you see, Ben? It's the power. You're tempted, like I was tempted to go full Anodite.
And like when I lost control of my powers.
You can't force your answers on everybody. After everything we've been through, is this the way you want it all to end?
[overwhelmed] Everybody, stop talking! Let me think! [steps aside from the group and closes his eyes to make his choice; A montage shows him from his previous adventures; raises the Ascalon sword, sending beams of light all over Earth, turning every Esoterica back into human]
What I "said" I was going to do. Turn every Esoterica on Earth back to human. With all the free will that goes along with that. [the armor magically retracts off him]
Oh, Ben. [runs up to him and kisses him on the lips]
That was totally worth giving up all that power.
Knew you'd do the right thing.
[looks at the Ascalon] Now all I have to do is figure out what to do with this.
[arriving] I suggest you return it to its creator.
Azmuth! [Azmuth sends the Ascalon into the stars] You were right. That's too much power for any… [sees Azmuth extending his hand] What?
The Ultimatrix. Give it to me.
[The Ultimatrix falls off Ben's wrist and disappears]
But, Azmuth, I thought I proved I was worthy.
As usual, you don't understand. You have proved your worth, but this inferior copy of my Omnitrix isn't worthy of you.
[frustrated] Oh, for the love of… Look at your wrist!
[looks at his wrist and got himself a new Omnitrix; amazed] An Omnitrix?!
THE Omnitrix. An improved version I've been working on ever since you were given the prototype six years ago.
I don't know how to thank you.
Keep doing the right thing.
I don't suppose you'd consider giving me the Master Control.
[smiles] Perhaps for your 18th birthday. [teleports away]
