Prologue
| Speaker | Dialogue |
|---|---|
| The episode begins with Ben and Rook going to the Olde Bellwood Days festival. Ben holds a pamphlet. | |
| Ben | The Olde Bellwood Days festival is the first personal appearance I've done in months! (They arrive at the fair) I can't find my name on here anywhere! |
| Rook | Ben, I know you are famous through much of the universe... but it does not seem right for a Plumber to seek personal celebrity. |
| Ben | (Points at Rook) Rook, Plumber. (Then points at himself with both hands) Ben, heroic dude! If people wanna shower me with attention, who am I to stand in their way? (Shrugs while smiling) |
| Natalie | Ben Tennyson! (Waves at Ben and walks up to him and Rook) Natalie Alvarez, deputy director Bellwood Parks & recreation and the event organizer for this little shindig. (Ben and Natalie shake hands) We spoke on the phone. I'm glad you and your... sidekick could join us here today. |
| Rook | (Puzzled) Sidekick? |
| Natalie | I wanted to get Kangaroo Kommando for this year's festival, but the kids were all: (Mimicking the kids) "BEN 10! BEN 10!", don't you know? |
| Ben | (Excited) Oh, man. Kangaroo Kommando would've been sweet! |
| Natalie | Oh, I'm sure you'll be fine. (Pats Ben's shoulder) We're on a tight schedule, so if you'll just follow me. |
| They walk ahead and halt near the middle of the fest, close to the giant wooden bell on display. Natalie presents the bell to Ben and Rook. | |
| Natalie | That, of course, is 'The Bell'. |
| Rook | The bell? |
| Natalie | The world's largest wooden sleigh bell to commemorate the Laplanders who founded Bellwood in 1638. Hand-carved from solid walnut, it weighs over 3000 pounds. |
| Ben peers at the pamphlet. | |
| Rook | Bell...wood! |
| Ben | So, um, Ms. Alvarez, I know it's probably just some huge typo or something, but I can't seem to find my name on here. (Shows pamphlet) |
| Natalie | Hmm? Oh, yes. |
| Ben | I mean, it's kinda weird since... I'm the guest-of-honor and all. |
| A stall named 'Dunk Ben 10' is shown, with Ben sitting on a platform above a big dunk tank. | |
| Ben | (Annoyed) There's gotta be some kind of mistake, lady! I-I'm Ben Tennyson! Superhero?! Saved the world like a billion times! |
| Natalie | And the kids want a chance to dunk ya! All proceeds go to charity. Thanks again. (Walks away) |
| Ben | This is ridiculous. I'm outta here- WHOA! |
| The platform opens and Ben falls into the dunk tank. Ben emerges out of the water and wheezes and coughs. It was Rook who hit the target with a ball. He is holding a few more balls. | |
| Rook | (Cheerfully shrugs) It is for charity. |
| Ben gapes at Rook. | |
| Theme Plays | |
Act 1
| Speaker | Dialogue |
|---|---|
| A few children go running to the park. A group of kids are standing in front of the dunk tank. A boy goes up to the stage and thinks. Ben watches him, nervously. | |
| Kid | Do Big Chill, no, wait, no... Brainstorm! |
| Ben activates the Omnitrix, dials up and transforms into Brainstorm. | |
| Brainstorm | (Vexed) Oh, sure. Now the Omnitrix gives me what I want. |
| The kid is happy. He throws the ball at the target, but misses. Brainstorm places his claws on his lower body. | |
| Teen | Out of my way, dweebs! |
| The teen walks onto the stage. Brainstorm is bemused. The teen, with an intense expression, throws the ball and hits the target. The platform opens and Brainstorm falls into the water. The spectators cheer. Brainstorm turns back into Ben. The teen smiles, then gets serious. | |
| Teen | Stinkfly! |
| Ben gets back on top of the platform and transforms into Stinkfly. The teen hits the target again and Stinkfly falls into the water. | |
| Teen | (Pointing at Ben) Wildmutt! |
| Ben transforms into Wildmutt. The teen hits the target once again and Wildmutt plummets into the tank. | |
| Teen | Spidermonkey! |
| Ben changes into Spidermonkey and gets dunked once more. | |
| Teen | Humungousaur! |
| Ben, soggy and depressed, transforms into Humungousaur. The teen hits the target, Humungousaur is worried and falls. He braces for impact but doesn't completely drown into the water because of his big size. | |
| Teen | (Snarky) I bet you're not even the real Humungousaur. You're probably just some loser in a cheap costume. |
| Humungousaur | Dude, you just saw me transform. |
| Teen | Lame. I'm outta here. (Swishes his hand) |
| Humungousaur reverts back into Ben. He sees Rook getting more tickets. | |
| Ben | Rook, where have you been? (Meekly) I'm getting killed here. |
| Rook | I was purchasing more tickets. (Smiles and shows the tickets) |
| Ben | (Unamused) Seriously not cool, man. |
| Rook | It is for a good cause. |
| Ben | (Gets out of the tank) You already paid for the tickets. The charity still gets the money even if you don't dunk me! |
| Rook | But where is the fun in that? |
| An explosion occurs. The people scatter in panic as Buglizard shows up. Buglizard snarls and jumps onto the wooden bell. | |
| Natalie | (Gasps) THE BELL! SAVE THE BELL! |
| A ball hits Buglizard, which was thrown by Rook. | |
| Rook | I think I got it's attention. |
| Ben | Aw, man. (Activates Omnitrix) I thought we sent this puppy to the pound! (To Rook) You go find the huntsman. He's gotta be around here somewhere, controlling it. (Confidently) I'll teach this old dog some new tricks. (Jumps and runs ahead) |
| Rook | This is no time to be teaching tricks to a- (Pauses and thinks) I am just going to assume, from now on, that everything you ever say is just some weird expression. (Runs off) |
| Ben | (Waving his arms) HEY, UGLY! OVER HERE! |
| Buglizard jumps down and hits the wooden bell with her tail, sending it rolling. | |
| Natalie | THE BELL! Aaah. (Faints) |
| People | Giant bell! Look out! AAAH! |
| The people get out of the bell's way. The teen from earlier runs away from the bell. | |
| Ben | Oh, come on. I have to save that kid? (To Omnitrix) It would be so fitting if you gave me Humungousaur! |
| Ben slams the dial and transforms into Heatblast. | |
| Heatblast | Heatblast? Whoa! |
| Buglizard swipes her tail at Heatblast. He dodges by bending low, and then jumping up. He shoots fire at Buglizard and propels himself forward to fly and catch up to the bell. Buglizard follows him. | |
| The teen trips and falls. | |
| Teen | Whoa! |
| The teen is about to be crushed by the bell. Just then, Heatblast arrives. He gets in between the bell and the teen and tries to stop the bell with his hands. He gets pushed back while stopping the bell, and eventually manages to bring the rolling bell to a halt. The teen runs away. | |
| Heatblast | (Relieved) Ohhh. Aw, man. That was a close- UNH! |
| Crabdozer arrives and smacks Heatblast away. He crashes into a stall. Crabdozer pushes the bell away. Heatblast attacks Crabdozer with flames, but without success. Heatblast looks at himself. | |
| Heatblast | Can't really fight fire with fire in this case. |
| Heatblast panics, as Crabdozer comes closer and tries to eat him. | |
| In another part of the fest, Rook finds Khyber, who is hiding. Rook gets on top of a stall and tries to jump and attack Khyber, but Khyber is alerted and catches Rook. He smashes him into a door and throws him away. Khyber takes out his sword and walks towards Rook. | |
| Khyber | You should've learned by now... No one gets the drop on Khyber the huntsman. |
| Rook | (Brings out his Proto-Tool and powers it up into a tonfa) There is a first time for everything. |
| Khyber | This is between me and Tennyson. |
| Rook | When you let your pet run rampant, threatening innocent civilians, I make it my concern! |
| Khyber | Hmm. YAAARGH! |
| Khyber charges at Rook. | |
| Julius attends to Natalie, who is recovering after having fainted. She sees the bell go rolling again. | |
| Natalie | YAAA! THE BELL! SAVE THE BELL! |
| Heatblast tries to wrestle Crabdozer, holding her by the horn and jaw. But Crabdozer manages to keep pushing Heatblast back. | |
| Heatblast | (Grunts) Kinda busy right now! |
| Heatblast changes back into Ben. He jumps back and transforms into Armodrillo. He manages to hold and stop Crabdozer. | |
| Armodrillo | Now to really shake things up. |
| Armodrillo uses his piston-arms and hits Crabdozer. The shockwave causes both of them to go hurtling backwards. Armodrillo slows himself down. Crabdozer recovers, gets back on her feet and transforms into Slamworm. | |
| Armodrillo | Slamworm?! |
| Slamworm tries to attack Armodrillo, but he somersaults and avoids her. Slamworm digs into the ground. Armodrillo turns on the Omnitrix's comm link. Rook flips and avoids a swipe from Khyber. | |
| Armodrillo | Rook, you've gotta find Khyber. And make him stop whistling commands at the dog! |
| Khyber sees a small explosion behind him. He walks closer to Rook. | |
| Khyber | Your partner's having a little problem, is he? |
| Khyber attacks with his sword, Rook blocks them with his Proto-Tool. Rook gets pushes back into a fence. Rook communicates to Armodrillo. | |
| Rook | Khyber is not whistling. |
| Armodrillo | He has to be! His creature is changing as fast as I- |
| Natalie | SAVE THE BELL! (Desperately pointing at the bell) |
| Armodrillo | Lady, if it's okay with you, how about I save the people from the bell. |
| Armodrillo uses his drill-hands and drills the ground, causing the ground to rupture and crack. The part of the ground just ahead of the bell is uprooted, causing to bell to slow down, then go rolling the other way. Then, Slamworm emerges out of the ground. Armodrillo looks on, anxiously. | |
Act 2
| Speaker | Dialogue |
|---|---|
| Slamworm descends and hits Armodrillo with her mouth. | |
| Armodrillo | Whoa! |
| They go inside the ground and emerge in a short while. Armodrillo desperately tries to keep Slamworm from swallowing him. Slamworm squirms around. | |
| Armodrillo | Whoa! Unh! Hey, no snackin' on the superhero! |
| He uses his drill-hand and drills into Slamworm's mouth. Slamworm feels pain, moves around and throws Armodrillo away. Armodrillo crashes into the Dunk Ben 10 stage. He gets back up, only for Slamworm to fall over him. He gets away. Slamworm recovers and slithers closer to Armodrillo, while wreaking havoc in the park. | |
| Armodrillo | This thing can instantly match me, alien for alien now. But what about an alien you've never seen before? |
| Armodrillo slams the Omnitrix on his chest. He transforms into Big Chill, flies up and produces an icy trail. He flies around and approaches Slamworm. Accordingly, Slamworm transforms into a new predator, Hypnotick. Big Chill halts. Hypnotick floats in front of Big Chill and hypnotizes him, with what appear to be red circles. | |
| Big Chill | (Surprised) HUH?! Uhh, ohhh... (Shakes his head and covers his eyes with his smaller wings) Never thought I'd see one of you guys again. |
| The screen transitions to 5 years ago. | |
| Max drives the Rustbucket II to Mount Rushmore, with Ben and Gwen. | |
| 11-year-old Ben | Whoa, the holographic presidents' heads look totally real. (Looking out the window) |
| Gwen | Yeah. You can hardly tell that some doofus wrecked the real ones. |
| Ben | (Sadly) It wasn't my fault. (Scratches his head) The Forever King stole the Sub-Energy and- |
| Gwen | And you turned into Upchuck and belched away half a mountain. Not to mention a national monument. (Sarcastically) Good job, hero. |
| Max presses a button on his radio, revealing a secret keypad. He inputs the code, the first three numbers being 5,9,0. | |
| Ben | Is that what happened? I thought you looked at it! |
| Max | That's enough, you two. |
| A tunnel is revealed. It opens, they drive into it, the tunnel closes. | |
| Max | Mount Rushmore is a working Plumber base now. So I want you both to be on your best behavior. |
| They drive onto a platform. The platform rises up. They arrive on a level with other vehicles parked. The trio get out of the RV. | |
| Gwen | You still haven't told us what we're doing here, Grandpa. (Excited) What's the big surprise? |
| Max | If I told you, it wouldn't be a surprise. |
| Ben and Gwen look at each other. They walk ahead to a door. Max flashes his Plumber Badge at a scanner. The door opens. Inside, they see several Plumbers at work. | |
| Ben | Whhooa! So, you're back in the Plumbing business, huh, Grandpa? |
| Max | Nooo way. I'm strictly retired. |
| One Plumber, carrying a pile of sheets, runs up to Max. | |
| Plumber | M-M-Magister Tennyson, sir! (Drops the papers and salutes Max) It's an honor. |
| Max | (Awkwardly) Uh... As you were, Plumber. (Salutes back) |
| Plumber | YES, SIR! THANK YOU, SIR! |
| The Plumber smiles, salutes again, picks up the sheets and walks away. | |
| Ben | Magister? What's that? |
| Max | Uh, this way. |
| Max clicks on a button. A nearby compartment is opened, which had several headsets. Max gives Ben and Gwen a headset each, to wear on their eyes. Max wears one himself. Then, a door opens and they walk in. Inside, an injured alien, the same species as Hypnotick, is being kept in a cold tube. | |
| Max | There it is, kids. A real, live Psycholeopterran. The Plumbers confiscated this one from some interstellar smugglers. It's being kept here until it can be moved off-world, to a wild life preserve. |
| Ben walks closer to the tube. The Psycholeopterran flaps his wings, releases a hypnotic mist and tries to hypnotize Ben. | |
| Ben | (Cheerfully) Gross! |
| Max | Take a good look. They're almost extinct. This might be your last chance to see one. |
| Gwen | I don't get it. Why would anybody smuggle some big, ugly bug? And what do we need these glasses for? (Points at them) |
| Ben | To hide your ugly face? |
| Gwen blows raspberries at Ben. Ben does the same, removing his headset and showing his eyes focusing in the middle. | |
| Max | Psycholeopterrans hunt by hypnotizing their prey. (Ben turns around. Max points at the alien) Those patterns on their wings directly stimulate the reward centers of the brain. |
| Ben is slowly hypnotized. | |
| Gwen | Reward centers? So, whatever you want most? That's what you see? |
| Max | Smart girl. |
| Ben | Sooo cool. |
| Ben walks even closer to the tube. The Psycholeopterran tries to attack him but hits the tube's wall. | |
| Max | Ben! |
| Ben | (Startled) AAAH! |
| Max | That's why people smuggle them. (Catches Ben and puts his headset back on his eyes) Staring at them is addictive. |
| The alien goes back on its perch. | |
| Gwen | If they don't bite your face off. |
| Ben | That... was... AWESOME! (Points at himself) I was the most famous superhero in the universe! There were people cheering wherever I went! |
| Gwen | That's what you want most? Huh, lame. |
| Ben | And you had to clean my room. (Points at Gwen) |
| Gwen | Pfft. Keep dreaming. |
| Max | Strange that it would go after you, Ben. Psycholeopterrans usually hunt creatures than can phase through solid matter. |
| Ben | You meeean Ectonurites, like Ghostfreak? |
| Max | Close. They're called Necrofrigggians, and they- |
| The red alert alarm goes off. | |
| Alarm | Red alert! Security breach at main entry. Red alert! Security breach, main entry! |
| Max | You kids stay here while I check this out. (Runs off) |
| Ben | No way. Red alert means HERO TIME! |
| Ben strikes a pose, then runs out of the room. Outside, the Plumbers arm themselves with blasters and start shooting. Ben and Gwen arrive. | |
| Ben | AWESOME! (To Gwen) Who do you think it is? Giant robot? Monster tentacle-thing? |
| Gwen | Big trouble if Grandpa Max catches us. |
| The Plumbers continue blasting. The intruder walks out of the smoke. It is Malware, walking towards them, unaffected by the blasts. Ben and Gwen are shocked. | |
| Ben | Malware?! What's he doing here? |
| Malware leaps and swipes the Plumbers' weapons in a flash, leaving them surprised. | |
| Plumbers | Wha-? Huh? |
| Malware | Mine! (Laughs psychotically) |
| Malware absorbs the blasters into himself and shoots at the Plumbers. They desperately avoid it. Other Plumbers arrive as back-up. Ben is about to join the fight but Gwen stops him. | |
| Gwen | Don't! Grandpa Max said- |
| Ben | Let Malware destroy the whole base and everyone in it? I don't think so. IT'S HERO TIME! |
| Ben activates the Omnitrix, slams the dial and transforms into XLR8. He speeds on, past Max. | |
| XLR8 | Coming through! |
| Max | Ben! No! |
| The Plumbers shooting at Malware get backed up against a wall. They run out of ammo. Gwen chants a spell. | |
| Gwen | Vorcess Nebulae! |
| Gwen raises her arms in front and shields the Plumbers from Malware's blast. Although the blast destroys the shield, XLR8 quickly grabs and saves the Plumbers. | |
| Malware | Ben Tennyson, the bane of my very existence. I should have known you'd be here! |
| XLR8 gets the Plumbers to safety. | |
| XLR8 | What can I say? I get around. |
| XLR8 zooms ahead. Malware blasts at him multiple times. XLR8 effortlessly dodges. Max observes the battle. Then, he spots a Tachyon Cannon, goes closer to it and lifts it. | |
| Max | THAT'S IT, BEN. KEEP HIM BUSY! |
| XLR8 | (Continues dodging) Is that the best you can do? Wow, dude, you really are defective. |
| XLR8 continues running. But then, Malware hits him on his leg and XLR8 times out and reverts back to Ben. Ben rubs his head. Malware walks up to him. | |
| Ben | (Gasps) |
| Malware | I am superior! |
| Malware aims his blaster at Ben. Max is alerted and fires the Tachyon Cannon at Malware, seemingly obliterating him into small pieces that scatter across the room. | |
| Malware | AAAH! |
| One piece lands on Ben's face. Max puts the cannon back, while Gwen runs up to Ben. | |
| Max | Ben, are you okay? |
| Ben | (Gets up and wipes his face) Okay? I am AWESOME! Whoo-hoo! (Ben and Gwen high-five) Another victory for Team Tennyson! |
| Max | A Tachyon Cannon is a weapon of last resort. It keys into the target's bio-signature, then disrupts every individual cell with matching DNA. It took Malware apart on a sub-cellular level. |
| Malware | (Chuckles, his voice echoing) You'd like to think that, wouldn't you? |
| The pieces of Malware start to reform. They absorb the Tachyon Cannon in the process. | |
| Malware | Too slow, old man. It's mine now! What a shame your weapon couldn't properly disrupt my mutated genetic code. (Regenerates into a much more monstrous form) I wonder what effect it will have on human DNA. Let's find out... shall we? (Points cannon at them and cackles) |
| Max covers his grandchildren. | |
Act 3
| Speaker | Dialogue |
|---|---|
| Malware points the cannon at the Tennysons and cackles. | |
| Max | Don't do this, Malware. Human DNA has less than one percent variation. You could wipe out every human within a hundred miles. Maybe more! |
| Malware | A bonus. |
| Ben turns around and activates the Omnitrix. Just as Malware is about to fire, Ben slams the dial and transforms into Feedback. Malware fires. Feedback jumps, gets ahead of Max and Gwen, and absorbs the blast. | |
| Feedback | Now, how'd you like a little Feedback? |
| Feedback fires electric energy back at Malware. Malware liquefies his body to create a hole for the energy to pass through. Malware roars and charges Feedback. They tussle. Malware continues to fire energy while Feedback continues to absorb it. They struggle. | |
| Meanwhile, inside the Psycholeopterran's room, Khyber, wearing a helmet, walks up to the alien and uses a device to switch off the tube containing it. | |
| Feedback and Malware appear to be a match for each other. | |
| Malware | You INSOLENT BRAT! |
| Feedback | You... also something bad! (Feedback senses an energy plug point behind him) But what's this? Tennyson, once again, gets the upper hand. He goes in for the winning move! |
| Feedback absorbs the energy from the plug point with his antennae. His eye glows, indicating that he is charged up. He fires the energy at Malware, sending him flying across the room. Malware hits the wall. | |
| Malware | (Laughs) I'd like nothing better than to drain you to an empty shell... but I've gotten what I came for. You've already lost, Ben Tennyson, and you don't even know it! |
| Malware laughs and fires a blast above him, causing debris to fall over him. Feedback covers himself. He changes back into Ben. | |
| Ben | Aww. I was all ready to blast him into atoms. |
| Gwen | He said he got what he came for. (To Max) That big alien gun? |
| Max | Eh, there are easier ways to get a Tachyon Cannon. (Thinks) It had to be something he could only get here. |
| Max is struck by a realization. He runs, Ben and Gwen follow him. They arrive in the room with the Psycholeopterran. | |
| Gwen | (Relieved) Whew. It's still here. |
| Max | But Malware, or someone who works for him, was here too. Look. (Points at the creature) |
| The alien snarls and relaxes again. | |
| Ben | Why would someone sneak in to grab the galaxy's rarest creature... but then just leave it? |
| Gwen | He didn't. He said he had what he came for. |
| Max | But what? |
| The Psycholeopterran relaxes. | |
| Back in the present. | |
| Big Chill continues to resist Hypnotick. | |
| Big Chill | Khyber and his buddies have been collecting alien predator DNA for the last five years. (Peeks and sees Hypnotick come closer) Whoa! |
| The chase commences. Big Chill flies out of the park at high speed, while Hypnotick follows him. | |
| Big Chill | But if this is about taking me out, how come Khyber isn't here for his big moment? (Looks back at Hypnotick) He wouldn't let his dog hog all the glory. |
| They fly between tall buildings. Big Chill gains altitude but Hypnotick still follows him. Big Chill looks back at her, speeds up and phases through Billions Tower. He comes out the other end and looks back triumphantly. | |
| Big Chill | Splat like a bug on a windshield! |
| To Big Chill's shock, Hypnotick phases through the tower as well. Hypnotick proceeds to hypnotize Big Chill. | |
| Big Chill | Duh! Of course it can go intangible too. It's my... natural... predator. |
| Big Chill is entranced. Inside his conscience, Ben is being cheered by a crowd while he stands on a stage dedicated to him. | |
| Crowd | BEN 10! BEN 10! BEN 10! BEN 10! WE LOVE YOU, BEN 10! |
| Ben | (Overjoyed, swiping his arm) Yeah-ha! Thank you! I love you all, too! But not as much as you love me! |
| In reality, Hypnotick opens her mouth and is about to eat Big Chill. | |
| Big Chill | No. This isn't what it's about. I'm... a hero! |
| In his conscience, Ben is dejected. Then, he becomes serious. The crowd stops cheering to listen to him. | |
| Ben | Being a hero isn't about fame. It's about putting other people before yourself, or what you want. It's about doing the right thing, just because it's the right thing to do. It's about making a difference. |
| Ben (Big Chill) succeeds in trying to resist Hypnotick's mind control. Big Chill moves his arm and hits the Omnitrix to revert back into Ben. | |
| Ben | WHOA! Unh! |
| Ben falls onto the roof of a building below him. He gets up. Hypnotick flies closer to him. Ben shields himself, but Hypnotick does nothing but hover in front of Ben. Ben is puzzled. | |
| Ben | Dude, are you ever gonna fight or just keep wasting my time? (Realizes) Or maybe you are just wasting my time. |
| Back at the park, Rook and Khyber continue to fight. Khyber hits Rook. Then, Rook dodges a couple of blows and blocks an attack. Khyber kicks Rook back. Rook falls but gets up in a flash. Rook kicks Khyber, then performs a roundhouse kick, pushing Khyber back. Ben contacts Rook via their comm link. | |
| Ben | Rook, I think this is all just a diversion to keep us busy. He's after something else here. |
| Khyber | (Chuckles) Smart boy. And with that, we're done. Oh, you've got bigger fish to fry, my friend. You might start at your quaint, little Plumber craft. |
| Rook | Why would you tell me what you are after? |
| Khyber | I have my reasons. |
| Rook powers down his Proto-Tool and runs. Khyber whistles. Far away, Hypnotick hears the whistle and flies back to the park. Ben is confused. | |
| Rook | (Through comm link) BEN, IT IS MY TRUK! |
| Determined, Ben runs ahead and jumps off the building. He transforms into Heatblast, again, and speeds on. Heatblast flies even faster than Hypnotick and surpasses her. He lands in front of the Proto-TRUK and changes back into Ben. He runs to the back of the TRUK and looks inside. | |
| Ben | No! |
| Ben is horrified to see Malware, rummaging the Proto-TRUK's computers. Malware spots Ben and jumps out of the TRUK. Ben takes a few steps back. | |
| Ben | You can't be here. It's not possible! |
| Malware | Come, now, Ben Tennyson. You didn't think a child could get rid of me that easily, did you? |
| Malware walks closer to Ben. Ben steps back. | |
| Ben | (Terrified) Stay away from me. I'm warning you! |
| Malware | You're warning me? (Laughs) No, I'm warning you. Do not try to follow me. You know what I'm capable of. |
| Rook | BEN! |
| Rook comes running towards them. Malware runs off. Ben stoops for a while. | |
| Ben | Check inside. He took something. (Intensely) I'm going to stop Malware. Once and for all! |
| Malware runs on a street. A car veers and crashes in front of him. Malware runs up a sloping road and halts at a road junction. Behind him, Ben transforms into Humungousaur once again. | |
| Malware | I told you to stay put! |
| Humungousaur | I was never very good at following orders. |
| Malware blasts at Humungousaur. He jumps to dodge the blast. Humungousaur smashes the road after Malware avoids him. Malware tries to attack but Humungousaur pushes him away with his tail. Malware gets up and sees school bus with the driver and a few children inside driving towards them. Humungousaur tries to punch Malware, he dodges and runs up to the nearby gas station. Humungousaur also sees the bus. Malware pushes a gas truck down the road, towards the bus. | |
| Malware | Your choice, hero. Me or the little ones down there. |
| Humungousaur | (Angrily) Coward! |
| The driver stops the bus. The gas station rolls closer to them. Humungousaur jumps down the road, picks up a car and throws it at the truck to make it turn away from the bus. The bus is saved. Humungousaur comes closer to the bus. | |
| Humungousaur | You kids okay? |
| The kids cheer. Humungousaur looks up the road and sees that Malware is gone. | |
| Ben arrives back at the Proto-TRUK. | |
| Ben | What did he take? |
| Rook | (Working on the computers) Difficult to determine. He did not take any weapons or equipment. But a section of the main memory core was destroyed, along with some of the auxiliary power systems. |
| Ben | You're lucky he didn't turn your whole TRUK into dust. |
| Rook | Who is this Malware? I would check his Plumber file, but- |
| Ben | Short answer, he's a Galvanic Mechamorph and a total psychopath. Long answer?- |
| Teen | Hey, um, I was being kind of a jerk to you before, but... you saved my life... anyways. I, um, I-I just wanna say, y'know, thanks... and stuff. |
| Ben | (Happily) Don't mention it. It's what I do. |
| Humungousaur places the giant wooden bell back into its place and turns back into Ben. | |
| Natalie | Mr. Tennyson, I can't thank you enough for what you've done here today. I guess I made the right choice after all. |
| Ben | Me too. Now, if you'll excuse me, I... have to give the people what they want. |
| Ben gets back on the platform of the Dunk Ben 10 stall. | |
| Ben | Alright, folks, who wants to try and dunk Four Arms, step right up! |
| Ben awkwardly sees as other than Rook, nobody comes ahead. Rook cheerfully reveals a bucket of balls and prepares to dunk Ben. | |
| Ben | Anybody? Anyone at all? |
| The camera pans up to the 'Ben 10' sign, as Ben gets dunked. | |
| Credits play. | |
