|
| Ben, Gwen, and Max arrive at Niagara Falls.
|
| Max
|
Here she is, kids -- Niagara Falls.
|
| Gwen
|
Whoa!
|
| Ben
|
Niagara Falls? What's there to do here?
|
| Gwen
|
Seriously? It's only the biggest waterfall in America!
|
| Ben
|
Yes! They have a waterfall?
|
| Gwen
|
Ohh, no. I know that look. Ben, don't.
|
| Ben
|
What?
|
| Gwen
|
Every time you get around water, you make a fool of yourself.
|
| Ben
|
No I don't.
|
| The flashback starts.
|
| Gwen
|
Ben, no!
|
| Ben
|
Cannonball!
|
| Max
|
Ben, no!
|
| Ben
|
Cannonball!
|
| Fish
|
Ben, no!
|
| Ben
|
Cannonball!
|
| The flashback ends.
|
| Ben
|
Okay, so I like making a splash. What else are you gonna do with water?
|
| Gwen
|
See? That's why I'm worried. If we're gonna survive the summer, maybe you could use a little help.
|
| Ben tries to open a jar of pickles.
|
| Ben
|
Help? What kind of nonsense are you talking?
|
| Gwen
|
You know, just sometimes maybe you need a filter.
|
| Ben
|
(using a wrench to open the jar) A filter?
|
| Gwen
|
Yeah, someone to sift through all your ideas and tell you when one of them is really terrible.
|
| Ben
|
Why would I need that? (Has a bat)
|
| Gwen
|
D-- ah. Trust me.
|
| Ben
|
Who needs a filter when I've got Ben-tuition -- that tiny feeling in my gut that is never, ever wrong?
|
| Gwen
|
Look, your "Ben-tuition" is awesome, but how much more awesome would it be if I was there to pump the brakes every now and then, so you don't accidentally destroy any national monuments?
|
| Ben
|
Hey, that statue was asking for it!
|
| Max
|
You know, Ben, it might not be the worst idea. With your powers and Gwen's, uh, discretion, you two could be unbeatable.
|
| Gwen
|
Well?
|
| Ben
|
Uh... I guess.
|
| Gwen
|
Great! So we agree. You'll run all your ideas by me first. Pickle?
|
| Ben
|
Fine. (eats the pickle)
|
| Later that night.
|
| Ben
|
Time for some unfiltered fun. (activates the Omnitrix Diamondhead, no. Cannonbolt, yes!
|
| Ben transforms into Cannonbolt.
|
| Cannonbolt
|
Oh, boy! Oh, boy! Oh, boy!
|
| Cannonbolt prepares himself.
|
| Cannonbolt
|
Cannonbolt-ball!
|
| Cannonbolt does a cannonball into the water, splashing a nearby fisherman and knocking a rock out of place.
|
| Fisherman
|
Darn it. I just washed that truck.
|
| Cannonbolt reverts back to Ben.
|
| Ben
|
Best cannonball ever!
|
| The Hydromander wakes up.
|
| Hydromander
|
(Growling) Must feed.
|
| The Hydromander eats the fisherman's truck.
|
| Fisherman
|
Darn it. I just bought that truck.
|
| The next morning.
|
| Gwen
|
(gasps) What was that?
|
| They see the Hydromander causing a rampage.
|
| Ben
|
Giant tentacle rampaging through town? Can't say I saw that coming.
|
| Sally
|
Oh, of course I'll marry you, Todd!
|
| Todd
|
Oh, Sally, nothing can ruin this perfect moment.
|
| The Hydromander captures Sally and Todd.
|
| Ben
|
All right. (sees the Omnitrix) Who's on deck today? (sees a new alien) Ooh, new guy!
|
| Gwen
|
Ben! No!
|
| Ben
|
Hey. No looking over my shoulder while I'm alien picking.
|
| Gwen
|
Hello? Filter here! This is no time to learn on the job. Just go with something you know.
|
| Ben
|
I'm know you're trying to help, but my "Ben-tuition" is telling me to try out this new guy.
|
| Gwen
|
But you agreed --
|
| Ben
|
Shh, shh, shh. Trust me on this.
|
| Gwen
|
(growls)
|
| Ben transforms into Overflow.
|
| Overflow
|
Here we go!
|
| Sally
|
This is all your fault!
|
| Todd
|
My fault? I don't know why I thought a ring was a good idea!
|
| Sally
|
How dare you?
|
| Overflow
|
All right, whatcha got, new guy?
|
| Overflow shoots water at the monster, freeing Sally and Todd.
|
| Overflow
|
Okay, sweet. So, you're like the world's most powerful water gun. (looks up) Huh?
|
| The monster knocks Overflow to the wall.
|
| Overflow
|
Huh. Super-tough exoskeleton seems to be able to take a whipping and keep on dripping. I give it five stars.
|
| The monster gets away.
|
| Overflow
|
Hey! Get back here!
|
| Overflow follows it.
|
| Overflow
|
(to Gwen) What the heck is that?
|
| The monster munches on everything.
|
| Overflow
|
And why is he so hungry?
|
| Gwen
|
(looks at her phone) Apparently, there's a legend about a creature called the hydromander. It lives under these falls and hibernates for thousands of years. It only wakes up to do important things, like feeding.
|
| Max
|
Wow. That's some rotten luck, us being here just when he wakes up.
|
| Gwen
|
(looks at Ben) Luck? Or some super-impulsive person with no filter did something to wake it up.
|
| Overflow
|
I don't know what you're talking about.
|
| Gwen grunts.
|
| Overflow
|
Okay, okay! My "Ben-tuition" may have led me to cannonball a hungry tentacle monster out of its sleep. How was I supposed to know?
|
| Gwen
|
What did we talk about yesterday? You run everything by me, remember? Your filter?
|
| Max
|
This is no time for arguing, kids. This thing looks like it's about to eat the whole town.
|
| They see the monster about to eat a boat full of people. Overflow leaves.
|
| Gwen
|
Ben!
|
| Overflow jumps on the boat.
|
| Overflow
|
Next up on the tour -- sushi!
|
| Overflow cuts off the monster's tongue. Overflow tries to attack, but the monster grabs him and drags him underwater.
|
| Overflow
|
(straining) Let go of me! Can't breathe! Gonna... (realizes) Wait a minute. New guy can breathe water? (laughing) Oh, man, are you gonna get it!
|
| Overflow tries to attack, but the monster throws him down.
|
| Overflow
|
Ugh! So, that does that. What about...
|
| Overflow tries to shoot at the monster, but the stream of water that he shot hits him.
|
| Overflow
|
Okay, but what if I...
|
| Overflow traps the monster in a whirlpool.
|
| Overflow
|
Ha! Good luck trying to escape that whirlpool!
|
| The monster grabs him and throws him down. The monster kicks some rocks on Overflow and returns to eat the boat.
|
| Hydromander
|
Feeding complete.
|
| Max lowers down a hook to grab Overflow.
|
| Gwen
|
Ben!
|
| Overflow
|
(coughing) Where'd it go?
|
| Max
|
It's heading upstream.
|
| The hydromander heads upstream.
|
| Max
|
Let's go.
|
| In the Rustbucket.
|
| Ben
|
I can't believe it. I got totally schooled by that frog monster thing. Town ruined, ancient monster reawaken, all because of my stupid "Ben-tuition".
|
| Gwen
|
I'm just glad you're safe now, cuz.
|
| Max
|
Nobody's safe yet. Looks like this thing is headed out to Lake Erie.
|
| Ben
|
You were right. I do need a filter. Help me?
|
| Gwen nods. Ben and Gwen see the Hydromander laying down.
|
| Gwen
|
Look! I think it's hurt.
|
| The Hydromander's skin bubbles up.
|
| Ben
|
Whoa. I don't believe it. It's going down.
|
| The Hydromander sinks beneath the waves.
|
| Gwen
|
It's history! You did it, Ben!
|
| Ben
|
Yeah! Whoo-hoo! Oh, yeah. I'm the best. You can't stop this, cause I bring it! Uh-huh!
|
| Max
|
I wouldn't celebrate yet.
|
| Ben
|
Why not? It's not every day I destroy a hydromander.
|
| Max
|
It's not destroyed, Ben. It's multiplying.
|
| Ben
|
Huh?
|
| A small hydromander appears out of the water.
|
| Gwen
|
This must be the other important thing it does when it wakes up. It replicates.
|
| Ben
|
Oh.
|
| The rest of the small hydromanders appears out of the ocean.
|
| Small Hydromander
|
Feed!
|
| Ben
|
Well? What should I do?
|
| Gwen
|
Use someone you know inside and out like Heatblast.
|
| Ben
|
Okay. Yes. Heatblast.
|
| Ben transforms into Heatblast.
|
| Heatblast
|
Hope you guys like the classics. Cause here's a trusty old stand-by I like to call fireball!
|
| Heatblast throws the fireball at the hydromander and hits it. Two more appear.
|
| Heatblast
|
And here's another one. It's, uh, also called fireball.
|
| Heatblast hits the fireball on another hydromander. Four more appear.
|
| Heatblast
|
Okay, more classics, coming up.
|
| Heatblast throws more fireballs at the hydromanders.
|
| Heatblast
|
There. That takes care of -- (sees more pop up) Aah! (to Gwen) Gwen! There's too many of them, and not enough classics!
|
| The two hydromanders grab Heatblast by the legs.
|
| Heatblast
|
Aah!
|
| Gwen
|
Ben! No!
|
| They drag him underwater.
|
| Hydromander
|
Attack!
|
| The hydromanders charges after Heatblast, but he kicks them again.
|
| Gwen
|
Fire in water -- Oh, I should have thought of that!
|
| The hydromanders drags him back into the water. Heatblast gets them off of him before reverting back to Ben.
|
| Ben
|
Quick! Pull me in! Use the hook!
|
| Max
|
(grunting) We can't get to it! They're all over us!
|
| Gwen
|
Ben, use your "Ben-tuition"!
|
| Ben
|
But that's what got me in trouble!
|
| Ben kicks the hydromander away.
|
| Gwen
|
Ha! No, it isn't. I got you in trouble by making you doubt yourself. Your Ben-tuition is perfectly... Ben-tuitive! Oh, what am I saying?
|
| The hydromanders drags him back in the water and throws him down. They were going to crush Ben with a rock, but Ben moves out of the way. Ben transforms into Overflow.
|
| Overflow
|
Somebody order an underwater beatdown?
|
| The hydromanders look confused.
|
| Overflow
|
I hate when they don't own up to it. Let's do this!
|
| Overflow charges at them and cut off the tongues of the hydromanders. Overflow knocks them back.
|
| Overflow
|
Yeah!
|
| Max pulls the small hydromander on land, drying it out.
|
| Gwen
|
(gasps) They get weaker on land. That means...
|
| Overflow
|
Stay still, you little --
|
| Gwen
|
Ben! Get them on land!
|
| Overflow
|
What?
|
| Gwen
|
Just do what you always do in water!
|
| Overflow
|
(gasps) Really? Oh, boy! Oh, boy! Oh, boy!
|
| Overflow prepares himself.
|
| Overflow
|
Cannonball!
|
| Overflow does a huge cannonball into the water, knocking out the Hydromanders from water onto land.
|
| Todd
|
Nothing can ruin this beautiful moment.
|
| A dried-up hydromander drops down on them.
|
| Hydromander
|
(straining) Lame. Lame!
|
| Overflow
|
Aww. They're kind of cute when they're out of water.
|
| The Hydromanders are locked up.
|
| Max
|
Phew. There.
|
| Gwen
|
Ben, I owe you an apology. If I hadn't gotten in the way, your Ben-tuition would've done just fine.
|
| Ben
|
It's okay. Believe it or not, sometimes your filter is kind of right.
|
| Gwen
|
Thanks. We just have different ways of doing things. My way is to play it safe, and yours is a fast-and-loose-by-the-seat-of-your-pants approach.
|
| Ben transforms into Cannonbolt.
|
| Cannonbolt
|
Cannonball!
|
| Cannonbolt does another cannonball into the water, soaking Gwen and Max.
|
| Gwen
|
Did he really just do that again?
