Secrets (Ben 10)

Ben 10: Season: 1 Episode: 13

Newscaster: We’re live on the scene of a high-speed police pursuit of an armored car stolen earlier today from the federal reserve in Denver. It is believed the thieves also Have a hostage. Wait. What’s this? Yes. It looks like we have another alien sighting. We don’t know where these strange creatures come from, but they seem to be here to help.

Vilgax: The Omnitrix wasted on pointless heroics.

Robot: Shall I dispatch more drones to retrieve it?

Vilgax: No. I will see to this task myself.

Ben: AAHHH!!!!

Max: Another nightmare, Ben?

Ben: It was that weird alien from my vision, only bigger, uglier, and scarier.

Gwen: Sure, you weren’t just looking in a mirror?

Max: It was just a bad dream, son. We can talk about it in the morning.

Ben: It seemed so real. He looked right at me and said, "I’m coming for you now."

Max: Change of plan. We’re hitting the road right now.

Gwen: Grandpa, it’s 3:00 in the morning.

Max: Best way to beat the traffic.

Ben: Uh, grandpa, what’s with the lead foot?

Max: I want to make Mount Rushmore by nightfall.

Ben: I’m so bored. Let me play a game.

Gwen: I would, but I think this will be a good lesson for you to learn how to entertain yourself.

Vilgax: The Omnitrix has been activated. Pinpoint its location. I have you now.

Gwen: Hey! What gives?

Ben: Sorry. You are a loser and always will be.

Gwen: Aah! Ben! Get out of my computer.

Ben (Upgrade): What? I’m just entertaining myself.

Gwen: This is my private property, and you’re getting your cooties all over it.

Ben: Ooh! What’s this? A diary! "Dear diary, my cousin Ben is such a-

Gwen: Doofus, knock it off!

Max: Ben, now is not the time to go alien. Do you understand?

Ben (Upgrade): I was just fooling around.

Max: We can’t afford to attract attention right now.

Ben (Upgrade): What kind of attention could I attract in here? (back to human)

Max: Never mind.

Robot: We have lost the Omnitrix signal.

Vilgax: No matter. I’ve narrowed down its location. I know just how to draw this Earthling out.

Ben: What’s going on over there?

Max: I’m sure the local authorities have the situation well in hand.

Ben: Looks like it’s hero time!

Max: Ben, I don’t think that’s the best ide-

Ben: Time to turn up the Heatblast on these guys.

Man: What’s going on?

Ben (Heatblast): Hey. Why don’t you pick on someone with real fire power? Oh, man. I didn’t mean all at once. Why do I get the feeling you were expecting me? Unh! Huh? You! You’re the alien from my visions.

Vilgax: At last we meet, the being that has caused me so much trouble.

Ben (Heatblast): Who are you?

Vilgax: I am Vilgax, and I have come for the Omnitrix.

Ben (Heatblast): And, uh, I’m guessing you’re not with the good guys. Aah! Unh! Ok. This guy’s really tough. I’ve got to slow him down.

Max: No! It can’t be.

Ben (Heatblast): Not so tough when you can’t move, are you?

Gwen: Ben, grandpa says to get in now!

Ben (Heatblast): What are you talking about? I’m just about to kick alien butt! (back to human)

Max: Benjamin, get in! Believe when I say, you do not want to pick a fight with Vilgax.

Ben: Uh, how do you know his name Is Vilgax?

Gwen: Grandpa, what aren’t you telling us? 2 robot goons closing in fast!

Max: Hold on!

Gwen: We can’t keep this up forever!

Max: Things are gonna get a whole lot worse if we don’t get to Mount Rushmore.

Gwen: Why? What’s at Mount Rushmore?

Max: Gwen, this is not the time to explain. You’re gonna have to trust me.

Ben: Well I’m not going down without a fight. (transform into Stinkfly) Yes!

Max: Ben, wait!

Ben (Stinkfly): Float like a butterfly but sting like a Stinkfly! Unh!

Vilgax: Give me the Omnitrix.

Ben (Stinkfly): Who is this guy?

Gwen: Where are we going? We have to help Ben!

Max: We will, but first, we’ll need to get some special help.

Gwen: Let me guess, at Mount Rushmore? Grandpa, you’re really freaking me out.

Vilgax: I grow tired of this.

Ben: Hey! How’d you do that?

Vilgax: A child? The Omnitrix is in the hands of A mere child?! It appears the Omnitrix has already merged with your own DNA.

Ben: Unh! I, uh, don’t suppose that means you’re gonna let me go, does it?

Vilgax: Hardly.

Gwen: I don’t think tourists are allowed on this road.

Max: We’re not tourists. We’re tenants.

Gwen: That’s it! I am not taking another step until you tell me what’s going on! Why aren’t we helping Ben, what is this place, and now do you know about that alien guy who’s after Ben?

Max: Well, it’s kind of complicated, but let’s just say I wasn’t exactly your normal plumber before I retired.

Vilgax: A child. I should have suspected as much. The Omnitrix being used as play toy.

Ben: Hey! I’ve saved a lot of people by going hero.

Vilgax: You hold the key to a power struggle so ancient, so vast it is beyond your feeble comprehension. Picture an entire army, each in command of an Omnitrix, and all at my command. I will be invincible. I will rule the universe, and the only thing standing between me and my destiny is you.

Max: This weapon is keyed into Vilgax’s biosignature. Hopefully, it will take him down for good this time.

Gwen: This time?

Max: There’s a small red button under that cabinet. Press it.

Gwen: Hey!

Max: GPS-assisted tracking system. It’s locked on the watch’s signal. You navigate.

Vilgax: Prepare for takeoff. Once we’re in orbit, I will finally have the pleasure of destroying this miserable planet once and for all.

Gwen: There’s the spaceship.

Max: We have to get aboard.

Gwen: Get aboard? How?

Robot: Warning. Hull breach. Power surge.

Max: Claws off my grandson, Vilgax.

Ben: Grandpa?

Vilgax: Tennyson.

Ben: Grandpa, you know this guy?

Max: It’s a long story.

Ben: Unh! Hey! What’s going-unh!

Max: The power surge must have affected the watch.

Ben: Errgh! Unh!

Gwen: Look out!

Ben: (Ghostfreak) Oh, man! (Grey Matter) A little alien know-how, and the coast is toast. (Upgrade) Try picking on someone your own size.

Max: I’ve got to get this ship under control.

Ben: He can fly a spaceship?

Gwen: At this point, nothing surprises me.

Ben & Gwen: Grandpa!

Vilgax: Your weapon won’t help, Tennyson. As you can see, I’m much stronger than in our last encounter.

Ben: Nooo!

Max & Gwen: Ben!

Ben: (Ripjaws) Oh. Sometimes, I hate this watch.

Max: We’ve got to get out of here!

Ben: Ugh… Can’t breathe. Need water.

Vilgax: You are a slippery little fish, child, but no longer.

Ben: (XLR8) I can still give you a run for your money.

Vilgax: You can’t hide from me forever, boy.

Ben: (XLR8) Wasn’t planning on it. Peek-a-boo. Ohh! I’m gonna feel that tomorrow.

Vilgax: For you, there is no tomorrow. You can’t escape me!

Ben: (Diamondhead) Special delivery! Oh, man. Guess I should have seen that coming. Unh! Ohh! (Ghostfreak) Yes! Sometimes, I love this watch.

Max: Better hang on to something. This may get a little bumpy.

Gwen: Aah! Aah!

Ben: (Ghostfreak) Don’t switch on me now. Oh, no!

Max: You all right, Gwen?

Gwen: Oh. At times like this, going back to school doesn’t seem so bad.

Max & Gwen: Ben?!

Ben: (Ghostfreak) Grandpa? Gwen? No!

Vilgax: It’s your choice. You or them. How noble.

Max: Vilgax, no. Don’t go back in there.

Vilgax: Foolish earthling, why would I- the auto-destruct launch sequence has been initiated! Tennyson! You are the thorn in my side.

Ben: Guess it runs in the family.

Computer: Commencing self-destruct launch.

Vilgax: Nooooo! (his spaceship explodes)

Gwen: Not bad for doofus.

Ben: Grandpa, we need to talk.
