The End of an Era

Ben 10: Omniverse: Season 8 - Episode 9Tower Voice: Intruder alert on Level 42.

Future Animo: Do that Cyber voodoo that you do so well!

Humungoopsaur: Get away from that door, Animo!

Future Animo: That's Dr. Animo! My pets should keep you two busy. [ Laughs evilly ]

[Both growl and croak ]

Future Kai Green: What are those things? Your archenemies are seriously disgusting.

Humungoopsaur: Hey, it's not like I pick them!

[ Beeping ] [ Grunting ]

Future Kai Green: Ugh! Here. Let me.

Humungoopsaur: Two more punches and I would have had it open.

Future Kai Green: Well, now you can punch him instead!

Future Animo: You're too late, Tennysons! Thanks to your Chronoporter, I shall travel back in time to retrieve the Arc, supplying myself with enough DNA to create an army of Mutant creatures! Say goodbye to your past and hello to Oblivion! [ Laughs evilly ]

[ Biomnitrix powers down ]

Chrono Spanner: Did you guys lose somebody?

Ben 10,000: Spanner? What are you -- Where

Future Kai Green: We haven't seen you in decades!

Chrono Spanner: Yeah. I've been really busy.

Ben 10,000: Okay. Uh, Well, thanks for the assist.

Future Kai Green: We're about to leave for Plumber Headquarters. We'll drop Animo off on the way.

Chrono Spanner: Oh, yeah, Grandpa Max is retiring today.

Future Kai Green: You know about that?

Chrono Spanner: Uh, Y-yeah. It's all over the Extranet.

Ben 10,000: And we're gonna be late if our son can't get his act together. Ken! Hurry up, buddy! What is with that kid?

Future Kai Green: Don't look at me. That's all your side of the family.

Ken Tennyson: I'm coming! I'm coming! I was looking for this.

Future Kai Green: The Omnitrix? Unh-unh. You're still grounded, kiddo.

Ken Tennyson: It's an official function, so one of us should wear it, for old times' sake.

Future Kai Green: For old times' sake? Wow. That is a real stretch, even for you.

Ken Tennyson: Aw, come on! What if there's an alien attack or something?

Ben 10,000: If there's an alien attack -- Hey, where'd Spanner go?

Future Kai Green: The man said he was busy. Now grab the mad doctor and let's get going.

Ben 10,000: Yes, dear. Ben to Plumber Base. Four the teleport.

Future Animo: I'm not mad.

Future Blukic: You are now arriving at Plumber Base. Barf Bags are on your right. Any lingering dizziness is perfectly normal.

[ Indistinct Conversations ]

Future Kai Green: Wow. There is some serious Political Power in this room.

Ken Tennyson: Tell me about it. Isn't that the guy from the HappySnax commercial?

Future Rook Blonko: Ben, you made it -- and on time.

Ben 10,000: You don't have to sound so surprised. Are you ready to fill Grandpa Max's shoes?

Future Rook Blonko: I do not believe an exchange of footwear will be required.

Ben 10,000: No, Rook. That's a figure of -- Oh, you got me again.

Future Rook Blonko: That comedic ruse never gets old. But it will be a challenge to perform the duties of Magistratus as well as your grandfather has.

Future Max Tennyson: Nonsense, Rook. You're gonna do just fine. Truth is you've been top man around here for years.

Future Rook Blonko: That is kind of you to say, Magis --

Future Max Tennyson: Ah. Call me Max. Might as well get used to it.

Ben 10,000: I know the invitation said no gifts, but I just couldn't show up empty-handed.

Future Animo: You're finally retiring, Maxwell? This place won't be the same without you.

Future Max Tennyson: We've kept your room just like you left it.

Future Kevin Levin: Tennyson.

Ben 10,000: Levin. Ha, so you're taking over Rook's old job, huh?

Future Kevin Levin: Hey, somebody's got to keep the Rooters in line.

Future Kai Green: And, Gwen, I hear you finally completed your second doctorate.

Future Gwen Tennyson: I know. I know. But seriously, I would have finished a year ago if I hadn't been named High Magus

[ Cheers and Applause ]

Future Kevin Levin: You guys are just in time. The President of Earth is arriving.

Ben 10,000: This I got to see.

Future Jimmy Jones: J. Jonah Jones here, bringing you exclusive Jones Network coverage of the President's speech.

Future Harangue: Uh, can we do that again, Mr. Jones? I, uh, forgot to put in a sim.

Future Jimmy Jones: Harangue! Remind me why I don't fire you.

[ Elevator Clacking ]

[ Elevator Beeps ]

Future Argit: Greetings, fellow Earth-dwellers!

Future Subdora: Okay. I'm ready inside. I'm outside the vault.

Future Maltruant: Well done, Subdora. You will wait for precisely 37.362 seconds and then proceed.

Future Exo-Skull: Hey, I know you're the evil mastermind and all, but, uh, this place is Plumber Central. What are we waiting around for?

Future Maltruant: A random event, a twist of fate, an occurrence no one could possibly foresee -- Unless, of course, you're a time traveler who's been there before.

Ben 10,000: Greetings, Mr. President.

Future Argit: "Greetings"? Come on, you guys. Granted, I am the most powerful man on the planet, but I'm still the same old Argit.

Future Kevin Levin: That's what we're afraid of.

Ken Tennyson: Hey, hey, hey! Uncle Argit!

Future Argit: Kenny! Look at you -- practically a Juvenile Delinquent! Hey, uh, where's the, um, uh...

Ken Tennyson: Yeah, my parents won't let me wear it.

Future Argit: I'll take care of it. I mean, hello! President of Earth!

[ Alarm Blaring ]

[ All gasp ]

Future Rook Blonko: It appears a massive Solar Flare has released a stream of high-energy particles.

[ Murmuring Continues ]

Future Rook Blonko: There is no cause for alarm. This station is fully shielded from Ionizing Radiation. At the very worst, we might experience...

[ All Screaming ]

Future Argit: Hey, watch the jacket!

Future Rook Blonko: ...A complete shutdown of all electronic systems. Everyone, please -- do not panic!

[ All shouting ]

Future Kevin Levin: Hey, settle down or I'll start knocking heads together!

Future Gwen Tennyson: Kevin!

Ben 10,000: Your people skills have improved.

Future Jimmy Jones: In the absence of light or gravity, the wealthy and powerful of Earth float like, uh...

Future Will Harangue: Very important balloons?

Future Jimmy Jones: [ Clears Throat ] You know, you can be replaced by a tripod and remote control.

Future Max Tennyson: Everyone, please. You are in no danger. The flare just knocked out the lights and the artificial gravity. We'll have everything back on in a moment.

Future Rook Blonko: You did not mention that life support is also shut down.

Future Kevin Levin: I'm thinking we should probably keep the "running out of Oxygen" part to ourselves.

Future Subdora: 37 seconds. He may be crazy and evil, but the boss has a great sense of timing. There you are. Come to Mama, little Anihilaarg!

Future Max Tennyson: I'll go down to the power core and reset the breakers. That should bring gravity and life support back online.

Ben 10,000: I'll go with you.

Future Max Tennyson: No, Ben. I need all of you to keep everyone calm and start moving them down to the hangar deck. Be ready to launch the emergency pods just in case.

Future Subdora: Hey, I got Anihilaarg, but this Star Core -- she's a fake!

Future Maltruant: A fake?! Impossible! I know I sensed the Dwarf Star Core on this station. One moment.

[ Indistinct Conversations ]

Future Gwen Tennyson: This way! This way, please! [ Gasps ] It's Maltruant. He's on top of the station, looking for something.

Future Kai Green: Like what?

Future Gwen Tennyson: I don't know. But I just felt his mind searching.

Ben 10,000: Whatever he's looking for, he's gonna find a serious beatdown.

Future Gwen Tennyson: You guys head for the upper airlock. I'll tell Kevin where we're going and meet you there.

Future Maltruant: Ah! I have located the Star Core. You will proceed to the Hangar level and wait for instructions.

Future Subdora: [ Sighs ] Whatever you say, bossman. It's Max Tennyson. He's coming right this way

Future Exo-Skull: Max Tennyson? Listen, sweetie, I'll get the Star Core. You just stay put. I don't want you taking any chances with that guy.

Future Subdora: [ Gasps ] Mm. Don't you worry about me, my darling. I just found an old friend to help me out.

Future Animo: Magistratus! What say we make your retirement permanent?!

Future Max Tennyson: [ Grunts ]

Future Subdora: That should keep him busy.

Future Animo: Note to self -- Reinforce neck bolts

Future Max Tennyson: I still got it. Phew!

Ken Tennyson: Ladies and Gentlemen and others, please float in a calm and orderly fashion through the access tunnel to the hangar deck.

Future Exo-Skull: [ Grunts ]

[ All scream ]

Ken Tennyson: Okay. Everybody out. Thank you for flying the Plumber Express.

Future Exo-Skull: The Star Core -- Where is it?

Ken Tennyson: Well, Ex-No-Skull, don't think it hasn't been a swell time had by all, 'cause it hasn't.

Future Maltruant: What are you doing, you hapless clod?! I told you the Star Core is on the Hangar Deck What part of that is so difficult to understand?!

Future Exo-Skull: Overgrown wind-up toy.

Future Gwen Tennyson: That should give us some breathing room.

Future Kai Green: Two Maltruants?

Future Maltruant: Or so it would appear to your primitive eyes. True -- I cannot be in two places at once, but if I time-shift rapidly enough, I appear to be everywhere!

Ben 10,000: One for each of us. How considerate. Okay. It's hero time! Oh, come on! What now?!

Future Kai Green: Maybe that Solar Flare knocked everything out.

Ben 10,000: He's a clock. How come he's still working?

Future Maltruant: Ah. You see? I skipped over that moment in time, so I still have power.

Future Gwen Tennyson: So do I!

Future Maltruant: Please! I travel back and fourth through time! You don't think I saw that coming?

Ben 10,000: Well, it's been a while since I've been a good, old-fashioned fistfight.

[ Both Grunt ]

Ben 10,000: Aaaaah! [ Biomnitrix recharges ] About time! (Ben 10,000 transforms into Atomic-X)

[ All screaming ]

Future Rook Blonko: Please board the escape vehicles in an orderly fashion, 10 to a ship.

Ken Tennyson: We've got trouble. Exo-Skull is on his way down to the hangar deck, and walls seem to be optional.

Future Argit: They're after me! They're after me, I tell ya!

Future Kevin Levin: Why does everything always have to be about you?

Future Argit: Hello! Is your name "Mr. President"?! They're gonna hold me for ransom -- or worse! Secret service, protect your President!

Future Rook Blonko: How did you ever get elected?

Future Argit: Aah! Aah! Aah! Watch the face! Watch the face!

Future Kevin Levin: Wait. He's after your jewelry?

Future Exo-Skull: Oh, yeah. [Laughs evilly ] That's the stuff.

Future Kevin Levin: Argit, what did you do?

Future Argit: I kind of, sort of took the Star Core and had it made into a necklace. The one in the Plumber Vault is a fake, but I swear I only wear it on special occasions. It brings out the colors of my eyes
