- Vilgax: I grow tired of this.
- [Vilgax touches the Omnitrix, and Stinkfly changes into Ben]
- Ben Tennyson: Hey! How'd you do that?
- Vilgax: A child? The Omnitrix is in the hands of a mere child?
- [Tries to remove the Omnitrix and gets hit with an enery discharge sending Vilgax flying back]
- Vilgax: It appears the Omnitrix has already merged with your DNA.
- Ben Tennyson: I, uh, don't suppose that means you're gonna let me go, does it?
- Vilgax: Hardly!
- 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*.
- Vilgax: The Omnitrix *wasted* on pointless heroics.
- Robotic Lieutenant: Shall I dispatch more drones to retrieve it?
- Vilgax: No. I will see to *this* task myself!
- Grandpa Max: It was just a bad dream, son. We can talk about it in the morning.
- [walks away]
- Ben Tennyson: It seemed so real. He looked right at me and said "I'm coming for you now."
- Grandpa Max: [Grandpa stops suddenly] Change of plan. We're hitting the road right now.
- Gwen Tennyson: Grandpa, it's 3 in the morning.
- Grandpa Max: Best way to beat the traffic.
- Grandpa Max: Ben, now is *not* the time to go alien. Do you understand?
- Upgrade: I was just fooling around.
- Grandpa Max: We can't afford to attract attention right now.
- Upgrade: What kind of attention could I attract in here?
- [Omnitrix times out]
- Grandpa Max: Never mind, Ben.
- [Ben and Gwen exchange curious looks]
- Gwen Tennyson: [after Heatblast traps Vilgax. The Rustbucket pulls up] Ben! Grandpa says to get in... NOW!
- Heatblast: What are you talking about? I'm just about to kick alien butt!
- [Omnitrix times out]
- Grandpa Max: Benjamin, get in!
- Gwen Tennyson: [after Ben changes to Stinkfly to fight the drones] Where are we going? We have to help Ben!
- Grandpa Max: We will, but first we'll need to get some special help.
- Gwen Tennyson: Let me guess. At Mount Rushmore? Grandpa, you're really freaking me out!
- Gwen Tennyson: [when they've reach Mount Rushmore] I don't think tourists are allowed on this road.
- Grandpa Max: We're not tourists, we're *tenants*.
- Gwen Tennyson: [inside Mount Rushmore] 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 how do you know that alien guy who's after Ben?
- Grandpa Max: Well it's kind of complicated. But let's just say...
- Grandpa Max: [pulling out a large weapon] ... I wasn't exactly your normal plumber before I retired.
- Grandpa Max: This weapon is keyed into Vilgax's biosignature. Hopefully it will take him down for *good* this time.
- Gwen Tennyson: "This" time?
- Grandpa Max: I've got to get this ship under control!
- [runs to a control panel]
- Upgrade: He can fly a spaceship?
- Gwen Tennyson: At this point, *nothing* surprises me.
- Grandpa Max: [after the Rustbucket lands on the ground] You all right, Gwen?
- Gwen Tennyson: [groans] At times like this, going back to school doesn't seem so bad.
- Gwen Tennyson: [after Ben lands as Vilgax's ship self-destructs] Not bad for a doofus.
- Ben Tennyson: Grandpa, we need to talk.
- Vilgax: [finding that Grandpa Max has set his ship to self-destruct] TENNYSON! You are the thorn in my side.
- Ben Tennyson: [shooting Vilgax in the back with a smirk] Guess it runs in the family.
