The Aliens are
already among us.
Strange creatures with
Unbelievable powers, aliens are
Real, but that isn't the
Amazing part.
This is.
All of the creatures you've
Just seen are actually alter
Egos of one man.
His name is ben tennyson.
kevin: You are so busted.
[ birds chirping ]
ben: That's not my best
Angle.
rath: Ugh!
gwen: Every channel, ben, all
Weekend -- nothing but you
Wrecking things, and they know
Who you are.
ben: Nobody cares if I'm a
Superhero!
kevin: Supermenace.
[ reporters shouting ]
[ camera shutters clicking ]
ben: Okay, maybe a few people
Care.
kevin: You should lie low for
A while, maybe go to julie's.
gwen: Good idea, but how do
You get past them?
[ reporters shouting ]
[ camera shutters clicking ]
ben, ben! Ben, ben!
Ben, ben, can I ask you a
Question?
Do you have a statement?
ben: Yeah.
It's hero time!
humongousaur: Humongousaur!
[ roaring ]
[ tires screeching ]
[ roaring ]
[ coughing ]
ben: [ coughing ]
Hey, gwen, you got a lozenge?
Growling's rough on my throat.
kevin: You should have used
One of your new ultimate
Transformations.
ben: I wanted to scare them,
Not me.
Thanks for letting me hang out,
Julie.
julie: I have to go to tennis
Practice in an hour, but you can
Stay here until I get back.
[ theme music plays ]
ben: Cable news?
julie: Extra credit for a.P.
Current events.
Whoa, this guy hates you.
welcome back to the
Will harangue nation.
Our top story -- it's got to be
Ben tennyson, -year-old
High-school student who's been
Outed as a one-man -- or should
I say "boy"? -- Alien invasion.
ben: Why does everybody use
That picture?
julie: You look cute.
ben: Really?
julie: Yes, sweet and goofy.
ben: [ groans ]
julie: [ giggles ]
footage gathered over the
Past year, but only now do we
Understand that all of these
Seemingly unconnected
att*cks...
ben: "att*cks"?!
...Were the work of
Ben tennyson in his various
Alien disguises for who knows
What sinister purpose.
ben: How about saving the
Whole entire universe?
How's that for "sinister"?
unbelievably, some people
Defend the actions of tennyson,
Claiming he's some kind of
Superhero.
Obviously ridiculous, but
That's not for me to say.
No, I leave that to you, the
Viewer, in tonight's poll,
"ben tennyson, thr*at or
Menace?"
Call in with your vote.
[ theme music plays ]
[ remote control beeps ]
[ television shuts off ]
julie: It's too nice a day to
Sit inside watching tv.
Why don't we go for a drive in
Your new car?
That always cheers you up.
ben: I don't need cheering
Up.
I'm not upset.
julie: Why not?
Everybody hates you.
ben: Maybe it's for the best.
Maybe I can do more good as a
Public superhero than I did in
Secret.
Sure, most people think I'm a
Menace now.
julie: Only % of adult
Viewers think you're a menace.
ben: See? That's not bad.
julie: % think you're a
thr*at.
ben: But my point is, once
People get to know me, I can win
Them over.
julie: That hasn't been my
Experience.
[ horn blaring ]
ben: What's the emergency?
kevin: Sometimes I think the
Only reason why you guys used to
Hang out with me was because I
Was the one who could drive.
ben: Well, maybe at first.
gwen: Ben!
kevin: While you guys have
Been moping around and hiding
From reporters, I've been
Working, looking for a real
Problem.
julie: "real problem"?
kevin: You know, something we
Can hit.
gwen: Ah.
kevin: I found the guy who
Figured out your secret I.D.,
Then blabbed it all over the
Internet.
I say we go give him a piece of
Our mind.
ben: Best idea I've heard all
Day.
[ siren wails ]
[ dog barks in distance ]
gwen: Julie is the only one
Of us with any common sense.
ben: She stayed back in
Bellwood.
gwen: That's what I just
Said.
[ electricity crackles ]
ben: Oh!
kevin: Shh.
ben: Why are we whispering,
Anyway?
kevin: Because the guy in
There is the mastermind.
We got to be ready for anything.
What are you doing?
[ door creaks ]
oh.
You must be friends of james'.
Jimmy!!
jimmy: I'm coming, mom!
gwen: That's your mastermind?
jimmy: Ben tennyson!
I'm jimmy jones.
Great to meet you.
kevin: Why did you do this to Ben?
jimmy: I-I don't understand.
Do what?
kevin: Ruin his life.
jimmy: I would never do
Anything to hurt mr. Tennyson.
I'm a fan.
[ gasps ]
gwen: That's enough, kevin.
Put him down and let him talk.
kevin: Ugh!
jimmy: [ sobs ]
kevin: Dude, you are not
Gonna cry.
gwen: Stop being mean, kevin,
Seriously.
kevin: Whatever.
jimmy: [ sniffles ]
I'm sorry, mr. Tennyson.
[ nose blows ]
ben: Why did you post that
Video?
jimmy: Well, I run a website.
I collect pictures of aliens
That people have taken all over
The world.
I noticed that a lot of them
Came from bellwood.
So, I started sorting the
Pictures.
Lots of them were wearing this
Symbol.
gwen: And you pieced together
Ben's identity from a picture of
Him wearing the omnitrix.
jimmy: Yeah.
I found stories all over the
Internet about how you've helped
People and saved the world.
I just thought everybody should
Know how cool you are.
gwen: We know you were trying
To help, but by revealing ben's
Secret, you've made it harder
For him to help people.
jimmy: I'm sorry.
I thought you'd like the fame.
You know, all the attention and
Money?
ben: Attention?
kevin: Money?
gwen: Why don't you show us
What you've learned?
jimmy: I've got pictures of a
Lot of your alien forms --
Humongousaur, goop, jeffrey.
ben: Jeffrey?
You thought I named one of my
Aliens jeffrey?
It's jetray.
jimmy: Hmm, that does make
More sense.
gwen: Who is this one?
jimmy: I thought it was
Mr. Tennyson.
It just showed up a few months
Ago.
All of the sightings have been
In orlando.
Hang on. I've got some video.
[ beeping ]
ben: No sound?
jimmy: I was lucky to get the
Pictures.
It's top secret.
ben: Road trip?
gwen: We can borrow ship from
Julie.
kevin: Don't have to.
We'll take the rust bucket.
ben: You want to drive all
The way to florida?
kevin: Not that rust bucket.
The new one.
ben: Whoa!
kevin: Nice, huh?
It was a standard plumber-issue
Ship, but I've made some
Improvements.
ben: Specs?
kevin: Supersonic in
Atmosphere, subspace hyperdrive
For effective ftl, bonus gizmos
I've acquired here and there.
ben: Sweet.
This is going to be the coolest
Thing I ever crashed.
gwen: Extranet access.
We can use our plumbers' badges
To access any database on earth,
Even secure ones.
ben: Bor-ing!
Make it go.
gwen: I found the source of
The video -- security cameras in
A top-secret nasa facility.
I'm sending you the coordinates,
Kevin.
kevin: Got them.
We'll be there in two minutes.
gwen: According to this,
They're building a starship.
kevin: About time.
Earth tech is so primitive, I'm
Embarrassed to tell my friends
I'm from here.
[ beeping ]
Trouble.
We're flying into restricted
Airspace.
Incoming!
This is a brand-new paint job!
gwen: Kevin!
Those guys are on our side!
You can't sh**t at them!
kevin: No harm done.
He ejected, and his parachute is
Only a little on fire.
ben: Open it.
jetray: Jetray!
he's gone!
I don't see him, either.
I -- there he is!
jetray: Gotcha!
Um, take me to your leader?
if you so much as twitch,
You're going down.
jetray: Whoa, whoa, easy,
Guys.
ben: I'm the famous
Ben tennyson.
I'm a superhero.
You have heard of me, right?
[ bars slam ]
I'm pretty sure I'm supposed to
Get a phone call!
let him out.
ben: How did you...
gwen: We showed him these.
even though the plumbers are
Secret, every government on
Earth recognizes your authority
In these matters.
kevin: Turns out nasa has a
Problem.
a problem I understand is
Right up your alley.
It's called the orion.
It's capable of traveling at %
Of the speed of light.
kevin: [ whistles ] how?
nuclear pulse drive.
Once clear of the earth, a
Series of atomic bombs explode,
Propelling it through space.
ben: Whoa.
we've been building her for
Over years.
But now, only months from
Completion, a series of
Robberies has practically shut
Us down.
gwen: Robberies?
a creature comes in here
Every night and steals pieces of
The ship.
Nothing we've tried can stop it.
I'm hoping maybe you people will
Have more luck.

Head.

Wasn't even sure I still had
This one.
[ electricity crackles ]
[ screams ]
Ugh!
gwen: Ben, are you okay?
ben: [ groans ]
we've got a big problem, son.
The first few times that thing
Came in here, it stole
Shielding, a control system,
Timing sequencers.
gwen: But this time?
this time he took the engine.
ben: And by engine, you
Mean...
a nuclear b*mb. Yes.
[ beeping ]
ben: Come on, guys, anything?
You've been at this for --
kevin: minutes.
And, yeah, we found the b*mb.
It looks like it's underwater.
gwen: I can get us there.
ben: Now I get it.
He's doing the same thing you
Always do, kevin.
kevin: Stealing?
ben: I think he's just trying
To fix up his ship.
Am I right?
bivalvan: You are correct.
Now leave me be.
I want to go home, and I am two
Minutes from launch.
gwen: If you launch your
Ship, the expl*si*n will destroy
All of central florida.
bivalvan: I'm not sure I see
Your point.
kevin: k*lling a couple
Million people isn't cool.
ben: We can't let you do it.
kevin: Also, there's some
Good theme parks here.
bivalvan: You would stand
In my way?
gwen: That cable's live.
If I drop the shield, it'll
Fry us.
[ beeping ]
spidermonkey: Spidermonkey!
kevin: Don't touch it.
gwen: Stop the clam guy.
We'll think of something.
kevin: We will?
spidermonkey: A face full of
Web ought to slow you down.
Whoa! Whoa!
bivalvan: There is nothing
You can do to stop me.
spidermonkey: Maybe not me...
But my new ultimatrix comes
With some new features.
There's a time to go hero, and
There's a time to go ultimate!
ultimate spidermonkey:
Ultimate spidermonkey!
[ roars ]
Give up?
bivalvan: Why should I?
ultimate spidermonkey: The
b*mb!
kevin: Got it!
seconds to spare.
ultimate spidermonkey: You
Did that on purpose.
gwen: You okay?
ben: Y-yeah, that's a little
Different.
Time for you to start talking.
Let's start with a name.
bivalvan: I am bivalvan.
I come from a small planet in
What you call the andromeda
Galaxy.
kevin: Long way from home.
What brings you here?
bivalvan: I was kidnapped,
Along with four others, by a
Monster named aggregor.
We managed to escape him but
Crashed here on your planet.
gwen: Where are the others?
bivalvan: I don't know.
We were separated.
ben: Four aliens that aren't
In the ultimatrix.
That's pretty cool.
gwen: Don't worry about your
Friends.
We'll find them and get them all
A ride back home.
bivalvan: And...What about
Me?
ben: Same deal.
I'll call the plumbers.
They'll take you.
kevin: [ grunting ]
[ electricity crackles ]
ben: We'll make sure the
b*mb gets back to nasa.
kevin: Not that we don't
Trust you, but we don't.
julie: You have to go in
Sometime.
ben: I could drop out.
julie: Last night, you were
Two feet from an atomic b*mb.
You can't be scared of your
Classmates.
ben: Everybody knows my
Secret, julie.
And if they've been watching
The news, everybody hates me.
julie: Not everybody.
[ applause ]
you've helped a lot of people
In this school.
You're all right, tennyson.
bivalvan: Hello?
Are you the plumbers?
Ben said you'd be here quickly,
But I didn't think...
Aggregor!
aggregor: No one escapes me,
Bivalvan.
