02x02 - The Big Tick

[bunniefuu]

Ahh. Nothing like finally
relaxing in the peace and quiet

Of the great outdoors.

Darn it, darn it!

I hate this stupid thing!

Or not.

Astronomers at mount
hamilton have caught a glimpse

Of a small meteor, and it
appears to be headed toward

The northwest part
of the state.

What's the matter, ben?

I figured i'd go accelerate
and hit that burger place in

Casper to pick up a double
cheeseburger with pickles,

But it looks like
i'm stuck here.

Ben, yellowstone
happens to be one of
the coolest places around.

Just hang out and appreciate it.

Gwen's right.

And we can live right
off the land.

Mm! Grub worms!

Full of protein.

eww!

You grill them up with a

Sun-dried tomato paste, they

Are...

Maybe i can help.

I'll take my burger with chili.

I can appreciate that.

Aah!

Huh? Whoa!

Uh, guys, what am i?

Now that's a heroic pose.

Real funny.

I can't believe i'm a new hero.

And where there's one

More--who knows--there could be

A hundred more.

Well, as long as they're not

As worthless as this one is.

So what do you think he does?

So much for breathing fire.

Hmm. Maybe i can
fire freeze rays

From my eyes.

Magnetic blasts?

Duck!

Huh?

This alien's got to go.

Whoa!

Don't you mean got to roll?

Look on the bright side.

You're headed in the direction

Of the meteor.

Ugh.

Whoa! It's huge.

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Oh, man.

And alive!

Whew! And quite aromatic.

I just thought that was ben

Not taking a shower for days.

and counting!

Rejoice.

He's arrived in all his

Glorious glory.

I await his proclamation.

Who are you guys?

Relax.

We come in peace.

That's what they always say

Right before they blow
you to bits!

Mm. An earthling
with attitude.

I've heard they exist here in

Large numbers,
or should i say "did"?

And an aburian pelorota
to boot.

At least we know what
you are now.

His presence here must be a

Sign provided by the great one.

Is he not tremendous?

Tremendous.

All hail the tremendous one.

But you're a little far away

From home, aren't you?

Actually,
closer than you think.

Unfortunately, there's

Nothing to go back to.

The great one purified your

Planet last week.

Shh! Everyone quiet down.

He's speaking to me.

I don't hear anything.

Only i speak his language.

The great one says your planet

Will be purified before the

Next moon.

You are quite lucky.

I don't think so.

No. It's actually quite
the experience.

Let me show you.

No. Not the audiovisual

Thing again.

We followed the great one

From planet to planet, galaxy

To galaxy after he paid a visit

To each and every
one of our planets.

Notice his technique, the deep

Burrowing of the appendages

Into the core of the planet,

Rotting it from the inside and

Then injesting it.

That's what he's going
to do here?

Of course.

Your cities will be laid to

Waste, your oceans will dry up,

Your mountains will crumble.

It will be the end of the

World as you know it.

Rejoice, rejoice, rejoice.

I don't think so.

Ben!

That's better.

Ben!

Aah!

Aah!

Oh, man.

This watch gives me a new alien

Out of the blue, and all it can

Do is roll around.

Totally no fair!

Oh, that's right.

Don't worry about the fact some

Giant planet-sucker is about

Wipe earth off the face of the

Universe because that's fair.

The trees are changing.

We have to get back up that

Hill and destroy it before it

Destroys everything.

Whoa! These weren't here when we

Rolled down the hill, were they?

No. I think we would have

Remembered them.

That big tick's poison is

Mutating the landscape.

Aah! Get your slimy
whatever they

Are away from me!

Unh!

Argh!

Unh!

Aah!

I'm sinking.

Ben, don't you think now might

Be a good time to go hero?

I'm trying.
What if i turn into something

Else that's useless?

Aah!

Oh, come on!

Go hero!

Come on! Go hero!

Ben!

Ohh!

Going up!

We really need to get you some
underwing deodarant.

Never was much for tug of w*r.

Time to tick off a tick.

What was that?

It appeaars, part of this planet

Is about to be liberated.

Yes, yes, i undestand.

What did he say?

He wishes us to see the effects
of his greatness.

And to witness his supreme
and ultimate power.

Yellowstone's becoming more and
more poisoned.

What was that noise?

Sounds like old faithful
is ready to blow.

I don't know what that tick's
poison could do to it

When it does.

One detour coming up.

I have visible recognition on
the elderly man

And pre-pubescent female.

But what are they riding on.

Two tons of putrid power.

Move it or lose it.

Not unitl we witness
the eruption

Of the great one's power.

Sorry, but that's
not gonna happen.

Hold on.

What are you doing?

Letting you off.

This fly's flying solo.

Get him.

Where did he disapear to?

Oh, yeah. Who's bad?

Help!

Ben!

Oh, man.
Where's an instruction manual

When you need it?

Come on.

Hey! Watch it!

Coming in for a landing!

What's he doing?

Beep, beep!

Get us out!

Never seen an intergalactic

Fender bender like that before.

Anyone need a lift?

It's getting bigger
as it feeds.

Then it's time it went on
the four arms diet.

Aah!

Ohh.

Ok. One down, to go.

Ok. I give.

This thing's indestructible.

Reverse beam flow.

Aah!

It's time for the final

Purification of your planet and

You along with it.

Please tell me we have a

Plan "b."

Unh!

What are we supposed to do

With these?

Before the great one can

Cleanse your planet forever, he

Must be cleansed.

No way!

I am not scrubbing that
thing's feet.

Unh!

Do what they say...For now.

He says he missed us.

It was not our fault,
o great one.

Please forgive us.

Forgiveness, forgiveness,
forgiveness.

Ohh! Could this get any nastier?

Aah! Gross!

Space lice.

We're running out of time.

And aliens.

I went everybody.

Not exactly everybody.

No way.

I am not turning into that ball

Thing again.

Plus i don't even know
if i could.

Don't try, and earth turns
into a giant cesspool.

I hate it when you're right.

It's shedding.

More like transforming into
something.

His beauty...

His power...

His pus.

The end is upon us.

Here goes nothing!

It worked! Unh!

Uh, now what do i do?

Destroy them all.

The scales will deflect

Their beams.

Ohh!

Ohh!

Unh!

Unh!

Time to rock and roll!

Aah!

Strike!

You're like a bowling ball.

More like a cannonball!

Unh!

Unh!

Actually, make that
a cannonbolt!

Let the digestion begin.

Digest this!

The bigger they are, the

Harder they'll fall.

Time to take this thing down

From the inside out.

Say ahh!

Nooooo!

Ugh! Ultimate yuck!

It's raining tick goop!

Ok. Now i need a shower.

Nothing.

The great one has been

Silenced...Forever.

You destroyed him.

Hail to the new great one!

Hail, hail!

Whatever.

Not too loyal, are they?

Huh!

I could get used to this.

That's right.

I forgot.

You're just an undeveloped
human specimen.

Well, when you put
it that way.

Enjoy the rest of your day.

Actually, it looks like
there will be many days to come.

It looks like everything's
going back to normal.

Hate to break it to you,

Gwen, but nothing we ever
do is normal.

Nice job, ben.

Yep. I'm the kid who saved
the earth.

I think my work here is done.

Me and my big mouth!

Uh, ben, you missed some tick
goop over there.

Oh, man.
