03x14 - Primus

[bunniefuu]

[ crowd cheering ]

Vilgaxia is safe again,
sire.

The people love you.

Something wrong, my liege?

I find their
approbation...hollow.

Begging your forgiveness,
master -- how so?

You are the conqueror of
worlds.

All bow down to your might and
goodness.

Almost all.

Surely you don't let the fact

that Ben Tennyson has repeatedly
defied you --

Speak with care,
Psyphon.

Your counsel is valuable,
not irreplaceable.

Of course, master.

My point was simply that if you
so chose,

you could defeat Tennyson

and wrest the Omnitrix
from him.

I know you seek to goad me into
reckless action, toad.

But know this --

I am closer than ever to
controlling

the Omnitrix's power.

I will free you from your prison,
and in return,

you will tell me
what I wish to know.

The knowledge to
defeat Ben Tennyson,

the secrets of the Omnitrix!

Tell me, then I will
set you free.

Primus.

Master, what are you thinking
about?

Revenge.

KEVIN:
[grunting ]

Didn't we already
destroy this thing before?

Whoa!

Not this one.

Techadons are mass-produced
battle robots.

LODESTAR:
Too bad, so sad.

You just can't resist my
magnetic personality.

[energy humming ]

Don't let the gauntlet
get away!

Not this time.

Any last words?

[electricity crackling ]

Huh?

You are a piece of junk!

Omnitrix must return to
Primus.

Who's Primus?

Thanks.

Don't just thank me.

Turn into something and fight!

Ugh!

[ beep]

How about some
Humongousaur!

Humongousaur?

That function is not
available.

Omnitrix must return to Primus.

What's that all about,
Tennyson?

I don't know.

It's never happened before.

Where are all my aliens?

That function is not
available.

Omnitrix must return to Primus.

Somebody named Primus is
jamming the Omnitrix?

Never heard of him.

Ugh!

[ beeping ]

Guys?!

He's teleporting.

[all screaming ]

Ugh! Dude!

Sorry.

Didn't feel like being left
behind this time.

It was a clean hit.

So, what is this place?

Not a clue.

[ beeping ]

And the flashing?

Add it to the growing list of
things I don't understand.

Incoming!

You know, if I built
the Omnitrix,

I would've added a few
improvements --

like making it work!

Kevin?

Got your backs.

They're after the Omnitrix!

Good luck getting it off.

This thing's not going anywhere
without yours truly.

Huh?

Ha!

Who's the hero?

You're in trouble now!

Take that!

Choo-choo-choo! Choo-choo!

And some of that.

Pa-dow, pa-dow, pa-dow!

It isn't destroying
them.

It's scanning them.

Taking DNA samples?

Well, stop taking samples,
and start taking names.

You're Mr. Big-sh*t wielder of
the Omnitrix.

Wield something.

Omnitrix has returned to
Primus.

Ben Tennyson has fulfilled
purpose.

Omnitrix must find creator.

Wait, what?!

GWEN:
Don't let it get away!

I don't believe it.

The Omnitrix is...gone.

I lost the Omnitrix.

Azmuth is gonna k*ll me!

Dude,
he's already so mad at you,

it couldn't get any
worse.

Really?

No.

Whoa! Ugh!

Must be some of
the ones Gwen trashed.

Not a chance.

We're over a mile from where
I was blasting them.

Now that you mention it,
these are scorched,

like from a ray g*n.

So, we're not the only ones

who've got a bone to pick
with these things.

There's no rust, no moss.

The jungle hasn't grown over
them.

Didn't happen very long ago.

Good reason to keep on
moving.

[ birds screech ]

[grunting ]

Spidermonkey would so come in
handy right about now.

Hey!

After you, hero.

[ blades hacking ]

The slugs, the mud --

ugh.

The complaining like a girl.

Excuse me?

Sorry.

I was trying to insult Ben,
and it got away from me.

Better get used to being you.

What if you never get
the Omnitrix back?

It's a legitimate question.

BEN:
I've got to get it back.

I will get it back.

Without it, I'm --

Just a regular guy.

I know, I know.

Quit reminding me.

It's gonna take us all day to
walk around this thing.

No, it won't.

Now, this is more like it --
no mud,

nothing can touch us.

Aah!

Ben!

Aah!

Kevin:
I got this.

Ben? Kevin?

Ben! Kevin!

Where are you?!

BEN:
Up here.

[ coughs ]

What part of "I got this"
did you not understand?

Ugh!

This way.

[grunting in distance]

Vilgax!

GWEN:
And Humongousaur?

I'd say somebody else
b*at us to the Omnitrix.

It's got to be that
Primus guy.

He and Vilgax must be working
together.

KEVIN:
Then why are they fighting?

Oh, sure, I have to
figure out everything?

[growls ]

[ roars ]

A valiant effort,
but not nearly good enough!

Give me a minute.

I'm a little out of practice.

It's Azmuth.

Should have known.

The Omnitrix kept saying it was
looking for its creator.

Let me tell you
something, Vilgax,

conqueror of worlds --
Azmuth will defeat you!

Azmuth will hunt you down,

even though you're standing
right here!

You are no match for
the awesomeness of Azmuth!

[groans ]

We've got to help him.

You can't fight Vilgax
like this.

Stay here!

To the victor goes
the spoils.

Sorry to spoil your spoils.

Aah!

If you two are here,

then Tennyson cannot be far
behind.

At last,
the Omnitrix is mine.

No.

Behold, the power of
the Omnitrix.

VILGAX:
[laughs evilly]

Hmm.

[ beeping ]

Ugh!

Tell me how to use it.

Um...

no.

[grunts ]

Omnitrix,
I am your master now.

I command you...

Brainstorm!

Big Chill!

Ben Tennyson?

Azmuth.

Everything's going to be okay.

Did you just
"there, there" me?

The Omnitrix teleported me and
my friends to this planet.

Mm.

Now you must gather them and

leave this place while
you still can.

But the Omnitrix --

Is no longer yours,
Ben Tennyson.

Vilgax has it.

We can't let Vilgax --

I concur.

But its operation is beyond his
abilities.

And I would die before revealing
its secrets to him.

Now go, before --

VILGAX:
Ben Tennyson!

I know you are here somewhere.

If you ever wish to see your
friends alive again,

step forward.

KEVIN:
[groans ]

[groans ]

AZMUTH:
They're already lost.

There's nothing you can do.

I'll think of something.

Hero, remember?

Vilgax!
I'm here!

Let them go!

Ooh, good plan, Ben.

What?

You wanted me to let Vilgax
finish you off right then?

I'll remember that next time.

Let's worry about this
time first, huh?

Ugh!

I can't use my powers.

The headbands --

neural inhibitors.

Tell me, Tennyson,
is there a key?

A magic word?

You'd have to ask Azmuth,
not that he'd ever tell.

For your sake,
pray that you are wrong.

For if he does not, the great
Ben and his friends

shall be fed to the Codon
stream.

Codon stream?

That's bad, right?

You amuse to the very end,
Ben Tennyson.

[door opens ]

What's a Codon stream?

I thought that stuff
was green lava.

Seriously?

We're about to be boiled alive,

and you want to learn a new
vocabulary word?

The Codon stream is
the key to everything.

Azmuth!

Quick, chew through
our chains.

I am not a rodent.

Could have fooled me.

I just wished to
thank you, all of you,

for your service
to the universe.

What?!

We've had our differences,

but I know your
hearts are in the right place.

Although, if it were my design,

I'd move your hearts a bit more
to the center.

You're not gonna leave
us here?

What choice do I have?

The power of the Omnitrix must
be kept

from Vilgax at all costs.

Why, you little --

How about that Primus
the Omnitrix kept talking about?

Is he a good guy or a bad guy?

Can he help us?

Primus isn't a man.

Primus is this whole planet --

an organic machine
of my creation,

a verdant world where
the Codon stream contains

the DNA of every sentient
species in the universe.

Haven't you ever wondered how
I was able to collect a sample

of DNA from so many life forms?

BEN:
Those flying creatures
that att*cked me

and took the Omnitrix.

AZMUTH:
Volaticus biopsis.

I created those, too.

They wander the universe,

seeking the DNA of sentient life.

In any event,
when Vilgax arrived here,

Primus felt threatened, so it
summoned the Omnitrix home.

"Omnitrix must return to Primus."

Exactly.

And you were attached to it,
so you came, too.

Primus had previously alerted me
to its distress, and I came here.

I knew the Omnitrix would not
be far behind.

BEN:
"Omnitrix must find creator."

The Volaticus Biopsis
brought it right to me.

Not the way I would have chosen

to find out if the fail safe
works.

It's always better to test these
things

in the lab than out in
the field.

If all the DNA is here on
Primus,

what's inside the Omnitrix?

[ chuckles ]

Bright girl.

The Omnitrix is like a wireless
device,

communicating across
the universe

with the server that
contains its database of DNA.

Primus.

Without Primus,
the Omnitrix is useless.

VILGAX:
This world is important to you,
eh, Azmuth?

More important than your own life

or those of these insipid
children?

That leaves me an intriguing
option.

Tell me how to activate
the Omnitrix,

or I'll destroy
the whole planet.

No!

Ben!

Azmuth can't help you.

He's just trying to protect me.

I'm the only one who knows how
to work the watch.

That's not --

Button it, genius.

You'll make
the Omnitrix work for me?

If you let my friends go.

We have an agreement.

Teach me to operate
the Omnitrix,

and I'll free your friends.

But you, Ben Tennyson,
will die.

All right.

I guess I have no choice.

Ben, no-o-o!

I know what I'm doing,
Gwen.

Since when?

Ugh! Aah!

Ugh!

Show me...human.

See, when you turn the dial,

you have to be pushing in
at the same time.

[ beep]

Ben, no!

The power is
unbelievable.

I can do anything!

Almost anything.

What did you do?

I can't move.

I know.

I turned off Goop's artificial
gravity.

[groans ]

Who's the hero?

BOTH:
You are.

Everybody?

You are.

All I ask for is a
little credit.

Cannonbolt!

Yeah, buddy.

Feels good to be back.

If I go, you go.

I've got a better idea.

Aah!

Ugh!

GWEN:
You didn't do it on
purpose, Ben.

The guy totally had it
coming.

Beware.
It is not over.

The bioenergy in the Codon stream,
combined with --

VILGAX:
Ben Tennyson!

Prepare to meet your doom.

Yeah.
I don't think so.

Way Big!

I will destroy you!

Stop hitting yourself.

Stop hitting yourself.

Stop hitting yourself.

[laughs ]
Classic.

AZMUTH:
I suppose I'll have to move
the planet and hide it again.

You're welcome.

KEVIN:
Could you have acted
more over-the-top

when Ben gave in to Vilgax?

[as Gwen ]
"Ben, n-o-o-o!"

I was just trying to
help Ben trick Vilgax.

[ normal voice]
Sure.

Keep telling yourself that.

But now we've got a giant Vilgax

out there somewhere
to worry about.

The effects of the Codon stream

will wear off
shortly.

Meaning we've just got a
regular-size Vilgax to worry about.

So, uh, are we okay again?

I mean, does this make up for --

Damaging my Omnitrix?
No.

I shouldn't even allow you to
leave with it.

But will you?

You are welcome,
Ben Tennyson.
