Abort, abort!

>> many have tried, none have succeeded.

>> until now, slime ball.

Phil--wait!

>> uh--

>> back away, or watch one of your cities be destroyed.

>> never said i would, kid.

>> ah!

Uh!

>> you're too late. >> wrong.

My timing's perfect.

>> aah! No!

>> what are you doing?

>> sending vilgax out with a bang.

>> turn this off!

>> and then, kablam-o.

No more vilgax.

Or so i thought, until today.

>> whoa, you were a hero?

>> i was just a guy doing a job.

>> excuse me, but exactly what was that job?

>> we called ourselves the plumbers.

Officially, we didn't exist.

We were the guys who fixed the problems no one else could.

Extraterrestrial, extrasensory, extraordinary.

>> so all this time i've been going hero, i've really been

Following in your footsteps.

I'm a plumber in training!

>> and you knew about the watch the whole time?

>> not really, just rumor and scuttlebutt.

I was surprised as you guys when it turned up on ben's wrist.

>> you always told us we could tell you anything, grandpa.

Guess you didn't feel the same.

>> all right! Could be a chance for the plumbers to go back to work.

>> ugh, you should start by unclogging that hairball from your brain, mr. Plumber.

>> ah, you're just jealous 'cause you're not part of the family business.

>> there is no family business.

My hero days were over a long time ago.

>> well, mine are just getting started.

>> ben--wait!

>> time to xlr8.

Ah, ripjaws, what a rip-off.

>> there's some kind of creature inside, tearing up the place.

>> sorry, just needed to moisturize.

Ok, who's the punk giving us creatures a bad name?

Ah, ha ha ha ha!

You picked the wrong day to be an alien, pal.

Uh!

Mmm.

Ahh...

That's just a breath of fresh air to me.

>> anybody happen to see a giant talking fish come by here?

>> aah! Who are you?

Who am i?

Who are you?

>> uh!

>> looks like today's my lucky day. Two aliens for the price of 1.

Just sit tight, fish stick. I'll be back in a minute.

>> ahh... You gotta love room service.

>> uh--uh--

>> not bad for a fish stick, huh?

Uh, gotta go.

>> ben, are you all right?

>> uh, barely.

Some nut job in there nearly roasted me.

>> max?

>> phil!

Ha ha ha!

>> you know this guy, grandpa?

>> well, you could say that. We used to be partners.

Yeah, she's not much to look at,

But it's better than that old rust bucket of an rv you used to drive.

>> so, how are you?

>> pretty good, considering i just bagged a havoc beast.

Seems like old times.

>> you bagged it? As if.

It was ripj--

>> havoc beast, huh?

I haven't seen one of those since the one we caught terrorizing denver years ago.

>> yeah, well, good thing i was around.

You know, once a plumber, always a plumber.

You ever think about getting back in the game, max?

You know, relive the glory days?

>> no thanks.

I'm retired, and so are the plumbers.

>> yeah, thanks to you.

Once you took vilgax out of

The picture, the work just seemed to dry up.

>> i'm just doin' my job.

>> yeah, anyway.

Looks like things are picking back up again.

In fact, i'm starting my own freelance plumber business.

Wow.

Cool watch, it looks so familiar.

>> it ought to, it's the omni--

>> oh, look at the time. Well, we need to go.

Nice catching up with you, phil.

Happy plumbing.

>> i don't get it, how come you didn't tell phil about the omnitrix?

>> that's on a need to know basis only, ben.

The less people who know, the better.

>> guess that's your answer to everything, isn't it grandpa?

>> hey, why don't we start up the plumbers again?

You, me, and phil.

We'd be super alien butt kickers!

>> ben, i'm flattered you appreciate what i did, but you can't bring back the past.

>> max! If you're out there, i need help.

2 vulpamancers tearing up a meat processing plant on highway 44.

>> vulpamancers?

>> all right! The tennysons are back in plumbing business.

>> i don't like the sound of that.

>> phil!

>> max, thank goodness you showed up.

2 aliens--nasty.

We're gonna need a little of that old magic.

>> no worries, we're on it.

>> friends of yours?

>> wildmutts--maybe i can talk with them.

>> ben!

>>

>> that's why i recognized that watch.

It's the omnitrix.

>> what did you say?

>> vulpamancers never were big on small talk--even with their own kind.

>> gross!

>> what are partners for?

>> oh!

Don't suppose you've ever considered becoming vegetarians.

>> sorry about that, ben. Only way to bring down the vulpamancer.

>> yeah, lucky for us, you had a sonic pitch whistle with you.

>> so, all the stories are true.

The omnitrix really does exist.

And ben, pretty good moves out there.

You remind me of your grandfather back in the day.

>> really?

>> phil, look out!

>> uh!

>> why don't you pick on someone with more meat on his bones?

>> ahh, just like old times, eh?

I think this is gonna be the beginning of a new partnership.

It's fate that we all met up.

>> oh, ritzy suite.

Had to have cost a pretty penny.

>> just a little thank you i negotiated for helping

The manager out with his alien problem.

And trust me, this is just the tip of the old alien iceberg.

You know, ben, you'd make a great plumber.

>> i would?

>> sure, a real chip off the old block.

We'd all make a great team.

With your powers, max's experience, and my instincts,

We'd be an unstoppable team.

What do you think?

>> i'm thinking what an odd coincidence for a hyper weasel

And 2 megamutts to turn up on the same day.

>> aliens...

Go figure.

>> i, uh, need some fresh air.

>> hey, kids.

Order whatever you'd like off the room service menu.

>> now we're talkin'!

>> something's going on that grandpa's not telling us about.

Come on.

>> and pass up free room service?

No way, i'm stayin' here.

>> nah, you're right.

It's probably just some secret plumber's mission.

Better if we just stay out of it.

No grandpa.

>> and no phil.

But where would they go?

>> if grandpa thinks that alien weasel and those space mutts

Are connected, there's only one place to check out around here.

Hey!

>> hang on, pedal to the metal.

>> it's gone. >> looking for this?

>> the null-void projector.

I thought all those aliens were familiar.

You stole the null-void projector to release the ones

We caught back in the old days.

>> you always were too smart for your own good, max.

But not wanting to join up with me was just plain dumb.

>> why are you doing all this? >> job security.

I release an alien, then get some hotel manager or mayor or

Whoever to pay me to catch it.

Easy money.

>> i'm not gonna let you get away with this.

>> yeah, i figured you might say that.

Too bad, we could've made quite a team again.

>> uh!

Aah!

>> and don't worry, i'll be sure

To tell ben how your last words

To me were how you wanted him

To follow in your footsteps as my partner.

>> what the--

>> you're no plumber, you're nothing but a big drip.

>> ben, listen to me.

We don't need your grandpa.

We could start back up the plumbers again, just you and me.

>> forget it, and there's nothing you can do to change my mind.

>> sorry to hear that.

Say hello to an old friend, a wigzelian org beast.

I'd love to stay, but i've got lots of work to do.

>> no...

No...

No.

Where is it, where is it?

>> grandpa, could you pick up the pace?

'cause i sure can't.

>> got it!

>> uh...

Uh...

Uh.

>> where's gwen?

>> ha ha, and who says crime doesn't pay?

>> so, how many aliens did you store in that null-void thingy?

>> at least a couple of hundred,

But it's a portal to an alternate dimension.

In theory, it could have millions inside of it.

>> ah-- >> oh, no you don't.

>> uh!

Better start thinking about a new line of work, because this thing is going bye-bye.

Uh!

>> autopilot mode engaged.

>> uh--uh...

Uh...

>> good idea, we could use a distraction.

>> something tells me that's not the state bird of south dakota.

We need some muscle to stop this thing.

Four arms of muscle.

Grey matter?

I said muscle, not miniscule!

Triggering the correct sequence of synapses should allow me some

Rudimentary motor control.

Uh, sure wish i knew what i was talking about.

Uh!

Uh!

>> oh...

>> whoa!

Uh!

>> uh!

Back off, small fry, or i'll release every alien in this thing.

>> then you'll be out of a job.

>> it doesn't have to be this way.

We could all work together.

>> no way. This is one hero who's not for sale.

>> well, then you're all gonna be very busy.

>> sorry, i'm on summer vacation.

>> ben!

>> no!

>> see ya.

>> and i definitely wouldn't want to be ya.

>> who's next?

>> and that's the last of them.

I'm sorry i had to keep my past a secret for so long.

I should've known i could trust you guys.

>> it's ok.

>> and for what it's worth, ben,

You would've made a great plumber--both of you.

>> hey, we're your grandkids, what do you expect?

What about phil?

>> i think there are some things about this job we're better off not knowing.
