>> now, this is cool.

Picked up in a billionaire's private jet to check out his

Brand-new hotel before anybody else.

Now we're talking a summer vacation. Thanks.

>> i'd do anything for you guys. You know that, ben.

>> how come you never told us before that you knew donovan grand smith?

>> must have slipped my mind.

>> max tennyson, it's been way too long.

>> how are you, donovan?

>> well, with 16 resorts worldwide, i'd say pretty good.

Glad you finally decided to see how the better half lives.

>> these are my grandkids ben and gwen.

>> and this is my grandson edwin.

>> hi. >> yeah. Whatever.

>> ready to take the plunge?

>> you sure this was the safest place to build a resort like this?

>> you're talking underwater fault lines?

>> i'm talking more like you're smack dab in the middle of the bermuda triangle.

>> growing up, you always were the worrywart, max.

Never the risk-taker.

I give you the world's first and only underwater resort.

You won't believe what's down here.

>> ¶ it started when ¶

¶ an alien device did what it did ¶

¶ and stuck itself upon his wrist ¶

¶ with secrets that it hid ¶

¶ now he's got super powers ¶

¶ he's no ordinary kid ¶

¶ he's ben 10 ¶

¶ you might be in for a big surprise ¶

¶ he'll turn into an alien ¶

>> the official grand opening's only a week away.

Just a few special v.I.P.S like you are getting a sneak peek.

Sure beats that old rusty bucket of bolts you sleep in, doesn't it, max?

>> i read about your resort in "pacific monthly oceania," mr. Grand smith.

Very cutting edge.

Isn't the glass reinforced with--

>> butt-kisser.

>> micro-titanium threads to withstand up to 10 atmospheres.

Nobody gets wet here unless it's in one of the 9 pools.

>> very impressive, donovan.

>> well, for $2 billion, it ought to be.

But, you know, money isn't everything.

>> we change the family motto, grandpa?

>> hey, i'm into sumo slammers, too.

Where'd you score that pin?

>> sumo slammers slam-down v in helsinki.

We flew on my grandpa's private jet just to get it.

>> and edwin says the pin's already tripled in value.

Kid's got a head for business.

Grooming him to take over the empire one day.

Gotta keep it in the family.

>> i've sort of been following in my grandpa's footsteps this summer, too.

>> what happened?

>> a power surge must have caused the water to suddenly recycle itself.

>> will he be ok?

>> hmph. If the sharks don't get him first.

>> i can't have an employee turned into fish food right before the opening.

The press will ruin me.

>> time for ripjaws to take a dive.

>> what was that?

>> what was what?

>> oh, man.

For once i was better off as me.

>> who-oa!

>> are you ok?

>> so, where's your cousin?

>> just hanging.

Uh, anyone have a ladder?

>> well, i'll have to double his salary, but he won't breathe a word.

Anyway, who'd believe him?

He said some 6-inch rat with two legs saved him.

>> buy him off.

Now, that's the grand smith way.

>> ahem. Edwin, why don't you take ben and gwen on a tour so their

Grandpa and i can catch up on old times?

>> oh, man. >> ugh.

>> oh, max, it's too bad you didn't take me up on my offer 30 years ago

When we were both dead broke.

You wouldn't have had to spend your life unclogging drains and

Fixing toilets while i traveled the world.

>> you'd be surprised. Being a plumber can have its moments.

>> nice. >> not bad.

In the morning, i have my own swim coach and personal trainer to work out with.

>> you're a swimmer?

>> long-distance. My grandpa says it builds character.

>> "my grandpa says it builds character."

Whoa!

>> it's called the undersea manta ray.

It's my grandfather's.

>> well, it looks cool.

>> you want to take it for a ride?

>> definitely.

>> you sure it's ok?

>> a reverse power surge caused the whirlpool effect, but it's fixed now.

>> must take a lot of juice to keep this place lit up.

That can't come from the mainland.

We're too far offshore.

>> volcanic vents on the ocean floor.

We tap into them like a big steam generator.

>> hey, what's behind that panel?

>> um, nothing. It's just a backup generator.

Now watch this.

I have enough energy to illuminate the outside so bright,

It's visible 500 feet above sea level.

Now for my prized possession-- the undersea manta ray.

Edwin!

>> wow! Some of these fish look totally prehistoric.

Ok. Now, that's weird.

>> and that's weirder.

>> what do you think those creatures want?

>> i don't think it's to play marco polo.

>> we've gotta get back to the hotel.

Grandpa, do you copy?

>> turn me into wildmutt, you're dead meat.

>> ok, now we're talking.

>> hey, what happened to your cousin?

>> he must have gone to the bathroom.

>> ok. Wait. There's no bathroom on this thing.

>> just drive!

>> edwin, you know the undersea manta ray is off-limits.

>> we're under attack by creatures, and we're sinking.

>> edwin, if this is some sort of--

>> it's no joke, donovan.

>> we've got evacuate the resort now.

>> overrun by aliens.

There goes my 5-star rating.

>> we won't make it back.

>> where'd that thing come from?

>> relax.

It looks like he's on our side.

>> there's a boat beside the platform. Take it.

>> i don't go anywhere without my grandkids.

Get ready to close the door.

Now.

>> we're flooding.

They broke the glass.

>> i knew you shouldn't have taken it. I knew it.

>> edwin, quiet. I'm sure it has nothing to do with this.

>> taken what, donovan?

>> edwin doesn't know what he's talking about.

>> how would you know? All you ever hear from me is what you want to hear.

>> let's go.

Donovan, what is going on?

>> ok. The underwater volcano thing didn't work.

The resort was doomed.

I was about to become a punch line to a bad joke.

Then i found this other energy source on this weird craft way down below.

It was like nothing i'd ever seen before.

>> and now i bet those aliens want it back.

>> yeah. The same ones with the underwater parking lot full of boats and planes.

>> 28 years on the job, i never found out who was behind the bermuda triangle.

Now they're coming for us.

>> look on the bright side, grandpa.

You still have 15 resorts worldwide.

>> aah!

>> no!

>> aah!

>> no!

>> donovan, stop this thing.

>> i can't.

>> we're gonna be flattened.

>> we're not gonna make it.

>> yes, we will. Now, put your head down and brace for impact.

>> whoa. Who is--

>> just another good alien trying to help us out.

>> hold on!

>> look out!

>> my wings are too wet. I can't fly. And, oh, yeah.

I can't swim either.

>> don't worry. We got you, ben.

>> that's not ben.

>> yeah. Right. Good aliens just showing up to help us

While your cousin always happens to be gone?

How dumb do i look?

So how do you do it?

>> edwin, listen to me.

That energy orb--if the aliens are here for it, we have to get to it first.

>> all right. Let's get it.

But it's all the way on the other side of the resort.

>> but we won't make it in the water.

>> who said anything about swimming?

>> ah, the navy's closest sub is in key west.

It could be a half-hour before they're here.

>> any way to communicate with the kids down there?

>> no. I already tried.

The flooding must have ruined the line.

>> i don't know what's scarier: The smell of wet stink or these aliens.

Edwin, there must be a faster way to get to the orb. Right?

Aah!

>> all right! Now we're talking.

>> ben!

>> thanks. >> thank you.

That was awesome.

Hey, look out!

>> your grandkids really seem to look up to you, max.

What's your secret?

>> well, i don't expect them to be many versions of me.

I let them be themselves, faults and all.

>> you only brought them here because they wanted to come, not because you did.

Am i right?

>> yeah. This trip was for them.

>> i can't remember the last time i did anything for edwin

That i didn't want.

I just hope they're going to be ok.

>> you know, grandkids have an amazing way of rising to the occasion.

>> if that orb can power this whole resort, just imagine what those aliens did with it.

>> stealing all those ships and planes would be a good guess.

>> maybe if we reversed the connections, it would turn its outward power inward.

>> and make the whole resort implode.

>> with those aliens in it.

>> good thinking, edwin.

>> thanks. But we still need to get out of here.

>> i have an idea.

>> how much time do you think we have?

>> not much.

>> get in.

>> that thing's your escape plan?

It's only for show.

>> and when i'm done with it, it'll be for go.

>> how did you get that sub to work?

It hasn't run in 80 years.

>> it's like i said, donovan.

Grandkids have an amazing way of rising to the occasion.

>> the good news is that all the aliens are toast.

>> the bad news is that so is the resort, grandpa.

>> hey, who cares?

You're all ok, and that's all that matters.

You'll have to fill me in on the details, edwin.

>> most of them.

And the name's eddie, grandpa.

>> thanks for everything.

>> no problem.

Well, so much for your one-of-a-kind resort, donovan.

>> yeah. Well, it just gives me more time to focus on my next one.

It's going up on the moon.

Max, how about you and the kids being my first guests?

>> no, thanks.
