[ insects singing ]

[ rapid footsteps ]

[ rustling ]

[ breathing heavily ]

I think I lost him.

Think again.

Kevin, don't !

It's me, Alan!

I know.

What did I ever do to you?

You have something I need.

Ugh!

I'm made of fire.

I don't have anything else on me.

It's mine!

Whatever you're looking for,

I swear, I don't have it.

All mine!

More.

Goodbye, Alan.

Enough, Kevin!

Let me go, Tennyson!

Um, no?

Alan, can you hear me?

[ moans ]

[ rustling ]

I want your power.

Yes. Come and get it.

I'm gonna crack you like an egg.

Let go of me!

Shouldn't have let you go.

You were doing me a favor.

Only one of us is walking away from this, Tennyson --

and it's not gonna be...

Alan!

Your time is coming, Tennyson.

[ moans ]

You're gonna be okay.

No, I'm not.

None of us are.

I got off easy.

You should have seen what he did to the others.

Pierce? Helen?

And Manny.

And some guy named Dr. Vicktor.

I didn't understand what Kevin wanted from us until now.

Your energy.

And he's never gonna stop -- unless I stop him.

For good.

GWEN: No, I won't help you.

BEN: If you won't use your powers to track him down,

I'll just go find him myself.

But it's Kevin!

Wake up and smell the end of the world, Gwen --

he's out of control.

He's our friend.

Was our friend.

We'll figure out some way to save him.

He's too far gone.

Either we save Kevin, or we save the world.

I won't let you hurt him.

Out of my way.

He's come out of this kind of thing before.

Remember what he was like when he was little?

Do you?

He's worse now than he ever was, and you know it.

There has to be something we can do.

He's beyond our help.

We have to think about the safety of everyone else.

I'm not letting you out.

Yes, you are.

Chromastone!

I won't let you do this!

Go back inside, Gwen!

There's no way you can beat Chromastone

with your kind of powers!

Think so?

Facio gravis!

Now you'll stay here.

Yeah?

What do you think Kevin's doing while you're wasting my time?

Tabesco caix!

Terraspin!

If you think for one second that Kevin wouldn't drain you dry...

Some friend you are.

You won't even try to help him.

What if it was you?

I'm not going to argue with you anymore, Gwen.

Tardus motus!

NRG!

Ben?

NANOMECH: Nanomech!

I dodged between the lava droplets.

Cloudo doris!

Aah!

Game over, cousin.

Check and mate.

GWEN: Waybig.

You know why you lost?

Because you care about not hurting me.

And that's exactly why you can't do what it takes

to deal with Kevin.

[ pounding, screaming ]

Kevin Levin.

Where do I find him?

I said, where is he?

[ pounding, screaming ]

I'm sorry to bother you

while you're still recovering, Grandpa.

I'm always glad to see you, Gwen.

Anyway, I don't have a lot to do in this re-gen tube

but float and heal.

We can't let Ben destroy Kevin.

We've got to find a way to cure him.

Ben is right.

I know, he -- Wait, what?

You are a Plumber, Gwen.

A lot of people are depending on you.

You've got to put your feelings aside

and do what's right.

This is Kevin we're talking about.

If you can't be a professional,

then just stay out of the way

and let Ben do what needs to be done.

But, Grandpa...

I can't help you, Gwen.

Then I'll find someone who can.

[ breathing heavily ]

[ sniffing ]

[ chewing noisily ]

Look at you.

I never thought I'd see you like this...

Michael.

You're not catching me at my best.

Perhaps if you'd bothered to call first

before just dropping by.

It took a lot of going through police reports

to find your hunting area.

Hard to believe you've been reduced to draining energy

out of dogs in back alleys.

We all do what we must to survive.

Where's Tennyson?

He's busy.

And Levin?

Busier.

Enough with the chit-chat.

Your manna.

It's as intoxicating as ever, lovely Gwen.

You think I'm defeated?

l...

I can still...

I'm not here to fight you, Michael.

I'm here to help you.

Restituo navitas.

Argh!

Vis penetro intus.

No!

Vigoratus per vita.

Why would you do this for me?

Because...

I need your help.

[ communicator beeps ]

I'm done talking, Gwen.

I'm not Gwen.

But we are gonna talk about her.

She couldn't convince me, so she ran to you.

Something like that.

You agree with her?

No. Kevin's a menace.

Your friendship aside, the only responsible move

is to take him down with all necessary force.

BEN: Then I don't understand why you're talking to me.

It's the logical move.

It's the safest move.

It's the sensible move.

But?

It's not the Ben move.

You trust people. You give them second chances.

And they live up to your expectations.

Kevin was a sociopath when you were kids,

but you trusted him anyway.

And look how that worked out.

MAX: He's turned into a fine young man.

A hero a dozen times over.

But now he's a monster.

True.

And I'd put him down like a mad dog.

But I never thought you would.

You always find another way.

Not this time.

When I thought you were dead,

I had to do a lot of growing up.

You did fine.

For a while.

But then I let my fame go to my head.

I've been as big a jerk these past few months

as I ever was.

Aren't you gonna argue with me?

Not when you're right.

BEN: I've had fun,

but I always told myself that when the situation got serious,

so would I.

I'm not going to argue with you, Ben.

I just wanted to make sure you'd really thought about this.

I have, Grandpa.

I'm sorry about what's going to happen to Kevin.

Really, I am.

But this isn't kid stuff anymore.

Playtime's over.

[ footsteps approaching ]

[ roars ]

Why do you keep following me around?!

You've done business with Kevin before.

Sure, you know I have.

He really puts himself into his work.

If you know what I mean.

And I think you do.

Where is he?!

Watch it!

I'm still paying for this!

Answer me!

Not the arms!

They're the hardest parts to replace!

They're always on backorder!

I am not playing games, Vulcanus.

Where is Kevin?!

Even if I knew, I wouldn't tell you.

You didn't say please.

Toodle-oo!

VULCANUS: Nobody likes a bully, you know!

Stop holding out on me, Vulcanus!

Spill!

[ sputtering ]

Oh, if you keep it up,

I'm gonna spill something, all right.

[ belches ]

Huh?

Gwen!

Let him go, Ben.

You tell him, sister.

Just listen for a second, will you?

Out of my way, Gwen.

I'm gonna find Kevin, no matter what it takes.

MICHAEL: You'll never find him...

but I can.

What are you doing here?!

Why, I'm merely offering you my assistance

with your Osmosian dilemma.

Isn't that right, lovely Gwen?

Don't push it, Michael.

You brought Darkstar into this?

And he's going to act like he's our friend again, right?

He's the only one who can help Kevin.

Sure.

But I can help,

because you don't understand Kevin,

and I do.

You're making even less sense than usual.

Shh! Give him a chance.

I can help you, Tennyson,

because I can predict Kevin's next move.

Kevin and I are the same.

Uh-huh, you're both evil.

We both have an insatiable craving for energy.

And you're evil.

Kevin's not evil.

Somewhere deep down, he's still our friend.

No, lovely Gwen, he's not your friend anymore.

He just looks like him.

He's ...

an empty shell,

knowing only a hunger that must be fed.

That craving is his weakness.

Michael has a plan to cure Kevin.

I already don't like it.

MICHAEL: When the Dominus Librium was destroyed,

I managed to save a piece of it.

The energy-absorption thing you used to cure Kevin before?

Precisely.

Great!

Unfortunately, it no longer works.

Great.

But with a large enough power source,

we may still be able to tap into its inherent abilities.

You're kidding me, right?

Gwen's already wasted enough time

trying to find a cure for Kevin.

It's too late for that.

Every moment he's on the loose is a moment too long.

Now, for the last time,

are you going to help me find Kevin?!

'Cause if not, whatever else he does, it's on your head.

[ muttering ]

GWEN: Kevin?

Bad idea, Gwen.

What is?

Tracking me here.

I had to.

Ben's after you.

You brought him here?!

No, I came so we could talk.

You and me.

Yeah?

Yeah.

Ben is gonna do whatever it takes to stop you.

Do you understand?

Whatever it takes.

But I've come up with a way to help you.

If you just trust me, I really think I can cure you.

[ groaning ]

You shouldn't have come here!

Don't you realize I've been trying to stay away from you?!

Why?

Because I knew what I'd do to you if I had the chance.

Incendia absum!

Don't make me hurt you, Kevin.

Give it your best shot.

Silicis miles suscitatio!

You summoned Charmcaster's pet monsters?

I got to say, I'm impressed.

I'm so sorry I had to do this to you.

Thanks, Gwen.

And I didn't get you anything.

[ gasps ]

Hello, lovely Gwen.

[ screams ]
