Grandpa Max: Wow.

The Duct Tape Kingdom is farther away than I thought.

You guys want to pull over and stretch our legs?

Nah, let's keep going.

Hold up. Is this...

[ Dog barking ] It's a pet park!

Look at all the animals!

♪♪

A-Animals? Uh, wha--

Oh, man! I'm gonna pet every single one!

Wait, Ben, I-I don't think that's such a good idea!

[ Ben sneezes ]

Uh, it's okay.

I must have grown out of all those allergies by now!

Oh, Ben.

You should probably leave the animals alone.

I said I'm fine!

[ Sneezes ] [ Cat yowls ]

Ugh.

I don't think you and pets are a good match, kiddo.

[ Sniffles ] This isn't fair.

I'd be the best pet owner ever.

Pets are a lot of work, Ben.

It might look like it's all fun and games,

but you still have to feed them, train them,

not to mention clean up after them.

Hard work. [ Chuckles ]

Especially when you're just as allergic to chores as animals.

That was a low blow, Grandpa.

At least you do a great job

taking care of the pet germs in your stinky socks!

Ugh!

Why doesn't anyone think I can handle a real pet?!

You have to admit you aren't the best

about cleaning up your messes.

That's because I'm cleaning up everyone else's messes

with my awesome alien Omnitrix that I use perfectly

because I'm very responsible!

So does that mean you'll help us tidy up the Rustbucket?

Ben?

Four Arms: Cleaning up messes.

[ Scoffs ] Just watch.

[ Grunts ]

Responsible. [ Mumbling, scoffing ]

"Got to tidy up." I'll show you.

If it wasn't for these allergies, I'd show 'em.

I'd be great with pets.

[ Leaves rustling ] Huh? What now?!

[ Animal grunting ]

Ohh!

I don't know who you are,

but you do not want to mess with me right -- [ Yowls, chitters ]

Hey!

Aww, look at you!

You some kind of cat?

Dog?

Rabbit?

You're like a, uh... ca-ca-ca...

Ca-do-bbit! Dang, I'm smart.

Ha! That's three pets in one!

Hey, I'm not sneezing!

My aliens must not be allergic to you.

[ Laughing ]

[ Purring ] My allergies! No!

Am I not allergic to you?

Only one way to find out.

[ Blows raspberry ]

Yep, all clear!

Come here, little guy!

I bet a mega-pet like you can do three times as many tricks!

♪♪

[ Glass shatters ]

[ Car alarm blaring ]

[ Laughs ]

I could play with you all day!

Grandpa Max: Ben, help us pack up.

We have to get back on the road!

No!

I finally found a pet I can hug without sneezing,

and I have to leave it for stupid chores?!

[ Chitters, purrs ]

[ Beeping ]

XLR8. Hmm.

You're fun and smart!

Well, it was Ben's turn to cook,

but it looks like we may have dodged a bullet.

You think he's okay?

Well, as soon as he can breathe again without sneezing,

he'll realize we're right.

[ Sparkle! ]

This place is spotless.

I like this more chore-positive Ben a lot.

I just wanted to be on my best Ben-havior

so we can get going

to that duct tape castle you're so excited about!

Right. The duct tape castle.

Yep! Duct tape castle!

♪♪

You're unusually enthusiastic about this.

Honestly, I'm glad you suggested we leave.

Some of the animals are creeping me out.

That sound means it's time to head out.

[ Device beeping ] Dr. Animo: The fish has taken the bait.

How you doing, buddy?

[ Laughs ]

[ Chomp! ]

You kids okay back there?

What? Nothing! Fine!

Okay?

[ Growls, chomps ]

Oh, I get it. You're hungry!

[ Snarling ]

[ Grunting ]

Time sure is flying.

I don't know about you guys, but I'm about ready for dinner.

There's a great little diner coming up.

Can't wait!

You're acting a lot weirder than usual.

Nope. Same amount of weirdness.

If you say so.

[ Snarls ]

[ Grunts ] Hmm?

Trying out the whole sleeping on the floor thing.

I hear it's great for your back.

Can you please just keep it down?

I really want to finish this book.

[ Cadobbit thuds ]

Okay, kids.

Who's ready for a good old fashioned

roadside diner experience?

Does that mean pancakes for supper?

Come on, Ben! Um...

Why are you making that face?

You know, just thinking about how great it felt

being responsible and getting all my chores done.

Is your blanket moving?

Yes.

Grandpa Max: Are you kids coming?

You're acting weird.

Just don't get between me and my pancakes.

Okay, buddy, good job.

I don't think they suspect anything.

You just hold tight, and I'll be right back.

Deal?

[ Snarling ]

Responsible! [ Snarling continues ]

Top ya off?

Ah, thanks.

Nice of you to join us.

Ha ha ha ha ha! Good one, Grandpa!

So what exactly were you doing in there?

Oh, very responsible things.

Really? Like what?

Uh, you know, turning out the lights,

checking the stove,

sorting the recyclables.

Oh, wow!

Look at those cool desserts

that are over there in that direction!

Anyway, yeah, responsible stuff like that.

If I didn't know better,

I'd call those pet owner qualifications.

Mm, I don't think so.

[ Screeches ] Why not?

Ben, even if you did have your allergies under control,

pets are living animals, they're full-time commitments.

Oh!

Aha!

Sorry about that. Sun in my eyes.

Sun? But it's after 8 P...M.

What is that?!

Everyone move! We'll protect you!

Ben, quick!

Turn into something big and strong

that can grab this thing!

Something big.

Strong. Wait.

[ Beeping ] No.

Not strong -- responsible!

♪♪

Maybe with this new form,

I can safely contain the cadobbit

in a most responsible way.

[ Omnitrix beeps ] [ Roars ]

It's me, old friend!

[ Snarling ]

Aah!

Perhaps I miscalculated.

Halt! It is me, your companion!

I do not understand what motivated

this shift in your demeanor.

Dr. Animo: Naive, Tennyson.

Dr. Animo!

I've certainly enjoyed

watching you fall in love with my creature,

only to break your heart!

Now that I've broken that...

[ Device beeps ] ...let's break the rest of you.

[ Beeping ]

[ Screeches ]

He's controlling my beloved cadobbit

with a devious, ear-mounted device!

Let's see if these plasma arms can even the odds in my favor.

Oh!

[ Electricity warbles ]

Whoa!

I need to retrieve

Dr. Animo's control device!

[ Electricity zapping ] [ Screeches ]

[ Fizzle! ]

What's happening?! Finish him, monster!

Your creator commands you!

Not without your stupid mind-control button!

You're a coward, Animo.

You make monsters to do your dirty work.

My greatest joy in life is experimenting on animals.

I know. It seems strange

when you can't grasp the nuances.

But you're right.

Sometimes, it's best to finish the job yourself!

[ Chomp! ] Ow!

Get off me, you useless mix and match house pet!

Cadobbit! You got me, Animo.

There's no way I can beat you as a 10-year-old.

Congratulations on embracing the truth!

So few people ever do.

[ Beeping ] Fortunately, you yapped for so long,

my Omnitrix recharged.

What?!

[ Muffled shouting ]

Pidge-bot, to me!

[ Mechanical whirring ]

[ Gas hisses ]

[ Coughing ]

This isn't over, Tennyson!

I will have my revenge!

Are you okay?

Yeah, I just have to find the cadobbit.

The what? Here, boy!

[ Squeaking, cooing ]

Huh?

What do you think, Grandpa?

Pretty responsible how I handled that, huh?

Hey! Come back!

Ben, Animo didn't make him to be a pet.

Besides, he wouldn't be happy

cooped up in the Rustbucket all summer.

[ Sighs ] You're right.

So what do we do with him?

See, Ben? This place is perfect!

Yeah. He sure looks happy.

It's the responsible thing to do.

I guess this is goodbye, little guy.

I might not be responsible enough for a pet right now,

but at least I'm responsible enough to admit that.

Hey!

Which might mean I actually

am responsible enough to have a --

No. Worth a shot.

[ Theme music plays ]

Dang, I'm smart.
