I haven't worn this suit in years.

Looking great, Grandpa.

Why do we have to dress up for this thing again?

Ben!

Why aren't you wearing your real suit?

I prefer function over fashion any day.

At least we're in time to see the decorations come up.

Oh, boy, does it feel nice to be back at my alma mater.

Alma what-er?

Alma mater!

[ Tools whirring ]

Whoa! Hector!

People, please evacuate!

We can't move unless you disperse!

Is anyone listening?!

[ Gasps ] Let's go, Four Arms --

Wait, Ben! If you use Heatblast,

you should be able to weld those joints together.

Oh! Good thinking!

It's hero time!

[ Beeping ]

♪♪

[ Laughs ] Ya!

[ Grunts ]

Gotcha! Ow!

Oh, that's hot.

Gotta be careful with those heights.

Thank you for saving us all and fixing our scaffolding.

Your feat was nothing less than spectacular.

Just doing my job.

[ Chuckles ] No need to be modest.

The way you alone saved us

and how you welded the scaffolding together --

what a fantastic idea!

Oh, uh, that was --

I am pretty amazing, if I do say so myself.

It was my idea.

Ow. That's hot. Sorry.

Well, to show our school's gratitude,

I'd like to invite you to tonight's gala

as a honored guest.

Honored guest?!

I'll be there! Great.

We'll see you tonight, then.

Did you hear that, Gwen?

I'm gonna be an honored guest!

Ben, aren't you forgetting something?

Oh, right.

I should put on a real suit for this!

Thanks for the reminder, Gwen!

[ Scoffs ] Can you believe this, Grandpa?

Ben didn't even mentio-- This is great!

We're honored guests!

Grandpa, it's just Ben!

[ Chuckles ] I'm so excited!

I swear, no one listens to me.

[ Laughs ]

Oh, ho!

Wow, this place cleans up pretty nice!

Gwen: I can't wait to see the cirque act on the stage.

Don't you mean circus?

"Cirque" is "circus" in French.

And these days, cirque shows

are pushing the boundaries of performance, art --

Excuse me! Whoa!

Look at the size of those checks!

They're Humungousaur-sized!

Yup, every year, the school gives donations

to various charities and invites them over

to present them those checks.

I bet they're worth a lot, too.

I mean, the bigger the check, the bigger the money, right?

Actually, Ben -- Wait.

Is that a buffet table?

They got double choco-chip cookies!

Unbelievable. A boy's gotta to eat, Gwen.

Oh! The Tennyson family!

It's great to see you here.

I was actually wanting to ask if you could help at the front,

checking in our guests.

Oh, well, uh, Gwen, can help you with that.

But I was looking forward to the cirque show.

Oh, I'm sure you'll be done by then.

Meanwhile, I'll help out Ben at the buffet table.

[ Groans ]

Ladies and gentlemen,

please help me in welcoming the dean of our campus,

Dean Dean Adina!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Thank you, Agatha.

Welcome to our Annual Alumni Appreciation Gala.

I'd like to take this moment to welcome our honored guest,

the hero of our community, Ben Tennyson!

[ Groans ]

We are so honored to have a, uh, refined,

stalwart hero such as yourself here tonight.

And it's only fair that we give the annual Alumnus Award

to his guardian, our school's very own Max Tennyson.

Oh, uh, uh... thank you!

[ Cheers and applause ]

[ Groans ]

Now, while I go grab the checks

to present to the representatives here today,

please enjoy tonight's entertainment.

[ All gasp ]

My eyes are swirly...

All right, you're on the list.

And that's the last name.

Hopefully, I didn't miss too much of the show.

Locked. They aren't keeping me out!

♪♪

My plan is coming along perfectly.

You three.

Fetch those huge, glamorous checks over there.

[ Gasps ] Go on.

I believe it's time for us to accept their donations.

[ Laughs maniacally ]

Gwen: Zombozo?!

Of course Zombozo is leading the cirque act,

because my day isn't horrible enough already!

Oh! Just the star I was looking for.

Boy, do I have plans for you.

[ Groans ] Why did I eat the whole plate?

That's the last time I eat double-chocolate --

[ Gasps ] Zombozo!

You really know how to ruin an act, don't you?

I'm about to ruin that smug look on your face, too!

Aah!

Who's this Zombozo newbie?

Allow me to introduce you to the star of tonight's act,

my dear Pirouette.

Wait, what? Aah!

You did great, kiddo.

The show is all yours now.

[ Grunting ]

Aha!

Now it's time for the main attraction!

But I'll need a few volunteers.

[ Whimpering ]

[ Laughter ]

[ All groan ] Quit lounging around, ya bums!

Now go tame that beast!

Tame the beast, huh?

I'd like to see you try!

[ All scream ]

Dodge this! [ Grunts ]

You can't dodge me forever!

[ Grunts ]

[ Chuckles ] You're pretty good.

But I'm better!

[ Grunts ]

Whoa!

[ Both grunt ]

I was wondering where you went!

[ Grunting ]

Ew, ew!

[ Grunts ]

All right, you've had your fun.

Now it's my turn! [ Grunts ]

♪♪

Aah!

Ha! Two for one.

[ Grunts ]

Aah!

Ouch.

Now all that's left is the newbie.

I'll tell ya what, since you're new,

if you give in now, I'll let you off the hook.

What do you say?

Wrong choice! [ Grunts ]

No one's ever done that before!

Huh?

Hello! Are you enjoying the show?

Great!

Now give me your money!

[ Both groan ]

[ Whistle! ]

[ Humming ] Thank you!

[ Laughs ] And you.

[ Baby cooing ]

[ Laughs ]

Here's Zombozo!

[ Screams ]

Bigger checks mean more money! [ Laughs ]

Zombozo's got the big checks!

You are really getting on my nerves!

[ Grunts ]

How are you so good at this?

[ Grunting ]

[ Laughs ]

[ Grunts ]

What's the matter?

Can't face me without your mask?

Gwen? But I-I don't get it.

Why are you fighting me? I could've seriously hurt you!

You're worried about hurting me?

Don't make me laugh.

You'll hurt anyone as long as it makes you look good!

Zombozo! Of course!

You're under Zombozo's spell!

Snap out of it!

Stop -- I'm not gonna fight you!

Why not?

Afraid I'll steal your spotlight?!

Spotlight?

Don't act so confused.

It's always, "Congrats, Ben!

Way to go, Ben! You're a hero, Ben!"

But what about me?!

I come up with the plans.

I've helped you defeat plenty of bad guys,

so you'd think I'd get at least one thank-you.

I just get pushed to the side

while you -- you get all...

the credit!

[ Groans ]

Why do I always feel so left out?

Go, Pirouette!

Take him out!

Be the star I know you are!

Go on, I deserve it.

I'm really sorry, Gwen.

I've been nothing but a jerk.

I didn't mean to take credit for all your ideas.

And without even realizing it,

I ended up hurting you.

Some hero I am.

Pirouette!

Quit stalling and take him out!

[ Groans ]

My name isn't Pirouette!

It's Gwen Tennyson!

Now let's save Grandpa and the others.

We just gotta destroy that!

Care to do the honors?

[ Grunts ]

[ Panting, grunts ]

[ All murmuring ]

[ Snoring ]

Huh? Hmm!

Give a kid a hammer and this is how they repay you.

Show's over, Zombozo.

You keep your money.

These checks are worth far more than that spare change.

[ Laughs ]

He's still got the big checks!

Whoa! Ben, everything's fine.

You can't cash those checks.

They're just for show.

[ Chuckles ] I totally did not know that!

I'm impressed you were able to break from Zombozo's control

on your own!

Ow! I was never hypnotized.

I just needed to teach you a lesson.

She hits so hard.

Max: Oh, there you guys are!

Grandpa!

I've been looking everywhere for you two.

Especially for you, Ben.

Two saves in one day, and all by yourself?

You deserve this more than I do.

Oh, thanks, Grandpa.

Oh, Ben! There you are!

Once again, we have Ben to thank for saving us!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Thank you! Thank you!

You can always count on me, Ben Tennyson, to save the day.

Who's your hero?!

[ Cheers and applause continue ]

[ Sighs ]

Wait!

Ben?

You all know me as your hero, but I'd like you to meet mine,

my cousin Gwen!

All: [ Chanting ] Gwen! Gwen! Gwen!

Couldn't have done it without you, cuz.

Aww! [ Laughs ]

[ Laughs ]

It's time for some big payday!

[ Grunting ]

Invalid check?!

What kind of bank doesn't take big checks?!

[ Siren wails, tires screech ] Rats!
