(The Rust Bucket parked at the Everglades in Florida as Max, Gwen and Allison walked out and admired the area.... Well, at least Max did.)
Max: "Looks like we beat the crowd."
(Max said, stretching and yawning.)
Gwen: "Yeah... Are you sure this is the right place, Grandpa?"
(Gwen asked.)
Max: "Positive."
(Max said.)
Max: "Tomorrow, this place will be crawling with Gator Fest fans."
Allison: "I always hated Shark Week."
(Allison said.)
Allison: "I doubt I'll like Gator Fest."
(Gwen groaned as she stepped into the mud of the swamp with a glare as Allison sighed.)
Allison: "I know. I'm worried too."
(Meanwhile, Ben smirked in mischief as he put up a screwdriver as Jen sat next to him and groaned as she strummed her guitar.)
Jen: "What are you doing, bro?"
(Jen asked.)
Ben: "Who knows how many other alien heroes are inside these things? I just have to figure out how it works."
(Ben said.)
Jen: "You shouldn't mess around with these, bro. It's a disaster waiting to happen."
Ben: "Just chill out, sis. I know what I'm doing."
Gwen: "That'd be a first."
(Gwen said walking over as she, Max and Allison walked over and Allison groaned and rolled her eyes.)
Allison: "Okay, I'll be in the Rust Bucket."
(she said.)
Allison: "When the fiasco's over, come get me."
Max: "Your sister is right, Ben."
(Max said.)
Max: "I want you to promise me that you'll go easy on the Omnitrix. If you mess with it too much, who knows might happen to you? And to your sister?"
Ben: "Okay, Grandpa."
(Ben said.)
Max: "Now don't stay up too late, you guys. Tomorrow's a big day. Good night."
(he said as he and Gwen followed Allison back into the R.V.)
(Ben then immediately went back to work with the screwdriver and a determined look on his face as Jen then immediately lightly banged her head on her guitar.)
(Suddenly, the faceplate of Ben's Omnitrix popped off and landed on the ground nearby as the twins looked on.)
Jen: "Oh no."
(Jen said.)
(Suddenly, their Omnitrixes started surging off green and pink energy as Jen slapped Ben upside the head as the energy engulfed them.)
Jen: "I'm going to kill you, Ben!"
Ben: "Oh man."
(Ben said once the energy faded from them.)
Ben: "I am going to get so busted if anybody sees this!"
(Jen then looked and saw her Omnitrix was malfunctioning as well, giving off small sparks of pink energy before it faded from view as she sighed.)
(Ben then walked over to the faceplate with a sigh.)
Max: "Ben, Jen?"
(Max asked as he walked out with Gwen and Allison in tow.)
Gwen: "What was that?"
(Gwen asked.)
Allison: "Nothing good, I'm sure."
(Allison said, rolling her eyes.)
(Ben and Jen immediately played innocent as Ben held his faceplate behind his back.)
Ben: "What was what?"
(Ben asked.)
Max: "What was that noise?"
(Max asked.)
Jen: "Uh... lightning."
(Jen said.)
Gwen: "There's not a cloud in the sky."
(Gwen said.)
Ben: "Uh, lightning got rid of them?"
Allison: "They're up to something, Max."
(Allison said.)
Ben: "You two are so paranoid!"
(Ben said.)
Ben: "They're just trying to get me into trouble."
Max: "Okay, that's enough."
(Max said.)
Max: "Let's go, the four of you. Bedtime."
(As they walked away, the twins looked at the discarded faceplate with a sigh.)
Jen: "The Omnitrixes are linked, Ben."
(Jen said.)
Jen: "Any kind of malfunctions you cause to yours will affect mine too."
Ben: "I'm sorry."
(Ben said.)
Ben: "I'll find a way to fix it."
Jen: "You'd better."
(Jen said.)
Jen: "Because if you don't, it's your funeral."
(They then walked back towards the RV, not noticing the plants growing from the still growing energy where the faceplate landed.)
(The next morning, Ben checked to see if the others were still asleep before silently walking out of the Rust Bucket and closed the door before he took his chewed bubble gum out of his mouth and his faceplate out of his pocket.)
(He pulled the gum into a string and fit it around the rim of the faceplate and stuck it back onto his Omnitrix with a smile.)
Ben: "There, good as new."
(Ben said.)
Gwen: "What's good as new?"
(Gwen asked as she and Allison walked by, startling Ben.)
Ben: "Wish I could say your face but it's the same as always, Gwen."
(Ben said.)
Gwen: "Is it just me or has the Florida heat fried your brain, Ben?"
(Gwen asked, walking off as Allison put her hands on her hips as Jen walked out with a yawn as she saw this.)
Allison: "Okay, Ben. What's going on?"
(Allison asked.)
Ben: "Nothing."
(Ben said as Allison glared.)
Allison: "I'm not stupid, Ben. You're clearly hiding something."
(she said before she turned to Jen.)
Allison: "Luckily, I have a best friend who never hides anything from me."
Jen: "He popped the faceplate off his Omnitirx with that screwdriver last night."
(Jen said.)
Allison: "Ben, you didn't!"
(Allison said.)
Ben: "I'm sorry!"
(Ben shouted in panic.)
Ben: "Please don't tell Gwen or Grandpa! Please!"
Allison: "Fine."
(Allison sighed.)
Allison: "I won't tell. Besides, it's going to blow up in your face anyway."
Jen: "I'm afraid of how it's going to affect mine."
(Jen said as she showed her Omnitrix, which was still not responding to any of her commands.)
Ben: "I am too."
(Ben said as they followed Gwen around the RV when their jaws immediately dropped at the sight before them.)
(Gator Fest was totally underway with stands everywhere and cars and trailers parked throughout the swamp lands as well.)
(There was gator juice stands, a toy stand, a fishing area for the kids with small gator stands in them, alligator po' boy stands, gator pelt handbags, you name it.)
Max: "Told you."
(Max said, walking away.)
Max: "Let the gator fest begin."
(They then smiled and walked towards the festival, not noticing a familiar frog creature with red eyes and two tusks lurking in the swamp behind them.)
(As they walked, the camera motioned to two fishermen fishing in the swamp as one of them dug in the mud for bait.)
fishermen: "Hey, Larry."
(he said.)
fishermen: "Check out these weird worms I found."
(He held up the worms in his hand that had Stinkfly's heads on them as they squirmed around in his grasp.)
Larry: "Freaky."
(Larry said?)
(They then joined a crowd that held a bunch of eggs in them.)
Max: "You know, I think you kids are going to enjoy this."
(Max said.)
Max: "This is a rare event."
Jen: "You mean like Ben changing his underwear?"
(Jen asked as Ben glared.)
Ben: "Hey!"
(Ben shouted.)
Jen: "Shut up! I live with you! It's gross!"
(Jen shouted back.)
(They then saw cracks form in the eggs as the baby gators hatched from them and chirped.)
the crowd: "Aw!"
(the crowd admired as before cheering once the gators crawled into the swamp.)
Gwen: "Aw, they are pretty cute."
(Gwen admitted.)
Allison: "Alligators."
(Allison said.)
Allison: "They have them here down South. They don't have them in New York, so I've never seen them."
Jen: "They don't have them in California either."
(Jen said.)
(That was when the baby gators suddenly crawled back up to the shore and away from the swamp.)
Ben: "Uh, what are they running from?"
(Ben asked.)
Ben: "They're alligators."
Max: "That's very odd."
(Max said.)
Max: "What do you think'd make them do that?"
Gwen: "I'll give you one guess."
(Gwen said, suddenly panicked.)
Gwen: "And it goes 'ribbit!'"
(The mutant frog from Washington D.C. suddenly leaped out of the swamp, sending the rest of the spectators running off in a panic while our heroes could only stare in awe, including Allison.)
Jen: "No way."
(Jen said.)
Jen: "I recognize that croaker!"
Ben: "I do too!"
(Ben said.)
Ben: "That's Dr. Animo's frog!"
Allison: "Who?"
(Allison asked.)
Jen: "He's this deranged scientist who experiments with animals. Turns them into these strange beasts."
(Jen said.)
Jen: "Trust me, he's completely insane. Not someone you would ever want to meet."
(The frog shot its tongue out at them and the twins gasped as they rolled out of the way as they gasped.)
Ben: "This is so not my idea of leap frog."
(Ben said as Jen shook her Omnitrix off.)
Ben: "This looks like a job for the Omni Twins!"
(Unfortunately, the faceplate slipped back off Ben's Omnitrix as the gum lost its adhesiveness.)
(Jen felt a presence behind them as they looked and saw a familiar face behind them.)
(Animo looked virtually the same as he did in D.C., only his Transmodulator now had two gorilla-like gauntlets.)
Jen: "Dr. Animo!"
(Jen gasped.)
Jen: "How did-"
Animo: "I find you two?"
(he asked.)
Animo: "It wasn't difficult to track your alien exploits when you insist on helping people all the time, Omni Twins!"
Jen: "I was going to ask how you escaped."
(Jen said.)
Jen: "But that works too."
Animo: "You two thought you were such big shots after you stopped my mutated creations! But they were merely the beginning! I will not be denied my place in history! Not this time! Destroy them!"
(The mutant frog immediately shot its tongue at them, prompting them to jump out of the way as Jen fiddled with her Omnitrix.)
Jen: "Please work, please work!"
(she begged as she twisted the dial and pressed the button on the side as her body was instantly coated in her Omni Suit.)
Jen: "Hey, it worked!"
(Ben then nodded and activated his Omni Suit.)
Ben: "The Omnitrix still works!"
Max: "You're going back where you belong, Animo!"
(Max shouted, walking by.)
Animo: "Never!"
(He then stuck out one of his gauntlets and shot out a red energy blast from it, prompting Max to dive out of the way.)
Ben: "Okay, Animo! Party's over!"
(Ben shouted as he and Jen looked nervously at their Omnitrixes as they sparked out energy before nervously slamming down the cores, transforming.)
Max: "Ben, Jen? You're..."
(Max asked as Allison and Gwen looked on in awe.)
Both: "...Stink Arms and... Battle Head?"
(The twins looked at each other in awe as they had transformed into a combination of Stinkfly and Four Arms and Battlefly and Diamondhead respectively.)
(Stink Arms mostly resembled Four Arms with a few of Sinkfly's characteristics.)
(Four Arms' eyes were replaced by Stinkfly's eye stalks.)
(He also had Stinkfly's tail and wings.)
(He wore a shirt based on Stinkfly's suit and Four Arms's pants.)
(Stink Arms wears the Omnitrix symbol on his face much like Stinkfly.)
(Battle Head mostly looks like Diamonhead, but with a couple of Battlefly's characteristics.)
(Her body was coated in crystal, but had the humanoid butterfly shape and Battlefly's Battlefly's pink compound eyes, wings and antennae sticking out of her forehead.)
(Her shirt is based on the top part of Battlefly'sleotard and her pants resembles the bottom half of Diamondhead's jumpsuit.)
(Lastly she wears Battlefly's belt, where the Omnitrix's symbol is located.)
Stink Arms: "Four Arms and Stinkfly's bodies?"
(Stink Arms asked in Stinkfly's voice.)
Battle Head: "Battlefly and Diamondhead? That's a match made in hell!"
(Battle Head shouted in Battlefly's voice.)
(Stink Arms leaped over the frog with a glare as Battle Head desperately flapped her wings, struggling to get off the ground due to the mass shift as she crashed face-first as she dodged the frog.)
(The pair then spied the discarded faceplate and sister glared at brother with venom-filled eyes.)
Stink Arms: "Must be another new alien!"
(Stink Arms suggested.)
Stink Arms: "Now I can fly and kick butt at the same time! Cool!"
Battle Head: "Wishful thinking, brother."
(she said.)
Battle Head: "My wings are too delicate to carry this mass!"
(The frog then leaped onto the Tetramand hybrid and leaped up as he struggled to lift him up as he groaned.)
Stink Arms: "Either you've gained weight since last time or I'm not as strong as I used to be!"
(His grip finally gave way under the frog's weight before he leaped away.)
Battle Head: "Let's see you try that with me!"
(Battle Head shouted as she twirled her arms before she fired a cyclone blast that slightly blew the frog backwards before she nodded before she hovered off the ground with some difficulty as she shot her hands out and sent a few crystal shards at the frog as they shattered off the amphibian's thick skin.)
(Stink Arms tried hovering as well, but like his sister, he couldn't fly very far off the ground due to his body mass.)
(The frog then tackled him into the swamp, splashing water around and catching the attention of the gators as they struggled.)
Battle Head: "Okay."
(Battle Head said a she put her hands to her head and tried to manipulate the plants only for absolutely nothing to happen.)
Battle Head: "Oh no!"
(She then hovered into the swamp as she morphed her hands into blades and tackled the frog, stabbing at it with a shout as it chased her brother.)
(They then passed by the discarded faceplate as a stray crab crawled by it as it leaked out energy.)
(The frog bucked Battle Head off of him as she landed on the ground in a heap, hurt as she sighed.)
Battle Head: "These two aliens don't work together!"
(she shouted.)
Battle Head: "I can't manipulate plant life and I'm so much weaker than Diamondhead usually is!"
(Stink Arms then grabbed a gator sign off of the burger shack and swatted the frog away with it, sending it crashing by Animo's feet, inadvertently sending him crashing by the faceplate as he witnessed the crab grow Stinkfly's eye stalks and wings with a curious glance.)
Animo: "Well, well."
(he said as he picked up the faceplate.)
Animo: "What do we have here?"
(He then spotted the twins nearby as he smirked and got onto his frog with a glare.)
Animo: "Let's go!"
(The frog hopped away as she glared with its master in tow, disappearing into the swamp.)
Ben: "That's right! You'd better run!"
(Ben shouted.)
Gwen: "So, Ben, why did you turn into some freaky alien combo platter?"
(Gwen asked.)
(Ben looked at the Omnitrix and saw that it was sparking out energy again and the faceplate was missing.)
Gwen: "What did you do to the watch?!"
Ben: "It's no biggie."
(Ben reassured.)
Ben: "It goes right back on. Now, where'd it go?"
(They then started looking around the mud and dirt.)
Ben: "It was right here. I saw it just before Dr. Animo and Froggie hopped out of... oh no."
