This episode wasn't really as good as I thought it would be. After watching the episodes with Vilgax as the main villain, I had assumed that this one would either meet those standards, or overpass them. I was sorely disappointed. One thing I loved about this episode though was the end when Ben sees all the villains that came to fight. It actually sent chills down my spine! XD A funny part was when Ben and Gwen were fighting and picking on each other when they were trying to talk Cooper into letting them get the extra ticket to the show they wanted to see so badly XD My review of this episode will continue in the other part =Dmoreless

The Forever King sets his plan in motion and recruits 10 of the most powerful enemies left that Ben has ever faced in order to achieve his greatest goal. Will Ben be able to fight off all ten of them, or will they finally take their revenge? The Tennysons pick up the grandson of another Plumber named Cooper, who is hitching a ride home with them. Meanwhile, a Plumber base at Fort Knox is robbed by the Circus Freaks and Sublimino. By the time the Tennysons find out, they are too late to help. They soon learn of a second robbery, this one run by Rojo (having gained a new cybernetic suit), Animo, Clancy (mutated into an insect), and Charmcaster. Max discovers that they are searching for the keys to the "Sub Energy", an extremely potent sub-atomic power source given to the Plumbers by an alien race. they lose the keys to the villains, and attempt to route them at the Mount Rushmore base, where the Sub Energy is stored. However, they find that the Forever King, joined by a subordinate and the villains that raided the earlier bases, has beaten them to it. He dubs his team the Negative 10 and sets them upon the Tennysons.moreless

FILTER BY TYPE

TRIVIA (7)
ADD TRIVIA
- When Max pulls down the screen showing the locations of all the plumbers' bases, it doesn't show any of them being in South Dakota, despite it being the location of Mt. Rushmore.
  EDIT SHARE
- Look Hard: When the Omnitrix gives it's warning beep, the red beeping isn't seen but heard.
  EDIT SHARE
- Look Closely: When Rojo cuts the main cable, Diamond Head's eyes are green and round, similar to Tetrax's.
  EDIT SHARE
- Pay Attention: When Cooper mentions his grandfather telling him about the spellbook, he is pointing at Ben; the same goes for the Omnitrix and Gwen.
  EDIT SHARE
- Pay Attention: Ben remains as Diamond Head, it seems, a lot longer than 10 minutes in this episode.
  EDIT SHARE
- Cooper said that his grandfather told him about the Omnitrix and Gwen's spellbook. But what would Gwen's spellbook have anything to do with aliens or the Plumbers?
  EDIT SHARE
- Think Back: Gwen and Max refer to the Forever King, Clancy and Rojo by name, despite never learning their names in their debut episodes. They also did this with Hex in "Tough Luck," Enoch and the Forever Knights in "Ultimate Weapon", Tetrax in Ben 10: Secret of the Omnitrix, and Cash and JT in "The Unnaturals".

  EDIT SHARE
- Gwen: That's Clancy!
  Diamond Head: The bug guy? I thought he was gone for good!
  EDIT SHARE
- XLR8: Okay, let me get this straight. The circus freaks break into the biggest bank in the world, but forget to steal any of the gold?
  EDIT SHARE
- Joey/Rojo: You're still alive? You're making me look bad.
  EDIT SHARE
- Cooper: In other words I'm pretty good with computers and stuff like that.
  Gwen: (presenting to Cooper her laptop) Then you'll love this. It's the new XT900 with satellite uphook. Use it whenever you like.
  Ben: (slamming down the laptop) Not fair, that's bribery!
  Gwen: (pulling out one whole bucket of stuff) Oh, and what do you call this?
  Ben: Gwen, I'm not selfish as you are, some of us enjoy sharing.
  Gwen: I'm telling Grandpa!
  Ben: About what? You're a big doofus?
  Grandpa Max: Ben, get up here.
  Gwen: Ooo, busted!
  Grandpa Max: You too, Gwen.
  (Gwen gasps)
  EDIT SHARE
- Grandpa Max: Hi guys, this is Cooper, the grandson of an old Plumber buddy of mine, and...
  (Gwen and Ben were fighting over the handphone)
  Gwen: Doofus! Give me it! You're wasting time!
  Ben: I heard it first, I get to call!
  EDIT SHARE
- Forever King: Behold, the Negative 10!
  Ben: Oh, man. (sounds scared)
  EDIT SHARE
- Gwen: Charmcaster? Is there anyone in on this who DOESN'T hate us?
  EDIT SHARE
- XLR8: I don't want to hurt you guys. (the hypnotized guards shoot at him) Guess the feeling's not mutual.
  EDIT SHARE
- Cooper: (about the Hypnotized Guards) Why'd they shoot at us? We're the good guys!
  Gwen: Yeah, we get that a lot.
  EDIT SHARE
- Grandpa Max: Maybe Cooper should stay here.
  Ben: Don't worry, Grandpa, I'll look after him. He probably wants to see the Omnitrix in action anyway.
  EDIT SHARE
- Stinkfly: Now you see me, now you don't.

  EDIT SHARE
- Sublimino has no dialogue in both parts of the episodes.
  EDIT SHARE
- Final appearance of every enemy in the show except Vilgax and Dr. Animo.
  EDIT SHARE
- Final appearance of Stinkfly.
  EDIT SHARE
- This episode airs in the US with both part one and two in a special one hour premiere.
  EDIT SHARE
- This episode is kind of in reference to the Ben 10 game Ben 10: Protector of Earth, where in the game, Ben faces every (almost every) enemy he has.
  EDIT SHARE
- Animo calls Ben by his full name (Benjamin) for the first time.
  EDIT SHARE
- It seems this episode happened before "Goodbye and Good Riddance", seen as it is still summer, and Ben is still traveling with Max and Gwen.
  EDIT SHARE
- The Forever King's Negative 10 consists of himself, a ninja from the Forever Knights, Sublimino, Clancy (now mutated into an insect-like form), Rojo (in a new armor), Charmcaster, Dr. Animo, and the Circus Freaks (Thumbskull, Frightwig, and Acid Breath).
  EDIT SHARE
- Alien Form(s) Used:
  1) Stinkfly
  2) XLR8
  3) Diamond Head
  EDIT SHARE
- Charmcaster appears in this episode without Hex, who she is supposed to be babysitting.
  EDIT SHARE
- Second appearances of the Forever King ("Perfect Day"), Sublimino ("Midnight Madness"), Clancy ("Side Effects"), and Rojo ("The Alliance"). Sixth (seventh if you count "Goodbye and Good Riddance") appearance of Animo ("Washington B.C.", "Dr. Animo and the Mutant Ray", "Ben 10,000", Ben 10: Secret of the Omnitrix, and "Divided We Stand"), fourth appearance of Charmcaster ("Tough Luck", "A Change of Face", and "Don't Drink the Water"), and third appearance of the Circus Freaks ("Last Laugh" and "Ghostfreaked Out").

ALLUSIONS (3)
ADD ALLUSIONS
- Camp Opinicon
  The camp Cooper gets picked up from appears to be Camp Opinicon from "Camp Fear."
  EDIT SHARE
- The Negative 10
  The Forever King's plan to unite a handful of villains to get what he wants, is similar to the main plot line of the fifth season of Teen Titans.
  EDIT SHARE
- The Forever King: I find your lack of faith disturbing.
  Reference to Darth Vader's line in A New Hope.
