Enoch and the Forever Knights return, putting Ben into a dream world where he's tricked into having the perfect day. However, his dream quickly turns into a nightmare. Will Ben find a way to escape this nightmare? Ben wakes up and find that the Omnitrix is acting weird. But after a few seconds, Gwen falls of the bed, and his grandpa cooks food that is actually delicious. Later, Ben sees a bus full of cheerleaders, but all of a sudden the tires pop. So Ben turns into Diamond Head. Vulkanus and Six Six appear out of nowhere. Ben later deals with them and fixes the tire. As soon as the bus starts to leave, Kai appears (as seen in "Benwolf").

Ben states that the day's going to be great. Later in the day, Ben and family go to a pizza and games restaurant and Ben wins every game, and is kissed by two girls on the cheek. After leaving the restaurant, a box of Sumo Slammer games falls out of a truck, and Ben says that he should send it back. But Max says play on. Once again, the watch acts weird again. Ben is playing the game, and Gwen and Max make snacks.

Ben is wondering why they're being so nice, but he says keep it up. Later, another Gwen and Max appear telling Ben that the nice clones were fakes. The nice Gwen and Max appear and fight the real ones. Later, the real Gwen and Max tell Ben about what happened. The RV and an SUV collide, and out comes Lt. Steel. He tells Ben that Gwen and Max are Limax working for Vilgax. As said Vilgax comes out his ship and fights Ben, but Ben turns into Four Arms.

Vilgax tries to put Ben into the Null-Void, but Ben sends Vilgax into the Null-Void. Steel says he should send Gwen and Max to the Null-Void, too, but Gwen reveals she's real. So Ben sends Steel's men in the void instead. Steel reveals himself to be Enoch. Ben and family are then sent to Ben's nightmare... school.

Ben finds Kevin and tries to go hero, but the Omnitrix is recharging. Ben and family escape Kevin, but JT and Cash appear, and give Max a wedgie, so Ben tries to go hero, but the Omnitrix turns him into Grey Matter. Grey Matter finds an exit, but he and family are captured by Enoch, Six Six, JT, Cash, and Kevin. Ben soon learns he can control his dream, so he turns himself into Ultra Ben and turns Max into Ultra Grandpa. Gwen is turned into Ultra Gwen, but with a rat head.

Ben fights Enoch long enough to escape the dream world. Ben turns into XLR8 to put Enoch into the dream world, but XLR8 turns back into Ben. Enoch finally removes the Omnitrix, but unfortunately Enoch was in the dream world all along, and Ben is still XLR8. Enoch's leader, the Forever King, gives up on Enoch and states that Enoch has failed him too many times.moreless

Great plot causing Ben's cleverness and self-awareness go above the charts.

Wow! This episode was awesome! At first, I didn't get it at all, but first, I remember that Ben saves cheerleaders from Sixsix and that big alien, forgot his name. Then they ate at Pizza and Play, as Ben finds a Sumo Slammer game that shouldn't be out for a year. As he plays, duplicate Gwens and Grandpas attack. Ben is taken and they explain about the whole Enoch thing, which is not believed by Ben. They are then attacked by Captain Steel who is actually Enoch. They end up in school where Kevin 11 and the two bullies attack. The bullies give Max an atomic wedgy:

lol! And then Ben turns into superhero and wins. Cleverly plotted, I might declare.moreless

  EDIT SHARE
- This is the final appearance of Enoch.
  EDIT SHARE
- It appears Ben still has a crush on Kai.

  EDIT SHARE
ALLUSIONS (4)
ADD ALLUSIONS
- What happens to Ben is very similar to what happens to the character Roxas from the video game Kingdom Hearts II: Both are captured and put into a dream world, and someone enters to try to break them out, Grandpa Max and Gwen in Ben's case, and Axel in Kingdom Hearts II.
  EDIT SHARE
- The Goonies
  The scene where the Tennysons find the computer in the dream world and must pass the test on it to continue bears similarity to the organ scene in the adventure film, The Goonies. In that a wrong answer collapses the floor underneath them and a right answer opens the door for the heroes to proceed all the while being chased by the villain.
  EDIT SHARE
- Episode: Plot
  The plot is a spoof off of the Codename: Kids Next Door episode, "Operation: U.T.O.P.I.A." where both Ben and Number 1 are:
  virtually living their perfect days;
  not figuring it out but do thanks to family and friends;
  figuring out that it's virtual, take advantage of it and manage to wake up from; Ben 10, surgical operation, and; Kids Next Door, a test on the Happy Headband.
  EDIT SHARE
- Pizza N. Play: Name and Appearance
  Pizza N. Play is a parody of the family pizza and game restaurant, Chuck E. Cheeses.
