High above the Earth, Vilgax's ship, The Chimerian Hammer, floats through space. Its hangar opens up and two UFO drones are ejected and sent to earth. A basic servant drone monitors them and speaks to Vilgax, who is recovering in his healing tank.

Servant Drone: The drones have launched. Equipped with the improved internal tracking system, they should be able to find and retrieve the Omnitrix and Omega1trix.

Squid Alien: *labored* They may find it, but retrieving it will not be easy. Whoever possesses the Omnitrix and Omega1trix continues to be an opponent of extreme danger and inspiring brilliance.

Meanwhile on Earth, Ben walks through a gas station store. His stomach rumbles, While Dax is outside helping Max clean up the rust bucket.

Ben: Man, I'm starved!

He notices a stacked pyramid of cookie boxes next to him. As he picks one from it, the rest of the pyramid loses balance and falls over on Gwen. She pops out of the cookie box pile.

Gwen: "Smooth move, Tennyson."

The two exit the store and walk towards Grandpa and Dax washing the back window of the Rust Bucket. Someone had written "Wash me! " in the window's dust with their fingers.

Max: Huh...Nice artwork, Ben.

Ben: You know, make a statement.

Suddenly, a heavy-looking truck at the gas station gets hit by a laser, blowing it open and causing a fire.

Dax: No, THAT'S a statement!

The blast that shot the truck came from a gang of 3 vigilantes, all wearing full biker outfits and wielding laser rifles. They advance on the scene and notice the team.

Gang Leader: What are you looking at?

The Biker aims their energy rifle at the quartet and fires, luckily Max pushes the kids out of the way before the shot hits them

Ben: Gotta get Grandpa out of there!

Dax: And stop them!

The gang members grab bags of money from the hole in the truck, but a rumble soon catches their attention: Four Arms and Armodrillo are there. They both pound the ground, sending a shockwave that knocks the gang over.

Four Arms & Armodrillo: *To Gwen and Max* Go!

Gwen helps Max and the two-run for cover. Just then, the driver of the blasted truck gets out, holding his head.

Four Arms: You okay?

The driver sees Four Arms & Armodrillo, is terrified, and runs away yelling.

Four Arms: Hmm, What's his problem?

Armodrillo: Because he just Saw a humanoid freak in a robot...

Distracted, The aliens get blasted back into the gas station by the gang leader. They fire a second time, and Four Arms & Armodrillo manages to dodge under it, but it instead hits a gas tank, exploding in a big fire.
