(We open in outer space. A massive brown ship is attacking a much smaller teal ship, somewhere out near Jupiter. Inside the large ship:)

Robotic Lieutenant: "Hull damage: 20 percent, weapons system's still operational."

Vilgax: "I have come too far to be denied. The Omnitrix and The Ultimatrix shall be mine, and there is not a being in the galaxy that dares stand in my way!"

(Meanwhile, on Earth, we see two boys in class. One boy being Zack, who is reading a book, and Ben, who is crafting a paper airplane. Zack sees this and decides not to intervene. Ben the proceeds to throw it at the back of his teacher's head. Teacher looks back at Ben, who is poorly pretending to read his book, smooshing his face in between the pages. The teacher then looks at Zack, who is just pointing at Ben, which made the teacher sigh with annoyance that Ben did it again.)

(A couple of hours later, Ben is intensely watching the clock, waiting for the school bell to ring.)

Ben: "Come on, come on."

Zack: "It's just a few more minutes, Ben. Relax."

Teacher: "And I just want to remind you all that I will be teaching summer school this year, and it's not too late to sign up!"

Ben: "Yeah, right." [The school bell rings.] "Yes! Outta here! C'mon, Zack!"

Teacher: "Everyone, have a good vacation, and I hope to see you all again in the fall."

(As the students left the class, Zack and Ben walks towards the classroom door.)

Teacher: "Benjamin, could I have a word with you before you go?" [She holds up Ben's paper airplane.]

Zack: "Good luck, Ben. I'll be waiting out."

(Ben huffs and walks over to the teacher's desk.)

(Meanwhile, outside. Cash Murray and J.T. backs Jamie to a tree)

Cash: "Normally, we'd take your money and beat you up. But since it's the last day of school, we're going to give you a break. Now fork over the cash, so we can get out of here."

Ben: "Leave him alone!"

(The three boys turn to see Ben standing there with Zack leaning against the tree by his side.)

Zack: "It's the beginning of summer and here you two go bullying a kid for his money. How low can you guys be?"

J.T.: "Get lost, shrimps."

Ben: "I said, back off!"

Cash: "Oh, looks like we got us a hero. Suppose we don't wanna back off?"

J.T.: "What are ya gonna do about it, Tennyson?"

Cash: "The same goes for you, Zack?"

Zack: [smirks] "Oh, you'll found out."

(The four kids glare at one another intently, then Ben makes the first by running towards them triumphantly.)

(Ben and Jamie hung up on a tree branch by their underwear, as a squirrel squeaks and scarpers off. Meanwhile, Zack was standing and looking down over the unconscious bodies of Cash and J.T. on the ground.)

Jamie: [sarcastically] "Thanks a lot."

Ben: "I was just trying to help." [He looks at Zack] "And how come you're not up here!"

Zack: "Because I took karate lessons from your cousin, Gwen. That's why I'm not up there. You should try it sometime, it would help you gain some height more."
