Swamp in Florida.
Max exits the Rustbucket, with Gwen shortly behind, looking out into a frog-filled swamp somewhere in Florida.
Max: <Stretching> Aah! Looks like we beat the crowd!
Gwen looks out to see no sign of any social activity.
Gwen: Yeah... You sure we're in the right place, Grandpa?
Max: Tomorrow this place will be crawling with Gator-Fest fans!
Max wanders off while Gwen looks around, stepping off the RV into a muddy puddle, and finding it gross.
Gwen: Eugh!
Gwen sees something rustling in a bush and gulps before walking off. Wade and Hope come out as Wade was unbothered by the mud while Hope didn't want to step out.
Hope: there's no way I'm coming out there. It'll ruin my shoes.
Wade: don't you have magic?
Hope: doesn't mean I'll use it for everything. I'm still a woman who wants her shoes to be clean.
Wade: this is a swamp, you will have to come out here eventually.
Hope: no I don't.
Wade: yes you do.
Hope: not this time.
Wade: you asked for it. Rip!
Rip jumped out while knocking Hope out of the way which made her step out and get mud on her shoes.
Hope: ugh!
Wade: <chuckles while holding Rip> told you.
Hope: I will so get you back for that.
Ben leans against the RV, fiddling with the Omnitrix using a screwdriver, as Gwen rounds the corner.
Gwen: What are you doing?
Ben: Who knows how many more alien-hero-dudes are inside this thing? I just have to figure out how it works.
Gwen: You shouldn't mess around with that thing, Ben. You're just asking for trouble.
Ben: Just chill out. I know what I'm doing.
Gwen: That'd be a first.
Max: <Walking up to Ben and Gwen> Gwen's right, Ben. Now I want you to promise me you'll take it easy on the Omnitrix.
Ben: Okay, Grandpa.
Max: Now, don't stay up too late. Tomorrow's a big day. <Heading back in> Good night.
As he and Gwen leave, Ben doesn't listen and continues prying until he pulls the faceplate right off of the Omnitrix.
Ben: Yes!<Seeing the effect he's caused on the Omnitrix, its face rotating and sparks fly out> Oh, no!
Ben yells as a blinding light emanates from the Omnitrix. Ben sits on the floor rubbing the back of his head after the green flash.
Ben: <Looking at the watch> Aw, man! I am gonna get so busted if anybody sees this.
Ben walks over and grabs the faceplate, off of the seemingly scorched ground. Then Wade swipes it off his hand.
Ben: Wade!
Rip was kind of growling at Ben.
Wade: really, Ben, messing with the Omnitrix?
Ben: I just wanted to figure out how it works.
