The heat must be frying that pea-sized brain of yours.(Ben complains about the heat)Ben: (referring to the heat) Seriously, why do old people have to live where it's so hot?

This whole place is way creepier than I thought. First, this old lady runs up a wall and then munches a fly. Then Marty, that weird next-door neighbor, is an E.T. or something with a face in the back of his head and these long, sticky arms, and this body that oozed right through this gate, and-Gwen: Ben, you snuck out. Aunt Vera was hurt.Ben: Eh, she's old. She'll forget. Ok. I say I go Four Arms, and we check out Marty's apartment.Max: Well, maybe we should do some investigating, but you stay as you are.

I'll be in the guest room if you need me.Ben: But, grandpa-Max: There's nothing more we can do tonight. I'm going for an early walk in the morning, but once I'm back, we'll check things out again.

(mutters) That's scary, I'm starting to speak mutt.(Wildmutt brings Gwen to his back and jumps into the trapdoor)Gwen: Whoa! (after the landing) Does the expression "look before you leap" mean anything to you? (sees people(Limaxes) coming down) Move it!(Inside a cave full of tunnels)Gwen: These tunnels must go under the whole complex.(Max(Limax) attacks but Wildmutt caught him) Aah!(Wildmutt raises his paws to finish Max(Limax)Max: You wouldn't want to hurt old Grandpa Max, now, would you?(Wildmutt hesitates and Max(Limax) retaliates)Gwen: (hops on Wildmutt's back) Hey, short, dumb, and hairy. Rule one, he's not grandpa. He's an alien freak. And that leads to rule two, which is 'We kick alien butt'.(Wildmutt finishes Max(Limax) and senses something)Gwen: What? (Wildmutt starts to run) Whoa! You don't come with seat belts! Remember? (looks at a wall in front) Look out!(Wildmutt reverts to Ben after crashing through a wall)Gwen: Hey, freak show, what do I look like, a crash-test dummy?Ben: (looking at the cave) Listen.

They've been marinating long enough.Max: Marinating?Gwen: (finds Aunt Vera in pod) They've got Aunt Vera.(Ben activates the Omnitrix)Ben: You guys really burn me up. (transforms to Heatblast; Limaxes steps back)Heatblast: ...now I'm going to return the favor.(Heatblast shoots fire at Limaxes but notices his mistake)Huge Limax: Whatever you are, you just made a terrible mistake. Us limaxes live for the heat. (becomes a huge Limax) Why do you think we came to the desert in the summer?(Gwen figures out that Limaxes hate water)Gwen: (gasps) They hate water! (to Heatblast) Aunt Vera when she was in the kitchen!Heatblast: Or, Marty when I was on the golf cart. (finds an underground water pipe and destroys it to spray water at Huge Limax) See you, slime ball.(Gwen and Max save all of the people in the ship)Max: Sorry. There's no dry-thru service here.(Limaxes leave the planet; Max looks at the pods)Max: We should put them all back in their condos, so they'll think they never left.Gwen: That could take hours.Heatblast: Give me a few minutes. I'll see if XLR8 can help out.(Before leaving the community)Aunt Vera: Don't be strangers.Max: We won't.Gwen: Bye, Aunt Vera.Aunt Vera: Bye, dear. Oh, this is for the road. (gives Gwen Gelatin Mold) Ben told me how much you liked my Gelatin Mold. This one's lime with chunks of grouper and chickpeas.Gwen: (awkwardly) Uh, thanks.(Aunt Vera to Ben)Aunt Vera: I'm sorry, Ben, if there wasn't enough excitement here for you. I hope you weren't bored to tears.Ben: Actually, it turned out better than I thought.Aunt Vera: I'm glad. Well, have fun on the road.Ben: (hugs Aunt Vera) I will. (goes to the RV)Aunt Vera: Oh, and Ben, keep up the good work dealing with all those aliens you were telling me about.Ben: (nervously) You're...kidding, right?Aunt Vera: (laughs) Of course, dear.
