Ben 10: Omniverse (2012–2014): Season 7, Episode 2 - Rook Tales - full transcript

Once again, the stone parts
and the young shoots emerge,

It is a dream come true,

attending Plumbers' Academy
and with your blessing, Father,

We,,,

I am proud of you,

This'll make it official,
Cadet Rook Shar,

[ gasps ]
Sheriff Wat-Senn, thank you

for escorting our daughter,
Oh, don't mention it,

Besides, I've got business on
Earth during our refueling stop,

Father, where's Young One?

He better not be off tinkering
with his harvester,



[ crowd murmuring ]

Master Kundo,
You honor us,

Kundo: And you disgrace
your people,

Your offspring
make a mockery of tradition,

Sending one child off-world
was bad enough, Now another?

Master, it is my decision,

Kundo: That is not our way!

Tell them how we feel about
those who destroy our ways,

who devise machines,
who disturb the heavens,

I-I wish to be a Plumber,
too, like my hero, Rook Blonko,

[ all cheer ]

All aboard!

Kundo: If your father will
not protect the order of things,

you will come with me,
Rook Shar,



She will do no such thing,

Go now, Get on the ship,

Father, please,

You know who he is,

Go!

Kundo: I do not wish to hurt
you, Rook Da,

I beg you to stand aside,

♪ Ben 10 he's a kid,
and he wants to have fun ♪

♪ But when you
need a superhero,
he gets the job done ♪

♪ Ben 10 with a device
that he wears on his arm ♪

♪ He can change his shape and
save the world from harm ♪

♪ When trouble's
taking place ♪

♪ He gets right in its face ♪

♪ Ben 10 ♪

♪ When lives
are on the line ♪

♪ It's hero time Ben 10 ♪

[ grunts ]
Ah!

Kundo: Your bones will heal,

Safe journey, daughter,

[ cows mooing ]

Ben: Rook, I get that
you're excited about
seeing your sister,

But did we really have to
show up three hours early?

Rook: Her stopover will
be brief,

I do not wish to miss it,

Ben: Well, I'm a busy man,

I've got things to do,
people to help,

Like,
Like,

Don't understand,
Like,

Hey, how'd Lucky Girl
get a fan page?

Do I need something like that?

[ snoring softly ]

My apologies, I have great
excitement for what lies ahead,

You got to pace yourself,
You're on a long trip
that's only just started,

Metaphorically speaking,
We'll be landing soon,

[ bang ]
Did you hear that?

It could be a stowaway,

That's probably
our luggage settling,

Or a stowaway,

Go investigate it, cadet,

[ banging ]

[ grunts ]

Young One!
You should not be here!

Oh, I've been off-world
before,

And in a faster ship than this,

[ ding ]
Uh, this is
your captain speaking,

How you doin'?
Prepare for landing,
[ sighs ]

Come along, brat,
Boo-yah!

I believe that is an Earth
expression!

[ cows mooing ]

Well, looky here,

My brother, the big

fancy-schmancy
Starliner capitan, Heh,

Too important to answer
my messages, Kyle?

They're all pictures of cats,
Toby,

Whoo! So now we are too

important for food posts,

Rook: Sister! May I be the
first to welcome you to --

Young One?
Frown all you wish,

I am back on Earth
with the famous Ben 10!

Ben: Hey, Rook Shar,
Nice badge,

Yes, Soon I will be
a Plumber and kick the butt
of alien lowlifes,

Max: Well, well, That can't
be Rickdan Wat-Senn, can it?

Don't tell me they let
spoodle-heels like you
land on Earth,

[ laughs ] Max, your cooking
hasn't killed you yet, huh?

Rook Shar, meet the man I came
to see, Max Tennyson,

We used to be rivals,

Max: [ chuckles ]
You wouldn't believe

how competitive we were,
back around

the time the Plumbers
went galactic,

You got a lot of nerve showing
up after the last time,

[ both chuckle ]

Ben: Why? what happened?

Ready for a rematch?

Ben: Fine,
Who wants smoothies?

This is the best day
of my life!

Ben: I'd go easy there,

[ slurping ]

Ah!
Oh,

Rook: You are experiencing a
condition known as brain freeze,

And it is awesome!

Awesome or not, you were
unwise to leave Revonnah,

What will mother say? You have
not even lost your b'inthak!

I am two years older
than Blonko was when
he had his parting, Ow!

Ben: Why get worked up?
You Revonnahganders all lose
your tails eventually, right?

But to not have
a name at my age?

Unthinkable! They will be
calling me "Old One" soon,

Ben: If it's bugging you,
I'll help you get it off,

Unthinkable!

Ben: Who's the Revonnahgander
with the stick?
Rook: Master Kundo!

He's the master
of Revonnah Kai,
our traditional fighting style,

Kundo: I am ashamed
to greet you, Rook Blonko,

This is a technological miasma,

Ben: No, it's a smoothie,

The master does not approve
of my leaving,

I believe he intends
to bring me home,

Kundo: Another one!

Does the shame of your family
have no end?

Both of you must return with me,

Ben: Wait, you're not gonna
listen to this kook, are you?

Rook: He is
a respected elder,

And yet,,,
[ grunts ]

Kundo: I am unaccustomed to
repeating myself,

Ben: That's enough,
Only one person here is leaving

this planet today -- you,

I am bound for the academy,

Ben: Two people leaving,
but in different directions,

Ah!

Hwah!
[ beeping ]

Ah!

Rook: Ah!

Rook: My proto-tool!

Kundo: Rook Blonko, you are

fortunate that I only wish to

return your siblings
to Revonnah,

[ tires screech ]
[ muffled music playing ]

[ grunts ]

Rook: We must leave,

Ben: I can take him,

Kundo: [ grunts ]

Ben: Probably,
Rook: I'd prefer to take my
brother and sister to safety,

Young One, drop the pieces
and hurry!

[ breathless ] No way, dude!

I suggest an Alpha-9
evasion tactic,

Ben: Here's a tactic,
Run real fast!

[ buzzer ]

Kundo: [ grunts ]

Technological trickery!

Ben: Your Master Whatsit --
he doesn't seem to like it here,

Rook: Kundo is decidedly
old-school,

Ben: Then he's gonna
love this,

[ horn blares ]

[ laughs ]

Kundo: [ grunts ]

[ horns blaring ]

[ beeping ]

[ horn blares ]

[ muffled music playing ]

[ horn honks ]

[ horn blares ]

[ tires screech ]

[ horn blaring ]

Enough!

Stonecutter!

[ car alarm blaring ]

Blukic: Hmm,,,

Driba: It's a conundrum,

Blukic: A puzzling conundrum,

Rook: Can the proto-tool
be repaired?

Driba: Absolutely,
Blukic: Not a chance,

both: Maybe,

Ben: Hmm, Interesting,
Can you get it off?

Ben: Absolutely,
Rook: Not a chance,

Driba: We'd need to map the
nanomolecular pathways first,

Blukic: A good bonding agent
is what we need,

Ben: Have you tried pulling
on it real hard?

Driba: I'm still trying
to identify the power source,
[ zap ]

Ben: We could slam it
in a door,

Blukic: There's your weak
spot, Right at that bony part,

Ben: Maybe if we tie
something heavy to it,

Blukic: Gravity? Hmm,

It would increase
the separation forces,

I wish to return
to the streets,
Kundo is a menace,

He traded blows with Father
in an attempt to stop me,

Rook: Shar, why did you
not speak of this?
Was father hurt?

He was struck down,

But he stood again,

Rook: You're staying here,
[ both gasp ]

Ben: Dude, a contraction?

Rook: Master Kundo
has crossed a line,

I admit I was reluctant
to confront my teacher,
but I am over it,

Ben: Well, if you're heading
out to kick some booty,
I'll be kicking it with you,

Let's go,

Rook: Ben, you remain
here with Rook Shar,
Watch her closely,

Ben: You sure you can
do this alone, unarmed?

Rook: Against Master Kundo,
nothing matters but
Revonnah Kai,

Ben: Now, let's take care
of that tail,

Why are you so anxious to lose
that thing? Seems kind of handy,

Once the parting occurs,
I may choose my name and
be considered an equal,

Until then, I am just a child,

Ben: Heh,
I know how you feel,

Took me forever to lose
my first baby tooth,

It's the exact same thing,
When you lost this baby

tooth, were you given access to
the halls of knowledge?

Was a Harvest Blade forged in
your honor?

Ben: Yes, Kinda,

I got a quarter,

Driba: It's settled,
We're alternating cryo-lasers
and radiation,

Blukic: Cover your eyes,

Ben: Guys, he came to me,

[ beeping ]

Terraspin: And I say let's
start with something less risky,

Ben: I have a new enemy,
And its name is --
what's the name again?

B'inthak,

Ben: B'inthak!

[ grunts ]

[ zapping ]

Blukic: Mmm,
Who wants mango?

Do you get many dangerous
assignments?

H-have you ever been
in a star-ship battle?

Do we have to pay
for our uniforms?

What is in there?

[ zapping ]

You always were competitive,

Max: You're the one who
wanted a tie breaker,

Ben: I already did that
like three times,

Blukic: Use some
Galvan elbow grease,

Driba: We should try
communicating with
the tail directly,

Mnh-mnh,

Cadet Rook, monitor duty is

the heart and soul
of our operation,

Dispatch, threat assessment, and

community relations
all start here,

I must go!
Hmm,

Kundo: I taught you
better than that,

Rook: [ grunts ] Yes,

Father was proud of
my Revonnah Kai skill,

[ grunts ]

Kundo: Living here among such

technological ease has
made you weak,

Rook: On Revonnah,
there are machines,

Frankly, your tradition seems
somewhat arbitrary,

Kundo: Aah!

Ha!

Kundo: Stonecutter!

Rook: Shar! No!

Blonko!

[ reel whirs ]
Max: [ grunting ]

[ grunts ]

Where are you taking us,
Master Kundo?!

Kundo: This chemical ship
will pass near Revonnah,

Its captain agreed to a detour
in exchange for a generous
supply of Amber Ogia,

You traded Amber Ogia with
off-worlders, and yet you wish
to speak for tradition,

Kundo: Do you see the
terrible dishonor that your

brother's worldliness
forces upon us?

Once I collect your Young One,
we will be on our way,

[ drill whirring ]
[ electricity crackling ]

It was a most
impressive effort,

My B'inthak is quite stubborn,

Ben: I'm not giving up,

Blukic: I am,

Get out of our lab!

Out! Out! Out!

Driba: [ sighs ]
That's telling them!

Hazmat teams,
cleanup on level 20,

Ben: Forget those two,
They wouldn't know a tail
from a proto-tool,

Hey, it's all in one piece,

[ beep ]
[ electricity crackles ]

It's still not working,

Perhaps my sister
will have a suggestion,

Ben: [ groans ]

Magister, have you seen
Rook Shar?

I'm supposed to keep an eye
on her,

She saw something
on a monitor and took off
like a Gracklflint,

Now, I've been ruminating on
what it could have been,

Did you search
the monitor spool?

No, no, no,
No, it'll come to me,

Master Kundo!

Who's that, now?

Ben: Looking for something?

Kundo: Yes, That child,
Get in the ship,

Your brother and sister
are waiting,

Ben: That's not gonna happen,

Get in the ship,

To find Rook and Shar,

I'll take care of Old-School,

Kundo: Many times I've heard
that humans are reckless,

[ beeping ]

Wildvine: Reckless? Not me!
[ grunts ]

I'm full of wreck!
[ gasps ]

Kundo: In ancient times, the

Revonnah Kai masters would break

rocks with their bare hands,

just as I will break you,

Wildvine: Sorry, dude,

Salad's off the menu!

Whoa!
[ grunts ]

Ben: So, you want to do this
the hard way,

[ beeping ]

Bloxx: See? That was hard,

[ beeping ]

Kickin' Hawk: Kickin' Hawk's
my best hand-to-hand fighter,,,

foot-to-head fighter,

[ grunting ]

Kundo: I see,

Kickin' Hawk : [ grunts ]

[ screeching ]

Hey! Hey!
Kundo: [ grunts ]

Kickin' Hawk : [ screeches ]

Ben: [ groans ]
How is he doing this?

Rook: You are fighting him
incorrectly, as was I,

Kundo: Incorrectly? I taught
you everything you know,

Rook: You taught me
everything you know,

But I am not in your
training hall anymore,

And neither are you,

Kundo: [ grunts ]

Rook: Since leaving home, I
have fought To'kustars and

Incurseans, Tetramands and
Ectonurites,

It was a mistake to forget that,

Compared to the battles I have

fought throughout the galaxy,

Revonnah Kai is small potatoes,

Kundo: What are potatoes?

Your travels have made you
formidable, Rook Blonko,

But that armor is ruined,

You will not survive
the Stonecutter,

Rook: [ gasps ]
Blonko, catch!

[ proto-tool whirs ]

Kundo: [ gasps ]

Aah!

Ben: Is he,,,gone?

Rook: I believe so,
That was depleted blastonium,

[ air horn blows ]
[ gasps ]

I will miss my flight!

Hey, sorry, sheriff, but,
uh, I got a schedule to keep,

Know what I mean?

Max: [ grunting ]

Ben: What are you doing?
Max: Tie breaker,

Sheriff, you should have
stopped the ship,

[ straining ] No, you should
have been here an hour ago,

I must matriculate at
the academy in three days,

Max: [ grunts ]

Rook can drop her off,

You take the boy home
in my skipper,

Rook: Yes, Magister,
Young One,

It is off!

Today I'm a Revonnahgander!

Boo-yah!
Boo-yah!

Booooo-yah!

[ grunts ]

Well?
Kundo: What have you
done to me?

Saved your life,
You should be thanking me,

Kundo: I am,,,
an abomination,

Rook: Young One, I do not

believe a Revonnahgander has

ever had his parting off-world,

Ben: Yeah, I'm pretty sure
I loosened it,

Unlikely, These things happen
in their own time,

Perhaps a little,
Ben: Eh, I wanted it
too much,

Your brother and I
will miss your B'inthakoid
ceremony on Revonnah,

Rook: Yes, We must revise our
traditions to suit the times,

By the fruit of Revonnah and the

stones of heaven, your childhood
is ended,

What name do you choose?

Henceforth, I will be known

as Rook,,,

Ben,

Ben: Aw!

Welcome, Rook Ben,
You are now our equal,

But forgive me if I continue
to call you "brat,"

[ both grunting ]

Max: Next time?

Yeah, Count on it,

Rook: Once I drop off Shar,
I will come to Revonnah and
look in on Father,

Roger that,

Good deal,

Max: Come on, Ben,
Come on, Ben,

Max: You know,
my grandpa was named Ben,

He'd be tickled to know that

there's a kid on another world

named after him,

Well, indirectly, anyway,

Ben: Want to get a smoothie?

Max: No,
Ben: Oh, man,
