(At said space center, a rather bulky scientist, Dr. Viktor, was giving a presentation for the upcoming launch of the Novan spacecraft.)
Dr. Viktor: "And my redesign of the propellant tanks will increase velocity on the twin solid rocket boosters, allowing for increased high altitude efficiency. The changes are already being implemented."
(As the overhead projector turned off in the auditorium, the scientists judged the presentation.)
???: "Very impressive Dr. Viktor."
(the flight director, Dr. Shueman said.)
Dr. Shueman: "But since you are new here, you should know that once a launch is scrapped, protocol dictates a thorough review before-"
Dr. Viktor: "Who are you to question my work?"
Dr. Shueman: "Well, I am the flight director of this mission for one thing."
(Dr. Shueman said.)
Dr. Viktor: "...Yes, of course."
(Dr. Viktor said before taking his leave.)
scientist: "Not exactly Mr. Personality, but he is brilliant."
(another scientist stood up by Dr. Shueman.)
scientist: "I can see why you hired him."
Dr. Shueman: "I thought you hired him."
(The Rust Bucket pulled up to the Kennedy Space Center nearby as they formulated the plan.)
Ben: "Okay, here's the plan."
(Ben said.)
Ben: "Me and Jen go in as Diamondhead, no wait, Four Arms, and get to the bottom of this purple lightning business."
Allison: "We're not sitting this out, Ben."
(Allison said.)
Allison: "You can't stop us."
Max: "Actually."
(Max said.)
Max: "I think I know someone who can get us inside with a little less commotion."
Jen: "Really?"
(Jen asked.)
Jen: "Who?"
Max: "No one special. Just an old friend."
(The group looked around at the pictures and cases on display with awe when Dr. Shueman showed up to attack them.)
Dr. Shueman: "Max Tennyson!"
(he said.)
Dr. Shueman: "What's it been, 40 years?"
Max: "Give or take."
(Max said as he shook his hand.)
Dr. Shueman: "Whatever happened to you? One day you were here, the next day you were gone. Had to give your little walk to Armstrong."
Ben: "Wait a minute. Armstrong?!"
(Ben asked.)
Jen: "As in Apollo 11's Neil Armstrong?!"
(Jen asked.)
Jen: "Grandpa, you were supposed to be the first man on the moon?"
Dr. Shueman: "Sure was."
(Dr. Shueman said.)
Dr. Shueman: "Does this guy look familiar?"
(They looked at the picture of a young Maxwell Tennyson garbed in a spacesuit and by a shuttle ready for launch.)
Dr. Shueman: "Best astronaut in the program."
Max: "A... different duty called."
Dr. Shueman: "So, what can I help you with, Max?"
Max: "Just playing tourist today."
(Max lied.)
Max: "I wanted to show the youngsters around the old stomping grounds."
(Ben and Jen looked around in awe at the pictures around them when they accidentally bumped into Dr. Viktor.)
Ben: "Sorry, sir."
(Ben said.)
(Dr. Viktor looked downwards towards the twins' wrists and they saw the Omnitrixes strapped to them and his eyes widened.)
Dr. Viktor: "You shouldn't be here."
(he said, turning to Dr. Shueman.)
Dr. Viktor: "You bring unauthorized visitors into a classified area? Get rid of them."
(As he walked away, the twins scoffed and rolled their eyes.)
Jen: "What's his problem?"
(Jen asked.)
Jen: "All we did was bump into him."
Dr. Shueman: "It's kind of a crazy day, Max, with the delay and all. Perhaps we should reschedule your tour."
(Dr. Shueman said.)
Dr. Shueman: "You remember the way out, right?"
(As Dr. Shueman left, Max turned to the kids and nodded as they activated their watches, changing into their super suits and walked off further into the center.)
Max: "So I never did wind up going into space with N.A.S.A."
(Max finished his story.)
Omni-Pink: "Bummer."
(Omni-Pink said, crossing her arms.)
Omni-Green: "Grandpa, don't you regret not end up being the first man on the moon?"
(Omni-Green asked.)
Max: "Not really. I just decided to take my leaps for mankind in other ways. Armstrong needed the attention more than I did."
(He then shushed the others as they saw a few employees walking away and ushered them towards a door.)
(He took out a hacking tool and used it to bypass the door's passcode, opening it.)
Max: "Plumber's standard issue."
(he explained as Matter Girl rolled her eyes.)
Matter Girl: "Is there anything that the Plumbers don't have?"
(she asked.)
(Max sat down at the recording desk and accessed the camera feed.)
Max: "N.A.S.A. records everything. Now let's see about that purple lightning."
(Meanwhile, the flight director walked up to Dr. Vitkor, who was working on something by the shuttle.)
Dr. Shueman: "Dr. Viktor, there you are. I need to speak with you about your credentials."
Dr. Vitkor: "Not now."
Dr. Shueman: "Dr. Viktor, I am your superior."
(Angered, Dr. Viktor turned to him with a glare.)
Dr. Viktor: "You have no idea how wrong you are."
(Suddenly, a bunch of bandages wrapped around the flight director, hoisting him up into the air as the mummy revealed himself and tossed the flight director away.)
(A growling sound was heard as the werewolf appeared and snarled outwards.)
Dr. Viktor: "Take care of those kids. I don't want anything to interfere with our plans."
(The werewolf nodded and jumped off of the scaffolding towards the team.)
Ben: "Ugh."
(Ben said.)
Ben: "Who would've thought TV could've been so boring?"
Jen: "I know, right?"
(Jen said as she felt her eyes start to grow heavy.)
Max: "These much be pre-launch images."
(Max said.)
Max: "We must be getting close to something."
(Ben shook his sister awake and walked away.)
Ben: "We're going for a walk, guys."
(he said as he and his sister plopped their helmets back on.)
Ben: "We'll try to investigate. If that purple lightning is here, then some monsters could be too."
(They then sneaked off and found the launch simulator.)
Omni-Pink: "Whoa."
(Omni-Pink said.)
Omni-Pink: "Mega merry-go-round."
(A growling sound was heard behind them and they gasped when they saw who approached them.)
Omni-Green: "The werewolf!"
(Omni-Green said as they saw the werewolf growl and pounced towards them.)
Omni-Pink: "I don't think so!"
(Omni-Pink shouted as she thrust her hands out, blasting the werewolf back with an energy blast before Omni-Green closed the door.)
(They then heard a massive crankling as the claws went right through the metal door and started to pry it open.)
Jen: "You've got to be kidding me."
(Jen said.)
(They then activated their Omnitrixes and slammed the cores down, transforming into...)
Blitzwolfer: "Blitzwolfer?"
(Jen asked as she wagged her tail.)
Snare-Oh: "Snare-Oh?"
(he asked as he looked himself over.)
(Snare-oh's eyes, and the gaps between his bandages, glowed green.)
(He had a black and gold pharaoh's head-dress.)
(Snare-oh also had black bracers and greaves and wore the Omnitrix symbol on his left shoulder.)
Snare-Oh: "Oh great."
(The werewolf burst through the door and growled and pounced towards Snare-Oh, causing him to hit the simulator's arm before Blitzwolfer howled outwards and tackled him towards the door.)
