[edit] Plot
After leaving Ben waiting in line for the new sumo slammer game, Max and Gwen return to find Fourarms tearing up the street, and the special alien containment team (SACT), led by Lt. Steel, trying to catch him, and fail. Max and Gwen find Ben back at the RV and Gwen berates him, but Ben insists he doesn't know what they're talking about. He then sees a news report of the destruction, and resolves to clear his name. While looking for clues, Ben finds and chases the Fourarms imposter to the mint, where a Heatblast imposter is destroying everything. Gwen, still believing it's Ben, scolds him, and is saved from being fried by Ben as Diamondhead. While Gwen and Max get the civilans out of harms way, Diamondhead says that the imposter is giving aliens a bad name. The imposter then asks if he's going to tell his grandpa and cousin on him. Diamondhead asks "Who are you?", which prompts the imposter to switch between alien heads until it changes to Kevin. Kevin explains that he absorbed enough of the Omnitrix's energy (In "Kevin 11") to become any of the ten aliens, but he can only stay human for a short time. He then explains his plan to frame Ben, changes into Stinkfly, and leaves. SACT then arrives, and disbelieving Diamondhead's pleas of innocence, attack him. The Omnitrix starts to power down, which Ben uses to escape as a normal looking boy.
Back at the RV, Ben explains to Max and Gwen the situation, but an Upgrade-controlled tram rolls past. Ben resolves to fight fire with fire, saying "Anything he can Upgrade, I can Upgrade better!", but the Omnitrix turns him into Wildmutt. Wildmutt engages Kevin, but is unable to stop him escaping. But, with Max's help, he manages to stop the tram in time. When Ben returns to the RV, they are surronded by SACT, but are saved by a call about Kevin as Diamondhead attacking the Golden Gate bridge. Lt. Steel faces off against Kevin, and is badly beaten, but Fourarms shows up and diverts Kevin's attention. Kevin tosses Steel on to a suspension wire, and SACT prepares to blast Kevin and Fourarms, until Steel tells them to fire on his command only. Fourarms overpowers Kevin's Diamondhead form, and Kevin switches to Heatblast, but fares no better. Kevin then becomes Stinkfly, and has Fourarms on the ropes, until he changes back to human in midair. Fourarms then leaves, despite Kevin's attempt to keep fighting, saying that he wasn't worth it, and never was. Kevin then transforms into a mutant amalgamation of alien forms. He is dismayed to find out he can't change back, and attacks Fourarms, leaving him dangling over the edge of the bridge. Kevin states that Ben will never beat him, because good guys don't have the guts to finish guys like him off. Steel states that he does, and prompts his men to fire. The blast knocks Kevin into the bridge and into the river. SACT targets Four Arms, and asks for permission to fire. Steel says "We got our alien", and allows Fourarms to leave.
As the RV leaves the bridge, Steel asks why Ben, Max and Gwen are always around when aliens show up. Max replies that they hadn't noticed. Steel allows them to leave, saying they might meet again someday. Inside the RV, Ben and Gwen debate about whether or not Kevin survived. Ben states that he thought Kevin was gone for good the last time. The episode ends with a close-up on the river, showing bubbles on the surface.
