Ben finally manages to rid himself of Skurd... just when he needs the Slimebiote most. Vilgax and Albedo team up to steal Malware's calcified husk to convert into a war armor for Vilgax to defeat Ben. As Ben fights Vilgax, he realizes how much he needs Skurd to help him, while Azmuth and the Galvans (Luhley, Blukic and Driba) fight Albedo. Azmuth uses a device he made years ago which disables Albedo's Ultimatrix and frees Skurd, in time to merge with Ben and defeat Vilgax. Ben thanks Skurd for his rescue, while Luhley decides to go on a date with Driba, while having her cousin date Blukic. In space, Vilgax's stone form oozes out what appears to be a reconstituted Malware.

In an alternate future timeline, Ben 10,000 and Kai Green (at this point in time, Kai Tennyson) are at Plumbers' Headquarters having a party for Grandpa Max because he is retiring from the Plumbers and Rook is being promoted to be in charge of the Plumbers until Maltruant, Exo-Skull and Subdora secretly attacks Plumbers' Headquarters to get the Annihilaarg and the Dwarf Star for Maltruant to become more strong. Ben 10,000 and Kai Tennyson both discover that their ally Chrono Spanner is actually their own ten-year-old son, Kenneth Tennyson.
