Grandpa Max : We called ourselves The Plumbers. Officially we didn't exist. We were the guys who fixed the problems no one else could: extraterrestrial, extrasensory, extraordinary.
-
Ben Tennyson : [as emergency vehicles pass them] All right! Could be a chance for The Plumbers to go back to work.
Gwen Tennyson : [groans] You should start by unclogging that hairball from your brain, Mr. Plumber.
Ben Tennyson : Ah, you're just jealous 'cause you're not part of the family business.
Grandpa Max : There is no "family business." My hero days were over a long time ago.
Ben Tennyson : Well, mine are just getting started.
-
Grandpa Max : And then, kablamo, no more Vilgax. Or so I thought, until today.
Ben Tennyson : Whoa, you were a hero?
Grandpa Max : I was just a guy doing a job.
-
Gwen Tennyson : And you knew about the watch the whole time?
Grandpa Max : Not really. Just rumor and scuttlebutt. I was surprised as you guys when it turned up on Ben's wrist.
Gwen Tennyson : You always told us we could tell you anything, Grandpa. Guess you didn't feel the same.
-
Phil : You know, once a plumber always a plumber. Ever think about getting back in the game, Max? You know, relive the glory days.
Grandpa Max : No, thanks. I'm retired. And so are The Plumbers.
Phil : Yeah, thanks to you. Once you took Vilgax out of the picture, the work just seemed to dry up.
-
Ben Tennyson : I don't get it. How come you didn't tell Phil about the Omnitrix?
Grandpa Max : That's on a need-to-know basis only, Ben. The less people who know, the better.
Gwen Tennyson : Guess that's your answer to everything, isn't it, Grandpa?
-
Gwen Tennyson : [as Wildmutt tries to talk to a pair of Vulpamancers] What did you say?
Grandpa Max : Vulpamancers never were big on small talk, even with their own kind.
-
Grandpa Max : I'm sorry I had to keep my past a secret for so long. I should have known I could trust you guys.
Gwen Tennyson : It's okay.
Grandpa Max : And for what it's worth, Ben, you would have made a great Plumber. Both of you!
Gwen Tennyson : Hey, we're your grandkids. What do you expect?
-
Gwen Tennyson : What about Phil?
Grandpa Max : I think there's some things about this job we're better off not knowing.
