* JustAKid: Vilgax reacts this way when he unmasks the one wearing the Omnitrix as a 10 year old boy, and says that, in hindsight, it makes sense because the watch was being used as a toy instead of a weapon of mass destruction (according to him anyway). He dismisses Ben for his feeble comprehension in regards the watch's capabilities, but is taken by surprise when he recognizes the boy's grandfather as an old nemesis.
