* StoryBreakerPower: Kevin attempts to invoke this by suggesting that Ben turn into [[AttackOfThe50FootWhatever Way Big]] to win against Driscoll, but Ben shoots the idea down, wanting to fight on even ground with him.

-->'''Ben:''' Maybe you've forgotten something… I'm Ben Tennyson, wielder of the most powerful weapon in the universe. I stopped the Highbreed invasion, I defeated Vilgax in hand-to-hand combat and I've beaten the Forever Knights more times that I can count. Here's what's going to happen; you're going to release these prisoners, you're going to crawl back to wherever you came from and you're going to stop hunting down aliens. Because if you don't, I promise, [[ImpliedDeathThreat you'll regret it for the rest of your]] ''[[PunctuatedForEmphasis very. Short. Lives.]]''
* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler:Pierce]] is killed by the Forever Knights early in the episode.
