* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: As Kevin fights against Azmuth's security measures, he starts laying into Azmuth on how unfair his treatment of Ben is, given what he's accomplished over they years.
--> '''Kevin:''' Tennyson may have messed up the Ultimatrix, but he's put himself on the line again and again! He's risked his life a hundred job for people he didn't even know! For slobs like me, for jerks like you! He's a hero...and more importantly...he's my best friend.

Added DiffLines:

* HeroicSuicide: Ben's death is the only way to free the Ultimates from their prison, since his mind controls the Ultimatrix.
--> '''Ben''': There's only one way out of this. In order for the Ultimates to live... I have to die.
--> ''[Later]''
--> '''Gwen''': What's the plan?
--> '''Ben''': No plan. I don't know why they branched off and became individuals. But I know that they deserve to live free.
--> '''Gwen''': So do you!
--> '''Ben''': ''[kisses her forehead]'' Goodbye Gwen.


Added DiffLines:

* SurvivalThroughSelfSacrifice: Ben is ultimately spared after jumping into the fiery pit, and the Ultimates are still able to go free.
--> '''Ben''': What happened?
--> '''Azmuth''': Your sacrifice reset the Ultimatrix. The flaw that generated the self-actualized Ultimates has been corrected. Any Ultimates generated from this moment forth, will simply be reflections of you, as was always intended.
--> '''Ben''': But, I jumped into the pit. Why am I still alive? Not that I'm complaining, mind you.
--> '''Azmuth''': Your intention was what mattered to the Ultimatrix. The fact that you were willing to sacrifice everything in order to set them free. Genuine self sacrifice, more rare than astatine or francium.

** Once Gwen meets up with Ben as Way Big, Ben expresses surprise over Gwen's "glowing body". Which makes sense, given Ben was unconscious when it happened in [[Recap/Ben10AlienForceS2E13WarOfTheWorldsPart2 War of the Worlds Part 2]], and wasn't around [[Recap/Ben10UltimateAlienS1E03HimEmWhereTheyLive when Gwen used it to terrorize Zombozo]], meaning this truly is the first time he's seen her Anodite form.

* NegatedMomentOfAwesome: When captured by the Ultimates, Ben transforms into Ghostfreak for the first time since the ''Alien Force'' episode Ghost Town, and attempts to possess Ultimate Humungosaur. Unfortunately, it seems his possession abilities don't work inside the Ultimatrix, as Ghostfreak just harmlessly slams into him instead.

Ben actually tried to possess Ultimate Humongosaur, but the latter's dialouge makes it clear that Ghostfreak's ability to possess people won't work on any of them.

* AbusiveParents: Ultimate Humongosaur claims that his mother tried to eat him.
* CharacterWitness: Kevin tells Azmuth of the good Ben has done, including finding it within himself to forgive Kevin for his past misdeeds, to convince the Omnitrix creator to help in the current crisis. And when Azmuth sees that Ben was willing to sacrifice himself for the Ultimates, he’s willing to finally forgive Ben for damaging the Omnitrix.

* HeroicSacrifice: When learning the Ultimates intend to sacrifice him so they can be free, Ben willingly jumps into the flames. This allows the Ultimatrix to release all of them.
* LampshadeHanging: The creators were probably aware people would notice the Ghostfreak parallels with Ultimate Humongosaur, so we have Ben turn into Ghostfreak to battle the Ultimates.

* PutOnABus: Azmuth takes the Ultimates somewhere Ben assures them they will be comfortable and useful.

* WeAreNotGoingThroughThatAgain: Azmuth ends the episode by upgrading the Ultimatrix to remove the glitch that gave the Ultimate forms sentience.
