Viktor: The Spoils

Viktor: The Spoils is the 23rd episode of Ben 10: Ultimate Alien, and it's the third episode of the second season.

Plot
In an ancient castle, in a scientific lab, an old hag tells her master, Prince Gyula, not unleash an ancient power they have taken. The hag tries to tell Prince Gyula to go the peaceful way, but the prince and his father, King Xarion, want to see this power, but it is revealed to be the frozen body of Dr. Vicktor.

The prince thinks of freeing Dr. Vicktor of his icy prison to help them against the rebels in their civil war, but the king tries to persuade his son to not release him. Meanwhile, the gang is flying through the forest in Kevin's jet, in order to help King Xarion against the rebels in the civil war. When they are attacked by some missiles, Ben tries to become Jetray, but becomes Echo Echo instead. When the missiles are flying at the jet, Ben becomes Ultimate Echo Echo and destroys the rest of the missiles. However, they are attacked by the prince and their soldiers, until the king stops them. The king explains that the prince had changed ever since his mother's passing, and blames him for his mother's death. In order to get past the security that goes to Dr. Vicktor's chamber, Ben uses Big Chill to phase through the lasers and shut them down. When they find Dr. Vicktor's corpse, they are found by the soldiers and commence fighting them. However, Dr. Vicktor's ice block begins to melt, and Ben tries his best to keep him frozen, but Dr. Vicktor breaks free.

The Prince reveals that Dr. Vicktor is under his control, to do only his bidding. While trying to fight Dr. Vicktor and the Zarcovian soldiers at the same time, Gwen and Kevin get knocked out, and Ben becomes Ultimate Big Chill, but the Prince gets Dr. Vicktor to defeat Ben, and imprison the gang and King Xarion. Gwen manages to free the king, but he takes Ben (who is still unconscious) for an experiment and leaves Gwen and Kevin to be imprisoned. He conducts an experiment on a-still-unconscious Ben, Dr. Vicktor, and himself all at once and uses Ben's Ultimatrix for the experiment.

After sampling through Chromastone, Wildmutt, and Goop, he finally settles on AmpFibian, who uses his incredible electricity-controlling-and-manipulating capabilities to begin the experiment. But the prince interferes in order to stop his father from taking control of Dr. Vicktor, and ends up seemingly killing him in the process. The Prince says he's King now but the King's mind has been transferred to Dr. Vicktor's body.

The King has renamed himself King Vicktor and starts hurting his son to test his power. The King plans to use Dr. Vicktor's power to stop the rebels. He releases his son as a last act of mercy, and starts decimating the rebel groups, but is attacked by Heatblast. Gwen and Kevin join the battle, and they fight King Vicktor. They trap him by melting a tank and using Gwen's power to immobilize him to a statue, with part of his face still free. The prince and his soldiers take King Vicktor back, as the king's mind is still inside King Vicktor's body. The prince decides to hang King Vicktor and use his soldiers to fight the rebels, but Ben takes the prince's device that controls his soldiers and sets them all free so that they can choose their own sides in the Civil War. When King Vicktor swears vengeance, the team leaves.

Trivia

 * Oddly enough, there's a mission in GTA: Vice City Stories named To Vicktor: The Spoils.
 * When Echo Echo say "Oh No", it sounds the way he said it in Absolute Power: Part 2.
 * This is the first time Dr. Vicktor has made a re-appearance since the original series.
 * Dr. Vicktor is the third villain from the original series to reappear in Ultimate Alien.
 * This is the third time Wildmutt is seen in Ultimate Alien. In the order of appearances: Fame (on T.V. only), The Forge of Creation (Used by 10 year-old Ben) and this one.
 * This is the second time in Ultimate Alien that Ben turns into Heatblast. Although the first time he turned into Heatblast was in Forge of Creation by 10 year old Ben.
 * This is the second time Ben turns into Echo Echo instead of Jetray. The first time was Ben 10: Alien Force in Trade-Off.
 * Heatblast is one of the only two aliens shown thus far with yellow eyes (the another is NRG).Coincidentally, both are fire-based aliens.
 * It is revealed that after Kevin absorbed Dr. Vicktor's power when he was suffering from his third mutation, he sent him to the Null Void, but somehow Vicktor escaped and was frozen sometime after.
 * The king of Zarkovia seems to figure out how to work the Ultimatrix, as he was able to shift Ben through different forms for his experiment with Dr. Vicktor.
 * A running gag in this episode is with Kevin requesting they get a teleporter pod in order to get traveling easier.
 * Dr. Viktor's electrical powers used to be purple. Now they are blue. That is exactly what happened with Ghostfreak too. His powers were purple, now they're blue. Coincidentaly in the original series Dr. Vicktor and Ghostfreak worked together, and now the same changes have been made to them. This might have almost happened with Gwen, but her's are pink instead of purple
 * This is the first episode with two aliens making a re-appearance, Wildmutt and Heatblast. But they do not say their name. This is probably because Wildmutt was unconscious at the time (and can't speak to begin with), and the fact that Heatblast was an off-screen transformation.
 * This episode makes numerous references to the movies involving the Frankenstein monster: the monster being restrained via being frozen in a block of ice, a hunch back assistant, transferring the mind of another into the monster, a large desolate castle where the monster was brought to life, displaying it as a intellegent being and finally the equipment seen in the castle throughout the episode.
 * In the original series, Dr. Vicktor had a mechanical left eye and right arm. In this episode, both are organic.
 * On IMDB, this episode is called "The Return of Dr. Viktor."
 * Heatblast in Ultimate Alien series looks just like Alan Albright, but more muscular cause Ben's older. The Ultimatrix symbol is on his chest, and Alan's Plumber's badge is on his chest too.
 * This episode features the first reference to a religious belief - Hell, on the show: Gyula mentions "the fiery pit" he hopes his father's spirit resides in after his death.
 * It is the third episode where an alien Omnitrix's return and a villain in the original series, in this episode back Heatblast and Dr. Vicktor. First is in Vengeance of Vilgax: Part 2 and the second is in Ghost Town.
