Plot
Kevin runs off with Grandpa Max's RV in hopes of trading for alien technology he intended to give to Ben. In the process he temporarily betrays Gwen and Ben's trust. Having been told that Vulkanus is in possession of the alien device he seeks, Kevin tries to make a deal. Still bitter, Vulkanus has Kevin absorb a rare alien crystal called Taedenite, planning to use him as a living gem mine.

Trivia

 * In this episode, it is shown that Vulkanus is a tiny creature in a robot body. But in the original series, Vulkanus wore a suit that showed several patches of skin, indicating that his body was full-size and real. Something must have happened to his orginal body during his 5 year absence to the gang.
 * This marks the third time the Rust Bucket is stolen. The first times are in the Ben 10 episode, Ben 4 Good Buddy and short, Hijacked.
 * Echo Echo used a move called "Wall of sound" in this episode which is also an unlockable move in Vilgax Attacks.
 * Argit mentions Octagon in this episode.
 * We learn that Kevin had a connection with Vulkanus in this episode: They made a scandal a few years ago, but when the Plumbers arrived, Kevin left Vulkanus with the merchandise and escaped, causing Vulkanus to be arrested and wanting revenge on Kevin.
 * This episode shows Kevin does want to change as he left Kevin with the Tadenite fortune as payment for his action on the scandal.
 * This could be the only episode where Argit showed his powers.
