Under Wraps

Under Wraps is the thirty-fourth (34) episode of Ben 10.

Plot
In order to teach Ben and Gwen the value of hard work, Grandpa Max takes them to a farm. However, a farmhand tells Ben and Gwen of a mummy that had recently arrived in a flash of purple lightning, prompting their curiosity. The two of them find it digging for a strange stone, but it attacks them as soon as they see it. XLR8 fights it to no avail, but the mummy flees in the confusion. Grandpa Max discovers that the strange rock is an unstable chemical called "Corrodium," which causes severe mutation in earthly organisms. The Tennysons track the mummy down to a ice cream factory, but end up in danger when the mummy proves to be invincible. In the resulting struggle, the mummy touches the Omnitrix and inadvertently adds its DNA, allowing Ben to gain a new alien form; however, the Omnitrix decides to transform Ben into Upgrade instead. Upgrade merges with a liquid nitrogen containment tank and sprays the mummy with the chemical, effectively freezing it. The family then leaves the farm for fear of more manual labor.

Trivia

 * The trio's thirty third stop is South Carolina.
 * When the Omnitrix absorbs the mummys DNA you can see the Ghostfreak icon even though he escaped in the previous season. This is probably because it was detecting Ghostfreak's DNA but did not absorb it because there was no more.
 * It is revealed Ben's favorite ice Cream is made by Digby Dairy.
 * This is the second event of the Ghostfreak saga
 * In Itunes, the title of this episode is Underwraps.
