At a federal prison, [[Jennifer Nocturne]] appears for a routine visit to [[Carl Nesmith]], who is now one of the prisoners. One of the guards asks to scan Jennifer, but she refuses and says she always gets to walk away easily at the airport, and so the guard lets her go. Another guard asks for her autograph. Then she enters the room, where she talks to Carl through a visitor window. Carl asks Jennifer if she brought what he told her. She says yes and places a disc-shaped bomb under the window. Jennifer then pretends to be angry at him and demands to get out of there immediately. After she gets into her limousine, the bomb explodes, freeing Carl. He then takes the keys from Jennifer's driver and they drive away, with Carl speaking of the return of Captain Nemesis.

Ben and Gwen track Jennifer and Nesmith to a motel, where Ben transforms into [[Goop]] to go under the door and let them in. They enter, but find that no one is inside. Ben and Gwen split up, where Gwen goes and asks the manager, while Ben stays behind. He finds a Captain Nemesis glove in a drawer, before he is suddenly attacked by Nesmith. They fight, and Ben kicks off Nesmith, claiming that he was trying to make it a fair fight but, "you've gone and ruined it" because Nesmith takes up a piece of wood. Ben transforms into [[Clockwork]], and uses his time-ray to age Nesmith's wood to dust. Jennifer then attacks Clockwork by surprise, shooting him in the arm with the Captain Nemesis glove that Ben had dropped. This breaks Clockwork's arm and causes him to shut down, allowing Nesmith and Jennifer to escape. Gwen finds Clockwork and manages to transform him back into Ben by hitting his Ultimatrix symbol. However, Ben's arm is now broken.

After he lifts her trailer home, Gwen asks Mrs. Nocturne questions about Jennifer, who reveals that Jennifer got on a talk show and dropped out of high school when she was 14, after which she never returned home, and that her father had never been seen by her.

Clockwork's debut by present Ben

Ben and Gwen track Jennifer and Nesmith to a motel, where Ben transforms into Goop to go under the door and let them in. They enter, but find that no one is inside. Ben and Gwen split up, where Gwen goes and asks the manager, while Ben stays behind. He finds a Captain Nemesis glove in a drawer, before he is suddenly attacked by Nesmith. They fight, and Ben kicks off Nesmith, claiming that he was trying to make it a fair fight but, "you've gone and ruined it" because Nesmith takes up a piece of wood. Ben transforms into Clockwork and uses his time-ray to age Nesmith's wood to dust. Jennifer then attacks Clockwork by surprise, shooting him in the arm with the Captain Nemesis glove that Ben had dropped. This breaks Clockwork's arm and causes him to shut down, allowing Nesmith and Jennifer to escape. Gwen finds Clockwork and manages to transform him back into Ben by hitting his Ultimatrix symbol. However, Ben's arm is now broken.

Meanwhile, Jennifer (who has cut her hair and dyed it black so no one would recognize her), and Nesmith go to a veterinarian called Dr. Pervis to perform plastic surgery to get Nesmith's face changed so that no one would recognize him as Captain Nemesis.
