Plot[]
This section needs expansion. You can help by adding information. |
While Ben as Spidermonkey is escaping from Sunder the Retriever, Sunder's Energy Axe strikes the Omnitrix, teleporting Ben to the Null Void and leaving his Omnitrix hand on Earth.
As Ben is running from a Wigzelian Org Beast, his hand attempts to find Julie but is caught by a dog instead. The dog's owners take the Omnitrix away and accidentally transforms him into Big Chill. Big Chill freezes the Vulpimancers that are chasing him, but they escape. He then transforms into Swampfire and forces them to retreat with fire blasts. However, the dog's owners are scared away by the blast. Ben then transforms into Jetray to find Max's old Null Void camp. However, his Jetray hand grabs Julie's leg, causing her to freak out and whack the arm repeatedly.
This causes Jetray to transform back into Ben and fall towards jagged rocks. He is saved by a Null Guardian, who proceeds to slobber on his head. Julie sees the hand and takes it to Gwen and Kevin. Sunder appears, but Gwen and Julie fight him off while Kevin tries to bring Ben back. Julie accidentally transforms Ben into Diamondhead, who brings down the bridge Ben is walking on. Ben makes it to Max's old hideout, but finds it overrun by Havoc Beasts. Kevin brings Ben back (without his left hand), but his hand is found by the Havoc Beasts and they use the Omnitrix. Ben transforms into Brainstorm, Humungousaur, and Echo Echo to fight Sunder.
Ben's hand reappears while Sunder is sent to the Null Void, who then ends up fighting a large Havoc Beast while the other Havoc Beasts cheer.

Cast[]
Continuity[]
- In the Null Void, Ben visits Max's old hideout, which he used during his time as the Wrench, first seen in Voided.
Allusions[]
- Ben's severed hand seemingly having a mind of its own is similar to Thing of the The Addams Family.
- The scene where Ben as Spidermonkey web slings across the city away from Sunder is very similar to the fight with Spider-Man and the Green Goblin in the Spider-Man series. The music in the scene is also similar to the Spider-Man theme.
Errors[]
- In a few shots, when Ben's hand is on its own, the Omnitrix dial faces the wrong way.
- When the unnamed boys activate the Omnitrix to transform Ben into Big Chill, they simply tap the faceplate rather than pressing it down. Ben was shown to attempt this in previous episodes, yet nothing worked.
- When Swampfire attacks the Vulpimancers, the leader doesn't have its back stripes.
- When Swampfire turns into Jetray, a transformation sequence is shown. The sequence shows Ben transforming, even though he was Swampfire when he transformed and did not revert to Ben between transformations.
- When Julie first shows Ben's hand to Gwen and Kevin, her tennis racket is in the middle of red unit it's lying on, but for the rest of the scene, its handle sticks over the edge of the unit.
- For a second, the Null Guardian's saliva is blue instead of green.
- When Gwen and Kevin argue about which alien to turn Ben into, Brainstorm, Echo Echo and Diamondhead's holograms face away from Julie.
- Julie doesn't recognize Humungousaur or Swampfire despite seeing Ben use both aliens in previous episodes.
- Diamondhead's jaw does not move when he yells.
- Diamondhead is able to shoot crystal shard projectiles from the cut area of his left arm even though his hand is on Earth.
- Before Diamondhead falls off the bridge, his voice is different.
- When Sunder jumps at Ben, part of his hair disappears. Also, Ben's white stripes are on the wrong shoulder.
- When Gwen and Julie come to hug Ben, Julie is the same height as Ben and Gwen.
- Brainstorm is able to shoot electricity from the cut area of his left arm, when it should come out of his pincer in the Null Void instead.
