Vreedle, Vreedle is the sixth episode of season 3 of Ben 10: Alien Force.
Plot
While Julie is playing with Ship, the Vreedle Brothers attack them. Julie signals Ben, who arrives as Jetray. He is prepared to finish them with Humungousaur, but is forced to use Echo Echo instead due to the Omnitrix malfunctioning. They find out about the Court Order to "repossess" Ship, so Ben and Kevin go to the planet Coda Coda to get rid of the order. While Ben and Kevin talked about Julie and Gwen, Julie and Gwen talked about Ben and Kevin. Ben and Kevin soon discover that Baz-El (Ship's owner) wants Ship back. Judge Domstol recognizes Kevin and appears to lean the court in Baz-El's favor, but Ben decides to use his status as hero to get an edge. He changes into Humungousaur to get close to the judge, and leans on the desk, but his weight ends up collapsing it. In the end, Domstol makes the court rule in favor of Ben Tennyson, and apologizes for wasting the Omnitrix wielder's time on such a menial affair. They then hurry back home, with Baz-El asking if he could get a ride.
The High Court
Meanwhile, Julie and Gwen are still being attacked by the Vreedle Brothers. Ship changes into a battle suit for Julie. In the end, the Vreedles trap Gwen and Julie, but Ben and Kevin arrived in time, with Baz-El. After Rhomboid Vreedle blasts Baz-El when he hears that the brothers won't be getting paid, Ben uses Goop to defeat them and when Baz-El regenerates he gives Ship to a delighted Julie. The four look at the damage they had caused at Mr. Smoothy and Ben wonders when Mr. Smoothy will start selling smoothies. Then Ben thinks that Julie is putting a huge strain on their relationship, but Kevin says that Ship is just a dog.
