1'''As a Moments subpage, all spoilers are unmarked [[Administrivia/SpoilersOff as per policy.]] Administrivia/YouHaveBeenWarned.'''
2----
3* Everytime Kevin's Car gets thrashed, this becomes a RunningGag in the franchise.
4* "Ben 10 Returns":
5** Ben disguised as a [=DNAlien=]
6---> "I owe you a call!"
7** Kevin stealing from a Forever Knight castle. Cue Ben with a DisapprovingLook:
8--->'''Ben:''' Maybe you should have brought a shopping cart?
9* Most of the discussions with the Galvanic Mechamorph in "Pier Pressure"
10--> '''Baz-El:''' And you wonder why most aliens only communicate with your livestock.
11* In the episode "The Gauntlet". When Ben, Gwen and J.T. found Kevin laying on the ground [[MakesSenseInContext after getting beaten up by Cash.]] Ben still being oblivious at the situation asked Kevin.
12-->'''Ben:''' Hold on a minute, Cash did this to you? \
13'''Kevin:''' (''frowns at Ben, unamused by what he just said'')
14** The ending of "The Gauntlet". Gwen says she has forgotten something. Ben says it's probably nothing. Cut to the factory. Kevin's still there.
15** Also, the fight Cash vs Chromastone. Cash shoots at him, only for the ray to phase through Chromastone without harming him. He shoots a bigger ray, and Chromastone just sends it back at him. Infuriated, he grabs the alien by the leg, and proceeds to what seems a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown... only for Chromastone to [[NoSell get up a few minutes later with absolutely no scratch.]] (Also crosses into SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome.)
16** "[[Series/{{Seinfeld}} No juice for you!]]"
17** After Ben stands up to Cash on how his bullying is no longer as good as when they were kids, Gwen states that she's proud of his cousin for taking the high path. Then this is interrupted by Kevin.
18-->'''Kevin:''' I would've decked him.
19** J.T. tries to have a heartwarming comment of the group getting together some time after freeing Cash from the titular gauntlet. Thanks to Gwen saying Ben and J.T. used to eat paste in the first grade earlier in the episode, J.T.'s method of rekindling friendship is to say they should eat paste again some time. Ben's left [[BigWhat completely confused.]]
20* "Paradox":
21** Paradox's response to his assistant Hugo -- who was turned into that creature that unleashed RapidAging --when they have opened a portal of the very fabric of time.
22--->'''Hugo''': Doctor, I... I am frightened.\
23'''Parodox''': ''[pulls out a bag]'' Have a gumball, it will calm your nerves.
24** Ben trying to dissuade a rapidly aged Kevin from driving:
25--->'''Ben''': You're nearsighted, arthritic, your reflexes are shot... [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking and you're trying to unlock a cactus.]] ''(pans out to reveal the "car" is indeed a cactus)''.
26** From the same episode:
27--->'''Paradox:''' [[ShoutOut I walk in eternity]].\
28'''Old Kevin:''' Well, you better start running in eternity! Smart guy.\
29'''Paradox:''' Hmmm, [[ComicallyMissingThePoint you might slow us down.]]
30** For being eons old, Paradox never lost his sense of humor.
31--->'''Paradox:''' A question like that is best saved for the Man on the Moon.\
32'''Ben:''' Okay, who's the Man on the Moon?\
33'''Paradox''': I am! ''(instant scene change)''\
34'''Ben''': [[CaptainObvious We're on the moon.]]\
35'''Paradox:''' No, we're on the moon in your distant future.\
36'''Kevin:''' What?! [[LampshadeHanging How are we not suffocating?]]\
37'''Paradox:''' An excellent question, though hardly the point.
38** When the trio first encounter Paradox, both Ben and Gwen asked pretty straightforward questions. While Kevin's first question is
39--->'''Kevin:''' Can you fix my car?
40** Later, when Paradox gifts Kevin a new car that's an exact model and paint job of his old one, the note he leaves warns Kevin not to let it come into contact with anything that precedes its original time, [[BlackComedyBurst lest it explodes]]. Kevin is hopeful that it's just a time-traveler joke, but that's left up in the air.
41*** WordOfGod eventually confirmed that was in fact just a joke.
42* From "Darkstar Rising": [[ShoutOut "Badges? We don't need no stinkin' badges!"]]
43** Ben and Kevin's reaction to seeing the horridly-aged Morningstar is an uncharacteristically girly "Eeww!"
44* From "Alone Together" Ben's total disregard for Reinrassic III, a direct descendant of the Pure Blooded High Order of Rarsect, who he simply addresses as "Reiny". Much to Reinrassic's continued displeasure.
45** When attacked by the local giant worms, Ben advises running, but Reiny is less than cooperative.
46--->'''Reiny:''' You cannot order me mongrel. Lesser beings do ''my'' bidding! (''the worm starts coming after them'') And I bid you to fight!\
47'''Ben/Big Chill:''' [[DeadpanSnarker Oh, alright then. If you say so.]]
48** When night arrives, Ben and Reiny start quarreling over what to do, with Ben wanting to stay camping for the night, while Reiny wants to keep going since the cold of the night helped him recover. Unable to agree, they are about to go their separate ways... when a sinister-sounding howl from some dangerous local creature is heard.
49--->'''Reiny''': [[OnSecondThought ...We should stay here for the night.]]
50** During their campfire, Ben introduces himself to Reiny as "Ben, Ben Tennyson". Reiny spends all the rest of the episode, plus his following appearances, referring to him as Ben-Ben Tennyson.
51* The ending of "[[Recap/Ben10AlienForceS2E03GoodCopyBadCopy Good Copy, Bad Copy]]": "BRING ME CHILLI FRIES!"
52** When Albedo is complaining about how uncomfortable it is being stuck in a cloned Ben body is, he notes that he keeps wanting to scratch himself "in places I suspect are inappropriate". The trio's eyes widen in response, Ben's reaction in particular being priceless.
53* From "[[Recap/Ben10AlienForceS2E04SaveTheLastDance Save the Last Dance]]": Kevin attempting to a tie a bow-tie, FAILING, and Ben fixing it: "Well, don't you look dapper?"
54** Kevin's exasperated reaction to what [[MonsterIsAMommy Big Chill]] was doing all along, contrasting nicely against Julie and Gwen falling to CutenessProximity over the baby Necrofriggians.
55** Just the very fact that Ben ''gets pregnant and gives birth''. Several times later Kevin brings this up and it seems Ben will [[OnceDoneNeverForgotten never forget]] how he ended up playing MisterSeahorse.
56** The scene where Julie follows Ben in his transformed Big Chill state (at his own request) and perkily takes notes about his odd behavior. The next day, her [[UnusuallyUninterestingSight matter-of-fact recital of her notes about what Ben did]] is equally funny.
57--> '''Julie''': Ate drive-in stalls, ate giant metal burger, ate giant metal statue eating giant metal burger, ate a bus, ate a car-wash sign, ate the car wash...
58---> '''Ben''': Wow. You take great notes.
59* In the episode "[[Recap/Ben10AlienForceS2E05undercover Undercover]]": Ben riding piggy-back on Kevin. Also, the plan using Kevin made of alien metal that emanates alien-defeating noise when it vibrates (thanks to Gwen hitting Kevin, ''really hard'') and Ben as Echo Echo amplifying the sound. Something about this strategy is insanely funny. It must be Kevin losing his ability to walk as Gwen keeps hitting him. Made even better by Cooper's fanboying over Gwen and comparing her to a princess that saved him from the Cave of Despair in an MMORPG.
60* From "[[Recap/Ben10AlienForceS2E06PetProject Pet Project]]": According to Kevin, Ship = "Cup of Instant Weapon" and "everyone shoots at us."
61** Julie giggling when Ship is in Hyper Drive. The girl seems WAY too into the weird stuff given she is usually saying stuff is 'fun' when she is using weapons or with Ship in his Battle Suit form.
62* "[[Recap/Ben10AlienForceS2E07Grounded Grounded]]":
63** Ben's BigWhat when he got grounded is downright priceless. It's not often you see Echo Echo being overly expressive, be it physically and/or emotionally.
64** "You can't ground me! I'm a super-powered alien!"
65** When forbidding Ben communication with the outside world, his mother lists various ways including "[[Website/{{Myspace}} My]][[Website/{{Facebook}} Facing]] anyone". Ben's confused reaction to "[=MyFace=]" indicates that this isn't an example of BlandNameProduct, just an out-of-touch parent.
66* Azmuth using a [=DNAlien=] Cure Gun. That is all.
67* Ben's {{Squee}} [[https://youtu.be/7lfqZmPkbvM in the Season 3 premiere]]. Apparently, he's not over Sumo Slammers.
68** And from the looks of it, neither is ''Kevin''. While he and Gwen are having a difficult time fighting a villain, Ben finally shows up to help in the form of Cannonbolt, which leads to this.
69--->'''Kevin:''' About time you got here!\
70'''Cannonbolt:''' There’s going to be a Sumo Slammers movie.\
71'''Kevin:''' (''excited'') [[NotSoAboveItAll Really? Live Action?]]
72* While it unfortunately ends up [[GoneHorriblyWrong going horribly wrong]] (especially for Kevin), the attempt to hack the Omnitrix in the Season 3 opener does give us this funny bit.
73-->'''Gwen:''' I don’t think this is such a good idea.\
74'''Kevin:''' Relax. I’ve been, uh, ''acquiring'' stuff we need to fix the Omnitrix for months.\
75'''Ben:''' (''smirking'') ''[[ContinuityNod Years]]'' [[ContinuityNod if you count back to]] [[OnceDoneNeverForgotten when you were trying to steal it from me.]]\
76'''Kevin:''' (''smiles'') Let it go, Ben…
77* More in Season 3, especially due to Ben being turned into a CloudCuckooLander.
78* In "[[Recap/Ben10AlienForceS3E04FoolsGold Fool's Gold]]", when the team races for the little alien who grew giant and primal after eating meat, they are warned that meat makes them poop Uranium-1417 (to quote Kevin, "Unstable radioactive poop?!"). No sooner than they go after it, Kevin inadvertently steps on the radioactive dung and ''bounces'' through the cornfield by way of always landing on the explosive crap.
79* In "[[Recap/Ben10AlienForceS3E05Simple Simple]]", while Ben and Gwen try to stop an alien war, Kevin spends the whole episode profiteering. In the end, when everything goes south, he's forced to drop his ill-gotten gains in order to get away. He... doesn't take it well.
80-->'''Gwen:''' (thinking he's reacting to everything going badly): You're crying? Aww... you do have a heart.\
81'''Kevin:''' ([[ManlyTears through sobs]]) Yeah, that's what poor people have instead of money.
82* The judge's resolution over who gets custody of Ship in "[[Recap/Ben10AlienForceS3E06DontFearTheRepoVreedleVreedle Vreedle, Vreedle]]''. Even after Humungousaur breaks his workbench, he still decides the case in his favor, just because he shouldn't tire himself over these trivial needs.
83** The Highbreed bailiff's freakout over the insult of his species.
84---> '''Baz-El:''' And while the Highbreed may be foul, smelly, evil overlords...\
85'''Highbreed Baliff:''' [[YouKnowImBlackRight Hey! Objection!]]\
86'''Judge:''' (timidly) Sustained.
87** [[AttentionDeficitOohShiny Gwen distracting the Vreedle Brothers with... Bubblewrap.]]
88** The Vreedle Brothers giving their manda to Julie (which is written in an alien language):
89--->'''Julie:''' ... I can't read this.\
90'''Octagon:''' Neither can we.
91* Kevin's opinion of Vilgax [[EnemyMine begging Ben for his help]] in "[[Recap/Ben10AlienForceS3E10GhostTown Ghost Town]]'':
92-->'''Kevin:''' This couldn't be a more obvious trap if there was a sign that said "Free Cookies!"\
93'''Ben:''' Probably, but [[ComicallyMissingThePoint I really like cookies.]]
94** During the same episode Ben orders Vilgax a kiddie meal from Burger Shack.
95* Charmcaster dealing with a brainwashed Kevin, who still manages to snark at her. For instance, she orders Kevin to bring Gwen to her, then explains her (complex) plan of draining Gwen dry. Kevin has this to say:
96-->'''Kevin:''' ''(monotone)'' She probably won't show up when I tell her that.\
97'''Charmcaster:''' Don't ''tell'' her, you simpleton!\
98'''Kevin:''' ''(monotone)'' Hey, give me a break, my mind's a blank.
99* Rath and his debut episode, ''[[Recap/Ben10AlienForceS3E13ConOfRath Con of Rath]]'', hands down. He's like a hilarious send-up of a professional wrestler that addresses everyone by their full name while calling them out. Highlights include trying to remove the Omnitrix symbol and calling Vulcanus "Baby Man".
100-->'''Gwen:''' Someone needs a time out! *Gwen creates a force field around Rath's head*\
101'''Rath:''' *''struggles to remove the force field''* '''TIME OUT?! IT'S TIME FOR YOU TO LEARN THAT NOBODY CAN BEAT ME AT—''' Did I just use up all my air? *falls unconscious, with tongue hanging out*
102** Oddly enough we get this funny moment later in the episode.
103-->'''Gwen to Rath (who is about to go into space to get onto an Incursian Warship):''' "You're going to need a spacesuit!"\
104'''Rath:''' "Whatever! *proceeds to go into space without the aforementioned suit*"
105** Along with Vulkanus, the trio encounter clones of Octagon and Rhomboid Vreedle, Argit, Incurseans…
106--->'''Kevin:''' This whole trip is like one of those dreams, where everyone you know is in it, and they all wanna hurt you!\
107'''Gwen:''' I don't have dreams like that.\
108'''Kevin:''' Oh. [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial Uh, me neither!]]
109** Rath starting to warm up to Tiffin, only to grab him and hide him behind his back when Gwen and Kevin look back.
110** Gwen mentions Argit would "sell his mother for lunch money." The result?
111--->'''Kevin:''' I happen to know he got top dollar for his mom.
112** The trio arrives to Jarret's throne room and see he's a colossal, obese king who lounges on his throne fanned by palm leaves while a loyal army of chef's wearing cartoonishly stereotypical chef outfits happily churn away cooking him meals. This, and how Jarett quickly puts the Tiffin on a pie, should immediately tip off a viewer what Jarett really wants with the poor baby. Jarett starts waxing about how lovely it is... and then devours the pie in one bite without even chewing, and sighs happily, rubbing his giant belly. Apparently the Tiffin tastes ''that'' good, even though it couldn't possibly fill him up.
113** The trio's response to Tiffin being eaten. The complete silence and "D:" faces were hilarious enough, but then Kevin ''[[{{Fainting}} faints]]''.
114** Rath's reaction as well; he jumps down the Pantophage ruler's throat to save the Tiffin, breaking Jarett's teeth on the way out. Jarett is too shocked to even put up that much of a fight before Rath forcibly holds his teeth open and hops down his throat, and then he's left writhing in pain with his belly twisting and turning as Rath fights his way down to rescue the baby, before he finally erupts from out of him. It even looks like he was about to rip out of his belly! Doubles as a SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome. And his line just before that?
115---> [[PunctuatedForEmphasis Eating... BABIES... IS NOT... COOL!!!!]]
116** And this is followed by:
117---> '''Jarett''': How dare you! [[WesternAnimation/BugsBunny Certainly, you realize that]] [[ThisMeansWar this means]] ''[[ThisMeansWar war]]''!\
118'''Rath:''' ''(gives Kevin the Tiffin)'' Hold this. ''(leaps onto Jarett's face)'' LEMME TELL YA SOMETHIN', JARETT OF PANTOPHAGE!!! I JUST JUMPED DOWN YOUR THROAT!!! YOU START A WAR WITH THE LEWODANS AND I'LL DO IT AGAIN!!! ONLY NEXT TIME, I'LL KNIT YOUR INTESTINES INTO A SWEATER!!!! ''(jumps off and begins petting the Tiffin before [[DeathGlare growling]] at Jarett, who flinches.)''
119** The fact that Jarett, for all his might as a powerful tyrant, is just as much of a weak wet blanket as many tyrants turn out to be. He bullies the Lewodans into giving up their crown prince for him to eat fairly regularly, but the moment he's confronted with a ''bigger'' bully in the form of Rath, he wisely decides to shut down and have a peace treaty. Jarett was willing to go to ''war'' over not getting a tiny snack, and he's just as willing to sue for peace once Rath scares him enough.
120** At the end of the episode, after the Tiffin left, Rath turns back into Ben, with Gwen guessing that the Tiffin was somehow responsible. Turns out, Kevin figured it out earlier.
121---> '''Ben:''' [[CouldHaveAvoidedThisPlot You knew?!]]\
122'''Kevin:''' Well, I wasn't sure exactly, but...\
123'''Ben:''' Kevin... Rath would like a word with you. *Transforms*\
124'''Rath:''' '''LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING, ''KEVIN E. LEVIN''!'''\
125'''Kevin:''' *squeaks* Please don't.
126* Even when the transformation is used by someone else, Rath never ceases to be funny, as shown when Azmuth transforms into Rath while fighting Vilgax in ''Primus'':
127--> '''Azmuth (as Rath):''' Let me tell you something, Vilgax, Conqueror of 10 Worlds! Azmuth will defeat you! Azmuth will hunt you down even though you're standing right here! ''[Cue Vilgax making a face that says YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe]'' You are no match for the awesomeness of Azmuth!
128** After Ben tricks Vilgax into leaving himself vulnerable so that Ben can take back the Omnitrix, he asks: "Who's the hero?" Gwen, Azmuth, and eventually even Kevin respond.
129---> (''begrudgingly'') You are.
130** During Ben and Vilgax's fight in in the same episode, Ben as Way Big uses an old schoolyard trick against Vilgax. And not just any schoolyard trick...
131---> ''[Way Big grabs Vilgax's fist and slams it into his head repeatedly]''\
132'''Way Big:''' {{Stop hitting yourself}}! Stop hitting yourself! [[RuleOfThree Stop hitting yourself!]]\
133'''Kevin:''' ''[chuckles]'' Classic.
134* From ''Vendetta'', Ben (as Rath) is fighting a group of Forever Knights. The [[Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail "Run away!"]] bit is funny enough. They meet Kevin, and make for another aisle, there to meet Gwen:
135-->'''Gwen:''' Lady or the Tiger, boys. Your choice. Okay, not really. *''BLAST''*
136** GeniusBonus Punning. [[Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer Buffy]] would be so proud.
137* In ''The Secret of Chromastone'', the episode opens with Gwen and Kevin racing at top speed while Ben is lying in the back seat, seemingly dying and saying he might not make it. Kevin rushes him to a nearby establishment at Gwen's direction...which turns out to be a ''Mr. Smoothy.'' Ben just has a cold.
138** Also Kevin threatening to blow up a truck with missiles [[DisproportionateRetribution for blocking his way]]. Road rage much?
139---> '''Gwen:''' Kevin! Anger management!
