* How did Ben mistake Myaxx for Vilgax? I mean yeah, they're both the same species, with the tentacle face and all, and she was wearing a hood, but come on, [[HugeGuyTinyGirl Vilgax is what, twelve feet tall? Whereas Myaxx is human sized.]] Why couldn't Ben make that distinction?
** I was going to argue that Myaxx closely resembled Vilgax before his physical augmentation. Then I realized that Ben has never seen Vilgax looking like that, aside from a brief head-only dream sequence and a noncanon WhatIf episode. That only compounds the problem, doesn't it?
*** Ben is [[IdiotHero not noticeably bright]], particularly before the TimeSkip. He probably just saw green skin and facial tentacles and assumed the worst, not thinking it through sufficiently to notice the minor detail of size.
*** It might not be Ben's fault that he can't differentiate size very well. He's constantly changing into aliens that are both much bigger and much smaller than himself... it may have screwed with his ability to tell how big something should be "normally".
*** Ben had only seen one member of Vilgax's species before the event and considering how dangerous that one alien ''is'', one can forgive him for attacking before analyzing.
*** Myaxx was wearing a ''cloak'' at the time, likely having on other pieces of clothing, thus, the bulkiness of the outfit might be explained as her wearing a lot of clothes in this prison, besides, her body was ''very'' obscured, so, it might be a mistake, it might not, I don't know.
