(Our heroes are taking a tour in Voodoo Museum, being led by an old tour guide.)

Tour Guide: "...And behind this impenetrable glass is the recently discovered, and only known existing copy of the "Archamada Book of Spells"."

Tour Guide & Gwen: "It contains ancient witchcraft and rituals from the later sixteen hundreds."

Tour Guide: [Snidely, and to Gwen's disappointment.] "Maybe you should work here, dear." [Walks away with the other guests.]

Zack: [Comforts Gwen; whispering] "Don't let "mummy-face" get to you."

Ben: "Yeah, she's probably older than that spellbook."

(Ben imitates a mummy's pose and facial expression in their tomb, to Kelly, Zack and Gwen's laughter. The lighthearted moment is broken when rumbling begins, with everyone in the room soon lifting to the ceiling, seemingly magically.)

Max: [Grunts as he and his grandchildren reach the ceiling.] "Something tells me this isn't on the tour."

Kelly: "No offense, Mr. Tennyson. But what's your first clue?"

(Below them, a red swirling mist comes through the window. From it, two figures emerge in front of the book of spells. This was Hex and Charmcaster.)

Hex: "The Archamada book of Spells... All of its power shall soon be mine!"

Charmcaster: "We came all the way here for some dusty old book?"

Hex: "Insolent child! The book holds great power that you can't possibly imagine, now be silent. Fah-Me-Doof!"

(The glass of the case exploded with a bright flash of light. As Hex lifted the book with his magic to his hand, he released everyone from the ceiling causing the civilians to fall right as the Tennyson brothers nod at each other and went to transform.)

(During the fall, Ben was able to transform into XRL8 and Zack into Big Chill. Ben sped off to a large tapestry hanging from the wall and used it to catch the other tour guests while Zack caught Gwen, Max and Kelly, bringing them to the ground safely.)

XRL8: "Everyone out!"

Max: "Ben, Zack, be careful. You don't know what tricks he's got up his sleeves."

Kelly: "Yeah, something tells me that guy is going to be tricky to beat."

Big Chill: "Thanks for the heads up. We'll be careful. Now, go."

(As Max, Gwen and Kelly left, Ben and Zack face down against Hex and Charmcaster.)

XLR8: "Dude, you want a book, try a library."

Hex: "Bethi-Mordor-Natta!"

(Hex used his staff to send a torrent of flames into the large tapestry, setting it ablaze. But Zack quickly froze the flames with his Ice Breath. As Ben sped off to fight Hex, Zack noticed Charmcaster was trying to sneak away. He fazed through the wall and came up through the floor, directly in front of her.)

Big Chill: "And where do you think you're going?"

Charmcaster: "Anywhere that my uncle isn't."

Big Chill: "That's your uncle? I don't see the resemblance. What's your name? How old are you?"

Charmcaster: "My name is Charmcaster and I'm 12."

(The two hear a loud crash and see that Ben has defeated Hex already.)

Big Chill: "Good going, bro." [Back to Charmaster] "If you don't want to be with your uncle anymore, then you should come with us. We'll help you get away from them."
