A Way Big Problem

A Way Big Problem is the 23rd episode of Ben 10: Unlocked.

Plot
A huge cosmic storm concerns a planet as it is nearing them and so they send a group of aliens in a spaceship to investigate the storm. The spaceship, however, disappears as it entered the storm and the transmission was lost. Ben was later sent there along with Drake and Robert to find what's happening, and see if they can get back the aliens caught by the storm.

As it turns out, the storm is caused by a huge gas alien named Lac'qui, who absorbed a lot of energy and created a storm near the aliens' planet. Lac'qui created a cosmic storm to make a To'kustar that will serve as his minion, in case the planet/s he approaches don't cooperate into giving him energy for his own purposes and rule their planet.

As Ben and the gang find out that an alien is causing the storm, and that Lac'qui took the aliens sent to monitor it, the To'kustar is being born all the while. While they managed to rescue the aliens from Lac'qui, the To'kustar meanwhile had already been born, and tries to attack them. Ben had learned about the fact that To'kustars are big but really gentle creatures, and wonders why Lac'qui has him under his control. So Ben tries to convince the To'kustar to not let him be controlled by Lac'qui and be on his own. When Ben convinces him, Lac'qui attacks them. Unable to be defeated physically even by the To'kustar (he was not punchable for he was a gas alien), Ben scans Lac'qui using the Ultimatrix (it was a risk because he has to turn human, since he didn't have a suit worn at the time, he had to scan him fast and transform immediately). It was successful, but it took Ben a while to defeat him. Later, he managed to stop Lac'qui by "freezing" him with Ultimate Big Chill, so he can't control his molecules to do something.
