 * What should the finale be? A two-hour made-for-television film or A limited event television series (miniseries)? (A final series is out of the question) I was thinking about a mini-series that would span up to ten episodes, but I think a lengthy, detailed two hour film sounds good enough.
 * What should the plot be? What questions or events would you want to have to be answered? What I imagine is that Ben is just beginning his life as Ben 10K. Basically, everything from the past series has led up to this. He's 20 years old, new aliens, Kevin and Gwen are on his side once more and Rook has begun his road to becoming magister of the Plumbers. He's not 30 yet, meaning he still maintains a personality similar to his teenage years, but he's also grown up. He's mature. He's actually gone forwards for once lol.  In this finale, many things get introduced that we've seen teased throughout the franchise. Perhaps Omnitrix City (a reconstructed/in construction Bellwood built for a community of humans and aliens after the exposure of Undertown)?  Being a finale to a four series franchise, this should be huge. It should capture the best of all the characters and the best of villains. I'll get into this more in a bit, but for villains, they should be ones who have never truly been dealt with. Similar to what Sif had in mind, it should be very personal. We've had our fun with Omniverse, but now we should be fitting back into a darker theme similar to AF. We need Ben to be pushed to his limits, mentally and physically. Not blood or gore kind of dark, but the kind where it highlights Ben's true character. Vilgax for a main villain at this point would be overkill, but there could still be ways to fit him in there. My reason is that I picture him as the enemy who almost molded Ben into the hero who he is. Once he's gone, who's left?
 * Who would be the main antagonist(s)? Original villain or old antagonist?  Again, someone who's never been truly dealt with. Someone who's story hasn't been finished. In my mind, a good villain to go back to would be Elena and the nanochips. She is probably one of the darkest villains in his rogues gallery as she clearly takes a huge toll on Ben. She wants revenge and to see Ben's world get crushed as in her mind he did to her. She's got a whole hive at her control, and she's actually pretty powerful considering what the nanochips can do. I'm imagining a war of Ben and his team versus Elena and a whole army of Forever Knights under her control (all the remants after the finale of UA, anyway). Elena's gone mad and that leaves Ben with the question of what he has to do to bring her down. Put down the queen, put down the hive. We could also see some other villains caught in the battlefield, forced to choose sides.
 * What would you want the plot to be? A huge story. Start out simple, and gradually make your way to a cataclysmic war.
 * What would you want to be retconned? I want to say a swap between Julie and Kai, but perhaps the best way to do that would be Kai leaving Ben somewhere in the middle and Julie coming back to him.
 * Would you want this to lead into the reboot in some way, shape or form? Storywise, no. By my point of view, it's like movie reboots. They aren't and shouldn't be connected. However, Paradox could hint at it, vaguely describing "one story ends, another story begins."
 * Would you want any characters to die? Perhaps Max. Throughout the franchise, Max was someone Ben could look up to and learn from. But in this finale, Ben is going to prove that he's ready to go on and be his own hero and he won't have Max to back him up. Ben hasn't really had that extra push besides his disappearance back in AF.
