    Max is Grandfather to Ben and Gwen. He has taken the kids on a summer road trip across the country. It is during this time that Ben finds the Omnitrix. Max helps Ben and Gwen come into their powers while trying to hid the fact that he fought Aliens, instead of being a real Plumber.  In an early episode one of Max's old partners, turned up and was fighting aliens. Many of the aliens Max (grandpa) started recognizing as ones they had previously captured and placed in the Null Void Projector. As the episode progressed it was revealed (shocker) that Grandpa’s old partner Phil was using the Null Void Projector to release the aliens so that he could fight them again to regain his importance. He had hoped Max would join him, but Max choose to side with his family.

    Throughout the episodes Max has shown his worth with both his intelligence and his abilities to their “team” of alien fighters.
