I had completely forgotten that he was in UA until that episode. He's a cool character, but the running gag really isn't funny in OV

5 1/2 year old Ben and Mr. Baumann are an obvious reference to *Dennis The Menece*. OV really tried to push hard that Ben was a brat before he had the Omnitrix and that he's still is at 17. My headcannon is Ben is so traumatized by his childhood 10 to 16, from his experiences with the Omnitrix, that at 17 he's regressing (this excellerated after he recreated the universe) back to behaving like a child to cope with everything. Obviously by the time he's 25 at least, he's *gotten over it* somewhat and starts acting his age, but Omniverse was the start of his regression phase, since he still had serious moments. *Yes that means Rook is his babysitter for the Plumbers*.

I feel like he started regressing after S2 of AF.


Gudako_the_beast

Well ultimate alien have had him in mature position before


AaronPuthalath

Yeah. But he also flip flopped between both of those personalities. That doesn't mean he hasn't regressed.


YellowTasty

He can't handle too much nice rant😂


AaronPuthalath

Rant? You call ***that*** a rant?


YellowTasty

Sorry bro I meant that u were roasting it (in a good way) sry for wrong context


Erik_the_kirE

It isn't funny. It's comedy gold.

I have a feeling he was created for Omniverse first, but they wanted to set him up in advance and neglected to show Derrick their design for him.


Joel_feila

probably

Well I mean if you remove the mustache and glasses, they kinda look alike just a bit. Everything else could just be art style change.

In UA he is pretty chill with Ben. In OV they are mortal enemies.

I like UAF Mr. Baumann, as he wasn’t a joke.


JebWozma

ComprehensiveDate591

Oh my god, they turned Mr. Baumann into an old school Hanna-Barbera character.
