Forever Knight breaks into a Japanese samurai museum tour and steals a katana only to get caught by Shock Rock. He battled Ben over the katana only to get his helmet damaged and knocked over the horizon by Humungousaur. The Knight appeared to be smiling at the exact moment Humungousaur threw him off far away with his tail, possibly showing that he was trying to see if Ben was worthy of being recruited. When recapping events to Gwen and Max, Ben discovers that the Knight stole a reproduction of the katana and was merely testing him.
=== Welcome to Zombozo-Zone! ===
Zombozo tried to impress Forever Knight in hopes of joining up with him. While Zombozo's "parlor tricks" were of no use to him, he was more intrigued with Gwen's attempt in snapping Four Arms out of the mind-control. The Knight remarks that Zombozo was never a king as the latter is arrested, suggesting that he has no intention of bringing Zombozo into his team.

Forever Knight offered to help LaGrange by giving him a remote that would prevent Ben from transforming into XLR8. He also orchestrated a race in the desert in which the victor would become the next member of his team. Although the remote was destroyed and LaGrange was defeated by Slapback, the Knight was able to instead recruit Vin Ethanol in the racer's place.
=== Heads of the Family ===
While his head is on Kevin's body, Ben receives a phone call from Forever Knight, instructing him to report back. Pretending to be Kevin, Ben tells him that he is hanging with his family. Forever Knight then replies that without him, he (i.e. Kevin) has no one.

=== Roundabout: Part 2 ===
Ben immediately turns on Forever Knight out of not wanting the Knight to prevent the Omnitrix from making its way to Earth. Forever Knight overpowers Ben while fighting him in Ancient Egypt, Renaissance Italy, and Max and Phil's youth. However, Forever Knight's plan ultimately fails due to interference from Gwen (who followed them to help Ben) and Kevin (who is interested in payback for the Knight neglecting him). Pursing the children through a time portal leading towards the present, Kevin sacrifices himself to trap the Knight. The Knight's helmet comes out of the still-open time portal.
=== Cosplay Day ===
Forever Knight's helmet is recovered by a mask saleswoman and put for sale as a cosplay convention. The helmet actually contains Forever Knight's consciousness. In his parasitic helmet form, Forever Knight attempted to locate a new "host". After a few run-ins with Gwen and Max, he commandeers Steve and uses his influence as a judge to abruptly end the competition and force everyone to go home to cover his getaway. Omni-Kix Cannonbolt finally recognizes the Knight's helmet as the genuine article and chases after Steve until the helmet holds Max hostage. Fortunately, Omni-Kix Cannonbolt and Gwen are able to save their grandfather and trap the helmet, who is then taken away for inspection by Phil.
==Aftermath==
Kevin would later escape from the portal in The Monsters in Your Head and the Forever Knight would be later defeated once and for all in Cosplay Day, as well as get caught by Phil to study.
